B'Ham girls

So my appt at UAB is this afternoon.  Its downtown on 6th Street.

My ? is where could be go eat for dinner afterwards?    My DH doesn't eat Chinese or Japanese or Sushi :)

I figure we might as well have a nice dinner after a stressful day.

Re: B'Ham girls

  • I would probably go to the Fish Market or Jim & Nicks BBQ.
  • I'm no help as to what to eat, I just wanted to say good luck!
  • Thanks!  I am not familiar with B'ham at all so I have no ideas really.
  • No food help from here either I too just want to wish you good luck!
  • Jim and Nicks is on 11th Avenue in 5 Points South.  If you want to venture towards Brookwood Mall you could go to Brio or Cocina Superior - both are yummy.  If you like pizza you can try Davenports in Mt. Brook or New York Pizza in Homewood.  A good Italian restaurant near UAB is Giuseppe's - 925 8th St. S

  • oh yeah - Good luck

  • I forgot to wish you good luck.  Sorry.  I hope everything turns out ok.
  • Thanks girls!!  I am already hungry so everything sounds good.
  • Ditto pp.  Also, there's 26, Ocean, and Cobb Lane down from 5 Points South on 20th Street.  26 and Ocean are seafood places.  Cobb Lane is such a sweet restaurant and the rolls are awesome.  Up the road in Lakeview are the Lakeview Oyster House, Little Savannah, and Silvertron. I haven't been to the last two (they're on my to-eat list), but the Oyster House is really good. 

    Good luck at your appointment!  I'm saying a prayer for you!

  • Everyone had great suggestions.  The Fish Market is the closest to UAB, it's on 6th ave across from Kirklin Clinic.  Also, if you get on 21st St and keep going past Vulcan, you'll be in Homewood .  If you look to your left you'll see a big building, that's the Soho complex and it has a restaurant called Jackson's that is really good.

    I wish you the best of luck!

    Siggy coming soon....
  • Mmmm! I second Cocina Superior! Soooo good! I like their fish soft tacos and their fajitas.

     A word of warning though, Cocina Superior isn't typical mexican food. It's baja style mexican so the choices are a little different than what you would expect.

    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • I second Lakeview Oyster House.  It is so yummy.  Cocina Superior is a great choice as well.  Also, if you want a great fish taco try Rojo.  Its a very laid back bar type and great food at decent prices.  I will warn you though the bathroom is bar scary :(  However, the mahi mahi tacos are fab (as well as the chicken).

    Good luck on the appt!  *saying prayers*
