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.

    The Thanksgiving special was good but nothing I different from what I would have cooked at home. Not what I expected from a nice restaurant, or the price point. The portion was good though, and like I said, it was good, just nothing special.

    This was our first time dining at this establishment & we chose Thanksgiving. It's beautiful, relaxing & a nice atmosphere. My husband, daughter & I all got different items from the menu, but we would all agree the food was good, but it wasn't hot.

    Wonderful atmosphere and outstanding service. We came for Thanksgiving and although they had a traditional Turkey plate, we thought it was a bit pricey at $46. The food was exceptional, especially the quail and the Brussels sprouts. I would have given a 5 rating on the food except the Filet for $44 looked like it had been cut in half horizontally and was the thinnest Filet I have ever seen and the flavor was just average. Overall, it was a great experience; just disappointed in the Filet.

    We arrived and were seated immediately, given cocktail list, wine list, and the menu. Our server was very attentive, giving us ample time to survey the menu. We ordered cocktails and a starter. The pimiento cheese fritters with green tomato marmalade were very tasty and a great start to our meal. The grilled scallops arrived perfectly cooked on a bed of tasty vegetable risotto, accompanied by fresh bread and warm and seasoned olive oil. Our friendly, attentive server and the delicious cocktails and food made for a perfect evening out.

    Overall great experience. Waitress Jasmine was excellent. The hostess not so much. The only thing is the food which was all delicious could have been hotter.

    Ironwood is my favorite Sunday brunch. I especially enjoy the ‘southern breakfast. My friend usually orders a chicken dish, I don’t recall the exact name of the dish. But we do enjoy eating there

    Our server Nick was great! Very accommodating and polite. Though my entire party didn’t enjoy their meals, I did. I was the birthday girl and I personally had a 10/10 experience. I will be back for sure to try your other menus, but especially for the drinks.
