Lunch at Spoon
Peggy H.

My daughter lives in the area and recommended Spoon to us when we were visiting her and her family. We were so glad she did! The interior is cool and eclectic, and they played a wide variety of music, from jazz to Queen. Really nice, relaxing vibes. She told me to order the drunken noodles, Pad Kee Mao, and I'm so glad I followed her advice! Seriously, the best preparation of this dish I've ever had! I was nervous about the spice level, so I went with hot instead of Thai hot. ( There's another level above that, so I thought I'd be okay, but chickened out and chose plain hot.) It was pleasantly hot, but I'll try the more painful Thai hot next time. Noodles, veggies, minced chicken, sweet sauce . . . Perfection! We started with spring rolls but I thoughts they were too crispy, so I'll order dumplings next time. My husband had the basil chicken with minced chicken and he really enjoyed it. Our server was wonderful and the staff was friendly and welcoming. We will definitely come again! Highly recommend!

Cute vibes

Came around 8pm on a Friday and it wasn't busy, there were plenty of seats so we were seated immediately. The ambiance is nice and intimate, but you don't need to be super dressy. Great for an affordable date. Our server was nice and helped me decide what to order because I wanted something different. I ended up getting the Massanum Curry which was really tasty. I'm glad I ventured out to something new. It was a good portion too, I had leftovers. My husband got the lobster fried rice which was also good. We finished the night with the fried banana dessert and it was delicious. Parking: shared private lot behind restaurant, probably gets packed during peak dinner time.

Beef nam tok salad
Stephanie G.

Can't believe it's my first time here! You can tell it's a neighborhood joint since a lot of the customers were chatting up their employees like they've been going there for years. I was shocked to see they have a full bar as soon as you walk in! They had tons of takeout orders for Sunday night, while their dining room was pretty full. We ordered the beef nam tok to start, the veggie panang for me and tofu red curry for my husband. Food came pretty quick and we both really liked the salad. I do wish it was served with sticky rice, but I suppose we could have ordered it as a side. Not gonna lie but I was pretty underwhelmed with the curry. I think it was served in a bowl too big for the serving size. I only got medium heat but should have opted for hot, but instead asked for chili sauce (50 cent up charge btw). Our total bill was $50, which I thought was not cheap for the amount of food we got. I would come back though to try other items on their menu!

Tom Yum Shrimp Soup
D'Jillisser K.

Dined at Spoon tonight, and I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. As a table of one, my server was hospitable, however you could tell that they were short staff on the floor . I was so hungry that I started right away with the Tom Yum Soup, and for my entree, I had the Panang Curry with white rice. For an added treat, I ordered an iced Thai tea, which was both delicious and refreshing for the evening. Beyond the food, the ambiance here is quaint and intimate. There's also an outdoor patio and bar area if you prefer a specific seating style. The restaurant is located in a retail space with complimentary parking, which is a nice bonus!

3 Flavor Stir Fry
Candyce V.

I had a pleasant experience here after popping in for a quick lunch. I like to order a few things and sample them, so I went with the chicken satay and a side of roti bread, and the 3 flavor stir fry with chicken. Everything was well prepared and flavorful.

Crab Meat Fried Rice
Renee T.

Had a team dinner at Spoon tonight. We had a very pleasant experience. We were a larger party and they had our tables set up on our arrival. From the hostess to server, they were pleasant and attentive. We order several appetizers to include the chicken satay, fried spring rolls, roti (delicious) and wings. We ordered a variety of entrees: crabmeat fried rice (one of their most popular dishes) and added shrimp, shrimp pad thai, green curry, and penang. We enjoyed our drinks particularly the mango mojitos. Chill spot in East Atlanta.

Omg! I was craving a delicious yellow curry and i got exactly what i wanted... i ordered the massamun and got one of the best curry's i've ever eaten. It was sweet and savory, creamy and nutty. Better than what i was expecting. It was an elegant little place, slightly pricey but once again worth it! Defiantly recommend this place!

Pad Kee Mao Noodles with ground chicken
Maisha H.

I walked in at 8:46 PM thinking they were going to tell me that there kitchen was closed, but to my surprise they told me I had plenty of time. The food came out before I had a chance to finish signing my receipt. It was quick and fresh and delicious! This was not my first meal nor was it my last. I have patronized Spoon several times over the years. They are a community stable in the village. The only thing I will say is that with inflation, the portion seems small for the amount of money you're spending. $14 for some noodles +4 dollars for the protein seems like a lot. The noodles don't cost that much. Also, it just felt a little skimpy. Not as much basil, peppers or veggies in general. I've had pad kee mao other places that provided more volume in the dish. Like I said it's not my first time there and it won't be my last. It's still good. I just feel a little cheated. Taste - 4.5/5 Price - 2.5/5

Basil Stir Fry with chicken
Andrea F.

