What a pleasant experience!…read more I ate here one afternoon as part of a self-care day. Upon entering, I immediately felt as if I were taking part in a celebration as I took in all of the vivid colors and decorations that adorned the space. I was warmly greeted, and taken to a table that had been freshly wiped clean. My server was very sweet and recommended several appetizers to start my dining experience. She complimented my handbag and we shared small talk over the uniqueness of it. She also brought out chilled tap water that I requested and poured it into a small glass. I decided to try the lavender lemonade and I'm happy I did. It was glass of my favorite childhood drink served in a restaurant. The lemonade was sweet as if my mama made it and the lavender added just the right pizazz to the drink. Plus it was a pretty drink! I loved the fresh flowers that added an elegant touch. Now for the main course. I opted for the drunken uncle noodles with beef lunch special that includes a complimentary crispy roll. The roll could've been a tad bit warmer, but not a deal breaker. It was still tasty with just the right amount of crunch. The star was the drunken uncle noodles. They were absolutely delicious! The spices, the flavors, the tenderness of the noodles and beef were all superb! I've been thinking of this dish since I ate it and I can't wait to order it again and again! Yum Yai...from the welcoming ambience, to the friendly service, to the exquisite meal...you have earned this 5 star review. Keep shining bright!

We had checked in at our hotel a bit later than planned and hence were hungry. My wife found this…read moreplace listed as the closest Thai place, so we drove there. It is located in a large plaza that spas both sides of the road. The opposite side looked more like a small shopping mall with higher end restaurants, but we didn't explore it. The side where this restaurant is located is anchored by a Publix. There was plenty of parking in the shared lot. I don't think that this place was what either of us expected, which was a restaurant where you ordered from your table. Instead, this place had a more 'hole in the wall' vibe, but in a generally good way. They had about 6 tables total in a fairly small space. You ordered at the counter and they brought the food out later. They were almost constantly fielding phone-in orders for to-go food. They had limited drinks available (including water) but no alcohol. The staff was friendly. The food came out before long, and we both agreed it was very good. My curry was quite flavorful. My wife liked her vegetable dish as well. So, just know what to expect. If you want to impress someone on a first date, this may not be the venue for you. If you are just here for the food, then this is a great choice. If I lived in the area and wanted Thai take-out, this would absolutely be my first pick.

I've probably been here over 50 times…read more Check Facebook for hours as they are truly a family business and will close for over a week at a time for family matters. And I love that about them! Three picnic tables outside is all of the seating. Parking lot is small but there is parking across the street if needed. I usually order and then wait in my car for my food. Friday special is my favorite but if you are one of the lucky ones that dines there on a day when they have yellow noodle bowl, you are blessed. It is very rare. It says Hoover Food Mart on the sign, a homage to their humble beginnings in this building back when it was an operating gas station. Unique, special, delicious. An all around gem in the heart of Hoover.

They got some real parking lot magic going on. Folks don't know how to park. It's date night, Bae and I want everything. This our first time. We got spring rolls of course, dumplings and he got the coveted coconut soup with tofu. He says yum. I hate Coconut soup. Spring rolls limited, hardly nothing, but them DUMPLINGS! Man yeah! Entrees were combination fried rice and Pad Pak. Pretty good. Real fresh veggies with chicken and an extra fried egg, just love the ingredients. It's a nice fresh herb taste with lots of flavor with little seasoning. Y'all already know, if it's for the dumplings alone, She'll be back.

2nd time dining at yummefy, although it's been many years since! Here's everything we ordered:…read more Yummefy Curry- a slightly sweet curry in a tomatoey sauce. Medium heat was perfect for me. Gorkhali Chicken- Chicken and vegetables grilled to perfection! Slightly sautéed in a Nepali sauce and served with rice. Aloo Naan- I actually had no intention to order this. We ordered the aloo paratha, but after we ordered we were asked if we'd be okay with aloo naan instead. I would've ordered garlic naan instead, as the potato taste overpowered the naan. It was a very fluffy and fresh batch of naan, although not my personal favorite. Our server was SO sweet and made sure that we got to choose our spice levels for each dish. The menu has many South Asian dishes to choose from!

This place claims to have a variety of Asian foods, such as Thai, Indian, Nepali, and Chinese…read more Quite honestly, it was an absolute disappointment. The Nepali Pork Momo was disgusting. I hated it and didn't finish it. The meat tasted processed and the flavors were overwhelming. Nothing about tasted authentic or fresh. My chicken wasn't bad and the flavors from the grill were great, but unfortunately it was very dry and even though it was dark meat which cooks pretty fast, I assumed that this chicken was either pre-cooked earlier in the morning or the night before in order to be ready so quickly and cooked all the way through. I guess I shouldn't expect too much in an area such as this for Asian food since this is not a predominantly Asian area, but I was still hopeful. The people who work there were extremely nice and they worked very hard.

I love the sauce that comes with it! I have also had a great yuzu margarita there, which I would recommend if you want a cocktail! My most recent order was the Super Crunch Roll. I got this to go, and I picked it based off of previous Yelp reviews. It was delicious but didn't necessarily blow me away, especially for it to be ~$17. It left me feeling hungry, whereas I usually feel quite full from a sushi roll. They have a lovely outdoor patio for whenever the weather is nice. They do allow you to bring your dog to sit with you! Service can be hit or miss at times, but overall, we have had great experiences. They have a HH 4-6 Thursday-Sunday, which is nice if you can make it then. It includes 1/2 price appetizers, $5 cocktails (marg, mojito, cucumber collins, and mule), beer, wine, and sake. I attached the menu for this. I believe the HH and lunch special pricing is only offered for dine-in.
