SURIN WEST REVIEWS

Surin West in Birmingham, AL, offers an excellent dining experience with flavorful Thai cuisine and fresh sushi. The atmosphere is modern yet inviting, making it a great spot for both casual dining and special occasions. I started with the crispy squid as an appetizer, and it was perfectly fried—light, crunchy, and paired with a tasty dipping sauce. For my main course, I had the sweet and sour chicken, which was well-balanced with a delicious mix of tangy and savory flavors. The fried rice on the side was flavorful and cooked just right, complementing the meal perfectly. Service was friendly and efficient, and the portion sizes were generous for the price. Whether you're craving Thai food or sushi, Surin West is definitely worth a visit for a satisfying and flavorful meal.

Surin West is an absolute gem! From the warm, inviting atmosphere to the incredible food, this place never disappoints. The Thai cuisine is top-notch, with bold flavors, fresh ingredients, and beautifully presented dishes. Their sushi is always fresh, the curries are rich and flavorful. The service is fantastic—friendly, attentive, and quick, even during busy hours. Whether you're craving sushi, noodles, or a delicious curry, Surin West is the perfect spot for an amazing meal. Highly recommend.

Loved this restaurant. Got to go more often! Enjoyed my favorite appetizers and dish. Got to try the spicy coconut soup.

TASTE OF THAILAND REVIEWS

Absolutely amazed at this place ! Friendly people, amazing delicious food, good portions, good price, and the wood carvings and decoration just beautiful. I live in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and have to rely on New Orleans for a decent Thai place. But Hoover Alabama has them all beat. Excellent dining experience, nicest forks and spoons ive ever seen at a restaurant. Prices super reasonable. Food leaves tasty impression on you down the road. Highly recommend, we just googled a place and hit this hot spot.

I doordashed here the other night and saw that they sale Pho on the menu. Been seeing it on TikTok and really wanted to try it. It’s cold and raining today so I got the beef pho as it came. I didn’t need to add anything to it. 10/10. The customer service was excellent too. They are so nice. Will definitely be going back to try other dishes.

We have been repeat customers for many years, and really enjoy your restaurant. Once the health rating is addressed, we will be back. Understand that things sometimes happen, but I am sure this can be remedied. Thanks.

YUM YAI STREET THAI REVIEWS

This review is long overdue. Yum Yai serves the best Thai food in Birmingham. As a Thai native, I can vouch that they're incredibly creative with their dishes while preserving authentic flavors. I love their Esan sausages as an appetizer and usually order papaya salad with fried chicken. My husband loves their Khao Soi. Their coconut cake is delicious, too. If you want to experience authentic Thai food, please try Yum Yai!.

Finally tried Yum Yai street Thai and really enjoyed it! I'm a huge Thai food lover and always try different Thai restaurants around town. We ordered Speed Boat Noodles and mango ice cream. The portions and presentation were great, and the flavors were on point. I would recommend Yum Yai street Thai.

This is a beautiful new Thai Restaurant! The chicken wings & basil stir fry with shrimp & chicken is flavorful. Hibiscus & lavendar non alcoholic drink is delicious. Waitress & server were amazing! Will definitely be back! Highly recommend!.
