    Ambiance is 10 on 10. It's spa like, very elegant and soothing. Both indoor and patio are very well maintained and calming. We ordered veggie spring rolls, pad Kee mow and basil fried rice. Everything tasted so good with great service. All they miss is a massage room ;) will definitely add this to my regular list

    Green Curry Grouper
    Paul Yelp N.

    Best Father's Day restaurant experience ever! Thai Emerald delivered on all 3 of my key eating requirements: food quality; value; and overall enjoyment. I give extra bonus points for the deliciousness and authenticity. I had the Green Curry Grouper with a "hot" level of spiciness. About the equivalent of a fresh grilled jalapeño eaten straight. See picture.

    Crab Rangoon ($7.95)
    Kristen T.

    Been there - and so glad we Thai'd that! Our realtor recommended we try Thai Emerald and I am so glad we listened. Thai Emerald is the cutest little spot, both intimate and welcoming. There is an amazing little patio adorned with string lights. I am a sucker for some string lights. We ordered take-out the first night we were staying in our new home right down the street. It made for the perfect first meal! We called to order and were quoted about 35 minutes. It ended up taking closer to an hour so we waited quite a bit after arriving. The food was breathtaking and well worth the wait. Thai is one of those cuisines that is on the pricier side and Thai Emerald is no exception. You get what you pay for, though, and this stuff is really divine! Money well spent I assure you! We ordered the following: Crab Rangoon ($7.95) Emerald Special ($21.95) Pad Thai - Shrimp ($18.95) Panang Curry - Tofu ($16.95) The crab rangoon were tasty. Not the sweetest of the ones I have had and ate a bit on the greasy side, but they were still good! The emerald special was awesome. I wanted to try both the pineapple fried rice and the cashew nut chicken so this was the perfect dish. It is a sweet dish (which I like) and really lovely. It is different from what you would normally get with the addition of the curry powder. The pad thai was out of this world. Hubs and I both agreed this is probably the best pad thai we have ever had. We got a bunch of things to share and ended up fighting over the pad thai. The panang curry was also delightful and served with steamed rice. I loved the texture and cook on the tofu and the flavor was just what I know and love about panang curry. We will get this over and over again. This is a great dish to warm your soul! We can't wait to visit Thai Emerald again soon. There are so many other dishes we want to try as we continue to order our favorites! So happy to have found our Thai spot so quickly!

    Red curry with tofu
    Jessica L.

    Came here on a Sunday night with my friend. It was around 7pm and they were very busy. We were able to get a table out on the patio, which is a cute space. I got the red curry with soft tofu, my friend got the green curry with tofu as well, she also got the crispy tofu appetizer and the coconut chicken soup. I got a bite of her tofu appetizer and it was pretty good. My red curry was very flavorful, the only thing I wish was different is more rice.

    Roberto's is a hidden secret in the downtown Woodstock area. Located slightly off the beaten path,…read moreRoberto's boasts a beautifully clean atmosphere that evokes a sense of being somewhere far more coastal. The raw bar is front and center, and there are several great options for oysters. There is a social hour option for chef's choice oysters, I believe it was a dozen for $24. I would've loved to indulge, but my friends were not so inclined towards raw oysters. We enjoyed the peel-and-eat shrimp and the blue crab fritters as appetizers. Both had phenomenal flavor, but the portions left a bit to be desired. For my main course, I tried the low country boil as I always love to see an elevated take on a messy classic. The spices were a bit underwhelming for my liking, but everything was cooked very well. I tried some of my friend's redfish, and it was clearly the star of the show. There was a wonderful textural balance between the soft pillowiness of the fish and the crispy exterior. The downside for me was the service. We had a difficult time tracking down our server, and when we alerted another member of the staff that we needed something, there was no attempt to resolve the issue expeditiously. We had to wait another 10 minutes before flagging down our original server. We were dining close to the lunch/dinner shift, so I'm willing to give them the grace that it was a fluke and not a habit. I would love to give Roberto's another try someday, the menu has a great variety, and the ambiance is hard to compete with.

