My friend wanted to eat something at the Thai restaurant so we stopped at Thai Smile restaurant. First thing I wanted was the calamari. The breading absolutely stuck to the calamari. That is impressive to me. The soup and salad came next and their Chicken and Rice soup was shockingly good. It looked like wonton but it had nugget consistency of chicken in it which I was again impressed. I order the Green Chili sauce dish with chicken, bamboo shoots and peppers with zucchini in coconut milk. Very good! Overall, for a small side restaurant in the downtown area, I was shockingly impressed. My friend and I will definitely return here and bring family too. read more

My husband and I travelled from Rincon, GA to Waycross, GA to see the lights at the Okefenokee Swamp Park. Before heading home, we decided to to drop in Thai Smile for a bite to eat. The food was excellent. The menu offered a variety of choices. The BEST part of the meal, however, was Samantha! She never missed a beat. Her service was prompt, and super friendly. We can't wait to have an excuse to drive all the way to Waycross so we can eat here again. read more

The food is excellent. We ordered the assorted appetizer, drunken noodles, panang curry, pad Thai, pineapple fried rice. It was all fresh and very tasty. The Thai tea is one of the best I've had. It's difficult to find good authentic Thai food and this is it! The prices are reasonable and the portions are huge. Will definitely eat here again. read more

Had lunch here on Wednesday November 17th 2021. Food was good and plentiful. Problems were waitress NEVER smiled and was not friendly and loud rock music was continually playing.

Great little place that sells big food. A real gem in the middle of a small town. Love the owners.

Lovely atmosphere and each plate is a work of art, both to the eye and the tastebuds. The staff are friendly and make you feel at home. I recommend the pork house fried rice and LasVegas roll. read more

I am a flight attendant and I've traveled extensively around the US and Europe..This place was the best!!!

The only Thai restaurant in this little town. I love it! My son wanted to try Thai and this place made it possible. My son tried Thai Fried Rice with Beef and he loves it. I had him try the Assorted Appetizer that had spring rolls, crab Rangoon, and so forth. He likes those too! I also got him dessert, fried bananas with coconut ice cream. He loves that too. It's a little pricey but it's good quality and you get what you paid for. read more

Ate here on our way through to the Okefenokee Swamp, first time eating Thai food. We stopped here because of the rave reviews and they're right. I can't say enough good things about this place! The fried rice is the best I've ever had. After eating their hand breaded chicken, I'll never be able to eat it anywhere else without comparing. The cook really pays attention to detail, and you can tell they use only the best ingredients. Best meal we've had in awhile, really beats the chain restaurants. read more

This place food is outstanding! I was pretty skeptical at first since I am a picky eater but I was truly amazed at how good the food was.....i will defiantly come back when I visit folkston... read more

The food is wonderful. Best miso soup and ginger salad ever. Waiting on our sushi rolls now but I had to go ahead and give them a great review. Great food and service read more

Friends suggested we share a meal here last Friday evening and I'm glad we did. The owners and staff were welcoming and service was good. Between the four of us we had a Bento Box with chicken sushi and Pad Thai; curry; ginger chicken; and tuna tartar. The quality and tastiness the dishes ranged from 3-5 stars with the curry and garlic chicken the best and the sushi barely earning 3 stars. The servings are generous and pricing very reasonable. Considering the dining options in Folkston this place rocks. read more

The tip to try the drunken noodle and crispy chicken was right-on point., What a great meal. We ate there each day we were in Folkston. The service was outstanding. Great iced tea. The food was so good. We had sushi, the drunken noodle, pineapple friend rice and all were very good. I know you would not think of a town like this to serve Thai food but it was outstanding. read more

Great little place for tasty authentic Thai food. Loved the Drunken Noodles we had today. Very reasonable prices, friendly service.

Good food and great service. They have sushi, pho and Thai dishes.

Absolutely AMAZING dining experience, only wish we lived closer, as we would be REGULAR customers. My group order the Thai Basil, Pad See Wei, another wonderful entree, some type of spring roll, and the Tropical Island desert. Oh my goodness...it was DELICIOUS!!! The ingredients were garden fresh and the flavors were INCREDIBLE!!! The customer service was superb and welcoming, the owner met us outside to greet us and took us to our table. We went for a brief walk after dinner to check out the trains, and he again met us outside to make sure we had everything we needed for the road. Including drink refills. The wait staff was also very prompt and courteous. Overall an excellent experience and we hope to visit again sometime soon! read more

A friend who lives in Hilliard recommended this restaurant when friends visited from out of town and stayed in Callahan. All of us loved the food, the service and the prices. It is a quaint place but is definitely worth the drive. The Phad Thai was flavorful, the shrimp was cooked just right and the service was great. Will return. read more

Awesome place! Chef owner Sam is out visiting customers when slow beer and wine. Sushi bar. 5 Platinum Stars!!!! JJ.

It is to my understanding that the people who used to run the place went to Waycross to open the new restaurant. The Folkston location has gone downhill. I normally don't write reviews but this used to be my favorite restaurant. I would rave about it. The service used to be so good that I would tip well over 50%. The open sign was off, the service was bad, took much longer than usual (despite me being the only customer), and the food has changed. The menu is not followed if I order a dish that comes with broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers I get a dish with tomato, pineapple, and mushrooms or carrot, zucchini, and mushroom. It's as if they just throw in whatever vegetables they can find. This has happened the last 3 times I've been here. The portions are smaller, you no longer get soup and dumpling with your meal, and the sushi was just bad. I've never had bad sushi until today. Mostly rice. My noodles and tofu were burnt and when I walked in there was a baby (child of an employee) who was in the dining room naked from the waist down crawling on the tables. My waitress left the building for 15 minutes and I was without water. I hope the owners get back over there and get things back in order. Unfortunately I won't be going back. read more
