I'd been to the Erawan in Sandy Springs several times over the year and absolutely loved the food,…read moreso while family was in town for the holidays we decided to pop in to this location for dinner. First, the staff is absolutely amazing. We called ahead to see if they could accommodate a table for 10 and they were happy to oblige. We got there and they had a table ready to go and sat us right away. The waitress was so sweet and really took the time to answer questions and crack jokes with us. Truly made us feel at home in their restaurant. The food was chef kiss! We ordered the shrimp tom kha to start and spicy catfish as the main course. Both were delicious and the spice level was just right. The spicy powder and sauce on the table added a little extra for those of us that tend to like a tad more heat. Other orders at the table: drunken noodles, green curry, red snapper, duck, fried rice, and spring rolls. Everything was so good we barely had any left overs at the end of the meal. Definitely recommend this place if you're in the area. So glad we got the opportunity to dine with them!

What a pleasant surprise this locally owned Thai restaurant turned out to be…read more Erawan Thai in Cumming has quickly become our favorite Thai spot in the area. We met the owner during our visit, and she is incredibly kind and clearly passionate about her food. She personally oversees many of the dishes, and it shows in the quality. Up front, Landon handled our service, and he was excellent... friendly, attentive, and welcoming. He deserves a shoutout for the great service. We ordered gyoza and dumplings to start, and both were very good. The dipping sauce they serve is not the typical soy sauce mix you find at most places; it has a sweeter profile and paired perfectly. I also ordered the chicken Tom Kha soup (it's a coconut base broth) and it was outstanding!!! Earthy, full of chicken and mushrooms, and very flavorful. For entrées, my wife ordered their red curry with veggies and it was so good! Plenty on potats that combined well with the rest of the curry meall and rice, and I tried the drunken noodles. The noodles were cooked perfectly... not mushy, not overdone, but with a great texture and "snap." The portion size was generous enough that I actually had leftovers, which is rare for me. Desserts were another highlight. The mango sticky rice was excellent, very soft and well-balanced. The coconut cake was also fantastic, with a cream-cheese-style icing and a very moist interior. There are several Thai restaurants in this area, but we truly believe this one stands out above the rest. Great food, excellent service, and a warm, welcoming ownership. One important note: Google Maps randomly dropped us off you at the wrong location. The correct spot is in the same shopping center as Papa John's off Peachtree Parkway (address shows 1595 Peachtree Parkway). Highly recommended for anyone in or near Cumming. Help support our small local businesses owners!!!

Ambiance: It was a busy restaurant because the food is good. The atmosphere was Thai themed! Prices: I'd say the prices were pretty reasonable for this day and age where the price of everything is so high. I definitely recommend this spot and we will definitely return!! It was not difficult to decide on a 5 star rating for this spot. If you have a craving for Thai food on the north side of town it's definitely worth a try!

The owners are always present and if you're lucky, they may even serve you! They always give service with a great personality and smile. We have recommended this family owned restaurant to many friends that understand great food. Get with it Cumming!

The…read morelunch specials are at dinner price, so I dont know how much more dinner would cost, didnt look but im not paying more than I paid. It was $20 each for the drunken noodle and red curry. At lunch special. We did get seafood so it bumped each up to $19.95. Lunch special? It would be okay if it were amazing, but it was just pretty good. Unfortunately the seafood was not up to par. The squid pieces were charred and super chewy. I love squid, and yes, its supposed to be chewy, but not so much you can't really eat it. The mussels looked charred and gross and I did not eat it. The curry was tasty, and the drunken noodles were good enough. I think a give away that its not a traditional Thai restaurant is they dont have vinegar and jalapeño, which is pretty much at every authentic Thai restaurant. They only had vinegar. Service was a bit strange. We and one other group were eating but even with 2 staff, it was hard to get their attention. I had to walk up to them because they wouldn't come by or look over. Alas, the search for excellent Thai in the area continues.

I used to go here before they changed their name…read moreand was worried about coming back once they rebranded...Safe to say that it is the same, great experience that I had 3 years ago. The Thai Basil Fried Rice at medium spice is my go-to and it is delicious at every hour of the day. I have gone during lunch hours and have returned with a party of 7 people and the quality of food never changes. The fried ice cream is also pretty good, and the Thai tea is great! It reminds me of Adeni Chai as a base, but they use different additives, so its a completely different experience. The service is also a 10/10 and I love the vibe. The lighting is great, and it is so interesting to see a bit into Thai culture. I would recommend this spot to anyone!! Also, just a heads up, Thai people don't eat with chopsticks!! Haha, I was confused when they gave me a fork and spoon and had to go do my own research.

