They make excellent Indian cuisine especially Biryani. But for some reason when order through delivery apps like UberEats or Grubhub they give very little mutton and their signature egg in the boiled biryani is missing something. Disappointed read more

Went for the first time this week (Thursday). Got fried chicken, fried fish, rice and gravy and okra. I was pleasantly surprised by the really nice space!! It had a full bar and great staff. I got the order to go but because the food was made fresh, I had a chance to sit a while. Nice vibe!! Everything was cooked to perfection. I could taste the flavors of a home cooked meal in every bite once I got home. Everyone in the family enjoyed the food.... So much so we went back the very next day!!! Day two might have even been better than day one. Lol. We plan on checking out the Sunday Dinner today!! I found a new GO TO SPOT .. read more

Food is okay at best . Fried chicken is good . Too many things with gravy and sauce. Service well it no service you order food at counter and sit down. The employee not very personable. Ambiance none. read more

A nice spot right outside Maxwell AFB main gate. I was greeted with a smile and a menu. Coffee was hot but a bit weak to my liking. I wanted to try the biscuits & gravy but not a platter of biscuits. I asked if I can order a typical breakfast platter with eggs, bacon, and grits with a biscuit and saucer of gravy on the side just to try - I did not mind if it was an additional charge. No extra charge by the way! The food was good: biscuit was buttery and gravy was the right consistency with a hint of small bite sausages. Eggs was over easy just the way I like it. The grits, however, was a downer as it was way too salty; could have beeb too much salted butter. The server was very friendly and attentive. I guess that's expected in the south with the famous southern hospitality. The dining area was bright, clean, and inviting. Not sure about the sprinkle of bad reviews on yelp. read more

I ordered peach cobbler and received it in a container that was 1/2 full. I spoke with the owner Doug that REFUSED to make it right after spending $70.00 at the establishment! Instead, Doug THREW AWAY the container and walked away!!!! Doug needs to learn how to run a business and learn customer service skills!!! It would not of hurt him to put a little more in the container to satisfy the customer, instead of throwing the whole container away! WHAT A WAST! Poor Business!!!!! read more

The fried chicken and pork chops were fried and seasoned to perfection. The sides were not good. Rice was hard and uncooked. Okra was ok. Next time we go we'll just order chicken to go. read more

Just came in for lunch food 9.5/10! I had beef tips, rice, yams, dressing, and rutabagas. Customer Service started off a little rocky RARA was very rude taking our order considering it was our first time there. Nice young lady took care of us later very bubbly. read more

The gentleman that's at the register is not good with customer service, his communication skills are off and he's very impatient. The food was bland but would do since many places weren't open in Easter. The sweet young ladies were pleasant who continuously checked on my friend and I. read more

Absolutely delicious meat & 3. New owners. Generous portions of all home cooked sides and entrees. I had the smothered baked chicken, collards, cuke salad & side salad. All terrific! We will be coming back at least once a week. Lunch meat &3 tues to friday. Best new resturant in a long time!!! read more

This place is a cute family owned restaurant and the workers are all really nice. Which is why I'm giving them 3 stars... To be honest the food was not impressive. We ordered the "something else" sandwich with onion rings, the "kitchen sink" salad, sweet potato fries, side of baked veggies, and coffee. First of all, we never received the baked veggies or the coffee. The "something else" sandwich was mediocre and basic. The salad was also not impressive and lacked flavor... the onion rings and sweet potato fries were the highlight of the meal. All and all, we were starving so the food was acceptable and the girls working were hilarious and great people. The food was basic at best. read more

Yellowhammer Bistro - Kitchen Sink Salad - Southern Near Me - Montgomery, Alabama

Good food. Cornbread dressing and sweet potatoes were delicious. The fried green tomatoes were the best I have ever had. They were crunchy and full of flavor. The soft drinks/tea is expensive. The tea was good, probably made from tea bags and not powder. read more

I will start the review by saying the customer service was amazing and the atmosphere was great!! otherwise i did have to wait 40 minutes for a to go order during slow hours. I ordered the fried chicken, green beans, hush puppies, and fries. The Hushpuppies were INCREDIBLE, the chicken was just ok (better with hot sauce) , however the green beans were from a can with not much seasoning, and the fries were frozen with no seasoning at all. the restroom was halfway used for storage but they were very clean. I feel like this place has SO MUCH POTENTIAL!!! read more

Stopped here on a whim after finding them on Yelp. Did not disappoint. The food was excellent and the servers went out of their way to get to know you. I spent a few minutes talking to the mother and daughter working there and they gave me some excellent suggestions for coffee and other places to visit while in the area. It was the perfect place to stop at to start our trip to the area. read more

The food is amazing! Great hospitality! The fried green tomatoes are THE BEST! Most everyone in our group ordered them after hearing how good they tasted! I also recommend the fried chicken, Mac and cheese, collard greens and peach cobbler. read more

Got breakfast here. Biscuits were good and that was about it. Pancake and french toast batter was sour and salty tasting, not sweet. Lack of service, long wait, and no refills. Overall, Folks were polite but food is not good. read more

I came here with a large group one morning, the service was great, especially for serving 23 people, but the food was meh. I was really, really looking forward to some biscuits and gravy, so that's what I ordered. What I got was salty white sauce with a few bits of sausage, accurately reflecting the $5 I paid for it -- the price proves you get what you pay for. The biscuits were fluffy but hard to taste separate from the salty gravy. Some of the food looked pretty tasty -- build your own breakfast sandwich, pigs in blankets, etc, but not my biscuits. Many of the previous reviews talked about the poor service. Thankfully, this seems to have improved, as I thought the service was quite good. The servers were friendly, all of our food arrived at pretty much the same time. To facilitate free-flowing coffee, they gave us our own coffee self-serve station at the back of the room -- a great solution! I might come back to try something else, but there are other breakfast places I need to try first. read more

