30 Essential Restaurants to Know in Birmingham, Alabama
"Demitri’s is one of Homewood’s oldest restaurants — it opened under another name and across the street from its current location in 1961 and remains one of Birmingham’s top spots for barbecue and breakfast. Although barbecue is at Demitri’s core, the classic spot offers a few Greek staples and even a Greek catering service (founder and owner Demitri Nakos immigrated from Greece to Birmingham in 1955). The breakfast here is the stuff of legends, some come early and don’t let the crowding at the front deter you — and don’t pass up the queso grits." - Sarra Sedghi
