This eatery offers Thai noodles, curries & soups delivered in warm, serene surroundings.
I’ve never had Thai food before but I’d thought we’d try something different for my mom’s birthday; it had been about 30 yrs since my parents had Thai lol. Overall, it was delicious & the service was fantastic! I always knew I would love curry but now that I know for sure, I want it on everything! Haha, can’t wait to return! 🍛🤤😋
The atmosphere and ambiance is so beautiful so we were so excited to try this place! We were disappointed real quick!! The food is bland with no real flavor. We told the waiter that the food was not good and his response was “sorry you didn’t like it” and didn’t even try to offer anything else or fix the situation. Not only that, but he didn’t even take it off the bill! Never going again! Such terrible service and food. I’m not sure how it has such great reviews.
The best Thai food I’ve ever had! Beautiful atmosphere or efficient carry out. Not always open so check hours first.
In a world where Inflation has ran crazy. It is nice to sometime go out to eat with Family and or Friends or Order Carryout. Now in this present day it is a privilege to do so. I couldn't believe the service at the Thai Emerald. I ordered Dinner for carryout and When I arrived the Woman at the door was so Unpleasant and rude. She asked my name handed me a Bag that had no Napkins or Eating utensils. When I asked the waitress for the items she snickered at me and said “we don't give any of that unless you ask.” Then she walked off from me. I never got to ask. I went to the nearest QT for eating utensils and Napkins. After I pumped Gas. I will never go to restaurant THAI EMERALD EVER AGAIN. ever again. There are so many other good Thai Restaurants in the area. Rudeness and Bad customer service will never be okay.
Thai Emerald is one of my go to Asian Restaurants whenever I’m in the area/mood. The taste is always on point! Thank you Thai Emerald for the taste of goodness…

Staff was very helpful, will be coming again!
The cashew nut chicken is always amazing.
We've been coming here for a number of years and everything we try is delicious

Incredible atmosphere. Absolutely delicious food. Visited for the first time a few days and will definitely be back! Highly recommend.
I had many Thai foods but this restaurant's Green Curry is very delicious
Best Thai Food I've had and great service. Try the Thai Angel Noodle and the Garlic Dish!!
We have been coming here to dine in as well as get take-out for over 11 years. Always consistent in freshness and quality of food. Highly recommended!
I reviewed this restaurant 3 years ago and gave it 5 stars, we went tonight, and I am lowering it to 2 stars. At our last few visits, the portions were a lot smaller. We both ordered chicken curries. Both of us had very little chicken on our plates. Both the red and green curries lacked flavor. Also the prices have increased for both the food and wine. The atmosphere there is nice if you like subdued lighting like we do. I asked for extra spice. Instead of adding it during cooking, the waiter brought out 2 small bowls of obviously pre-used spices. It was over $85 for our food and wine. It was double the price for the expectation.
I sadly probably won’t be back they have made portions smaller and are charging a lot more including $4 for a fountain drink. Food is usually good at least but was less quality this time.
Amazing ambience and service and the food is great too. The drunken noodles were a little odd (had a little tomato ketchup taste), but still tasty. The curries are excellent!
Great food and excellent service. We'll be back again.
Quality food
Great ambiance and authentic food
The chicken in coconut soup was very dry and old. The pad thai had no bean Sprouts, peanuts, or egg...just noodles with a little bit of chicken..even the pad thai sauce was wrong..it tasted like they added vinegar...for $35 ...it was a bust! Will never go back..very disappointed.
Very good food with a nice atmosphere
My favorite Thai restaurant
Excellent food, different types of food very well cooked with. excellent taste.Little more improvement in the service can take this place still higher 🙏 place with more and more new customers Wishing you all the BEST 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Always enjoy the atmosphere and the quality of service and food is outstanding. Perfect date night dinner.
This is my all time favorite spot for Thai food. Everything is delicious, and the staff are wonderful. Love it!