We were going to another local Thai Restaurant when we realized it was closed on Tuesday. We had…read moretried Rice a long time ago and couldn't remember if we liked it. The place was very busy for a Tuesday night (good sign) but the service was very attentive. Drinks refilled before they got 1/2 down. Food came out fast. The steamed potstickers were excellent but luke warm. My wife had Hot and Sour Soup for dinner and it was very tasty although a bit salty and also not that warm. I had Pad Thai it it was EXCELLENT. Hot, perfect flavor, tender chicken, just spot on.

Service: 10/10 great service, friendly and quick…read more Food: Miso soup and hot and sour soup both were very good. Sushi/Sashimi was hit and miss. Quality is decent. The biggest problem in my opinion is that they put way too much sauce on everything so if you're ordering a dish that comes with some type of sauce, you may want to tell them to use a little bit. Baked green mussels, albacore ponzu dish, spicy scallops all drowning in sauce. Spicy tuna was not spicy at all, zero flavor heavy rice. Aburi scallop sushi was delicious but Aburi scallop sashimi was drowning in sauce, cute presentation though. Ambience: nice vibes, gets loud. So 3.5 stars here. Proceed with a easyy sauce mantra.

We did not feel rushed at all, and he was patient when taking our order. Ordered the kao soi which is one of my favorite dishes, and it did not disappoint! It's hard to find this on a Thai menu so seeing it here, it was a must try. I will recommend it to anyone who is looking for a hearty meal with a curry based soup and delicious noodles. Generally it is egg noodle-based but their version used rice noodles which was a fine substitute. The chicken was flavorful and the portion was generous, loved the crispy noodles in the curry broth which is a standard topping. All in all I would recommend this place to anyone in the area! They seem to be a family run business and I hope they do well so I can continue frequenting their restaurant. :)

My partner and I decided to try Tani Thai 02.20.2026 and stopped by around 6:30PM for dinner…read more First off, the interior seemed clean and well-kept. The ambiance was dark and intimate, which I appreciated -- it gave the space a cozy, relaxed vibe that felt nice for a dinner date. The music was low and soft, which worked well since most of the tables were talking pretty loudly. It didn't feel chaotic or overstimulating, and we were still able to have a comfortable conversation. Service was decent -- we were seated quickly and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Here's what we ordered: Tiger's Tears ($15) - 3/5 This was the dish I was most excited about. It's described as grilled beef with chili-lime seasoning, onions, scallions, and sweet peppers. Unfortunately, it fell short of expectations. The beef was noticeably tough, chewy, and a bit sinewy rather than tender and juicy. The chili-lime sauce was very sharp and aggressively acidic -- overwhelmingly sour to the point where it masked the savory, char-grilled flavor of the meat. It was supposed to be spicy, but as an Asian who regularly eats and enjoys spicy food, there was barely any heat at all. The dish looked vibrant and colorful, but flavor-wise it felt unbalanced and slightly one-dimensional. Basil Fried Rice with Chicken ($18) - 2.5/5 The menu labeled this as spicy as well, but again, there was zero kick. Not even a subtle warmth. It tasted like very standard, plain fried rice -- mildly seasoned, slightly oily, and lacking depth. The fresh Thai basil aroma wasn't very pronounced, and the overall flavor felt muted and underwhelming. The chicken was okay texture-wise, but the dish as a whole didn't stand out or justify the price point. It needed more heat, more fragrance, and more boldness to feel like true Thai basil fried rice. Coconut Mushroom Soup with Chicken ($5.50) - 2/5 This one was disappointing. When it first arrived, it was comforting and creamy with a light coconut aroma. Initially, it tasted balanced and mildly savory. However, as it sat and I alternated between dishes, the flavor became increasingly sour and slightly off-putting. The chicken was extremely dry, stringy, and overcooked, which made it difficult to enjoy. The broth lacked the rich, silky depth I was hoping for and ended up tasting thin, overly acidic, and somewhat flat. Thai Teas ($5.50 each) - 3.5/5 Honestly, these saved the night. Sweet, creamy, and refreshing -- exactly what you expect from a good Thai tea. Smooth, well-balanced, and flavorful. Water - 0/5 I took one sip and didn't touch it again. It tasted like straight tap water with a faint cleaning solution scent. Thankfully, we had the Thai Teas to rely on. Overall, the experience was okay but not memorable. The atmosphere and ambiance were pleasant, but the food didn't quite deliver -- especially considering how Thai cuisine is typically bold, aromatic, spicy, and layered. For us, the dishes leaned either too sour or too bland, without much balance in between. Given the prices, we were expecting more depth and stronger flavors. Not a terrible experience, but not one we'd rush back for either.

I drove by here all the time in the two years I have lived in Cumming. 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.
