Hands down one of the best restaurants in the Nashville area! Cocktails were great, but the food was out of this world! I got the Sesame Chicken and let me tell you, it was phenomenal. We cannot wait to go back. The atmosphere was wonderful and service was exceptional! So glad to have found a new spot for date night!
Randomly popped in for a late lunch and we were not disappointed. We ordered satay chicken, miso soup, ginger salad, the several rolls (dragon roll, spider roll, and x-men roll). It was all delicious. We will definitely be back!
Service was also great and the atmosphere was nice.
The service and food are amazing!!! Authentic Thai and Asian cuisine! Sushi chef is flexible and allows for custom orders! Blue and Narissa are wonderful and attentive servers! They know their clients by name and favorites! Full service bar for those who like alcoholic beverages. The food is absolutely delicious and it is the best Thai food I have found in this area!!!
Food tastes spicy, delicious and served hot only on weekends.
Tried on a weekday, doesn’t taste good at all; no spice and not served hot!
Food A+
Service was fantastic!
Best atmosphere for Thai I’ve been to.
Tonight was our first time here but we will make it back very soon.
Always an excellent meal here
Excellent food and service!
Fresh, tasty food. Red curry was super tasty. Dragon roll was surprisingly delicious.
Everything was super yummy & service was fine (eventhough they had 3 employees unexpectedly off today). Can't wait to go back & try more!
The reviews are so misleading and thought I would give it a try but was so disappointed . The food did not seem to be prepared fresh as all the veggies were soggy. I ordered chicken lo-mein and it had NO taste, no seasoning or sauce on it. The fried rice was oily and the spicy eggplant wasn’t spices and the veggies seemed old. I really miss the old Thai restaurant that was consistent and cooked your food fresh. The only thing I enjoyed was the spring rolls. DUSSIT THAI had been the BEST thai place! Also, I’m a huge energy person and the hostess/waitress seemed inconvenienced by me entering to place a to-go order-poor customer service. I do NOT recommend.
Very freindly,service was great and the cleanliness was awesome. Food was tasty, the spicy edename and red curry chicken was fantastic.

Good food!
Delicious food, good prices, great and friendly staff, 10/10 I recommend it to all of my friends and will continue to do so. I've been going there for years and will never stop.
WORST service ever they pick & choose who they want to take care of , as a server there attitude & lack of good service towards me & my fiancé makes me never want to come here again. As a diabetic as well i sat without anything to drink for about 25 minutes & they dropped off our food about 40 minutes later then never checked on us. They’re VERY RUDE WILL NOT BE BACK !! & ALSO WHEN I FIRST ARRIVED THEY WOULDNT LET ME USE THE RESTROOM “CUSTOMER ONLY” WHEN I WAS LITERALLY DINING IN WITH MY FIANCÉ , I AM DIABETIC & THAT IS INHUMANE!! DO NOT EAT HERE
Under cooked food and service is pretty bad.
Best Thai food in Nashville! Also love the sushi bar.
We have eaten here twice now and plan to become regulars. We’ve tried and loved the red curry, sushi, pad Thai, Tiger Beef salad, rice paper rolls w peanut sauce and for a b’day celebration, they brought out their hot home-made doughnuts w condensed milk — crazy good. Highly recommend you visit and support this casual, yet warm and inviting establishment. I want to try everything!
The pad Thai here is fantastic. We have also ordered the fried rice, sushi, and curry and have loved every dish they make. One of the best Thai restaurants we have tried in Nashville.
Dine in or take out the food is amazing every time. LOVE all the curries.
I was looking for food and found this place
This place is a hidden game
Atmosphere is very nice,fresh delicious food
I’d definitely recommend
This place is very good! We have been several times and have never had a bad experience.
I love this restaurant! The food is very fresh! The spring rolls in rice paper with shrimp and peanut sauce are some of the best I have had! The coconut soup is also noteworthy. Shocker: they make great cocktails! Perfectly paired with the food!
The service and food are amazing!!! Authentic Thai and Asian cuisine! Sushi chef is flexible and allows for custom orders! Blue and Narissa are wonderful and attentive servers! They know their clients by name and favorites! Full service bar for those who like alcoholic beverages. The food is absolutely delicious and it is the best Thai food I have found in this area!!!
Love this place especially since their new management took over.
Reasonably priced, lots of options, everything I’ve had has been really good! Nice to have this level of Asian quality food in this area!
Great customer service. Awesome food 😋. I can't get enough of awesomeness.
