Blue Pacific at Hoover Food Mart

Delicious Thai food. I used to eat here in college (~10 years ago) when it still was a gas station. Recently was back in bham and had to go again. SO GOOD STILL!!! I love their pad Thai, curries, basil fried rice, etc etc. highly recommend

Probably my favorite local nondescript restaurant in the Birmingham area. With the severe lack of variety in Asian food, this is a gem. Cant really go wrong with whatever you order, everything tastes great. Parking can be tough during peak hours but its manageable. Calling in can be tough too, but if you cant get in, just go there, order and wait.

I finally went. Got there just before they opened. It was sketch, not gonna lie. I wasnt sure it was a real restaurant from the outside. Read the reviews again and decided to stay. Based on recommendations from another customer, I ordered the fried rice, spicy basil with chicken and the pad Thai with chicken. Also got spring rolls. Im a total food snob so Im hard to impress. Ive yet to find an Asian restaurant here that made me say, wow! Im impressed! Red Pearl used to be pretty good to me but I dont know. I barely go anymore because its just not all that. Well, I was really happy with the food here! It didnt feel greasy at all. Ingredients were fresh. Flavors were excellent. Spring rolls were spot on. I got there early which Im sure was a good thing. I think I waited in the car maybe 15 min to get my order? It wasnt terribly long. Ill definitely go back. It lived up to the reviews.

My recent visit to Blue Pacific introduced me to their array of Thai dishes, presenting a journey of flavors that was both enjoyable and memorable. Nestled in a cozy spot, Blue Pacific offers an inviting ambiance that pairs well with their culinary offerings, making it a pleasant dining destination for anyone looking to explore Thai cuisine. The food, I must say, was good. Each dish served was a testament to the authenticity and effort put into preserving the essence of Thai flavors. While it may not claim the title of the best Thai food I've ever had, it certainly holds its ground with a tasteful, well-rounded menu. The dishes were flavorful, with a good balance of spices and textures that are quintessential to Thai cooking. One of the highlights of my dining experience was not just the food itself, but the value it offered. Considering the quality and portions of the meals served, the prices are more than fair, making Blue Pacific a strong contender for anyone looking for good Thai food without breaking the bank. This aspect alone ensures that I will be coming back for more.