Casual Thai food with quaint outdoor dining area restaurant is located in East Atlanta. Free parking lot. Food was tasty, reasonably priced and fresh. We went close to closing and our service was somewhat mediocre, possibly due to closing.

Crabmeat Fried rice

My family and I tried Spoon Eastside for the first time today, on my mother's birthday. It's such a cute little spot. The ambiance and aesthetic is everything. Our server Diamond, is the best. She really took care of us! Gave us some really good recs. She is very personable, very sweet, and professional! We went for lunch, so there was plenty of parking and hardly any other guests. The food is fresh and flavorful. Will definitely return in near future! Thanks Diamond and your manager

Pad Zu Noodles
Shantal H.

This is my friend's favorite Thai restaurant on the Eastside, so she was eager to bring me here for dinner one evening. Hidden in a small business complex on Moreland, Spoon can easily be missed if you don't know it exists. We came on a Thursday, so thankfully, it wasn't busy. There was also plenty of parking in front of the various businesses. Upon walking in, we were greeted by a very friendly host. What made my initial impression even better, was our server. He was amazing. Energetic, funny, and offered great advice about food choices. We both shared the fried spring rolls as an appetizer. For my entree, I had the Chicken Pad Zu. Very fresh and good flavor. A little different than some of the other Thai dishes I've tried around the city. I definitely recommend giving Spoon a try if you're in the area.

Basil crab fried rice
Kaneka R.

Spoon, I like to call it an oldie but goodie! I've never been disappointed with my meal and the service is consistent. My go to dish is the basil fried rice Thai hot with shrimp added, on my recent visit I decided to switch it up and add crab meat and shrimp, it was $29. I personally feel like the Thai Hot here is much milder than other establishments so if you enjoy spicy you may want to get the Mama Hot level. I also enjoyed an order of shrimp in blanket $12, spring rolls, $6, and a lychee martini, $12. Everything was delicious and plates were cleaned. The martini was filled to the rim and served with a lychee.   The restaurant is located in the Ormewood Shopping Center and provides free parking. There is inside and outside dining, and a small bar inside. You can also place to go orders and the restaurant is currently adding 20% gratuity for dining in which I personally think is acceptable.

Ginger Stir Fry w/ Noodles & Fish...
Mitchellie V.

Thai Cx Wings served w/ Sweet & Sour dip on the side. It was lightly batteries so it was all Cx & I didn't use the dip so the flavor was tasteful. Pad Thai w/ extra egg & fish. I couldn't dive in like I usually do, but, the noodles were soft & the sauce wasn't overpowering. Service. Perfect & itwas nice that they posted the sign that the service charge was 20%z Ambiance. The lights need to be dimmed just a little to give it that mood.

Ask the Community - Spoon Eastside

Just left Spoon. We arrived at 9:33. The sign and website said they close at 10pm. But wr were told that the dining area was closed. Should we have been allowed to sit, order, and eat at the bar?

I don't think so, there is no way you'd be able to sit, order and eat in 30mins... or even an hour for that matter. Close at 10pm means the current guests should be able to order etc up until that time. But to come in and start an entire 2 hour or… Read more

Our server even gave extra rice to go upon request, which was thoughtful and made the experience even better. I ordered the drunken noodle with chicken. Again, chicken was a bit overcooked, but the dish was delicious, especially the fresh bell peppers throughout. Honestly wanted a bit more peppers because they were so good, but overall, good portions of each part of the dish. Service was great, and the ambiance was nice. Because it wasn't a lot of people there at the time, it felt intimate and romantic. Will return in the future. Thank you for an amazing time and great food!

For my entree I had the signature fried rice and as my protein, I added chicken. My first dish did come out cold but the manager came over and was very apologetic. It came out minutes later and was hot and delicious. I wish they'd asked how I wanted my egg prepared because I prefer over medium and it was put in as well done. No big deal. For dessert we chose the Mango Sorbet. It was ok. I wish it had a little more flavor but if it's house-made, I can see how it would vary in flavor with fresh mangoes. Overall, this was a solid choice and when I visit AtL, I'd be open to returning. There were a few items on the menu I would like to try.
