    Salt shaker and mess left on my table at the end of the meal.
    Susan B.

    Food wasn't too bad. We ordered the Spaghettini, it was supposed to have pine nuts, none. The waitress was very flat, seemed to be having a crap day. She took our order, after we sat for some time without being acknowledged. Brought our pop, didn't pre bus, left all the dirty glasses and dishes at the table. The salt shaker was all clumped up, and the salt was "wet". Someone else bright all the food, server never even acquired as to how our food was. Long story short, we didn't get what the menu said we would and the service was horrible.

    This is how it dried this cannot be  repaired

    I've been a customer here for years and have generally been understanding when service is not perfect. I know busy days happen and restaurants can be understaffed. However, my experience on a Friday afternoon was unacceptable! Not only because my new Prada bag was damaged, but because of the way the situation was handled afterward. My friend and I were seated at a very small table, which was manageable, though there was nowhere safe to place my purse. When the waiter cleared our dishes, he appeared rushed and handled the plates carelessly, allowing oil to splash onto my bag. The bag is a delicate leather-and-suede combination, and the oil altered the texture and caused permanent damage. Instead of taking responsibility and responding professionally, I was given club soda and baking soda and was left trying to blot oil from an expensive bag at the table. The waiter was not apologetic. While I was speaking with the hostess, I heard him snicker to the bartender and say " "$3000 for a bag" in a very condescending tone. This felt dismissive and he was basically mocking me.. For the record the bag was $2300 , and was recently purchased. I brought the bag to Prada, and they confirmed that it cannot be repaired because of the type of leather and suede involved. Offering to pay for dry cleaning does not resolve permanent oil damage when no cleaner can restore the bag. The manager, David, acknowledged that they were understaffed but essentially told me that it was an accident and "things happen." Accidents do happen--but a business's response, accountability, and empathy are what matter afterward. I was told to email the owners, yet I have received no response. I am disappointed by the lack of care, accountability, and basic courtesy shown after a staff member damaged my personal property. Guests should be able to enjoy a meal without leaving with an irreparably damaged item and feeling as though their concerns are being mocked or ignored. I have attached the photos of the oil damaged one of them is about 8 hours after so this is essentially how it dried.

    Lamb Burger

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great dinner at this trendy restaurant!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Reservations are a good idea because it's small. We had them and were seated immediately. Good cocktail menu. My friend is pregnant and asked for a mocktail...they have a choice of two and the one she received was very good. I had the lamb burger with sweet potato fries. The burger was excellent! A block of feta on it!! The fries were ok. I'd order them well done next time. A little limb. My friend had the Halibut with rice. Very good. We had the crispy shrimp and calamari app. Perfect!! I'll be back!!

    Buttermilk chicken

    Came here around 6:45pm on a Tuesday and we were able to be seated immediately. Place is very cute and was buzzy even on a weeknight. Service was friendly and the pacing of the food was perfect, our mains came out just as we were wrapping up with our appetizers. We split a few dishes, starting with the chopped salad and the house bread. House bread is realistically a bit overpriced at $9 but everything else was very reasonable. Salad was good but a bit one-dimensional. We also got the cauliflower (decent, but missing something - a squeeze of lemon could have gone a long way). The buttermilk chicken sandwich ($19) was delicious but the fries were just okay. Portions of everything were large. Bill was very reasonable. I probably wouldn't rush back for any of the food, to be honest, but the vibes were nice. Maybe a good spot for a drink/app before getting dinner elsewhere.

    Calamari and chopped salad
    Tawni S.

    Food is always amazing here. Fave items are the chopped salad, bread app, pizza, fried chicken sandwich, and salmon with avocado and onions. So basically everything

