Diner Review №1

Excellent food and service!

Diner Review №2

Much better...the new owner is doing much better.

Diner Review №3

We just went to Lamai Ban Thai and while it was great before it is MAGNIFICENT now. Everything we ate was so delicious and the ingredients fresh. They recently got new owners who obviously are passionate about great and authentic Thai food. We definitely wish them best of luck and look forward to going back very soon

Diner Review №4

I've never had Thai food before, it's ok. I didn't hate it, but it might just not be my cup of tea.

Diner Review №5

Lama Ban Thai is better than any Thai restaurant in Atlanta and I’ve been to many. Everything is so good. Orakunya Is the real deal. Pictured is the Penang Curry. Best Thai food ever!

Diner Review №6

Our first visit not good! The food was fair, but cold. We paid $40 for VERY small portion. It was like our food was someone’s leftovers! Will not be back! Eating out these days is a crap shoot.

UPDATE on 12/4:

Not only is the food terrible and prices high, but the owner also responds to feedback on Google with a poor attitude. Good luck staying in business ! Changing my review from 2 Star to 1 Star!

Diner Review №7

First time here. Food and service was excellent. I will be returning.

Diner Review №8

The Thai food is Fresh with great flavors! Friendly staff and Owner ! Must try the pumpkin 🎃 curry!

Diner Review №9

The three of us have eaten at the Thai restaurant twice recently. Both times the appetizers and the main course were excellent. The wait staff took care of all our needs in a timely manner. There was pleasant music playing in background. Highly recommend. We will add this to one of our favorite places to eat.

Diner Review №10

This is not authentic Thai. Go to Nans Fine Dining in Atlanta if that's what you want.

Diner Review №11

Best food in Greensboro

Diner Review №12

Love this place. Problem I haven't been able to go in a while since time had changed to afternoons. I have work I do in Greensboro with other work mates about 7 times a year. I can only make at lunch time but no lunch no visit but it is an excellent place to eat and the food is aroi mak. Delicious.

Diner Review №13

We had a great meal with appetizers. The service was fast and friendly from the time we walked in. I had crab Rangoon to start and Pad Kra Cow medium as a dinner the flavor was amazing from all the fresh vegetables to the sauce, rice was cooked perfectly. If looking for Thai food near Lake Oconee and Greensboro I highly recommend stopping by Lamai Ban

Diner Review №14

Diner Review №16

This is a great restaurant and exactly what this area needs.

Diner Review №17

Garlic swai white fish, chicken pad Thai & cashew chicken were excellent! I will be back for more delicious food!

Diner Review №18

Family and friends were in town for a wedding and chose this spot to go to the night before. It did not disappoint! Great food, great service, great staff.

Diner Review №19

Crab fried rice .

Diner Review №20

Diner Review №21

We went here on a whim on our way back to Atlanta and were extremely surprised by the quality and presentation of the food. My girlfriend (chinese) loved that the deserts were not overly sweet and that the noodles were cooked authentically (which is hard to find in Atlanta). She was also exhausted from the 4 hour drive and long vacation, and eating here put a smile on her face👍(worth a generous tip). I can easily recommend this place to anybody.

Diner Review №22

This food never disappoints! Absolutely amazing!

Diner Review №23

Diner Review №24

We really love having a Thai place here at Lake Oconee. This place delivers every time we visit. Love the Panang curry. My favorite place for Pad See Eiw and the crab Rangoon is awesome.

Diner Review №25

May 23rd.
First off this is a very nice quiet place to grab a bite to eat, highly recommend.
Now for my experience, imma keep it short and sweet, I ordered the Thai wings (small, lack flavor, overly dress presentation, the only positive is that they were "hot and crisp") not recommend. I also got the beef Thai fried rice (Great dish, absolutely loved it, smokey, flavorful, cooked very well 9/10) highly recommend.
For dessert I was recommend the roti by my waiter, to be honest the dish he brought me was completely Is unedible, soggy, grease filled flavorless pieces of triangle pastry dough, the best thing about this was the condensed milk with it, the dish they served ME (talking about my personal experience) was trash. Maybe yours was better, but mine... unacceptable. All in all amazing Entree dishes, lack luster apps and dessert. 3.5/5 would come back just for the fried rice.

Diner Review №26

The food was absolutely delicious! My husband had the garlic chicken fried rice, and I had the green chicken curry. I ordered mine "hot," and it was exactly the right amount of heat that you'd expect from a Thai dish. All of the flavors balanced out perfectly, and the presentation was among the most beautiful I've seen! This is a great local spot away from the busyness of 44, and I'm so glad we found it today! We will be back regularly!

Diner Review №27

This place is on point! From the moment we walked in, so much stood out. The staff was constantly wiping down tables, the floors were clean, and everyone was friendly and inviting. So much detail went into this place. From the jazz music playing in the background to the dish presentation. Some places you go to will hide quality behind fancy spoon pushes and weird plate shapes. This place delivered not only the presentation but also the taste! We will definitely be coming back here!

Diner Review №28

Diner Review №29

Enjoyable experience with incredibly pleasant staff and delicious food. We ordered the Thai spring rolls, red curry and basil fried rice and loved it all. Will be back for sure!

Diner Review №30

Meh ….

Diner Review №31

Massaman curry was very good. And you MUST get dessert! Staff was super sweet. Great place. Will return!

Diner Review №32

Diner Review №33

Red curry seafood, excellent!

Diner Review №34

Tasty Thai

Diner Review №35

Everything about this meal was nasty! Both my husbands dinner and mine were under cooked and raw, right down to the rice noodles. I had to come home and microwave mine to be able to eat it. The sauce was nasty tasting and the only way I could get it down was to put some rice wine vinegar on it. The chicken was tough and chewy. The vegetables were raw as were the noodles. I highly suspect there is not a Taiwanese chef cooking this food. It tasted like an American trying to cook Thai food , but didn’t know what they were doing! I will not be back.

