Chez Fonfon

Excellent experience at Chez Fonton. I was in town for work and was surprised to see a restaurant so packed on a Wednesday night. I sat at the bar and the service was fantastic. The bartender recommended an excellent port pairing with my dessert and had me try it as well. The burger with the aioli was excellent and so was their chocolate pots de creme. Would highly recommend eating here and I recommend it to everyone I know visiting Birmingham.

Lunch did not disappoint! I had the mushroom soup appetizer, which was served hot (unlike the lukewarm soup in many restaurants) and tasted divine! For lunch I enjoyed the Highlands crab cake, roasted potatoes and haricots. Tastiest crab I've had in years! For dessert, I debated between several options that were too pretty to eat, but opted for the Basque Cake. All in all, exceptional meal and service. Chef Stitt's table side visit was the cherry on top!

Amazing food and service. The appetizers (escargot and chicken liver mousse) were perfect. I wish we would have taken a picture of our entrees but we ate them as soon as they got to the table! My husband ordered the coq au vin which was delicious and I had the mussels which were also incredible. Next time we are definitely getting dessert.
