Thai dishes, curries, sides, and wine in a polished setting
"Dozens of metal lanterns are suspended overhead, many embellished with delicate designs that cast glimmers of swirling lights across patent leather seating and hardwood floors. Sage green booths are separated by weathered wood beam partitions in a lane that frames the center of the restaurant in staggering geometry — while one side of the restaurant is illuminated by arch-shaped windows. It comes together for an effect that is uniquely romantic, emphasized by warming servings of crispy roasted duck with panang curry sauce, spicy drunken noodles with steak, and poached lobster tail with herby lemongrass sauce." - Janna Karel
"Fans of Bank Atcharawan and his Thai food can visit his new Lamaii in Chinatown. Atcharawan was the sommelier at Lotus of Siam, and went on to open Chada Thai & Wine and Chada Street. At Lamaii, find super flavorful Thai pork salad, fried pork with fish sauce, Thai oysters, Thai beef salad, drunk noodles, fried rice, curry, and more." - Janna Karel
"Bank Atcharawan, the former sommelier for Lotus of Siam is the driving force behind Lamaii. This Chinatown Thai restaurant marks the triumphant return of Atcharawan to the neighborhood following the closure of the beloved Chada Thai & Wine in 2018. Lamaii features an upscale setting with a touch of romance. Dishes include sai oui grilled Northern curry sausage, moo ma now spicy grilled pork jowl with lime, boat noodle soup, and fried red snapper with sweet fish sauce." - Janna Karel
"I head to Lamaii in Chinatown for killer Thai noodles served beneath golden chandeliers." - Janna Karel
"Located on Spring Mountain Road, Lamaii combines Atcharawan’s passions for creative, accessible dishes with a carefully curated but affordable wine list; those elements define the restaurant's approachable Thai cuisine and are being carried over to a new Henderson location." - Bradley Martin
