This place is bomb. With really great service. Be warned, they have true 1-5 Thai spice levels. I can handle a two but I'll probably go 1 next time and add it in as I go. I love the heat and their crispy duck is amazing in any dish. read more

Consistently great service and tasty food! Stopped in on a weekend and wasn't too busy. This place has a lot of great seating and Kim took care of our table and was awesome! Lychee Martini was refreshing and delicious. Recommend! Green curry with chicken was perfect on a cold day. Came with white rice and we always ask for small bowls because it's so much better to eat it almost like a soup. Lots of Greta veggies in it. Pad See Ew with beef was perfect. Not greasy, and very flavorful. Great prices of fresh veggies in it and generous portion. All in all, really great food at a good price. read more

I'll start by saying the receptionist didn't take her AirPods out while she greeted us and sat us, which was probably the first indicator of what was to come. We came in on a Saturday around 12:15, and didn't leave until 2 - and that's mostly because our waitress only came by a couple of times. The food took only twenty minutes to come out, so it was more so the service that was causing the lag. It wasn't super busy with maybe a couple of tables in our section filled. The food was four out of five stars - flavorful, fresh, delicious. I recommend the crab fried rice. I wanted to love this place but unfortunately with the service lacking, we probably won't be back. read more

There is a lot to love about Thai Samurai in Bellevue which took over the former Lemongrass space. The moment you walk in, the bright open room feels familiar with plenty of booths so you can be seated quickly. The service is fast and extremely attentive, but the food is what really makes this place shine. Everything comes out fresh with a focus on presentation. Our curry arrived in a metal serving dish set over a small gas flame to keep it warm which was such a thoughtful touch. The drunken noodles were spicy, rich and deeply satisfying with those wide flat noodles cooked exactly the way you want them. They also offer brown rice in generous portions which I appreciated. Every dish was full of bold seasoning with just the right amount of red chili heat. They are open late for Bellevue, closing at 10pm on Fridays and Saturdays which makes it a perfect spot to unwind with friends after a long work week. I am so glad Thai Samurai is in the neighborhood. A wonderful addition to the area. read more

I love this place for their Thai food and sushi. Bellevue is lucky to have a good Thai place and not just another place with bar food. Good cocktails too. read more

My favorite Thai in Nashville! I've tried several others and all were bland and disappointing. Disclaimer: I like my Thai food hot. Sweating and nose runningly hot. You have to order it hot to get this result (it's Tennessee .. they don't really do spicy or exotic here) but this is the best I've found by far. I love the Panag curry, dumplings, and all the noodle dishes. I've only had takeout or delivery, both are fast! read more

Thai Samurai - Panang curry - Thai Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

The place is nice and clean. Weird blue seating but that's no big deal. The waiter was awesome and sweet. The meal came with soup and salad. It was great ! Then I got the green curry chicken and it was excellent! One of the better ones in town! Happily surprised and it came out very quick. I had a water. The total with too was 21 dollars. Not bad really. I'll go back for sure. The decor is the only reason I can't give it a 5. It felt kind of like a diner. But that don't change the way it tastes in your mouth. read more

Thai Samurai is fairly basic. I'd never usually choose a place that didn't focus on just one cuisine, though this was fine for lunch. I wanted the pad see ew, but though the menu states Chinese broccoli, pictures show otherwise, along with carrots. That's not pad see ew, so I passed. I went with a bento box, with a tofu vegetable stir fry, tempura, and gyoza. It hit the spot for lunch. Salad was unimpressive, but I liked the miso soup. Service was good. This place isn't fancy but it's not a bad choice when in the area. read more

They are dishonest. I ordered basil noodles that were supposed to be a $17 dish then found a three dollar a la carte charge for the noodles that were supposed to be included in the dish. They will keep their ill-gotten 3 bucks, but I will never dine with them again, and if you don't want to be cheated, I hope you avoid eating there as well. read more

Stopped in on a date night up in the area. Pricing was very high for the food and service was meh at best. Took a while for food and it wasn't busy. Ambiance was traditional strip mall setting which I would not go back to - i'd opt for a nicer restaurant and better prices considering. read more

Excellent original Thai food! Nice, pleasant atmosphere good waiters! Always like going there easy to get in and out and the food is always the best!!! read more

The food was delicious. To the reviews commenting on price--it's on par, if not slightly under, the expected cost for basic Thai food. And this place does have fantastic service as well as ambiance. While they have a large menu, it doesn't feel overwhelming. It was my first time here and the food came out fast. Next time I go, I'm getting hot tea afterwards! read more

Thai Samurai - Pad see ew - Thai Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Still a good spot for Thai food. As inflation has taken its toll, this place has definitely outpaced the rest of the economy. They recently changed their name and have raised their lunch prices by 50+% in the last few years. Not nearly the good deal it used to be, but still good food. read more

If you have check out Thai Samurai location... you need too? Go get you some amazing sushi and traditional Thai foods.

