I'm almost sad to give this place a one star. I was expecting to give them at least a 4 since all the other reviews were so great! It was my first time here and the service was horrible. Came for a business meeting with my BP, and we both ordered soup. I ordered first and wanted to clarify what was in it. He only put in hers and then when i asked for mine he said he didn't think i wanted any?? Thought i only wanted clarification, when i clearly stated let me start with that. Next he took our order which he got correct. The food was good. I will give them that. But after we got our food he never came back to check on us. And we NEVER received a Water Refill! And i drink a ton of water! I kept waiting for my ice to melt to take another sip. Smh Also in the beginning we both specifically stated we wanted the bill separate. He brought it together. When we asked to have him separate it he had an attitude. Someone else came and brought the bill. We placed our money in the folder and that gentleman came back to complete the transaction. When he came to bring back our change he wasn't friendly at all. He placed the folder on the table and impolitely said have a good day. Didn't ask about our service or hope you enjoyed, nothing. My Business partner asked a nearby waitress for the manager. Haven't received this poor of service in a while. That same gentleman who delivered the check returned. He said the manager isn't available but he can help. We expressed our distaste of service and mentioned the water and everything else we experienced. He did not apologize. His response was, "Would you like some more water?" Ummm.. seriously!? We are on our way out now. No we are good. And he claimed that he will express our experience to the manager. Which i highly doubt. This was my first and last time coming to this place. There was another waitress helping a table next to us. Her customer service was excellent! Wish we had her. Hopefully you have a better experience. read more

Top Spice - The Veggie Soup! Yumm - Thai Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

See all

Food is good. Quick service. Sometimes a little pricey for what it is. But the lunch specials are a win.

I came here tonight for dinner. This is hands down my favorite Thai restaurant. Never have a had a bad meal. Top spice, top quality,top taste. And the best part is there aren't far from me. For an appetizer I had the fried spring rolls, which I devoured before I could remember to get a photo of. For my entree I enjoyed the Spicy veggie rice without the egg and tofu. When ordered spicy, they ask you on a level of 1-10 how hot you want your food, anything 6 or above they cannot take back to the kitchen because it is considered Thai spicy. I ordered an 8 spicy. Which had a nice spicy level to eat, without being to hot and I could still enjoy my food. read more

Top Spice - Thai Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Vegan Friendly Review: I was feeling bad and in need of some vegetable soup. Top Spice is another restaurant within walking distance that I had not given a shot yet. If the soup is a sign, I know the rest of their food will be outstanding! I got two orders of the Tofu & Vegetable Soup which made me feel better within hours of taking it! I am ready to go back to Top Spice and some of their other options! read more

Top Spice - Thai Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

DELICIOUS! Came during lunch hour and my group ordered Thai iced teas, thai spring rolls, broccoli chicken, spicy basil chicken and spicy basil pork. Everything was delicious, truly 5 stars. And at a great value too - total came out to under $50 and that was for three people! Highly recommend & I look forward to returning. 1. Thai Iced Tea - $3.50 - Delicious and creamy. Not weak on flavor. 5 stars. 2. Thai Spring Rolls - $4.50 - Includes 2 rolls. Sooo good. Could have definitely eaten about 4 more of them myself. 3. Broccoli Chicken - $9.25 lunch portion - includes a choice of coconut soup or vegetable soup. Decided on the vegetable soup, which was just okay. The broccoli chicken was delicious but sweet. Think Chinese moo goo gai pan kinda flavor. 4. Spicy Basil Chicken - $9.25 lunch portion - chose the coconut soup with this one. The soup was tasty. THIS WAS SOOOO GOOD!!! The sauce is just phenomenal and it has the perfect amount of spice. I really enjoyed this! 5. Spicy Basil Pork - $9.25 lunch portion - same sauce as #4 and my friend reported that is was just as delicious! All lunch entrees came with a side of jasmine rice. The portions were very generous. I'm really happy with Top Spice!! read more