Awesome food. Great friendly service. Go there once a week
If you're looking to try a new place, Thai Emerald cannot be beat for the convenience and price! There's rarely a wait to dine in, and take out is always perfectly done.
Try the cashew nut chicken with a side of spring rolls; you won't regret it!
It was a family gathering they offered foods all of us picky eaters enjoy.
Food was delicious; wait staff was pleasant and attentive
Thai Emerald was nice but the food was just ok. We ordered the Amazing Chicken and nightly special (lemongrass chicken with red curry). Both had a good sauce but the chicken was over cooked. The red curry was flavorful but I’m glad I got the “hot” level. Service was very quick for drinks and appetizers but we waited quite a while for our food. However I think the kitchen was overwhelmed because several who can in after us got their food shortly after us with minimal wait. Waitstaff and hostess were very nice and accommodating.
Best Father’s Day restaurant experience ever! Thai Emerald delivered on all 3 of my key eating requirements: food quality; value; and overall enjoyment. I give extra bonus points for the deliciousness and authenticity. I had the Green Curry Grouper with a “hot” level of spiciness. About the equivalent of a fresh grilled jalapeño eaten straight. See picture.
Nice food with good service!
The food did not meet expectations based on past experience in other Thai restaurants. The chicken pad Thai had hard, dry chicken with gummy noodles; the pad see ew was marginally better. The nearly $30 crispy grouper in green curry was super soggy (why fry at all?) and swimming in a very thin, overly sweet curry with crunchy red peppers. The papaya salad wasn’t even close to anything I’d had before. Truly tasted raw with a lack of blending and sauce. I wanted to like this place based on reviews and proximity, but at nearly $90 for takeout for a family of three, it doesn’t meet the hype.
Just generally “meh.”
Good food!!
We’ve been coming here for about 15 years and still LOVE it. Food is great. Service friendly and welcoming. Excellent background music. Lovely outside seating in warm weather. Highly recommend!
The staff is so friendly and accommodating even with high maintenance customers. The food is very fresh and good. You don't feel rushed to get in and get out. Have both indoor and outdoor seating.
Amazing food, intimate atmosphere, great service, reasonable prices. I keep going back for more.
After visiting Thailand this is one of the inky Thia restaurants I'll eat at.
I’ve never had Thai food before but I’d thought we’d try something different for my mom’s birthday; it had been about 30 yrs since my parents had Thai lol. Overall, it was delicious & the service was fantastic! I always knew I would love curry but now that I know for sure, I want it on everything! Haha, can’t wait to return! 🍛🤤😋
What was this? Who’s version of Thai cuisine is this? Beyond disappointed drunken noodle was nothing like it’s supposed be. Talk about kill a craving. The coconut soup was watered down. First and last time!
Have patronized this establishment for about fifteen years and never had a bad experience! Food is always "top-notch." Only thing I find a disappointment is they discontinued serving their Tom Kha soup in the large chafing bowl during COVID and have not offered it since. 🙁
Tried it for the first time for dinner. Our food was very good. The restaurant was very hot and stuffy. I saw the thermostat on the wall said 79° Inside in winter. Not sure if system was broken. Hopefully that was a fluke. I wish it was closer to me for takeout. Would eat there again.
Thai Emerald is a gem and one I stumbled across one night looking for Thai food in Roswell. The flavors are amazing in all of the dishes, the Phanaeng curry is delicious, one of the best I’ve had in Atlanta, second to Thailand. Staff is always welcoming and they are never too busy if you go in the evenings. Highly recommend this restaurant!
Get the Emerald Cashew Chicken with pineapple rice. Delectable.
Great quiet restaurant with good service and delicious food
So salty and such a bad service place. The soup tasted bad so we asked to replace to spring roll. She refused to replace because we already tasted. How do we suppose to know it bad if we don't taste?
Small plain dark nothing special salty food! Even though we requested less salty it came out very salty!!! Terrible service!
Great food!
