The location stays open until 11PM on Saturdays which is great. The second order of one of the appetizers was slightly undercooked, so the waitress took it back and brought my table another order, fully cooked. There is hot tea. Two TVs show cooking shows without any sound for a pleasant viewing session. The food was good and filling. There are some mini statuettes also that looked interesting.

Our favorite Thai place.

Diner Review №5

I probably wont return not because the food wasn’t good I was not pleased with service or portion size. The lady that took my order didn’t seem to know how to place orders and they charge a dollar for a super small ramekin of yum sauce. There is a better thai restaurant down the street that just happens to be closed on Monday. You get more for your money. Food was ok it wasn’t bad .

Diner Review №6

I had the duck curry, and it was sooo good! They made it gluten free on request. My husband absolutely loved his roti and khao soi (not gf.)

Diner Review №13

Delicious food, excellent service/very attentive, very clean and beautifully decorated!

Diner Review №14

Thai Chili is among the first Atlanta Thai restaurants, and it's lasted for decades because it's so tasty.

They have great curry, noodles, and custom prepared entres.

Vegetarians will do well, and wheelchair access is easy.

Diner Review №15

A casual spot for Thai food with the usual fare- Thai coffee, curries, etc.
They seem to have limited staff, and plenty of to-go orders, so it can be a bit of a wait! This also means, you’re waiting awhile at the entrance for someone to show you to your table! Food was decent and not pricey.

Diner Review №17

My favorite Thai cuisine. It's an hour away, but the food is always delicious. Especially the Tom Yum soup.

Diner Review №18

I am normally a dasher there but I decided to get the fried rice and it was absolutely delicious and the lady was so kind and the food was delicious. I came back a second time 😂 I can’t be spending money like this 😭 but thank you I will be coming back for my birthday

Diner Review №19

This was our first time at this restaurant and I have to admit it was absolutely delicious. The service was impeccable and the food was to die for. As crazy as it sounds I enjoy their hot tea my husband and I shared the Jasmine tea and also the ginger tea and it made our meal that much richer! We will be visiting again.

Diner Review №24

This time I ordered basil rolls, fried tofu, and spicy shrimp soup. Never gonna have the fried you again. Did not impress. The Massaman and red curries were nice.

Diner Review №28

Absolutely fantastic experience at Thai Chili! The customer service was exceptional—staff were friendly and attentive. The food was incredibly tasty, with rich, authentic flavors that made every dish memorable. Highly recommend the Pad Thai and Green Curry. A must-visit spot for anyone craving delicious Thai cuisine in Atlanta!

Diner Review №30

I absolutely loved this place. It was my first time but my Aunt eats here often and highly recommended it. The fried dumplings and thai eggrolls were so good, the sauces were wonderful. I had pad thai with chicken and she had the massaman chicken. I thoroughly enjoyed my dish but having tried her massaman curry I will be ordering it next time because it was particularly delicious 😋 For dessert we shared some green tea ice cream and sweet mango sticky rice. Fabulous! The service was excellent and the atmosphere comfortable. Plenty of parking.

Diner Review №31

Food not cooked. Lots of the rice was white and hard. Crunching, nasty. Server yelled at my friend. Because he wanted the bill split. Server never asked if we wanted it split.

Diner Review №32

When I arrived no one was at the desk for service, it took a while. I ordered beef/broccoli and shrimp soup. Awful! The beef/broccoli had no flavor and was very watery. The soup was only unflavored broth with two shrimp.
Very disappointing. I will definitely not return.

No one on Thursday night but still very very slow to get order.

Diner Review №37

Truly good and fresh papaya salad, spring rolls, spicy shrimp soup, and a fantastic noodle soup ( Khao Soi) prove that Thai Chili continues to be a reliable spot for great Thai. The server was INCREDIBLE and even wrapped my soup to go in plastic so it didn't spill in the car after our great impromptu Sunday dinner. 5 stars all around...not sure what the 1star reviews are about but they must be talking about another restaurant!

Diner Review №38

This Thai food is absolutely ridiculously good.
All curries are incredible.

