We will be in Hoover next week for the baseball tournament. We have reservations at Gianmarcos for Monday night but need some rec's for the rest of the week. Would like to some local joints. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Thanks

BBQ:
Saws Juke Joint
Martin’s

Downtown:
The Essential
East West
El Barrio (one of my favorites)
Roots and Revelry

Fancy:
La Fresca
Helen
Ovenbird
Automatic

Can’t go wrong with any of those. As for Hoover specifically? Not totally sure. There’s an Indian place on 150 near The Met that is supposedly incredible. Haven’t tried it though.

Blue Pacific is in Hoover, and it’s the best Thai in town. I’d venture down to Saigon Noodle House for my favorite Vietnamese restaurant. These are more “neighborhood” kind of places though. Shorts and a t shirt kind of thing.

Big bad breakfast in homewood is a good spot.
Oteys is fun at night to listen to some music and drink some beers.
All of the spots mentioned above are solid. I didn't love Oven Bird but Helen is great.
Chez Fon Fon is another good spot.

Great choice. One of my favorite spots. They usually have some great specials that the wife always gets, but some of the standard items that are some of our favorites:

Fiocchi appetizer:


Lasagna


Ribeye w/ mac n cheese and bacon brussels.


Spaghetti in Sunday Sauce
