2 1/2 stars. My friends I were craving Thai and decided to go here since it was close by. Food was just ok for me. Not bad but just not something I would eat again. Thai flavors are usually bold but my food was pretty bland. I guess I was just disappointed because I was really craving good Thai food and this just wasn't it. I ordered the chicken wings and the chicken and shrimp panang. Wasn't a fan of the wings at all. Even with the sauce it was just not working for me. The panang lacked seasoning and my chicken in it was over cooked and dry but the shrimp were pretty big and plentiful so I did enjoy that. My pomegranate lemon drop was meh. read more

Excellent drunken noodles and Penang Curry! I also enjoyed their Pad Thai which I'm normally not a fan of anywhere else.

Incredible food! I had the basil chicken fried rice and it was perfect. I don't usually eat Thai food, it I'm so glad I did. Not only was the food amazing, but the service was too. Our delivery person was extremely respectful of the distancing rules and very sweet. 10/10 would Thai it again read more

The food is superb. It's a nice ambience as well. Not real fancy but nice. The service is great as well.

We got take out from here. The curry was watery. The salmon looked nice but tasted fishy. And here is where it gets really bad, there was a shirt tag in my white rice!!!! WTF?! read more

Taste of the food is great! But wayyyy too expensive for the type of restaurant. One crab fried rice, one of the noodle dishes and a cup of soup was $56. The menus on Yelp are very outdated for prices. read more

The wings are grade C or D size (very small) 6 for $10. The chicken in the coconut soup was dry. The pad zu with double chicken only came with half a chicken breast worth of meat. The chicken larb didn't come with cabbage leaves but with ground cabbage (cole slaw) Please save your money! read more

The ordering system is a little odd but it's the best Thai food in Atlanta. The cocktails aren't bad either. I'm glad to have it in the rotation. read more

Safiyyah was so kind tonight. It was almost 10pm and closing time. I ordered food to go. After a full shift, I don't know if I would have been so kind and have such a big smile on my face. But she did. And it was so nice to walk in and have someone actually show that they care about my food and my evening. The gentleman at the register was also extremely kind. The food is also excellent. I will most definitely be coming back next time. read more

Just had a very filling dinner at Spoon Eastside. My boyfriend and I decided to give Spoon a try and we weren't disappointed in the least. The waitress was attentive from the time we were seated until we left. We ordered spring rolls, traditional shrimp stir fry, and jasmine rice stir fry with veggies. Everything was fresh and hot when it arrived at the table. There was no need for soy or any other sauces, as the food was very full of flavor just as it was. The serving sizes were more than enough, as I was able to bring home leftovers for tomorrow's lunch. We will definitely keep Spoon on our list of nearby places to go for a filling lunch or dinner date. read more

Nothing special. The pad Thai is without flavor; the chicken in it was dry, overcooked, and difficult to find. The pineapple fried rice is mostly rice, very little vegetable or fruit and again, overcooked protein.. The dumplings were also overcooked. read more

Got the Pad Z U w/ broccoli and tofu delivered! Very tasty and nicely packed, I will be back for sure! read more

Spoon Eastside - Pad Z U with broccoli and tofu - Thai Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I used to enjoy coming here, but after todays experience for a Party of One, a $4 gratuity was included. That alone is ridiculous, but when I saw the final cost for a Masamun Curry with Chicken and a Thai tea, the grand total was $28+?! Wtf? This will be the last time I come here if the prices are going to be this outrageous. Unreal, save your money or go get a steak dinner for the same or less price. read more

Liked~Liked~ Liked Being outside DISLIKED - DISLIKED - DISLIKED - DISLIKED The food The basil fried rice tasted nothing remotely like Basil, or even basil fried rice I've had before; I don't think I've ever really had tasty food here .. I think I end up coming because I put Thai food in the GPS, and don't realize I've been here until it's too late... and I'm starving. But I won't make that mistake again. The smell on the inside is not fresh.. (I walked right on the patio to be seated didn't actually go inside until I went to the restroom, after eating ) Not a great Thai spot. read more

