Purple Onion Deli Grill - Homewood

Surprise. I don't like this kind of food, but had to go there so I tried the Terraki wings and Pommes and they were fantastic!!!

Where have you been all my life?. The Purple Onion was a pleasant surprise for me. I live near this location and pass it every time I go to the Publix, but had never been in. It took an experienced friend, a Birmingham native, to introduce me to what I thought Al’s would be. Of course, there is no comparison. I believe I ordered the Falafel Pronto with fries, which was delightful. But this is a 24 hr. greasy spoon kind of place with a huge menu that all looks good and stomach cramp inducing, in the best way possible. I have only dipped my toe into the ocean that is The Purple Onion. So glad to know it’s there when I need it. By far the best, local fast food I’ve had.

Love this place. I swear Purple Onion is one of the best restaurants in Birmingham. I've been going to Purple Onion since 1997. The food is good every single time I go. The Homewood location is the best location. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. My favorite is anything with the grilled chicken. It is seasoned so well. The tabouleh is delicious. Even the fries taste good. Love the roll ups. Fast good service and the best food ever.

Gyros!. Purple Onion is my go to spot when I get a craving for a gyro. Their homemade gyro sauce is awesome and the service is always quick and courteous. Oh, and they're open 24/7, which you don't find too often in Birmingham unless you count Waffle House. I eat here on a regular basis.

Good customer service. Great food. No need to add salt or pepper. The food is seasoned beautifully and the portions are generous. Just typing about it makes me wanna put in an order for the grouper platter with tabouli.
