Dave's is a great place, like an earlier reviewer mentioned, to just kick back with some friends, enjoy a brew (or "root brew") and some great pizza and chillax.  The atmosphere's very laid-back, sometimes on weekends there's an acoustic guitarist/musician playing, and the restaurant itself is set up so that on great weather nights the plastic windows can be rolled up and the place turned into an open-air area.  And it offers (completely) outdoor seating, and is nearby the newest SoHo restaurants/stores district, so safety's generally not a concern and the scenery is pretty quaint.

The pizza's pretty good - a bit on the moderately-priced side but very doable and very filling.  And a wide variety of traditional to healthy choices of toppings are available.  Everyone I've known that visits seems to enjoy themselves and their meals.  I have yet to visit and not have a great experience, and that includes going with a single other person to going with a group of 5+.  

Highly recommended - you won't be disappointed.

Went by the yelp and citysearch reviews and checked out the menu online - lots of good healthier option pizzas.  The hotel people immediately said without hesitation to order from Dave's Pizza.

I ended up ordering a medium whole-wheat pesto for delivery.  Super-friendly on the phone, came in less than 30 minutes with a smile, just under $20.  Medium was a little too much for one person, but it should make for great breakfast pizza.

Really good pizza, evenly cooked, great crust.  Recommendations are well-deserved!

Dave's is some pretty good pizza.  I like their outdoor patio area too.  They have great pizzas, an option of getting a whole wheat crust, and they serve pitchers of microbrewed beer.  Can't be beat in Birmingham.  A little on the pricey side though.

"For a good pizza call Dave"; I still have their refrigerator magnet. This is by far the best pizza in Birmingham. Were else can you get zucchini, goat cheese, and artichokes on a pizza in Alabama? They do a nice job on their crust; you can get it regular or whole wheat. They're located in the Mountain Brook area of the city which explains why they're still in business. The area is filled with good independent restaurants and it's a nice oasis from the franchise pizza hell that is most of Birmingham.

Dave's is good for what it is - a place to grab a pie with friends and toss back a few beers.  I like their sauce, although I prefer a thinner crust.  Dave's is located in Homewood, not Mountain Brook.

The gourmet pizza capitol of the south.  I had to take off a star because it's a little pricey for pizza, but they have the pesto in Alabama.  They have a huge patio to enjoy the wonderful Alabama weather and a nice beer selection.  Service is excellent and the parking lot in the back makes life easier.  The crowd varies from an indie seen to young families from homewood.