Delicious food was in the area decided to try it was tasty and I will be back! The vibe is cute inside too. Simple but vibes. Service was nice and kind I preferred to go and was pleased. I got the Malaysian Beef Skewers, Malaysian pancake with beef and onion and the mango sticky rice. read more

The restaurant has a nice dinner ambience, a bit dim lighting. My friend ordered a virgin pina colada, which was pretty tasty. We also ordered as an appetizer the Thai Spring rolls. They were tasty, but nothing special. They seemed to be thrown carelessly onto the plate, though, which not great presentation. I ordered Spicy Veggie and Tofu, which was nothing spectacular but it was tasty. However, it could have been spicier for me. My friend ordered the Pad Prik. She loves her food very spicy, so she asked for her chicken to be spicy. I guess the waiter doubted her so he asked if she wanted medium or normal spice level, and she said as spicy as you can make it. There was a bit of communication gap there I think, because I don't know if you can request to make dishes more spicy here (much less anywhere). Regardless, the dish was also not too spicy. I do understand there are people with more sensitive palates but I was slightly disappointed to have two "spicy" dishes that were not spicy at all. The aspect that ruined the dinner for me is how rushed I felt. It was a Saturday night around 8pm, and although pretty crowded I don't know what made the waiter compelled to make us feel that we had to leave as soon as we could. I appreciated the fast service in the beginning - appetizers came pretty timely as well as the dishes soon after. However, when it came time that we were finishing up our plates they came, ready to take the dishes when we were not done yet. We asked for a rice refill, and they refilled it quickly, of which I was appreciative. The next time they came back we asked for boxes for the rest of the meal. They did that very quickly, and although I can tell they were only trying to be efficient, to me it came off as trying to rush us out of there. However, when it came time to give us the checks they had forgotten about us so we ended up just paying at the front. Overall it was a nice dinner catch-up with a friend but I feel that the service could have a bit more polite and the food could have been spicier/more flavor. read more

Right out the gate... the server was less than inviting. Never smiled or gave any indication that she wanted to be where she was at the moment. Then we ordered... The soup, both vegetable and coconut was served room temp at best. When we informed the server, she stated that she could microwave it, but we declined. The tofu in my spicy veggie and tofu meal was definitely over cooked and lacking true flavor. The spicy fried rice with chicken was not good or fresh. We didn't received any refills on beverages. Needless to say, a significant portion of our meal was untouched. When asked if we needed take out containers, we said NO and explained why but it was of no concern to the server. Very bad experience!!! read more

Update 1/22/2020 - They still have good food and better service. I might've caught them too busy. I've called ahead 3x for lunch takeout met with professionalism and tasty hot food. Old Review --- Ambiance so nice once you walk inside the double doors. Good seating and it doesn't feel like you're in a plaza. I've tried the coconut soup, Pad Thai, Thai spring rolls and Thai tea. Dinner will cost $20 or so. Lunch would be around $8. Food is hot and great portion. They have a lunch menu everyday ending @ 3pm that I need to try. Flavorful. Markedmmm the area is Toco Hills, you be the judge of their lack of diversity around Emory University and hospital. read more

I wish I got a picture of my food! But it was absolutely tasty. I ordered the chicken satay for an appetizer, and spicy chicken basil fried rice for my entree. My entree had the perfect kick of spice I like in my food. The chicken satay was so juicy and the dipping sauce was unique but good as well. I had their Thai tea to drink and it was a little too sweet but bearable. The service was amazing and the staff was super friendly. Our food did not take long to come out. Everyone was properly spaced out as well. read more

Great food and great location at Toco Hills. I love the fried rice but my friends love the curry. Great servers and very calm atmosphere.

