    Very enjoyable anniversary dinner at Chai Yo in Atlanta. My wife had panko-style chicken and I had the chef's special seafood trio (lobster, scallops, and shrimp). Ambiance was great, drinks were delicious, and host and wait staff were amazing.

    Always a gem with elegant decor yet calm environment and deliciously flavourful food. My guest and I enjoyed the springrolls, Kai Siam pineapple chicken, and more than one delicious Chai Talay martini. As regulars, we commented that last night's textures and tastes were perhaps even more wonderful than we were used to, and left oh so satisified and inspired to continue the evening out. Must-visit for date night or a small-scale business gathering.

    The food was delicious but the service was so poor that it really ruined the overall experience, unfortunately. First the hostess didn’t tell our waiter we were seated so it took a long time to get service and we had to actually ask someone else to get our waiter so we could order a drink. Our side item we ordered never came out. The person that brought our food asked if we wanted and extra order of rice, which we replied yes, but never got it. Our waiter was very nice, but for the price point, the service should be stellar and it was not good at all. Disappointing given the food was actually very good.

    We all loved the ambiance in the restaurant and the staff were pleasant and friendly. Our server didn't come by our table as much after taking our orders and we needed things from him. Some of the food items were perfect (basil rolls, ice cream, dumplings) yet our entrees (fish, pork belly) were good but not excellent. Everything is good but not at the level of their sister restaurant (Nan Thai), which is perfection. We'll go back there again as we've had a better experience there in the past and this experience may have been an anomaly.

    *** Be sure to valet park and receive validation, other wise the cost of your parking will be the same as a lunch entree!*** We were greeted with a warm welcome and received great service through out. I initially ordered the Thai lunchbox and sent it back almost immediately. My entree was clearly left overs that appeared to be reheated more than once. We all know what overcooked, stale broccoli looks like. The beef was questionable in color. The texture of the chicken was off. Other entrees ordered were clearly cooked upon ordering and were fresh. Veggies crisp and bright in color. The difference and taste were quite visible. I sent my meal back and ordered the basil chicken. It was very good. Perfectly spicy. Stars deducted due to being served old food. Not cool. Don’t order the Thai lunch box, order something else. I noticed that no other tables around us ordered the Thai lunch box. First timer. Lesson learned.

    The atmosphere was very nice. I believe the menu is just too limited at dinner and our food was good but not great in my opinion so I am not sure it warranted the prices. However, we had good service and a nice evening overall. Could be a cool spot just to meet up for a drink.

    Service was very poor. We ordered drinks and they came when we where already half way through our meal. Ordered an appetizer to enjoy with drinks and they came together at the same time with our entre - so we had our entre and appetizer together with no drinks. Felt rushed, not organized and it was a poor service. Husband ordered sea bass and the way it was cooked, was not the best. I wish we could have a better experience

    Zen like balance of flavors, consistencies and spices… Started with a mind-blowing Cosmo with curaçao and a smoky mezcal concoction to die for (Lotus Blossom?). The Sea Bass and Panang Chicken Curry were reliably excellent, capped off by a hard caramel topped creamy Crème brûlée! Perfect birthday celebration! Kudos to Linda and team!!!
