Siam Cuisine

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We loved our experience at SIAM Cuisine on White Bridge Road! You order at the counter, so it’s quick and casual, but the food is full of flavor and absolutely delicious. The menu has so many great dishes to choose from, and everything we tried was fresh and satisfying. The service was warm and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. It’s not a sit-down dinner kind of place, but it was perfect for a relaxed meal. We had a wonderful time and definitely plan to come back!

Absolutely delicious food and service. We weren't rushed. Came after lunch hour so it was nice and quiet. I do prefer the upholstered seats and pillows they used to have to the cafeteria style tables and chairs, though. Thank you for a wonderful lunch!!

First time here. The decor is basic but nice and clean. Fantastic red curry with chicken. My husband's basil fried rice was stunning! We finished with the house made coconut ice cream. Ohemgee! Best ever! Nice touch with the chicken soup and a spring roll accompaniment. We will definitely be back!

Siam restaurant offers a pleasant experience for those seeking authentic Thai cuisine in a peaceful, family-friendly setting. We opted for the Papaya Salad, Duck, and Panang Curries, all of which lived up to our expectations of delicious Thai flavors. The only disappointment was the complimentary soup served at the beginning, which unfortunately did not meet our taste preferences. Overall, Siam provides a solid choice for Thai food enthusiasts looking for a cozy dining atmosphere.

A great find for Thai food in Nashville. We tried several dishes--all fantastic. I like that they bring four different hot and spice sauces to the table, so you can add additional heat yourself. You don't have to commit to a mild, medium, or hot when you order (at other restaurants)...and then find out the entree is milder or hotter than what you expected. The fried banana dessert and the coconut ice cream were delicious, too.

I frequent Siam cuisine. This is, in my opinion, the best restaurant in Nashville. The staff is incredibly friendly, the food is slap your momma good, huge portion, and the atmosphere is fantastic.

Delicious food, great prices, great location with easy parking, clean lovely atmosphere and most important to the manager, owner, lovely server who we call Ms. Elegant, and Jay, the chef, THANK YOU FOR BEING A PLACE WHERE OUR BROTHER LOVED COMING, FELT COMFORTABLE, LOVED STEAMED RICE AND STEAMED CHICKEN which nourished him. Jimmy's Family Thanks You.

I have eaten at Siam Cuisine numerous times and am never disappointed. Parking can sometimes be terrible (not enough spaces)... I recently came with family for dinner on a Friday evening, and we had a wonderful time. The atmosphere here is casual. The food is delicious. The service is great. I ordered the House Special "Cashew Nut" with squid. There was more food than I could finish. It comes with a side of rice. Note: You can customize the spiciness on a scale of 1 to 5. Level 5 = Native Thai. If you really enjoy spice, request the spice tray. It has four different types of spices. Some are pickled. I also reccomend the mango icecream or fried bananas for dessert.

First of all, I'm going to give them another try. We ordered delivery: dumplings, pad see ew, and Panag curry. The flavor was good, I should gotten it spicier, but I am always conservative when I try a new Thai spot (that's not their fault, I ordered it that way.) My complaint is the portions, they were so SMALL! The curry had about a tablespoon of liquid in it. The dumplings were tasty but they're tiny and they only give you four. I think I'll go back in person and see if the portions were better. By the time you paid for delivery and tip it was $55 and we were both still hungry.

Food and service is great. Ambiance is gone--loved the old decor and it seems like a diner/fast food restaurant.

I was so excited to try this and ended up super disappointed. I got the basil fried rice and spring rolls. Spring rolls were good, but only came with 2. I got the fried rice with shrimp, which cost extra, were tasteless, and only came with 5 shrimp in the whole thing. The rice was also extremely mushy and soggy. Spent $25 and still ended up getting more food from somewhere else.

The food is as good as it gets. Picked up a small order to go and we were treated and taken care of by owner and daughter with kindness and professionalism. We plan to return with friends. Delicious food.