The food in this Thai restaurant is ok. The food we order was so sweet. I mean they put a lot of sugar. The Thai tea is ok. The place was nice and fancy. The price was a bit high. The food proportion was less. I mean it wasn't a lot. But it full me up. They don't even have a papaya salad. Me and my wife was looking forward to it. Overall it not bad. Just like any typical Thai restaurant. The server wasn't that attentive. Wasn't helpful recommending us any good food they have. read more

Top Spice consistently delivers some of the best Thai and beyond fare in Atlanta, and offers some interesting and delicious Asian specialities hard to find in other similar spots. We stopped in for a late dinner recently, and were immediately seated in their pleasantly decorated dining room. To drink, she started with a glass of white wine, whereas I had a fun and tasty lychee martini, just one of their numerous cocktail options. For starters, we split the crispy and not-at-all greasy fried tofu and vegetable spring rolls, both served with delicious dipping sauces. For our entrees, she went with the tried-and-true pad see-u with tofu, whereas I went for one of their Malaysian options, the Kari Sayur Campur, a curried vegetarian stew packed with vegetables and served in a clay pot alongside steamed rice. It was absolutely delectable, and had me scraping the pot for every last drop of spiced broth. The service was friendly and attentive, and made for a relaxed vibe. Top Spice is a superb choice for a meal that goes beyond classic Thai takeout. read more

With Buford Highway so close, Asian restaurants have a high standard. Top Spice is our go-to takeout place. Both for takeout and when dining in, the food comes out quickly. The Pad Thai is very red and too sweet but I always appreciate that at least it's not dry and there is ample sauce. We like the massaman curry as well. It's not award winning but it's better than average! Perfect for takeout. We tried a salmon curry dish when dining in last time. The salmon was overcooked and dry. We struggled through it. I would not recommend or order again. They have a very basic bar with some Asian beers. I think it's what you might expect of an Asian place in a shopping center here. It's light years better than the place across the street (Little Bangkok?). read more

We ordered pick up from Top Spice. Their entrees are very large, which was great for leftovers! The order was ready right when we got there. read more

Top Spice - Pad Thai with shrimp - Thai Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I got catering from here for an event of about 25 people, and it was okay. I got: - Satay Chicken: The chicken was just okay, but the sauce made it better as did the cucumber and onions that came with it. - Thai Spring Rolls: As expected, the spring rolls were cold when they came and it wasn't super good, but they were cut which I appreciated and people seemed to like them. - Green Curry: The flavor was a bit off and I didn't really like the dish at all. There were lots of vegetables though and lots of sauce. The rice quality was also not very good. - Pad Thai: The noodles stuck together and wasn't very good in general. There weren't very many ingredients in the noodles aside from the noodles themselves, even though we ordered one with shrimp and one with tofu/vegetables. We also had a bit of a mishap with delivery, as the person didn't know where to deliver to even though I provided a building name and room number when I called to order. We eventually got it worked out though. I also wish the ordering process were easier, because I had to call to order instead of just ordering online. All this, including tax and the mandatory tip, came out to be $444.45. We had a lot of leftovers though! read more

Decent place for Thai, Malaysian and curries in the toco hills area. If you want something more authentic head down buford highway. Top Spice has been around for decades and I believe they do delivery in the area if you'd rather stay in. I've never been here for dinner but the lunch special they have keeps me and my family going back (for years)! Their pad Thai and pad see u are delicious. Plus there are a lot of vegetarian options for those that do not eat meat. The lunch special at Top Spice is about 9 bucks before tip and includes an entree and a cup of coconut chicken soup (or a veggie soup if you prefer). I always take some of it home too because the portions are generous. They even have the lunch special on Saturday!! Service can vary at times but the servers are friendly and helpful. I have yet to see this place dead empty. I have never gotten take out or delivery from here but I'm sure it's as good as eating in. If you're looking for some yummy noodles or curry in the Toco area this is the place. read more

I'm not mad at this spot. Not the best Thai food but that's because I've had a ton of it so I like mine a certain way; yet it's not the worst. I'd order from here again and get everything I ordered with the exception of the coconut chicken soup. I don't think it had it had a strong coconut flavor like they normally do. Also with the pineapple fried rice I wish it came with cashews like it normally does. But like I said before not the worst, there's just minor things I'd want to comment on. read more

Top Spice - D02. Pad See-U Chicken - Thai Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

When ever I go the food has been good I don't like the catfish though but everything else has been very tasty!!

