Good Thai Food

by Goodcritic

Probably some of the best thai food in the immediate Atlanta area. Always good food and service. The best is the Lemon Grass Restaurant in Marietta, worth the drive. King and I is our default thai restaurant if we can't make it up to Marietta. Lol.

• Pros: Food,Service
• Cons: Very dated restaurant,surroundings

Good Sunday Thai Dinner-Entire Family

by atlcuisineguy

This little inexpensive Thai place in Ansley Square is a good family find. All the servers, and the owner, Tom-?, are very friendly. We all love the coconut soup. And the kids love the Basil Rolls. Any chicken dish is good, and the degree of hotness can be adjusted. And very food prices. Easy parking, no fees.

• Pros: Good Family Thai Restaurant, Good Prices

Great food...horrible, slow service

by filmcrit

We had reservations for 20 well in advance. Even though we had given the restaurant plenty of notice and they'd taken the time to put together a long table for us, they still only assigned us one server. It took almost one hour for one of our group to get her order and several other orders were incomplete. The ordeal to pay the check was the worst, despite the fact that we checked to see if split checks were allowed prior to ordering.

All in all, good food, slow to no service, raggedy surroundings. Go here for takeout.

• Pros: Tasty dishes
• Cons: Low quality service, depressing ambience

Best Homestyle Thai Food In Atlanta

by jaymaygm

After being a regular customer for almost twenty years, it is now time to tell everyone about this wonderful homestyle Thai jewel. Starting with the Tom Yum soup with shrimp, Pad Thai, Chicken Satay, Basil Rolls, all duck entrees, and curries. I've never eaten anything that has not been less than wonderful. Want it Thai hot? Just ask. Need fish sauce. ask and the wonderful friendly staff are at your beck and call. Tom, the owner, will make you feel more than welcome. Oh did I mention how inexpensive the prices are. White tablecloth Thai is good in Atlanta, but this homestyle everyday is the best. Hopefully another twenty years!

• Pros: Authentic Homestyle Thai Cuisine
• Cons: After Twenty Years, Could Use Interior Update

The Best Tai Food in Atlanta

by js0711

My sister and I go there at least once a week and the food is always exceptional. It is a family owned business and the owners are very personable and warm. My favorite dishes are the Tom Kha soup, Cashew chicken, Masaman Chicken and Curry.

Couldn't be better

by nativegeorgian

Excellent Thai food, the friendliest and most attentive service you'll find in a comfortable atmosphere. Great for dining in or taking out. In nearly 20 years of dining there, I've never had a bad meal or poor service. Also great for vegetarians. Can make most dishes with tofu if you ask. One of Atlanta's first Thai restaurants. Go and you'll see why they have the staying power.

• Pros: great food, great variety, great service

Friendly Thai spot keeps Midtown coming back with its low prices and fresh flavors.

The Scene
A longtime anchor of Ansley Square Shopping Center, King and I does a brisk takeout service and caters to neighborhood regulars with an inexpensive menu and attentive service. The stained acoustic ceiling tiles and wood paneling won't impress a date, but the Thai dolls scattered around the room brighten things up. The owner will remember you from your last visit.

The Food
Fresh basil and ginger permeate the Thai-Chinese standards, though most dishes are toned down to suit the sensitive American palate. Asian food lovers will notice the absence of traditional Thai fish sauce from most entrees, and even dishes with spicy warnings are relatively mild. The pad Thai, creamy Massaman curry and noodle dishes come in ample servings and are suffused with complex flavors. The seafood, however, tends to be rubbery and bland. Start with sweetly potent Thai iced tea or coffee, crispy bean-sprout-filled basil rolls or meaty lotus blossom dumplings. The refreshing tum kha kai soup with lemongrass and coconut milk pleases, but doesn't come in a hot pot as advertised.
