There are plenty of places to eat in the Hoover area but Shono's has proven through the years to provide friendly service and amazing food! Unlike some of the Japanese restaurants, Shono's focuses on good quality food without all of the theatrics. Shono's is a180 from it's over priced mediocre food tasting competition! The menu is smaller but not small on flavor. The Eddie's Special is a must try along with the fish (fresh cod). I love the rice but enjoy the tasty vegetables even more so I order extra veggies and no rice. My daughter loves the chicken bowl - nice generous portion for around $5. Chef Eddie cooks all of the food to order in his open kitchen and it's ready in no time. Food is just a tasty if you want to order to go. You won't ever walk out of there hungry! Lots of places come and go in the Hobby Lobby shopping center but Eddie and Flora have loyal following of customers that have supported their small business through the years and for good reason. Try this hidden gem in Hoover off Hwy 31.

This location has always seemed to struggle for business but I think Kome is a keeper. Delicious sushi in Hoover with a great variety of noodle bowls, Bento boxes and Asian dishes. They also have an Express menu with quick items made to order. My favorite noodle bowl is the spicy beef ramen. It's just the perfect amount of spice ordered "on the medium side". Large portion and filling for the $13.99 price.

I frequently eat Japanese steak house so I have several to compare this one too as I am traveling through the area. This one certainly did not disappoint! The waiter and chef were excellent! Really enjoyed how he prepared our food. The steak was tender, the scallops were juicy and shrimp was perfect! Great veggies, rice, noodles, salad. Only downfall I would say is I wished I had an Asian soup spoon... that minor.Otherwise I was very pleased. The bar tender did well with mixed drinks and they have a decent priced menu in comparison with most steakhouses. They are not cheap but we were able to enjoy the meal and share it and was great! Would certainly recommend! I read through the reviews and was skeptical with lowered expectations but they exceeded them!

5. Osaka Japanese Cuisine & Sushi Bar
Reviewed By BlueDiver3231
We go to Osaka frequently because it is close to both home and work. The sushi is always good and the Bento boxes are also very good. There is a jalapeno/crab appetizer that is not on the menu. The jalapeno peppers are mild, just enough heat for flavor! Everyone we have encouraged to try this appetizer has loved it as much as we do! This is a good place to have lunch, they have a good lunch menu with reasonable prices.