Diner Review №39

The spicy basil fried rice was just terrible. After a long day of starving and looking forward to eat something good, only for the food to arrive and it was bland, the rice was so white, the peppers was bitter and the chicken has no spice whatsoever. Over all the food was just not it.

Diner Review №40

Don’t go here!!! The people are friendly but I found a piece of metal shard in my girlfriend’s food last night. It cut her throat when she tried to eat. This establishment will be hearing from my lawyer.

Diner Review №41

Diner Review №42

The food was above average. I don't like a small salad served in a small bowl with large leaves and no knife. I had the spicy, spicy chicken dish with crunchy vegetables. The service was excellent. I am wondering if Thai serves hot tea, similar to Chinese dining. It was my first Thai dining experience. I especially liked the hot condiments. Be kind to each other.

Diner Review №43

The food is amazing!

Diner Review №44

Diner Review №45

Delicious spicy food, no problems with anything. Clean and nice people. Love coming here.

Diner Review №46

Diner Review №47

Diner Review №48

Very clean and bright atmosphere. The food is good and fresh. Service was a tad laid back and slow, but there was only one waitress that also served as the hostess.

Diner Review №49

Just ordered from Uber eats. My food smells and tastes so horrible.

Diner Review №50

I dined in for dinner tonight and enjoyed my experience. Kind service, nice atmosphere and tasty food (very generous portions, now I have lunch for tomorrow covered!). Can’t wait to go back!

Diner Review №51

We had a late dinner here and everyone was so friendly and kind. The portions were huge and everything was flavorful and delicious. I’ll be glad to come back soon.

Diner Review №52

A perfect example of why you should check your to go order before you leave the restaurant.

Diner Review №53

I ordered the seafood soup for 2 (~$21) and the fried squid (~$12). I was fairly disappointed with the soup as it was mainly broth. I had two shrimp, two muscles, a scallop which appeared to be cut in half, two mushrooms quartered and about 1/4-1/2 portion of salmon. For the price point, I was disappointed. I’ve had similar dishes elsewhere which felt more hearty and filling. I ordered the fried squid as I was still hungry after the soup, and am much happier with the price point and quantity. Generous slices and cooked perfectly. Recommend the fried squid but not the soup for 2.

Diner Review №54

Diner Review №55

Everything I’ve ever tried was divine! Papaya salad and salmon fried rice are my faves!!

Diner Review №56

There was metal in my food. I ordered from uber eats. Looks like it’s from one of those metal sponges. Can’t imagine how it got in my food. I can’t eat anything I ordered from this place after finding that. It wasn’t on top of my food it was mixed in with the noodles. I’m disgusted and disappointed. The food that I DID eat before I found this was very mediocre. I never leave reviews but I had to after this experience.

Diner Review №57

Diner Review №58

Best Thai place in town! I’ve been in the restaurant. Food and service is excellent. Takeout is the same. I couldn’t ask for better. My favorite is the green curry.

Diner Review №59

Food always fresh. Excellent flavor. Still can't find a Thai place with food hot enough, but this does fine. I love it.

Diner Review №60

So delicious!! Ordered the masaman curry chicken and it was BEST I have ever had!! We also ordered the soft shell crab pad thai and cashew curry were also fantastic. Will be back many times!!

Diner Review №61

Diner Review №62

Fabulous food in a wonderful setting!

Diner Review №63

Great flavors and a nice atmosphere for lunch or dinner.

Diner Review №64

First time at Thai Chili and it was great. The food was the best ! We had spring rolls, papaya salad, green curry beef and mango sticky rice, it was delicious and fair amount of food. We will come back for sure !!
Kudos for the chef !!!

Diner Review №65

Diner Review №66

The best Thai restaurant
Pad krapow beef so good
Nam tok beef the best

Diner Review №67

The food was okay.. but they added a 20% tip by FORCE!! they called it gratuity?? I went up to them to ask about it and she claimed that this was on every thai restaurant in America. Shameful.. ☹️

Diner Review №68

This is what the Tom Yam soup looks like. Menu doesn’t say anything about mushrooms. Not spicy, not good.

