On the Grid : hotbox

"They might’ve cut their teeth at James Beard award-winning chef Frank Stitt’s Bottega, but the owners of hotbox have created a dining experience that's worlds away from that beloved Birmingham institution. Operating out of an unassuming Airstream trailer tucked away on the back patio of Parkside Café, each of the delicious, reasonably priced Asian-influenced dishes—lemongrass fried chicken, pork sausage bánh mì or nam tok beef brisket—is a testament to the inventiveness, attention to detail, and respect for fresh ingredients, masterfully prepared that their white-napkin alma mater is famous for. Oh, and the hotbox burger. The hotbox burger!" - Lewis Communications

Went here to watch the Iron Bowl. I gotta the Nashville hot chicken with fries and some spicy aioli. I would definitely recommend sharing; you get so much food here. The chicken and the fries were seasoned HEAVILY & were both really good. I would definitely go back.

This spot is great. Gal at the counter made ordering super straight forward and quick, and brought us the food inside Good People which was really nice to see they do that. Food is indeed pretty pricey but it's delicious. Worth the cost imo.

Chicken sandwich wasn't cooked through and we had to throw it out. The burger and disco fries were mediocre. I really wanted to try the asian fusion food on the online menu, but the menu was limited in person to burger, fries, or chicken. Didn't live up to the hype at all

Fries/Disco fries were amazing, the saukraut Dawgs horrendous. They tasted sour, something definitely off. An hour later and still going I am sick as a dog. It was the only thing i ate today, and my party shared everything else. Its definitely food poisoning. Not amused!

Not Asian inspired. The food was good but this is American cuisine. It was enjoyable but I selected this spot and walked here and bought multiple things because I was interested in their Asian inspired offerings. This is another example of southern chefs taking Japanese dishes and completely white washing them. I ordered the burger which was delicious but just a burger, perhaps it was not intended to be Japanese influenced. The soba bowl however was disappointing. The soba noodles were cut into small pieces which fundamentally goes against the tradition of soba noodles which should be kept long and slurped. Much harder to eat when they are cut up. Sounds silly but it’s an essential part of eating a soba dish. The chicken add on was completely unseasoned. Like zero seasoning whatsoever. Lastly, it was 50% broccoli, the tiny little freezer bag brocolli that had no flavor and tasted frozen. Come here for the vibes and a great burger but do not come here for Asian flavor cause you won’t find it - at least not in the dishes I had.

Food was phenomenal. Wings were delicious. Got the loaded fries, the beer cheese is the best ever.

If you're at Good People, it's a great way to get food. They even brought it inside to the table. Great service and food!

We've been here multiple times. Of course, the best time to go is in the spring/summer. The setting/ambiance is lovely and the food quality pairs well with it. I haven't had the chance to try everything YET, but that lemongrass fried chicken is wonderful -- I'm stuck on it so maybe one day I'll venture out to another choice of meal. The service is always fantastic and they never show any unprofessionalism at all, just great service. Wasn't a fan of the burger when we split it, but it was just a basic burger so...take that how you want. The dogs, chicken, wontons are all good and will be back to try more.

I went here for food late night when I got hungry because it is right outside of my apartment! They offer Asian fusion foods, and the ambiance is nice because of the lights and the brewery inside the building, and when the weather's nice, it feels nice to sit outside! I ordered a hotbox burger which was served after about 15 minutes of ordering, and it was pretty good! It is more of a takeout area, so the utensils are plastic. The prices of the food are also ok! The only reason that I take off a star is because they misspelled "Banh Mi" as "Bahn Mi" on their website.
