So far I have had them 4 times, three in one week!! They have been constantly amazing. Flavor profiles are great. This restaurant has allowed me to try dishes that I would not have normally tried. The rice is phenomenally fresh every time. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it. I'll update with pictures the next time I order. Gwinnett county lack good restaurants. This is a rare gem, bottom line try it!! read more

Thai food served at a pretty upscale looking place. The price is no different from other Thai restaurant, but the establishment was on a whole another level. Nice to go on a date for sure. I tried their honey chicken, but it wasn't as good as the other review said. Maybe I had too high of an expectation. Massaman curry though. Very new approach with it. most massaman carry what I call heavy ingredients like potato and carrots. But Tani Thai's massaman only had colored peppers avocado cashew and the meat. I enjoyed it. Man I really love massaman and I grade most Thai places with their curry and their pad thai. I need to try their Pad Thai now. read more

The service and food were very good. The crispy basil duck I ordered was amazing. I'll be returning to this restaurant.

One of our go to restaurants in buford. Get some cheese rolls, eggs rolls and ask for some, pig nom pow, fish sauce with peppers. Tigers tear, 4 level spicy, will have you sweating and runny nose. Great stuff read more

Nope. Not going back. Soup was good but the drunken noodles were missing the noodles and I found TWO bones in the chicken!!! And there were bugs that were swarming my table. I left feeling sick. Plenty of better read more

Tani Thai Restaurant - See the bug IN my glass - Thai Near Me - Buford, Georgia

Probably the worst Thai food I've ever eaten. $72 for three items. Never ordering from here again. Gross.

A hidden gem of a spot. This was my first Thai restaurant experience and I have to have more of it. The food was delicious. My wife and I popped in on Saturday night without a reservation. They accommodated us with no wait which was a plus. They really bailed me out. There are several curry and even duck options to choose from. There wasn't many mixed drink options but they did have a full bar. My wife says the dirty martini was tasty. All of the staff wore masks. We will be dining here again soon. read more

Tani Thai is definitely worth the visit. The interior decor has a surprisingly elegant feel, with a quiet comfortable ambiance that allows you to settle in and feel relaxed. The service was prompt and polite and had a nicer restaurant feel not like service you would get at a typical Thai restaurant. We did have a hiccup with the order but they promptly corrected it with apologies from everybody who had been at the table. Regarding the food we had the: Shrimp Cones: 5 Star Lemongrass Mushroom Soup w/ chik: 3 Star (a little too sweet for me) Tiger Tears Salad: 4 Star Basil Fried Rice: 3 Star Crispy Basil Duck 5 Star (Simply Amazing) All in All: Ambiance: 4 Service: 5 Food: 4 Overall: Lower 4s Definitely a place worth repeat visits. Well worth the price. Wish they had Papaya Salad. read more

Their food is always amazing!!! Very authentic Thai food. The Pad Thai and Red Curry Chicken are my favorites.

The restaurant's atmosphere is very beautiful. Unfortunately, we were not greeted at the door when we arrived and waited until one of the waiters came to seat us. We ordered our cocktails from the waitress and the bartender brought us our martinis.Great drinks! We waited for our waitress to return but then saw her leave the restaurant! Really?! The bartender then came back to take our order. He suggested the shrimp green curry, which I was reluctant to try, but it was phenomenal! I've never had curry before and was surprised of the good flavor. My wife ordered the chicken pad thai and she was not pleased at all. It was oily, bland and served with old beansprouts. We boxed everything to go and then left with mixed feelings. Maybe next time I'll order my food to go and grab a drink from the bar. read more

My friend and I were staying at Lake Lanier Islands but wanted to venture out for dinner. We love Thai food and we're so happy Tani Thai was conveniently located and had a great looking menu. We really enjoyed the spacious inside, our waiter and mostly the food. Highly recommend for a casual and tasty dinner! read more

My family and I are regulars! Excellent variety and quality.... I've never had a meal I didn't like dine in or take out. There are weeks I'll get take out multiple times and never get sick of it. read more

Restaurant and ambience was good. Place was clean , friendly staff. I had the Thai tea - excellent Spring rolls - excellent Pad Thai - not good or tasty. No spice to it, and I've been to authentic Thai and I've never had onions cooked throughout. I should have known something was off when I wasn't asked what spice level I wanted. I can't comment on other dishes because I did not have them. read more

Such good food!!!!!! Holds up well through takeout, too. Love this place. Wish it was open sundays!

We visited Tani Thai for the second time a few weeks ago, and both of those visits get 5 stars from me. On our most recent visit, we started with some summer special cocktails and steamed dumplings. The dumplings were flavorful, not dry, and the sauce was great. On our first visit I had curry (which I highly recommend), so I had to try the Pad Thai this time. My only disappointment was that I ordered it a 3 out of 5 spiciness, which turned out not to be enough. But here's a pro tip: ask and they will bring you the tray of spices! You can make your dish to your desired spiciness. My husband got the Royal Duck and let me try some, and I thought they did really well cooking the duck perfectly. Ginger cherry wine sauce was an excellent complement to the duck. With an appetizer and two entrees, we had food left over and went home happy! Friendly service and a great location topped off our evening. It seemed a little slow for a Friday night so I'm hoping people start to realize what a gem this is. read more

So glad we have a good local Thai place!! The food has always been outstanding to me.

