"Cozy, but very elegant spot! Extremely surprised by the variety of flavors on the menu. Easily the best spot I’ve been to in Mobile so far!"

"We organized a special post-graduation celebration at The Hummingbird Way Oyster Bar, a charming spot that immediately captured our attention. Our server, Julia, was exceptional—her attentiveness and warmth made us feel truly welcomed throughout the evening. The food we savored was nothing short of exquisite, with each dish beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The drinks complemented our meal perfectly, enhancing the overall experience. The ambiance of the restaurant was inviting and cozy, providing an ideal backdrop for our lively conversations. We never felt rushed, allowing us to fully enjoy each moment of this memorable occasion. Thank you so much for enhancing our day!"

"Very humble yet elegant place. It’s a perfect place for a quaint unfussy meal— to catch up with an old friend or host an intimate celebration. I went on a lunch date with my husband. I got the hanger steak and eggs; he got the flounder. I have no complaints, the service was great and the food was delicious. The hanger steak was perfectly medium rare and the flounder was also cooked well. I liked the blue cheese butter with the steak, but I think a peppercorn sauce or some light gravy would have tied it all together. I also thought the flounder dish was clever, it was cooked southern style with a twist: fried with a light cornmeal crust, swimming in a sweet savory Thai curry sauce. For me, the highlight of my meal was actually the oyster bisque. It was very delicate and savory. The morels gave it a very earthy taste paired with the gulf oysters the flavors was reminiscent of a surf and turf dish. Our server was very friendly and attentive. They were also very accommodating; my husband asked if they could do mocktails. The server asked what he was feeling and he asked for something savory and fruity. They took the time to craft a unique and refreshing drink for him. I thought that was awesome!"

"I will preface by saying I have a bit of experience in this industry, and what Jim Smith does here is magic. We booked a rental at the beautiful Washington Square and did some looking around for a good place to have dinner. We found that Hummingbird Way was nearby, received good reviews, and nice press. We certainly never expected the meal to be an experience. Every single thing we ordered was delicious—and perplexing. I spent too much time analyzing which ingredients were put together to create the final dish. Some flavors I had never tasted in such harmony. I’m happy Mobile has an innovative talent delivering this beautiful experience, and I would drive a long way to specifically enjoy Chef Smith’s talents again. A big thank you to everyone working together to bring such a gift to our evening."

"We had the most amazing brunch today! I can’t believe we hadn’t found this place yet but we will definitely be back! That salmon was chefs kiss!!! If I had to critique anything I would say the crème brûlée was slightly over torched but it was still amazing!"
