Best Neighbourhood Gem Restaurants in Hoover

Well-prepared and thoughtful dishes for a range of tastes at a price point comparable with their quality. Would definitely go back, no question. Has the ambiance of a special occasion without emptying the wallet. We had two appetizers (one at market price), three entrees, two glasses of wine, one glass of port, and a soda for $245 before tip. That’s about $80/person and we didn’t finish our entrees after the appetizers—portions are very decent. Cut out the alcohol and the market price appetizer and you’re looking at probably $50-60/person, which honestly I’ve spent on a DoorDash for far less thoughtfully-prepared food.

After a wait for our reservation, food and service was excellent. Giana did a wonderful job.

One of my fav restaurants! The aha tuna special was marvelous! Hope to get it again one day! Just wow!

Perry’s Steakhouse is truly a standout when it comes to fine dining experiences, and their signature pork chop is nothing short of spectacular. From the moment you step inside, the ambiance sets the tone for an upscale yet welcoming meal. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall dining experience. Now, about the pork chop—it’s a masterpiece. Perfectly seasoned and caramelized, the massive cut is served in three sections, each one more delicious than the last. The slow-roasting process gives it an incredible tenderness, and the buttery, smoky glaze adds a depth of flavor that makes every bite unforgettable. Whether you’re savoring the juicy chop or the savory ribs portion, it’s a symphony of flavor and texture. Pair it with one of their expertly crafted sides—like the whipped potatoes or creamed spinach—and you’re in for a culinary treat. Perry’s also offers a well-curated wine list that complements the richness of the pork chop beautifully. For a special occasion or simply a night out to treat yourself, Perry’s Steakhouse delivers on all fronts. It’s a dining experience that will linger in your memory long after the last bite. Highly recommend!

Bellinis never disappoints. Food and services is always top notch. We are vegatarians and they have some nice choices for us. The ambiance is very nice and the service is first class. Why go into Jefferson County when you have this jewel in your backyard. Great restaurant. Love the grilled Caesar salad. Could eat that every day! The veggie burgers which are wood gilled are great!