Oh... My....Gosh! Best .... Thia food ever! Try the Shrimp and Chicken Garlic wine sauce is the Bomb!

This restaurant is really nice and has great food. I came here with my family and my kids love it! I would definitely recommend the garden chicken and the Thai fried rice. The Thai tea is also great for the hot summer days. read more

Ordered a Pad Thai and I got extremely sick for a whole day. Don't want to put exact words of what happened to me but I was sick with everything that you can possibly think of that comes with stomach pain. I've eaten here before but don't know what happened this time. read more

Both times dining here were great...I love duck and panang. So, the Panang Duck was a treat.

The most consistent and delicious Asian cuisine in the area. No matter what I've order, it always tastes fresh.

Omg....the coconut cake is to die for! I eat the green curry as a soup....level 4! Amazing!

NOT OUR CUP OF TEA! My husband and I were really craving Singapore rice noodles but could not find a specific restaurant in the immediate area. He located this option via Yelp and despite their five star reviews, their menu appeared a bit limited. We gave it a try anyway. It is located on Main Street in the downtown area of Buford and parking was super easy and convenient. When we entered we were immediately greeted and offered seating at a table or booth. We love a comfortable and widespread booth so we chose accordingly. The booth was nice and spacious but when it comes to dining furniture, it should be an easy to clean material such as wood or leather and not fabric that holds obvious stains. The covering on the table should have been made of fabric instead of paper. That simple white menu, (one page front and back), was disappointing. I like a full service menu with color, descriptions and photos of the food being offered. We both ordered noodle dishes, I chose a wide seasoned noodle with mixed vegetables and chicken while my husband chose a drunken noodle dish with chicken, both light on the salt. In the meantime, our spring roll appetizer arrived. The presentation was very nice but the rolls wrapped very tight, were bland and dry. Although they were served with a dipping sauce, I prefer to only use sauce as an option and not a necessity. When we received our dishes, everything looked delicious but I noticed that while eating I was very thirsty and couldn't get enough water. Even though, the noodles did not taste salty, they had enough sodium to stimulate thirst and this is a problem because you only get a five ounce water goblet and no pitcher on the table. This assures you of frequent visits by the waiter for refills. Now let me just say this: We had a great waiter and great service. Our waiter was as unobtrusive as he could be but if you are trying to have a conversation while constantly needing your glass filled, this can be problematic. My husband really enjoyed his dish although it was not spicy enough. The chicken in my dish was over-cooked and dry. While my husband doesn't mind dry chicken, I like mine moist and succulent especially when it is being added to a stir-fry. My assessment of this situation is that this restaurant is striving to be at a certain level but is just not there yet. How in the world do you have such beautiful flatware, but cover your tables with thin paper? Normally, we leave with half of our food uneaten or feeling quite satisfied. However, after this visit, my husband had to actually stop for a burger and fries on the way home and I of course had to get a frosty because I was still tasting the sodium and needing to quiet my thirst. Ugghh! Oh well, now we know! read more

We went to Tani Thai for dinner on Saturday night and the place was busy with Prom diners, families, and people getting a bite before going to the club next door. There were 4 in our party and some of them had drinks at the bar while we waited for a table. The drinks were perfectly prepared according to those that had them. We ordered 4 appetizers to split with table - Spring Rolls (crisp and flavorful), Calamari (expertly prepared with a delicious sauce); Larb with cabbage wraps (oh so good); and Steamed Dumplings (perfectly prepared and delicious). After finishing these we ordered main courses - Green Curry Chicken, Masama Shrimp, Pad Thai Chicken, and Basil Crispy Duck. Every bite and dish was better than the next. The service was efficient and staff responsive. The whole experience was incredible and we will definitely be going back. read more

This place deserves zero stars. Complete trash. They got our food wrong then over charged us and argued about it. if that's not bad enough after fixing the check the hostess tossed it at us. Unbelievable! Do not waste time or money!!! read more

Probably the best Thai restaurant I've ever been to! The food was great and the service was spot on! Great job everyone!

