The restaurant had a sports bar atmosphere, but the service was completely at odds with that vibe. The server didn’t mean to be unkind; it’s just the way many Chinese individuals interact with guests. However, the tone was harsh and unfriendly, which put me off from the start. As for the food I ordered, I wish I could rate it zero stars. The ramen was far from edible; it was excessively salty, and the fish cakes were incredibly dry, as if they had been left out for days.

I ordered the Thai basil fried rice. I was really disappointed. It tasted bland i would a say a normal fried rice.

Decent tasting Asian food served quickly and generously. Service was great and friendly on this slow day we visited. It is a nice looking modern decor inside but the amount of screens and constantly changing screens were not appealing to us

Sho Yu of Andover is cater more to the American tastes, unlike its other 2 Sho Yu. There are. This is a Chinese Japanese and Thai restaurant. It is a very good sport bar with TV monitor on three side of the restaurant. It has $1 oysters time. I ordered the chicken wing, boneless rib, teriyaki beef with garlic noodles. They were very good. I also ordered the Thai drunken noodles. That was only OK. It did not have enough wok breath. Sho Yu also has Karaoke and live band on the weekend after 9:00 pm

Delicious food, friendly attentive staff and wide selection of menu items. Visiting from Alaska and we were told this was the best. They weren’t wrong.
We visited Sho You a few times and it is OK. We sat at the bar each time and the bar staff ate at the bar and were inattentive each visit. Mai Thai's are about triple the price you should pay for well drinks and and pints of Sam Adams are more expensive at Sho You than they are in Boston, very pricey for what it is. Sushi and Sashimi is good, rolls are OK. They have a few mid week specials that are a good value. The re-design of the interior is nice.

Really great sushi and great cocktails! I loved their variety as well, and the fact the sushi menu came with pictures. We took Queens special, Andover maki, and Christmas maki, and loved them in that order. Loved my blue Hawaiian too. Overall, this place has a good vibe. The only thing I'd warn others about is: if you don't like noisy environments, please don't visit this place after 9.30pm on weekends, unless you wanna torture yourself with people singing horribly and at the top of their voices at the karaoke. I mean karaokes are fun, but not when all the tables in the restaurant have a microphone. It would have been better if the microphone was passed on to only the table requesting that particular song (I gotta admit, the whole restaurant singing out of tune felt like noise pollution after a certain while). But no complaints with the food - 1 sushi dish and 1 drink would be around $30-$35ish per person.

Wow! What a great place. Food was very good, but it’s the service that stands out. Gina and Kris are awesome. So attentive and welcoming. The manager Scott, greeted us as we walked in and checked in the customers. We will definitely be back!
