26 Thai Kitchen (The Battery)
About Us

26 Thai Kitchen & Bar was founded in 2016 with the opening of the original flagship location in Buckhead. After building a passionate following, and experiencing several years of sustained growth, the brand expanded to a second location in Midtown in 2019. Both locations have proven to be wildly successful, solidifying themselves at the top of the Atlanta dining scene, and receiving several top accolades including the prestigious "Thai Select Premium" award. We are thrilled to now be a part of The Battery family, and can't wait to showcase our delicious Thai food with the Braves and their fans!

26 Thai is located inside Ph’East. It’s a market for Asian cuisines. There is an employee at the front counter, but you order your food from a monitor screen.
When the food is ready you have to come back and pick it up. There’s a common dining area for all of the restaurants in there. But the monitor does ask for to tip,
With 20% by default. But we changed it to our custom tip. We’re ordering, we’re picking up our food. But I have to say the food was DELICIOUS! The Panama curry with shrimp, Fried rice and season fried wings

Diner Review №2

Delicious food. A bit pricey but quick and great tasting

Diner Review №3

I have recently developed an addiction to Thai food and I am so grateful that this place was opened and not packed. The Thai lemonade and all the food was phenomenal. The guy who took my order seemed somewhat annoyed but I just smiled and went on about my evening. Food was so hot and fresh omg . I'll probably be back tonight

Diner Review №4

Simply awesome 🐲🍣

Diner Review №5

Quick fast food kind of an atmosphere in a small food court just outside the stadium and Roxy Concert Hall. Food was great and tasted good.
Be prepared for NYC prices.
Sound $25 for an entree. We got 2 dishes which came in a bowl plus 2 Diet Coke cans. Bill was $52.

Parking on the deck was $50 for 2 hours and change.

Diner Review №6

A bit pricey but delicious food!

Diner Review №7

Chicken wings stink dirty grease taste Food horrible taste recycled grease taste “Midtown Location” is great - this location is horrible

Diner Review №8

I got the lunch chicken pad Thai. The service was fast and the food was hot. The pad Thai was average; the chicken was good but it needed more spice. The price was ridiculously high for the size portion you get ($20.50 for 1 lunch size serving). I probably wouldn’t order again.

Diner Review №9

Amazing as always! I love coming here when I'm in Atlanta.

Diner Review №10

Diner Review №12

Was going to the Green Day concert today and decided to give this place a try, and boy was I happy I did. The cashier Martin was super nice and helpful. He recommended the basil fried fried which was fire. Spicy and delicious. The dumplings were also super flavorful and meaty. Can’t wait to come back and try and more!

Love the food and staff

Diner Review №24

Pad see ew was dripping oil and seasoning wasn’t good, and Panang Curry was way too sweet

Diner Review №25

The shared space is great and includes a bar. I have the tamarind shrimp and the Massam sauce with bread. Everything was great.

Diner Review №26

The chef the best in town

Diner Review №27

We were a family of four out for movie night. We decided on Asain street eats, it's an Asain cuisine, food court. We all decided on 26 Thai Kitchen because they had the fresh pineapple with fried rice. It comes with chicken and shrimp and a side of fried rice. We all ordered with no shrimp, Xtra chicken. When it came out, it looked really good. It was hot and steaming. We started eating the chicken and veggies that were stuffed into the halved pineapple and low and behold, the chicken was so dry and crunchy, it immediately reminded me of my college days in Charleston SC. where there were several Asain restaurants that were shut down because they were found to be serving homeowners pets (cats and dogs) as the protein. Well, this had that same odd texture and one of the reasons I truly stopped eating at Chinese restaurants. You could literally not chew the supposedly chicken that was served in the pineapple. I told the lady at the counter and she asked if I wanted another order... well hell no! I didn't say it, but I definitely thought it. I don't recommend this place.

Update: Seven months later, I received a response from this dump.

Diner Review №28

I love the food here❤️😘

Diner Review №29

gotta be smoking something with these prices. youd think for $20 it would be enough for at least one person. $20 gets you a little more than a maruchan ramen packets worth of food.

Diner Review №30

Really Nice place to grab a bite to eat

Diner Review №31

We had the Basil Gai dish. Minced chicken with fully fried egg. The jasmine rice was on the side. The taste was really good. Felt that the rice could be more in quantity.

Diner Review №32

FANTASTIC food with amazing staff. Get the Drunken Noodles with Beef or the Basil Gai. You won't be disappointed.