The food is truly great, but who do these guys think they are? Beef Rendang jumped five dollars since the pandemic, and they charge a delivery fee even when they are not the ones delivering. $26+ bucks out the door for ONE entree delivered. Note 6/25: I appreciate the personal note from the manager, and do understand the challenges encountered by restaurants these days. But, $26 for a single entree is still exorbitant. We don't plan to "dine in" at a restaurant any time soon - for obvious reasons - so I would think you want to find a way to make take out affordable, or more affordable. I moved this rating up one star since the food is as mentioned always very good, and the response is appreciated. :) read more

I love this place! Well i use too The 2nd time I ordered my food however i found glass in it my husband bit it in his mouth and took it out!! We call the manager and he said what does he want him to do? Um try giving his money back and giving him free food and firing your cheff!!! That's unacceptable!!! Not to mention i have a young child!! Pissed off never order from this place again! read more

This is my favorite Thai place in the area. I send friends and clients here all the time. The food is always fresh, hot and flavorful!

Nice atmosphere for a private dinner.. very sexy and dark. The food came very quickly but it took along time to get attention for the bill. The food was good more on the authentic side of Thai. Of course I had the traditional Pad Thai with shrimp . I would have love to added a little spicy to my dish especially for Thai but it was good nonetheless. The spring rolls are delicious and crispy. And definitely try the Thai flavor ice cream for dessert! Prices are reasonable and portions are hefty. read more

This used to be my go to place! Been there for years but moved away and went there again today as a carry out! Food quality has dropped tremendously. Poor chicken quality!!! Mainly inexpensive chicken pieces used. Very very disappointed!!! Even the Putri basket that's supposed to have sea food and some chicken, was mainly chicken that too rubbery!!! Not going back again!!! Peace out read more

Top Spice - Thai Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

I ordered Penang curry with pork but they gave me chicken. Then I told the server who handed me the food that it was chicken and he scraped the side of the meat and said it was pork. I then spoke with my waitress who I had ordered from and in fact, the meat was chicken. Disappointing that another server would tell me otherwise as if I can't tell the difference in meat when I'm a chef. Overall, I told the waitress that it was fine, I'll eat the chicken. The flavor was good. Everything else was good, other than a server tried to make me feel like I'm the confused one. read more

The first time I visited this place was back in 2017, when I moved to Atlanta. Top Spice has been our fav Thai place for my friends and me. The food and ambiance was good. All that changed until our recent experience at Top Spice. It was one of those special evening and we decided to get some dinner here. Started out as a fun night and it ended when we entered this restaurant. First, the host was kinda rude and was a little reluctant when we asked for a table. We get to our table and then go on to order some food. Each one of us had different dishes and spice levels and specifically asked for couple of dishes without mushrooms. The food arrives and all of them had the same spice level and guess what, mushrooms in them as well. Overall it was an unpleasant experience and the most annoying/shocking part was when we expressed our dissatisfaction, the waiter out right asked us never to come back on our face. read more

We were in Atlanta with a friend's family to visit Stone Mountain, Georgia Aquarium and Botanical Garden. We were looking for something new and authentic food to try. It was approximately 20 min away from our hotel. Parking was in front of the restaurant. Waiting time was not too long. Most of the tables were full and the room was filled with good aroma of the food cooked. Our waitress was courteous and attentive. We did ordered a whole bunch of different foods. The satay was tender. The octopus-salad was tasty. Love the spicy seafood soup. It was full of spices and flavor. My favorite was the lamb, it was cooked with perfection. The pad Thai was tasty. The noise level was average. They have a big menu to choose from. The decoration was nice. We really enjoyed our dinner with our friends and had a great time. We were too full and happy . I recommend this restaurant highly and definitely will come back to try other items. read more