    Calamari

    I've had Market North End on my list of "must check out" since we moved here, and it's been nearly 2 years and I finally remembered and I'm kicking myself for not going sooner! This place is a GEM!!! We ventured in on a quiet Thursday, our first restaurant of 2025! I was so excited because my dad was in town for the holidays and I really wanted to take him somewhere phenomenal. All the reviews were SPOT ON and did NOT disappoint. We were instantly greeted by the poshest front desk hostess (so immaculately dressed in the cutest Sherpa moto jacket - I was smitten the moment I saw her) who was so warm and inviting. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I came in with my two kids first (my husband and father joined us later) and she instantly sat us away from the crowds and in an intimate nook so my kids were free to roam and play while we waited for our food. So considerate.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waiter was equally as friendly and so attentive! I forget his name but he had the kindest smile and was so adorable! He had the best food recommendations for us, and everything he suggested was fantastic. Despite going back and forth on what dish to order, I didn't feel rushed and he was very patient with our two kids and their raucous energy. Now, the FOOD!! Dear sweet baby Jesus - it was all AMAZING. We had the calamari w/ shrimp and please do NOT sleep on this app. The marinara sauce was delicious enough to drink. And the calamari was perfect and not rubbery at all. The shrimp was a nice surprise. We also had the Brussels sprouts and the sweet and spicy sauce was a nice balance. My kids ordered the Detroit style pizza (half pep and cheese) and - dare I say - it was even better than Buddy's my kids were blown away. I had the crispy chicken sandwich (although I hate fried chicken, weird I know) I was compelled to order it because the description was so tempting. I wasn't disappointed! So tender and juicy, and there was a slight honey aftertaste that I still can't stop thinking about. My husband had the lamb burger that was cooked to perfection and so delicious. My father had the trout with the avocado slaw. Seriously - we had ourselves a MEAL, ya'll. I'm still thinking about it. We will definitely be returning. The combination of stellar service and excellent food will keep Market North End at the top of our "go to" restaurant list forever. Don't even bother with the other restaurants in Birmingham, because Market North End is THE ONE

    Had a good experience at the market. It was packed when my friend and I arrived on a Wednesday evening but we got a table right away somehow. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was very loud, and it's only Wednesday, so I can only imagine how the weekends could get.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you want a quiet evening, my guess is, this isn't the place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My friend and I shared Brussels sprouts, a Caesar salad, a pizza, and chocolate butter cake. Pizza had sooo much flavor. The cake was moist, buttery and warm. Sweet but not too sweet. Everything was delicious. Our cocktails were also great. Will definitely be back.

    Seared Ahi Tuna

    It has been a hot minute since I was here and I'm not sure why I've been away so long! Food truly blew me away for the price point- some of the newer Birmingham spots have me expecting to be gouged for just OK food but I ordered the Branzini and it was fab! ($40 at Mex, $25 here) You should NEVER skip the bread service ($9 and sooooo worth it) but here are a few other surprises: Garlic Soup (comes out looking like French onion only prettier) was so good my friend said she's coming back just for that! Watermelon, feta & mint salad meant for sharing but finished solely by me! Tuna app can be a meal! Service was fantastic- so many places in town have unhappy staff (which points to very poor mgmt) but the vibe was light & comfortable here

    Olivia A.

    Never had a bad experience. Everything is amazing from the pizzas to the pastas to the salads. Apple walnut salad and watermelon salads are my fav, but all are great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Busy atmosphere and nice ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Great service and staff.

It's always a busy time for establishments, especially when it comes to holidays, but we repeatedly kept getting seated and "unseated" (the hostess would seat us, but then take us back to common area as the tables were either dirty or not ready). I didn't personally care about this, but I definitely noticed my party getting a bit frustrated by the experience as it happened about 4 times before we officially got seated, which also exceeded our initial reservation time. The service itself was okay. I wish they would've come around a bit more as we were out of water while eating our meal, but I know it was super busy that day!! I ended up getting the soft shell crab sandwich and it was pretty good! I think it would be even tastier with more sauce on the bun, but overall a nice pick. I also tried the lobster bisque; it had a nice texture with the little lobster bits, but found it overly salty. Hush puppies were a nice, crispy texture and I loved the sweet butter with it! One thing I absolutely loved about this experience was the mother's day flower pop-up stand! The cutest way to walk in and support another local business.

I have passed by Sidecar in Birmingham so many times, and strolled past it more occasions than I can count. I have always avoided the place because there is always someone inside of it who is racist and anything but professional. This corniest thing about management here is that it seems to train workers to only like it when whites sit at their eatery. Be sure to hold onto to a copy of your receipt if you wish to be refunded for the unpleasant blah-slop they will serve you. The food here looked like someone sat on it when I bought it, and it was flavorless from started to finish. Honestly, I was skeptical about coming here based on reviews and I wish I had listened to the complaints. One waitress was apologetic to me when I came back to complain, so sad for her because she was not the owner of this dump who has the personality of a headless turkey. The food is worth only one star, but I would give it zero if I could. I'd recommend just going to Applebee's instead of Sidecar and maybe the place that Sidecar is holding can be repurposed into some type of mixed-use community hub to breathe new life into Birmingham once it gets shut down. - Oakley
