26 Thai Kitchen & Bar - Review - Midtown - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"Sitting in what looks like a converted house, 26 Thai in Midtown is the original location of this well-loved, local Thai franchise. And it's a popular hotspot for good reason. Inside, there’s a chill yet stylish vibe—so you can have a low-key date night lounging in plush green velvet chairs or a solo dinner at the always-popping bar. The huge patio is great for gathering with friends, whether you’re hitting up Happy Hour (2-6pm, with crispy spring rolls for $8) or grabbing a casual, filling lunch with coworkers. The menu is stacked with delicious options, but one of the best orders is the basil chicken, with minced chicken, basil, chili, and a fried egg on top. Or go for the tasty, spicy tom yum, loaded with spicy Thai chili, mushrooms, and kaffir lime leaf. Food Rundown photo credit: Jacinta Howard Tom Yum Soup The tom yum makes a great rainy day soup. It’s packed with bold, tangy flavors from the lemongrass and kaffir lime leaf, with a spicy kick from the Thai chili. The mushrooms add an earthy depth, balancing the zest and heat that’s like a nice kick in the face, especially if you’re stuffy. video credit: Jacinta Howard Basil Chicken One of the best things on the menu, the basil chicken is full of fresh, herbal flavors with a noticeable heat from the Thai chili. The minced chicken is savory, and the fried egg on top adds a rich finish. video credit: Jacinta Howard Signature Wings You get five wings that are double-fried for extra crispiness while keeping the inside juicy. They’re tossed in Thai chili and sesame seasoning, giving them a delicious mix of heat and nuttiness. Singha Thai Lager If you like beer, get this. The lager is crisp and light and pairs well with crunchy spring rolls or crispy signature wings. Panang Curry Another winner on the menu, this curry features tender green beans and fragrant kaffir lime leaf in a rich, creamy sauce. It’s served with jasmine rice, which soaks up the roasted chili's heat, balancing out the smooth coconut flavors." - Jacinta Howard

The design of the place is very nice. I recommend dining inside for a better view, as the patio area is quite simple. I ordered the Thai dumplings as an appetizer, but the flavor was just okay. I was hoping to try the pineapple rice, but they didn’t have it, so I chose the pineapple boat instead. The taste was similar to Chinese pineapple chicken, so I found it a bit overpriced. What I do recommend is the Khao Soi, a yellow curry that is really good. Another great detail is that they offer a variety of sauces, which adds extra points.

I’ve been to the other 26 Thai location, but this one is my favorite one!! Jose made our experience absolutely exceptional. He was patient, attentive, friendly and positively exuberant. Even our family from out of town commented on how superb the service was. They’re already planning their next trip back here. Will absolutely come again 20/10!!

First Evan!!!! Honestly they were the best server their energy, their recommendations and explaining the menu was phenomenal and wasn’t lacking because we trusted him and full spread courtesy of Evan honey!. My only complaint is the fact that I wanted to order everything again but I was too full. The food and portion sizes were great! I came with a friend and we did the 26 Platter, Fried Rice, and Penang Curry and had the Juniper Heart cocktail and the Pure Blossom sake and for dessert Coconut Cake The flavors, the sauces 😍😍😍 everything was great. Will be seeing me again!

Our server was so friendly, the drinks and food were phenomenal, we will definitely be back. The tofu panang curry was some of the best curry I’ve ever had. My husband got the chicken massaman and loved it. Our appetizer & dessert both hit the spot. The atmosphere was neat, clean, but also open and relaxed with very professional and warm staff. It was a very enjoyable visit.

Cozy, friendly environment. Seating inside is tight and seemingly setup to minimize lingering. The staff was efficient, knowledgeable and covered for each other when it got busy — SUPER YAY!! Roti was outstanding— hot, succulent and flakey. Choose your sauce. Beef short ribs and Whole red snapper were both palate charms. The beef was not as spicy as we expected. The details placed in spices, portions and plating were obvious. We LOVED IT!!

Here visiting and the food was absolutely phenomenal. The flavour of their curry is literally perfect I’ve tried the short rib curry and the salmon and shrimp WOW 🤩. If you have the chance I would ask for Evan as your server if he’s in. He has such impeccable service—friendly, nice, and attentive to the service he provides. It might be a little pricey but for a nice night out I would definitely stop by here. Enjoy!