Diner Review №33

Very underwhelming. Luckily I’ve been to other locations, so I know that this place is no reflection of the others. My pad thai had little to no seasoning, & the salmon fried rice came with a bland piece of salmon. Very disappointed 😩.

UPDATE: I placed my order online; thus, they had my phone number. Following my initial review I received a call to inquire about my experience, & how they can improve. That really meant a lot. Some ppl don’t care enough to do such. Thank you for that.

Diner Review №34

$25 for a street food entry in a food hall is wild. I blame myself.

Diner Review №35

Good :)

Diner Review №36

This has been one of the best places I’ve come to since moving to Atlanta! The food is delicious, smooth environment and atmosphere, and the service was phenomenal for how well they served us and cared for our presence in a timely manner. recommended to my friends and family and we’ll be back soon!

Diner Review №37

I LOVE THE PAD SEE EWE! it’s tucked in a cute food hall that offer other asian cuisines and a full bar. personally i always have a craving for good thai food

Diner Review №38

Amazing place to eat. I love their fried rice.

Diner Review №39

One of the best authentic Thai food in Georgia! Panang curry and the pad thai is my personal favorite.

Diner Review №40

The guy at the counter just could care less about taking your order or getting anything for you. He rolls his eyes at you when you ask for chopsticks. Service is just poor and there’s better Thai food pretty close to the Battery so I wouldn’t eat here.

Diner Review №41

I was disappointed with the panang curry (normally one of my favorite thai dishes). It was very sweet and maybe a bit too much fish sauce. I feel like from now on when I try new restaurants I'll have to ask how sweet the curry is because I wish I had ordered something different.

The tom yum soup was the same, very sweet and a bit too fishy. I was hungry but only ate about half of my meal because of the overly sweet flavor. Unfortunately I don't think I'll go back - but if I did I would have a lot of questions before ordering.

Diner Review №42

the noodles had very little flavor aside from the vegetables that were put into the dish. i ordered the drunken noodles with tofu and was sorely disappointed. it was a 2/10 in terms of spiciness, so i asked for more chili oil, and to my surprise, they were only able to provide sriracha. as a last ditch effort, i asked for peanut sauce, and like my previous ask, they didn’t have any. weird vibes in the dish. SUPER small portions. not worth the price at all. if you still go here, make sure you ask for chopsticks if that’s your speed because they may not give them to you without asking. the cashier was nice tho😊

Diner Review №43

Love the Supreme Fried Rice !

Diner Review №44

Diner Review №47

The RICE here is 💣!! If I can eat fried rice cold it is GOODT!! Mia is AMAZING and the cooks are on their A game. I RECOMMEND this place 5 stars for sure!!!

Diner Review №48

Pad Thai is my favorite, but everything here is amazing and the staff are so friendly!

Diner Review №49

Diner Review №50

Seems like they’re serving old noodles. No flavor and noddles are completely bonded. Not worth the price at all. We ordered drunken noodles with shrimp

Diner Review №51

Customer Service Sucks..,

Diner Review №52

26 Thai Kitchen is a Homerun! So much flavor and a perfect meal to hold you over before the big game. 🍚🥟

Diner Review №53

Very mediocre. Pad Thai had a couple shrimp. Noodles weren't cooked right and were all stuck together. The lady that gave me my pick up order barely looked up. Everything about the food and service was underwhelming.

Diner Review №54

Just a little warning if ordering off Uber Eats. I ordered without checking the prices but when I saw the total at the end. I cancelled immediately, within 10 seconds and still got charged by the merchant because they had starting preparing the food. Contacted Uber Eats and they said the merchant would not refund

Diner Review №55

Great food and service. Perfect for grubbing before seeing the game!

Diner Review №56

Diner Review №57

I love their roti with chicken Masaman curry

Diner Review №58

The food is great and Meina is super nice!

Diner Review №59

My husband and I have visited this place for the first time last week and the food was delicious. The people there are also very friendly. We will definitely visit again!

Diner Review №60

Amazing food and service!!

Diner Review №61

Today I visited this place, and I had the bad experience of asking for an extra fork and being denied after paying $35 for a plate of rice with 2 spring rolls, I think it's disrespectful!!! an abuse and inconsideration to any customer, I hope the owner of the restaurant reads my opinion

Diner Review №62

Worst location every. DO NOT GO HERE. Food was stale and undercooked.

Diner Review №63

Feels energetic and vibrant. Don’t miss out on this place!

Diner Review №64

Diner Review №65

The Good...
Customer service, presentation, and atmosphere was on point.

The venue reminds me of a chic, upscale food court with various Asian eateries. A bar centers the venue and the music playing further complemented the space.

