Absolutely the best service and food!! If you like Thai food this is hands down the best. Everything is always clean and fast service. All the food is Amazing some of our personal favorites are the basil fried rice and the curry then for dessert you have to have the mango sticky rice.

From the road, this is not much of a place. Don’t judge the book by its cover, but open the door and step into a world full of sensory experience- flavor, sight, sound & smell. A friend recommended coming here for lunch & indeed is great spot to eat. Wonderful Pad Thai & super hibachi. The sushi bar is best I have seen, but full enough, I knew to pass this time. The fish looked great! Seating inside & out. ADA accessible

Wow! The food here is delicious! I ordered a Thai tea that’s pretty good but a bit sweet. The tom kha soup was tangy, sweet, and had the perfect amount of mushrooms and chicken. I also had the basil fried rice and it is hands down one of the best fried rices I’ve had in the area. There’s a reason it stays busy here. I’ll definitely be back.

This is one of the best places in our area to get Sushi. Let's face it, middle TN is land locked and getting good seafood is always a difficult thing to do. Year after year Smiley Thai has consistently delivered. The pineapple fried rice and Pad Thai are pretty tasty as well.