It's good food it is fast and the service is nice
. they are not overly nice but she does her job with a. Smile
We never go there when other people are there.vit may just be our timing but it's always empty for lunch
This place has the best food! The panang is superb. A real treat!
My wife and myself had been frequent diners at this establishment, however last night we decided to go and have dinner there and was expecting excellence in food and service as we have always had, however our experience last night was subpar at best. We ordered orange chicken that tasted as of it had been cooked with other meats and had a taste of burnt steak with considerably smaller portion than our previous visit and I was told it's because the rice paper is larger giving the appearance of a smaller portion by a male that worked there not to mention the female waitress that acted as if we were a problem to serve. The 2 orders of crab Rangoons tasted as if they had been refried several times and we were give a new order by the same male worker to correct this issue. In the end we paid $60 for this. Not worth the money don't go here as a first choice. We are very dissapointed as the level of service and quality of food was far below what we have experienced multiple times before. Not sure what's going on here but for the owner of this business you need to get your act together if you plan on serving in this hard economic time with this business
Food is absolutely amazing and cooked to order so it takes a little longer but is definitely worth the wait! Showroom friendly staff as well. We will definitely be back soon!
Love this place!
Randomly popped in for a late lunch and we were not disappointed. We ordered satay chicken, miso soup, ginger salad, the several rolls (dragon roll, spider roll, and x-men roll). It was all delicious. We will definitely be back!
Service was also great and the atmosphere was nice.
I ordered the chicken green curry it has so much flavor I will definitely be back simply delicious😋
We were visiting The Hermitage and felt like Asian food for lunch afterwards. This place is EXCELLENT! The food is fresh, well-executed, and nicely presented. The menu is diverse and you can see and taste the attention to detail and high quality ingredients.
Very good experience very kind very good people
I have been here three times so far and they never disappoint! If you are looking for a yummy sushi spot with reasonable prices I would recommend. Also, the bathrooms are super clean.
I go with my grandma almost every week. The food is amazing and Rocky, the owner, is the sweetest man!
10/10 recommend Umami Thai!
For such sushi, this is a high price. Kroger-level sushi. The price is high, and the sushi is not tasty!
Excellent Sushi & Sashimi
Food is great, excellent service
Umami Thai is a wonderful restaurant! They were great when they were Dusit Thai, and they've made major improvements to the atmosphere since changing their name. However, the food has remained the freshest and best Thai food in town. I've enjoyed this place over the years, and I highly recommend trying it!
Everything was fresh and hot! I loved everything I ordered and you do not feel overly full and sluggish afterwards. I will definitely be back to try more dishes because it was awesome!!!!
Fabulous food! Service is great. My new favorite Thai restaurant in the area. Even better than some I’ve been to in downtown Nashville. Highly recommend!
Horrible
Best Thai food in Middle Tennessee and best Panang Curry I have EVER had! So much flavor. I wasn’t able to get our waiters name unfortunately, but he was incredible and his recommendations were spot on. Our 1.5 year old daughter was getting a little antsy and he brought her food out so quickly without us even having to ask! My husband loved his Katsu ramen and our daughter loved her chicken fried rice. The ambience was great, too! We can’t wait to come back!
This place is amazing!! My husband and I have already been twice in the past 2 weeks. Amazing service, nice atmosphere and delicious food!! We were so impressed and will definitely be regular customers!
One of my go to places for dinner. Great food and a very nice staff. The atmosphere is nice, and it's a perfect option for quick takeout. I'm not sure why some people mention the portion size. Perhaps it depends on the dish, but I always get Pad Thai and easily get two meals out of it.
Flavor was amazing! I had chicken curry stir-fry and two Unagi rolls. 26.00 While taste was amazing, there was minimal chicken in dish. Like other reviews I agree the portions were on the small side. I left still very much hungry. If they increased portions and quantity of each ingredient, not just add more rice, I think it would have been 10/10. As it sits now, the price point combined with small portions give it 3 stars for me and a low chance of return sadly.
First time going to Umami Thai. The food was great! The service was great. They were helpful with helping me order. This place is such a vibe. If I’m taking the time to actually do a review, then you know it was an awesome experience.
Great Thai and sushi! Very friendly staff.
My daughter and I each ordered the the Ramen. Somewhat tasty. However, the portions are really inadequate for $17 each. We both left still hungry.
Authentic! Loved the food, Umami!!!
Dude… cleanest bathrooms I’ve ever seen. Food was incredible. 100% Recommend.
