I've never been to Thailand but I love Thai food. Tidewater has many Thai restaurants and this is one of the better ones. It seems more intimate and foreign than most. The decorations contribute to the mood. I've had a half dozen meals here and all in the restaurant were very good. Service was good most of those times but... More

Finally a Thai restaurant with some good beers! They have the Love Hefeweiss, Loose Cannon, and Golden Monkey tripel. Attractive decor, quiet, and a nice banquet-type room. Shrimp with basil, green curry,and pad Thai all tasty, but ask for the relish tray with pepper and fish sauces to tailor your flavor. More

I expected really good and authentic food after reading reviews here on tripadvisor. However, i was disappointed. The food wasn't as what we expected. We reached their 1/2 hour before they were about to close. Before asking us to sit, they asked if we would finish our dinner within their closing time. I never experienced anyone who works at a...

For the best Thai food this side of the Chao Phraya River, visit the Bangkok Garden Restaurant in Norfolk. The food is good and the decor is great, typically Thai with lovely wood paneling and Thai art all around. The service is friendly. Best of all, it is quiet. The semiprivate dining area is perfect for small groups. I enjoyed... More

The food was soooo good! I had the Coconut Chicken Soup, the Crab Rangoon and the Chicken Satay. Yes I pigged out because I can't get Thai food at home. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very nice - pretty and clean. The staff was exceptionally friendly, and the food was fantastic. We went at 3 pm on a Sunday... More