Great meal!!! Spring rolls and Pad Zu with chicken! Everything was tasty and cooked perfect. The spring rolls were crispy and the dipping sauce was delish! The noodles were heaven! Perfect blend of savory with hint of sweet and all the veggies were so fresh! I LOVED this place and I will 100% be back! read more

Spoon Eastside - Pad Zu with chicken and spring rolls!!!! The Noodle dish was heaven and the spring rolls were a perfect bite! So crispy and fresh! - Thai Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

The menu prices online are outdated, the things we went in for were over $5 more than we expected. There's also a 20% surcharge on all orders for low staff which would be fine if you actually had a server but you do not, you order at a counter. The gnat flying around our table was more interactive than the staff. and the atmosphere was not what we had in mind. It's a small box of a restaurant with half of it being the bar, and EDM playing in the background. Sucks to give a bad review when the food was good but it was not worth it. read more

After a long walk to Piedmont Park and a bit along the Beltline with our fur babies, we needed a place to camp out and grab dinner before it got too late. The sun was going down and it was getting super cold out, with the storm coming. We called around and every place my husband called around us (with Asian/Thai food) declined us sitting outside with our fur babies (2 yorkies). Spoon was welcoming us with open arms and had beautiful outdoor seating arrangements under string lights. We didn't really like the Tom Kha (I am Lao/Thai but the Lao part of me likes ours made differently, thicker). Everyone loved the rest of the food - our dogs ate ALL but one of the chicken wing meat which was a plus. They love Asian marinades so I knew they'd eat the wings. Hehe, but they had a rough last few days due to having to move frantically due to Hurricane Irma, so they hadn't eaten much. Also, the Thai Tea martini was a HIT! I asked for a Thai Coffee version and they definitely made it happen, so delicious! Would definitely return! read more

Eat in, take out, and delivery are all solid. Love the noodle dishes and the curries. Golden fish is nice. Skip the pot stickers.

3.5 stars for Spoon! It was a lazy Sunday evening and we ventured to Spoon for some comfort "Thai" food. Although the space is small, the ambiance is chic. We ordered the tempura calamari and lump crab fried rice. The calamari was average at best and could use a bit more flavor. The lump crab fried rice was yummy with just the right amount of spice. The service was attentive and friendly. All in all, I'd recommend Spoon for a lovely date night. However, with so many ATL Thai restaurants to choose from...there are tastier options. read more

As a local this is hands down the BEST Thai in Atlanta. I have tried a lot of Thai places but Spoon is my go to. Their bar is phenomenal, they have a great craft cocktail list. The owners parents work the kitchen and the food is amazing. Best pad Thai, best curry, best everything. Can't go wrong if you need a Thai fix. Plus the owners usually behind the bar and super friendly read more

Spoon Eastside is a trendy Thai fusion spot located in the East Atlanta corridor. It used to be located on Marietta Street downtown. Tip: if you're planning on coming with a large party on the weekend. Call ahead and make reservations. Half your party has to be present before you will be seated. Does Happy hour make you happy? Call to see what the happy hour special of the day or week is. $5 Cocktails and half off bottle of wines under $50 are a couple of them. They have a lot of custom cocktails on the menu, moderately priced at $8. The vibe is nice and chill with great music and eclectic decor. I like that you can come casually dressed of you want to, but it's also a nice place to come if you want to be a littler "fancier". We met up with a group of friends and family for drinks and appetizers on Friday night. We had the Shrimp in a Blanket which were delicious shrimp, wrapped in a won ton wrapper and deep fried to a golden brown with a sweet chili sauce on the side, the savory Cheese Rolls and the Fried Calamari which my husband ate. He said they were "good" but not anything to write home about. Our Server was AMAZING and kept the drinks coming all night long. read more

Ended up here last night after a bad first impression at another restaurant. I am so glad we ended up here! It was delicious. For starters, I had the coconut soup and boyfriend had the cheese rolls. Both were so delicious! The soup was seasoned perfectly. My entree was the Pad Kee Mao with ground chicken (made mine hot - that have numerous levels for spiciness). BF had the Pad Zu with chicken. Yuuuuuum! I asked for bean sprouts to be added to my dish, but was told they ran out AFTER I had to ask about them missing from my dish. This took them down a star. Our waitress was good, too. Overall, I can't wait to go back! read more

