   Family outing for a Broadway in Birmingham play. Seating was perfect as we were in a semi private space or it might have been a little loud for us.

   Me, my husband, and some friends have been very excited about getting to finally go eat at Farrelly’s. Walked in to a beautiful atmosphere and that was about the only highlight. Server was nice but was overwhelmed with another huge party at was not able to take care of our table properly. Slow getting our drinks, slow getting our order, but quick with the check. She was very nice but not apologetic at all. The food was subpar, one of our friends meal was cold, one friend ordered a wedge salad as her main course and did not receive it until we all were already done with our entrees. I certainly don’t mind paying high prices for high quality, but this experience was not high quality. Our excitement for Farrely’s came to a complete close and not sure if we are willing to come back and pay those prices for a mediocre meal and experience.

   I was very disappointed with the quality of the food and how it was prepared. For this to be a semi upscale restaurant, it gave “Over Promised, Under Delivered” food vibes. 2/10 Ordered: Fried Okra Appetizer Fried Oyster Appetizer Shrimp & Grits Entree Waygu Burger

   We had a girls night there and loved the ambience at Farrelly’s. We had a great seat in the back corner that allowed us to be able to hear each others conversations. The appetizers were fantastic-try the black eyed pea hummus. Everyone was pleased with their main course selection. We also had the chocolate torte for dessert. Our server was very attentive and we even had a worker go above and beyond to take our girl group picture. Definitely recommend Farrelly’s.

   We came here recently for brunch, however, this was not our first time eating here. We have had very good experiences here but this last time the food was not up to par with what we are accustomed to here. We thought maybe because it was near the end of the brunch hour that the food was the way it was. Our potatoes were basically to crunchy to eat and our omelettes were cold. Also, my mimosa glass came with lipstick on it. I mentioned it and it was quickly acknowledged and replaced. We will be back to eat because the good experiences definitely outweigh this one bad .

    Always a great place to dine. Food is too notch, although menu does not vary by much. Service is good, can be slightly slow at times and bar tends to back up quite easily.

    Decent experience but nothing to brag about. I had a 6:30pm reservation but was not seated until 6:50pm. Really the experience got off to the wrong start with that. Had a decent experience with our Waiter David. Very knowledgeable and thorough. He did a good job and did all he could to manage our experience. Kudos to him. The table bread was good. It is a stand alone order for the menu. Something very odd on timing between when I ordered and when food arrived to table. I had already had a long day and made a reservation with the hope that I could have a high quality experience and also maximize my time. I am a corporate executive and my time is really precious. The cuisine was good, but not having my entree in front of me within an hour of arriving at restaurant is not acceptable. Mocktail was okay…I have had better… The restaurant is not worth investing your time or effort.

    The food was great. We reserved a table for seven a day prior to our arrival. However, our table was in the wine cellar. We did not much care for it simply because we could not hear the live music and we felt a little stuffy. Otherwise, our experience was okay.

    When we booked this reservation, nothing was said about a fixed price menu. We rarely have starters or dessert, so this was a disappointment right off. The staff in the dining area were pleasant and working very hard and fast which was a good first impression. However, after ordering from a very limited and over priced menu, it was like we were being forced fed so that the table could be turned. An example of that is that our dessert was brought to the table before we finished our entrée! The food was acceptable but nothing that we would order again. Charles, our waiter was very friendly and helpful, but the food was served by other people from the kitchen in a very rushed manner. I must say this was a disappointment with the rating that the restaurant had.

    We have been twice I. The last 2 weeks. We love the atmosphere. The first time my husband got his food 20 min before I did and he had finished before I got mine. It seemed like the waitress had too many tables maybe in the bar area. She was friendly but didn’t check in with us (almost avoiding eye contact). We received 10% off but that was a strange, frustrating experience. The food was pretty good. The second was for a holiday/birthday dinner with family and the food was just ok for the price. The bread was the best thing we ordered. The service was good. And they tried to fix an undercooked steak for us, but seemed like the fire was too hot on the 2 steaks that were ordered and no seasoning. Atmosphere is great though.

    We were in town for a company Christmas party the night before. We are from North Alabama and wanted something close to Ross Bridge to eat before heading home. We searched Open Table for a brunch restaurant and are glad this restaurant came up. The food and service were great. I had the ham and cheese omelette and my wife had the meat lovers omelette. They were delicious and our server was awesome! We will recommend to others.

    Our food was excellent, cocktails were on point. Service was horrid. Tyler was not attentive. Would begin walking away while I was still talking, we sat and waited for dessert for 15 mins, while I watched him be super attentive to a table in the vault, which he frequented 5 times, while we waited on dessert. When he finally checked in, while we were still waiting on dessert, I told him we were finished and no longer cared for dessert (my coffee got cold while waiting). He said he would remove dessert from our check, which was fine, but then someone delivered an ice cold apple crisp when he disappeared again. He removed it, and he did remove our appetizer and the cold and uneaten dessert from the bill. Really a shame, because our food was excellent, drinks were great. He was just terrible. The restaurant isn’t very large, I’m all for patience when under staffed and overwhelmed. But, I literally watched him wait on one table 5 times after we ordered dessert. It’s not acceptable. I will definitely return, because I love to support family owned Hoover establishments. But, I’ll make sure he’s not our way staff.

    For a seemingly upscale and an expensive restaurant I was disappointed. My wife and I shared a salad and a filet. the salad came out as a single dish not separated for 2. The same for the filet with mashed potatoes. I had to separate the dishes into 2 servings which was messy. The steak which was prime beef was very salty and over seasoned which covered the taste of the meat. We may not visit this place again, at least until they become more customer friendly

    We were a large party celebrating Christmas. David J was a wonderful server. He checked on us often, and had great recommendations. We loved the atmosphere. The fried green tomatoes and fried pickled okra were great as appetizers. We enjoyed the cocktails ( Grove Gimlet, Margarita, Whisky Sour, and Holiday punch). The environment and staff were welcoming.

    We have been there many times and the oysters have been very good, cook perfectly. Last night they were overcooked. The fried green tomatoes had a black eyed pea topping which does not really go with fried green tomatoes.
