The Best Thai Restaurants In Atlanta - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"Several skyscrapers have filled in around this Spring and 17th Street corner since 2003. But Nan—with its giant golden tamarind pod statue—remains king of the block. Towering ceilings and a room full of Southeast Asian art make a meal here feel grand. And business crowds, friend gatherings, and more-than-occasional celebrity sightings continue to cement this Midtown spot as the place to be. But the main reason for Nan's longevity is their wide range of consistently flavorful Thai dishes. Standards like the tasty pad thai get an upgrade with two fried lobster tails. And fresh seafood selections like the juicy pan-seared scallops just taste better doused in their rich red curry." - jacinta howard, juli horsford, nina reeder
