Charming

A fun, energetic tribute to American Southern cuisine. Our dining room is bustling with high-energy just like our great Magic City. Our menus focus on local distilleries and local farms throughout Alabama; the menu is ever changing with only the freshest products on hand. Our dishes are whimsical yet elegant with a feeling of comfort to them.
Roots & Revelry departs from the norm by modernizing fine dining. It’s haute with casual undertones, southern with international influences.

Our Patio is not covered. Patio is weather permitting. In case of inclement weather, we will do our best to accommodate you inside but can not guarantee a table.

Reservations preferred, walk-ins accepted based on availability.

We are allotting 1 1/2 hours for parties of two, 2 hours for parties of four, 2 1/2 hours for parties six or more. Please call us at 205-730-1907 or email robert@roots-revelry.com for any parties over 8 guests.

This restaurant is permanently closed. We made reservations on OpenTable, and when we got to the restaurant, there was a note on the door saying that due to circumstances beyond their control, the restaurant was permanently closed. If you have made reservations, do not go. It appears open table has not removed them from their app.

Charged $120 reservation fee with Restaurant being closed evidently for weeks with no notification. Open Table, take this down so this Restaurant can recover if they decide to reopen after a horrific event of the owner dying.

The restaurant is closed and still taking reservations. This was very disappointing because we made reservations in advance and left us scrambling to find something last minute.

The place is permanently closed. OpenTable caused us to waste time and money because they haven’t updated their stuff. It’s absolutely ridiculous and I am owed something in return.

Restaurant Closed. Although I had a reservation, I was not informed of the closure until I arrived for brunch. I am extremely disappointed to have driven to the restaurant, only to find it closed. The building's condition was also in disrepair, with a noticeable odor of dogs.

The experience was overall positive. The hostess was also the waitress. When it did get busy, they were having to multitask. However was aware of the wait and made a point to apologize. We accepted and understood. Chef delivered food and stated they were short staffed at the time. Food was great and the dessert( bread pudding) was the best i ever had 👍🏾
