"A-Roi is the third restaurant from the duo behind Smiley Thai in Mt. Juliet and Poy Thai in Goodlettsville. While the menu at their new West Nashville location has a decidedly strong Japanese influence, you can taste some of the reliably consistent Thai flavors their Mt. Juliet location is known for. Just look to the special dishes section of the menu where you’ll find pad cha talay hot pan, green and red curries, and massaman beef stew served in a sleek and modern space." - Clara Wang, Jackie Gutierrez-Jones

This was our second time visiting A-roi, as a Thai native the food is incredibly amazing. My favorite one was "Pad Kra Pao Moo Krob" and "Kao soi gai." Not only the food but our favorite Bartender "Yod" is wonderful, he is super helpful and makes the best cocktail! Ask to try his signature, balanced and refreshing cocktail! Bringing family and friends here is recommended. The service always on point. The vibe is chilling and welcomed. Their rooftop is the best rooftop in Nashville! Definitely coming back soon!

I recently dine at your restaurant to celebrate my husband birthday and wanted to express my utmost satisfaction. The food was not only delicious but also showcased a level of culinary expertise that impressed me. The service was exceptional, with a staff that was attentive and courteous. I was equally pleased with the punctual delivery service, and the presentation of the dishes was nothing short of sophisticated. It's evident that your team takes pride in delivering a top-notch dining experience. I look forward to my next visit!

We found out about this Thai-Japanese themed restaurant on Instagram when it opened a couple of months ago and had wanted to try it out. We came in on a sunny Saturday for dinner. The place was already crowded around 7 pm but the parking was no issue, plenty of street parking spots. In terms of food and drinks: - Kyoto Matcha IPA - An interesting drinking for sure. Veggie-juice like color. The matcha flavor was not very strong and it tasted like regular IPA in my opinion. - Passion Fruits Heaven - Loved this one. Bourbon added a bunch of citrus juice with a pineapple slice to add some kick. Definitely a great drink choice for the hot summer. - Grilled Squid - This one was really good. The BBQ was right on spot, the squid was tender, chewy with a bit smoky flavor and a little sweet. - Tuna and salmon Sashimi - Fresh and delicious. High quality. - Khao Soi Gai - This was my favorite dish of the meal. Curry broth with pan-fried noodles and lots of vegetables and sliced chicken. Spicy, sweet, creamy and lots of flavor. Highly recommended it if you wanna try authentic Thai food.

Alright let's dive into it, our Annual Galentine's Day we chose this lovely place. I love the service and atmosphere. Some of the foods were okay for our table but not something we would order again on our next visit but we did enjoy our time embracing the atmosphere. Parking may be a challenge if street and private lot is full but otherwise while we were there 15mins after opening on Sunday we found street/private lot parking free and easy to find. Drinks: -Thai Coffee: 10/10 -Mrs. Collins: 8/10 Appetizers: -Fried Oysters: 10/10 -Ima Maruyaki: 10/10 Mains: -Pad Kee Mao: 7/10 -BBQ Pork Noodle Soup: 8/10 Signature Rolls: -The Devils: 7/10 Dessert: -Mango Sticky Rice: 10/10

We finally braved the ice and checked out this absolutely gorgeous new spot down the street from us. We were WOWED! The interior is just gorgeous. Service was perfect— our server, Jun Joshua, was so kind and helpful. We ordered chicken wings, seaweed salad, two makimono, and an absolutely delicious pork belly dish. All were superb. Excellent quality ingredients, fabulous flavor. We loved everything! Thai coffee and green tea ice cream in wafers for dessert— all incredible. We will be regular customers for sure.

We were blown away! We tried several items from the fried dumpling (not like most and loaded with meat!) to sushi and main course. Service was great and atmosphere was one of the best! Will be going back - with friends!

Love this new spot in town. It's quite large inside, with a newly opened rooftop. The parking is pretty simple, with free street parking all around the block. I've been several times now. I love getting their squid or squid salad. Their lychee martini has been hit or miss, either really good or really bad the times I've ordered. But my favorite dish is the pad Thai. The noodles are super thin, and it has a sweet taste to it. The happy hour deals are killer. I'd love to come back for the rooftop soon!

