For a gluten free diner, this Thai hits the spot!! They are so accommodating to gluten allergies and are willing to go above and beyond to be sure you don't miss out on favorites. Specifically, they were able to make the drunken noodles gluten free and I was oh so happy!!
Not only were the drunken noodles great, their Panang curry was the perfect balance of spice and a great value for what you get! -

We passes this place as we were going to Atlanta Botanical Garden and agreed on dinner there. It's a small shop, about 15-20 little tables. My boyfriend and I ordered nam tuk, shrimp basil fried rice, Tom yum goong, and papaya salad. As with all my reviews, we asked for everything to be Thai hot.
Papaya salad- very sweet for our taste and not hot at all. It wasn't bad but didn't fit our taste, 2/5.
Tom yum going- probably the BEST I've had in the Atlanta area. Only complaint is it comes in such a small bowl! But that won't deter me from ordering it next time. 5/5 it wasn't thai hot but it was spicy enough.
Shrimp basil fried rice- Wow! I really hate fried rice, or anything fried for that matter but the basil fried rice was really good! It has this smoky flavor that reminds me of it being cooked on a wooden fire. I really enjoyed it, lots of basil flavor too. 5/5
Lastly Nam Tuk- not spicy but it was good. Lots of the rice powder (yum) and the meat was actually tender and not tough. We enjoyed this. 5/5
Thai tea-overly sweet - would not order again
I had to add a lot of chili powder to our dishes but this is a good place if you can't eat spicy but people who come here and think you can handle Thai hot anywhere else, don't do it! Overall, good place for a small group and staff was friendly, restaurant was clean. I liked the taste of the majority of things there just wish there was more heat. -

Our server was attentive, efficient, and very helpful to our party of 6. He explained menu items to us that we weren't familiar with and recommended several!
I ordered the Pad Kee Mao. Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Man Noodles) were very tasty with Thai Spice level, but I prefer them to be a little saucier.
Appetizers we enjoyed: spring rolls, calamari, and the thai wings. I don't know how Thai chefs coat their calamari before frying, but Thai calamari is the best.
Recommend! -

Very good. Compared to our favorite Thai restaurant, this one is very close.
We ordered cheese rolls (delicious but a little greasy), Red Curry (phenomenal!), Larb salad (great, wish the cabbage was thicker for ease of use), Sesame Chicken (my least favorite). Overall an excellent option for this type of food! -

I was driving by mid day last week so stopped by for lunch. I had not been in some time and remember a sign, new management or new owner some months back so gave it a try.
I asked the waiter which of the lunch menu items was the best. He gave me 2 options, and I took the basil chicken which was one of his options.
I also ordered the NON FRIED rolls, the ones made from a vietnamese tapioca wrapper.
The rolls arrived all sliced up on a dish. Some call that poor mans sushi, as it looks like sushi. The lettuce was bitter and contents were minimal. In my opinion you should get the roll whole and then dip it into a sauce, usually peanut sauce. My guess is that they serve them this way to hide a less skilled roll maker in the kitchen. Its not easy to get this right. I know I have tried many times, with various degrees of success. When you cut off the ends it is easier to hide a less than perfect roll. It did have a sauce served with it but it was minimal and of poor quality.
The basil chicken was ok but no better than average at best. When the server left the food I was slow to notice that there was no spice options of any kind on any of the tables. In Thailand ALWAYS and here most Thai places have a one handle multi spice holder of some make that has sauces, vinegars, chilis etc you doctor up your dish with. Not here. Table are barren. I get up and eyeball the other tables, ah there is one only, in front of another diner. The waiter went and got it when I was able to catch his eye.
A plus here is the suggested tip guide at the bottom of the bill. I dont normally use those as most take the total of everything including tip nowdays and take percentage of all of it. It should be total before tax and that is what they use on theirs so thats one plus here. The one waiter also did a good job keeping up with everyone.
Be aware that there is a chalkboard with specials that go into the upper $20s range. The regular lunch menu items are nothing at all like those. Those dishes are basic, small and around $9.99 or so.
