The Five Points Grill is a casual restaurant located in Pickwick Plaza at Five Points South. The restaurant opened as The Mill, a restaurant, brewery and bakery in 1990. The brewery closed a few years later, and then a dispute between the owners led to the name change.

In 2007 Cezayirli brought in former Cheesecake Factory manager Gary Nemet on as a partner to rejuvenate the restaurant. Nemet has overseen a $200,000 overhaul of the decor. New executive chef Doug Morgan is overhauling the menu with the goal of providing "four star food at a three-star price". Nemet has also arranged for a brewer to rekindle the former Southside Cellar brewing apparatus, producing a "house beer" which will be sold back to the restaurant through a distributor to avoid the legal restrictions of Alabama's brewpub law.
