Went here with friends, and we all ordered different dishes to share. Most of the comments around the table was that their quality differed from before and some things tasted off. Starting with the most disappointing dish. Oh. The chicken and shrimp pad Thai was such a disappointment. I didn't mind the strange pinkish hue, but the flavor wasn't really there. There was even a slight sweetness. This sweetness didn't enhance the flavors at all. And there were two shrimps. Two. Maybe three since I'm giving them credit that one was hiding underneath the noodles somewhere. Some of the other dishes like the coffee pork or yen ta fo sounded intriguing but were also so so. The coffee pork didn't have strong flavors. I thought the meat itself would be more tender, but it wasn't. I truly didn't get teh yen ta fo. The assortment of tofu, fish ball, pork, squid were a random combination that didn't add to any sort of flavor. To me, they were random ingredients floating in the broth. I think I heard a comment that this version was different. The beef masaman and spicy crispy catfish weren't amazing nor bad. They were just average tasting. The beef curry was basically what it is: beef chunks, carrots, and potatoes. Nothing too unique to report. The catfish was indeed spicy, but I'm not too sure about the crispy part. These dishes were average imo. But certain things got a tad better. The pork from the Chinese broc crispy pork was great as it was super duper crispy, but the Chinese broccoli was very meh. Our friend commented that he has had better versions before and tastier variations in Thailand. The kao cluk kapi wasn't too bad. Though this was a rice dish, the pork belly and Thai sausage were really tasty. The red onion slices were actually delightful in adding some additional flavors and textures. And lastly the saving grace dish: The nam tok beef was really tart and flavorful. The boneless ribeye was so chewy and juicy. Combined with the sticky rice, it was wonderful. I think the nam tok beef was the only solid dish of all the things we ordered. Overall some of the dishes were a hit and some were a flop. Overall, the food was okay.

I felt like the quality has dipped. I've been here before and lately, I came with some friends and ordered a good amount of food but my wife was almost angry about the Pad Thai. She's a Pad Thai nut. It was almost too sour and the color was off. The beef massam curry was the best. I a fan of most thai curries in general. The fried catfish and coffee pork were good also. Everything else was good but didn't really stand out for me. I think we paid $32 per person after splitting the bill. 9 dishes and 7 people so the price was decent. We were all stuffed. At least the decor is pretty and the service is great. Would I come here again? Nah. I belive Tom Puk Puk and Bangkok Street food are better options.

Fresh Basil Rolls
Sam H.

Last night in town, on business and I decided to order delivery (UBER Eats), so I could get some rest before heading to Atlanta Airport and face the long lines. I opted for some appetizers: Squid (Calamari), Fresh Spring Rolls & Chicken Satay. Everything did arrive hot and the sauces that accompanied them was good (seasoned & cooked well). I would definitely order from them again or go to their actual restaurant.

The food was reasonably priced with extensive menu. The flavors were good but a bit on the salty side. The interior was nice, clean, there's a large covered patio. They also have a full bar. Our server was very welcoming ,very friendly.

Additional Pad Thai sauce
Andy X.

TLDR: Pad Thai was really lacking in flavor and drunken noodle was too salty Used to really like this place but I feel like it's never been as good as the first time I went. The pad thai was really pale and had only a bit of wet sauce at the bottom. At first it just tasted like the noodles itself and a slightly sour(?) taste. I asked for some more sauce and the server was pretty nice about bringing me a small bowl of sauce. It helped a bit but not enough. The drunken noodle here is usually pretty good but today was overly salty. Pretty disappointing to say but I'm not sure if I'll come back for a while.

Chinese Broccoli with Crispy Pork
Caroline K.

Finally got around to checking this place out. They are kicking out some solid food with decent spice levels. Plus sides-the place is cute and well lit and the older gentleman we had as our server was super nice. The AC wasn't set at a comfortable temp and because of windows and the summer heat it was a little toasty...BUT it would be hotter if we were at a hawker stall on the street so on to the food! Chinese broccoli was a little under cooked at the stalk and over cooked at the leaf-pork was super tender and flavorful...and the brothy sauce was salty and light-had the stalks cooked longer and the leaves been tossed in later it would have been a perfect dish...didn't stop us from eating it mind you, but it's something to note. Basil rolls were standard, well made and all the ingredients were crispy, chilled and fresh-zero complaints. The dumplings were house made, but needed some seasoning within the meat mixture-they were pretty bland and the bottoms of them got soggy from being in the liquid at the bottom of the bowl. I wouldn't get them again-but A+ for the effort of making them in-house! Chicken Larb was perfect...I really appreciated the fact that it was minced chicken and not ground chicken. There is a difference in texture and the way the sauce coats the chicken that I can tell the difference in. The sauce was spicy and umami and all the veggies were right at the balance of being crisp but tender from being in the sauce-it's a balance and they got it this time. Isaan Sausage was good, nice ratio of fat to meat, little bit of heat and wasn't dried out. Sometimes the sausage has a tendency to be dry and dense even with all the fat...but this variety was nicely done. Spicy beef was slightly tough after it sat and came to room temp. We still devoured it, but it required some hearty chewing. Other than that little set back, the rest of the dish was delish. Nice heat, umami was there with a hint of sweetness on the front end. Veggies were crisp but tender and we love purple(red) onions on anything. We enjoyed our meal and might find our way back in the future.

