"Pretty good. I went here based on all the positive reviews. I’m from the Metro Detroit area originally and we have almost as many Middle Eastern restaurants as some places have McDonalds so I’m extra picky. They claim there’s sauce on their shawarmas but there didn’t seem to have any. The dolma was ok but lacked the flavor I was expecting. The crushed lentil however, was excellent!"

Great middle eastern food. Fresh salads. Also has a grocery store and pita bakery.

Good, but definitely not the best gyro I've had. They do make their own pita, though, which was very soft and flavorful.

Great staff, no one at all, but my lunch companion and me. He made it very pleasant! It can bring LOUD in when it's busy! View menu

This is definitely on my list of favorite spots in the Birmingham region. A fantastic Mediterranean restaurant that also has a small market inside. They also make their own pits in the house. I highly recommend trying.

I had a great lunch! The chicken-shawarma wrap was so unexpected. The roasted Pita and pickled Turnip in the pack made something good in something I will return to dinner again. Thanks for being such a great restaurant in Birmingham!

Pita Pizza was something new for me. I got a Greek and it was delicious. Great new take on a gyro sorta. Had hummus as an appetizer which was very good as well. They also have them to have a grocery store inside where you can buy a lot of the items take them home and cook them yourself. I'll be back for some dolmas! View menu

I wanted a different place to eat. I tried najis pitas and was blown away. My mouth woke up and told me to eat more. That was in 2013. Now it's 2022 and I live in tampa, over 400 miles away. I drove 9 hours, to get my hands on their food. It was amazing. I remembered every bite...and I only hope that savory taste lasts.

Really enjoyed my zaatar pie (more of a sandwich) with acid cream, tomatoes, onion, green peppers and olives on the side. The production was crisp, the Pita was fresh, and the Zaatar tied them all together with a satisfactory earthiness. The Lebanese coffee was nice, too a little different taste than brewed coffee, but I added a whole bunch of sugar.

"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."
