Lovely French cuisine and wines. However, The Bottle is not a "bar and grill," and I'm disappointed to see t-shirts, old jeans, and even baseball caps on other people at the event.

We moved to Huntsville in fall of 2020 and had heard good things about the Bottle. Our first visit met or surpassed all of our expectations when we visited on Mothers Day. The food was outstanding; the service was prompt, courteous, attentive and knowledgeable. A wonderful experience all around. We'll definitively be back.

Everything was perfect, except the food took in excess of 45 minutes to receive after ordering, during a time when half the restaurant was filled. Server did a great job of checking on us and providing desert on the house. Prices have gone up but where have t they?

One of the best restaurants in Huntsville, however they cram to many people in a small space which causes a chaotic feel with no personal space to have private conversations.

The service wasn’t bad, but because it was Mother’s Day weekend I guess they were just super busy because we barely saw the waitress. When we did see her, the service was good. Also, we had several mix ups, like they brought us drinks meant for another table, and brought my meal twice. The food is good, and the drinks are good, and good location. Just wasn’t overall blown away, which I like to be for the prices you pay there

Best thing was the cheese plate and the service. Steaks were a bit small and charred too much. Sides were bland. Cheese plate was really good as was the service until they got busy, then the bar and the service suffered. However, Morgan was great and she made the experience better.

We went the last evening of the special Gulf menu and we were notified mid-way thru the meal that the Cobia would be substituted with Red Snapper… that’s similar to being told instead of prime filet they serve pork tenderloin

Another nice meal at The Bottle. Once again, Chris and Andy proved they know know how to source really good product (in this case Mahi, duck breast and an unusual duck sausage as well as particular fresh vegetables for this time of year) and put them together in interesting ways. Only complaint (which to some may not sound like a complaint) is that the plates were too full; actually could have reduced the portions and made the plates more attractive and the quantity of food more manageable. (Yes, extra food just means you get to enjoy it for lunch in a day or so.)

We were put in a room that was on the second floor and it was not very nice looking. The food was phenomenal but when we walked out of the restaurant and saw all the beautiful seating that was in the front, we would’ve much rather be more comfortable sitting there. This was our first time coming to this restaurant. It also took the server forever to fill up our waters and get our check which, for the price that you’re paying for the food is expected to be faster than that. However it was a good experience.

It was a beautiful setting. The menu was impressive and service was very good. Unfortunately, our food was not as impressive as the menu. It was visually very pretty and some of it was delicious yet some of the vegetables were undercooked and overall very salty (not just by one person’s taste, but by the entire party). We just were not overly impressed.