We ordered the lobster and shrimp fried rice along with the tamarind chicken. The food was absolutely delicious, the restaurant had a cozy atmosphere, and the service was incredible. We will definitely be back — thank you, Morah, for the wonderful service!

The drinks are top tier- not watery, very flavorful and worth the price. The Thai dumplings were tasty. Our server Evan was a delight! He was super helpful and friendly, it was almost like another friend in our group 😂

I visited with my family for a quiet Monday dinner 2 weeks ago. They may have used old food from the weekend or there was some kind of cross contamination. Both my elderly parents got severe food poisoning within a few hours. My mother had the tamarind chicken and my father had a surf & turf special. They were vommitting aggressively for 12 hours and had fevers. I would not recommend. I reached out via website and was completely ignored.

Im updating to 5 I love this place. I've been a few times and each and every time I'm greeted with a smile and welcoming attitude. I still am in love with the shrimp fried rice which is huge in proportions but I also got the signature wings which was fried perfectly. The chicken was crispy and had the spicy sauce lighted drizzled over it. I'm hungry just thinking about it. We came after lunch and I enjoyed dining with friends. It wasn't many people there when we arrived but it started to fill up quickly.

This place is 10/10 best Thai food in downtown area. The service is so friendly, it's a very small and cute dining space creating a very nice atmosphere. The food was amazing and came out very quickly. We will definitely be back when visiting :)

My husband and I decided to try 26 Thai after discovering a 30-minute wait at RReal Tacos around the corner. We were seated immediately, which was a nice surprise. The restaurant features a pleasant outdoor patio and a clean, upscale interior, complete with tidy bathrooms and a small bar. The service was quick, and the food was generally good. I wasn't a fan of my margarita, but my husband enjoyed his Old Fashioned. We started with the "Pick 4" appetizer platter: the basil rolls, Thai dumplings, and spring rolls were all hits. However, the satay chicken was quite dry, and the peanut sauce felt overly heavy and lacked balance. For our entrees, I ordered the Pad Thai with chicken and vegetables, which was very tasty. The "Tom Yum" soup was flavorful and innovative, but it was light on veggies, containing only a few mushroom slices. The broth was delicious, so I ordered a side of steamed veggies to add some substance to the dish. Overall, we were pleased with our experience. However, when comparing it to other nearby Thai restaurants, like Poor Calvin's, 26 Thai doesn't quite measure up. We enjoyed our meal and would consider returning, though it would likely be a second choice.

"I'm a bit of a gourmet chef. I love cooking - mostly Thai food." Will Ferrell Without having the opportunity to try Will Ferrell's culinary skills, I will say that he may very meet his match with 26 Thai Kitchen & Bar. This place has it all; great food, great service, and an incredibly awesome ambiance. The restaurant, an older two story house converted to an intimate, classy, romantic and cool place to have a great evening out. The basil rolls were exceptional and the Pad Thai one of the best both inside and outside of the perimeter. (No offense Will) Service was exceptional as well. Looking forward to returning!

A beautiful Thai restaurant in midtown! The service here is great and the servers were very attentive to our table. The food was okay, but honestly I've had better Thai food. As a Birmingham foodie, I've found my favorite places to get some amazing Thai food- however, this has set my expectation bar quite high. It's not that what we ordered wasn't good, but it didn't live up to past dishes that we've had before. We ordered the Khao Soi and Pad Thai, both with chicken. My favorite of the two was the Khao Soi. The pad Thai was very orange, and the noodles were a bit too chewy. Again, it wasn't bad, but not amazing.

Yes yes yes! This place is forever a favorite of mine. The food is always fresh and flavorful. I love that they have different levels of spice. Honestly, everything on this menu has been great. The chefs do not disappoint. The service is also great. Professional. Everyone was nice and attentive. The place is low lighting. Nice tables and booths. Not too fancy but also not a diner. A perfect middle spot. This place has a special spot in my heart so I definitely recommend you make your way over!

I love 26 Thai. I've raved about this since I first tried it at their Brookhaven location and I've eaten at the midtown location twice now. I went with my boyfriend for our anniversary dinner and it was nice! The ambiance and service were amazing. The tables were a tad bit close together upstairs but that wasn't a huge problem. Me and my boyfriend both ordered the Massaman curry. I got it with tofu and he got it with chicken. It was delicious, although my boyfriend said some of his potatoes were a bit undercooked. He still said it was *the* best Massaman curry he's ever had. I got a sweet tea that was very good. Will definitely be back!