The food was INCREDIBLE. We got Pad kee Mao level 3 spice, fried rice for the kids and mango sticky rice for dessert. Portions were larger than expected, the food was full of flavor, perfect balance of spice and flavor (the only thing i would add to the pad kee mao are cherry tomatoes to give another texture and burst of flavor). The service was average, the people were kind but nothing really noteworthy. The inside is very clean and organized, comfortable and pleasant. read more

This location is now a Thai Samurai, but we loved it even when it was still Lemongrass! Since it has become a Thai Samurai, I feel like the portions have gotten more generous, and there have been more vegetables in their noodle dishes. Definitely a win-win! They offer both Thai and Japanese food here, and we have enjoyed all of their dishes. We of course always get pad Thai and pad see ew, but recently we got their bento with teriyaki chicken. It was magnificent, and the chicken was flavorful and juicy. I also really enjoy their red curry. They use real coconut milk in everything, and it makes their stews and soups so decadent! Parking is your standard strip mall lot. It can get busy around dining times, but it's manageable! New decor is super fun, and they do online reservations if you need one. read more

I ordered sweet & sour chicken, but the pineapple was put in a different person's order. My order included a foreign substance that they decided was a bit of lobster shell, but it was about the size & shape of an artificial fingernail. The service was very slow. The restaurant seemed relatively clean. They did give us a 10% credit on our bill for mixing up our orders. read more

After trying lemongrass again, I have completely changed my opinion. I am positive I had just experienced an off day. Now, I can say this is one of my favorite Thai spots. I have tried other Tom Khas and Chicken Larb in and around Nashville and none really compare to this place. They have perfected the flavors and there is a reason this place got a face lift. People love this spot. They serve their food with love and care. The servers here are all very sweet. I personally love and can recommend any of their noodle dishes along with the starters mentioned above. Anytime my friends order sushi they are also happy with their food. read more

Loved this place! My 1 year old was a bit fussy and the staff was so kind and offered her orange slices right away! The service was quick and food was good. My daughter got California rolls and potstickers- pretty straight forward and good. My husband got Drunken Noodles with Beef and loved it! The portion could feed 2 people easily. I forgot which sushi roll I got, however wanted ti say they are a good portion size for the price. Overall, the Japanese/Thai options are nice to have. I'd come here again to try more dishes. read more

The service was outstanding! They were attentive and kind. I got the chicken teriyaki and my husband got the dumplings and tuna sushi. The teriyaki was ok.

Cutest little restaurant with absolutely delicious, flavorful food! It's small, quaint and we didn't have to wait for a table! I don't think they take reservations? Perfect meal before seeing The Little River band at the symphony. Easy parking and we left our car in the parking lot, took a Uber to the symphany, came back to pick up the car without any hassle! The Old Fashion drink was not good and the service was slow but the good food made up for these flaws. The prices are good and the portions nice. Definitely will go back! read more

Fantastic Tom Kha soup and tempura shrimp roll. Spring rolls were a bit too oily, but I had an enjoyable meal with a friend. The menu is MASSIVE so it took us quite a while to decide what we wanted and service was a bit hit or miss with 2 different servers asking us if we were ready multiple times within 5 minutes of being seated but when we actually were ready and had put the menus down it took a good 15 minutes for someone to come take our orders and even longer to get the check when we were done. They did get busier after we arrived so I will chalk it up to that and not hold it against them. I will definitely be back. read more

good service but do NOT order the mango sticky rice. I had no idea such a delicious thing could be this bad

So the mango sticky rice desert! It's awesome and worth the trip. Service is a bit chaos but they share and everyone takes care of you. One down side is focus. It's four restaurants in one so their food is good but could be great if they chose one route to take. Think Cheesecake Factory of Asian food. read more

Incredible service and wonderful dining experience! Highly recommend coming here to celebrate a special occasion. Even with such a big party, the food came out pretty quickly. My friend celebrated his birthday here and we had a table of 12. Lemongrass Sushi & Thai was incredibly accommodating with the table reservation, they even had holiday and birthday napkins for our table. They kindly stored a cake for us with NO cake fee (you'd be surprised how many restaurants charge a cake fee) and when they brought of the cake, they turned the Happy Birthday song on in the entire restaurant. The owner and waiters all came over to sing and wish my friend a happy birthday. They are known for their fried Bellevue Sushi roll and almost everyone at the table got it. It was phenomenal. Stuffed roll. Beef drunken noodles were great and flavorful. Tom kha lemongrass soup was very creamy and good portions of protein. read more