After months of their renovation, I met with a couple of friends for lunch. Gone is the ambience of the former Siam. I thought the food was mediocre. There wasn't any carpet or anything to absorb sound so it's a nightmare for folks with any hearing loss. There is now a large, tall counter to order food from--cafeteria style. No more wait staff. The counter is high with no part that is lower for people who are wheelchair users. Seems like folks with disabilities aren't valued or wanted. So much for the requirements of the Americans with Disability Act! When my friends can't go to places, I don't go either. It's too bad. The former Siam Cafe was a "go-place" for us and our friends. No more.

This place looks very unassuming but is one of the best Thai places I've been to in Nashville. I got the spring rolls, pad Thai, and green curry. Everything was hot, fresh, and delicious. I'll be going back for sure.

I was a long time regular here for years until the recent closing and renovation/reopening. My favorite dish was Hung Ray with chicken, native Thai. Sadly, the new version of this restaurant does not have it on the menu. I ordered the red curry and was sadly disappointed. Nothing special. We went for lunch. No longer do you get a small soup with a spring roll as part of the lunch. Instead, it just the curry which is way too much for a lunch and for a dinner size price. Not crazy about the service (or lack thereof) either. Just someone at the counter taking orders. I remember the former owner stopping by our table to visit from title to time. Essentially, everything that made the old place special has been stripped away. Overpriced for lunch and underwhelming. I miss the old Siam Cuisine!

Siam Cuisine has the best under $10 lunch deal ever! For $9.50 we enjoyed delicious soup, a yummy egg roll, and a full plate of rice and our choice of any entree. We asked for chicken (or shrimp) cashew curry - called Hung Ray Curry. Delicious! Plus the service is impeccable, along with the ambiance. And what a deal! I had so much food, I took home leftovers. Highly recommend.

I was craving Asian food today, but my friend/coworker is very picky about what kind of Asian food he eats. I give him a pass because he's Caucasian and you can't expect everyone to like all Asian food. I think being Korean myself, I'm genetically programmed to like all Asian food. So today, I suggested Thai food over ramen/sushi/Vietnamese/Korean/Japanese and he said OK. I was going to go to Thai Esane, which seems the popular spot for Thai in the downtown area, but after seeing the reviews on both Yelp & Google... I decided not to go there. Simply because the comments on the food & price varied considerably. I mean who wants to pay $20 for a dish I can probably get at a legit "hole-in-the-wall" Thai restaurant? After a quick search for Thai places that were not Thai Esane, I settled on Siam Cuisine because it was the most promising. Arriving to the White Bridge neighborhood, Siam Cuisine was tucked away in an office building. It's quite big for what it is, but with it being a time of the year where traffic is cut in half, there weren't that many patrons. When I eat Thai, I always get Pad Thai or some type of curry. I know that's what I like and I'm afraid to stray from that. Maybe it was the rainy weather, but I was craving a soup & curry that day. I ended up with the Tom Kha Gai Soup (cup for $3) as an appetizer. Chicken poached in coconut milk and loaded with onions, mushrooms, green onions, lime juice, and silver galangal (Thai ginger). The soup was very strong and pungent. I think it had to come from the fish sauce, which is used in a lot of Asian cuisine. Despite the fishy smell, man was it delicious. The coconut milk made it sweet, the fish sauce made it salty, the lime juice made it sour. It's a very complex soup and with all the meat and veggies, it was absolutely filling. For my entrée, I selected the lunch portion ($9) of the Kang Ped (red curry) with pork meat. Spicy curry sauce, coconut milk, bamboo shoots, bell peppers, mushrooms, peas, carrots, and basil leaves are loaded into a bowl. There's a lot to love about Thai curry and this one doesn't disappoint. It's sweet, it's spicy, it's hearty, it's filling. On top of all that food, 2 vegetarian spring rolls came with the lunch entrée. Excellent, authentic Thai food is what Siam Cuisine offers. Not only is this place super affordable (I can't tell you the last time I got this much quality food for $12), but you could technically eat here for under $10 (sans the soup). I'll definitely come back to this spot for future lunch adventures!

A classic for the community. We adore Siam Cuisine. Dishes that taste like home. Excellent.

No toilet paper in bathroom. No napkins or utensils for takeout order. Food was average.