Yelp
Wow! Amazing place, great people, delicious food! The Thai tea is the best I've ever had, the place is beautiful and the service was amazing! Shoutout to our server for her outstanding service! I had the basil fried rice and it was very good, but the beef was a little dry. The pad kee mao wasn't as good as ones I've had before, but still pretty good! I got medium heat (their lowest) and it was still pretty fricking spicy. *Note: I love that! But for more sensitive people, it may be appreciated to add another heat level lower!* We also go some Thai special noodle dish called khao soi gai, that was really special, I liked it a lot as well. We got fried oysters as our appetizer and it was really good! Really hot but yummy! Thai tea: 11/10 Basil fried rice: 9/10 Pad kee mao: 7/10 Khao soi gai: 8/10 Fried oysters: 8/10

The ambiance of this place is amazing- moody/sexy vibes. Great date night spot! We started with crab rangoon- more of a pimento cheese rangoon...very tasty by surprised the menu didn't mention they were non-traditional. Also had the wonton soup- so yummy with really fresh flavors! Then we split the pad thai-which was extremely saucy just like we like it. :) and the red curry which was nice and spicy! Ambiance Service Yumminess Portion size Price Will definitely be back!!

Found a thai sushi place in Nashville! Only a few minutes from Parthenon! The family of 11 went in Saturday. The kind receptionist took us in swiftly. Place looks appealing and we're loving the aesthetic. Ordered and pictured is as follows amaretto sour, spring rolls, hamachi carpaccio, grilled mackerel, padthai, green curry pork belly and crab fried rice. Ended with deep fried cheesecake with matcha ice cream and creme brulee

We got the khao soi gai, fried oysters, crab fried rice, oysters, red hulk roll, yakitori, kids lo mein, grilled prawns, and ika maruyaki. Everything was delicious! The only thing I think we could've done without was the grilled prawns. Those were alright. But definitely order everything else, esp the fresh oysters and grilled squid. I can't wait to come back and try more things and get my fix on just about everything I ordered this first visit.

I came here to meet up with a friend after work and it also happened to be during happy hour. I was also pleased to see that there's a large selection of Thai and Japanese food. This includes their specials board (regular meals & entrees) but also sushi rolls you can order. (it was a tab bit pricey, however, my friend and I ate it family style and were pleased for the most part.) Their cocktail & marg were great too, and priced fairly in my opinion in comparison to most places around town. The server we had was also very friendly and helpful in terms of guiding us with what we should order. Inside the store was relatively calm, not too busy, and neat for the most part. I'm more than positive you can also order takeout if you don't want to dine in. (my friend ordered an entree to-go so I could be wrong)

Brooklynn K.

Yelp
Overall, vibes are good and food is good. I would not say great, especially for cost. To start, the cocktails are delicious and priced on par with most speciality cocktails around town. The crab Rangoon is the best I've ever had in my life. The drunken noodles were not it. They lacked flavor and had fennel chunks (or something like it) and tomatoes (which I've never seen in drunken noodles) which threw off the texture experience on top of not having flavor or heat. I had a sip of my friend's Thai tea which I love, so this passed the test. Service was good. The place was still pretty new when I went so it felt like it was still a learning stage but that's okay. I'd go back for a happy hour with deals but otherwise if I want Thai, I'll look for one of the other spots.

This place was primarily chosen for its location. We were on our way back to KY from MS which takes us through Nashville. I was intrigued that this restaurant is a Thai-Japanese cuisine. Some of the menu items are stated in Japanese style but not spelled correctly in the Romanjin. I'm guessing it may be based on the Thai origin and their spelling of the Japanese words. Either way, their menu relayed an authentic concept of both cuisines. Their specials menu had a word written in Katakana that I couldn't decipher since it seemed more like a word that'd be in Hiragana. Either way, it was nice to see their efforts of authenticity. I had the Ika Maruyaki. A teriyaki style grilled squid. This was nostalgic for me as I grew up with a similar dish as a child. The squid was a tad bit too chewy that made it slightly difficult to chew. At one point it got stuck in my throat. Thankfully, I had chewed it enough to swallow instead of choke. Upon seeing the specials menu, the escargot caught my attention. Flavor was good and with the milk toast offered balance. However, like the squid it was not as tender and easy to consume. The last bite had something that felt a tad sharp that led me to spit it out. Between both dishes, I think if it may be related to the timing of the cooking on both items. The particular escargot they served was much larger than I'm used to, which was exciting to see. Just disappointing that I couldn't enjoy it was well as anticipated. We were told the entree items were large enough to serve two. We ordered the Pad Thai. Flavor wise was perfection to my standards. Portion, a little less than what I expected from the description we were given. I enjoyed my lychitini. Given that I like Passion Fruit, I true the Passion Fruit Heaven next. It's a bit too strong for me, but that's just me. I think if I were more of a bourbon fan, I'd enjoy it more. Every item on their cocktail menu has me planning another visit to try more. We ended our meal with the tiramisu and sticky rice. My husband is a tiramisu fan. He enjoyed it but stated he wasn't wowed. The mango sticky rice was ideal and exactly what I wanted to close out my dinner. The cheesecake is probably what I'll attempt on the next visit. They did honor a military discount. I plan to try the fried squid on the next visit.