Top Spice is a Thai and Malaysian restaurant with three locations in Atlanta: Midtown near Ansley Mall, Toco Hills north of Emory, and Akers Mill near Cumberland Mall. I've been to the Midtown and Toco Hills locations and I think the Toco Hills location is better (though Midtown's isn't bad). The two locations have different owners. The owner of the Toco Hills location is originally from Malaysia. This is a nice restaurant. It's one of the nicer Thai restaurants in town. However, I wouldn't consider it upscale like Nan near Atlantic Station (which is really the only true upscale Thai restaurant in Atlanta). It's more along the lines of Tamarind Seed in Midtown or Thai Chili near Emory. If I had to choose between Top Spice and the latter two, Top Spice all the way. The food tastes better and is more reasonably priced. I've only been here for dinner where the atmosphere is calm and dimly lit. This place would work well as a date spot and the atmosphere is casual enough to stroll in if you're just looking for a bite to eat. Lots of customers like to drop by and order/pick up take-out and the restaurant offers delivery service too ($15 minimum). You can call or place your order online. Top Spice's Thai offerings include the typical Thai cuisine such as rolls (fried or fresh), salads (squid salad, larb, rib-eye salad, etc.), coconut soup, lemongrass soup, noodles (pad Thai, pad see ew, lard na, etc.), rice dishes, curries, and specials including catfish, duck, soft shell crab, and lamb. Their Malaysian foods are more unique, though not necessarily better, because Malaysian food is harder to find in Atlanta. This includes things like Malaysian curry, rendang (spicy meat stew), Nyonya food (such as deep-fried pork and chicken), and ikan merah (literally translates as "red fish," a deep-fried red snapper curry). Most appetizers and salads are under $8 each and entrees range in price from about $10-18 each. I'm a big fan of the appetizers here. It's hard to go wrong with most of them. I recommend the beef satay, roti canai, Thai spring rolls, martabak, and basil lettuce wraps. The beef satay are grilled beef skewers. They're served with a peanut sauce. The meat is tender and quite savory. I like the roti canai and martabak. These are Malaysian pancakes. Roti canai is a tasty, slightly puffy and somewhat delicate flatbread. It comes with a rich and flavorful chicken and potato curry dipping sauce. The martabak is a stuffed pancake with minced beef and chopped onion inside. It's served already sliced, so it's an ideal and easy dish to share. The Thai spring rolls are fried vegetarian spring rolls served with a sweet and sour sauce. These are served at almost every Thai restaurant. Top Spice's version is par for the course, which means good. The basil lettuce wraps come with ground chicken, basil leaves, bell pepper, jicama, and a basil sauce. The wraps themselves are crisp iceberg lettuce leaves. This was one of my favorite dishes growing up and I would always be happy when my mom made it. My favorite soup is tom kha gai (chicken coconut soup). It's sweet and a little bit sour, made from coconut milk, bite-size pieces of chicken breast, galangal, lime, and mushroom. Like Thai iced tea, I think the broth can be addicting. (By the way, do yourself a favor and order a Thai iced tea.) When it comes to entrees, I recommend the catfish basil and massaman curry. The catfish basil consists of boneless, deep-fried catfish cooked in a red curry with bell pepper, green beans, and Thai eggplant. If you've never had Thai eggplant, they are small, golf ball-sized eggplant with similar texture and consistency. Good stuff. I like to have my massaman curry with chicken. Massaman curry is semi-thick, rich, and full-flavored. It's probably my favorite of the Thai curries. The massaman curry here is prepared with butter, onion, coconut milk, avocado, and cashews. It's served with white rice, which is essential. I like to mix everything together. Service is fine. Parking is plentiful. This Top Spice is located in the Toco Hills Shopping Center near the intersection of N Druid Hills Rd. and Clairmont Rd. It's the same big shopping center with Publix, Chipotle, Famous Pub, La Parrilla, and Uncle Maddio's Pizza Joint. read more