I can't say enough good things about this place. The place is super clean and nice in the inside. You can tell when a place takes pride in what they do because of the amount of effort that's given but you wanna know about the food though right? I had the steak fried rice, chicken fried rice and the cowboy roll. The ingredients were high quality. I takes me back back to a place I use to eat at in my childhood and it's 🔥🔥🔥 10/10
I love this place. I currently live in Antioch, but my job is in Hermitage. I've ordered lunch from Umami, twice so far, and was satisfied each time. The staff is friendly and professional. &the food is delicious. I would definitely reccommend!
Amazing Service, Amazing People and Amazing Food!!
My fiancé and I have tried several places that serve sushi in the area and this is one of our top spots now. All the food we have tried so far has been delicious and the service is great!
Amazing experience! Staff is super friendly and food was great! Definitely will be back.
Place looked clean, server was nice and consistent but the food was gross. The pat Thai smelled literally like dog food. The sushi made my wife throw up right after. But that’s not the worst part. I of course refused to pay for my meal do to it smelling like dog food and not eating anything on my plate. The owner followed me in to Kroger to confront me on why I thought the food was bad. I explained to him my opinion and he got mad. When I was finished in Kroger he was outside and started starring at me while I loaded my truck with groceries. I felt very harassed. I don’t recommend this restaurant do to him harassing me while I was shopping.
This place is not only under a new name and new management, but everything is upgraded… From the food, to the atmosphere, to the service! I highly recommend Umami Thai!
Umami Thai is a culinary oasis! I recently dined there and was blown away by the exquisite flavors of their Pad Thai - perfectly balanced sweet, sour, and savory notes danced on my palate with each bite. The Green Curry was a fragrant masterpiece, brimming with tender chicken and vibrant Thai herbs. And let's not forget their Tom Yum Soup, a comforting bowl of spicy and tangy goodness. With each dish expertly crafted and bursting with authentic Thai flavors, Umami Thai has become my go-to spot for a taste of Thailand in Tennessee. Highly recommended!
Highly recommend and I can’t wait to go back. The restaurant is designed nicely and the food is incredible!!
I come here very often and it's one of the best places to have Thai food and sushi , the servers are very nice and ask for sirirat she is very sweet and will help with whatever you need.
When it comes to Thai, I would consider myself well diversed. I've ordered 2xs from this resturant, both to-go orders. Curry each time, I was pleased (except I asked swap out one veggie for another - and each time is was not done). 2nd time ordered was to-go order as well and was high monetary amount. I ordered a lot so I could have left overs the next day and a diveresity of entrees to feed 3. Fried Calamari was a disappointment. Very mininum amount given and the rings were no bigger than a quarter - I won't buy again. When you think Orange Chicken, you'd think you get about the same quanity as any other establishment. This was not the case. Chunks of chicken was minuinum, small nuggets and barely teasers on a plate - I will not buy again. Thai Ice Tea - water down colored water with a huge splash of cream. I also put in a request for light ice - it was filled to the top. Maybe took 5 sips and it was gone - I will not buy again. Above is not all I ordered, but out of the 5 items I did, so far I will only recommend their Curry.
We absolutely loved UMAMI Thai!!! Excellent flavor...great atmosphere and service!! Will definitely return soon!!! YUMMY THAI FOOD!!
Best crab rangoon I’ve ever had. Delicious
They have updated the place and it looks so nice. Food is always good and now they have a full sushi bar
Really delicious food and the service was great.
Excellent food. Love the Pad Thai here. The service is outstanding and the newly updated dining room is beautifully done
I highly recommend Umami Thai! The atmosphere is casual and welcoming; staff and ownership are very friendly. Great service and great food. I was surprised and pleased with the presentation of the food. They play good music and have a selfie-worthy flower wall. They take a lot of care to make sure it’s a 10/10 experience.
Food was amazing, staff was amazing. I don’t mean to sound like I’m puffing this place up but I genuinely think I found my new favorite restaurant! 😂
This place has blown me away! The food is so fresh, and the service is incredible. 10/10 recommend the noodles with peanut sauce + the massaman curry!!
I never really write reviews, but this place deserves 5 stars.
I've gone a couple times and everything has been delicious so far, especially their curry.
A lot of diverse Asian food options, great service, and chill vibes.
More people need to know about this restaurant.
Every time we come in it’s fantastic food and service, and I’ll definitely come back and is becoming a new favorite in hermitage!!
