    a parking lot at night
    Peter D.

    It's near midnight, your hungry and danced up a healthy appetite from attending a great concert or club. You maybe a little over served on top of it. Everything seems to be closed, so where do you go? Absolutely the Waffle House! Now I normally go to other Waffle House restaurants for the free entertainment that goes along with enjoying breakfast or diner past bed time, however this one in Hoover in special. It's right off 31 and is a secret location off the Public's parking lot. I feel like I am going to a secret hidden speak. If you are really drunk, finding the entrance maybe difficult. Mild to moderate drunk, it's possible with good gps. Severely drunk, gooood luck! Surprisingly this Waffle House is always busy. Why?....because it's the best freaking Waffle House on the planet. Anyone not giving this Waffle House five stars must have been so intoxicated they tried to eat the menus. Service is far superior than any other of the sophisticated breakfast places piping up around town. Workers are friendly, intelligent and sober! My wife and I had delicious eggs, ham, grits, toast and waffles super special. Everything was super clean and the coffee was delicious. Ambiance was a little more sophisticated than most Waffle Houses, but you still could show up after prom and they would still let you in. I am ratting this WH with five star plus!

    The kindest waitress served us last night and I couldn't decide what type of waffle and she made me a waffle with all 4 flavors! She went out of her way late at night and she was so sweet, not a lot of people do this at waffle house! This place deserves 5 stars!

    These are the employees that are at work but they refuse to serve me because they are "closed"

    Came at 3:00 am restaurant is supposed to be 24 hours I see employees standing outside at their cars yet they say that they are closed so who's lying here?????

    Farrelleys for my birthday dinner!!…read more We've been here several times and have never been disappointed! They have an amazing happy hour from 4-6. I got a marg ($8) and the baked pimento cheese dip to start - served with pita. ($7) I loved my pan seared scallops with grits and broccolini. The cranberry bacon "jam" really adds so much flavor and create the perfect bite when you add all components together. ($34) Dad and David got the meatloaf and loved. It comes with house made BBQ, potatoes and broccolini. ($28) Perfect for when you want to go to an upscale meal but still have to make your man happy - this is literally a "meat and potatoes" dish. Mom got the Paneed chicken with brown butter sauce, mashed potatoes and spinach. She had no complaints! ($28) Service was very friendly and parking was no issue at all! This is a perfect place for a big group because there's something for everyone. It's casual, comfortable but still feels on the upscale side of things. We will be back!

    Food first, thoughts after... Let me just say the service…read morewas amazing. Our waitress was a cultured young woman who did an amazing job checking in on us and guiding us. We chose the restaurant because we were staying at the hotel. I would say dishes wise they are more on the sweet size. The potato crips had jam around them. The lamb had a sweet glaze on top. I am more of a savory person. Overall still a good dinner and night.

    We came to the Ross Bridge restaurant as a group of 10 girls for my friend's bachelorette spa day,…read moreexpecting a fun and relaxing brunch before our massages. Unfortunately, it turned into one of the most frustrating dining experiences I've had. I called several days ahead to ask about reserving a table and was told brunch was first come, first serve only. To make sure we could sit together, two of us arrived at 9:30 AM for our 10:00 brunch plans. We were initially told we could either sit outside split between two tables or wait about 20 minutes for a table inside together. We agreed to wait. After waiting 40 minutes, they attempted to seat us... split between two tables inside anyway. At that point, what was the purpose of waiting nearly an hour? We declined and chose to wait longer so our group could actually sit together. During all of this, several staff members acted as though our group was a huge inconvenience. There was rude behavior, dismissive attitudes, obvious staring, and even employees giving fake names when asked. Instead of feeling welcomed, we felt like we were bothering them simply by being there. We finally got seated around 10:45. Our waitress was polite, but service was painfully slow. Right after ordering, I explained that we had massages beginning at noon and asked if she could prepare our checks early so we could leave on time. There was no sense of urgency about this, everything was still extremely slow and took way longer than expected. It took 30 minutes just for us to receive a mimosa, and then another 40-45 for food. Mind you we still have appointments at the spa which the staff were aware of. Around 1130, right after we got the food, I reminded her again that we urgently needed our checks to make our appointments. She assured us they'd be out within 15 minutes, but we didn't end up signing checks until almost 11:50. We then had to rush across the resort stressed and late for what was supposed to be a relaxing spa experience. What should have been a low-stress, celebratory brunch before my friend's wedding became chaotic and disappointing. The food was fine but overall terrible experience. Between the disorganization, poor communication, rude staff, and extremely slow service, this experience completely missed the mark. I would not return to this restaurant and would strongly recommend eating elsewhere before coming to the resort.

    I'm so glad we have multiple BBB locations in Birmingham and let me tell you, having another option…read moreclose to my house has been delightful! All of the food here is good, but especially the fresh squeezed orange juice, the bacon, the biscuits, and the jellies, jams, and sauces. You can't go wrong with anything at this place. It is just consistent and trustworthy every single time I go there. The last three times I have been to this location, the service and the staff, from the hostess to the bartender to the server at my table to the manager coming by to check on us, were all incredible. Pro tip...I can't remember the name of it, but that homemade jalapeño hot sauce is divine. It goes good on almost anything savory, especially egg dishes and biscuits. I'm sure I will be back soon!
