Birmingham Restaurant Guide
Crystal Rivers
Crystal Rivers is a gourmet restaurant in Birmingham that seems to take its name seriously enough to ensure that diners are dazzled by long streams of sparkling crystals hanging from the ceiling. Without doubt, the decor is enviably sexy and glitzy, a contemporary take on modern dining, and that's not the whole story either because their food is deliciously Mediterranean and their service impeccable.

Filini Restaurant - Birmingham
Chic and very contemporary are some of the thoughts that cross your mind as you step on the elegant walnut floors of this trendy Italian restaurant on the first level of the Radisson Hotel.
