We ordered through UberEats. Delivery was fast and these portion sizes did not disappoint. Everything was tasty. No soy sauce was sent, so you may need to request it for to-go orders.

Service here is friendly and quick. The place is very open and gives a slight sports bar vibe with the TVs. I'm giving it 4 stars and not 5 because the items on the menu that were supposed to to be spicy had next to no spice in it (the tom yum noodle soup). I got the pad grapow which is a similar dish to what I had Thailand, but again, no spice. It was more sweet than anything. Kind of disappointing to me but others like it.

Potstickers
Amanda D.

Loved this sushi spot! Started off with a few apps. Out of the apps my least favorite was the crab Rangoon. The cheese on the inside had the consistency and color of Mac n Cheese and I did not see any crab whatsoever. Pot stickers were the star of the show. The sushi rolls were all amazing and fresh and the mango sticky rice was seriously the best I've ever had. Our server was super attentive and all of our food arrived super fast.

Went to dinner late on Monday evening and there were three of us. I've been here with my family several times and it is consistently good - both the service and the food. Entree portions are easily shareable as are appetizers. If you want solid Thai food with a nice ambiance, good food and good service, you should try this place. Felt a tiny rushed to finish our food so they could close but it wasn't bad.

Beef Pad Thai

This was our first time trying here. We walked right in with a pleasant greeting and were sat at a small table. They have an extensive menu and an IPad that shows pictures of all the sushi options which was really great to swipe through. We stuck with ordering Thai food because that was what I was craving! We loved the 3 items we picked, each tasted awesome! The yellow chicken curry was very flavorful and the pad Thai was perfect! The only bad thing was that they were out of mangoes so we couldn't get the mango sticky rice we will definitely be back!

Chicken & Shrimp Pad Thai

Smiley Thai & Sushi is one of those rare places that gets it right every single time. The food? Incredible. The service? Always warm and attentive. The ambiance? Beautiful and relaxing. Everything on the menu feels intentional and made with love. We had the Pad Thai and the crab curry and let me tell you...that crab curry lives rent-free in my mind. I had it once, thought about it for over a week, went back for it...and then went back again. It's that damn good. Also, do yourself a favor and get the mango sticky rice. Trust me. It's a little gem tucked between Hermitage and Mount Juliet, and I can't recommend it enough.

I went here with my wife and had a great meal. The service was quick and we went around Halloween and they had skeletons at a table near us so I would rate the ambiance highly.

House Salad with Ginger Dressing, and Miso Soup
Steve K.

Our gang of four enjoyed our Thai and Japanese lunch. Friendly, attentive service. Family restaurant. We ordered both Thai and Japanese entrees including Pad Thai with Rice Noodles and Tofu, and Shrimp Tempura Bento Box. Some entrees come with soup, salad, or soup and salad. Would order again. Also ordered the Miso Soup and House Salad with Ginger Dressing. Appetizing presentation. Some selection of draught beers. We asked that they raise the heat after we arrived soon after opening, and they did. By noon on a Tuesday, the restaurant was full. Open daily, lunch and dinner. A lunch special menu offered, Mon-Fri. Simple decor. Located in a nondescript strip mall adjacent to Mt Juliet Wine & Spirits. Private parking lot. Small Gripe: No beer list, no wine list, no drink list, and no price list.

Seaweed salad
Steve S.

We stopped in for lunch today but due to the lack of social distancing ordered take out instead. I had Yum Talay or seafood salad. It had shrimp, squid and mussels that were all large and delicious. Served on a bed of lettuce and greens. The dressing was mild (I asked for a 3 spice level) . Overall a great salad. My SO had Tom Kah soup that was a creamy coconut soup with chicken, mushrooms, onions and cilantro. It had a kick (also asked for a 3 spice level) wonderful soup. Her salad was the Larb Gai salad. Mild like mine, it had minced chicken rice, onion mint in a mild sauce .

Food was okay here, but the restaurant was small and tables were to close together. Service was good and waiter was very helpful.

One of my besties and I went to this restaurant for dinner. We went on a weekday night and had a…read morepretty easy time getting a table even though the place is small and didn't have a ton of tables. The service was quick, kind, and very helpful. When it comes to sushi I love raw salmon and am allergic to avocados so I ordered the Orange Blossom Roll and a Salmon Roll. The prices are super reasonable which made me want to order more things than I probably normally would. The food was so good that even though it's been a couple of weeks since I went to the restaurant for dinner, I'm still thinking about it. I will very likely be ordering more things next time! Also for those who are not sushi fans like I am, they have a huge menu with plenty of non-sushi foods too. I can't wait to go back! Also just as an added plus, they have plenty of free parking with their own lot right out front.

This is one of the rare times the Yelp reviews don't live up to my expectations. I'm giving 4 stars…read morebecause the staff was so friendly and kind, and I don't want to trash a small business. This is a no-frills, smaller restaurant inside a strip of stores in a questionable-looking area of town. As I parked the car, I thought twice about actually going in, but based on the Yelp reviews, I decided to give it a try. It was clean inside, and, as I mentioned, the service and staff were 5-star! My food was where it went wrong for me. I started with the summer rolls (the ones in rice paper); they serve sushi and Thai food here. I have been craving summer rolls; I love the freshness of the mint and herbs, combined with crunchy peanuts and peanut sauce. However, that fell short for me here. The peanut sauce was reddish and tasted more like ketchup, so that was a letdown. No little peanuts anywhere in the sauce or on the plate. It was jam-packed with iceberg lettuce, which you would typically put on a Taco, so it wasn't very fresh-tasting, and it contained the tiniest piece of shrimp I've ever seen inside. Following my gut, I decided not to order my usual sushi selection, which is always raw, unfried, and unsauced. However, I decided to play it safe, so I opted for a Mexican roll instead. I asked for no eel sauce, but I should have also specified that I wanted spicy mayo on the side. It covered my roll, and I had to use a napkin to remove what I could. This is usually a roll that is around $6 to $10, but for some reason, they were charging $14. They made the rolls bigger, but not by filling them with more shrimp, avocado, etc.; instead, they added more rice. This may be someone's cup of tea, but it wasn't mine, and I won't be back, but wish them the best!

BODHI Asian Street Eats, THE VERY BEST THAI FOOD…read more IN NASHVILLE! Above everything else the food is EXCELLENT!!! And there is a lot of "everything else" to talk about!!! From the moment I walked into this restaurant, BODHI Asian Street Eats, I felt calm! Claire greeted me with a welcoming smile and I chose the table to wait for my friend I was meeting for my birthday lunch. We looked over the menu and since this was our first time at BODHI Asian Street Eats, Claire (the ROCKSTAR) assisted us with descriptions, explanations and suggestions. I mentioned the food is excellent -- that is an understatement. The presentation is so sheik and inviting. The dishes they serve the food in are so unique and complimentary to the wonderful food. The eating utensils are Gold to compliment the dishes which compliments the stellar food! BODHI Asian Street Eats has done everything right!!! You won't be disappointed and you will be back for more, be it dining in or carry out. Their location is near the Airport, conveniently located on Lebanon Road between Mount Juliet and Hermitage in Old Hickory. Easy access with lots of parking... 14801 Lebanon Rd.
