Tips from locals
Chef Frank Stitt's Chez Fonfon is a casual, bustling bistro in the heart of Five Points South transporting you to Paris, Lyon or Nice. Since opening in 2000, this homage to comforting French fare, including steak frites, sautéed trout with brown butter and escargots, has garnered local and national acclaim. Belle Époque café tables and a 100 year-old etched glass door from Lyon lend authenticity amid cozy, inviting surrounds. Bistro traditions are celebrated every day, along with wines from the Loire, Rhône and Languedoc.

Immaculate French cuisine and easily one of the best burgers in Birmingham
Best French bistro. Hamburger Fonfon with comté & pommes frites (rated the one of the top 10 best Hamburger in USA), Shrimp and avocado salad with sauce rémoulade and Coconut cake are my favorites. You must make reservation 2 weeks ahead unless you want to be the lucky one to find a seat at bar.
French food with a southern twist. Get the escargot, chicken liver mousse, or charcuterie and enjoy the best you've ever had!
