Loved the lively atmosphere and drinks at Shu Shop Birmingham! Definitely a great place to hang out for cocktails, though the food didn’t quite live up to the vibe.

I go here every time I'm in Birmingham. The cocktails and the ramen are both superb. I added the burnt ends to my ramen when I was hear last and really enjoyed that.

Shu Shop delivers a moody, hip izakaya experience in Birmingham. Selection of ramens, small plates and cocktails. Place has wide selection of alcohol and service was great and quick. I took the edamame and tuna tataki and both were great and delicious. Food portions was on the smaller side and prices on the higher end but still a fun spot for a night out. Love the decor. Definitely a great place to take a date. I recommend 👌

This is absolutely one of my favorite places to go to in Birmingham. I always recommend them to any of my friends coming from out of town. Been going here for years and have only had great experiences.
Food, service, atmosphere are all world class and at a great value. All the small plates and ramen are killer but the lobster ramen has to be my favorite.
I ordered the ramen. It was just okay. But it’s a nice atmosphere and friendly staff. They have much better options if you eat meat but for vegetarian & vegan dishes, it is extremely limited.

One of my favorite restaurants in downtown Birmingham. The ambiance is great, not noisy at all and with a very cool vibe. Service is top-notch and the food is amazing. The ramen is cooked to perfection with layers of flavor.
Came in for a late dinner. Ordered multiple things from the menu. Ordered the pups, they were horrible. Strange bitter taste, we both tried to eat them but they were definitely offensive to our palate. I told the waitress multiple times that we did not like them and couldn’t eat them. She never had a response. I spoke with the host about the taste. He then said he would have the manager to come by. The manager never came to the table! He sent a message by the server that it wouldn’t be removed from the check and he was sorry that it wasn’t good. Horrible customer service!!!! Never mind all the other items that we purchased! NEVER AGAIN!!!! Cook good food and maybe this won’t be an issue!

I have ate at this restaurant about 5 times now and NEVER had an issue with food and service. I do get this one particular waitress that is not really mean nor friendly and it’s off putting. Imagine trying to eat your food and you kind of have someone watching and hovering over you? I’ve had her twice and each time I felt weird. Particularly today, I ordered the peach ice cream and matcha cookies and I did not like it because the cookies were hard, had no flavor and the icecream had a very strong alcoholic flavor that left a BAD TASTE in my mouth, it just doesn’t work well. . I was not a fan of this because it was not mentioned in the description. I asked for it to be removed because I did not not eat it and I was told “ item can’t be removed because you do not like it” and I found it to be a very weird policy especially if you see the whole item is untouched and customer asked for check to pay for the rest of the items BUT that one. I will continue to come here but I am not a fan of some of the waitress/waiter’s attitude. IAN is a great waiter!! He was so kind to me and my friends whenever we got assigned to him!
The crab claws and spicy miso ramen TASTE SO GREAT THOUGH! 🩷

Great restaurant with a limited but wholesome menu of ramen dishes along with small plates and snacks. Located right across from the beautiful Alabama theatre, the interior is a dark and intimate setup with real oil lamps (don't touch!) and friendly, helpful hostess and table service. My only minor complaints would be the limited menu and just how incredibly dark 🕶️ it is inside the restaurant. Other than that, it's a great experience. ❤️
Very good. Great service. Friendly and amazing food.
