Raining like hell in Tuscaloosa. Can anyone tell me the best place to grab a meal on the strip?

Go downtown to the oyster house. Or Avenue Pub.

For a nice (but not too nice) sit dinner: Thai Basil.
Otherwise, there are plenty of chains that you probably know well. Strip is very corporate, not much local flavor there anymore. To the extent such exists, you're going to have to go past the federal building into downtown.

Wound up at Billy’s Sports Bar. It was raining like hell and no parking spots on the strip. Smash burger worked out just fine.

Oh yeah, I've had Billy's but in Mountain Brook (Vestavia?) years ago. It's a nice little sports bar.

Really surprised no one's dropped a Glory Hole joke yet...

Hell yes. My wife wanted a World Cup inspired meal one night during the tournament, so I made Messi Fries.

Why isn't everyone calling that plane the Glory Hole, or Gloryhole Bound?

This happened when I was in school, and we were calling it glory pound

The Quick Grill and Buffalo Phils are the only spots on the Strip still open from when I was a student in early 2000s. Buffalo Phils food was average back then but I loved me some Quick Grill!
Anyone remember the following:
Pepitos
Hale Tavern
Lei Lei
Crimson Cafe (I think this is Glory Bound now)

How Phil's has lasted this long with how bad the food is remains a mystery.
DePalma's is the one place we go back to but the last time I went 2 yrs ago it had gone downhill.

Agreed buffalo Phil’s is bad, but if I remember correctly it was one of the only off campus places you could use dining dollars so maybe that’s always propped up their sales

That's how it was 20 years ago. And if you were nice some of the waitresses and bartenders would ring up your pitcher of beer as a side of fries. At the time they were also one of the only places still delivering at 2am.