I'm not sure where the negative reviews are coming from! Our group was greeted with a huge smile a little after 6am. Coffee was good, and the prices were very fair. Food was great- biscuits and gravy only $5! read more

A definite must visit if you are ever on Maxwell AFB. Yellowhammer is the very definition of "southern home cookin". They have a menu, but all you need to know is Meat & Three. You pick an entree and sides, and they surprisingly quickly will bring out your meal. As you taste it, you realize you came to the right place. Each day has a new variety of specials, but the day I came I chose tried the Bacon Cheddar & Cheese Baked Chicken with the Cheese Grits. I also highly recommend the Banana Pudding, it's great. read more

Delicious food in a friendly and welcoming environment. Everything was well seasoned and had that home cooked, down home flavor it is too hard to find these days. Everything was clean and well kept as well. Highly recommend! read more

Our first time here. My husband and I came to Maxwell Vehicle Storage next door and got hungry. The place was really busy but we got seated quickly. I had the fried chicken special with mushroom quinoa & baked veggies. My husband had the hamburger meat & gravy with mashed potatoes, green beans and some other beans. I was really impressed with the food! It wasn't greasy or over-salted (always a concern of mine) but tasted perfectly healthy - right up my alley! My husband loved his meal too. Good home-made southern food. Got some dessert to-go (Strawberry cheesecake and Banana Pudding - we heard they're great!) read more

The food here was cooked perfectly they had a lot of staff and I love the patriotic decor.

Some of the best Southern Comfort food I have had in a long time matched with great customer service. Our waitress answered all of our questions was able to describe all the tastes of the sauces. I would definitely take my family back read more

I came on my lunch break and waited patiently while the cashier overlooked me and taking my order to cash out customers that came in line after I was already at the counter to order. My time was not valued as a paying customer and the perception I got was discriminatory and upsetting as I have came there several times in the past to eat needless to say I won't be patronizing them anytime soon. read more

Great Southern Service! The food was delicious. We were in a hurry and the waitress did her best to get our orders done and our bill in record time. read more

Well now we (Montgomery Alabama) can add Yellowhammer Cafe' to the list of great places to eat a good Southern Breakfast.... Haven't tried the lunch menu yet but.... Looks fantastic! read more

This was a rough experience. Only one waitress for around 10 tables and we watched her have to correct every single order coming from the kitchen. Also, no staff wore masks and the waitress cozied up on the seat next to my children when taking our order - these days it's just not a great practice. read more

Don't waste your money! The sandwiches and burgers are so plan! They don't even melt your cheese and had no seasoning what so ever. There are way better places to eat than this cafe. read more

This is a meat and 3 however they were out of almost everything. I came on a Thursday which was pulled pork and beef tips and something else. But the only thing they had was pulled pork. Since I don't eat pulled pork I decided to order off the menu and get the Rueben and guess what they were out of that too. So I settled on a club with no bacon extra turkey. To be clear I expect a club to be in layers. Bread mayo lettuce tomato bread turkey or meat more mayo bread. That is not what I got. I got a regular turkey sandwich with lettuce and tomato on toast. With no mayo. It wasn't that good. I got sweet potato fries with it. They were very good. My husband got the pulled poem with green beans and cabbage. He loved his lunch and raved on how good it was. We have decided to maybe give it another chance. I will keep you updated. On the next visit for now. I would say meh and kinda disappointed. read more

I thought the food was overpriced for what you received, and the food was just OK. It seems other folks really like it, maybe I'm just picky, but it was a one-time journey for me. read more

This place is AWESOME! CUTE country decor and a fantastic menu! They offer a variety of veggies, burgers and snadwhiches. Plus they rotate their sides and 3 daily choices of some good southern cooking. This placing is typically pretty popping so you could wait a few for your food, but it's worth the wait! GO GO GO!! read more

Made the trip from Prattville on my 1 hour lunch break to wait 45 mins for my food to be delivered, no refills, no to go box, no nothing!! Worst service ever!! Never once came and checked on us at all! Should have stayed in town and enjoyed the specials at Jims instead!! read more

If you come after 12:45, they are out of most of the meats they offer on the meat and three side. At least that has been my experience the past three visits. Since they were out of so many meats from the daily specials, my co worker ordered a burger and we waited almost 40 minutes for it to arrive. Not that impressed. read more

Service was good. Staff was friendly. Prices were fair. FOOD WAS AMAZING!!!! Really close to Maxwell AFB. I only wish they'd open for dinner. Definitely recommend eating here. read more

Where do I begin... I ordered the "Meat and 2" - beef tips over rice, broccoli, and fried green tomatoes. The portions were not overly large, but not small; the amount of food was perfect for lunch fare. The beef tips over rice tasted like it came from an MRE (Meals Ready to Eat); I had to douse the entire portion with hot sauce to get any flavor. The broccoli was good, but it's not that hard to heat up frozen broccoli and dash some salt and black pepper on it. The only tolerable part of the meal was the fried green tomatoes. Service was lacking. So if you want bland, mediocre food with poor service, this place is for you! read more

My son took me there for breakfast it was GREAT the manager was so sweet, the waitresses were the best so kind and nice service was on point...everyboby took care of their tables not just one waitress waiting but they waited on you as a whole...they were quick to get to your table...they greeted as you walk through the door, the place is roomy they even have a private room for meetings.... YUMMY read more

Good food, but service is extremely slow. I have tried it twice once during opening week and again last week. 30 min wait in food which is by far the slowest around. Hopefully all the kinks get worked out as they get things under control read more
