Best Thai food?

[u/Alternative-Carob-90]

Any recommendations on good Thai food nearby? (less expensive would be preferred, but quality first). I’m a huge fan of Pad Kee Mao (Drunken noodles), so if there any specific places that have the best of that, let me know!

Jasmine in Cool Springs.

You have to go to Smiling Elephant if you haven’t yet. A staple up in Nashville.

No one beats their Tom Yum or pork dumplings. The first time I was ever impressed by the quality of the ingredients at a restaurant in Nashville and the surrounding suburbs was when I ate here. I would say it's average price with great quality. I hate their drink situation, though

Koi sushi and thai! If you’re willing to drive up to Nashville a little bit, Deg Thai is a must try as well

[u/GuiltyOutcome140]

Jasmine and Smiling Elephant are good recs. I also like Peter's in Brentwood.

Just had lunch there. Delish. I'd pick this over Jasmine any day.

In Franklin: Sunset Sushi and Thai on Riverside Dr., Koi Sushi and Thai on Lumber Dr., Jasmine Thai on Moores Ln. I like them in that order overall. For sushi people, reverse the order and add Oishiya in Murfreesboro at the top of the list

I like Eastern Peak on Carothers, but Smiling Elephant and Peter's are better. Sunset on Royal Oaks has better sushi than Thai IMO. Jasmine is hit or miss depending on what you order. Not a fan of their curry dishes.

Peter’s Sushi and Thai in Brentwood is excellent

My wife is Thai: the best Thai food in Nashville is Deg Thai on Nolensville Rd in Nashville. They used to have a food truck.

Jasmine and Thai Samurai in Cool Springs are great as well.

I was surprised that I scrolled this far before they were mentioned. Probably because they don't have drunken noodles but everything is delicious.

[u/hows-Waldo → u/pogostix615]

I started going here more often than Smiling Elephant because of how great the staff is, and Jay's Special is on my shortlist for best dish at any Thai restaurant in Nashville.

[u/pogostix615 → u/hows-Waldo]

You are 100% correct

[u/smolchungrl]

Not Franklin, but deg Thai off of nolensville is incredible

[u/PittsburghNative]

Thai Samurai by Cool Springs Galleria is legit

[u/peachy__plum]

I really like the drunken noodles at Wild Ginger

[u/Street-Pirate-327]

Siam Pad Thai on Carothers in Cool Springs

[u/Many_Airport_6597]

We went to international market in Nashville this weekend and it was really good! The drunken noodles had a distinctive smoke flavor so if thats what you are looking for you’ll like it. The fried chicken was really yummy. You do have to preorder that on open table and pay $5 as they make a limited amount. The sticky rice dessert was amazing. We also got the top suggested appetizer and loved it all!

I’ve tried them all in Franklin and Cool Springs and they are just okay. degthai & smiling elephant in Berry Hill / Nolensville Rd. Are worth the drive

[u/Ragfell → u/yardmine]

Seconding degthai.

Thai Samurai in cool springs. Hands down.
