About The Red Clay Table

Nestled in the heart of revitalized downtown Sheffield, The Red Clay Table at 307 N Montgomery Ave, Sheffield, AL 35660 is a restaurant that feels both refined and welcoming. Known for serving high-end Southern food with a French twist, this spot has quickly become a favorite for anyone who enjoys a menu that blends tradition with creativity.

Walking into The Red Clay Table, you’ll notice details that make the dining experience unique. The baskets on each table, handwoven from dried kudzu vines, immediately set a local and personal tone. Even the soaps in the restrooms are crafted by a woman who runs a lavender farm just across the Tennessee state line. It’s these thoughtful touches that remind guests they’re not in just any restaurant, but one that values authenticity and connection to its community.

The name “Red Clay” itself pays tribute to the region, and that same philosophy extends to the ingredients on every plate. Vegetables come fresh from Bluewater Creek Farms and Jack-O-Lantern Farms, while the beef is sourced directly from cows raised at FAME Ranch. This dedication to local sourcing ensures dishes are not only delicious but also deeply tied to the land and farmers nearby. Diners can taste the difference in every bite.

The restaurant’s menu is an ever-evolving showcase of Southern comfort elevated with French techniques. Think hearty flavors reimagined with delicate, elegant presentations. Whether you’re there for a date night, a special celebration, or just a casual evening out in downtown Sheffield, the combination of atmosphere and cuisine makes it an experience worth talking about.

Reviews often highlight not only the food but also the sense of place The Red Clay Table creates. It’s a gathering spot where Southern hospitality meets sophisticated dining, and where every detail—from farm-fresh vegetables to handwoven table accents—tells a story about the community.

What a gem! High vintage ceilings with antique tin, amazing staff and such fresh food. I had the blackened catfish, Kevin the lasagna. As our waitress, Tiffany said, “you never make a bad decision and never leave wanting”! And was she ever right!!!

I took my husband out for his birthday and we chose The Red Clay Table although we had never been there before we were certainly Not disappointed! The food was great and Kat our server was outstanding! We will definitely come back again! The creme brûlée was amazing! Well my husband and I have made our 2nd visit to The Red Clay Table and the food, atmosphere, and service were just as exceptional as our 1st trip. This time I had the grilled chicken and my husband had a burger. So good!!!

Had lunch today at "The Red Clay Table" and it was my first time there, and wow what a lunch!! I've heard nothing but good things from this place, and it definitely didn't disappoint! I started out with the fried green beans and okra appetizer, it came with a dipping sauce and I forgot to ask what it was but my best guess was it was a petal sauce (I dont normally like petal sauce but this went great with the fried green beans) the fried green beans were amazing and the okra was very good! Now let me get to this Philly Steak sandwich!! It was probably the most flavorful sandwiches I've eaten at a restaurant, it was actual grilled steak cut up on the sandwich and you have to add the spicy mayo to set it off, it was fantastic!! 5 stars on the sandwich can't wait to get that sandwich again!!

1st time eating here. The lady said, "You can't make a mistake at ordering anything on the menu." She was right! Ordered the beef tips & rice with a side salad and mac n cheese. I got the appetizer smoked salmon dip with tortilla chips. Y'all, if you like Salmon, try this it's so good. Did someone say dessert? Umm, yes, please. I got the cream brulee. Which was gone before I could get a picture. This is a much place to eat. I'll be back.

Food is great, wait time was not long at all and service was fast. I had a sandwich, the Havana with Mac and cheese. The portion was just right for lunch, but I had to try my favorite dessert bread pudding. It was really good. Top was crisp and the inside was moist and tight. Caramel sauce on the side made it. Spot on. Iwill be back to try the meatloaf and the nachos. Love finding new places that cook real well.

Stopped in for lunch. I had the beef tips over rice with a side of Mac 'n' cheese, my lady had a club sandwich with onion rings. Everything was delicious! The beef tips were perfectly seasoned and the Mac 'n' cheese was so creamy. My lady loved the club sandwich and the onion rings were fried perfectly (not overcooked, light and crispy). The server was friendly and attentive. We would highly recommend this restaurant to everyone and will definitely be coming back!