Okay this place is awesome and they have an amazing happy hour with good food and good drinks ! The service was great, very attentive and swift to refill our water glasses. I went for happy hour and decided to order a main dish. The happy hour plates were a spicy tuna roll and chicken wings, both delicious the wings were big with tons of meat! This is probably best pad thai I've had in Nashville! I will be coming back for a full dinner experience

This place is a 10/10 in every aspect!!! Loved the interior of the restaurant for date night. All the food was spectacular, especially the khao soi gai and the salmon roll. The quality of the fish is so fresh. We received our food quickly and our waiter checked on us often. There is parking on the street. Would love to come back again soon!

We have been so excited to visit A-Roi and it did not disappoint! We sat at the bar on a Wednesday night and had great service with a big tv right in front of us (which we prefer). The restaurant was not busy but also wasn't empty that it felt awkward. The menu is quite large and everything looked so good! It was tough to decide what to order but I am VERY happy with our choices. The red hulk and the Clifton rolls were absolutely delicious. The pad Thai was different from others because of how light it was. I loved it!! The fried dumplings were a little too fried in my opinion but my boyfriend loved it. The tuna crudo flavor was amazing, however I would have liked the tuna to be cut a bit thicker. This could just be how the meal is supposed to be though. Over all I highly recommend!!! The restaurant itself is gorgeous with big windows and I love how they have a separate sushi bar as well. I will definitely be back!

Yelp
So good! We got Sunday night takeout including Pad Grapow Moo Krop (with an extra egg) and basil fried rice with chicken. Both dishes were really tasty, with generous portions of meat and fresh, crunchy veggies. We loved the crab Rangoon too! Our order was ready right when it was promised, and everything was well packaged. The space looks so pretty inside, so we're looking forward to coming back and eating in the dining room.

YUM! I will echo everyone else's sentiments that the vibes and food are both amazing. I had Khao Soi Gai in Thailand several years ago and had been dreaming about it ever since, thrilled that there is somewhere to get it in Nashville!!

Mush M.

The restaurant is clean, dimly lit, with nice decorations. The food for the most part is fresh and delicious. However the chef that cuts the fish and or meat could use some professional training. While the portions of tuna nigiri may be generous, the cuts of the fish are too thick. You could save money and save the texture and taste. As a piece of tuna may be too strong, you definitely don't want it cut thick. It's is too thick in general. And the wagyu beef is also cut too thick for just a quick torch. I don't want beef tartare; I want thin buttery melt it your mouth wagyu beef. I would rank this place as top 5 Japanese in Nashville.

Food service and ambiance are all excellent. Curries and sushi are top notch. I love the roti, and the pad Thai native hot! I've had 90% of their menu and haven't run across a single thing I wouldn't try again.

Went to this restaurant on 06/14 at 1pm. Service was good. We were seated for at least 15 minutes before our serve took our order. Slow but that's ok. The restaurant was not busy at all. Only 3 table sat the entire time I was there. Initially I ordered pad grapow. The pork belly was extremely tough and dry. Asked for medium spice. There was no spice. Server graciously returned the food and I got the crab fried rice. Spice level was great but dish lacked flavor. I also had the bang bang sushi roll, another dish with high expectations and lackluster flavor. Lastly I had the lychetini. Unfortunately my friend and I both thought it reminded us of children's strawberry flavored robtussin. So $74 dollars later, I will say the ambiance is great, service is solid but food is not worth any price. Looks can be deceiving.

Lyna M.

Yelp
Wow!!! This place was amazing!! From the food to the ambience! Everything was delicious! The servers was so attentive and made sure we lacked nothing. The food was flavorful and phenomenal! We got the shishitos pepper and it's prob one of the best I have ever had. It was cooked to perfection had a nice little crunch and laid on this sauce that was soo good. Then we oysters was also good. Then we shared the crab noodle curry which is one of our favorite dish of the night, pad cha talay hot pan, pad kee Mao and pad grapow moo krop. They were all delicious!