Great place! We had an excellent experience all around. We will be back very soon. Thanks for your amazing service!
Awesome green curry. Not too sweet and they don’t skimp on veggies!
This has got to be one of the best if not the best kept secret of Hermitage. I honestly hope that changes soon. The food here is immaculate from the fresh ingredients to the prepared per order style cooking. The sushi pieces are huge and perfect. The ramen and curry are exceptional as well. Whatever you get, make sure you start with Crab Rangoon, best I've ever had.
My go-to for all things delicious!
Don't be afraid of your unknown. The staff at Umami Thai will walk you through your taste palate and find a flavorful meal for you. Select your spice level to meet your needs from a very diverse menu. Admittedly, I choose mild and that's perfect for me. The new sushi bar is upscale and has a nice selection of options. Bar available.
The owners have redone the interior, and it's bright and clean with beautiful murals on the walls. The menu is extensive, and everything we tried was fresh, delicious, and extremely flavorful. Service was excellent. We will be regulars now for sure!
Remodeled and renamed but still delicious Thai food.
Best Thai I’ve had in a long time!! Googled Thai when I was out running errands and this placed popped up. Decided to give it a try and I’m glad we did! Service was quick and very friendly. We got pad Thai chicken, Philadelphia roll and a Thai tea to split between my daughter and I. They were all great. Best pad Thai I’ve had in our area! The staff was so sweet with my daughter and brought her our special chop sticks and made the experience fun! Decor is updated and everything looks clean!
Great fusion restaurant with a lot of choices. It was perfect for our large family group. There were choices for various food needs. Everyone left satisfied: Vegetarian, gluten free, and even us omnivores.
My wife and I ate here tonight and it was amazing. We had the Shoyu and the Tonkatsu ramen and it was some of the best we have ever had. We will be returning to try more of the menu.
We stopped in today for an early dinner. The food was great and the service was stellar. I had the red curry bento box which came with a bowl of curry, rice, a spring roll, a dumpling and a small California roll. It was a generous amount of food and I like that it had a little taste of everything. Highly recommend.
They recently changed the name and decor from Dusit Thai. I absolutely love this place! Their tom kha soup is fire and I really wish more people would eat here. They’ve been here for 40 years! Sooo good.
Awesome pad Thai and Penang!
The staff was amazing and answered any questions I had about the food on the menu. the food was excellent and made with care. There’s also a mural being drawn on the walls and it’s looking pretty good so far. I definitely recommend this place.
This place is amazing! I am a Thai food fan, but never have I had thai food this FLAVORFUL! Highly recommend this restaurant for not only the food (taste and portions), but the atmosphere too. Check out the pics of the hand paintings on the walls as well as the beautifully decorated sushi and curry dishes!!!!
I ordered basil fried rice with my adjustments and forgot to mention “no eggs”. Well I realized when I got the container and asked the waiter, Rocky, that I forgot to mention this piece but I don’t eat eggs. Before I could continue he took the container and tells me they can make another one for me!!! He really didn’t have to do this, but I appreciate him and the gesture so much! Fantastic service, amazing food, beautiful ambiance and great company. What more could you ask for!?
Do not sleep on this place!!! I came here two nights in a row!
We love this place! Awesome food, awesome people—always!
Best Thai food in the city. The beef teriyaki is great. The jalapeños chicken is a go to for me. Great service and great people.
Some of the BEST Thai food I have had in some time! Staff was personal and friendly. Restaurant was very updated and clean!! Highly recommend!!
This place is great! I have no complaints on the service,food,or atmosphere! Honestly, I'm surprised it's still a hole-in-the-wall!
Great place to bring a group of people
Lovely atmosphere! Wonderful workers, so nice and understanding. We came with a big group, and they were super understanding and kind!
Good
Pretty good. Good service.
The red curry is amazing. The service is great!
Love the food and the presentation! I go there a couple times a week and enjoy it every time. Friendly atmosphere!
We came at a busy time, but once they caught up we had prompt service. Food was delicious and the presentation is upscale. Bathrooms are clean and overall seems updated and new. Try them out. 😁
I have a wide palate. I know Thai food. I’ve ate at most Thai and Vietnamese restaurants in Nashville, Texas, ATL AND California. But This restaurant is one of cleanest, best atmosphere and best authentic food in the Nashville area Hands Down!!
This is the best place to eat ♥️ they are so very nice making you feel like your at home. Never letting your drink run low and the food is to die for. If you have never eaten there you need to try it you will love the food. ♥️
