    Mango sticky rice
    Anthony G.

    Drove in for a visit to Miami and was getting hungry so looked up on the GPS for a Thai restaurant and it provided this so I drove directly to it. It's located in a strip mall and I was pleasantly surprised. The service was really good. Ordered Pad Gra Prow Medium spice and Panang Curry Dinner Combo and both were delicious and we received our orders really quickly as well after ordering them. For dessert we ordered mango sticky rice and it was so freaking delicious! I would suggest if anyone is in the area that please give this place a try it's well worth it.

    Love love love! Delicious Thai food, wonderful ambiance and superb service!! We had the spring's rolls which were made to perfection, nice golden crispy outside and delicious ingredients inside! We also had the shrimp red curry which was so tasty, was the best red curry I've had in a very long time. Also enjoyed the Tom Yum soup also excellent! We loved the warm and cozy ambiance and the mom & pop feeling unlike our previous go to Thai restaurant that had a cold and uninviting corporate America feel. Emerald Thai is our go-to Thai Food restaurant from now on!!!!

    Pad Thai Noodle

    Been on the hunt for good pad thai since i moved to the area 8 years ago and i finally found it! i ordered it medium spice it's extra veggies. the spice is just enough and the veggies were cooked to the right temp to still have a bit of a crunch. the noodles are also not overcooked and traveled surprisingly well. 10/10

    Very spicy fresh made sauce!! I love it

    This restaurant is truly a hidden jewel of Thai cuisine in Davie. It is so wonderful ! The food is super delicious, the ambiance is cozy and inviting and warm, family-friendly, laid back, mega clean. I want to especially express my appreciation for the fact that they always have fresh flowers at every table and in arrangements all over the restaurant. I have seen lilies, roses, orchids, and many other flowers grace their tables. This is a very nice and classy touch that does not go unnoticed! My husband and I have been here several times for dinner. We have tried the massaman and panang curries, the pineapple fried rice, the pad thai, the chicken larb salad (one of my favorite Thai dishes), the Tom kha gai soup. Every single item we've tried has been spectacular, tasty and beautifully presented. Their portion sizes are very generous for dinnertime. They have a set of spicy sauces which I really enjoy as well, some fresh made in house. The very best part of all in this restaurant, has been the service. Hong had been our server a few times and he is amazing!! Thank you very much Hong and keep up the great work making our dinner experiences so great! Give Hong a raise!

    This was some of the best Thai food I've ever had in Broward. I had not noticed this place before, in a little pocket of a plaza off State Road 84 and the highway, but a friend took me here, and it was amazing. We placed our order over the phone, and when we arrived, it was ready for us, we had the pad gra prow and green curry. Both of them had the full depth of flavor that I was looking for in a good Thai dish, and were cooked to perfection. The green curry was a bit sweet, creamy with the coconut milk texture, and had all of the right ingredients, peppers, bamboo shoots, chicken, and more. It went very well with the rice, in fact, I wish they would maybe give a bit more rice with it. The pad gra prow was so good, it tasted exactly like street food in Thailand. Perhaps it was because we picked it up to go and it continued to stay heating up in the boxes before we got to the house but the egg was a little overcooked, nevertheless it was still delicious. When we were picking up our order, we saw a picture of the mango sticky rice by the register and decided to add it to our order. It was ready in less than five minutes, and was some of the best I've ever had. In or out of Thailand. Cannot wait to make this a regular staple in my rotation. Thank you!

    The food here is absolutely amazing with flavors that dance on your tongue. I ordered via Uber Eats on a rainy day just to get another taste. Must try this place out!

    Red curry tofu
    Alayna J.

    Came here because it was close to our hotel and were wowed! The food was delicious. I got a tofu red curry which was comfortably spicy. My coworker got pad Thai and really liked it. Everything was fresh. The mango sticky rice wasn't as creamy/milky as what I'm used to from my local Thai but it was still very yummy! Our server was awesome. He was very attentive without being annoying. There weren't many people here and I hope that was just a fluke because this place deserves customers.

    We were attending an event at Nova and my daughter wanted sushi. We did a Yelp search and Sumo…read morecame up. I remembered coming here with a friend when they first opened and remembered liking it. We started with the takoyaki. It was absolutely delicious and my daughter said it was one of the best she's had. We also ordered spicy edamame. It was okay. My husband was happy with them. My daughter and I shared 3 rolls. Salmon skin (we added cream cheese), the Gamdam and the Orange dragon roll. We loved all 3. The Gamdam was my favorite. The different textures were just perfect. My husband had spicy drunken noodles with chicken. He said it was perfectly spicy. Service was very friendly. We got there about 45 minutes before closing and we never felt rushed. There were people who got there after us and they were also served at a nice pace. Can't wait to go back!

