Pad-Zee-Ew with chicken
Aparajita S.

This spot has been on my list for a while so came here for dinner with some friends. There was a good crowd inside but got seated quickly. I started off with a Thai tea which was absolutely delicious and not too sweet and quite creamy! I think it's the favorite one I've tried! For my main I went with Pad Zee Ew with chicken. We got our food shortly after and overall was impressed by how flavorful the dish was and had a nice little kick. There was plenty of chicken and veggies and honestly the portion size was quite large for the price. The staff was super nice and loved the decor inside. It shares a parking lot with a large grocery store so parking was super easy to find!

We were looking for an authentic Thai restaurant and decided to give this place a try. The ambiance definitely had an authentic Thai feel, although it was little unusual that the restaurant prefers customers to place their orders online. On thing vegetarians should be aware of is that while we specifically wanted dishes without fish sauce, we were told that all of the curries are made with oyster sauce, so this may not be the right place if you strictly avoid those ingredients. The food itself tasted good, but the portion sizes were disappointing for the price. Our vegetables noodle dish had surprisingly few noodles, and the green curry came in a fairly small bowl. Overall, while the flavors were decent, the price-to-portion ratio just didn't work for us. Unfortunately, we probably wouldn't return.

Mango sweet sticky rice

A great spot on Buford hwy for authentic Thai food! We came with some friends on a Wednesday night and it was moderately busy but there was no wait. Alex and I decided to share their massaman curry and pad see ew and I also got their nom yen as a drink to try something new. Unfortunately I HATED the nom yen lol so I'm just gonna stick to Thai tea next time but the food itself was delicious!! The massaman curry was definitely my favorite of the two dishes and I thought the heat was perfect, but the pad see ew was great if you want a noodle option. The roti was also a great app to dip into the curry. I ended the night with some mango sticky rice. I thought it was pretty good, but standard for sticky rice. Since it's close to me I'll definitely be back, and I would definitely recommend Tum Pok Pok if you're in the area!

Tom Pok Pok The place has a really unique and relaxed vibe. I immediately noticed that you can order and pay with a QR code, which makes the service super efficient; the staff super friendly. The staff is incredibly helpful and welcoming. The food was delicious and flavorful, just as I'd hoped. The pad Thai had a wonderful blend of flavors, and the noodles were perfectly cooked. The Masaman Curry was flavorful and satisfying. The mango sweet sticky rice was the perfect sweet ending to a great meal.

I really enjoyed this place and its decor. There was plenty of indoor seating and selections of various Thai foods to choose from. I've traveled to Thailand a few times and I would say this is pretty authentic. The pad Thai was on point and the curry puff pastries were amazing. The papaya salad could use some work but overall the service and entrees made up for it. Well done.

Fish Cake
Phuong D.

Tum Pok Pok, a restaurant I've visited a few times since its opening, has consistently delivered average dishes. The photos here showcase items I've tried during my visits. Despite my hopes, the food has never truly impressed me. One major disappointment is the roast pork. Unlike the crispy roast pork found in Chinese restaurants, this version is hard and chewy. The roti canai was decent, but nothing extraordinary. The fried fish cake was unique and enjoyable. However, the chicken skewers were dry and unappetizing. The mango salad was okay, while the pad kee mao and pad see yew are safe bets. The service is decent, but it can be slow during peak hours. Orders are placed by scanning a QR code at each table, and payments are also made through the same platform. When the restaurant first opened, it had a collection of "Tum Pok Pok" stickers that customers pasted all over the walls and tables. However, after a few years, these stickers have become a source of concern. While the interior decor is nice, tables with half-ripped-up stickers don't contribute to a pleasant dining experience.

This was a great spot! Food was so good. Service was very quick! I got the Pad Kee Mao and it was perfect! The perfect amount of spice. I also got their lychee martini (had me a little lit). I also had their Mango Sticky Rice. I have no idea how this is suppose to taste, honestly, but it's not as sweet as I anticipated to be. It's a little pricey, but it's worth it. The serving sizes are big in my opinion.

Well decorated interior with many Thailand related items. Very relaxed environment. Easy and plentiful parking. Server was very friendly and helpful with recommendations without being pushy. You scan a QR code and place an order from your phone. You pay when you order. It also includes preset 15% gratuity without an option to change it. I usually leave 20% but prefer to leave tip at the end of the meal not the beginning. Food came out very fast. We wanted three dishes to come out first as our appetizers but all the dishes came out in a random order. It's OK bc we were doing family style and sharing all food. If you weren't, the order of dishes coming out can feel awkward and sloppy. We ordered 3 appetizers and 3 mains. All were delicious. I would recommend others to try.

V5 Tof Man Pla (Red Curry Flavored Fish Cake)
Brittnie O.

