Hoover's Cooking serves up comfort food with a friendly and attentive staff. The menu boasts down-home favorites, including the popular chicken and dumplings and fried chicken. The fried chicken salad sandwich is a standout, perfectly made and highly recommended. While prices are reasonable, the atmosphere could use some improvement, including cleaning and replacing ceiling tiles. Despite some minor issues, the food is generally a hit, and Hoover's is a great spot to bring out-of-state guests for a taste of comfort food.
Customers praise the restaurant's history and atmosphere, describing it as a classic 90s/early 2000s Austin establishment. The take-out options, such as the catfish and 1/4 chickens, are particularly well-received, with the sides sometimes even better than the entrees. The restaurant also offers gluten-free options.
Hoover's is known for its Southern-style comfort food, with the chicken fried steak, chicken fried chicken, and honey mustard chicken sandwich receiving positive reviews. Customers recommend getting there early to avoid the wait, as the restaurant can get quite busy. While the service could be improved, the food is generally considered delicious, making Hoover's a reliable choice for those seeking a taste of down-home cooking.
