    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

    Excellent amazing yummy fresh and lunch special is a good deal !!!! We know Thai food and this is the closest to Thailand

    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!

    Thai Tuesday

    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!

    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.

    Came during lunch specials and the prices were fairly cheap! I would come back to try their other options as well. I liked the krab Rangoons and the appetizers that they had. The krab rangoon had a lot of filling which was good. For my entree, I ordered the chicken pad Thai.. and it was lacking some flavor. I'm not sure if it was the sauce.. but it wasn't for me. however, the worker was very friendly and checked up on us. The place was also very clean.

    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!

We ordered spicy edamame and crab wontons as appetizer. The edamame were tossed in the very delicious sauce. The crab wontons were the perfect crisp and the filling was also very very good. As my entree, I ordered salmon volcano served over steamed veggies and a side of white rice. It was sooo flavorful and I'm so happy I have leftovers that I will devour tomorrow. I also ordered the Thai iced coffee and it was one of the best iced coffees I've tried. After we finished our meals we decided on fried cheesecake with vanilla ice cream and strawberries for dessert. We left the plate clean! Highly recommend xx

Everything on the menu is delicious. You can never go wrong with the pineapple fried rice or the different sushi rolls.

The place is always clean and they do a great job at making sure everyone is comfortable.

First time I got green…read morecurry and my friend got either panang or massaman curry (I don't remember which, it was peanut-tasting to me), and a sushi roll. These were full portions, and too big for us in one sitting. I ordered medium, which tasted pretty mild in restaurant, but my leftovers the next day were spicy (and so delicious)! So if you're the type of person to bring half your meal home, I highly recommend you order one level down from your normal tolerance. The second time I went for lunch, and got the red curry. The menu said it came with miso soup or salad, and I asked for miso soup but the woman gestured up to the small salad bar. Turns out, that day was chicken soup, and I'm pretty happy about it because I don't think I would have ever thought to order chicken soup from a Thai restaurant. I had two bowls, and I would have gotten more if I wasn't trying to leave room for my entree. It didn't work out anyway; even the lunch portion was huge, so half came home. Unbelievable deal, I think with tax and tip (I think I tipped $4?) my total was still only $16 and change. The service is phenomenal, the restaurant is clean, and they have won my heart. I'll be back!

Service was…read morenot only great, the sushi chefs were so nice and I had a fun conversation about eating Horseshoe crabs which was one of the videos that was on the TV on the wall. I liked that it was busy but not too crowded. They do a great take out service and the menu is perfect for everything from the freshest sushi to the most creative Thai dishes. I ordered a BoGo Kirin Light (on Happy Hour) which was served very cold and refreshing. The Kanisu Roll was so fresh and a very pretty as well as healthy. The Chim Salad was the best. There is no lettuce but plenty of salmon and tuna with cucumber, avocado and little jalapeños rings. The seaweed Salad on top was plentiful and the dish itself was excellent. I asked for a little spicy mayo on the side to layer into the Nori paper to make little sushi tacos. I loved this dish and would definitely order it again. The casual conversation from the other person sitting by me and the guys behind the bar made for the perfect evening. This was my first visit here but I will dine here again to try some other menu items. Prices are very reasonable and so was the portion sizes. This is a great neighborhood sushi restaurant.

    My daughter loves this place. So much so that she bought me a gift certificate for Mother's Day…read more So, hubby and I tried it. We had the calamari appetizer. (Although it had a nice tempura coating, it was tough and tasteless.) We also had the tuna crispy rice sushi appetizer. It was good, though the block of rice could have been smaller because it overpowered the tuna. For our main entrees hubby had the sashimi combo. It came out in a dish too large for the number of pieces the order contained. But it was a nice presentation. Hubby said that overall the pieces of fish had no flavor and did not have that melt-in-your-mouth smoothness. I had my favorite Thai dish, pad see ew, thick rice noodles with pork and Asian broccoli. The noodles were cut in small bite-size pieces and were thick and meaty. The pork was ok but could have been a bit more tender. However, I enjoyed the medium level spiciness. Service was excellent. Dinner for two with two appetizers and two entrees, tax, and tip was $90.

It will look like it's reserved parking only, but it reads on the sign that floors 1 & 2 are for business parking. The restaurant itself was SO cute!

It felt like forever since the last time I had such good pho. We stayed for a few more beers on happy hour cause the vibes and music was really great!