My wife and I went to Lemongrass sight unseen because we were told they were a "great Thai restaurant." As soon as we were seated we realized they had a sushi prep counter, which was a bad omen. I'm of the opinion that if a restaurant offers food from multiple cultures on one continent, it usually means said restaurant is pandering to the lowest common denominator. In the case of Lemongrass, this theory 100% holds up. The food was inauthentic and bland. I felt like I was eating a Lean Cuisine or at a mall food court. I am a person who usually clears his plate and always gets a to go box when I do not, but I made it half way through my meal before I had simply lost interest in eating. My wife and I both left half of each of meals uneaten. I will say the one silver lining of this restaurant is their customer service. They were friendly, professional and attentive. Very nice people. read more

I really liked dining here by myself... It's such a quiet and clean environment, with white table cloths and candles on each table... The food was delicious, and the presentation when it was delivered was impressive... No complaint at all about them serving such large portions...Just plan on taking some home or sharing while you're there... The inly reason it didn't get 5 stars is because i had to hunt down my waitress several times because she wasn't waiting on me... I required several refills of water, eating that kind of food... And, i needed a few other things... They kind of made me feel like i was out of line requesting things because they kind of had an attitude when i did... I have to travel out of my normal range to get here, but it's worth the trip... I'll contjnie to dine here time and tome again, just wish service was with a smile... To add, the mints you get with the check are so good... I even went online to see if I could purchase them in bulk, and I sure can. read more

Thai Samurai - Basil Stir-Fried - Thai Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

An unexpected gem, chosen last minute as some friends stopped by on a road trip. My pal from New York even found it well up in his standards. Although we arrived late on a week night, staff worked hard to make us feel comfortable and relaxed. The chicken pad Thai was very good, the massaman curry excellent, and the basil duck heavenly. Pricier than most local chains, modest ambiance, but well worth it. Ease of finding with Siri: B- -- but not necessarily their fault. Ladies room: B++, though the handicap seat is lower than is easy for people with bad knees. Still would recommend, especially if you like to share dishes. read more

We are obsessed with Lemongrass!!! Their pad that, parang curry, and all sushi's are 10 out of 10. Cannot recommend enough for takeout or sit down. The staff is so warm and welcoming and always goes above and beyond. Oh and try the spicy edamame read more

Very disappointing experience. I went in to this restaurant on Friday night at dinner time to pick up the order I had placed online. There were about three orders to go on the counter, and there were four tables with customers. I ordered the Spring Rolls for $4.50, Bellevue Thai Fried Rice for $13.95, and the Pad Thai for $14.95. I also included a 10% tip. Excluding tax, my total came to $36.74. My critique, including their description of each dish which I copied and pasted, follows. 1. Spring Rolls - Crispy Spring Rolls filled with shredded vegetables, bean thread noodles, and deep fried served with our sweet & sour house sauce. The two small spring rolls were so thoroughly greasy as to be inedible. They tasted frozen, because they were small and very uniform looking and had absorbed so much of the grease as frozen food tends to do when you deep fry it. I don't know for sure. But the level of greasiness was untenable. Yuck. 2. Bellevue Thai Fried Rice - Fried rice with eggs, your choice of meat, onions, basil, and bell peppers. The first thing I noticed was there was no sauce at all. I've never had food from a Thai restaurant that didn't have either some sauce on the food or some in the bottom of the dish. There were no eggs. And probably two small slivers of onion and two or three small slivers of Bell Peppers. The bulk of the meal was rice. It was dry because there was no sauce. And I've never had fried rice ever without scrambled eggs mixed throughout. Disappointing. 3. Pad Thai - The popular Noodles Lover Dish, stir-fried with thin rice noodles in brown sweet & sour sauce, along with eggs, bean sprouts, crushed peanuts on the side and top with green onions. Again, no sauce although it is specifically mentioned in the description. There were two small flakes of eggs. There also was not one sliver of a green onion to be found. The bulk of the meal was the rice noodles. One of my complaints besides the fact that aesthetically it's not very pleasing is when the pieces of meat are not cut relatively small. They should be bite-sized, because you're not going to be using a knife on it. I couldn't eat the pieces of chicken without cutting them up with a knife and fork because they were so large. It's not just for ease of eating the meal. It just doesn't look pretty. I don't write many negative reviews but after paying what I did with a 10% tip added, I wasn't going to let this one slide. I not only hope that future customers are aware of these issues, but honestly? Most of all, I hope the owner reads my review and steps up their game. It wouldn't take much to make all these dishes much better tasting (and visually appealing) than they currently are. read more
