Fabulous brunch spot! Service was great, food was exceptional, local beer on tap. Miranda heard I was lactose intolerant and helped me make excellent choices.

Went here for my boyfriends and I’s dating anniversary. The place is classy and has a very intimate atmosphere. All of the staff were polite and even wished us a happy anniversary on our way out. I had the Elderberry martini as my drink which was phenomenal. We started with fried green tomatoes and for my meal I got the Salmon. If you like fried green tomatoes, you HAVE to get these. These were amazing!!

We ate lunch here. The food was good, but the service was slow and it was a little noisy. I had the fried green tomato BLT and my husband had the brisket sandwich. The BLT came with an interesting mushroom aioli sauce. They both came with more fries that we could possibly eat. We came here today for lunch. My friend had the burger which she said was delicious. I had the Korean fried chicken sandwich that came with a spicy Korean sauce and a white sauce. The sauces were amazing, and although the chicken was tasty, it was tough. I would have probably sent it back, but our server didn’t appear again until we were ready to pay.

1892 hosted a beautiful luncheon for my mother. We used one of the special event rooms and everything was just perfect. The staff were so kind and patient wth our large party and we never felt rushed. Some guests moved from table to table and the waitress actually found each guest to deliver their meal. The food was delicious too.

The food was very good! We had the stuffed trout and salmon and they were both phenomenal. Loved the fried green tomatoes.The waiter was amazing, atmosphere is great. I can't believe I've lived here as long as I have and have never been here! We will definitely go back

Had a reservation for four on a Saturday night at 1900. The place was super busy but service was still terrific. The martini selection has something for everyone as the did wine list. The fried green tomatoes as an appetizer were fantastic....served with goat cheese and a jelly (can't remember what fruit). Seriously, if you like fried green tomatoes, as any southerner should, do not miss these. The pic below is of the short rib....it was as tasty as it looks. I had the scallop special, and the creamy grits were downright luxurious. It had been a while since visiting 1892....it's now on the rotation list again after a great experience.

A truly hidden gem in the Huntsville area. We visit for special occasions and have always been impressed with the experience. The staff are super friendly, attentive, and are open to sharing their recommendations for what to order. The food is amazingly tasty. Seriously, it’s scrumptious. You will leave stuffed and satisfied. Be sure to make reservations by calling the restaurant or booking online in advance, it’s a popular place after all. The food is yummy!

Excellent service with a cozy atmosphere. The beef tenderloin was tender enough to cut with a fork, juicy perfectly cooked, and burst with flavor. I was skeptical of the panko fried green maters (generally, I don't like panko batter), but this chef pulled it off and changed my mind. The onion jam was an amazing addition to the maters and the cheese board. Plenty of draft beer, wine options, and a full bar is available.