Great food and service! We ordered the pineapple rice with beef, the spicy basil noodles with chicken, and the green curry with chicken. Every meal was delicious! Lychee martinis were outstanding! There were some aggressively loud patrons who were kind or annoying but I was not in the mood to lodge a complaint. Overall, great time! read more

I ordered food from here and requested to make it vegan (which is something they offer and I've had before) but they sent my food with egg it in. I was unable to eat it. read more

I don't know what made me drive halfway across the city to try out this Spoon location rather than the Westside option (which is much closer to me), but I'm glad I did it. Nestled in a new little enclave with a couple of other businesses, Spoon has some seriously tasty eats. I have a problem with Thai food. And that problem is that I always order the EXACT same meal. And that meal is way more food than I can ever handle. I don't know what makes Thai food bring out the masochist in me, but I can't walk out of any Thai spot without ordering tom kha and pad thai. Every. single. time. My choices at Spoon were no different, except I opted for the glass noodle pad thai rather than the traditional. The tom kha was very nice: a solid amount of spice without being overpowering, lots of mushrooms, bursting with flavor. The pad thai was also great, lots of peanuts, sprouts and lime: perfection in my book. I was a little annoyed by the pricing on the menu: while it's listed at $8, it's actually $10 once you add any type of protein. Boo for that. Service was great, attentive without hanging. They've got free wi-fi, so I can certainly see returning here again for a working lunch. Plus, they did this really crazy art with the wrapper from the straw, with which I was seriously impressed. read more

I've had Thai at several spots around Atlanta. I was looking for a new spot to try out my favorite Thai dish..Thai Hot Basil Fried Rice. I normally get this dish from Top Spice or EAV . I was glad to see that they had a Lump Crabmeat version which I added Shrimp to the dish. I sat at the bar. I had 2 martinis-Cherry Blossom and Pink and Cucumber .Everything I had was Delicious! The service was on point. I will DEFINITELY return again to dine in or order carry out. read more

I have a weird obsession with basil fried rice and the location I usually order from was closed. Tried out Spoon and I was not impressed. Not really that spicy. Flavor was not really there. There was an odd flavor not sure what it was. But the food was hot as far as temperature but the veggies were soggy. Really disappointed. read more

Spoon Eastside - Basil Fried Rice - Thai Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I'm a fan of the restaurant so far, however, I'm a bit disappointed with my meal. I called in an order to go of their Khao Soi Gai and it was ready in 15 minutes when I arrived and I was swiftly checked out and on my way with my Khao Soi! Great service and loved the restaurant atmosphere - I do look forward to coming back and dining in and trying some other dishes. The Khao Soi Gai was nearly $20 dollars and it sure seemed like I got about a half a bowl for my order. Not much soup, not a lot of chicken. But, either way I was excited about the Khao Soi - I'm a bit of a Khao Soi connoisseur, fanatic and a fein for the stuff! So even though it was expensive, I'd have been ok with it - but, the problem was it seemed like it was Chicken Panang Curry and not Khao Soi. My Thai wife confirmed my thoughts. The curry was delicious. In any case, I did enjoy the meal and we'll definitely stop back through to give Spoon another try. read more

We did not have the best experience at Spoon despite it being a slow Thursday evening. We got there around 8 and got seated rather quickly. We ordered some cocktails ($8) and they were very week. I ordered the Atlanta Mule and it was pretty much ginger beer. If I wanted just ginger beer I would have asked for it. I ordered the Massamum curry with Chicken ($11+3). You have to add an extra. Not sure why they wouldn't have chicken as the base like all other restaurant and up charge for a different meat. It was delicious but the server forgot our silverware and the spicy sauces we asked at the beginning. I've had better for cheaper and you can too. read more

