Days after eating, my wife and I are still talking about this experience. Few restaurants combine outstanding food with service, and L'Thai does this to perfection. My wife and I were visiting Atlanta (we're from Nashville) and wanted to celebrate our anniversary. I made reservations several weeks before coming and when we did arrive we were treated like royalty (actually even better, like family), remembering it was our anniversary and we had driven a long distance. We have a 1 yr old daughter, who was a little irritable after the drive (so much so that my wife took her into out car so other patrons wouldn't be disturbed after our appetizers were served). Anyway the owner saw that the main entrees had arrived (I was eating alone) and asked me what car I drove, went to the parking lot, asked my wife to come in, and actually held our daughter calming her down while we ate! Talk about service (even the waitress took my daughter around the restaurant (beatifully decorated and stopped at the waterfall with fish making my daughter become content). The food was also superbly prepared. Highly recommend the chicken satay (the pieces were succulent, not dried out like most other restaurants). The 3 flavor fish (ours was snapper) was also out of this world. The shrimp fried rice was one of the best fried rice dishes I've ever tasted (and I'm a big fan of fried rice). The staff also surprised us with a lovely custard and rice desert for our anniversary. The only thing I hate about this restaurant is that it is located so far from our home! (Believe me, I tried convincing the owner to set up one in Nashville). All this and knowing everything was healthy (every ingrediant organic and freshly prepared) really put the exclamation point on this experience. If only other restaurants could learn that good food can be healthy as well as how much effect outstanding service has on the customer. Thanks again for the experience L'Thai, hope to return soon!
Pros: Treat you like family. Superb food. Romantic setting. Great service
Cons: there's only 1 location (far from my home in Nashville :) )