Diner Review №69

A1 service and the food is always good

Diner Review №70

Diner Review №71

Ordered takeout from here multiple times over 3 the past years. A bit pricey but the food is good. Also, really spicy. I ordered medium Pad Thai and it's really hot. I frequently order the spiciest things I can find, but this place isn't playing around. Their online menu lists "not spicy, a little spicy, mild, medium, spicy, and Thai hot" as the heat scale. Medium is already a pretty good burn, the Thai hot should be a challenge for heat heads.

Diner Review №72

First time eating here. Food was amazing and staff is super friendly.

Diner Review №73

The Thai spring rolls and chicken satay are delicious!!!

Diner Review №74

Diner Review №75

Quiet restaurant. Good customer service. No alcohol. Authentic, delicious, Thai food. Vegetarian options. Will return again.

Diner Review №76

I've ordered takeout a few times and dined in once. The green curry (I had mine with tofu) is very good, although not as spicy as I'd like (and they don't ask for a heat level). The chicken coconut soup was just okay; I ate it all the one time I ordered it, but wouldn't order it again. Dine-in service was noticeably slow despite the restaurant being fairly empty.

Diner Review №77

Great Food

Diner Review №78

Diner Review №79

I loved the spicy basil fried rice. I had this with chicken. It was super good. Service was great. A little pricey. I had the seafood fried rice. I'm from coast so I have high standards for seafood. The oysters were the best, the salmon,and shrimp were a bit bland.

Diner Review №80

Best Thai in my opinion

Diner Review №81

Diner Review №82

The place has a new management. And they don't speak English, it's hard to ask for things when you can't communicate.. I don't see this place lasting too long now and the lady and the old dude attitude is not to welcoming.

Diner Review №83

Best Thai in Atlanta

Diner Review №84

Diner Review №85

Value and quality went downhill after the original owners sold.

Diner Review №86

I’ve eaten here twice now, once dining-in for lunch, the other delivery. Both times I found the food to be very good, and portions the right size for price point. The in-dining experience is great and I always get medium spice and it has just the right amount of kick I’m looking for.

Diner Review №87

The service was wonderful, the food was incredible, very neat & clean restaurant. Can’t wait to return with friends & family!

Diner Review №88

Food used to be better but they still get a thumbs up. Good place

Diner Review №89

Reliable, spicy Thai

Diner Review №90

Great Soup, Great service, quiet atmosphere.

Diner Review №91

They are the priciest of the Thai restaurants close to me, but they are the only one that when I order something "Thai hot" I actually regret it a little bit.

6 out 5 stars! Keep making me suffer!

(The spicy catfish is the best in town)

Diner Review №92

Diner Review №93

Diner Review №94

Nice owner and staff. Great, fresh Thai dishes. Fried squid appetizer is best in city. Curry dishes are great, especially green curry.

Diner Review №95

Hands down my favorite Thai place in Atlanta. The masaman curry is perfect, it tastes like a comfort food, even though I didn't grow up with thai food.

Diner Review №96

I unfortunately ignored the reviews to give this place a chance b/c all of my go to Thai restaurants were closed. I have to be honest and say, this is absolutely not the authentic Thai that I’m used to, I’ve eaten from numerous Thai restaurants around Atlanta and none of them taste as horrible as this. I ordered salmon fried rice as well as basil fried rice which had only one piece of basil in it. Portions were small on top of that the food taste like dry Chinese from Bankhead, and both dishes were extremely bland. Spent almost 40 bucks. Not worth the cost, at all.

Diner Review №97

Good food,good atmosphere, good service

Diner Review №98

I am new to eating and enjoying Thai food but out of all of the restaurants I’ve eaten at this one is really good.

Diner Review №99

Diner Review №100

Tried the catfish, Crab Fried Rice, and Lamb Chops. Would highly recommend any of them. Some of the best thai food I’ve had in a while. A hidden gem behind the overrated Americanized Thai places in ATL. Give it a try!

Diner Review №101

The most boring and bland pineapple fried rice I’ve ever tasted. Very expensive too.

Diner Review №102

Horrible food

Diner Review №103

Everything tasted good, but considering the pricetag, I would expect portions to be larger ($10 for very small Papaya salad), and fresher (carrots and cabbage looked like they were cut and sitting outside for extended time). We at least tried....

