    Teddy's Bourbon Bar - Cheers to a Merry Christmas

    The bartenders are always top-notch and I enjoy the ambiance and seating possibilities…read more The 3-stars is for the ridiculous and frustrating restrictions on the drink details. They had holiday cocktails all featuring bourbon (of course). I prefer vodka so I asked if they had vodka. She said they have vanilla vodka for the holiday cocktails (with bourbon). I asked to leave off the bourbon and it's not allowed. I asked if I could have some vanilla vodka as my drink - that's not allowed because it's only for the cocktails. It felt strange to be told no over and over in a bar. We're sorta turned off now and not recommending it for a while. To be a happy place, give a little flexibility so the vodka folks can come in and have a drink with their bourbon buddies. Sigh.

    So disappointed. I'm from Texas and found this bar on accident last year and loved my first two…read morevisits to it. The last two visits, however, have been on Saturday nights at 8:30 and 9:30pm, well before closing time. Google and Apple Maps show this bar closes at 11pm on Saturday night. In February I went at 8:30 but the doors were locked. I saw people inside and figured maybe they were closing or having an event. Okay, I moved along to the brew spot a few doors down. Tonight, we tried again. Walked in at 9:30, the bar had about six people sitting at the bar, about three people behind the bar laughing/talking, and one or two people walking/standing near by. We walked up to the bar and before we could sit, someone behind the bar walked over mid laugh and said "so sorry, we're closed." There wasn't a sign on the door and again all maps said they close at 11. We triple checked. Teddy's is the only place nearby where I can get a good bourbon, so I'm sad that this has been the case twice now. Ontop of that, I recommended this place to a close friend who lives nearby, but when they walked in, they waited at the bar for 15 minutes and never received a greeting from any servers or bartenders. They told me it wasn't busy but the staff seemed to be enjoying a conversation at the end of the bar and did not acknowledge her. I could t believe it because the two times I've been, the service was amazing! However, given that there seems to be a shift in hours/priorities, maybe she wasn't exaggerating.

    The 243 Restaurant in Prattville was an amazing experience from start to finish. The service was…read moretruly top-notch -- our server kept the pink lemonade flowing, which we definitely appreciated during our late Saturday brunch. I ordered the French dip sandwich with au jus. At most restaurants, the au jus can be bland or forgettable, but this one was rich, full-bodied, and incredibly flavorful. It elevated the entire sandwich. My husband and sons each ordered the chicken and waffles, and not a single bite was left behind. Every piece was eaten -- which says everything. My only small criticism would be that the thick-cut fries could have used just a few more seconds in the fryer. Other than that, perfection. For four of us, the total came to around $80 before tax and tip -- an excellent value for the quality of food, service, atmosphere, and location. We will definitely be back.

    Wonderful Ambiance 9.5 Bar a little large Excellent…read moreservice 9.9 Food selection was challenging the appearance was okay but questionable.my Ribeye steak was something that looked as though they got it from Waffle House. Rather thin and rubbery. I requested it with Grilled onions and mushrooms I got a mound of Mush gravy spread over the steak (spread because it was a failed attempt at a Gravy). With raw onions in it. The menus were faintly printed in small script font the seating arrangement is a bit overcrowded as well. We had to move our TABLE for a gentleman in another party to sit at his table. We felt intruded throughout the remainder of our dinner. Their conversation was literally ours. 243 South definitely has the vision of the assignment to bring the next level dining experience to a small town. I encourage them to keep trying perhaps pay more attention to the customer comforts rather than the Bougie dispositions. and get your cooks lessons. C+
