" I absolutely loved my experience here! We celebrated a birthday here and the staff made everything so special. The desserts were something else; they beautifully presented and tasted heavenly. It’s definitely on the pricey side, but sometimes you just need to splurge and enjoy the finer things in life. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing great things, I finally tried Highlands. The experience was nothing short of magical. The ambiance of the restaurant made it feel like a luxurious escape. I ordered the veal, which melted in my mouth and was perfectly balanced with the accompaniments. The service was immaculate, as wait staff seemed genuinely invested in our enjoyment. If you’re in Birmingham, don't miss out! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Highlands was a dream come true. The food was authentic Southern cuisine with a fancy twist. Every dish was crafted to perfection. The service was stellar, very attentive but not invasive. The only aspect that may deter some is the price point, but in my experience, you definitely get your money’s worth for what you're consuming. Highly recommend planning ahead! " (*Curated Review*)

" Was recommended Highlands by some local friends, and all I can say is WOW! This place lives up to the hype. The grilled venison was delicious and cooked to a perfect medium-rare. The atmosphere was buzzing but also intimate. Our waiter was exceptional, providing great suggestions. The desserts, especially the strawberry cobbler, were a delightful way to end our meal. We will return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was quite disappointed with my meal overall. The service was good, but I had the steak, and it was not cooked to my order, leaving me disappointed. The other meals at our table were great, but mine just didn't hit the mark. I expected more given the restaurant’s reputation. " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing food and service at Highlands! The ambiance is perfect for a romantic evening out. We were greeted warmly and seated quickly. The highlight was definitely the duck breast and their famous baked grits. Highly recommend the wine pairings too. Would definitely return again! " (*Curated Review*)

It was a bit lively for our taste, but the ambiance was still warm and inviting. Definitely a place to take visitors! " (*Curated Review*)
