    Thank you Ethan Quachin'it for wonderful drinks! Your service is so aura maxxing and awesome!!!!

    Tindrum Asian Cafe was honestly such a great experience. The food came out fresh, hot, and full of flavor, and everything tasted amazing. The portions were solid, the service was quick, and the whole place had a really chill vibe. A big shoutout to my server, Ethan Christopher Quach, for being super friendly, helpful, and making the experience even better. You can tell this place really cares about both the food and the customer service. Definitely one of those spots you end up craving again later. Safe to say... I'm Quachin it.

    Despite being a chain, this was my first time visiting one of these locations. This location was a bit difficult to access since it's in the Collection at Forsyth. There were no spots near the restaurant when I went so we parked near the movie theater and walked over. It was pretty busy inside as well. We placed our orders and it took maybe 15-20 minutes to receive our food. I ordered the Phuket woon sen and it was very tasty. For the price ($10.50 + $1.50 for protein) you get a decent portion but probably not enough for leftovers. My only complaint was that I ordered grilled chicken with my meal and my friend got fried chicken for the same dish. The price to add chicken was the same ($1.50) but if you ordered fried chicken you got a lot larger portion. I would say the dish had double the amount of fried chicken than grilled chicken.

    Confession time - my husband and I go here weekly. We truly love it that much! Typically, we'll either do date night here and eat inside and then walk across the street for a movie at AMC, or we'll get takeout/delivery. We've had great experiences in all three situations, and probably get takeout most often. Their service is always quick and everyone behind the counter clearly works as a team and helps each other out. They do have limited seating on a busy day/night, but we've never run into the issue of not finding a table (it's usually just two of us though). My top three favorite dishes are the Chicken Lettuce Wraps, the Citrus Pad Thai, and the Chinatown Lo Mein. I get a cup (sometimes a bowl) of the Thai coconut soup (tom kha gai) every.single.time. It's my absolute favorite - especially in winter. Their recipe just hits it out of the ballpark and makes my tastebuds dance and sing! They also have a ton of Boba and Fruit Teas, and they even sell Hi-Chews candy in store (IYKYK).

    Chicken Ramen. Yum. Limited time.

    We love Tin Drum. It's fast Asian fusion. We go before a movie usually. Portions are large. Food is fresh. Area is ultra clean. You can adjust the level of spice in each dish. I have had several different dishes. Rice. Noodles. Soup. All excellent. Be sure to use their app. You can get free stuff.

    Delicious food, the staff is very nice and respectful, the restaurant is very clean. So many delicious refreshing drinks to beat the summer

    I don't know how this place doesn't have 5 stars ‍ My food was ready super fast, the food was delicious and healthy (if you get sauce on the side) and using the app, there seems to always be something free! The sweet and savory chicken hits the spot every time and the side salad was better than expected with the hidden basil and cilantro The girl at the counter didn't know how to ring up my free salad but luckily the manager was right there to assist quickly. Great job. Lots of great shopping around the area so great location. Ambiance was chill.

    I have been a customer of Tin Drum for over 10 years now. It has really changed. This is my last order. The portion is tiny, and it is waterless and tasteless. Please do not waste your money with this horrible restaurant.

    no egg

    Before I get into my rant, let me preface this, I do really like this place. I come here with my friends all the time and I personally love it. Other than this time. I ordered tonkotsu ramen which is fine, but there was one thing missing. One crucial element to the beloved tonkotsu ramen. The tonkotsu ramen consists of many beautifully crafted elements from the delicious broth down to the char-shu pork (if that's what you order). There's so many elements and flavors to this ramen it's unbelievable. But when this one ingredient is missing, it ruins the whole dish. That ingredient, is the soy egg. This egg, while simple, inflates this meal from a cheap flavorless ramen into the most perfect bowl of ramen you could have in Cumming, GA. I came here with 4 of my friends (so 5 in total), and we all ordered either tonkotsu ramen or bangin' miso ramen. As the ramen rolled out hot and fresh from the kitchen, we were all joyous to dine in. Sweat dripping from as our saliva piled up in our mouths. This was the moment we were all waiting on, time to feast! (or so we thought...) 2 of the 5 bowls didn't have the beloved soy egg. Meal destroyed. Day ruined. Never, and I mean never, coming back here again. EVER! A bowl of ramen without an egg is like the NYC skyline after 9/11. Something's just missing. Beware before you enter this building, or you will be shocked when your juicy delicious soy egg has gone missing. Safe travels. Pictures below for evidence.

    Though I'd like to say this is a pretty average Americanized "Asian" food place, I find this location underwhelming in comparison to its other locations. The food came out unusually fast, and that was an intentional use of the word "unusual." The food tasted like a meal I would try to cook at home for myself for the first time and purposefully not share. The spices felt unbalanced and the cooking process felt accidental. DISHES: we ordered special curry dish as well as the Singapore noodles with tofu. There wasn't great depth of flavor in either, and the tofu was a bit overcooked and reminded me of the dishes I used to eat that made me question returning to eat the soy product again. SERVICE: It was unmemorable at most. Like many order-at-the-counter spots, the initial order is the only time for any interaction with staff. The person that took our order was polite enough, yet not particularly cheery or helpful on the customer service front. ENVIRONMENT: Tin Drum locations have this metallic, industrial vibe to them, but I find that even the Georgia Tech location masters it better. It seemed cold in temperature and the chairs were resultantly uncomfortable. There was an odd smell that wasn't inviting to come and eat. The place was clean enough, but not a place I'm thinking of returning, especially given the number of surrounding restaurants in the Collection.

Service was okay, but the food was amazing: my son and daughter both ordered ramen, I decided on Red Curry, which was amazing.

My taste buds were singing with my red curry, which I hadn't had in a while. Decent parking, but getting in and out off the main road is difficult.

Rich broth, tender noodles, melt-in-your-mouth pork belly, and the perfect soft egg. Every slurp = pure comfort. Refreshing but not too sweet, my favorite was the lychee and passion fruit tea. Not a fan of sushi? They have Thai food here too. The Pad Thai was yummy!

The weird thing is that I…read morehave tried two other spots going to the Sugar Hill direction, and both of those places are very underwhelming. I had a meeting with a customer at NoFo this week, and I realized after there was no food I was into. So on the way home I stopped in here and asked to be seated. I was the only one there, which was slightly concerning at first. I was hungry, I ordered egg rolls, and then the tangerine beef and fried rice. The egg rolls are what you'd expect, crispy and texturally perfect. I like adding a touch of soy sauce to get more salt in. Helped bring out some of the vegetable flavors more. The tangerine beef was spectacular. The portion was large, and I shouldn't have eaten it all, but there was no going back. The side of fried rice was great, I usually don't eat rice because of diabetes- but blood sugar be damned. Definitely tough to see this location as it is set back behind Walgreens. But I am glad I decided to finally stop and try this. The food was piping hot and service was great. I certainly will be back to get some takeout soon, as they are head and shoulders ahead of the other offerings on Cumming Hwy. Support Small businesses!

I ate there today, and it was painfully clear the restaurant I've loved for years is dead and gone. In my first ever conversation with new ownership I was lied to my face stating the kitchen staff and recipes were all the same as if I've not eaten there 200 times by now. My go-to drink (Thai iced tea) came out undrinkably sweet, then came out a second time basically a cup full of creamer. My curry was inedibly salty, and all ingredients were set separately as if I'm eating a school lunch on a tray and not a curry dish; it was evident the cook had never prepared a curry in their life. I did not drink or eat more than a few sips and a few nibbles, then refused my meal and left hungry. Steer clear.
