    A. Must. Great breakfast food in a vintage dive just outside of Bryant Denny Stadium. Bedecked with Alabama memorabilia, lined with game signed balls, and game day cubs, Rama Jama's serves up classic no frills breakfast that is delicious. I highly recommend the ham! Despite the long line, it moves fast and food comes out quicker. A++ Tuscaloosa establishment

    Cheeseburger with bacon and onion rings!

    It's a cult classic in Alabama lure. It's a great burger joint next to the Stadium and right off campus. Packed on game day with a line out the door, A great lunch spot during the week when passing thru or visiting the U of A. Parking can be challenging on busy days. While you wait one can take a gander at all the old media memorabilia and Alabama Football!

    There for breakfast. The chicken biscuit was very good. Grits were very good. The prices were very good. All good. The $16 2-for-1 bottles of mimosa all day (including breakfast) is over the top. They are the heart of the Crimson Tide experience. When in Tuscaloosa it is worth the trip located right outside Bryant-Denny Stadium. May not be recommended on game day.

    Sorry, but I wasn't impressed at all. The Hamburger was dry, the bun was dry and the fries were over fried. I know it was a game day, but with lines out the door from morning to sundown, I expected it to be fantastic. Maybe just an off day.

    Chili burger with fries

    In the shadow of Bryant-denny Stadium sits this dinner. There is so much random Alabama memorabilia in here. Some of my favorites include a barstool from Joe Namath's restaurant, Nico Johnson's pads, and an orange and white flag, that should never be seen in Tuscaloosa, flying from a crane while renovating the stadium. It is always packed on Gameday but on a Tuesday, there was hardly anyone here. I had a burger with chili, crinkle cut fries, and Reese's milkshake. The milkshake was the star of the meal. It is made from real ice cream and I had them make it with chocolate. If I ever come back, that is what I am getting. The burger was a good ole fashioned burger. The buns were toasted and buttery. The patty was hand-made and fresh. The chili had a BBQ base to it. The fries were your average crinkle cut. Unfortunately, they serve that abomination known as Gold Peak Sweet Tea and not freshly brewed. This is a place to visit for the milkshake and the burger was pretty good. It was also pretty cheap. But the highlight of Rama Jama's is the random Alabama memorabilia everywhere. Definitely a place to visit if you are a Bama fan.

    Junk and crap waste of money and time .. hellhole

    Worst ever place .. during game day.. stay away. Waste of time and money .. came for breakfast but got a burger .. expected bad but this hell.

    This place is always wonderful and a very cool place if you are into sports memorabilia involving Alabama football. The food is always wonderful and comes out quickly with fantastic service! You can't beat the prices and getting to chat with the owner he might even show off his natty rings.

    Nice Bama vibe!

    Tough to rate, the ambiance and the University of Alabama history was cool at this restaurant. The food was good and they specialize in breakfast and mimosas. Would love to come here when they weren't busy as the wait was close to 2 hours to wait in line and then get our food.

    Incredible! Stopped by Tuscaloosa to see the stadium and had to stop here! The cheeseburgers were delicious! Definitely have to get everything on it! Glad we stopped in!!

    We were really hungry and saw that this place had good ratings. It was 4 miles off of the map but well worth the drive. This restaurant literally sits next to the University of Alabama stadium. We tried the #1 grits, eggs and meat and #3 pancakes eggs and meat and all of it was really good.

    I want to write a MAJOR shoutout to Ty Tomlinson!! We hosted a party for 70 people over graduation…read moreweekend at Avenue Pub and Ty's attention to detail was unbelievable. He went up and beyond to make sure that every aspect of our party was fantastic. He helped me problem solve and he came up with great solutions, he made sure that the upstairs venue was impeccably cleaned for our event (even sent pictures) to calm my mind that all was going well, he made sure the food was unbelievable and that our bar/ bartenders were spot on!! Ty quite honestly made planning and hosting an event at Avenue Pub stress free! I am from out of state and I knew all was being taken care of just perfectly! I can honestly say that I have never had that attention to detail and follow up from anywhere I have ever hosted an event. Ty was in constant contact assuring me all was being attended to so our graduation party would be the best!! I would highly recommend planning your next party at the upstairs venue at Avenue Pub and you'd be so lucky to have Ty Tomlinson to work with you. Also, a huge shoutout to our bartenders that attended to us that night. They were kind, serviced the bar wonderfully, and made our party fantastic!

My chicken shawarma was just meh because it lacked any real seasoning/spice. The ingredients are quality but the flavor was not there for me. I enjoyed the roasted veggies which were interestingly well seasoned. Service was friendly and prompt. The ambience is college town vibes (7 tvs each blaringly loud). Decor was nice with plenty of windows with natural light, wood tables and comfortable chairs (no arms on any of them) and bar stools. 1 star deduction for lack of flavor in sandwich 1 star deduction for WAY too loud TVs (excessive) exacerbated by Kitchen sounds

If you've never had meat (or VEGGIES!) cooked on a BGE, it will change your life. This fact alone will bring me back to try other things. Before I get into the meal, my only real complaint was that they only had a soda machine and tea. I had brought my mother along, and she already had lunch and wanted just to sit and chat. As it was a very cold day she was gonna order a coffee and they don't offer anything hot! It's definitely an opportunity to expand here even if it was just so simple as putting a Keurig machine in the back. I had the Buffalo Chicken Wrap. It is served with grilled chicken in a grilled wrap and cheddar cheese. If there was a buffalo sauce, I didn't taste any. I was a little disappointed in the wrap. The flavor didn't really stand out as being cooked on the Big Green Egg. The cheese wasn't really melted, which can be a common problem with shredded cheddar cheese, but it also didn't really have the buffalo flavor that I was looking for in a buffalo chicken wrap (maybe it was a Toledo Ohio wrap I don't know just not spicy. ) It served with a side of ranch which I juiced up with some Cholula and that helped. I i'm not knocking the quality of the food because it was good. It just didn't live up to the expectations I had in my head based on the menu description. It also came with a side, which I chose the broccoli salad. This was nicely done with bacon, I believe some quinoa and the broccoli was chopped up nicely so you didn't have huge chunks. Also, it wasn't overly sauced so that would make it runny. Overall I give the property four out five stars. Also, the flavor of the whole meal was fine. Good size portion and good value for your money.