    A New Favorite in Davie -- Sumo Asian Kitchen Delivers Quality & Heart…read more I've been on the hunt for a new sushi spot, and Sumo Asian Kitchen in Davie absolutely blew me away. I'm not bougie, but I do know and appreciate high‑quality sushi -- and this place delivers it with heart. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by the sweetest couple who I can only assume are the owners. They were warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely joyful about making sure every customer has a great experience. That kind of hospitality is rare, and it set the tone for the whole meal. My husband ordered the Hawaiian Fried Rice with chicken, and it was packed with flavor -- perfectly cooked, generous portions, and beautifully presented. I went straight for the Sushi Nori Platter, which came with nine stunning pieces of sushi. Every single bite was fresh and delicious, but the standouts were the Madai (so delicate and clean) and the salmon belly, which was rich, buttery, and absolutely amazing. You can taste the quality in every piece. The food, the service, the atmosphere -- everything came together to create such a memorable meal. Sumo Asian Kitchen is officially our new go‑to sushi spot, and I'm already excited to come back. Highly recommend!

    I've never heard of this restaurant, nor did I read any reviews prior to ordering…read more I placed an order via Grubhub today, and I was a bit impressed, mainly for the flavors. Everything arrived within 40 min, still hot. I ordered a ramen broth, an order of tempura shrimp along with the spicy yaki udon. The udon was not spicy at all, but very delicious. Not sure why it's referred to as "spicy", there was not a single sight of red or green chilies. I would have loved for it to have a kick of spice, but nevertheless, still delicious. The appetizer shrimp a fail, they did feel a bit chewy/ rubbery, and dry. This was not my favorite. The hot ramen broth was soothing and on a cool day like today, well worth it. I wish that my order had arrived with chopsticks, or some type of utensils. None were provided, not even napkins. And I was a little disappointed that no sauces were provided, not even for the noodles. Often times some oriental places will provide siracha or some type of chill sauce. Perhaps this places does not offer those condiments? I wish that I could have given this a 4, even 5 star, but ordering from a food service one would hope the meal arrived with at least chopsticks, or some napkins. If I visit the restaurant in person, I'll be sure to update my review then.

    What a lovely restaurant. The plaza offers plenty of parking, the interior is very clean,…read moreorganized, and beautifully decorated. The staff are kind, courteous, helpful, and efficient. The menu offers a wide variety of food and drinks. I tried a poke bowl to go, and was amazed at the very large assortment of options for toppings as well as sauces. I am so grateful to have this place nearby! My poke bowl was delicious and filling, the portion size is generous. Will definitely return, I'd like to try their drinks as well. I will also recommend Sovereign to my friends and family.

    "'Total $h!t show" somehow still feels too generous…read more We came in for lunch today after seeing this place on my inKind app, genuinely excited to try something new. We were greeted promptly, which I'll give them credit for--but it felt less like hospitality and more like everyone was collectively participating in a low-energy dress rehearsal of what service might look like. We attempted to order at the kiosk, only to discover (after waiting, of course) that if you're paying with inKind, you must order with a cashier. This crucial detail is revealed only by a tiny sign on the kiosk itself--so naturally, you find out after committing to the wrong line. A simple sign at the entrance would solve this, but that would deprive future guests of the scavenger hunt experience. At the register, things really began to blossom. I mentioned using a birthday reward for free wok rice. This required a consultation with a manager, who advised entering my phone number--confidence was high, clarity was not. We proceeded. We then played a quick round of "Will we receive cups today?" (spoiler: almost no), followed by "Spot the Incorrect Charge" on the receipt. The wok rice was indeed charged. When I pointed it out, I was assured it had been deducted--despite basic math suggesting otherwise. At this point, I trusted my calculator more than the system. Next stop: the soda machine. Or rather, the soda crime scene. Drinks tasted... experimental. One nozzle was missing entirely, resulting in a surprise splash feature. It felt less like self-serve and more like a trust exercise. To her credit, the employee helping us was kind--clearly trying, but significantly undertrained. She offered a bottled drink as a solution, which I accepted as a peace treaty. Just as we sat down--hopeful, fragile, naive--the manager summoned me back to the register. I declined, citing a strong desire to finally eat food. They insisted. So back I went. Now a third employee entered the storyline, unaware of what was happening, asking me to recount the entire saga like I was submitting evidence in a trial. The manager stood nearby, contributing mainly vibes. At this point, I was informed that rewards cannot be used with inKind--information that would have been spectacularly useful before we attempted to use one, consulted a manager, and completed the transaction. The refund process itself was a masterpiece of confusion. At one point, I was asked if we had eaten the wok rice. We had not. Then someone else asked if we had eaten noodles. A different employee confidently stated that I was, in fact, currently eating it. I paused to consider whether I had entered an alternate reality. Eventually, refunds were issued. I returned to the table to eat what can only be described as a very modest $15 sushi roll. But the experience was not yet complete. An employee clearing a nearby table wiped toward us, launching food debris in our direction like a finale. At this stage, I genuinely scanned the room for hidden cameras. It felt less like dining and more like immersive theater. Throughout all of this, the manager appeared largely disengaged--occasionally present, frequently on her phone, and consistently uninvolved. Leadership was notably absent, which unfortunately explained everything else. We will not be returning. Not out of anger, but out of a deep respect for our own sanity.
