Looking for different types of Bourbons. The store is a great place and the employees are the best and quite helpful.

I began to write this as I left the restaurant, but decided to sit on it for a few days since the experience was so awkward in such a brief few moments.. Dunno if the owner was annoyed that I had to look at a menu, since I’ve never eaten there before, or if he was just having a bad day (we all have bad days)—but if I hadn’t promised my oldest a Rueben for driving me while I recover from a medical procedure, I wouldn’t have stayed. the flippancy with which my questions about anything specifically recommended on the menu seemed to be a true annoyance for the person who took my order. That person was one of the owners. I am a Vestavia local, and had been waiting to eat here for several years just due to inability to order online or via phone (they never answer). Thursday, we finally went in, and it was packed out. People clearly love this place. Having, said that, it is a shadow of what I expected from such a beloved local spot—it is, perhaps, best suited to regulars who walk in, know the team, and enjoy the time they spend there. I can say, personally, that I was pleased with the time it took for them to give us our order (we did take-out due to the concentration of diners, and lack of space (outside patio was wet from rainfall). I was more than a bit bothered by the visible frustration from the man who took my order, a let-down considering how many peers had recommended the place to me over the years. I didn’t let that stop us, though. When we got home I took images of the food to show what you get for the price, to include here. On its own, the food was fine, but with prices comparable to other niche sandwich shoppes, the portions and ingredients left quite a bit to be desired. I don’t aim to knock the food, I merely meant to state that in comparison to other delis, namely Publix of all places, I am inclined to only spend money at Diplomat again in the even I get something truly specific, such as the Lox, etc.

I have been a customer for years and loved the beer cheese soup. We got some for take out and it was inedible. Very salty and didn’t taste a thing like it ever tasted. Not one hint of cheese whatsoever. I called to let them know and the young management was very rude and said “sorry, have a good day!”. That’s terrible business. I’m not that picky and would have just ate it if it was even close to being ok. Will not be back, they lost my business, it’s sad that it’s not like it used to be.

Very disappointed in service and food. I understand they have some special sandwiches that they’re known for, but our entrees were unappetizing. Our server was close to being rude.

I was in there long. Maybe they should have Someone disinfecting those touched items. Place is small enough for it

Management needs to get it together. June allocation was a total disaster. Other employees are great. Moved on to another store for good. Very disappointed in the Vestavia store.

Yeah, all good. Staff is helpful and friendly, store clean and well organized, but why the hell do we need ABC stores? When did we repeal the 17th amendment? I would like to buy Cachaca and other spirits from around the world, would like to pick up a bottle while grocery shopping, would like to see competition, when did Alabama become a nanny state? Going to an ABC store reminds me that we are not free and have to bow to prude puritans.

I mean...it's the liquor store. C'mon. It can't be bad. But these folks are truly nice on top of the fact that, hey THEY HAVE LIQUOR!
