"Before he opened his flagship Mobile restaurant, chef Jim Smith was a champion of Alabama-sourced ingredients on Seasons 14 and 16 of Bravo’s Top Chef. After his top 10 finish, the local chef brought his convictions to The Hummingbird Way Oyster Bar, a casually elegant space where plain wooden chairs and white wainscoting invite you to sit back, relax, and dig into gulf-caught seafood and modern Southern cuisine. As its name suggests, the restaurant heavily features oysters on its menu in a simple tasting course, as a starter bathed in bacon sherry butter sauce, and in hearty mains like seafood gumbo. Whatever you do, don’t skip the buttery biscuit service. The Hummingbird Way Oyster Bar is closed on Mondays." - Sarah Bisacca
