The Hummingbird Way Oyster Bar

This was one of the few places open early afternoon around 4pm, which was one of the only times my wife and I were available to have a date meal. This met all expectations, it was not busy (at that time we had the place to ourselves), food was delicious. I listened to the recommendations from the waitress and was not disappointed. We had the biscuit service, marinated crab claws, pulled duck and grits, wine. Highly recommend. Location is odd, seems to be just another house in a neighborhood, parking is available in a little lot nearby. Parking: Small parking lot around the back and side just a small bit down the block.

We met some friends here for dinner tonight. Excellence from drinks to dessert! For starters we had the crab claws and yellowfin tuna. Both were perfectly cooked and delicious. My old fashioned was spot on. My wife had the chicken pot pie and really enjoyed it and I had what was probably the best crab cake dish I’ve ever had. It was lightly breaded and full of fresh lump crab meat - absolutely recommend this dish!! The grits and sauce are served with the crab cake are phenomenal! I can’t say enough good things about this restaurant. We will definitely be back!

Ambience 10:10 was good, very relaxing atmosphere and nice taste in music. Service 9:10, was very good, attentive server. Food 8:10, removing meat from the duck (leg quarter) was a major PITA using cutlery, but it was tasty. Too nice a place to go caveman on the drumstick. Seve a damned breast portion, easy to cut and eat so I'm not almost repeatedly at risk of slinging a bowl of grits across the restaurant. Everything else was excellent. Wife's fish was superb, great fresh oysters with a phenomenal champagne and sherry sauce and don't miss the Biscuit Service. Protip: Request more butter and cane syrup for biscuits. ..................... We will return and do recommend to others.

The red snapper, oh my god. There’s a difference between good food and great food, and Humming Bird Way certainly falls into the latter of the two categories. The rotating menu keeps both frequent fliers satisfied and new customers wanting more. This reviewer hit the nail on the head - if you’re looking for southern/modern American cuisine with a special twist - look no further. Keep up the excellent cooking Highly recommend any and all seafood. Parking: It's a neighborhood

Small, quaint eatery. The service was great, but the food was just terrible. We had a large party (about 20 people), and not a single person liked the food. It was chaotic. They held food until everyone was ready to be served, so the food was warm/room temperature when served. Just a bad experience. Again, the server did a great job handling that many people. They knew we were coming, so this was not unexpected. We also had a preselected menu. No excuse. Very small portions for the cost. Parking: Had to park inn the street.

To begin, I opted for the oysters, and they certainly lived up to expectations. The variety of wine, beer, and cocktails available was impressive. The oysters were truly delightful, offering a diverse selection, and the mignonette sauce complemented them well. While the marinated crab claws were decent, they could have benefited from some seasoning or a hint of salt. Among our group, the biscuit service, the fried flounder with curry sauce, the duck, and the grits were popular choices, and everyone seemed happy with their selections. Our server, Kat, provided exceptional service with her warm and attentive demeanor. However, there are a couple of aspects I would suggest improving. The noise level in the restaurant was uncomfortably high, making conversation difficult at our small table. Perhaps incorporating rugs or softer surfaces could help mitigate this issue. Additionally, while I appreciate the emphasis on fresh ingredients, I found the menu to be somewhat limited. The absence of the rabbit dish listed online was disappointing, and not everyone enjoys bleu cheese, which was included in the sole steak option. In my opinion, a bit more variety would enhance the dining experience. Lastly, the creme brulee was a letdown. Its texture was barely set, and the flavor was bland. Considering how straightforward creme brulee is to prepare, this was surprising. I doubt I'll be ordering it again here. Overall it was a nice experience and I would return for the fresh oysters and enticing cocktail selection.

Green tomatoes hard and not cooked inside. Wait staff arrogant and snippy. Very overpriced. Slim wine pour by wait staff

We just happen to find this restaurant by googling local restaurants near me. And we are glad we did. We went about 3:00 P.M. the restaurant was not busy. The atmosphere was great. The decor was pleasing to the eye. Along with the music. The menu had a nice variety to choose from.The server was very attentive. The marinated crab claws were delicious. I would highly recommend this restaurant, it's off the beaten path, well worth it. I will definitely be going back. Also the menu changes everyday, the chef made the effort to come by our table to make sure we enjoyed everything.