Diner Review №104

If you're closed lock the door. Don't be rude to people walking in. Used to be a great place before they started using Curry in a Hurry and different staff. Get a Little Bangkok instead! Way better customer service!

Diner Review №105

The food was excellent, service was fantastic! Highly recommended, clean and well maintained. Thank you for an awesome experience!

Diner Review №106

The best spicy (Thai hot) basil fried rice that I have found. I live in Newton County, but drive here a few times a week just for the amazing rice. When I can dine in, the service is excellent and the restaurant is very clean. I recommend this place to anyone who can handle heat an great Thai food.

Diner Review №107

I used to love the food here, but that was six years ago, which was the last time I was in the area. I really loved the spicey squid until this time. Instead of the dish I remembered, it was a dish of fried squid with little else especially spice. I was quite disappointed.

Diner Review №108

Thai Chili is a favorite restaurant for my dinner group. It has consistently good food and service. I always compare Masaman Curry and/or Panang Curry whenever I try a new Thai Restaurant and this place sets the bar for both. I’ve tried many other dishes here as well and enjoyed them all. Highly recommend.

Diner Review №109

The Thai iced coffee is literally magic. You can’t go wrong with the curries either.

Diner Review №110

Very small portions for the price, not acceptable.

Diner Review №111

Diner Review №112

Nice looking decoration but the food was terrible and high pricing

Diner Review №113

Dishonest restaurant. Refuses to honor deal they sold to the public.

Diner Review №114

Love their mango sticky rice, and thai iced tea.

Diner Review №115

Service was terrible. Had to call the waiter over to get their attention. Same thing to get drink refills and same thing to get the bill. Food was not good. Definitely wouldn't recommend

Diner Review №116

Diner Review №117

Diner Review №118

Diner Review №119

Nice people and the Butter Curry was delish! Late night service was customer service focused.
Sn: (The tea had a knat in it but they quickly gave us a different drink)

Diner Review №120

Friendly staff, excellent food, expedient service!

Diner Review №121

Had Pad Thai delivered. Mediocre but ok EXCEPT for the chicken. So tough and chewy that it was inedible. This restaurant used to be so good 😕

Diner Review №122

Paid $5 for a to go thai tea that was just all ice and majority milk…

Diner Review №123

Diner Review №124

One restaurant that always gets the takeaway order right - and always great food. Spicy catfish is an office favorite!

I had spring rolls and Kee Mao (aka drunken noodles). Stellar food. Great service. Nice atmosphere.

Diner Review №138

Diner Review №139

I ordered spicy fried rice with shrimp and vhicken, spring rolls, and thi wings. The food wasn't good at all, and the food had no flavor. The chicken and shrimp was rubbery and bland. I ordered over fourty dollars worth of food and they did not give me any condiments to go with my food. When I asked, I was told I had to pay a dollar and the lady was very rude about it. If you can not cook do not open up a restaurant.

Great food but checking the menu prices I understand why they are not as busy anymore. Great food but prices are unrealistic for Asian food.

Diner Review №147

As always very very good

Diner Review №148

Diner Review №149

Very good food good service!! Delicious definitely will come back!!!

Diner Review №150

Paid $15 for broth that had a extreme pickled flavor and 2 pieces of shrimp. It was also not the soup I ordered. Very disappointed. Milk coconut chicken soup also tasted off

Diner Review №151

Diner Review №152

We get takeout from here all the time and it has never disappointed. Very fast and always delicious.

Diner Review №155

Diner Review №156

Really tasty food. We went for lunch and servings are a good size. The whole place is very clean and extremely friendly staff. Overall, a great experience.

Diner Review №157

Diner Review №158

Revising my 5 star review. What changed? The Tom Kha soup was inedible and went right down the drain. Curry was blah. And pickup was a disaster where they couldn't find orders even with the name on the bag. It was great for years, but we won't be back

Diner Review №159

I usually deliver for them but decided to try them for once. I’m glad I did, my food was incredible.

Diner Review №160

Diner Review №161

Me and my best friend always come here as our go to spot. We always order the same things so I can't speak on their full menu but the spicy basil fried rice is the bomb. Add an egg on top for delicious goodness.

