Birmingham is very lucky to have Frank and his restaraunts. This french inspired cuisine is absolutley wonderful. It is really fun to wind down on the back porch after work with a glass of wine and play boche' (sp?)ball. The lunch and dinner here are always wonderful and Frank makes sure the wait staff knows the menu forwards and backwards.... more