Went to Tum Pok Pok to celebrate my friends birthday and had super delicious Thai meal. I've been here in the past when they first opened and the portions were very small but they have since elevated their portion sizes. Atmosphere: The atmosphere was giving me young and fun, with a twist of cool nostalgic retro Thai vibes. They were playing Thai pop music playing in the background that really set the mood and they were playing very upbeat Thai music in the restroom that gave you a club like party vibe. We ordered through a QR code at the table, but our server was still very attentive throughout the night. We started with a few appetizers to share with the table and a few entrees. Every dish had authentic Thai flavors that reminded me of my last trip to Thailand. Appetizers: Tod Man Pla (fish cakes): my all time favorite no matter where I go. The flavor was not overwhelming at all with the perfect blend of curry paste and strong kaffir lime leaf flavor that makes Thai fish cakes so special. The sweet dipping sauce that came with it was a perfect touch. Tao Huu Tod (fried tofu): very basic, probably would not order this again. Tofu was diced into very small cubes and lightly fried, but the sauce that it came with was nice. Moo Tod (fried pork): very juicy, and crispy, with a lot of flavor. Personally I thought there wasn't enough of a meat to fat ratio. Tum Thai (papaya salad): the ingredients were very fresh but because we didn't order it spicy (had some people that couldn't handle spicy), some of the flavors were not able to elevate the dish. If we had gotten it spicy I'm sure it would have been superior. Still very good! Main course: Tom Kha (Coconut Soup): ordered the hotpot version and the soup was very rich and creamy with coconut and had a good amount of mushrooms, tomatoes, and chicken. Only issue I had with the dish was, the metal spoon they gave us to scoop with. Wish they had a small ladle or something easier to distribute the broth. Pad Thai: The noodles were perfectly cooked with just the right chew (I don't like them too soft so they were perfect) and the sauce had that perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors. The portion was quite generous and the mix of textures from the crushed peanuts, fresh bean sprouts, and lime on the side complimented the dish very well. Green Curry: was very vibrant in color (which threw me off at the beginning but the flavor was there. It wasn't spicy or too overwhelming with the taste of coconut milk like some places. Overall, it was a great dining experience, and I'll definitely be coming back to try more dishes. Service was quick and server was friendly.

This is a Thai street food restaurant. They said it not me. I've never been to Thailand, but I had preconceived ideas about the food. There are a few designated parking spaces in front of the restaurant. You don't have to park in the designated spots. Inside the restaurant it's decorated with memorabilia. You order and pay for your food from the QR code. Food comes out fairly quickly. I have to mention that you will have to ask for a stray and napkins. Also for street food items I think everything was overpriced. And there is a fee attached along with tax. My lunch bill came up to $43. Food was alright. Just don't think I'll be going back anytime soon.

Slice Thai Tea Cake
Amanda C.

Really enjoyed this Thai spot! Got take out so I can only imagine how much better it would be having a fresh meal in person. Looking forward to going back for a dine in experience! We ordered the khao soi, pad thai, green curry, fried pork belly basil w/rice, and a thai tea cake. I just came back from northern Thailand a few months ago and the khao soi really hit the spot. Loved how all the foods were not too sweet or too salty. Felt closer to the foods I had in Thailand compared to some of the Americanized Thai spots. The thai tea cake was good but I would probably try a different dessert next time since I didn't love it.

This is one of our all-time favs back home in ATL! Highly recommend this spot if you're in the A and looking for some Thai food. Pad See Ew with Crispy Pork Belly - 10/10 Might be the goat of pad see ews. The classic deep umami richness with sweet caramelized notes done right. Their beef option is phenomenal and probably more popular, but the crispy pork belly version offers a somewhat more unique twist that just hits the spot. Seafood Pad Thai - 10/10 Their take on Pad Thai is among the best, if not the best, in the game. Bright, tangy, nutty, and slightly sweet. Crispy Pork Belly Bites + Thai Isan Sausage - 8.5/10 The pork belly pairs excellently with their cilantro-lime dipping sauce. Their sausage has a crispy casing with spicy minced meat and herbs - it's quite unique and definitely worth trying. Seafood Tom-Kha Soup - 9/10 Creamy, tangy, savory, spicy flavor profile. Basically a coconut-lime hug with a gentle kick! Red Nom Yen - 9/10 An iced milk-based drink that is sweet, creamy, and fragrant. Kind of like a Thai strawberry milk!

I love their ordering system. It's supposed to be like Thai street food style, so there's a bell at your table to call your server whenever you need them. On a QR code, you open a tab and keep ordering until you close your tab. I like that I can order anything whenever I want and receive it in that order. Prices were fair. The 15% service fee is perfect, although I tipped an additional 3%. The menu is difficult to choose from if you're unfamiliar with Thai food as a whole. I had strangers ask what I was ordering. The roti curry, I wish there was more substance to it. It's just boring liquid curry and roti for $9. The warm mango sticky rice was really good. The tom kha soup was better than other restaurants. The pad zee ew rice noodle was overcooked it broke apart into crumbles, but had great flavor. The Thai tea was a bit sweet but good, I like that the tea pot gives you two servings worth. I will return next time to try other things.

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.

I don't recall which bagels they got themselves, but they both thoroughly enjoyed them! My husband ordered a veggie "hot pocket" and an everything bagel with plain cream cheese. He ate the bagel pretty much right away and also enjoyed his. A nice thing about the hot pockets is that you can choose to order them heated or not if you aren't planning to eat them right away. We got them unheated so we could eat them later. Once we were ready for them, we followed the suggestion to warm them in the air fryer so they were flaky and crispy, which turned out well. Husband said he preferred the bagel over the hot pocket. I ordered a bacon, egg and cheese hot pocket, and I loved the flakiness of the pastry! The filling was fine overall, and even though I don't eat a lot of bacon, I enjoy it from time to time. But I felt like my hot pocket had much more bacon than it really needed. It was kind of overpowering, so I ended up removing some of the larger chopped pieces as I ate. One pretty significant drawback was that the hot pockets were mislabeled in the to-go bags. When my husband warmed what was labeled as "veggie" for himself, he ended up biting into my bacon, egg and cheese--and he doesn't eat pork at all! Thankfully, we were both planning on eating them around the same time, so we were able to easily swap. But imagine the surprise of someone who has never eaten pork biting into something filled with it. Yikes! I can't say anything about the ambiance or service myself since I haven't actually visited, but our friends said it was a nice casual spot. We don't live on that side of town, but maybe we'd come back for a bagel if we were in the mood while in the area.

I wholeheartedly wish I could give this place 10 stars! I discovered Piraye Kitchen because my…read morefiancée sent me a Facebook video of their massive meat pie. 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!
