The Scene – Located in the heart of the Highlands, this popular restaurant draws heavily from the local crowd of good-looking 20-somethings. Inside the large, simply decorated dining room, long and closely spaced tables create a noisy conviviality that's ideal for first or second dates, or get-togethers with friends. Service is fast-moving, but sometimes lacks personality. – – The Food – The fact that this mainstream Thai restaurant is always busy testifies more to its consistency and reasonable prices than to its authenticity or imagination. Favorites like Panang…

Mediocre at Best
by sandraga
Had dinner there last night, 3/21. Shrimp Coconut Soup: Coconut water, sugar, shrimp and fresh mushrooms in hot pot, mild flavor, not special, temp. warm and fire in hot pot died quickly. Chicken Satay: dry, tasted like processed chicken. Wing of Angel: Have you ever had batter-dipped chicken that was refried? Very oily, no flavor. Shu She Salmon: Dry, veggies fresh, but too much sauce. Shrimp Thai Noodle: Too much sugar. All in all, too much sugar, temp. on all dishes, except wings, warm not hot, very little flavor. Would have sent the wings back, but did not want to make a fuss since it was my friend's birthday. Great location. Service: waiter nice, but he did forgot our wings stating that HE thought it was "too much food." Not his decision to make! My friend had never had Thai and I wanted him to sample several different dishes and have enough to take for lunch next day. Needless to say, my friend did not. He was very polite, but did not finish all his food. Waiter was apologetic and I left $10.00 tip on $52.00 bill because he was the waiter, not the cook. Will not return! I have had Thai in LA and San Francisco and have had better from the small, stand-in-line, mom/pop restaurants than here.
Another atlanta regular sounding off......in a good
by taiaikens
Another Atlanta staple that I grew up. I'm always a fan, the food is fresh and really good flavor. I havent been in a while but I see that it hasnt lost it's touch from the other locals.
- Pros: Good Food, Good Service
- Cons: Parking.......as usual in VaHi
Best thai in ViHi

Went here last night for a first date and it was as good as I remember it being. Of course, you must start with the coconut chicken soup which is absolutely delicious and comes to your table in a big flaming bowl.
It's a little loud and crowded, but luckily we were able to get a table in the corner, so it was quite nice. I ordered the sweet and sour chicken (I know, I know, Michael E. can't you be a bit more adventurous than that?!?!) and enjoyed it very much.
There's a bit of a language barrier with some of the waiters, but I think it adds to the experience. We all figured out what we wanted after pointing to the menu.
This place has been around for a long time and I imagine it will keep going strong for many years. Great place to take out-of-town friends, too.
- Pros: food, service
- Cons: loud room
Great food!! Love it.

I have always received great service, drinks, and food here. The environment is relaxing and romantic. It's not too overdone with decoration and over-the-top design- it's simple with quality. Not too pricey. Also, it is in a good location so that you can visit a good bar or go for a nice walk afterwards. I keep coming back and have never brought someone who was dissatisfied.
- Pros: Food, service, drinks
- Cons: parking
