This place is not what I expected. There was another Asian restaurant that had poke bowls which is…read morewhat we wanted and was expecting. We decided to stay and give it a try as they offered pho too and who doesn't love a delicious bowl of pho (yes! In 100 degrees weather). The place is nothing fancy but it has the essentials. They do need to update the bathrooms asap. They smell funky and the sink feels like it could come on you at any moment. The place it's small with about 6 tables of 4 chairs each. The decor is plain and simple but decently clean. The parking is very tricky but it has access to the hotel and Taco Bell's parking if I remember correctly. The parking does wrap around the back to the front parking. The shopping center has other options for food as well like Mexican and gyros. It also has other stores with other services and products like a discount tobacco and martial arts club. The food is decent. We ordered we ordered their regular tuna roll, one of their specialty rolls and their beef pho. The sushi really needs more practice and better fish honestly. The tuna has too much hard parts and it was very hard to chew at some pieces to the point of having to gratuitously taking out of your mouth and put it in a napkin as you could not chew it up to swallow. The phone on the other hand was their Hail Mary. It was very good. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. There wasn't anyone before we came in so we had free range to choose any table we wanted. The service was fast. I'm not sure about the auxin but definitely pho is good and it's nice to have a good pho place near for this winter. Come check it out!!! Ps: no pictures of the pho because well, it was very good ...

I ordered a rare steak and meatball phó, and some Thai fried Eggrolls. The fried eggrolls were decent. The phó had a dark broth color, which in my mind tells me it's a bouillon from a glass jar with hot water. The noodles and meat were cooked great. The broth was something to be desired. I enjoy a fatty, clear beef broth. I was not super impressed with the sriracha. Adding another brand to the sriracha bottle trying to fool customers is not a good practice. It makes the phó taste awful. I can't speak for other pho restaurants in the area, but this was so-so for me.

Our former town had a…read morelarge population of Thai, Laotian, and Cambodians so there were some pretty damn good places to get Thai food. This place easily ranks up their with the restaurants we used to frequent in CA. Today we had the Red Curry chicken extra hot, the Chicken Jalapeno extra hot and a Chicken Teriyaki Bento Box. Every bite was very fresh and loaded with delicious flavors. Whoever they have as the chef(s) is doing a helluva a good job! Service was really good to and the ambience is where you can easily sit across from someone at your table and carry on a conversation without being drowned out by the TV's or loud noises. I'd highly recommend this place, the food is exceptionally good.

I ordered spring rolls, which were fried. Although they confirmed they were fresh rolls. No biggy, still tasty. Also ordered Thai samurai fried rice and red curry chicken. Very tasty. Especially the red curry was super flavorful. Full of Rich flavor and. Loads of veggies and meat. A 5 stars for that dish. Definitely worth it's money. I highly recommend this place if you are a Thai fan. Did not try any of the sushi or other Japanese dishes

If you walk into a restaurant at 7pm on a Wednesday night and the place is fully packed and there…read moreare people waiting behind you to be sat, you KNOW you made the right decision to go there. We were greeted nicely by the hostess and waited roughly 5 minutes for a table to open up. A family of five came in right after us and decided to sit at the bar to eat. I knew in my heart that this was the best place to go to for my husband's birthday dinner. We sat on some barstools while we waited, discussing the hockey game playing on the tv behind the bar. I loved the low ambient lighting that spread across the ceiling. Our waitress was nice but she never gave us her name so I unfortunately can't shout her out. She gave us recommendations so I ended up taking one of hers. Now, if you have read my Thai restaurant reviews, you know by now that I judge a Thai restaurant by ordering their Pad Thai the first visit, however, I broke that rule because I just KNEW this place was going to be good. We ordered the Tom Kha soup with chicken, Pad Kee Mao with chicken, I ordered the Khao Soi Gai (it comes with chicken, no substitutions), and one Thai iced tea. You guys. When the Tom Kha soup touched my lips, I was SO excited to get the main course! It was made PERFECTLY. I haven't had true Tom Kha since probably when I lived in California over a decade ago. The Thai tea was strong and delicious, exactly how it should be made. The Khao Soi Gai...that first sip of the curry broth nearly made me go Meg Ryan-mode in the restaurant. If you know, you know. "I'll have what she's having!" Our waitress recommended this dish and I'm so glad I was adventurous and tried something different outside of my "I'll judge you based off of your Pad Thai" attitude. It was perfect and when I say perfect, I didn't even add lime juice to it because I didn't want to mess anything up with the flavor profile. Sure, lime could have added another element to the dish but when I say it was perfect the way it was, it's true. The night at Smiley would have ended perfectly if it weren't for the miserable couple who sat beside us discussing how unhappy they were in their marriage and decided to accept the waitstaff into their broken marriage by being completely rude. But the staff remained professional and kind through it all and I give them HUGE props for that because I was a moment away from telling that wretched couple off. In short, the staff here are wonderful, and the food is memorable, delectable, delicious, perfect...it's HEAVEN. We will DEFINITELY be back to try other menu items!