The Mehhhh...
Taste, and price for quantity.

Honestly the food was just mediocre..I've had better from my local Chinese/Asian spots and for a fraction of the price... I had their Bangkok chicken wings (which was stated to be one of their best sellers..**scratches head** lol...moving on). I received 6 wings for $12.99...they were on the drier side and lacked flavor...so I'm pretty underwhelmed, but may try another menu item or a different eatery within the xort next time.

Diner Review №66

Great place but overpriced. Which is why you expected the battery. best thing is they're open late so you can get late night food that's not just Waffle House.

Diner Review №67

Diner Review №68

The Calamari was tasty and the Thai tea is always a favorite.
The mall food court style shops with a shared dining space isn't a bad idea, but I wish they had put more thought into the restrooms of that place.

Diner Review №69

Really enjoyed this place. Very nice atmosphere and the food was wonderful.

Diner Review №70

This place is great!! Just wish it was they had some hotter options!

Diner Review №71

Excellent food, limited choice yet quality and flavorful offerings. Pineapple Boat and Panang Curry are highly recommended.

Diner Review №72

Overpriced and mediocre Thai food. One and done for me.

Diner Review №73

Food always great! This location and piedmont! 26 basil Thai was amazing!!!

Diner Review №74

Good place to grab asian plates in Battery

Diner Review №75

Great food !

Diner Review №76

Don’t listen to any of the less than perfect reviews, this place is 🔥and I give it 5 Stars!!
26 Thai Kitchen is a short order quick service food stahl located inside of Pho East. Which is a food and drink hall at The Battery (outside of the Braves Stadium). They are a sister location to their other long standing famous locations in and around Atlanta and offer a condensed version of their full service restaurants’ menus consisting of their most popular dishes.

If you like salmon, try my favorite dish Penang Salmon & Shrimp dish. It’s $27 but it’s so big you could easily split it or save half for your next meal. Also try their Thai Coffee for an afternoon pick me up when you have a case of the 2:30’s 😉

Diner Review №77

Paid way too much for them to neglect to add the chicken, which they did. Flavorless too, and odd that bell pepper was added.

Diner Review №78

Food is deliciously overpriced. It was $60 for 2 orders and water. The fried chicken wings and fried rice is just right and the panang curry is too.

Diner Review №79

Food is good but the price don't match with the quantity. I am still hungry after the meal. It is over priced for the food court type of food. Likely won't return.

Diner Review №80

Good customer service

Diner Review №81

Diner Review №82

Noodles were dry and stiff like they were cooled and microwaved. Flavorless too

Diner Review №83

We recently visited some friends in Atlanta and they took us to The Battery at Truist Park where we stumbled into the PH'EAST Food Hall and decided to eat food from 26 Thai Kitchen. We went with a few classics, the Pad See Ewe and the 26 Basil Fried Rice which were yummy! The food hall itself was very busy, but plenty of seating and we loved the environment!

Diner Review №84

The Drunken Noodles are sooo worth it. Do it. Thank me later.

Diner Review №85

Food was dry and way over priced. Not seasoned. Won’t be eating here ever again. Very unimpressive. It’s a no for me.

Diner Review №86

I loved every bit of my meal here. It adds that the service was also on point, as was the drink. Looking forward to coming back.

Diner Review №87

The food is overpriced, $19 for chicken pad thai. The location is by Truist Park so you know it will be expensive. The food was good and it was made in a timely manner.

Diner Review №88

Diner Review №89

26 Thai at The Battery is outstanding in every way! I order from this location at least weekly and have never been disappointed by food quality or service. The manager/cashier (I believe her name is Jeancy) is the sweetest person on the planet and always provides an outstanding experience, whether I'm dining in at Ph'east or just picking some food up to go.

When it comes to starters, the dumplings are to die for and as authentic as they come in Atlanta. They remind me of the ones I had for Dim Sum in Bangkok, but bigger! The crab cheese rolls are also a fun and delicious take on an American take-out staple. I also loved the spring rolls. For mains, my go-tos are the Pad See Ewe, Pad Thai, and Drunken Noodle. My boyfriend loves the pineapple boat and supreme fried rice. & of course, I love the thai tea to drink when I'm in the mood for something sweet. They just rolled out desserts not too long ago but I haven't had a chance to try them yet. Maybe next week ;)

The portions are substantial—I often can't finish my meal if I order a starter, and sometimes even when I don't! And trust me, your girl can eat. The prices are commensurate with the location and especially the quality of food (and inflation and pandemic-related/supply-chain price increases—so please keep this in mind if you want to complain about the price of their food).