Ambiance and service were great but the food was not authentic or good. The calamari was flavorless and chewy. Pad Kee mao tasted like it had tomato sauce in it and lacked spice. The cashew chicken dish and pineapple fried rice were also not good. We were really looking forward to trying this place because of the amazing reviews but left disappointed.
Our favorite go to place for Thai food. Very friendly and courteous staff. The menu has great options. Must try their drunken noodles.
We were celebrating a 95th birthday and the restaurant let us put some decorations on the tables & bring a cake. There were eleven of us and I loved my minced chicken basil eggplant dish with thai level spiciness. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their meal except my husband who ordered a pad thai dish (he said it had no flavor). Everyone was a vegetarian except my husband and I. I was too hungry and forgot to take pictures of our appetizers and entrees. Sorry, I ate my whole meal...
Excellent food and service. I had the Emerald Special
This place definitely has the best Thai Food in town! It’s very authentic. Great service and the manager is a very respectful young man. 10/10. Highly recommend the Emerald Special.
I’ve eaten Thai food all around Atlanta and Thai Emerald is my favorite. Consistently excellent prepared dishes and wonderful service. The red snapper with light Thai breading over grilled vegetables in an amazing sauce should win an award. All their fish dishes, soups, and noodle dishes are incredible. The pineapple rice with cashew chicken, Omg. This place will never disappoint!
The Amazing Chicken is incredible! Cashew chicken was great too! Splendid service is impeccably efficient and friendly!
Dinner was very good. Service was great. The Spring rolls were delicious. Portions were perfect!!!
Went for lunch and had green curry and an emerald special. The portions were perfect and service was fantastic!
My family has been coming here for years. Always a 5 star experience with food as well as service. We have tried other Thai places around the area and Thai emerald is by far the most authentic and delicious.
Went in to eat at 920 and even though they close at 10 was told I could only get To Go. No thanks. Food is good but not worth the price of service.
Good service. Good food.
Excellent Service, excellent food, and very nice ambience.
Food is ok. Portion if very small for what your paying ($18 for lunch curry special). Won't be back.
Very authentic Thai food. The staff were courteous and friendly. Must visit if you like Thai food.
Good food. Not fully authentic. Friendly staff. Nice setting.
Thai Emerald is far and away the best Thai restaurant in the Atlanta Area!
Hands down, the best and most authentic Thai food that is AMAZING. I live in NYC but am from the area and literally every time I come home to visit, this is either stop #1 or 2. The staff is warm and kind. The food is some of the best I’ve ever had - and I’ve been to Thailand half a dozen times.
Must have: Cashew Nut Chicken. To die for and all I usually ever order.
Also has a great outdoor patio for warm evenings.
Love this restaurant! Have dined in and have gotten take out several times. The Thai Green Curry is my favorite. The vegetables are always fresh and never over cooked or soggy. The ambiance inside is surprisingly so intimate and romantic. There are candles on every table and in the nicer evenings, they have a gorgeous outdoor patio with string lights. Definitely a nice option outside of the hustle and bustle of Canton St.
Portions were small and the taste only so-so. For the price, it's not worth it. After eating there, I'm here at 1000 for pizza cause I'm still hungry. Yeah,small portions, at least what I ordered was small.
My family has been going to Thai Emerald for over 15 years. This place never disappoints; the food is amazing and the service is always friendly. You have to try the cashew nut chicken, it is perfectly sweet, spicy and always fresh. We always stop in whenever we are in town.
My fave Thai Restaurant! Never had a bad meal… or service! Noi the owner is a wonderful person with a gift of showing customers lots of attention. Been going there since day 1!
5 forks up!
Best Thai Food around. I enjoy the atmosphere of the restaurant and the staff treated us great. Love this place for eat in or carryout.
Food was great. Service was ok - perhaps because they were shorthanded. The quality of the food made up for the inadequacies.
I eat Thai at least twice a week. I'm always trying at least a different one each week.
Thai Emerald is the best in the metro that I have found.
Family owned and operated, they have been #1 on the list for several years.
