I must say that some of the menus look fabulous and some of them don’t tempt me at all. The ones that took my fancy are Fleming’s, The Rugby Grille, and Chen Chow, mainly because I haven’t yet visited these establishments and like what’s on their menus for this special event.
Birmingham Restaurant Week runs February 1-5 & February 8-12.

I'm definitely planning to go to one of the Birmingham restaurants! Restaurant Week comes at a perfect time because of Valentine's Day next week. I'm thinking I'll try one of the fancier restaurants, like Quattro.
Nikki,
It is pretty great timing with Valentines Day! Nice call on Quattro, I haven't been there yet and haven't heard a whole lot about it. We really wanted to do Restaurant Week last year and didn't get around to it. We'll hit at least one place up this year.