One of my go to spots for Thai food in Nashville. It's tasty, quick, and affordable. I was craving some good Thai food so I ordered some take out and was not disappointed. The Pad Thai was tasty as usual. The Spicy Eggplant was my next favorite dish - a good mix of vegetables with a perfect level of spice. The Pad Ka Prao was just alright - chicken seemed a bit dry but the flavor was good. Our entrees also came with some tasty white rice and a green spicy creamy soup - don't know the name of it but it was quite good. Leftovers were also great!

Definitely my fav Thai in Nashville. It's very authentic. I love that they use fresh vegetables. They make it when you order it. The owner is usually around helping out. Siam has been around forever and I am so grateful they have survived. Love this place! Highly recommend the red curry!

Excellent food! The tea was strong and very sweet. The muscles were amazing! The bean thread salad had good flavor but was a little dry. I'll def be coming back to try more of the menu!

3.75 stars Pros: Timely delivery via Doordash. Food in general tastes pretty good but nothing amazing. We had the egg rolls, Tom kha gai and pa kee meow. The price is reasonable for Nashville. Cons: it's a little weird that they used Italian spaghetti noodles for the Thai noodles. It just didn't taste the same. It's like using vermicelli noodles for Italian meatball pasta, or using chopsticks to eat a hamburger. Even though the flavor was good , the texture is just not the same. Also their egg rolls are tiny at $1.50 each I would think they at least make them a regular size instead of mini egg rolls. I would probably try other Thai places before ordering from here again. However I know it's the pandemic and restaurants are struggling so I gave higher ratings than normal to show some support.

Best noodles in Nashville! I order the Kao Soi with beef at least 3x a week friendly service and affordable prices. My secret spot!

Food was good but service was very slow even though the restaurant was rather empty. Taking the order took more than half hour.

Food was terrible. Chicken was burned and dried up. The salad was salty. The owner was nice and finally checked on the quality of the meal only after we had pushed our plates away. Pricey meal that we could not eat. Will not return.

It's a hided and underrated tai food restaurant! Really authentic and delicious! Highly recommend people to come here! Love their homemade ice cream and fried banana as dessert!

Our last meal in Nashville was an authentic family run That restaurant. The restaurant was socially distanced and service was prompt. I had Kow Soy and my wife had green chilli on rice. We both enjoyed our meals. There was definitely some kick if you order at medium spice level which was great.

Siam Cuisine is a small, modest Thai restaurant in West Nashville off of White Bridge Road in a little shopping center. The parking lot is a bit tight but was fine when I came on a weekday. Although I ordered takeout and did not dine in I noticed that the ambiance is nice and has traditional Thai decor. I would definitely try eating in sometime since it did have a nice feel to the space. Their lunch specials are served from 11:30 am-2:30 pm and are $6.95 for your choice of entree served with 2 fried spring rolls and a cup of soup. I got chicken panang curry as my entree with brown rice (they didn't charge me extra for brown instead of white like other places do) which to my delight had a lot of chicken in the dish. When I called my order in I realized I forgot to tell them the spice level I wanted so I panicked when I got the dish thinking it would be too spicy. However, it was a medium to mild level of spice so it was actually perfect. The spring rolls were pretty typical of any place but I did like the soup. It was almost like a chicken noodle soup without the noodles--just chicken with celery and carrots in a broth which is simple but comforting. Service was great. When I called in they said it would be 10 minutes and when I got there they went to the back to get it and it was ready. The cashier was so sweet and they seem really nice there. They are very polite so I imagine that dining in the service would also be good. Overall great experience even if just for takeout. The food and service were great, the curry tasted authentic and I would return.

This is some of the best Thai food available. I have no clue why past me rated this a 3. Clearly I had suffered head trauma or dehydration or something. I've been to this place a few dozen times over the last decade and I wish I lived closer. All the curries are great, massaman is a personal favorite. You may think that the Pad Thai seems like boring choice, but you're very wrong. Get it spicy with shrimp or tofu (imo) and try your hardest to not eat it all. Because leftovers are amazing. The appetizers are so good you could easily eat just them. And then you might have leftovers. Don't think I haven't tried this exact plan myself. I'm going to have to drive to Nashville just to go to Siam.

