For decades, craftspeople from around the world were drawn to Homewood by a common theme - the lure of fire and iron. The ability to wield a spark became their calling card and for these hard-working artisans, food played a key role in their legendary story. Ironwood Kitchen & Cocktails is a tribute to this legacy where iron and fire come together to create elevated comfort food for a new generation in Birmingham.

    Bartender was awesome. Got to our table ordered right away. Waited 48 minutes for our dinner. Venison was cold and chewy and other entree was cold. Meal was comped but still a bad experience.

    We had a lovely evening with our son and his wife, celebrating his birthday. We had drinks, appetizers (loved the bacon and the pimento cheese balls!), entrees and dessert. Our waitress was attentive but didn't intrude in the meal. Ran into other people we knew, so it seemed a popular place even on Tuesday! Fun night all around.

    It was a little price for an appetizer, two drinks and a main meal for one person. Moren than $100 including tip.

    Everything we ordered was excellent. The waitress could have been more attentive but she seemed to be very busy - lots of tables and only her.

    The service was slow but kind. We shared about our gluten allergies but were served an item with breadcrumbs (no mention of them on the menu.). Our dinner was 2.5 hours and we would have preferred a shorter dinner. The lights were brightened for cleanup before we received our dessert/bill.
    Ironwood Kitchen & CocktailsResponded on January 15, 2025
    Hello Rachel, I am devastated to hear how your visit went. I am very sorry that service was slow and equally as sorry that our staff did not follow up with your information about your gluten allergies. Lastly, I would like to apologize for the inconvenience with the lights as you were having your desserts. Please accept our heartfelt apology for what happened during your experience. We hope that you will give us another opportunity in the near future. Ironwood Management Team
