Nothing had flavor and seemed straight from a can, not homemade in any fashion. I added salt and pepper after my initial taste test, bc I respect cooks/chefs enough to trust their seasoning judgment, but adding s&p still did nothing for the Mac or green beans. The only thing I ate was the ham between the roll. I wouldn't cater a wedding or special function based on my first impression at all. Dry and lacked intentionally of branding yourself.

The menu was chicken Alfredo, lasagna, garlic bread, salad, banana pudding and Oreo delight. So very good! Thank you!

The food was great. Tasty, and presented in a beautiful fashion. The server was a pleasure to work with and kept the morning moving along, helping with cleanup and the entire take down. That was above and beyond what was expected. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!! Recommend highly!!

Stopped by Smiley Brothers for lunch. Nice little restaurant with an old world vibe. Excellent wine…read morechoice, fresh cheese, dry aged ribeyes and fresh cut steaks. We were greeted promptly and took a few minutes to look at the menu. I LOVE roast beef, so it peaked my interest. My wife chose the Smiley burger. We placed our order and grabbed a seat. Place was quiet even though it was probably 75% full for lunch. Roast beef was served hot in toasted sour dough. Cheddar, tomato, lettuce and horseradish topped the generous portion of roast beef. Bread was crisp and the beef was hot and juicy. Horseradish gave a nice tangy flavor. My wife's Smiley burger was hand patted. Juicy and perfectly cooked. Bun was soft inside and nicely toasted in the outside. Bread and butter pickles, onion, tomato and lettuce topped it off. But the star of the show were the fries cooked in beef tallow!! Hot and salty, crispy and a deep flavor. I would come back just for the fries. Although a little bit pricey for lunch, it was excellent! Staff were friendly and attentive! Would highly recommend and will definitely be back! Thanks for an awesome lunch and excellent experience!

Although all the details had been confirmed in advance, she reached out to me on the day of asking to deliver the food several hours before the confirmed time, because she "had something else to do." I declined because we did not have a good way to store the food or take a delivery, but despite the fact that I told her all of this, she sent a delivery person over with the food hours early anyway. Really disappointed in the service and will save myself the stress in the future by using another caterer.

I had seen Dwayne and Big Daddy's advertising the food truck in various places around town. So…read morewhen he was nearby, I headed over to try it out. Couldn't decide what to try, so since it was lunch time we got the pulled pork sandwiches. That is a ton of meat on just one sandwich! It doesn't come with any sides, but you don't need them when you have fresh, tender pulled pork on a nice soft bun. It comes dressed with his own signature sauce, though I'm sure he could put it on the side or whatever if you wanted. Only had enough cash for lunch, but he apparently also usually has his bottled sauces available for purchase, too. Next time I look forward to trying the polish sausage or the bbq nachos.

After going back in that direction, I took a chance. 02/05/2021, located in Alabaster across from CVS Hwy 119. Checked Yelp to see if there was a menu since it was dark and I wasn't in a hurry to exit my car, I sat deciding what I wanted. Someone comes to my car (maybe the owner) stating they were getting ready to close (530pm). I decided on the polish sausage without cheese, $8. He proceeded to let the others know my order before I made it to the window. There was enough for at least 3 servings. Nice sauce, plenty of ground beef mixed with onions and peppers (I love onions and peppers). Looking forward to the brisket.

Assortment looks to be a bit larger than at the previous location, and I appreciate the sign boards above.
