I know why this is good food. First visit here was four years ago and had one of the best shrimp dishes I have ever eaten, and the wife a fabulous cut of beef steak that was delicious. This trip was no different, the salmon dish was excellent, top notch, I know because I grill salmon twice a week and have developed a good flavor, and this is excellent. The steak tips asparagus and taters were excellent. The reason this place is great is the menu. They do not offer a choice of 25 entrees, they have a few and do them well with fresh ingredients and seasoning. One of my favorite places. I will be back and recommed highly.

Nice Retro RailYard theme place . If you are in Decatur , Al ; must eat here . Little menu hut good menu . Food is really good , nice presentation . I like how they have pictures of old locomotives on the brick walls and the old signs of breweries . The lighting inside is very nice . They have a nice bar area with variety of craft beer if you are into that . We ordered steak bites and tacos . Desert menu is good too . The food was great . The staff is very nice and friendly . Very cozy and peaceful place to enjoy you food .

The RailYard is a one of a kind hole in the wall, Mom “n” Pop kinda places that has 5 Star food. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the food is. I love love love the atmosphere. The only negative is that it was cold inside (glad i had my jacket) and the couple beside me said it is always cold. Maybe it’s by design since it’s a small place and the food is very good ????. Got to get people to leave somehow. I had The Wharf and it was fantastic! I will definitely go again when in the area.

I wish they had a location in Huntsville. I had the Salisbury steak, mashed potatoes, and fried okra. It was excellent. One of the best meals I’ve had recently. Honestly, the food experiences I’ve had in Decatur tend to be better than Huntsville. I’ll be making the drive to come back and try more menu items.

My wife and I drove 18 miles to eat at this restaurant. Due diligence was done by my wife to verify we would arrive during their posted hours of operation. We arrived 40 minutes prior to their closing time. We went in and were advised by the host that the kitchen was closed. He explained the kitchen closes 30 minutes before the posted restaurant closing time. We arrived 40 minutes before closing. He then said that the kitchen closed earlier than 30 minutes because business was slow. From looking at other reviews, this is not an isolated incident. Maybe it would be worth taking a chance to go eat at the restaurant for a local, but I will not make that mistake again. "Fool me once..."

The food is good, but the price is a bit high for the portion size. I had fried okra, and it was fresh...not at all slimy. The BBQ shrimp and grits were very tasty, could've been a bit more. Autumn, suggested I have a Blueberry crunch for dessert. Spot on! It was delicious! She did a fantastic job, even offered me a tea to take with me.

Feels like a hideaway with ground-level entrance in the back & also a door in the front on 2nd Ave. Good menu choices with local beers on tap.

Asked to talk with manager and she was dismissive about my concerns. Blamed it on price of meat. We paid for that increase in price but received a third of the portion. Now it makes sense why it was almost empty at noon. The price of meat is a poor excuse because I make boards at home and we have them at other places. Wow! How this place has changed from my original review. We left hungry and spent double the amount this time and won’t be back. Large and shareable board last time with lots of cheese and different types of crackers. This time the board was next to nothing and the tacos were tiny. So disappointed and we loved this restaurant.
From a year ago: Absolutely amazing meal and service! We had the charcuterie board to start and it was so delicious. For our meals, we had The Philly and The Southerner. The meat was tender and cooked perfectly. Huge portions! Our server, Sergio, was attentive without being overbearing and gave great recommendations. We wish we lived closer so we could dine here more often!
