Shift Kitchen & Cocktails

Yum yum. The vibe was nice, food was amazi g. You must try the lobster taco. The staff were friendly and helpful. We did not have. Reservation and they hooked us up. Will be back for sure.

I've came here twice (Birmingham location) in less than a week lol. Each time was great. On my first visit my waiter's name was Chris and he was outstanding. He explained every item on the menu, he checked up on me in a timely fashion, just overall great service from him. The Bartender Nate made the best cocktails (I had a Lemon Drop and a Strawberry Lemon Drop) He even came to the table to introduce himself and made sure the drink was to my liking. Food was good, I really liked the garlic aoli with the fries. Fried lobster tacos were delicious. Filet Sliders were good. I'm not a big fan of pretzel buns so I would have preferred a different type of bread but overall they were good My second visit I sat at the Bar. Mike was the Bartender and he made me a Cosmopolitan. I ordered Sweet & Spicy Shrimp, Scallops, Pei Mussels and Grilled Wings. Everything was tasty but the wings. If you're a fan of char-grilled taste, than you'll like the wings.

I almost don’t even want to write how good this place is in fear that it will be even busier! I have been twice. During happy hour food is 40% off and the color red is half off. My favorite dish is the filet tips followed closely by the scallops. There is a parking lot just across the street that if you park less than 2 hours it is free. Service has been great both times I went. Absolutely will go back!

We came after dinner for drinks for our anniversary. We met Chris and Scott and they were amazing! They had great energy and they were so nice. I would highly recommend going when they are both working for a great experience! The drinks were great as well!

Went to Shift Kitchen & Cocktails after a show and it was very enjoyable! The food and service were great and the atmosphere was lively with excellent music. I highly recommend Shift Kitchen & Cocktails and will be back soon!

I have heard a lot of good things about this place, and more so that it’s a great spot to come late night in the weekend but a reservation is needed. Decided to come check it out and grab some food and I would have to say I was a bit dissapointed in the place. They only serve salads and appetizers for food and they were mediocre at best. The truffle fries were really good, but everything else was nothing special. The calamari was not good at all and I would not recommend it, nor would I recommend the filet sliders. The service and atmosphere and drinks were good, but food was not worth the price. Note that they have 40% off apps every day from 5-7pm

I came here for my birthday over the summer and the food and drinks were great! They also had nice happy hour deals. Definitely worth checking out!

Visited this place on a whim last Friday night with my husband and SIL. We didn’t see anyone at the host stand so we sat at the bar. The bartender informed us of happy hour ending soon and encouraged us to select a few discounted items. Didn’t know it but they offer 40% off apps every day from 5-7pm. They exclusively serve small plates (shareable salads and appetizers) and craft cocktails. On special we ordered the color red and a vodka/grapefruit (the bartender rifted on the basic B recipe); also had a few more rounds of drinks - basic b*tch, n*ked and famous, life is hard and my best life (favorite). Drinks were amazing, perfectly made. Food service was fast and apps were tasty. We had ahi tuna, spicy shrimp, filet sliders and scallop special. All really liked the sweet & spicy shrimp and the scallops. Despite being tender both the ahi and sliders were lacking something (a bit of salt and more sauce). This wouldn’t be my recommendation for dining, even on special. We loved the atmosphere; it was decorated festively for the holidays… beyond that it seemed like a cozy, romantic setting. Plan to be back for date night cocktails soon.