The staff were attentive and took good care of us, but that’s the only positive thing I have to say other than the place was clean including the restrooms. Don’t go there for the food, if you’re going!

Diner Review №36

Delicious

Diner Review №37

Phenomenal. We are a two pilot crew overnighted here and my copilot grew up in Hong Kong / Thailand. He said this is spot on. Exactly what you’d get if you were in the capital.

We will be back every time we overnight near here.

Diner Review №38

Stopped here for an early dinner. We had spring rolls, wings and shu mai. They were all tasty.

We had pad Kee mao, laab, and Tom yum soup all good but a little sweet instead of spicy. Still tasty...just looking for a little more kick.

Diner Review №39

August 2022 update: We again did take-out. Food was excellent although the servings appear to be a little smaller than last year. Crab Rangoon didn’t have a lot of filling. Prices seemed have gone up a little. Two entrees and an appetizer with no drinks was over $45. Still is one of our favorite area restaurants. 2022 photos have year date.

August 2021 update: another great meal. We ordered takeout. The place was packed, so I’d recommend reservations or takeout. This is great Thai so I’d recommend trying something new. The descriptions are great and the staff is very courteous and helpful. I tried Chicken Pad Kra Tiam and was not disappointed. So ditch the curries and go for an entree you have trouble pronouncing!!!!

May 2021 Update: We ordered take out and the food once again was excellent. Crab Rangoon were filed with a variety of ingredients. Chicken Penang Curry was flavorful. My Chicken Pra Ram, “Thai spicy” was the best I’ve had. Finally a dish spice enough to fully enjoy. Many restaurants won’t give you spicy because people return food that’s too hot for them. Spices were very well done not overwhelming, but complimented the dish. Parking is limited, but additional spaces are just down the strip mall.

2018 Review:Great Thai food, well beyond the usual curry dishes. We had an appetizer of shrimp in a blanket, I had a seafood dish called Hor-Mok Talay (I requested spicy) and my wife had pork garlic fried rice. For desert we shared sweet sticky rice. All great with exquisite flavors. Service was friendly and efficient. She was particularly patient when a table next to us didn’t know what to order. We also had beer and wine. Dining area was Thai atmosphere and a good size. If you want a meal that is truly different and will excite you taste buds, come here.

Diner Review №40

I love eating here! The staffs were so nice, everything just made by day here. 5 stars.

Diner Review №41

Delicious 😋, I had the duck with Thai rice, pineapple rice with shrimp and 2 serving of fresh shrimp rolls, it was all on point. My 5 and 7 year old loved it. Watch out for receipt shock. Will eat here as often as my budget will allow.

Diner Review №42

The food was alright. But there prices are way to high for what u get.
Because u can get the same thing at half the price in the restaurant in Miliageville

Diner Review №43

The food was just ok. It was missing an authentic taste when eating Thai food.

Diner Review №44

😒😒

Diner Review №45

went there today with a few friends the sweet tea tasted like chocolate milk don’t ask me how it just did crab rangoon was way to oily my black friend couldn’t even finish his chicken because it was so bad

Diner Review №46

Food wasn’t great , waiter was rude at the end

Diner Review №47

Very nice. Staff friendly. From a different part of Thailand than where I hang out! American fision. Very good tho. We will be back.

Diner Review №48

solid

Diner Review №49

Great adaptation of Thai food in America, which I don't think is easy. Tastes great. I ate my favorite dish of Beef Fried Rice with Tomatoes, and the Thai Salad tasted great. I bought it to eat at home. The taste is still delicious. If I eat it at the restaurant, I think it will be very delicious. I feel that it is not only delicious, it also feels the care of the food.

Diner Review №51

Diner Review №53

Diner Review №84

Duck pad thai is delicious. Also favorite peanut sauce ever!

Diner Review №85

I've visited Lamai Ban Thai monthly for almost four years. The food quality is great - authentic Thai. However, the staff other than the owner/chef turn over rapidly, and they are very hit-or-miss. Dine-in is your best option, as the many errors made in your order can be corrected. If considering take-out, you should fully unwrap and inspect your order before leaving; there is ALWAYS an issue, and best detected right away. Things like missing steamed rice for entrees, wrong entree, missing appetizer, and entree not made to order, such as 'no onions,' occur routinely. Price is relatively high, though it would be worth it if the service matched the food quality. One last tip: don't bother with trying to get 'double meat' on your entree. You'll pay a lot for no discernible difference. 5-star food, 1-star service; 2.5 overall.

Diner Review №86

Great cuisine, flavors are wonderful and if you enjoy Thai food this is it without having to halfway around the world.

Hands down the best Thai food south of Atlanta and west of Bangkok.

Diner Review №137

Excellent food and service. We eat here at least once a week.

Diner Review №138

Clean restaurant, pleasant waitresses, but the food lack the Thai spiciness that I know and love. Prices are comparable to other Thai restaurants that I visit. Doubt that I go back, just because there is better tasting Thai food elsewhere.

Diner Review №139

I was very pleased with the laid back atmosphere and tasty food! This smaller restaurant made up for it in taste! I had the red curry with rice and the dish was full of flavor! I would recommend giving this place a chance if you have the opportunity.

Diner Review №140

Diner Review №141

Good but not great food in a neutral bright and clean small (less than 20 tables) and quiet restaurant. It is not a place for a romantic dinner or a large party.

Good food but a little pricey. The staff was very friendly.

Great Thai curry and appetizers

Quiet but absolutely delicious food!