Ordered delivery via Grub Hub. One piece of Roti cost $6. Food was ok. Chicken in the pad kee mao was dry. Crispy tofu in the green curry wasn't so crispy. Rice was a little dried out. Maybe better in restaurant...

Definitely some of the best Thai Food in Atlanta. We got the Drunken Noodles, Basil Chicken, and Basil Tofu. All of the dishes were good but the Drunken Noodles were amazing. The food is aromatic and savory, which we really enjoyed. Sometimes I specifically crave their version of the Drunken Noodles. The ambiance of the restaurant is also really nice and a great dinner spot for different types of occasions. The service was okay -- it felt like they were rushing us at times but since the food and vibe are good I'll give them a pass with that. Definitely worth a visit for the food alone.

Vibes inside were good. Staff was all friendly. That cold Singha beer was amazing. The Pad Thai (medium) looked great, tasted pretty good - not my favorite compared to places in Houston but good enough for me to come back one day. A little pricey though.

I recently went for lunch at 26 Thai in Midtown last Tuesday. I've been meaning to try a lot of the places in the neighborhood. The restaurant is so pretty and the bar seats were very comfortable. I was served by Paul and he was super patient. The kitchen paced my courses with the right timing. I got a Thai Iced Lemonade, Roti Canai, Pad Thai w/ Chicken, and the sticky rice (as one does). Everything was top-notch! I liked that the Pad Thai wasn't mostly for "presentation" as the one at Nan Thai is like. The noodles absorbed the sauce well, too. If there had been slightly more pieces of roti with the curry it would have been able to be used up. I eventually took it home and put it with leftover rice.

Liked | Liked | Liked | Liked | Liked | Liked | Liked | Liked | Liked | Massaman Curry & Roti Tom Yum Ka Everything was really tasty, piping hot and hit the spot for a quick lunch! The decor is really nice! Service at the bar was great! Disliked - Disliked - Disliked - Disliked -Disliked - Disliked - Disliked - The garlic ginger rice was a bit bitter. It kindof threw me off after having such rich and balanced flavors with the soup and curry The lychee panna cotta had a heavy garlic flavor... yes I said garlic... I was really confused but I think it might have been chilled in the fridge around garlic.. Or... I really don't know but I tasted everything individually to locate the flavor, thinking maybe it was the pistachios or something and... it seemed like it was coming from the actual dessert. The raspberry puree also tasted as if it was on it's way out.. Almost.. Fermented? It's a little pricey I'm not going to lie.. But the location might have something to do with it.

This was my first time at 26 Thai. I went for a private event, it was my cousin's graduation. There were 17 of us total. The menu we had was a pre-fixed menu. For the first course, we all had the Thai dumplings, crispy spring roll, crab cheese roll, and the edamame. Each one of these were so good!!! Everything was flavorful and hot. The Thai dumplings and crab cheese roll were definitely my favorite. The dumplings had both shrimp and pork in them with a garlic-ginger soy sauce...SO GOOD. The crab cheese roll was like a Crab Rangoon, but in a spring roll. All four of these appetizers were very good. The second course was coconut soup, a class Thai dish. It was your standard coconut soup, nothing too special here. It was good though! For the third course, we had the option to pick one our of 4. The choices were pad Thai kung, Basil Gai, Pineapple Boat, and the Massaman Curry. I got the Basil Gai and my fiancé got the Massaman Curry. My Basil Gai was good, but BOY, was it spicy!!! It was definitely way hotter than I expected, and I can normally tolerate spicy. The Massaman Curry was really good too. I'm not the biggest fan of Massaman Curry, but my fiancé loved it. Everyone else enjoyed their dishes as well. For dessert, everyone had the toasted coconut ice cream. Such a tasty dessert to finish off a great dinner! I also had a margarita to drink, and other people got some cocktails as well. We also shared some bottles of wine too. This was a great experience at 26 Thai. The staff was very attentive and took care of us the entire duration of dinner. I have nothing but good things to say about this experience. I'll definitely be back.

Found my new favorite Thai Restaurant in Atlanta! So happy I found this Gem. Food and drinks are amazingly delicious, very nice ambiance; but above all, I want to acknowledge every staff member I had contact with, as they were all very welcoming and attentive from the moment I walked in. A very special THANK YOU to Addie for his drink and food recommendations and for being so genuinely kind and attentive. I wish I lived locally so I could eat here frequently.

