About

The Forest Grill is a stunning restaurant which serves creative fare made from wholesome ingredients. With Executive Chef Nick Janutol in the kitchen, you can expect delicious and whimsical meals crafted from what nature provides. Inspired by French, Italian and contemporary American culinary traditions, seasonal and local ingredients are used to create meals which are brilliant in their simplicity and flavor. Enjoy the elegant surroundings and urban vibe as you feast on small plates like the duck confit with parsnip and figs, or the farm egg with hen of the woods mushrooms and a Madeira sabayon. Pastas like the cauliflower ravioli are always made-from-scratch, and entrees like the lamb shank with a chick pea ragu or the ribeye with Bordelaise sauce are exceptional. The full bar not only offers a carefully chosen selection of complementary wines, but the cocktails are as thoughtfully chosen and masterfully mixed. Any meal at the Forest is bound to be special, but reservations are recommended so call today and enjoy a unique dining experience in Birmingham.
