“The soups are absolutely addictive.”
“If you want a nice dinner, presented well, that is worth every penny of their slighly above average pricing, this is the place for you.”
“It has my vote for best service in Atlanta.”
“The food is spicy, tangy, perfect, beautifully presented and not at all overpriced.”
Went for lunch. Food was good but expensive. The waiter took our order without writing anything down. He returned a minute later to ask our order again. When the food was brought, two of the orders were correct but placed in front of the wrong guest, and one order (mine) was something completely different all together. So, my suggestion to them would be to invest in a pencil and pad.
Well Kept Tucker Secret... Super Place. I drive out from town just to eat here. The service is impecable.
High-end Thai, steeped in class, is like a visit to Hotel Bangkok..
The Scene
The black-and-white combo used on tablecloths and chairs is reiterated in classy framed photos and faux flower arrangements, creating a high-end hotel vibe in an unlikely strip-mall setting. The earliest arrival on Atlanta's fine-dining Thai scene, the restaurant wins with fancy presentations and immaculate table service.
The Food
Exotic dishes, like sauteed escargots with Asian basil and black soy broth. The soft-shelled crab with tamarind-brown butter sauce looks promising, but a bland, crunchy exterior yields an overcooked interior. Barbecued minced shrimp skewered on a hunky stick of sugarcane and a side of sweet and spicy chili sauce makes a much better appetizer. Entrees are served with haute-cuisine temperament. Best bets include the roasted duck breast layered with plum sauce atop a mashed taro concoction and grilled filet mignon over a noodle cake in an Indonesian curry.
Don't miss this!. My girfriends and I have been eating here for about 2 years now. The food is spicy, tangy, perfect, beautifully presented and not at all overpriced. Not once have I been disappointed. It has my vote for best service in Atlanta. Northlake Thai is never full, because no one has discovered it yet! Don't let the fact that its in a strip mall dissuade you. You'll be SO glad you went. If Tamarind is too crowded or you don't want to deal with Midtown traffic...this is IT!
Elegant presentation.
There aren't very many great reaturants in the Tucker area that I know of, but this is definitely one.
Each of the appetizers is equisite and wonderfully presented. The soups are absolutely addictive.
If you want a nice dinner, presented well, that is worth every penny of their slighly above average pricing, this is the place for you.