Neat location in an old home. Went for dinner and got pad see ewe and pad Thai and both were great! Good sized portions. Seated right away without a reservation on a Saturday at 8:30 pm. Drink menu was somewhat pricey, but food was typical prices. A little loud inside, but cool atmosphere.

Surprisingly good thai food, a little pricey, cozy and hip atmosphere. We came with a group of 8 without a reservation on a Wednesday night. We were promptly seated in a private room upstairs. We started with the Thai sampler where you choose 4 appetizers to share. We went with the chicken wings, calamari, edamame and spring rolls. It was a lot of food even for our large group. I think we ended up taking some leftovers home of the chicken wings and calamari. For my main entree, I shared the drunken noodles with beef, ordered a mini yellow curry, a side of rice, and a side of roti. It was more than enough food. Love that you can order mini curries so you can try more dishes. My colleagues also loved the thai pepper steak. All the dishes were the perfect level of spice, definitely thai spice levels. And the drinks were good too. The espresso martini was fantastic. Service was friendly, responsive and prompt. I would definitely come back the next time I'm in Atlanta and craving some thai.

Not even gonna hold you... we just came back from Thailand last month, so I'm a HEAVY CRITIC of Thai food right now lol but I can truly say 26 Thai definitely passed the test with flavor. One of my favorites was the Panang curry which had the perfect amount of spice everything here was actually very good, I will definitely be back! The vibe in here is also great for date or girls night! Be sure to check them out!

I've been to 26 Thai on many occasions. If you're looking for a hole-in-the-wall or mom and pop type place, this is not it. That being said, they have several locations conveniently-placed around the city, and I love that I'm never too far from one of them. The restaurants are dimly lit with nice decor and a tasteful, but not too fancy ambience. My go-to order is the grandma curry. There's a good range of vegetables and the tofu pairs so well with the curry sauce and the rice. I like to order it spicy. I've also ordered the panang curry several times and thoroughly enjoy the creamy, nutty flavor. My only complaint of the menu items I've tried is their tofu appetizer. This app is my favorite at Thai spots and 26 falls short. The dish was soggy tofu triangles. It's literally called "crispy tofu," so you can understand my dismay. The only other reason for not giving five stars is that I feel their prices are a little inflated. I can find the same dishes slightly cheaper elsewhere in the city. And I understand that I might be paying for the aesthetics of the restaurant, but that's not what I go out to eat for.

Visiting from out of town and went here for lunch based on a recommendation. So glad we did! The space was beautiful and comfortable. We arrived early and basically had the restaurant to ourselves. Our server was very nice and always made sure our water glasses were full! I loved the drunken noodles with chicken and my friend loved her green curry. Just enough spice without being overwhelming. Very fresh and prices were fair for the quality! Would definitely return if I'm in the area again!

I came to eat here by myself around 3pm mid week and even though I was eating by myself at an off hour, the staff were really nice and accommodating. I sat at the bar and ordered the panang curry with chicken to eat there and a pad Thai to go. The panang curry was really well made and tasted great. It looked like it would be too large but it ended up being less than I thought it would be (the bowl is pretty shallow) which was actually a perfect serving size in my opinion. The pad Thai, I thought, wasn't very good.. I did eat it that same day so it's not like it was in the refrigerator and was bad for a reheat, something about the taste was just off? I'm not sure why really, just didn't like it! Also the prices were a tiny bit higher than I thought they should be... it's possible that at dinner the ambiance makes up for it, because the restaurant was really nice inside, so I could see it being on the fancier side. I'll probably be happy to go back, just won't order the pad thai again.

Normally would be 5 stars. But... I am disappointed. After years of coming here getting the same dish, Pad Thai Beef - they took off menu and can make it for me. That is just disappointing. Still a good place, but around the country I get Pad Thai Beef when I eat Thai. Now at home in Atlanta I can't get it. I'll have to hunt for a new place with tasty Pad Thai Beet.

Kimberly F.

Yelp
I strongly advise against eating at this restaurant. I ordered the Pad Thai, and it was inedible--the bean sprouts were visibly rotting and gave off a foul odor. When I called to address this with the manager and sent photos, I was told that they wouldn't refund me because "no other customers have ever complained before." This response was incredibly dismissive and unprofessional. Additionally, the restaurant itself is in terrible condition. The building is old and poorly maintained, and the parking situation behind the restaurant is chaotic and inconvenient. If you're looking for great Thai food, I recommend 26 Thai in Brookhaven instead. Don't waste your time or money here.