We have visited this location previously and had a great experience with both the service and food, so we were looking forward to returning while visiting the area. When we arrived, we noticed there was a large party being hosted in the private/back party room, which was nice to see that the restaurant is able to accommodate larger gatherings. Our waitress was also very kind, friendly, and attentive, and we appreciated her customer service throughout our visit. There were, however, a few concerns we wanted to bring to management's attention. First, we noticed several desserts sitting off to the side behind us that appeared to be uncovered. We are not sure whether these desserts had been prepared in advance for customers to order, but if that was the case, we strongly recommend that they remain properly covered or protected at all times. With customers and employees walking nearby and insects potentially flying around the restaurant, leaving uncovered desserts exposed does not appear sanitary or appropriate for food service. We also experienced an issue with the temperature of some of our food. Two of our seafood dishes arrived only semi-warm rather than hot and fresh. We ordered the Pappadeaux Platter with stuffed shrimp and fries. Unfortunately, the fries were cold, and the seafood on top was only lukewarm. This was particularly disappointing because we were looking forward to enjoying the seafood while visiting the restaurant. I ordered the grilled chicken with mashed potatoes and broccolini, and my entire meal arrived hot. Because my meal was served at the appropriate temperature, we were confused as to why the other dishes were not. We understand that different items may require different preparation times, but customers should receive their complete meals hot and fresh. Our suggestion would be to coordinate the timing of the food preparation, particularly with items such as fries, so that they are prepared as close to serving time as possible. Food should ideally arrive at the table hot and fresh rather than having one component become cold while waiting for the other items to be completed. We did bring the issue to our waitress's attention, and she was very accommodating and provided a $12 credit toward the fries. We appreciated her effort to address the concern. However, the credit did not change the fact that my husband and daughter were unable to fully enjoy their seafood dishes because the food was not served hot. We are sharing this feedback because we have visited this location before and had a great experience, so we know the restaurant is capable of providing excellent food and service. Our goal is simply to bring these concerns to management's attention so they can be reviewed with the appropriate staff. Thank you for taking the time to review our experience. We hope our feedback is helpful and that future visits will provide the quality of food, presentation, sanitation, and service that we experienced during our previous visit.

As we pulled in front of the restaurant, I was very impressed by the modern exterior - very nice! Parking is a breeze - you can valet or self-park in the back of the restaurant. We had reservations but arrived a little early and had to wait about 5-10 minutes to be seated - not a huge deal for a busy Saturday night. Once we got to our table, we had an amazing experience. The table was sprinkled with rose petals and a card wishing us a Happy Anniversary. Our server, Tony, came promptly to take our order and noted our food allergies and restrictions. Our first course was the seafood tower, which I was able to customize with more shrimp since I'm allergic to oysters. Second, we had the lobster bisque and the burrata & beet salad. Both were divine! For the main course, I had the scallops while my husband had the filet medallions Oscar style, which comes with asparagus. We also ordered two additional sides for sharing - the crab fried rice and truffle mac. You honestly can't go wrong with either dish! We loved our meal but my husband wasn't crazy about the steak. We let our server know and the restaurant accommodated us accordingly. The service here is top notch and we cannot wait to dine here in the near future.

I had tried a seafood boil from here a while back, and the sauce wasn't as good as what I've had from a local competitor. However, my boyfriend insisted that we give it another try, so we ended up ordering the Kickin Combo #1, along with a dozen raw oysters and an order of fried oysters and fries. The raw oysters came out first. I didn't want any, so they were for my boyfriend. Immediately after trying the first one, he wasn't happy with it. He said it tasted fishy but decided to give another one a try, thinking maybe the first was just a bad one. Unfortunately, the second wasn't any better, so he sent them back. Next came the fried food, which is never a miss. I absolutely love the fried oysters here. Then the seafood boil arrived, and at first glance, it looked promising. The seafood appeared large and fresh. I grabbed a shrimp first, sucked the head, and immediately noticed a strong fishy taste. I then dipped the shrimp into the sauce, but the sauce was watery and lacked flavor. I tried a few of the other items in the boil, including a mussel, but the texture was extremely chewy. Between my boyfriend and me, we ate a total of about ten or less things from the boil before deciding we were done. Unfortunately, it was not good whatsoever, and I was extremely disappointed. I asked if there was anything that could be done, and the manager offered to reheat it. I explained that the temperature wasn't the issue but the fishy taste and the texture of the seafood. He then said there wasn't anything else he could do besides take 20% off the bill. While I appreciated the discount, it was still disappointing given how much of the meal we were unable to eat. The service itself was good, and the ambiance was chill, especially since we went during dinner. Unfortunately, though, the food quality of the seafood boil and raw oysters overshadowed the positives for me. All in all, I won't be returning.