Truly Aroi! I love Thai food, my wife lived there for years & we frequent Thai Phooket religiously. It's our go to comfort food. Japanese cuisine is just below that level of affection but equally revered in our household. When I saw the reviews starting to come in for A-Roi I made it a priority to get here soon with some of my best foodie friends & resident Thai food snob (my wife). Made reservations for six people on a Wednesday at 7 PM. I arrived a little early around 640 and was seated immediately. The space is dim lit & gives romantic vibes. The bar to the right is well furnished & the center sushi bar compliments the wider dining area well. They have done a good job with decor & aesthetics. I spent 10 mins or so perusing the drink & food menus before the rest of my party arrived, and we started ordering. I started with the Thai mule, which honestly is my favorite iteration of the classic drink that I've had thus far. It was crisp, refreshing, aromatic AF, & presented wonderfully. Had it not been a Wednesday and had I not been up since 6 AM I probably would've had a second. I also had a damn good Thai tea here. Rich black tea with the perfect whipped blend of sweetened condensed milk. Diabetes in a glass but so worth it. One of the specials of the day was the pork Katsu cutlet with curry. I originally came here with the mindset that I was going to try two or three things sticking, mostly to the Thai inspired dishes but Japanese curry and fried pork is my favorite comfort food so when it's available I must partake for mental health reasons. It was a very large portion of curry with a nice size amount of fried pork, cutlet, aromatic rice, and I think pickled cabbage. Tasty as expected & made a hell of a lunch the next day. also, on the specials menu was a soy sesame Lotus dish. I did not inquire about its preparation or whether it was served hot or cold, because I freaking love lotus & it sounded good. I was correct, it was thinly sliced & soaked in a umami filled sauce & cooked just enough to preserve the perfect crunch. My wife got the Kao Soi Gai & loved it. She has not been as pleased with a dish as she was with this in some time & even showed her appreciation by complimenting the chef in Thai via our waiter. Looking forward to coming back her again to try some more of the menu. Wishing them nothing but success.

I always have a great time when visiting A-Roi and it helps that its walkable in my neighborhood. If you're looking for a killer lychee martini.. look no further. The staff is amazing and everything comes out perfectly staged. My faves are the crab fried rice, salmon sashimi, and pork belly dish! Whewww! I always sit at the bar. It's nicely decorated and a great selection of spirits !

Wow! We just had the most amazing dining experience at this beautiful restaurant. We tried the raw oysters(so fresh!), shishito peppers(addicting!), uni sashimi(wow!!), chicken pad thai(incredible) and duck panang(beyond delicious). Every cocktail we had was very well crafted and refreshing as well, but what truly made our evening unforgettable was the exceptional service. The servers and wait staff went above and beyond to make my husband's birthday extra special. They helped me orchestrate a surprise that left him beaming from ear to ear. Their attention to detail and genuine care made us feel like royalty. We'll definitely be back for more delicious food and incredible hospitality. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a taste of Thailand with a side of impeccable service!

This is one of the best restaurants in Nashville, no joke. Not only is it beautiful, but the food is 100% delicious, great staff too! They are blessed with the best sushi chef in Nashville, his name is Koji. The sushi and the cooked food are both fantastic. I've loved everything I've tried so far, which includes the Miso and wonton soup, The dumplings, Pad Thai, KHAO SOI GAI (I've had the twice!) tofu, HAMACHI CARPACCIO (I've had this three times, so good!) My dining companions have mostly eaten sushi and they have loved everything they have gotten, including the Uni. Go try it, you can thank me later!

OMG, very tasty authentic Japanese food. After spending two years in Japan I have been hard pressed to find delicious Japanese/Thai food in Nashville. A-Roi By Smiley Thai delivers! We started with Shishitos Peppers, Gyoza, Crab Rangoon, Oysters on the Half Shell, and Yakitori. Everything was delicious, flavorful with the taste and flavor of Japan. My cocktail was a Lychitini which was my first time trying one and I loved it. Very light and refreshing. We also had The Clifton Rolls which my Son said were very good. I ordered the Crab Fried Rice and I was pleasantly surprised to see the fluffy, moist rice that contained egg, Crab, peas, carrots and all the veggies I had grown accustomed to having in Fried Rice. It wasn't just Fried Rice alone. The restaurant is decorated beautifully, the waitresses were very attentive. A-Roi by Smiley Thai has gained a new customer. Thank you for bringing these uniques flavors to Nashville.

