Today was about my third time dining at Chez Fonfon. I 've had nothing less than an excellent experience each time! Hard to get dinner reservations here, which is perfectly understandable. Not many places to dine that offer excellent quality, good food, great service, an on top ambiance and atmosphere consistently with each dining experience. Dined at lunch time today. Sat at the bar until my table reservation time. Sipped on very tasty cherry coke on the rocks (lol! , that was the best I 've ever had! Ordered the lobster and shrimp BLT, of course everything I 've ever eaten here has been superb tasting. Yet, as I stated to the waitress, I must admit that BLT was also the best BLT I 've ever...
One of Birmingham's prized fine dining restaurants! Fonfon is super popular, so make sure to make a reservation and come early to find parking. The service here is always consistent and reliable. The wait staff is very nice and attentive; I always ask for their recommendations before deciding on a meal. I've had everything from their cheese board, daily fish special, burger (which is claimed to be the best in the city), and almost all of the desserts. Their absolute best item is the coconut pecan cake. I've gotten a slice after my meal, to-go, and even ordered a whole cake for an event!
Loved Chez Fonfon! Tasty food with impeccable service. My husband and I went for dinner before a show. Highly recommend getting reservations. You won't regret it. Hope to save room for dessert next time since we're definitely returning. (Traducido por Google) Me encantó Chez Fonfon! Comida sabrosa con un servicio impecable. Mi esposo y yo fuimos a cenar antes de un espectáculo. Recomiendo encarecidamente conseguir reservas. No te arrepentirás. Espero dejar espacio para el postre la próxima vez ya que definitivamente regresaremos.
Chez FonFon is a Frank Stith restaurant. What's not to like about a gourmet French restaurant with French decor, menu, and service. Even the building itself looks French. Everything is delicious with a European flair. Watch for the crab cake special. And the salade nicoise is perfection. They always have in house pastries, desserts, the most delicious butter in town, soups with stratospheric flavor, and condiments that top the dishes off with flavor bursts only Frank Stith could produce. Try Chez FonFon. It doesn't disappoint.

This place was amazing. I was in Birmingham for a work trip, and I liked the restaurant so much I went twice. I sat at the bar both times solo without a reservation, but it did get pretty busy so try and get a reservation if you can! The Trout is amazing (my favorite). The burger is amazing. Also the Coconut pecan cake is a must. There were other appetizers that people next to me ordered, and they all looked great. The bartenders were very knowledgable and made me drinks
I was visiting in Birmingham for the weekend and a friend highly suggested this as it?s one of his favorite restaurants in the city. The restaurant has an authentic French bistro feel and a nice vibe. The staff are very friendly and the food is delicious. It?s a fine dining experience. I had the Bibb salad, chicken liver mousse to start and for the main the steak and frites. Do not miss out on the coconut pecan cake and lemon meringue! The dessert was the cherry on top.
10/10 recommend this gem of a restaurant. The ambiance is low lit and romantic, however a little loud since it's smaller and packed, but no complaints here. Our waiter was top notch. Cordial, explained the menu well, never let our drinks drop an inch, and very attentive. The salad appetizer was delicious. Plenty for two to share. Husband had the special fish of the night (forgot the name) over zucchini/squash/some sauce which was cooked to perfection. My steak with
Chez Fonfon is one of my personal favorites and a must visit each time we come to Birmingham. Make sure you plan your visit and make reservations in advance. On this particular visit we started with the soup of the day and a salad. The soup was a white bean and bacon. It had a creamy yet savory flavor. We ordered the poulet rouge with duck fat potatos and the veal medallions (Tuesday special). The poulet or chicken had a rich depth of complex flavors. The veal

The food is amazing. This coconut pecan cake is a Janes Beard award winner. So good. Every dish was perfect. At the bar you can get fresh boiled eggs from the chefs farm.
