New upscale steak + seafood restaurant opening in downtown Birmingham, Nov. 8

Armour House, a highly anticipated neighborhood restaurant in downtown Birmingham, is slated to open on Friday, November 8.

Located at 2309 1st Avenue North, the restaurant is led by Executive Chef Jeffrey Compton and local entrepreneurs Rollins Montgomery and Chris Reebals.

The trio plan to introduce brasserie-inspired fare, including open-fire grilled steaks and fresh raw bar offerings.

“We’re thrilled to bring elevated brasserie dining and a new culinary experience to the Birmingham community.

Our team has poured their hearts into bringing this concept to life, and we look forward to welcoming both locals and visitors alike to experience all that Armour House has to offer.”
