Galatoire's Hotel & Restaurant was a fine restaurant and hotel located at 108-110 21st Street North in downtown Birmingham between about 1889 and 1892. It was owned and operated by French-born chef Jean Galatoire, who went on to found the long-lived Galatoire's Restaurant in New Orleans, Louisiana.

One of Galatoire's regular customers was industrialist J. H. Woodward. On his 46th birthday, Woodward dined at Galatoire's with Oscar Underwood to discuss iron markets.

Galatoire closed the business on May 5, 1892, with unpaid debts of about $4,000.
