Easily the best Thai in town at the moment. Decor is just OK, service is authentically incomprehensible, but man-o-man - the food - the food is just fantastic. I have tried about 1/2 of the menu, and it is all good! (And remember, folks - most people go our to a restaurant for the FOOD. It's fine to note that it's a little hard to find (it's NOT), that the parking is around the corner (it IS), that many of the staff are Thai (so you may have to work a bit to understand them), and that the decor isn't stunning it is acceptably modernesque-generic, BUT, RATE IT FOR THE FOOD. And for goodness sake, if you 'don't like Thai food'. just don't rate it - it's a Thai restaurant! (I'm just sayin'...) Enough of the rant - this place is good - really good - and if you DO like authentic Thai, you WILL like this place - a lot...

  • Pros: Seriously - the best Thai food in Atlanta
  • Cons: Not the best location, decor, service (but those are OK!)

The thai iced tea is great, and the massaman curry is one of the best that I've had. Its close to Downtown and Midtown, but not on any main strip. So you have to know its there.

I drop by there occasionally for lunch, and its always pretty quick to pop in and right out.

They have great decor also, and its a great spot for dates.

What can I say except about this cute little place other than it is absolutely charming and has fan-thai-stic food.

I had the sweet and sour chicken with a little kick of spice and thoroughly enjoyed it. The cheese rolls were sublime and I had the best glass of unsweet (sorry, from the north here) iced tea I think I've ever had.

Our server was great, too.

Go - now.

  • Pros: Masaman Curry Chicken
  • Cons: Lunch gets crowded early

I like eating here. However, when I go there for lunch, the atmosphere is not quite right. The music is too loud and does not fit in with lunch time. Considering that many of the people who go there work at Georgia Tech, I think they would realize that people don't want to get into a trance when they go to lunch. For Thai food quality, I think it is above average but nothing too special.

I love this place. The thai food is spectacular; and they have some great vegetarian options. The food is consistent, and the specials are always creative. Try the thai tea martini; i drink it in like 5 seconds. The interior design is a superb asian-modern. I wish it was open later, but that is my issue with all Atlanta restaurants.

  • Pros: great food and atmosphere for value
  • Cons: closes to early

The very first time I had gone was for a GIRLS AFTERNOON, and I haven't stopped going since! Everyone I have turned on to it, has gone back! I would definitely reccommend you trying it at least once! Great place for an intimate date. The seating is close together but the atmosphere that it creates makes the experience all worth while. NO WAIT, JUST GREAT!!

  • Pros: ENTIRE EXPERIENCE

The food here is so delicious and fresh! Dishes are very unique, pefectly spiced, with lots of flavor. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed the veggie tempura (not too oily, with fresh veggies), all the vegetarian options (can order entrees with or without meat), and the blueberry spring rolls for dessert. These were divine! Served with coconut ice cream and mango sauce, it really topped off the meal. Our server was extremely friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was great. Nice place to impress a date.

  • Pros: Tasty food, vegetarian options, great service, nice atmosphere
  • Cons: Nothing!

Spoon is a good lunch spot in the Means Street area. I'm not a big fan of Thai, but the food is fresh and spicy! Service is decent, though not always attentive. The only drawbacks are - the seating, it's very tight and not comfortable - and the noise, it gets extremely loud.

This is a great place for a reasonably priced date. We were seated immediately around 6:30 on a wednesday. I highly recommend the tempura calamari, and the golden red snapper entree. Everything was served very hot, and service didn't slow down even when a group of about 15 came in (I happened to notice they all got served simulatneously, with steam rising from the bowls). So all in all the service and food are great, we will be returning!

  • Pros: Great value, great service, good place for a date