Stop what you're doing and go eat at this restaurant. It is phenomenal! Hands-down the best sushi AND Thai restaurant in all of Nashville. I don't say that lightly as someone who's lived in New York, Chicago and has eaten all over the US. I'm skeptical of most places that do sushi and Thai but they nail it. The fish is incredibly fresh and high-quality. The Toro and the tuna are both exquisite. I've had their regular Maki and signature rolls as well. It's clear they use high quality ingredients and know how to put them together. The problem is their Thai food is amazing too. The roti curry appetizer is slap a baby good. Don't question it just order it. We've also tried their chicken pad Thai (best in the city), garlic, chicken, and crispy pork belly with basil. OMG. Throw on top of this a great ambience and some of the sweetest people in the restaurant business, and we now have my new favorite restaurant. The only downside is you pay for the quality as it's a bit pricier than other options. Regardless, I will work overtime , or have a special budget just to come eat here once a week. Although I don't want the place to get so crowded that I can't walk in anymore, pease support this restaurant and go there today. You will not regret it. FYI, I have no relationship with any of the owners. I just love their food so much I'm scared they will close one day LOL

Good, not great, mostly based on the prices. The restaurant is very nice, and comforting, and the service was very good. The Tori Katsu Yakisoba could have had a bit more seasoning, esp. the chicken. Pad grapow moo krop was good, but the pork belly was a little tough. Cocktails had interesting and out of the ordinary flavors, but a lot of ice diluted the flavor quite a bit. For $100 for 2 people (before tip), we expected better.

We live downtown and are always looking for sushi or Thai food. We saw this place and knew we had to try it! They have a little both! Tucked away this place has great ambience and the hospitality was one of the best parts! We usually sit at a table because sushi bars usually don't look comfortable (top is too high and is not enough room on on the surface of the bar. Also the sushi chefs usually don't speak. Not this place! We decided to sit at the sushi bar and we are glad we did! Immediately they told us that if we had any questions they would be happy to help and we had the best conversation. (Not to mention we live downtown and we remembered the Sushi chef Koji, he owned a place that used to be downtown on 2nd Ave. years ago). What a pleasant surprise. We tried a little bit of everything. We started with dumplings, edamame and Blue Fin tuna Crudo! The tuna portion was plentiful and the presentation did not disappoint. It even had gold flecks and flower petals. Definitely some of the most amazing bluefin tuna we have had in Nashville. We had some Toro Nigri Amazing! Then we ventured to try some Thai. The owner suggested "Khao Soi Gai" It had chicken in a coconut broth with noodle and these crunchy noodles on top. The flavors were a party in your mouth! Everything was presented beautifully! Next trip we will just ask Koji to make us whatever he suggests! If you like this kind of thing, then this is your place!! We will be long time friends of this amazing "little gem!

We live in the neighborhood so we called in an order to-go and used the 15% off flyer they left on our door. I walked in and was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere as it is unassuming from outside. Service was solid but the hostess was busy taking calls so I had to wait about five minutes before she was able to help me. Not a big deal at all. She grabbed the food quickly and I was on my way. I couldn't give a 5-star rating for service & atmosphere because we didn't dine-in so my experience was relatively limited. The food however, delicious. We were delighted because solid thai food is tough to find in the Nashville area. You pay for it as it's a little expensive. But what isn't these days. We are looking forward to getting back there soon.

The restaurant is absolutely beautiful! The staff was super friendly including the manager that came over to see how we learned about A-Roi. The restaurant is also open from 12 to 9 which is great for a late lunch. My chirashi bowl was not only a stunner but the quality of fish was on point! We are already planning on our next visit, thank you!

Hands down the best Thai food we've found in Nashville. The restaurant itself is beautiful. It's fairly new, so I feel like they're still working out some service issues, but the food was absolutely amazing! This will be our new preferred Thai restaurant, and we're so happy to have found it.

This place was SO delicious. We had steamed dumplings & shishito peppers which were so so good. I had the lo mein and ate every bite. Two others got signature dishes that they loved too. They brought out the pictured green tea icecream in a waffle and was it AMAZE!! Will be back. Beautiful ambience and friendly service.

We were greeted warmly at the door and seated by the hostess. She gave us some menu tips. Our server gave us more tips about starters and sushi rolls. Everything was fantastic! We can't wait to go back and try the rice bowl and curry.

Thai food in Nashville! Let's talk about it. The staff was great, the ambiance was nice! Okay, so, always bear in mind this is based on what i had specifically: chicken wings and Pad Thai The chicken wings were great! Double fried with a spicy and sweet sauce. As for the Main entree, this could be on me for going for a safe dish, but i just wasn't blown away. The portions were great, and everything was cooked well! But it was just missing some key flavors that i was really looking for. For the price of it $16-18 depending on meat, i feel like it shouldn't be lacking in flavor. I've had the equivalent at Siam for $11. All that to say, i will be back to try other things though! I wouldn't say that it wasn't good by any means, just that for the price, i expected a tad bit more.

So often in Nashville, you are forced to choose between quality, ambiance, price and convenience. From first impression, this place has it all! Only got takeout so I can not speak to service. Setting was gorgeous - we are excited to go back and dine in Crab Rangoons were very good! Crab Curry Noodles were the star of the show - fresh, spicy, and loaded with crab.
