Central

Alabama


The gourmet's choice, this stunner has an airy interior with a reclaimed-wood bar. The booths are sumptuous and these guys were doing farm to table before it was 'A Thing' – the menu specializes in wood-fired fish, chicken, steaks and chops sourced from the region. Dishes like a pesto-walnut pasta keep vegetarians well fed.
