Green Acres is known for its delicious soul food and friendly service, especially from "Momma". The wings and catfish are highly praised. Be prepared for long lines and potential waits, but customers say it's worth it. Some complain about inconsistent hours and parking.

Opinions de Green Acres Restaurant Ensley
Green Acres is practically an institution at this point and for good reason. The food is amazing, the service is friendly (its not always quick, but the lines are crazy for a reason), and did i mention the food is amazing? If you're ever in the birmingham metro, Green Acres is as necessary a stop as the Statue of Liberty or the Golden Gate Bridge. If you think I'm exaggerating, you just haven't had the food yet.
Pretty busy almost every time I'm there but it's worth the wait
The only one with good friendly service. Momma so sweet who hands you the food. The chicken was cooked perfect.
I rarely go to Green Acres but every so often I need a little “comfort” food. The employees here were extremely friendly, the food was good. They have no control of the foolery that walks through the door. I wish that people could suppress the bad attitudes until they leave. The patrons makes it NOT kid friendly.
If you like Spike Lee movies, come here and spend an afternoon. Used to be more of these, but its still the real deal. Read the menu online, watch Crooklyn and "Do the Right Thing". Come for the food, order from the menu WITHOUT ASKING ONE DAMN QUESTION. Sit down and eat it and order a dessert, then eat that too. Managers special with a slice of Ts cake. Sweet tea. Maybe a side of fried okra. Catfish is good too. Go. Don't take pictures You're welcome.
Very fast Food is always hot and workers are very friendly
Kindly greeted with skill and grace perfection crispy fully cooked well sauced wings Honey mustard I prefer more subtle (less sweet than others) Wings were demolished No Photo Op onion rings minus four rings March 6, 2023 Back for catfish extra fish fries with salt pepper hot sauce Two massive filets Yowzah! The people are lovely and kind. 3-27-2025 Catfish filets n fries all the way Yummy!
We FINALLY got to stop in today after having to pass by in our Semi for almost two years and OH MY GOODNESS the food really will make you wanna slap ya mamma!!!! FANTASTIC food and people, especially the sweet little lady taking the orders. We will definitely be back...A LOT!! A+++++!!!
The only complaint was the wait. Once you get your food, you forget about the wait. You won't get anything that's been sitting under a heat lamp! Normally get chicken but ventured out and got a catfish filet plate. THREE pieces at cap ds wouldn't equal one of Green Acres filets. Some of the best I've ever eaten.
Best soul food southern comfort food you will find in central Alabama. . . Period. The staff are amazing at quickly moving thru the long line of hungry folks always there. Don't let the long line keep you from stopping cause I am telling you they move with lightning speed. Tell em ALL THE WAY. TRY THE CHICKEN LIVERS WITH BBQ SAUCE, SALT , PEPPER AND ONION RINGS. . . . don't forget the sweet tea
Even though you have to stand in the line for 30 minutes for your food. There wings and juices are the best these parts of Alabama have to offer hands down!!! They need a bigger waiting area and parking lot bc those 2 things suck! But the food so good they still get 5 stars!!!
Always bussin! Hot and fresh! 10/10 highly recommend. We had the 3 manager specials and the whiting filet plate all the way with lemon pepper. Cooked to perfection and was still hot when I made to back to my location.
I love this location cause it's closer there. Tilipia fish is the best. Clearly, they don't read the orders cause no bread an fries fried harder doesn't get recognized, but I love the food .
Very hectic and crowded. Parking is challenging. My colleagues love the green light special...all the way.
The store is a walk up and order at the counter, so there's no restaurant seating. We immediately were able to walk up order and received our food within 10 minutes. I ordered two of the exact same lunch specials which were two pieces of white fillet, three wings, a side of French fries, and three pieces of Texas toast loaf bread. The seasoning on the chicken and the fish was minimal, which means the main flavor of the food was the hot sauce and mustard sauce they use to top. I enjoyed the hot sauce and mustard topping, but would have enjoyed a little more salt and pepper perhaps in the meat itself. The french fries were soft and cooked perfection, and the loaf bread was fresh. I got two cups of ranch to dip my fries in that was homemade and delicious. The entire meal cost me $18.72.
Lmao y'all they charging for light ice. Lmao omg she said 50¢ for light ice.
I got about 40 dollars worth of food. Honestly I hate saying this because staff amazing. But food was so disappointing to the point I wonder how they had so much business. The area, didn’t seem to have many options so I contributed it to that. Maybe I just went on a off day so I’d like to give things another try but I’ll keep you updated this time they missed mark on all levels
The sauce on the food is ridiculous, somebody need taste the sauce before they serve it. The sauce is what makes the chicken. It's sad we don't make sure we are serving our best. The only thing was good was the lemonade
My food wasn't hot at all. I thought that was the whole point of waiting for your food. I paid extra for no ice in my drink and it was 90% ice. I was truly disappointed.
If you guys close at 5:30, you need to change the time online. I drove all the way from Hoover for y’all to say it close at 5:30 instead of 6:00
I went to Green Acres in Birmingham to get chicken and fries, but the experience was very disappointing. The lady at the counter never even asked me what I wanted to order — she just kept calling out orders while the place was packed and people were wrapped around the building waiting. The service was slow and unorganized, and a lot of customers still didn’t have their food. I just looked around and decided to walk out. I wasn’t about to wait all day for fries and chicken wings.
Always closed early in my experience. No chairs for seating and no proper advertisements nor good deals. Worst eatery in ensley in my opinion. You're better off eating in Hueytown at Publix for soul food or Forestdales Walmart. 😐
I Normally order breakfast at breakfast time. Today I ordered a burger. Next time I will know to stick with breakfast. That burger was cooked the day before, you can tell fresh from reheat. Especially when your burger tastes like a burnt piece of sausage. Apparently it was reheated on a flat grill, after cooking sausage. Salmonella all day! You can reheat at home, not a public place.