Spoon Eastside - Thai Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I live in south suburbs of Atlanta, so I like the location and cluster of food options off of Moreland. I really like Spoon Eastside because it combines my favorite food genre, Thai, with a chill bar scene and creative cocktail options. The ambiance is fun but quaint, the waiters are cool and swanky and most important - for me - the food is extra delish. I can personally attest to the Fried rice and drunken noodle dishes. I went on Valentine's Day before the pandemic and the set menu, dim lights, and, romantic centerpieces made it look like I was a romantic date picker extraordinaire. Great place, great food. read more

Horrible food. Bad taste. No where close to a Thai restaurant. No trace of coconut milk in any food ordered. Also had chicken pieces in a vegetarian order. I could not eat more than one spoon after tasting. Not sure how people gave good ratings for this place. read more

Wonderful we love spoons the food was great it's only our second time going but every times was great. Thank you for great service. We will be back soon I would come everyday of my life if my husband agreed to it lol read more

A casual and delicious place for a meal. I ate solo, the couple beside me sounded to be on their first date. There were families, couples and even a large group of friends. The staff is friendly and attentive. The ambiance, decorations and atmosphere is eclectic, but in a good way. The food was delicious. It is wonderful that each meal can easily be converted to vegetarian. The levels of spice/heat is on par with most Thai places I've enjoyed. The location is good, and the first parking is in a shared private lot and not much of a challenge to maneuver. read more

A very solid thai joint for east Atlanta. Our waiter was excellent and made us laugh. It is a bit pricier than I am used to, but the food was good and my drink was even better. I had the spoon rum punch which was absolutely delicious, and our favorite entree was the pad kee mao. We also had the ginger stir fry and the massaman curry. I did not like the massaman curry that much. read more

Wife and I both loved our dishes. Pad Thai for her and Tofu Stir Fried rice for me were both great. Starter was fried vegetables that were light and crispy. Everything was great, and our waitress was attentive. Can't believe I never ate here when living only 3 miles away. read more

Consistently delicious, fresh, flavorful. Recipes are consistent. The friendliest service whether in a pandemic or not. Caring owners, a vital part of our community. read more

I seriously doubt the food credibility of yelp reviewers now. How can this place be 4 stars. Food. Flavoring has no depth, and the shrimp was over cooked. We had the masuman and did not taste the layers. The only thing good about this place is ambiance. Here is the deal. Thai food can be refined and evolved while staying true to its culinary roots. This place was not successful. Plating was lazy too...there is nothing creative about putting rice in a bowl and then flip it over on the place. read more

I came here with my friends Greg A, and Kevin C. We got the House Special Duck sauteed with with ground chicken and lemon grass and we also got the penang curry with chicken. The House Special Duck was actually pretty good. I do want to point out something. It's listed on the menu as half a duck. It's not half a duck Its 2 legs and thighs of a duck. SIGNIFICANTLY less meat. And to any true meat lover, a disappointment. However, the duck that we had was well executed, if not spectacular. The duck meat was not dry nor tough, but it wasn't as moist and tender as a well cooked Peking duck. The skin however, did stay crispy throughout the meal. And it was nice to have the bed ground chicken and green beans, which meant that we had more food to mix with our rice. The flavor itself was pretty good. Spicy, salty, with a slight sweetness. ALMOST how thai food is supposed to be. Except not as spicy. And $26 dollars is a little excessive for the amount of food you are getting. Ok, very excessive. $26 The curry however was a disappointment to me (again). you pay 11 dollars for just the sauce and rice!!!, the 2 dollars for the meat, and you end up with a 13 dollar curry dish that has no more curry than.... a 7 dollar appetizer (the roti canal from Penang). Seriously, not cool. $13 w/chicken. And I do agree with previous reviewers. The curry here is a little heavy on the coconut milk, and hence a bit too sweet. So in the end, we ended up paying 10 a person because we had a scoutmob. With the scoutmob, the experience would be a 3 star experience, but without it..... It's just overpriced thai food. Go to buford hwy, and if you have no idea where to go, go to Penang. Let's just say I would never come to Spoon without some form of discount or a coupon. read more
