The Bottle - Huntsville

One of the best places to eat for a fancy dinner in Huntsville. Their scallops are my go-to meal! Wine list is pretty good but you have to spend a good amount on a decent bottle of wine. I would recommend to stay away from their $100 wine and food pairing days. Hardly any food for 7 courses and for a $100 per person. I've rented out their chefs table and the menu was pretty good!

Food/Drinks: The Angus filet was cooked to medium rare perfection, the mashed potatoes were silky, and the broccoli was perfectly steamed and had a great red pepper flavor. My husband had the venison. It was both cooked and cut unevenly, but it was very flavorful and hearty. The avocado fried green tomatoes were delicious, and the butter beer was probably one of my all time favorite cocktails. The okra salad was also good, but I wouldn't order it again. Service: 10/10 everyone was helpful and friendly. The people really make this place great. Atmosphere: The seating arrangements could be better. Some of the tables need more space between them. The couple at the next table was within an arm's length from where I was sitting (bar side, in front of the window), which is pretty off putting when you're trying to have a romantic and intimate meal. We plan to go back, but will hopefully be seated elsewhere. The decor/general feel of the restaurant is relaxed and upscale in a vintage way, the music is even better, and the chairs are surprisingly comfortable.

This is an outstanding restaurant that is definitely worth a visit. The food was delicious, and the staff were exceptionally knowledgeable and well-informed.

The food was excellent, and the waitress provided great service. However, I was disappointed that, despite making a reservation for the dining room, we were seated in the bar area, which was somewhat drafty and chilly. It was unclear why we were placed there when there were tables available in the dining room. We only realized we weren't in the dining room after we had already taken our seats.

Always great service, good food.. Always compliments to the chef..