AMAZING ambiance and service. I personally have gotten the calamari for the appetizer and I highly suggest it ! (very crispy, and the side of lemon is lovely). I have gotten the panang curry and the coconut base is just creamy enough with a little spicy punch! perfect to mix with your jasmine rice. my waitress Aterahme L was lovely as well.

Absolutely amazing location in what looks to be renovated houses. Our server, Wesley, was great. He helped my mom order, and was able to bring out a spice tray when me and my dad found out food to be too mild. One thing I will say is that I read that their food is super spicy. They have 3 levels of spice, and my dish was a level 2, so I was a little nervous, but either the reviewers had an extremely low tolerance (no fault to them), or something was going on in the kitchen because my level 2 was very mild. After I put some chili paste in it though, it was on point. The noodles were also slightly overcooked, but all the other flavors completely made up for it, and the beef was so tender, it was like marshmallow, in a good way. A great place for anyone that likes thai, right in the heart of Midtown Atlanta!

I had a quick lunch here just eating the basil rolls. They were delicious. The decor is lovely inside. Outside looked nice but over 90 today so air conditioning was a must. The service was prompt and attentive. I hope to come back for dinner and try more of the menu. Came back the next night for another taste. This time added the Tom kha soup. It was some of the best I have ever had. Delicious soup with tender mushrooms and plenty of shrimp. I am upgrading my rating.

First time at this location and it didn't disappoint. We had a reservation for 2 on a Friday night and were seated promptly. Our waiter seemed like he had low energy but he was still attentive. I enjoyed the coconut chicken soup and liked that the chicken wasn't dry and rubbery like some places. For entrees we had the pad see ewe and basil Thai fried rice. Both were flavorful. They have good sized portions for the price too, leaving me enough for lunch the next day. We also enjoyed our drinks, especially the twist on a spicy margarita which was a Thai chili margarita.

Thai 26 is an amazing hole in the wall restaurant that is well decorated, homey and has exceptional food! We arrived early and felt like our server was coming every 2 minutes to get us to leave but after our friends arrived simmered down and was very nice. We ordered the 26 Thai platter and our favorite was the fresh basil rolls! We also ordered pad Thai, massaman curry and a few other dishes. To complement we ordered a red wine that was delicious. Highly recommend, great food and great vibes.

Nestled in Midtown, 26 Thai is a hidden gem for Thai food enthusiasts. We arrived around 5:30 PM on a Tuesday to find ourselves the sole patrons. The staff was incredibly attentive--not even exaggerating, they checked on us almost every five minutes...we couldn't help but chuckle at the VIP treatment. If you dig the whole outdoor dining experience, there's a quaint outdoor patio. Inside, though, boasts a vibrant atmosphere with authentic and stylish Thai decor. We enjoyed it. To the important part--drinks. The drinks were the real MVPs. I had the dragonfruit tequila mix called 'Blushing Dragon,' and the 'froze'. Both drinks were refreshing, striking just the perfect balance between refreshing and zest. Regarding the food, my friend's Pad See Ew with Tofu was good--solid, but not groundbreaking. It's a 7/10 from us. My Salmon and Shrimp Panang, on the other hand, was exceptional, particularly when paired with the jasmine rice, earning an 8.5/10. We concluded with the Thai Tea Creme Brulee. It was okay but fell short of our expectations in terms of the Thai tea flavor. It gets a 6/10--decent, but there's room for more oomph. tl;dr: I'd recommend 26 Thai. For the whole experience--drinks, food, and service--I'm giving it a solid 4 stars. It's certainly a spot to check out when you're in ATL.

26 Thai has been on our list for a minute and it had a lot to live up up to given it took up the space where Takorea was which was stellar. We got there on a Friday around 6 and got a great table outside for the 4 of us. We ordered some drinks and I got the blushing dragon which has to by far one of the best restaurant cocktails I've had in a long time. For an app, we got the crispy spring rolls which are a classic but delicious as always!!! For our mains, we split the panang curry with tofu, basil fried rice, drunken noodles and pad Thai. My favorite is the drunken noodles but I am partial to them! The curry was great and the rice had a great spice level. Don't underestimate the pad thai also because it was really good and that's not a fave dish of mine. Overall, the dishes were excellent and vibes are great. I do think it is expensive for Thai food but overall great experience!!

