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.

    We had the best experience. Drove in from Dallas and got to the restaurant pretty late, but they accommodated a full dinner for us considering we were 20 minutes to closing. One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time! I would highly recommend the fillet to anyone!!! Absolutely love the hotel, but the restaurant took it to another notch

    Our server for brunch was Q, and he was very attentive and super helpful with picking a drink after the bartender informed him most of everything we wanted they couldn’t make. Would absolutely dine here again, because the service (other than the bartender being out of everything apparently) was super great!! 10/10 experience food and all!

    Our sever, Miracle, was fabulous. And the fish and chips were great. "Chips" were actually large potato wedges. I would prefer smaller cut, but still good.

    This is a cool place and I’ve been before when it was better but this time wasn’t as good … small gnats flying around everywhere which isn’t their fault. Hamburgers were great. Two of us got Cobb Salad and it looked great but the dressing was not great. They called it Green Goddess but it was more like munched up flavorless herbs of some sort and I think I tasted anchovies but maybe just the taste of the herb. Server was very sweet but very slow. However, nobody else seemed to be working except her. Hope it’s better next time.

    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.
