Service was friendly and it is a decent size space serving a lot of customers. All in all I had a great experience here and exceeded my expectations having a good Thai place in Helen.

My partner and I decided to try Tani Thai 02.20.2026 and stopped by around 6:30PM for dinner…read more First off, the interior seemed clean and well-kept. The ambiance was dark and intimate, which I appreciated -- it gave the space a cozy, relaxed vibe that felt nice for a dinner date. The music was low and soft, which worked well since most of the tables were talking pretty loudly. It didn't feel chaotic or overstimulating, and we were still able to have a comfortable conversation. Service was decent -- we were seated quickly and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Here's what we ordered: Tiger's Tears ($15) - 3/5 This was the dish I was most excited about. It's described as grilled beef with chili-lime seasoning, onions, scallions, and sweet peppers. Unfortunately, it fell short of expectations. The beef was noticeably tough, chewy, and a bit sinewy rather than tender and juicy. The chili-lime sauce was very sharp and aggressively acidic -- overwhelmingly sour to the point where it masked the savory, char-grilled flavor of the meat. It was supposed to be spicy, but as an Asian who regularly eats and enjoys spicy food, there was barely any heat at all. The dish looked vibrant and colorful, but flavor-wise it felt unbalanced and slightly one-dimensional. Basil Fried Rice with Chicken ($18) - 2.5/5 The menu labeled this as spicy as well, but again, there was zero kick. Not even a subtle warmth. It tasted like very standard, plain fried rice -- mildly seasoned, slightly oily, and lacking depth. The fresh Thai basil aroma wasn't very pronounced, and the overall flavor felt muted and underwhelming. The chicken was okay texture-wise, but the dish as a whole didn't stand out or justify the price point. It needed more heat, more fragrance, and more boldness to feel like true Thai basil fried rice. Coconut Mushroom Soup with Chicken ($5.50) - 2/5 This one was disappointing. When it first arrived, it was comforting and creamy with a light coconut aroma. Initially, it tasted balanced and mildly savory. However, as it sat and I alternated between dishes, the flavor became increasingly sour and slightly off-putting. The chicken was extremely dry, stringy, and overcooked, which made it difficult to enjoy. The broth lacked the rich, silky depth I was hoping for and ended up tasting thin, overly acidic, and somewhat flat. Thai Teas ($5.50 each) - 3.5/5 Honestly, these saved the night. Sweet, creamy, and refreshing -- exactly what you expect from a good Thai tea. Smooth, well-balanced, and flavorful. Water - 0/5 I took one sip and didn't touch it again. It tasted like straight tap water with a faint cleaning solution scent. Thankfully, we had the Thai Teas to rely on. Overall, the experience was okay but not memorable. The atmosphere and ambiance were pleasant, but the food didn't quite deliver -- especially considering how Thai cuisine is typically bold, aromatic, spicy, and layered. For us, the dishes leaned either too sour or too bland, without much balance in between. Given the prices, we were expecting more depth and stronger flavors. Not a terrible experience, but not one we'd rush back for either.

The larb salad is incredible (I get it with chicken), as well as the ginger salad, clear soup, tom yum, chicken satay skewers, beef noodle soup, basically everything. My dad swears by the pad see ew and my grandparents love the massaman and penang curries. I hadn't had much (if any) Thai food before trying Mama Ning's, but now I am hooked and honestly it's become probably my favorite overall cuisine in general! Whenever I visit I know I can trust it will be fresh and I can get something healthy but also incredibly tasty. Plus they use gluten-free soy sauce so it makes my life a lot easier aha.

I love Asian food and am a regular customer at Ruen Thai. When I heard there was a new option, I…read morejumped at the chance to try it and we ordered last night - Beef curry (5 stars) for me, Pad Thai with chicken for my DW and a small order of spring rolls. Total was an overpriced $42.80! The Pad Thai had an odd flavor that seemed to completely lack the tamarind characteristics I would expect. My DW is fairly picky, but she gave up less than half-way through. I was unable to enjoy it too. We put thst down partially to it being different to the Pad Thai we normally get. The 'curry' was the only offering (no choice of red, yellow, green, panang or mussaman, for example). As I love spicy food, I ordered a beef curry, five stars (the hottest available. There was little heat apart from a couple slices of jalapeno and I'm still looking for the curry flavor! The beef itself was cut thick and so chewy, I never processed a mouthful enough to swallow. Bottom line, anyone who knows Asian food should avoid this establishment -even the spring rolls had a funny taste. Your palette as well as your wallet will thank you. I want to add that I'm local and NOT in the Bronx, I'm local to Clarkesville! I also rarely post reviews, but when I do, I try to be as fair and honest as possible.