Wow. 4 stars?! This place is horrible. Ordered via Uber , chicken coconut soup had no chicken-- well 3 little pieces of chicken smaller than a chicken McNugget. Too bad as broth was pretty good. Beef satay should be renamed beef gum as it was SO chewy. Baby samosas were good. Chicken satay chicken was so dry and overcooked. Lame. Tried to eat anyway, got worse as you ate. Rubbish in my opinion. read more

I don't know why I've never rated this place. Please keep in mind that a three-star rating isn't bad. It's "A-OK." And Top Spice has always delivered some decent Thai / Malaysian foods every time I've been there. Service is always good. Food always comes to the table quickly, and I've never had a bad time at this establishment. So here's the weird thing: Even though I like this place, I do have other favorites for good Thai food. For instance, my lunch here today was Pad See U (chicken). It was good. I enjoyed it. But it made me long for someone else's Pad See U. It seems pretty clear that the dinner menu is more robust than the lunch menu. And perhaps that's why I stopped at three stars instead of four. I've had dinners here which were way more memorable than the lunch I had here today. But as I said, three stars isn't bad, and I won't hesitate to return here again, if my friends say this is where we're meeting. Holler if you're coming with. read more

I went to Top Spice for lunch because all my coworkers raved about it. Knowing my coworkers as I do, I should have known better. I'll start with the good. This restaurant looked great in the dark lighting. I don't know what it would look like if they let some sunlight in but it's got a serious-not-just-lunch-vibe; I liked that I didn't feel rushed. The service was good; I was seated promptly and my server was attentive without being annoying. My Thai iced tea was yum yum. I would say, "Well, how could you mess that up?" But I know that's possible, so thanks for the yum yum Thai iced tea. Now let's get to the bad. I ordered the panang curry with beef. (I always order the panang when I go to a Thai restaurant for the first time, it's just my thing.) Anyhow, the beef in this curry was jerky dry, and the curry was very thick - almost like a potato soup. The menu did note that the curry was mild, but Thai mild is usually perfect for lunch. But this wasn't "Thai mild" this was "American mild" which means it probably had a quarter of a chili pepper thrown in when it could have used about four. They get two stars because I don't want to go back, and I've definitely experienced better curry. Yelp 52 #11 read more

"When in the town where people wink, you must also wink" Thai Proverb Should I swim against the Yelp stream and give Top Spice 3 stars, or round up my 3 1/2 star to a four? The tofu dishes and curries are really great here. I almost licked my plate. The Pad Thai is average and disappointing. Service is good. Health score is an 80! This almost makes me drop it to two stars. The interior is warm. inviting with a great "feel" to it. Prices are a bit high. Quantities are huge. What do I expect in a good Thai restaurant? An experience of food, service and ambiance, Top Spice delivers. In the end, I know I will be back to Top Spice, I like it too much. Yes, i am a fan. Wink, wink. read more

I'm wondering why its so far to find really really food thai or Malaysian food in atlanta. Maybe I'm just too picky, but the food here just doesn't seem that good. The curry plates are plentiful and come with unlimited rice, but they are kinda expensive, all $10+. the Appetizers here are kinda small for the money, and I feel that the dishes here are all overly salted. I got the naan w/ curry (the best appetizer there), the malaysian pancake (which ended up being ground beef wrapped with puff pastry) and i also tried a few of the curries and tandori chicken. The naan with curry is awsome because you get an appetizer with the naan, and then you can combine the leftover curry with rice. The problem with Top Spice is that they are less generous with their curry then other thai restaurants. The Tandori chicken which I tried actually came with more vegetables than chicken, which I thought was kinda weird. And they didnt have hainan chicken.... I'll go back there if my friends ever want to go but thats basically it. read more

Ordered pad Thai with shrimp and chicken fried rice to go. The fried rice was really good 5/5. The pad was not so good 3/5. I threw away the portion that I couldn't finish. It doesn't taste like pad Thai at all. There's no bean sprout and the sauce is just different. It's more like shrimp with stir fried noodles. That's what they should call it. read more