We went our first time years ago and thought everything was VERY good, fresh, well prepared, and thoroughly enjoyed our meal/experience. The only thing that stopped us from going back regularly was the price - even for years ago, I remember us dropping over $100 that night. This last time we stopped in - just a week or two ago - after craving Thai food, and we left a bit underwhelmed. The service was still nice and friendly - offering suggestions and making recommendations, but when the food came out - it was just... meh? Walking out with a $65 tab (we ordered less food and no drinks this time), and still ended up taking some home - so they do have good portion sizes, we felt like everything was freshly prepared, but the execution just wasn't there for us this time. The flavors didn't pop, nothing was exciting to eat, and it was just kinda some ho-hum food. The absolute best thing we had that night was the appetizer of the chili sauced-edamame. That was stellar, and I'd have ordered a tub of that chili sauce to take home and slather over everything, if I could. Other than that - there wasn't a single main dish we were excited to eat our leftovers from nor would we go out of our way to come back for. Overall, not a bad experience, just another meal...

Public Service Announcement -- They aren't closing, but they are moving to Donelson in June 2026. I didn't know until today when we stopped in for lunch. They will be changing the name to Asian Cajun. I will be going to the new spot after they get settled in. That being said I'm going to go ahead and do this review as it's still going to be the same food and owners when they move. This is an Asian/LA seafood fusion restaurant. They serve Thai Apps, Salads, Soups, Wok Fried Noodles, Fried Rice, Stir Fry, Thai Curries, Fresh Shellfish, Sandwiches, weekend Seafood Boils and Boba Teas. They do Catering, also. They also serve some Cajun dishes like Gator Bites, Oysters, Gumbo, Po Boys and more. I will definitely be visiting the new spot in a few months. I think I will review some of the Cajun dishes when I go. Ohhh-- BTW-- They do have a small market selling Frozen Meats and different types of fish like Mahi, Perch, Redfish, Shellfish and Octopus.

The steak portions were also pretty small, so I was expecting a little more for the price. We also had a reservation but still ended up waiting around 30 minutes before getting seated at a hibachi table, which was frustrating. That definitely took away from the experience. The service helped make up for some of the issues, though. The chef was great, really fun, and had a happy personality that made the hibachi experience enjoyable. Overall, I'd give it 4 stars because the atmosphere and service were good, but the food portions and wait time could definitely be improved.

He was really excited to go so we made a 30 minute drive to load up on some dumplings. My first impression was that the place was clean and bright with lots of seating. We were greeted nicely and we sat down to discuss what we wanted before ordering at the register. Disney music played on the speakers the entire time and even me, a Disney-adult, I was over it after having to hear Let it Go twice in a row. We ordered quite the spread: one beef gua bao, one order of chicken & cabbage handcrafted dumplings, one pork belly rice, one chicken gua bao, one zha jiang noodles, soup dumplings, and Thai iced tea, and one jasmine milk tea. In total, with tax and tip, we spent nearly $75. Now, we wouldn't stick our nose up to spending our hard-earned money to get our grub on, however, we felt like we didn't get our money's worth here. The food was just okay. My favorite thing was the beef gua bao and I would absolutely get that one again. The Thai tea was delicious, and the chicken and cabbage dumplings were decent. My husband surprisingly loved the chicken gua bao the most and I really enjoyed it, too. But for the more expensive items like the noodles and rice bowl, they were *fine.* My rice barely had any sauce on them and minimal pieces of pork belly. The soup dumplings, though prepared nicely, were not very flavorful at all. The jasmine milk tea? Probably the worst I've ever had. My husband liked his noodles but I was not crazy about them, they had a very greasy texture to them and the mouth feel was like I was so thirsty at the mechanic that I took a swig of their synthetic motor oil. Now I will say that the employees here are very nice and they bring the food out to you as the dishes are made. Overall, I wasn't impressed with Steamboys except for their beef gua bao and Thai tea. The price didn't match the flavor for the entire meal, so we won't be going back. Service: 10/10 Food: 5/10 (the gua baos and Thai tea are the best) Drinks: 7/10