I highly recommend this place. The food was outstanding. Waitress super nice too. The Siam Duck was awesome... fried dumplings and the soup were great too!

Love the Beef Pad Thai and fried rice. Always my go to and easy to order. Large portions that are delicious! Don't skip out on Siam, their food is great!

I came here for Saturday lunch. The interior has beautiful paintings, room dividers, and other Asian decor. There was one waitress attending to 4 tables (including ours). Even though we asked for refills many times, she only refilled our water once. My bf and I got the red curry with beef and the kao soi noodles. The red curry was disappointing. It didn't have much spices, was watery, and was saltier than most frozen TV dinner foods. I love putting sauce on my white rice, but didn't do that with this curry bc of how salty it was. Additionally, it seemed like the cook barely put coconut milk in it. There were a lot of pieces of beef, so that somewhat made up for the lack of flavor and texture in the curry. The kao soi was the redeeming factor. It was a soupy curry dish with chewy rice noodles the width of fettuccine, chicken, bean sprouts, scallions, cilantro, pickled mustard leaves, crunchy egg noodles, AND A LOT OF SPICE. I experienced tingling in my lips from eating this. The kao soi awakened the spicy, savory, sour (from the mustard leaves), and sweet parts of my tongue's tastebuds. I really enjoyed slurping the noodles. I ordered some slightly sweet thai tea mixed with condensed milk to wash down this heat. This is probably not a dish for people who aren't too adventurous or are not fond of spicy food. One complaint I have is that the waitress told me all food on the weekends was dinner price only after I had already told her our initial 3 orders. We wanted to get another dish but the dinner prices were kind of expensive. I wish the discrepancy in pricing was specified on the menu, when we walked in, or when we were seated. Overall, I like the decorations and really enjoyed the kao soi. However, had to give 3 stars bc of poor service, ambiguous pricing, and salty-watery red curry.

My husband and I order food from Siam Cuisine almost every Sunday. Everything I've ever tried has been delicious (my go-tos are Penang Curry, and my husband loves the Massaman Curry, and the pad se-ew!) The people are so kind and generous, the food is truly awesome. It's such a wonderful neighborhood Thai restaurant. I can't recommend it enough!

Ordered weekday lunch to go. The food was prepared very quickly, and by the time we arrive restaurant food was ready for us to pick up (less than 10 min). Ordered lunch combo Pad Thai and Massaman Curry, and Tom Yam Koon for the extra soup. Both of them came with soup and egg roll. Soup was in small container, and wrapped with plastic to prevent spill. We chose the spice level for the curry medium, it was just enough heat for us. Not only it was just spicy, it had very good taste into it. So we really enjoyed. Pad Thai had a lot of chicken!! One of must have Thai cuisine, and it's very close to what we have eaten in Thailand. The owner seems Thai, and all the food we have tried there really represent good Thai food. We really enjoyed.

Whole fish a bit pricey, but we thought to splurge and enjoy it. A disappointment! Not only a small Snapper, but overcooked and dried out. To go with it: the spicy eggplant. We asked for just eggplant, not a mixture as listed. Waitress was friendly; put it in as requested. What came out was not spicy, but affected by a whiff of stale cooking oil. Alas, a lesson learned. We were with friends, so I didn't complain about it and risk spoiling the atmosphere...

I'll be back to Siam for some more green curry... the pad thai.. not so much. My BF and I have our typical order: chicken green curry 5/5 spicy, chicken pad thai 2/5 spicy, and vegetable tom kha soup. We swung by this location to try some take out, and the interior is very cute! Nicely decorated space off White Bridge, and they had some tasty looking specials as well. My green curry was more like 4/5 spicy with some parts of it hot, others a 3/5 spice. But I LOVED the flavor, it tasted like they had a lot of chilis in it. The pad thai was just ok. It had no spice at all, along with not much flavor. Meh. The tom kha soup was excellent; the veggies were cooked perfectly and it was just right! I would give them a 3.5 stars but rounded down because they didn't have the spice right and the pad thai wasn't great. But I am looking forward to giving them another shot!

