Dawson's Burgers Wings & Fries — Restaurant in Birmingham

I stopped at Dawsons hooing to get homemade ice cream. Howeverthe ice cream palor portion was closed down. That didn't stop me from checking out this hole in the wall (my kinda place). Ms. Dawson was extremely nice and patient wich me as i couldn't choose between a burger or fried chicken. Im so glad i chose the chicken. Omgoodness!! She cooks everything to order. And i didn't mind waiting, especially for fleshly prepared food. When she gave me my box and i popped it open, everything was placed with care and love!! I could tell she loved cooking for ppl. And i loved my food!! The wings and fries were perfecto!! Crisp hot and with a light batter that crunch when i bit into the wing and the fries piping hot lightly salted and so good! Not muxhy and sweated out. I enjoyed every bite. I tos Ms Dawson.. "Ms Dawson!!!! Ill be back!!" If you're ever on 4th ave N and see the shop trimmed in red!! Stop in!! It's just right for a delicious lunch or breakfast....

I went there yesterday because I had a taste for wings and I wanted to try something different. When I walked in, it reminded me of my great grandmother's home by the smell. I tried to ignore and ordered my food. I sat down and leaned back in the booth and it almost went all the way back. The tables were sticky and the lady at the register was also the cook. She was scratching her hair and didn't wash her hands. That was the last straw. I asked for my money back and left....

I've been to Mexico, Korea and other sketchy places. This tops them all. Dawson's is an old sticky bar that someone (presumably Dawson) threw some old white fridges and a fryer into and called it a restaurant.

I was the only person in the place from 12:00noon until my food was finally ready at 12:45. I sat at bench and fell through. I bumped the table and it completely broke. The food could've made a goat puke.

Do yourself a favor and stay away...