I was very very craving Thai food and Thai taste. Srithai never disappointed me. Some of Thai street food you can find from here. Good service by Amy, she was very enthusiastic with her service and smiled all the time.

Green Curry with tofu
Lauren J.

My recent visit was lovely and quiet. Going mid-week during the afternoon can guarantee a quiet lunch peaceful lunch. The green curry was very flavorful with a hint of spice. The crab fried was tasty, seasoned well. I loved the perfect crunch on the shrimp cake, it paired well with the sauce provided. I would visit again to try a different dish and drinks.

Surina Noodles @tiffhuangry
Tiff H.

THAI-ME TO BE HONEST | Surina Thai was just ok. After the previous restaurant Chom Chom, shut down, Surina took over - maybe because I loved Chom Chom, I was expecting so much more from Surina Thai. We started with some Thai Milk Tea since I was in desperate need of caffeine. We were a group of 4 so we decided to try quite a few dishes. Our favorite was the drunken fried rice, which was flavorful and hearty. Everything else we tried was pretty mid, including the Thai Fried Chicken, the Larb Chicken, the Papaya Salad, the Pot Stickers with Red Curry, the Surina Noodles, and the Hainan Chicken Thai Style. I think maybe my expectations were just too high for food that was mediocre, based on fellow Yelp reviews and ATL Asian Eats shoutouts. I may give them another chance one day, but will probably avoid the dishes I've already tried...

Kao Moo Dang
Elizabeth J.

I was happy to finally visit the restaurant after driving past it every day on my way home from work. There were only a few diners when I arrived and I was allowed to choose my table. In the warmer months there is an outdoor patio that must be lovely but tonight was cold and I sat indoors by the window. I started with hot jasmine tea which was light and comforting. There is a full bar and a large cocktail menu, but I preferred warm drinks this time. I ordered Kao Moo Dang from the house specialty menu and it was delicious. Pork three ways: fried pork belly, pork sausage, and roasted sliced pork with sweet gravy. There was also a boiled egg and sliced cucumber, and a dish of jalapeno soy sauce, all over white rice. I enjoyed every bite, the flavors and textures were great. Then I was offered dessert: either crème brûlée or mango sticky rice. Well, who wouldn't have the mango sticky rice? It was fantastic. The rice was warm and creamy, the mango soft, sweet, and juicy. Ah! I am glad I stopped for dinner. It certainly was the highlight of my day.

Really good Thai food! I came with a group of friends on a Friday night, and we were seated immediately. We tried a couple of different dishes, and they were all really good. I really liked the pad see ew and pork over rice, but everything was honestly so good. The mango sticky rice was also really delicious, especially the mangos. I would definitely come back for more Thai food here!

Chicken Pad See U and Surina Noodles
Michelle H.

Surina Thai is located on the corner of Buford Highway, so it could be easy to miss while driving, but it is a solid casual spot for Thai food. The inside of the restaurant is nicely decorated with chandeliers, and the staff are friendly and the service is fast. I ordered the Chicken Pad See U and while it tasted good, I felt like the sauce was a little too sweet. My friend and I also split the Crab Angels which were pretty tasty and it also came with a yummy sweet chili sauce. The portion sizes were pretty large as well!

Chicken Larb Kai and Moo Salad
Corinne C.

I want to gatekeep this spot but I can't! It's too good. Never had a bad meal here and I've always ordered DoorDash which is really saying something. I always get the chicken larb, fish cake, green curry with chicken or beef. Glass noodle salad is also yummy. My only :( is that they don't include Thai coffee on DoorDash! Haha. That's not a real criticism though. No notes!!!