Been here three times, and I have had the Thai Basil Fried Rice and the Green curry each time. The Green curry is consistently good and flavorful with an even spice level. It had brocolli that was a little squishy, but they also added cabbage, which was a very good addition. It did not have the usual squash, but it had a pleasant, complex, creamy flavor. Having had many green curries from many thai restaurants, this place's green curry does it right. The thai basil fried rice with shrimp with their highest spice level, to my palate, is not very spicy. However, this restaurant does offer fish sauce which pulls together the flavor well. Compared to most nearby thai restaurants, I personally think it is the best. I wish they would make it spicier. I have a couple of thai restaurants left to try in Nashville, but from the ones tried so far, I think I would recommend this one the most.

Ordered 4 entrees for takeout. Once home, discovered they did not include one dinner, even though the sides for all 4 dinners were included. Had to drive five miles back to restaurant to get fourth dinnet. They offerrd no apologies for their own screw-up. Furthermore, one of the dinners included a steak that was so tough and overfone it could have passed as dried beef jerky! Would not recommend this place to anyone!

I've ordered take out from here twice and it's just not good. I've gotten the pad thai add shrimp or chicken and it's just not fresh... the noodles are always cut up really choppy to where you can't even swirl them. The veggies are mushy. I wanted to give them a better review because they are really nice but the food just isn't very good.

Haiku: Duck Curry Is too much perfect, crispy duck a problem? No. This place is v good.

We visited on a Sunday evening. There were about 4 other filled tables other than ours. There was someone ahead of us for a pickup order. There were people picking up and calling in orders through our whole visit. This was already a promising sign. We waited less than 5 minutes to be seated. There were three of us having dinner. Our water was never empty through the meal, our server was very attentive. I went with the Kang Ped (red curry) with chicken and my two friends got the duck curry. My dish had a nice amount of chicken, curry saucy coconut milk, bell pepper, mushrooms, broccoli, fresh basil leaves, bamboo shoots and carrots, it came with a fluffy side of white rice. I got it 3 out of 5 spicy and it was fantastic! My fiancé and our friend both ordered the duck curry, one got 4 out of 5 spicy and the other got 3 out of 4 spicy. The duck was crispy, sautéed in a red curry sauce with pineapples and tomato. The curry sauce wasn't as thick as mine but it was sooo good! It also came with the house soup, salad, and choice of dessert between ice cream or fried bananas. The soup was a clear broth with some chicken, potato, carrots and celery, was a good start to the meal. The salad had what seemed like a creamy thousand island dressing on it. They opted for the fried bananas which looked like knuckle sized mini egg rolls filled with bananas and deep fried topped with honey and sesame seeds. The red curry and pad Thai are usually good baseline indications of how the rest of the menu will taste. My red curry was delicious, I have to come back to try their pad Thai next. There looked like a lot of great options on their menu. They did not skimp on the portions. My fiancé and I shared my dish and one of the duck curries. We were both extremely satisfied with our meals and had enough for leftover lunch the next day. The curry warmed up really well. The parking lot is a little cramped and small. There are signs that say there's more parking in the back. My car is small though so we were fine. The driveway is very steep and they are easy to miss if you are not looking for the sign. For the amount of food we got, a good price, great service, and delicious food, Siam Cuisine gets a five for my first visit. Well done, y'all! We'll tell our friends and we will be back.

Consistently some of the best Thai food in town! I've dined in and had delivery from Siam Cuisine, and on each instance, the food is flavorful and delicious. We LOVE their larb - funky, pungent chicken with onion, cucumber and lettuce. The curries are all terrific,and the noodle dishes hit the spot! They aren't shy with heat and spice here, which suits me just fine, but if your palate is sensitive, I suggest asking them to dial down the warmth a bit to your liking. This restaurant is in an unassuming spot on White Bridge, but don't let the location dissuade you from giving it a go. It's terrific!

I had pad Thai from here yesterday and it was tasteless, I would compare it to eating water. I also ordered a dish for my friend and she was disappointed too. Needless to say, we had to throw it away because it was so awful. That's how throwing money in the trash looks like.

