Hitting the road for the Alabama game? Celebrate and unwind afterwards by treating yourself to some out-of-town fine dining at Opus this weekend. Located in downtown Northport, in the historic district, this hip hangout manages to combine elegance and modernity—and that’s just the setting. The food is fusion fare with exciting, inventive twists like green tea–lacquered quail lollipops and cracked pepper duck with blueberry demi-glace. If you’re up for something a little fancier than pizzas or burgers to toast the Tigers, Opus is likely to float your boat. 430 Main Ave., Northport, AL (205) 722-2191