Diner Review №162

They are very nice and welcoming. The food is presented beautifully and tastes as good as it looks!

Diner Review №163

Really delicious food. Worth the price. The manager is lovely and helpful. 10/10

Diner Review №164

It used to be great, but it is now under new "management" (I use the term loosely). You wait an eternity and then the food is disappointing. The massaman curry is like water and tastes like nothing. I regret to say that I won't be going there any more. Such a shame.

Diner Review №165

This food was not good. I Ordered chicken fried rice and it was awful and smelled old. I had to throw it out. $33.00 down the toilet. Literally

Diner Review №166

Bad service, I was not notified that they no longer accept local flavor coupons, they have a different owner now, the food is not the same. I will not go back.

Diner Review №167

Diner Review №168

Great service.

Diner Review №169

Great sooy

Diner Review №170

Take our only at this time.

Diner Review №171

I ordered the spicy vegetables with chicken as take out. The food was bland, there were no vegetables except for a few very small pieces of pepper and onion and the order was mostly rice.

Very disappointing!

Diner Review №172

Used to like their spring rolls. Ordered two dishes, found long hair in the food. Not sure if the restaurant follows safety measures. Don’t recommend

Diner Review №173

Terribly over-priced. Food is very inauthentic and bland but makes sense for this area. Wouldn't visit again.

Diner Review №174

If you have a different taste bud than others this is for you or spicy give it a try

Diner Review №175

Once again my to go order was shorted items. This is getting to be ridiculous. Just how hard can it be to double check an order before it goes out. The food is great, when you actually get it.

Be careful and double check your order. From now on I will empty the bag completely before I leave the restaurant because Thai Chili cannot be trusted to get your order right.

Diner Review №176

Diner Review №177

Ordered today for the 1st time and the fried rice was so good and fresh! I will be returning!

Diner Review №178

I'm sad to say the pad thai was the blandest I've ever had. I really couldn't even finish it as it just seemed like a bowl of carbs. No spice or flavoring. I lived in Asia for two years, and six months in Thailand. They love flavor and it's not found here, unfortunately. Like other reviewers have said. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Diner Review №179

This is still my favorite Thai. If I happen. To think of it, I not happy til I've ordered!

Diner Review №180

Excellent Thai food.

Diner Review №181

Uber eats delivery

Diner Review №182

Clean restaurant, covid-19 measures in place, friendly staff, quick service.

Diner Review №185

Diner Review №186

Highly recommend! Been going here for years- best Thai in Atlanta!

Diner Review №187

The pad thai is pretty good, but I thought the portion was small. The coconut chicken soup was a bit thin as well.

Diner Review №188

Diner Review №189

If u are looking for AUTHENTIC THAI...KEEP LOOKING. taste bland couldn't even pass for Chinese food. Ordered spicy basil fried rice had NO BASIL FLAVOR & numtok was served with a quarter hunk of cabbage

Diner Review №190

Diner Review №191

Diner Review №192

Delicious food for a very fair price!

Diner Review №193

I purchased a local coupon for $20 for $40 worth of food for dine in. When I walked in the restaurant, they were offering take out only. The host stated that I needed to purchase $60 worth of food in order to use the coupon. I’m the only person eating and it gave me the option to dine in on the Local Flavor website. Why would there be an option to dine in on the coupon if only take out is available? I wouldn’t have purchased the $20 voucher if I knew that. The voucher states that I can have $40 worth of food if I dine in. That’s very misleading and I wasted money, time, gas, & I now have to find food elsewhere.

Diner Review №194

Neighborhood favorite. Flavors are always spot on. Clean restaurant. Great service. A few favorites are the fried grouper with panang, veggie fried rice with chicken/salmon, pad Thai.

Diner Review №195

Diner Review №196

Diner Review №197

The food is good and it is not overly priced. Due to COVID-19 you can no longer eat in. Take out is also good.

Diner Review №198

Not my cup of tea. Customer service is a must for me.

Diner Review №199

Nice huge ever changing menu that i can work with they had fried advocate yep fried advocat.😳😳😳

Diner Review №200

Not bad, I would say average. Worth a try.