We love this restaurant for one specific dish that is the closest in flavor to what we discovered on our trip to Thailand a few years ago. Their Pad Ka Tiem (aka garlic chicken) is by far the best in Nashville. We've tried so many local versions and we keep coming back to this one. It's our favorite spot to grab a quick lunch and enjoy our favorite meal!

First time, not great but I'll be back. There must be something good on the menu. They were busy. Some of the yelp pictures look good. First things first, the parking lot is difficult in it's layout and capacity. This feature made me go hmmm... I was told that you can't order dinner portions at lunch. Really? It's as if they're not trying to make money. So enlarging the portion is not worth the extra charge? Takes too much time? I don't get it. The Tom Kha Gai soup always varies from restaurant to restaurant. This version was creamy but not sour enough even though it was a little spicy at the bottom. I can't recommend the dish I had. Everything was prepared separately and met for the first time on the plate. Any noodle dish should be finished in the sauce so that the noodle can absorb some of the sauce. Simple technique, massive difference. I also ordered medium heat and the dish was served plain, no spice at all. This business of trying to talk the gringo out of spice is tiresome. Everywhere I go, "Are you sure?" I get they don't want it returned but still. Maybe if you order native Thai they should warn you. I'll try again.

I went here the other night for takeaway. I ordered ahead through the Yelp app (which was easy and intuitive to use) and had the Lard Nar with tofu. I was afraid to order it at the "native Thai" spice level, so I got the next level down of heat called "very hot." Overall, I really liked the food. I can't say that they were the best noodles I have ever had, but they were pretty dang good. In terms of spice, I tend to gravitate toward hot foods so my opinion might be skewed, but to me the very hot did not seem all that spicy. It certainly had some kick to it, but not very much of one (maybe akin to one from a small child?). The next time I order from here I will probably go with the "native Thai" heat level and be sure to update this review if that turns out to be a bad choice. I can't really speak to the atmosphere for dining in, but it did seem nice/clean in the restaurant in the minute I was there to pick up my food. Overall, I can't say that there was anything about this place to differentiate from some of the other decent Thai places in the area, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I really like Lard Nar, and theirs was pretty good. In the future, when I get that hankering for spicy noodles, this is probably where I will go to get them.

I eat here often! The green curry is fabulous!! The service is friendly and fast and my children like the food too so that's win all the way around :-)

I've lived in nashville for most of 40 years. I've been going here since they opened and have been very supportive. I've had just about everything on the menu. I always tip 20% or greater. I've had diarrhea from this place twice. Bound to happen. No big deal. I have never once gotten the spice level I've asked for. Sometimes I want spice. Sometimes I don't. I ordered MILD basil with chicken today and for the 50th time, it's spicy enough to melt plastic. Never again, Siam.

I've gotten delivery from Siam Cuisine several times throughout the pandemic, and have always been extremely satisfied. Entrees and appetizers are both amazing, portions are perfect. The Pad Khing (Ginger) is probably my favorite, would definitely recommend it.

Authentic Thai food. The food is really tasty and flavor is great. Price were decent. Would recommend.

The best Pad Thai in Nashville. I love getting it to go after a long day at work. They're still offering this take out option during covid.

Really tasty Thai food and great service. I will most certainly return and sample something else but I wanted to put out a quick review to help people on the fence. It isn't the best Thai I have had but it is certainly up there, and worth a visit!

Great coconut soup at an even better price. I order once every week w sticky rice and very filling.

Stuffed chicken wings - A Massmun Curry - A+ Veggie Soup - A Thai Iced Coffee - A+ Have gotten delivery from DoorDash a couple times now and really diggiing this restaurant!

The Food is amazing and take out is always ready for pick up. I look forward to picking up takeout.

Don't order takeout if you're in a hurry. I got there when they said it would be ready and no one spoke to me. Then they insisted that I sit down. After ten minutes, they came out and asked me what I ordered -- they hadn't even started it yet. Then the food less than great. The pad Thai was really dry. Very disappointing. My previous experiences eating in the dining room a few years ago were much better.
