A terrible experience... 8/13/2010

Some friends suggested that we try Jackson's Bar and Bistro tonight, so my wife and I hopped in the car with them and headed to Homewood. The restaurant itself looks pretty nice from the outside and as you first step in, that's about the best I can say about it. more

LOVE this place 7/28/2010

This place is a great place to go and sit on the patio and have dinner and/or drinks. I live out of state and every time I am in Birmingham visiting family I eat at Jackson's. The ooey-gooey butter cake is TO DIE FOR and my husband says the bbq meatloaf is his favorite dish of all time. The atmosphere is great and so is the food! Love it. Pros: ooey-gooey butter cake Cons: Natta more

Very cool place-decent prices 10/19/2009

If you are older (35-40+) or wanting to take your family out to a nice quiet dinner, dont go here. More of a singles 20-somethings place. But if you're looking to go have some drinks and apps with some friends in a cool, outdoor, urban setting then this place is tough to beat. In terms of quality, the food is great, however some items are definitely better than others. As far as people on here saying their food isn't any good, they obviously haven't ever tried the Pasta Alfredeaux (not your normal alfredo), Tacos del Mar, Pizzas, Gumbo, or Buffalo Feathers Ceaser Salad. Good Brunch menu too on Sundays. Pros: Great atmosphere, extensive wine/dink menu Cons: usually a pretty loud place more

SoSo Dessert. Service is probably better inside. 12/18/2008

I stopped by here for some dessert and coffee with friends. I had some dessert egg rolls and coffee. The egg rolls we're only memorable because of their uniqueness not taste. The reason I'm rating this restaurant below average is because the coffee came out room-temperature twice, to be fair we were on the patio maybe service is better inside. Pros: Ambience, Uniqueness Cons: Service, Value more

Our Neighborhood hangout 5/21/2008

My friends and I are regulars here-the staff is great, and recognizes you after 1-2 visits. The food is fun and clever, affordable, and they have great bar specials. Sunday is 1/2 of bottles of wine, Tuesdays are 1/2 price well & call (don't hold me to this-I am writing this from memory because we go there so much). The patio is great, as are the 3 big booths that are to the left as you enter. Be sure to check out paintings and photography by local artists-most of the time they are for sale and really affordable. Pros: lots of parking (deck and behind SoHo), friendly staff, great patio, great wine list and bar specials more