If you are planning on dining in, be early. The service and hospitality is wonderful!
Best Thai around. Wife loved chicken curry. Brother said coconut soup best ever. I got special shrimp with 3 sauce. Very good. Very good experience. By 6 restaurant was filing up so it's not a secret.
Great food and friendly staff. It is an owner operated restaurant so they are doing their best to serve the customers. Highly recommended.
The Best Cashew Nut Chicken I’ve ever had. Service is always outstanding, nice atmosphere and very friendly staff. The flavors are so unique and you won’t leave hungry. One of our favorite places to eat, period. Highly recommend you give Thai Emerald a chance… you’ll want to hurry back.
Nice atmosphere, kids love it. Food is always good.. though a touch on the sweet side.
For this area definitely my go to for Thai.
I've eaten here many times and always had an enjoyable experience. The presentation is always exquisite and the food delicious.
Always a good meal
Excellent Thai food, very good service, and short but good wine list.
Excellent restaurant with comfortable indoor and outdoor seating options. The lunch specials are great. If you're looking for good Thai food in Roswell, this should be at the top of your list.
The portion size for the dinner entree menu is really less. We have had thai food from many restaurants but none had these small portion sizes. It is very expensive at emerald thai for such small portion sizes. The chicken used in satay chicken was very dry and rubbery and the basil fried rice was equally disappointing. Will not be ordering from here again.
I have been to many Thai Restaurants, and by far this place is the best, most flavorful, freshest and most cared for food I have ever eaten. The same faces have been there for the last 15 years, and the food is just as good as the first time I went.
Patio service was nice and well spaced out. Food was good but, not as authentic as we thought it would be. Not very spicy either... most Thai food has a kick. Dried peppers were used instead of fresh which might have an impact. Service was good.
The Thai hot red curry, phenomenal. It wasnt hot enough for me but the waiter told me I coukd get Extra Thai hot. Wish I wouldve kniwn that when zi told him I like it super hot when I ordered
Went today with my family, the receiptionist is only interested in greeting specific customers. I went with my parents and family today. They dont even smile/greet the customers.
We ordered some basic thai appetizers like chicken satay etc. it took 30 mins for them to bring them out. Guess what the soup and appetizers both were cold. The soup was buried with mushrooms felt like it was mushroom soup and tom yum.
We asked for appetizer plates, those were not brought out, the entrees arrived. They were average tasting. I would not visit again. There are better tasting thai restaurants in the area.
This place is extremely mediocre, and I'm shocked at how many positive reviews there are on here. I'll just assume that others who rate this place highly have not had good, flavorful Thai food. No one that's an actual food critic or has had legitimate Thai food would EVER rate this place 5 stars. The Tom Kha soup was watered down and absolutely tasteless, and every single item tasted like it was missing an ingredient. They're also stingy with their portions, and their prices are ridiculous for what you get -- $85 for a two person takeout order with no leftovers. Try Erawan then rate this place... Not even close.
Had a great experience last night. Ordered spring rolls and chicken red curry. Both were great. I asked for the chicken to be thai hot and was pleased how spicy it was. Presentation was beautiful. Will certainly return
Amazing food in perfectly sized portions to feel full but not stuffed. Very clean and elegant restaurant while not being too formal. Perfect place for a date or double date.
Amazing Thai restaurant. Best in the area!
The food is wonderful! Restaurant is very pretty. I personally like that there is no loud music and no tv!
Very clean, great service, and the amazing chicken and the cashew nut chicken is amazing!
The atmosphere is amazing and great service. Green curry grouper is delicious. Will be coming back!
Way too expensive for mediocre food three of us had lunch and the bill after tip was $90
Very good Thai food. Would have given 5 stars but they were very skimpy on their papaya salad. It was delicious but the portion was tiny. We asked the server about it and he just laughed and walked away. I think he thought we were joking.
Great food but very skimpy on papaya salad. Not worth $7.
Do Not order the fried rice! Horrible! And management is not pleasant. I don’t recommend at all.
