Shonos - Hoover

Fantastic Japanese cuisine that feels homemade, filling and tasty. A mother and pop shop with a simple menu. The miserable soup, dumplings and chicken teeth were the best in Hoover.

Chicken entrée was delicious. We also loved the dumplings and the miso soup! A definitive stop for light, tasty and affordable Japanese cuisine.

Fast service and cheap, delicious food. There was nothing we didn't like. It is a good place if you do not want to cook at home and want a casual meal without a chic restaurant decor.

Definitely not a fine food, but a good place for fast, inexpensive Japanese cuisine. We were disappointed to find that they don't offer sushi, and all the meals we ordered had a bit too much sauce. But the taste was pretty good, and the service was okay. If we lived closer, we could eat there again, but it's a bit of a ride for us, and Hoover has several Japanese restaurants that offer a better experience.

Steak bowl was glorious! Nice quick lunch, very filling and great flavor for such a simple dish. Also the sweet tea is crazy good!
