"Snap Thai Fish House is a design marvel. The crisp, bright space is filled with big windows, gold rod benches, and dangling shapes that look like a school of fish. But it’s also 4,600 square feet. So, even with patrons sprinkled about the room at lunch and dinner, the area can still feel massive. The menu isn’t quite as imposing, but that won’t stop the tempting roster of soups, starters, and sustainable catches from flooding your or your indecisive friend’s brain. When that happens, help them find their way by suggesting the shrimp and scallop pasta bursting with basil and bell peppers or a Chilean sea bass that pairs tremendously with Massaman curry." - demarco williams, nina reeder, juli horsford, jacinta howard
"Buckhead's Snap Thai Fish House works well for a quiet lunch on their breezy front courtyard or for a buzzy Happy Hour when you want to slurp oysters and a few glasses of wine. The stylish nautical-themed space is also big enough to host a private dining event if your bougie book club only meets at places that serve chilled lobster towers. Whatever reason brings you in the door, make sure your table includes a fish entree (like the sea bass) paired with one of their sauces (we love the green creamy curry). And if the tom yum lobster bisque is on the menu, order it. The creamy soup has a sweet, herby freshness that makes it feel light." - jacinta howard, juli horsford, nina reeder
"Seafood restaurants are generally good choices for date nights, but Buckhead's Snap Thai Fish House is our ace in the hole since the setting is as impressive as the food. The crisp, bright space is filled with big windows, gold rod benches, and dangling shapes that look like a school of fish. The coastal Thai menu isn't long and imposing, but that won’t stop the tempting roster of soups, starters, and sustainable catches from making you squirm in indecision. Just get the shrimp and scallop pasta bursting with basil and bell peppers or a chilean sea bass that pairs tremendously with massaman curry." - nina reeder, juli horsford
"Located in a development where parking validation costs are apportioned among tenants based on square footage, making the restaurant responsible for a share of expenses regardless of actual patronage; fees are recalculated annually each March, complicating budgeting, and third-party decisions (like reducing allotted free time from three to two hours) leave the business with little control over customer parking value." - Su-Jit Lin
"Snap Thai’s tasteful nautical theme is reason enough to to host a big celebratory dinner or a meet-the-parents date. But it’s also the kind of place where you have to choose your companions wisely. By that, we mean take folks who won’t condemn you for licking the last drop of green curry sauce off the plate. If you’re a seafood lover, the Buckhead restaurant has all the favorites—from a fragrant crab fried rice and tom yum lobster bisque to flaky cod in a ginger mushroom sauce. It’s the dishes, with layered flavors of lemongrass, coconut cream, and spices that really elevate this spot." - nina reeder, jacinta howard, juli horsford