I can't believe I hadn't visited this place sooner! 26 Thai is in the heart of Midtown and I'd always walked past it but never visited until now. I went for an early Saturday dinner with some friends. There's parking next door (we were early enough that it was $10 flat but in the evenings they switch over to valet to fit more cars in the small lot). The space is a converted house with a really chic inside and a large sprawling patio outside which we opted to sit on. Everything about 26 Thai feels really nice and swanky, from really clean, modern silverware to really vibrant cocktails and beautiful plating. For drinks, our table tried the Blushing Dragon (hands down our favorite and such a pretty color!!), Thai Coffee Martini (packs a punch), and the Emerald Dreams (so sweet and coconut-y). We also had the spring rolls for appetizers which are always a classic. For dinner, we went family style and shared a few dishes including pad thai with chicken, panang curry with tofu, drunken noodles with chicken, and the basil fried rice with shrimp + chicken. Everything was so flavorful and had the right amount of heat! The pad thai was my personal favorite, although I also really loved the crispiness of the tofu in the panang curry. Overall, 26 Thai is a great date night spot and great spot for a more upscale Thai experience.

I had a great Mother's Day dinner here! We came on a whim! The server was awesome! We had the calamari, and our drinks were very tasty! I had the drunken noodles with shrimp and my daughter had the pad Thai, both were big servings! We also got Thai iced tea to go! So satisfying! We definitely will come back to have a lunch soon!

Listen I'm going to get right to it.....HELL YES! Go, eat and enjoy! Customer service is wonderful and the food is delicious! I got the shrimp pineapple boat and I was reluctant because I didn't want a bunch of rice! Thank goodness the rice came on the side. That dish was so good my husband tried to literally steal my meal lol! My only disappointment was that they didn't wrap up my whole pineapple bowl to go. I didn't eat it all to save room for dessert, so I asked to have it wrapped up. I didn't know they were going to discard the pineapple it came in because there was still lots of juicy flesh in it. On another positive note, the crab cheese rolls were slamming! They were so good we got an order to take home with us. My husband said his Thai iced tea was one of the best he's had and we've had many. We ordered the shrimp rolls too which were just ok in my opinion. I wouldn't personally get them again, but hey my husband liked them. The coconut cake, coconut gelato, and Thai coffee tiramisu were also divine. Over all I would go back tomorrow if I had time lol! They have nice indoor and out door dining as well as a happy hour drink and appetizer menu. In my opinion this place is definitely a great dining option. Edit. Ok so that pineapple boat with shrimp was so good my husband wanted to go back before we left and we did. Upon our return our experience was EXTREMELY different due to our waiter. He was friendly but he talked entirely too much and was a bit too pushy for our taste. He seemed to suffer from an over active mind and no effective listening skills so when we would ask him questions he wouldn't answer and just automatically say you're getting that yes get that ok. It was pretty weird. And when I got the rest of my food to go I was glad they boxed the whole pineapple but when I got to the air bnb I was super pissed because he put my receipt in the box literally inside of my food which was disgusting so I had to trash it. Mind you between the two visits we spent almost $300 there. I also tried two new things the vegetable coconut soup. It was tasty but it didn't have the chunks of onion and tomatoes like I'm use to so that was disappointing. I also got the Thai tea creme brulee which was delicious. I took two stars away because the second experience was just a huge letdown.

When the date night needs to be right, 26 Thai Kitchen will not disappoint! Located in midtown, this is a very intimate spot, so go with someone you want to talk with! The food is fresh, amazing, and clean to the palate. The Fresh Basil Rolls are a must made with cabbage, cucumber, and carrots, and if you are allergic to peanuts, leave this dish alone and try something else. The Drunken Noodle is also AMAZING! Made with basil, pepper,onion, and love! It's definitely a great spot for a date night! The service was amazing, by the way!

the place is so cute! it's a house turned into a restaurant. the bathrooms are nice and provide what you need; always a plus for me. the workers are attentive but not overbearing. their food was good, highly recommend the appetizer that lets you pick 4 plates. we had a party of 5 so they seated us in a private room. i got a curry dish with crispy chicken + side of jasmine rice; 8/10! nice flavor and the chicken wasn't dry but crispy. they said it was mildly spice but it wasn't spicy at all for me. the thai tea was too sweet for me but was made from real tea

One of my favorite Thai spots in Atlanta. I often order takeout from here, and they package everything really nicely. Service is always great when dining in as well.
