    I came to Nan Thai for a date and I really loved all the dishes I tried!! For appetizers, we had the octopus lemongrass salad and toong tong, both of which I found super delicious. The toong tong are crispy dumplings, and they came paired with a sweet chili dipping sauce, and the octopus lemongrass salad was very refreshing, we chose a regular spicy level. I had the Khao Mok Ped duck leg dish, which I strongly recommend, it was very tasty, rich, and filling. The ambience was a nice, dark moody vibe, but with enough lighting to still read the menus. Our server was great, service was quick and she had a great cocktail recommendation for me, a gorgeous hibiscus vodka cocktail! I definitely would come back again, I absolutely loved every dish we had that night, 10/10!!

    Enjoyed dinner at Nan Thai in Buckhead. Located in the same complex as the St. Regis and Chops, the restaurant is to the right of the ovation building. They have a patio that was rented out for an event(note to self for future use) and more formal dining inside. We enjoyed the calamari, lobster soup, and chicken potstickers. Yum! They validated valet parking but not the parking lot.

    Panna cotta

    Came here with my husband a couple weeks ago. This is the old Chai Yo location - restaurant looks the same but menu is slightly different. Elegant atmosphere. I ordered the duck at the recommendation of the server, and it was perfection. I loved combining the duck meat with the fresh cucumber and rice - made for a super tasty and flavorful combination of different textures that I still think about weeks later. I'll definitely go back. My husband ordered a deconstructed green curry with sautéed veggies on the side and a papaya salad. He was very happy with the portions and the flavors. We also had the panna cotta dessert. Everything was fantastic - highly recommend!

    Came here for Mother's Day and was impressed by the food! I think this place is still relatively new so it was a bit on the emptier side. The service was great though and everything came out pretty quickly. It was decorated pretty nicely and the vibes were great. There's also parking and valet in the deck nearby

    Randomly decided to stop here for a quick bite to eat (and a cocktail or two) and I'm glad I did! The ambiance pulled me in right away. Even though it was still light outside, I loved the dark and intimate mood. And I felt that from the bar, where I sat during my visit. The staff was very friendly and helpful with recommendations and attentive service. And the food and drinks were flavorful and a treat for the senses.

    The service was a bit slow, the restaurant was not very busy, but the food came out after 45 minutes, our martinis and drinks came out after about 30 minutes. The staff were polite and the server was friendly, just wish we got our food sooner. The ambiance is nice, interior is very clean and pretty, and you can get parking validated. The food however was pretty good, the lobster soup was my favorite, and the laarb was good too. The papaya salad was kinda mid. I recommend the beef cheeks and the lobster soup!

    Sigh. I was so excited to try this place. It just didn't live up to the expectation. To be fair, I started with the Phuket All cocktail, which was all the hype. It was phenominal. After that, we slowly went downhill food wise. Nothing was bad, just underwhelming. Steamed shrimp and chicken dumplings were good, not great, but good. Lobster coconut soup, same thing. We have had better and were expecting more from a recipe that won on Beat Bobby Flay. Main dishes were disappointing. My pad Thai I just didn't like and my boyfriend's sea bass dish was a little bland. Our waitress was super nice and attentive and even gave me a free slice of cake for my birthday, which I appreciated a lot. Overall, the experience and ambiance of the restaurant was nice, food was just a little lackluster for the buck.

    Nice ambiance, with the flavors to match. So here are my honest ratings of the dishes that I enjoyed. Octopus salad 10/10, flavorful! Tom Kha Lobster Soup 6/10, soup tasted more like mushroom soup but lobster very tender. Chilean Sea Bass 10/10, perfectly cooked and sauce was lovely. Pad Thai 5/10, not great but not bad. noodles were not well separated or tender enough and too much egg. Lamb chops 9/10. great taste and sides to complement.

    We had dinings for the dinner for 6 people and the food and water were served after 30 mins we got there. The price of the cocktails weren't on the menu, and its price was different than I expected. I would have been satisfied if we got the table as other customers were staying and the service they provided was quick enough to enjoy our time there.

    Basil Rolls
    Chris S.

    Came by with a reservation for 6 on NYE around 9PM. Make sure you call because their online reservation system doesn't take large parties for some reason. We got the basil rolls to share. It said 6 pieces but it really meant 6 PIECES of one basil roll, rather than 6 basil rolls LOL. Tasted fine but it's pretty much just one (1) cut up Vietnamese spring roll for $10. The Chilean Seabass however was pretty good. The filet was very juicy and tender on a bed of fried rice. It's paired with bok choy and some of this fried stuff (not sure what it was but was crispy and tasty!) all with black pepper sauce. Pretty good service, as well.

    Amber G.

    I loved this place. I enjoyed the cocktail with basil and coconut milk? The Panama curry with Wagyu was excellent and is worth a trip back. I also enjoyed the sea bass entree - fish was cooked perfectly. I even liked the thai tea crème brûlée! You won't have a bad meal here.

    Toong Tong

    Delicious food, great service. The Toong Tong is a highlight. Will definitely be going back.

