About this restaurant

Romantic
Good for special occasions
Innovative

Nestled on the southwest corner of the Courthouse Square, the three-story brick building that houses Cotton Row Restaurant was built in 1821 along the cotton exchange.

A vision for comfort, elegance and modern American cuisine is how the story of Cotton Row Restaurant began. We are inspired by the enduring passion of the cotton traders who once worked in downtown Huntsville, and invite you to experience our southern hospitality.

Food was fantastic. Only issue was a dry flounder that they made right immediately. Great and attentive service.

This is our favorite restaurant in Huntsville. This part time was a disappointment because even though I made the reservation well ahead of time, we were seated at a tiny table in the very back right beside the servers' workstation. It was a very noisy and cramped table.

We enjoyed our dining experience at the Cotton Row. We were visitors to Huntsville, AL for a birthday celebration. Nick helped to make the event special with a dessert that celebrated the birthday.

The food was excellent but service was very slow. The server was slammed with too many tables and only one bartender working. The staff was working hard and doing the best they could, but the restaurant was under staffed. No mangers visible or checking on customers.

Very disappointed and embarrassed for my Mother, on Mother's Day. I was expecting an extravagant brunch for the $60 per person that we paid. The only drink offered (inclusive) was tap water. Coffer, per cup, was $8 per cup. My beet salad had a tablespoon of beets and was difficult to eat in a polite way. the Salmon entree with creamed spinach was nice, my dessert (bananas foster French toast) had no bananas and was disappointing. We were not given spoons for the coffee, no S &P on the table, slow service. My Mother's crab bisque '"tasted like chicken soup and had no crab in it", she really liked her creme brûlée, my husbands short ribs were ok not very special, he liked the 3 tempura shrimp as appetizer, and his molten chocolate cake was disappointing. I believe the brunch was falsely advertised ( as it looks, online, like you would be getting fried oysters and petit filet as a choice). Very disappointed. we will not be back!

We had a lovely Mother's Day lunch. The food was excellent. The staff was very helpful and gracious. The windows were open, which is rare, and we loved that. All in all a wonderful experience.
