    Chips and salsa
    Heather L.

    Last week Dad, Uncle Carl, and I tried out El Mezcal Mexican Grill in Cullman. The chips and salsa were definitely fresh. The chips were hot, light, and crunchy, and the salsa was very good. Dad and Carl each got a chicken chimichanga with the traditional sides of rice, beans, lettuce, pico de gallo, and sour cream. Pretty good, but average for around here. I went for the birria taco, and it did not disappoint. Very meaty and flavorful. I also got a beef tongue taco and a carnitas taco. Both were good, but the carnitas were phenomenal! I don't know how they packed that much flavor into the pork, but they did! I got a side of some sort of hot sauce unlike anywhere I've ever been. It was really spicy but SO good! Just in small doses. I will definitely go back and will probably just get the carnitas plate. I want a whole plate full of that! We had awesome service from Candy. The lunch dates were perfection. #HeatherEats

    Fried ice cream

    My son picked this place out. We would have never even seen it. I had the burrito el mezcal, my wife stayed true to the chimchanga, my son did the kid burger and curl fries aka fresn fries on the menu. We finished it all off with fried ice cream. We absolutely destroyed it! A+ Good Grub YumYum!

    The molcajete was awesome! It was a lot of food and very tasty! The rest of the family enjoyed their fajitas and chimichangas.

    The food just wasn't as good as we were led to believe from other Yelp reviews. The service was good and the place had a nice atmosphere.

    My fiancée and I came here Friday evening while we were in the middle of running errands; since we…read morewere both hungry. I pass by this restaurant whenever I'm driving to work, so I thought we would give it a try; even though I'm not a big seafood person. The wait time between getting our drinks and the food arriving was a little long, but it doesn't bother us when we go out to eat. Not a big deal. The food was absolutely delicious though! We got corn fritters as an appetizer. My fiancée got the shrimp and grits and I got the popcorn shrimp basket. Our waitress, Julia, was really nice and a friendly personality. :)

    We were there 4/24/26. The server Trey did not want to wait on us and made it clear. I don't know…read moreif it was because I'm visibly disabled or what. What's scary is this Trey stated he was a manager. There were issues the whole time with his attitude. (I will say my husband enjoyed his food) I tried to give upper management time to handle it - but it appears they do not care either. That same day I I gave feedback via the shrimp Basket app. Three days later I got an email from the area leader Mr Willmann asking to speak more and offering a free meal. I responded via email with my phone number and that I did not want a free meal - that as someone who has worked in restaurants I felt the situation needed to be addressed by management. Over a week passed with no word back from Mr Willmann so I emailed again. On 5/4 Mr Willmann responded that he had been busy but could he call the next day at 1. I replied that was fine. Two days later it became apparent that Mr Willmann wasn't going to call or even email back. So I emailed him on 5/6 with the full details of what happened on 4/24. Now here we are on 5/30 with still no response. I've given them plenty of time to respond before even considering making a review.

I ordered the meatloaf and my boyfriend got the sirloin steak. The meatloaf was absolutely delicious, I was very impressed. The sauce paired so well with the mashed potatoes underneath and the crispiness of the onions added a great crunch. Would come back just for this dish. We had some of the southern charcuterie appetizer platter and it had a great variety of things that were so delicious. We didn't get a chance to try the orange rolls but did buy some to take home, which came frozen and had baking directions. Definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a nicer place to enjoy a meal

    It could have been the company ~ or the service ~ and yes those things were fabulous!! But on a…read morefreezing blustery day we picked up a huge dose of southern goodness when we stopped at All Steak for lunch on a Friday! Mom ordered French Onion Soup and a side salad. I ordered three sides ~ mashed sweet potatoes, macaroni and cheese, and collards. Mom loved her cheesy soup and I left not a jot of my yumminess. All Steak is gorgeous ~ and on this cold day we truly appreciated the warmth not only in the decorating but also in spirit. Mark is an excellent waiter and made sure our coffee (deep flavor, ceramic mugs, soooo good) and bread basket never faltered. All Steak still sends you off with orange rolls (even if you just finished off a huge (shared) portion of bread pudding). Delightful and delicious. I'm glad this old standard is still around!

    Great ATMOSPHERE. Food is good but can be improved…read more Visiting family in Cullman wanted to try this place and saw that they had ramen. Coming in I loved the decorations of guitars on the walls, roof made to look like a stage set scaffolding in total atmosphere was great I loved the theme. Waiter/host was kind and very attentive. My kid and I tried some ramen and some appetizers. We tried the fried chicken stage stoppers pretty good, very crispy and good sauce. I really like the tuna and avocado appetizer that was really good. We got the creamy tonkotsu, and black garlic tonkotsu. They were out of protein for the ramen by 2pm so that's not very good to run out of food by lunchtime and I will say the ramen was not the best in my opinion. Ramen needs to be seasoned more was lacking the saltiness of the broth and the noodles are a bit over cooked that it breaks very easily. Cook the noodles less and add more bouillon to the broth they'd have a better ramen. The seasoned egg was excellent I give them good points for that a good ramen should always have a good seasoned egg. Also ordered some salmon sashimi and a bagel roll. Sashimi was good and decently fresh but very thin, but they made up for it by decorating it into a rose which was lovely. All in all decor was great, had a good mother and daughter time, food was good but can be improved.