It's worth 5 stars for sure! I got the chili glazed chicken, and my boyfriend got the mahi mahi, both with fried rice. We shared the shrimp cones and cheese rolls! It's good to note the entrees are good portions too. Also- I got the pomegranate martini and he got a gin and tonic. Overall really great, prompting me to write a review. We were talking about coming back before we got the check. read more

I'm glad they just opened a good Thai place close by. Now I don't have to drive too far for good Thai food. We should have took pics but the food was so good that we ate almost all of it before remembering to take pics. We ordered the dumplings, chicken red curry, pad thai, and pad see eew. We should have saved room for desserts but was too stuffed. read more

Thai so good, it's worth the drive to Buford. Steamed dumplings, fried dumplings, spring rolls, Royal Duck, and Pad Se Ew we're all very fresh and delicious. A decent beer and wine list. Several friends had the curry and all raved over it. Very good service. Will be back. read more

Order the Pad Thai and Red Curry. The curry was wonderful. All the flavors were there. The Pad Thai was decent, a little sweeter than I prefer. Service was good. Prices were decent/average. read more

First, m let me say that my husband and I have been trying to find the perfect Thai restaurant since we moved to Buford last year. We have tried several different places in the Atlanta area and have been less than impressed. Then last weekend while driving home from a steakhouse family dinner, we spotted this restaurant. Tonight we had chicken satay, shrimp spring rolls, beef with garlic sauce, and red curry. Everything was wonderful. We will be returning for our next date night. My only regret is that I have no photos of the food to share. We ate it all! read more

If you are looking for authentic Thai food this is definitely not the place to get it. Well known dishes such as Pad Thai and the various coconut curries are present but you are not going to get the traditional dishes like Larb, Nam Tok or Som Tam. This restaurant is more Americanized. Big disappointment when you come on a Thursday to a half empty restaurant but you still have to wait 30 minutes for your server to take your order and then another hour before your food arrives. The atmosphere was decent for a sit down restaurant for dinner... the dim lighting really sets the tone. But seating was horrible. The booth side of the table felt as if you were sitting on a park bench. The cushioning was very thin and the back board was definitely a piece of cheaply upholstered plywood. Definitely not a place to relax. On to the food. If I'm going to pay $20 for Pad Thai I would expect a family size portion worth sharing with my date. When selecting the spice level between 1-5 you probably want to go a full five to get any kind of heat. A level three was wimpy. I also sampled the garlic scallops. The waitress couldn't even explain the sauce when inquired before ordering. Even though the menu says shiitake mushrooms... be prepared to be overwhelmed with chucks of squash, cabbage and broccoli before finding any mushrooms. If I wanted a Chinese flavored dish I would have went to a Chinese restaurant. I don't want my eating spoon to be a giant sized serving spoon and I would expect chopsticks to be included in the place setting rather than cheap disposable wooden takeout sticks received upon request! If they're trying to be an upscale Thai restaurant this place is going about it all wrong. There are enough upscale dining spots on the same block... I would almost hope and expect Tani Thai to fail. read more

Excellent Thai and atmosphere! The chicken pad Thai, green curry and coconut soup were really good.

It's great to have such a delicious Thai place in downtown Buford! Great for date nights!

That was the best meal I ever had. The Panang Duck was phenomenal! We've been to other Thai restaurants before but this was a gem. It's got a cozy atmosphere with lots of space. Perfect for maintaining social distance. Staff had great recommendations and this will definitely be in our restaurant rotation from now on read more

Called in an order for pick up today and was not disappointed! I was really craving red curry, so how excited was I to see that this place opened?! The woman who answered the phone was sweet and courteous. I ordered the cheese rolls and the spicy red curry. The cheese rolls were so delicious! The red curry was the best one I've ever had, so creamy and on point. I can not say enough how great this place is! I can not wait to go back! read more

We happened upon this downtown Buford Restaurant while trying to decide on something besides Mexican. Decided to give it a try since we love Thai food. We loved our entrees of Thai Basil Mahi Mahi and Salmon in a Green curry sauce. For dessert we chose the Mango and Sweet sticky rice. We added a side of ice cream since I like to pair sweet sticky rice with ice cream. We appreciated the ambience and the service was good. read more

not gonna lie...the pad thai and drunken noodles went crazy. would recommend. ambience was on point

This place was horrible. All of the food tasted off and i got sick after an hour of eating it. I wont be back.

I was very excited to see Tani Thai restaurant newly listed on my Ubereats. Chose Honey Chicken, Tiger Tears, and Fried Chicken Dumplings appetizer. Honey Chicken dish had wonderful crunchy vegetables but the chicken was too chewy thin strips and not much honey flavor. The Tiger Tears has beautiful sliver of steak strips with fresh bright cilantro leaves and slivers of carrot hair. Fried Chicken Dumplings were hard crunchy wontons but gobbled these down. Had a few issues with ordering from Tani Thai Ubereats : #1: Tried to order lunch 2:00PM even though site closes at 2:30PM #2: I had to wait three hours later till 5:00pm to place order #3: Prices were higher yet dishes seems to be lunch servings highly doubt I will order dinner time again #4: Only received one container of white rice for two meals. No napkins or utensils. Worth ordering again as the food was very good, fresh, and delicious but only if it lets me place order lunchtime! Don't want to pay dinner prices if I can order same items during lunch. read more