Overall: eat here & experience good food & excellent service :)

Diner Review №90

Basil fried rice was delicious

Diner Review №91

Avoid 26 Thai Kitchen this is not Pad Thai . Noodles should not be $17 plus tax plus tip. Not gonna say the worst Thai food because what I had was not Thai Food

Diner Review №92

Came here while trying the new food hall at The Battery. I ordered the Chicken Curry. It was good and the portion was perfect. I wasn't overly full but I was satisfied. I would go back.

Diner Review №93

Love this place for lunch!! They have the best spicy pad thai and tofu 🤤!!
Definitely give it a go with some thai tea 💕💗

Diner Review №94

Diner Review №95

They do not close at 12pm, misleading.. they close 11-1130pm.

Diner Review №96

Located in a food hall in Ph’east at The Battery. The Massan curry and the spicy fried rice are delicious. The owner is very nice. I took off 1 star because it can get pricey and for some reason, my spring rolls are often left off my order. However, they are good about getting it to me rather quickly.

Diner Review №97

jeancy is a beast! the food there was some of the best i’ve ever had and i’m definitely coming back!

Diner Review №98

Good food, aesthetics and service. Didn’t expect to find a quality Thai restaurant here at the battery. I would come back to eat here again.

Diner Review №99

Great food. A little hard to find (but I am from out of town). Decent price. Will try it again in the near future.

Diner Review №100

Diner Review №101

Great customer service, the cashier is always smiling and friendly. The food is tasty and remarkable. I highly recommend to try their pad Thai, Pad See Ewe and crab cheese roll on this location.

Diner Review №102

Delicious Thai food! I would say is as good as Bangkok Station in Buckhead. I moved from Buckhead to Smyrna and I’m so glad I have found this place! I love fresh, delicious food.

Diner Review №103

I must be stalking this place. I've been to the Lindbergh one and the midtown one and now the battery one. I came for the king Fu tea but figure I try it out since I did the others. Pretty darn good. It's a smaller version of the dine in restaurant experience but the food is still up to par well at least the pad thai which is all I got lol. Thumbs up. Keep it going.

Diner Review №104

One of the best quick thai places. They pad thai was very good will definitely come back again.

Diner Review №105

Our meals were absolutely phenomenal and the staff was very knowledgeable. We will definitely be coming back!

Diner Review №106

Had a great experience at 26 Thai Battery the other night! Cashier was very knowledgeable and helpful about deciphering the menu. The food was amazing as well, the crab cheese rolls and basil rolls were fantastic. My husband had the Pad Thai chicken and couldn’t stop thinking about it a week later! Thank you 26 Thai, recommend to everyone!

Diner Review №107

Delicious, traditional Thai food, fast; try the Panang curry, it’s my favorite!

Diner Review №108

Discovered this place from a foodie IG that I follow so decided to give it a try. Very good food. I thought the location was pretty cool as well. I’d eat here again.

Diner Review №109

Great customer service and food

Diner Review №110

The server Bic P was rude and lacked customer service. Won’t be returning

Diner Review №111

Loved my food! I got the massaman roti which was like a soup with soft bread and then the dumplings which were a work of art! Delicious !

Diner Review №112

Slowest place on earth - waited 25 min for the order - had to talk tot them and they gave us part of our order; meantime - online Orestes kept being delivered. Soup was good though.

Diner Review №113

Just okay. Needs more flavor, kinda bland. Not great, but not nasty either. Dont think I'll come back.

Diner Review №114

Good food but terrible customer service. They barely speak and act like they don’t want your money.

Diner Review №115

Great panang curry. Friendly staff. So awesome to be able to walk up at Pheast and order such good curry at a counter service restaurant. Will definitely be back.

Diner Review №116

Diner Review №117

Food isn’t the greatest and they specialize is screwing up your order. If you’re doing a to go order, make sure you check your food before you leave! They will either screw up your order or leave something out. Pathetic

Diner Review №118

Amazing food and service

Diner Review №119

Diner Review №120

Diner Review №121

Horrible food...I've never had thai food that had so much sugar in it!!! It tasted terrible and their vegetarian curry also tasted like it had fish sauce!! Overall horrible food at this location. Recommend you stay away if you want some decent thai food.

Diner Review №122

Best Thai food in the area!!

Diner Review №123

This restaurant may be located in a food hall, but the dishes they serve are more thoughtfully plated, flavorful, and tasty than any of the supposed "fine Thai dining" spots around town. A much needed addition to the previously uninspiring food options within Ph'east. I work in an office near the Battery, so I'll be here every day for lunch!
