The Downtown Chief in Alabama

"First timers! Family night, so we tried lots of different things! The fried mushrooms, fried pickles, trash can fries (with pork), downtown Burger, lemon pepper wings... All of it was fantastic. We have zero complaints whatsoever. The environment was great, the food was great, the customer service was great. Even the background music was perfect."

"I love this place. Clean and spacious with a great atmosphere. The staff is very pleasant. The Plain Wings are anything but that. They are fried to perfection, juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside with plenty of seasoning. Add some ranch dressing and you can’t find better wings. The Onion Rings were very good. Just the right amount of onions vs batter. Browned and not greasy. The Fried Chicken Salad is great, a huge bowl of greens topped with purple onions, egg, cheese, tomato and lots of golden fried chicken and croutons. Quaint eating area outside is available. If you can’t find parking in the front, there is plenty across the street."

"This is a spacious and clean with ample parking, restaurant but let’s talk food. The roasted wings are seasoned just right, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. If you don’t like sauce, these have a lot of taste and without the mess. The ranch dressing is homemade and delicious. Smoked Cuban Sandwich, this was a pulled pork and smoked ham sandwich, very good combination. The onion rings are perfection. Evenly cut onion slices, Light flour batter and not greasy at all. Added to my review…lunch specials!!! Plain wings and onion rings are the perfect combo for lunch. The chicken fingers are fantastic, crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. Pinto beans fried okra, cooked to perfection, everything was huge portions. Different specials everyday. The service was excellent. Very helpful with recommendations and very attentive during our visit. We will definitely return to try the rest of the menu. Consistently good food every visit!"

"The service was really good. I ordered the trashcan fries, the pulled pork had an intense Smokey flavor (not overpowering). The overall dish was good. I also ordered the blackberry cobbler, I wasn’t a fan of the taste nor the serving size. It came in a small cup and didn’t have much crust. Overall, I would visit again."

"Daily lunch specials are good and great price. Food could have been a little warmer and that's the only reason for lower score. Good service and plenty of food for the price. Small cup of dessert is included."

"Food was amazing. Generous portions and friendly staff. We had the build your own Mac bowl. Trash fries. Ash Attack pizza. Would highly recommend."

"Tried this stop yesterday for the 1st time...old warehouse setting, very cool big bar,rustic brick. We had the pulled pork mac n cheese bowl and the trashcan fries. They don't skimp on portions here mac n cheese is easily 2 meals and PLENTY of fries and pork in that can!!! Tried the slaw too, a little dry for my liking I prefer more mayo base but was crisp and crunchy!!!.. server was attentive and friendly. I'm a little confused w the music it was older classical but there must be some significance to it. Definitely will stop again prices are VERY reasonable"

"We were in town for the first time visiting the imagination place just down the street and decided to try them out. The staff were all friendly and took superb care of our crazy little crew. The food was delicious, our kids have an artificial dye allergy and they went out of their way to make aure they could eat the fried pickles. Love this place and will definitely be back"