Good food, friendly staff.
Great place with awesome food. Only complaint is that the portions are kinda small taking into consideration the price. But other than that is is amazing.
Very good red curry my only complaint is I wish it came with more rice. They were pretty busy on a Sunday night around 7pm. Nice patio for outdoor dining available when looking for safe outdoor dining options during covid
My husband and I just had a wonderful dinner here! The outside seating area is so nice and quiet, despite the road being close by. With all of the plants surrounding you, you hardly notice. The food and service were absolutely excellent. Serving sizes were just right, and the taste was amazing! We will be back!
Excelente !!!!
I love Thai food, nice restaurant and tasty food. I Yellow curry, I just felt curry quantity is less compared to other Thai restaurants I have been. Regardless it’s the finest restaurants in Roswell.
Great food and service
The staff are not very friendly
Food is good. Massaman Curry is consistently a favorite.
Amazing food and considerate customer service. Truly the best Thai in the Roswell area.
Very kind. Very professional. Will always come back.
The basil rolls are amazing.
Great food, great experience.
Not local, visting Roswell, my sister said it's her favorite, and I can see why ... All our dishes were well prepared, average size portions. Prices fair too!
We did pickup. Food was just okay. We previously dined here and enjoyed, but we were disappointed this time. Just fair.
Always a favorite of ours. We love the patio dining. Any of their curry dishes are amazing, the Thai angel noodle is incredible, and the spring rolls are crave-worthy!
Food was very good, staff respectful of Covid. It was pricey, but it is Roswell/Alpharetta so what do you do?
Ordered take out for dinner. Pad Thai was very very dry. With more sauce I'm sure it would have been very good. Satay chicken was OK. TAKE OUT and didn't get any cutlery or napkins. Must have just gone on a bad night.
Food Good; Service Good; Nice Atmosphere!
The calamari are perfect! Nice dinner.
Love everything we’ve ever ordered at Thai Emerald. Love anything with their hot garlic sauce on it - especially soft shell crab or grouper! Three flavor salmon is excellent as are the basil rolls!!! And mango sticky rice is yummy!
Went here for the first time, its honestly just ok. Food wasn'tgreat, and wasn't bad either. I had to doctor it to my taste, so I don't think I'll be a return customer.
Great food, but portions could be a little bigger.
Good Thai food. Service is also good. Highly recommended.
This is the best place for Thai food in Roswell!! Always excellent food and service
I understand running long ticket times because you haven’t been open for dine in and it’s Mother’s Day, but I placed my order to go by phone at 5:35pm and it’s now 6:49pm and still waiting.
Don’t quote 40 minutes and then miss the mark by over 50%. I know you don’t want to turn away business today or say anything that might prevent someone from ordering, but this is poor form. I will, in the future, wait to add the tip until after I receive the food, not while placing the order
Finally have the order at 7 o’clock. I’m guessing at least some of it is it packed in his bag for 20 minutes while waiting for the rest of the food to finish. I just hope it’s as good as it normally is
Three times quoted time.
Was told 40 minutes when I called and it took an hour and 20 minutes.
amazing thai restaurant!! my parents took me here all the time growing up
so Good!!
Excellent selection and very friendly staff and manager. The curry and Rangoon shrimp are favorites. More of a dinner place rather than a lunch place.
Delicious, Thai hot was spicy and tasty. Friendly staff!
There chicken cashew nut is the best I have ever had, make it Thai hot.
I thoroughly enjoy this place, have been here multiple times. Panang curry and Pineapple fried rice are my favorite dishes. I highly recommend you to try those. Other dishes that I liked here are Basil shrimp roll, Pad kee mow, and Masaman curry.
What a great find. If you drive too fast you will pass it. Quick fresh and tasty.
Very attentive staff. Love the Emerald Special.
Absolutely fantastic
They are one of our favorite restaurants.An absolute must try if you are in the area. There cashew nut chicken and basil fried rice are both amazing.
Great food!