I hate to sound like but this is…read morea restaurant you'd like only if you've never ventured to NE ATL/BuHi/Norcross for the real bangers. It gives... tourist trap? I have never in my life had Americanized Thai food (or at least been conscience of it) but this tasted every bit of that. Not a single Thai national or descendant cooking or dining in here... I should have slid out the door upon noticing this but we were HONGRY and this place was walking distance. I appreciate the big portions to help alleviate the hunger, but the food going down wasn't even close to a real Thai experience. And the general ambience was definitely off. It's unclear whether this is a casual to-go spot or a sit-down spot or a bar. The service here was confusing. You have to order drinks separately from your food, for one. Secondly, it took a solid 10 minutes for a bartender to walk behind the bar and begrudgingly explain to me what they have available. I would have ordered more but her attitude made me close the tab after one beer. We didn't get served water until after we received our food, a solid 15-20 min after being in the restaurant. It generally felt like no one wanted to be there, and the staff were just moving independently to complete tasks instead of creating a dining experience *together*. There was not a smile from a single person I interacted with. I'd most likely not return purely because the dining experience is just plain out uncomfortable. On to the food. Mostly oil and noodles except for the papaya salad, which was... okay. Again, big portions. Nice heat. But just okay. The whole cherry tomatoes on top were a little weird and screamed laziness. The tofu kee mao was... okay. Same for the chicken pad thai. Lots of oil. This food made us feel pretty tired after eating it, which I've rarely experienced eating Thai cuisine. And they were very, very stingy with the protein. My husband counted 4-5 little slivers of chicken and hella noodles. The same was true for my tofu dish. I mean... it's tofu y'all. Cheap. But I can imagine they have to cut these corners because there were about 8 staff members running around in a small space with only a few customers in for happy hour. They do have HH deals on drinks depending on the day, but I found the drinks to be overpriced and not worth it. Especially the beer. And a $10 non-alcoholic cocktail is wild imo, especially for the scanty area this area is in. They are certainly milking the fact that they are in eyeshot of the Mercedes Benz stadium. The inside is beautiful and very ~trendy~ and honestly that tells me exactly where the focus is. I'd rate this a 2, but I'm adding a star for the spotless restrooms.

The fried rice was really good, especially with the sauce we requested on the side that kind of resembled yum yum sauce. It was absolutely delicious! Unfortunately, the drunken noodles weren't what I expected. They were very dry, and the noodles were sticking together, which made the dish difficult to enjoy. I decided to take it home and reheat it later in hopes that it would be better. Our meals also came with spring rolls and crab rolls, and both were delicious. Overall, despite the drunken noodles being a miss, I enjoyed my experience and would definitely come back to try some different dishes. The atmosphere is beautiful and cozy, making it a great spot for lunch or even a date night!

I can only give so much of a perspective on it but even though that is said I still had a good experience . The place itself is bigger than what you would see from the outside and it's decorated very well so it would be good for maybe an intimate night or a close friend night or a date night kind of situation. It's not something you would do for a sports bar kind of vibe . In the location you already know that you have to worry about paying for parking so just keep that in mind. The parking in the structure on the other side of the building isn't so bad so you could easily just park someplace else and walk across the bridge. It's not going to break the pocket lol . The bar was very clean and the service there was friendly and I have no complaints about that . Chili honey old fashioned - this was a really good and flavorful drink. I like the way they mixed the flavor profiles together and it really helps it out. It's not as spicy or as peppery as I would have liked but that's probably by design. You have more sweet than it does spicy because it's supposed to be an old-fashioned at the end of the day . That indoor and outdoor seating. So if it's a good day, you could at least sit outside on the patio area and a lot of that area is indoor and outdoor so you have plenty of options as far as that goes. The restaurant is really nice and very clean and it will definitely get my attention because I saw some food there that looked like I can eat lol. I got all positive vibes so I have no complaints.

It wasn't clear that parking is validated if you pay at one of the stalls using the QR code. The restaurant was fairly quiet and empty when we arrived, and we had a reservation. We were seated directly next to the kitchen where it was loud and noisy, which was an interesting choice since there were so many empty tables everywhere else. The food was just ok in my opinion. The best thing we ate was the appetizer, which was the crab curry vermicelli bites. It was delicious and flavorful. For main entrees, we ordered pad see ew and pad woon sen, both with chicken. Both were very underwhelming. The flavor profile just wasn't there in my opinion. We asked for three stars of spicy, and the pad woon sen came out with red tinted noodles and extra sauce on the side, which tasted like it was supposed to be hot sauce? It's hard to describe, but the noodles tasted superficially spicy if that makes sense. It tasted like they flavored it to look spicy, but it wasn't spicy in the traditional sense. There were no chili flakes or oils that were incorporated into the dish and it wasn't offered as a side, which is typically my experience at Thai restaurants. The portions were also relatively small for their price tags in my opinion. Two entrees and one appetizer (no drinks) ended up being in the $80s. Also for being an "upscale" Thai restaurant, more authentic touches would have been nice. For example, chopsticks weren't offered at the table when we were seated or when they brought our food out. We had to flag down our waiter and had to specifically request it, and we got disposable chopsticks. Again, not a huge deal, but in my experience at upscale Thai restaurants, they usually offer proper, reusable chopsticks along with other silverware. Overall, this place was a miss for me, given the flavors and the food for the cost.

The decor, especially the service, is very on point. All the servers were friendly and attentive. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with Thai cultural artifacts, and there's also a backdrop of umbrellas at the entrance that makes for a nice photo spot. The food, however, was a bit hit-or-miss for me. Most of the dishes were a little too heavily seasoned, too sweet, or too salty for my taste. My boyfriend enjoyed the food more than I did. My palate tends to lean toward lighter flavors. The food was good overall. Nothing to complain about, but nothing really stood out as amazing either. We had: - Strawberry Creamy Mocktail: a bit too syrupy for me. - Black Mussels: the mussels were a little dry and didn't taste very fresh. The dish was also too salty for my taste. - Fried Gyoza - Satay Chicken - Tiger Prawns & Scallops - Roti Bread: we ordered this as a side without curry. - Mango Sticky Rice for dessert. Overall, it's a nice place with really good service and beautiful decor. Although the food didn't quite work for my palate, it will probably suit people who enjoy stronger and more heavily seasoned flavors. I would still recommend giving it a try, especially for the atmosphere and excellent service.
