Had a wonderful dining experience here. The tomato salad was amazing. The dessert was so good I would have taken a photo of it but I ate it too fast. The pasta dish we had was not the greatest we have had but it had good flavor. Parking: The free Valet was easy and friendly! Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner View menu

This place was recommended and it did not disappoint. I sat at the bar in between work meetings and the service was exceptional. I also tried the Bottega lemonade per the bartender's suggestion and it was delicious, a must try! Vibe and food were very good too, definitely worth a stop in. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

We enjoyed a few appetizers to leave space for dessert, and I'm so glad we did! The desserts were absolutely heavenly. The tiramisu was moist and flavorful, while the coconut pecan cake was simply outstanding. Our waiter was very attentive and provided excellent recommendations. Be sure to request a table in James’ area (he goes by Happy) – he adds so much fun to the experience!

"If there is a restaurant that is a Birmingham institution among the wealthier crowd, there is literally only one name that locals would bring up, and it is undoubtedly Highlands. Not that there aren't other nice restaurants, but this spot has proven itself over time and is ran by a chef that most Alabamians are quite proud of. Opened in 1982, Highland's is a place that put Birmingham on the map in a positive way at a time when the post industrial iron period was about to wind down and transform the city. Frank formalized his cooking techniques by working in kitchens of San Francisco and France, creating a medley of American Southern and French cuisine that is difficult to find elsewhere. It was not a time when it was common to see a chef from Alabama going to study cooking in Europe, thus the story was already an anomaly. Frank Stitt was trying to pioneer sustainable agriculture and farming well before anybody in Alabama knew what in the world that actually meant or for that matter, cared. One of the signature items is the baked grits that has been around since the restaurant opened. It's a tasty grits preparation and without a doubt, something to try. The pheasant was spectacular, fairly lean and with a crispy delicious skin, served with grits and green beans. Pastries here are created by Dolester Miles, who has been in the job for well over 30 years. The opera cake is absolutely spectacular, gentle and complexly layered. The basque cake is peachy and moist, with a crispy delicious exterior and Chantilly cream. Not only are these likely the best desserts to discover in Alabama, but may be some of the best to be found in America. The attentiveness got derail was clearly evident. As far as service, generally fine, but not particularly attentive. The waitress did not seem in much of a mood to welcome people to the establishment. Many items on the menu were running out by 8:30pm on a Saturday night. Nobody was particularly impressed with the flounder that got substituted for the grouper. And then there are other questions, why would you run out of grits? They know they are always filled to capacity and ingredients to make grits are not immediately perishable. Highland's has by this point in Birmingham's history become a classic. It's evident that most people here have been around for decades working at their jobs and serving the rich crowds of Mountain Brook. It's a place of great food and shows many combinations of ingredients that are nearly impossible to find elsewhere, let alone be executed this well."
