My wife and I have eaten at Dale's a number of times, and I'd give it high praise -- both the Riverchase and the Vestavia Hills locations.
The food is outstanding, especially for the modest-to-moderate prices, and the service is always good. The atmosphere is not a major selling point here, as the establishments are one step up from a cafeteria...okay, two steps. Still, there's just not much to complain about. I could easily recommend any of a dozen entrees without fear of contradiction, and their vegetables and breads are excellent, and the variety offered is almost mind-boggling. If you can't find something tempting on the menu, you simply aren't hungry!
A great choice for good food in unpretentious surroundings; and excellent place for families or guests -- in fact, this is a great place to take guests who need an introduction to classic Southern cooking.