Chong Qing Hot Pot - Crispy pork hot pot

They did not skimp on the protein, the bottom of the dish is veggies but I don't mind because I love vegetables and it's still very filling. Food came out pretty quick and the workers were courteous. A great place to get a cheap and tasty meal.

First time trying Chong Qing Hot Pot for lunch, located inside Chinatown Market, and walking in…read morehonestly felt like stepping straight into China. The whole setup is like a mini food hall with several authentic Chinese spots to choose from--but Chong Qing is where I landed. I ordered the crispy chicken with garlic sauce and swapped the white rice for a side of house lo mein (yes, it's an upcharge, but worth it). Everything came out on real dishes--not to-go boxes--which I loved. You order and pay at the counter, grab a seat, and they bring the food out to you. Now let's talk about the food... DELICIOUS. The spice level was just right--flavorful with a nice kick, but not overpowering. If you like it hotter, you can definitely add more heat, but I was perfectly satisfied as is. The lo mein was really good too--veggies were fresh with a nice crisp (those onions and carrots were hitting!), and everything tasted well-balanced. Only small note: I wish there was a little more meat in the dish, but it didn't take away from the overall experience. And let me say this--the portion size is VERY generous. I ate until I was full and still had just as much left to take home, which is always a win in my book. All in all, I'll definitely be back to try more. If you're in Chinatown Market and not sure what to pick, Chong Qing Hot Pot is a solid choice. 4/5 stars for me!

The Garlic Bone Marrow Noodle Soup was rich and comforting, and the Herbal Spare Ribs had a really nice, well-balanced herbal taste.

It was busy inside, but our party of 10 was promptly seated, though we were a little squished into a circular table. I didn't remember this last time, but instead of telling a server what you want, you mark it down on a paper menu and hand it to the server. This time I got the Grandma's BBQ Pork Noodles and the Salted Egg Yolk Shrimp Garlic Noodle. I was really excited to try both since they both sounded so good. Ultimately the Grandma's BBQ Pork Noodle was a little underwhelming - the noodles themselves weren't very flavorful, and the BBQ pork was on the drier side. The pork did have decent flavor, and all the toppings/side items (wontons, fried egg, bok choy) were great, but all in all fell a little short of my hopes. The Salted Egg Yolk Garlic Noodles had better flavor, but I could've used even more garlic and butter. The shrimp definitely carried the salted egg yolk flavor, but the fried batter was a bit soggy/soft in my opinion. I wished it was crisper. Service was a tad slow, but perhaps they're understaffed and/or it was busy that night. I do love the menu concept of positioning it like a magazine catalog - it makes for a fun experience instead of just words on paper

New Lan Zhou Noodle is one of the restaurants in the China Town food court. It's pretty popular due to their freshly made daily pulled noodles. Pre-pandemic, you used to be able to see them do it behind a glass screen. Now, you cannot see the back kitchen. Hubby and I ordered a noodle dish each (him was Seafood and mines were Short Ribs) along with their soup dumplings (that they're known for) and Twisted Cruellers. Food took very long to make, but it's understandeable. Bowls were very big and full. Meats looks good, but the white broth did not look good at all. We took a spoonful of broth to start off with without adding any condiments and OMG...no flavor at all! We were thoroughly disappointed. The meats part were good and tender (though again, no flavor), but most disappointing was that even with condiments, the broth was bland. We kept on saying to each other that we will not order from here again. The noodles were just okay. Nothing earth shattering about it. Twisted cruellers tasted like it was just heated from a frozen one. I didn't get to taste the soup dumplings because we were running late for appt since the foods took so long and had to pack it to-go. I can't really comment on that. I will not order from here again and would like to try the surrounding stalls around it.

Vegetable spring rolls, yes, but I was really feeling like the takeout classic that seems like it should/would be standard on any Chinese menu. Instead, I got the Shanghai Soup Dumpling which was alright but comes nowhere close to Lhanzou Ramen's soup dumplings. The orders of Chicken Lo Mein and Sizzling Plate Beef were also fine, but severely lacking meat and consisting of mostly vegetables/filler. We placed the order for delivery through Door Dash so can't comment on the location itself.

The wontons paper is quite thin and soft- not usually how I like it but that's up to preference. The restaurant def has a large variety of foods which is nice. I don't think any other restaurant at Chinatown Market makes them? It's one of the bigger stalls here too. Service takes a while; I think I've waited 15-20+ min for just wontons. If you're here for a while, I think you should give the menu a try. Their main dishes look reasonably priced too. The older Chinese man who looks to run everything was super nice and kind, I saw him training a cashier.
