We came here last night & it was phenomenal. The bartender waited on us & made great suggestions. We had signature cocktails, and oysters to start out with. For dinner we got the ribeye and the macaroni and cheese then for dessert we got a couple espresso martinis. The food to the service was fantastic! Great experience

I had the pleasure of dining at this beautiful upscale restaurant, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. The atmosphere was elegant yet inviting—perfectly balanced for a relaxed but refined evening. From the moment we arrived, the staff was attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming.
The menu offered a thoughtfully curated selection, and each dish was presented with care and creativity. The flavors were well-balanced, fresh, and clearly crafted with intention. Every bite reflected quality ingredients and expert preparation. The drinks were equally impressive—crafted to complement the meal and elevate the overall experience.
What truly stood out was the attention to detail, from the presentation of the food to the seamless service throughout the evening. This restaurant delivers not just a meal, but a full dining experience. I would highly recommend it for a special occasion, date night, or anyone looking to enjoy an elevated dining experience.

My wife and I visited Armour House for the first time over the weekend and sadly it did NOT live up to the hype…

There’s certain expectations we’ve grown accustomed too when visiting a high end / expensive restaurant, like Armour House, which were clearly not met (negatives / positives below).

ATMOSPHERE (NEGATIVES):
– Very Loud (due to restaurant size).
– Felt Crowded / Close seating (we could smell the cologne/perfume on the people sitting next to us).
– Special Occasion (Anniversary):
NO special accommodations besides a verbal acknowledgment from our waiter… (NO complimentary dessert, card, rose petals, candles, special seating, etc.), which is standard at other high end restaurants across Birmingham and even ATL…
– Restrooms (limited due to space)

FOOD (NEGATIVES):
– Undercooked Steak (Australian Wagyu beef tenderloin 8oz): My wife requested her steak to be cooked “medium” and even said to “error on the side of medium well”.
However, the steak came out “medium rare” and was even pre-sliced when it was brought to the table… so it was clearly visible… The waiter *did offer* to take it back to have it “cooked more”, but she declined (not the type of person to send food back), so she barely ate any of the $89 steak…

My steak (Denver Cut – 10oz) was boarder line “rare”, but I didn’t mind (ordered medium rare), but that definitely prevented her from trying any of mine as well…

– Braised mushrooms: requested a smaller portion (for 1), but never received any feedback on if that was possible or not…
– Whipped Potatoes: a little bland
– Manchego Mac & Cheese: not my favorite… a little bland as well and cheese was interesting… not for me.

Very disappointing…

**Note: when submitting our reservation, we DID state that it was our anniversary…

———————————————————————

Atmosphere (Positives):
– Nice Bar Area / wine area
– Friendly Waiter
– Fairly attentive staff
(only ran out of water a few times)

FOOD (Positives):
– Bread Service – delicious
– Caesar Salad – delicious (large)
(only 4 pieces though for $8)
– Crispy Brussels – delicious
– Australian Wagyu Denver cut 10oz – Different but good (even though it was a little undercooked for a medium rare)

Overall I’m not sure if we’ll be back based what we paid for our experience.

Perry’s / Fleming’s / BrickTops / Little Betty / Helen (etc) are still on Top.

5 Star Experience…Where do I start. One of the best overall dining experiences. Walking into the Armour House you can just feel all of the history of this majestic building. The hostess make sure you feel welcomed as soon as you walk in. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly. Our food was served just as we ordered. Perfectly seasoned, hot and fresh. The appetizer came out quickly and was perfect. The entrees were large portions and definitely shareable. All is all a great dinner and it worth another visit.
Please ensure you make reservations well in advance.

Armour House never fails to make this the most important dinner experience you’ll ever have. We’ve celebrated our anniversary and birthdays here and always have the most lovely time. Truly a special place.

The food was amazing! The portions are large enough to share. So don’t let the prices deter you. From the Cesar salad to the wood grilled oysters and then the…Lobster Mac & cheese is to die for. Have Mercy!! I’m not one to eat mac & cheese when I dine out, but this right here was one of those times I did and I’m glad about it. The ribeye was cooked to perfection and taste delicious. I had drinks, but they weren’t anything memorable. Elizabeth was great! She had a great personality and smile. She was very professional and humorous. Can’t wait to go back and try something different.

One of the best dining experiences I’ve had in the Southeast! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed by a fabulous atmosphere and stunning architecture that set the tone for a memorable evening. Every detail was thoughtfully designed, creating an ambiance that felt both upscale and inviting.

The food was incredible, with each dish showcasing perfectly balanced flavors that clearly showed the chef’s expertise and attention to detail. Every bite was exceptional, from appetizers to dessert. And our server, Paolo, was fantastic! He was attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure every aspect of our meal was flawless.

If you’re looking for a truly unforgettable dining experience, this place is a must-visit. Can’t wait to return!

OMG….. one of the best places I have ever been. Brooke was excellent and very attentive. I had a half dozen oysters, the bone-in pork chop & the caesar salad. ABSOLUTELY fantabulous. Also, I sat at the raw bar where I could watch the food being prepared

This is a very upscale restaurant in the heart of Birmingham. The food and service were absolutely top-notch. After a coctail and a starter of Waygu Meatballs, my wife and I shared a bottle of wine from their extensive”Wine Library”. I enjoyed a premium cut of Waygu Beef. My wife had the Short Rib Risotto. Sides were Sautéed Okra and Succotash. Everything was wonderful!

Atmosphere completely unmatched in Birmingham, wonderful. Our server, Wren (also bartender) gave excellent recommendations, from appetizers to wine pairings, and everything in between. We were celebrating a birthday and he went out of his way to ensure that we were well taken care of and that the birthday was recognized. Will go back asap and definitely request a seat at the bar with Wren! We enjoyed caviar service, oysters, the market fish (flounder), lobster salad, wagyu, wine pairings, martini, Mac and cheese, mushrooms, cappuccino, cheesecake, and pistachio gelato. Everything was amazing, and service and atmosphere to boot, 10/10 recommend.
