Andrea M.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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...

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.

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.

Kathy Y.

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!

But it wasn't like that at all. I had never been before, even though I've passed it so many times. I finally decided, "Let me just try it." The cashier was really nice and explained how everything worked. I asked her what her favorite salad was, but instead of going with her recommendation, I trusted my instincts and built mine based on the ingredients that stood out to me. I ordered the Polynesian chili mango salad with mint and added grilled shrimp. I wasn't a huge fan of the shrimp, but the salad itself was so good that I still ate the whole thing. The flavors were layered and intentional. Not generic, not bland. I love when salads don't taste like an afterthought. What really impressed me was the hot sauce bar. That blew me. They had multiple hot sauces, and as someone who's basically a hot sauce connoisseur, I appreciate that because different hot sauces pair better with different foods. That detail alone elevated the experience. The space was big, clean, bright, and full of color. It felt fresh. Overall, I was genuinely impressed. I definitely want to go back and try the other salads.

Based on the reviews and pictures I saw I decided to give Three Buddies a try. Three Buddies was easy to find as it sits right on the main road. They have their own parking lot so there is ample parking so once I turned, I hopped into a park and we headed inside. Three Buddies has a simple decor as the design aesthetic is straightforward and leaves the focus on the restaurant name itself. The restaurant was very clean and had a diner style setup with ample seating. Once seated, the waitress approached us with a warm smile and cheerful greeting. She provided us with menus, took our drink order, and allowed us some time to review the menus in full. With a variation of halal items on the menu, Three Buddies had me wanting a little bit of everything. However, I decided to go with a classic approach and get the Chicken Sandwich (fried) with Onion Rings (both well done). Once our order was placed, it was back to the enjoyment of the ambiance as we engaged in our conversation. When our food arrived at the table, the visual presentation was extra enticing. The aroma was captivating and after saying grace, o was ready to eat. Chicken Sandwich: Meaty Perfectly Fried Well Seasoned Fresh Fixins Buttered Bun Crispy Outside - Moist Inside 10/10 Onion Rings: The BOMB Crunchy Tender Onion Well Seasoned Great Homemade Ranch Dip Well Seasoned Huge 10/10 Three Buddies was truly an amazing experience. This is my new hidden gem for date night. I will definitely be back again very soon. This place is low key and fitting for a good meal and relaxed environment. The price point of the food at Three Buddies is perfect as the portions are filling and the food is high quality. Good food. Good service. Good prices. It's an all around great place.

The tacos were American tacos with lots of lettuce and cheese. As far as sides go, I've had tater tots, hush puppies, onion rings, chole chickpea soup, and naan.

Hate to say it but this is why many southerners are lowkey pissed with the massive migration of northerners down here... I got the Standard (Bacon, Egg, Cheddar) on a rosemary salt bagel. While the bagel was tasty, the inside of the sandwich was not. Limp, soggy bacon. Cheap, McDonald's style egg patty. This sandwich should be $6 at most. The bagel itself was delicious and very well done -- this is clearly where they are putting in the effort and I have no qualms with it. But next time I'd just get the bagel by itself and skip paying more for what felt like not-so-great ingredients. I also got a chai latte with oat milk. Well made, but surely nothing spectacular. Holy cow... $6+ for that, too. Oat milk is an extra $.70. I don't know whether to be disgruntled with the owner or the local/federal taxes that has places charging like this LOL. It honestly just feels excessive, especially for the area it's in (love you Chamblee but I love you especially because you're affordable and not built around pretentiousness). Service was nice and it was clean when I went in. Perhaps the lunch sandwiches are more worth it? I am all here for spending a pretty penny on food but I am lost on this one.

The second I saw it, I didn't care about the price -- I knew I wanted it, so I planned us a date night. When we arrived, there was a birthday party going on, and I asked the maître d' if they were limiting seating because of the event. He didn't quite understand me, so my fiancée just asked for a table for two, and we were seated quickly. The setup was nice, although I'm personally not a fan of pre-set plates and glasses on tables (you never know how long they've been sitting there). Still, our server was fantastic -- attentive, helpful, and made the night smooth. We came for the famous Piraye Kebab Tray. At first, we were looking at the $165 option (Chef Tray + 1 Meze Board + Shepherd Salad + 4 Orders of Piraye Kebab with rice, all baked inside the dough). When we mentioned the price, our server kindly told us about the smaller 2-order option for $85 -- perfect! And let me tell you, Lord above, when I say I would do some things to eat this food again... words cannot describe how incredible it was. It has been three days since, and I'm still thinking about it. I even posted it on my stories, and over 10 people have messaged me asking about it. Chef Tray: Overflowing with juicy, flavorful meat, perfectly seasoned rice with chickpeas (I swear it was made with veal stock), and that roasted pepper and cheese-stuffed dough on top -- divine. Meze Board: The hummus was creamy and rich, paired perfectly with fresh pita. Shepherd Salad: Fresh, crisp, and balanced. My only small regret was that our server misunderstood when we asked for the dough crust to-go -- I realized the next day it wasn't packed up. Honestly though, I couldn't even be upset, because the food was just that good. For drinks and dessert: Turkish Coffee - small but strong, beautifully presented with a piece of Turkish delight on the side that was everything I had ever imagined a Turkish sweet to be: chewy, fragrant, and delicately sweet. Künefe - a dream come true! A warm, crunchy pastry with gooey melted cheese inside, topped with sweet syrup and pistachios. It was rich, nutty, and sweet without being overwhelming -- the perfect ending. Turkish Martini - decent, but not nearly as memorable as the food. All together, including tip, it was about $140. For the amount and quality of food, the attentive service, and the one-of-a-kind experience, it was absolutely worth every single cent. Piraye Kitchen isn't just dinner -- it's an experience. This is a must-try-before-you-die type of place. Oh, and happy birthday, Amy!
