Review by Eriberto Schoen

KJ's Restaurant Bar & Grill is a cozy gem for soul food lovers in Birmingham! 🌟 I stopped by for a late-night bite and was excited to try the shrimp and okra. While the okra was a hit, the fried fish was a bit soggy and lacked crunch.

The pork chops and shrimp came well-battered, but slightly salty for my taste. The friendly service kept the atmosphere inviting, and the beer selection was great! 🍺 Definitely worth a visit for its comfort food vibes, but I'd advise asking for extra seasoning on the chicken next time. Overall, I’m looking forward to my next visit...!
