The Best Thai Restaurant — Restaurant in Jacksonville

This place absolutely lives up to the name. The second you walk in, you can tell it’s somewhere you’ll want to stay awhile. The space is beautiful — boutique but not in a way that feels over-designed. There’s a lot of warm wood, rattan lamps casting a soft glow, little pockets of cozy seating, and charming touches like individual elephant salt and pepper shakers on every table. Everything is spotless without feeling sterile. Calm, easygoing music plays in the background, setting the perfect relaxed vibe without ever intruding. It’s the kind of place that feels made for a date night or a slow meal with friends, where you’re actually encouraged to savor every moment.

The service was spot-on from start to finish. They seat you quickly, bring menus without a rush, and let you take your time deciding. Once the food arrives, they know to step back and let you enjoy, but they're quick to catch your eye if you need anything. It’s the kind of attentive but low-key service that makes you feel taken care of without ever feeling watched.

I ordered the drunken noodles with duck and the Thai noodle soup with duck. Both came out plated beautifully — nothing too fussy, just clean bowls and plates with food that looked as good as it smelled. The soup was fantastic. Brothy, slightly sweet, layered with flavor but still light. It’s not spicy by default, which I liked, because you can customize it. They offer three spice levels: mild, hot, or Thai hot. I went somewhere in the middle and it was perfect — just enough kick without overwhelming the dish.

The drunken noodles were everything I wanted: a little smoky from the wok, wide chewy noodles that soaked up all the sauce, tender slices of duck that still had a little crisp to the edges. There was a sweet-savory balance that hit just right — the sweetness noticeable but not cloying. You also get a spice rack at the table if you want to crank up the heat on your own, which I definitely appreciated since my tolerance is pretty high these days haha.

The pacing of the meal was perfect. No feeling of being rushed between courses, no weird long gaps either — just enough time to relax, sip on water or tea, and look forward to the next plate.

By the end of the meal, I was already planning my next visit. Everything about it — the food, the space, the staff — felt intentional and inviting. It’s rare to find a restaurant where you genuinely want to slow down and stay longer, and even rarer when the food fully delivers on top of that. So glad I found this spot. It’s definitely going into my...

I ordered my meal before 9 but dining wasn't an option even though they had people dining.

But beside that lets get to the food itself and why the 2 stars.

First the positive, the small coconut soup tasted great and had plenty of vegetables and tofu.

The spring roll was pretty good, wasn't too hot temperature wise and had good amount of veggies in it, however, VERY little amount of side sauce.

The summer roll barely had veggies in it. It definitely felt they were trying to cut down on ingredients while I'm pay premium 40 dollars for my meal!

The tom yum tofu tasted traditional so that was a good thing but there were barely any veggies in it like I'm used to from this soup and only 2 cubes of tofu.

The lo mein was very expensive, it didn't taste great. It felt like a rush job and like a high schooler made it. Hardly any veggies on it, over the top out of proportion tofu. It was a lunch size portion of the actual noodles. The taste was a mild sweet taste but nothing special that lived up to the amazing Thai food name.

If I were to ever order from this place again it would probably just be the coconut soup unless their other entree soup is any good.

I didn't feel this meal was worth the money I spent on it.

Oh, and I gave a tip and found out there were no utensils in my carryout bag.

So given the food portion size wasn't adequate amount for the price, and given the food didn't taste great which is a bigger problem, is why my honest review to be a 2 star.

I've eaten in many Thai restaurants through out the country and this one would be at the...

We enjoyed our food well enough but for Thai food it was bland compared to many other restaurants. We ordered ahead over the phone and brought it home to eat. I was first a little disappointed that the basil rolls specifically say it comes with 4 per order but we only received 2 in our orders. We bought it to share and had to cut the rolls up to share, the flavor was alright but there was so much lettuce and carrot not much in the way of clear noodles which is a main base for these rolls. I ordered the Tom Kha and it was good, a sweet base which isn't what I'm used to but didn't dislike it (could use more lemongrass perhaps and some spice?). I ordered Pad Thai and while cooked well it was, extremely bland. I am open to the idea that they're trying to leave the spice level low for people to decide how hot they want it, but it very much lacked flavor. Thai tea was strong and good, my mother enjoyed her Pad Prik and it also had a low low spice level. I would say to ensure requesting a spice level if you're used to a mild/moderate spice in your Thai food. I won't say we won't return, but I probably will pick some place first over Amazing Thai even with its close proximity. I hope you all are open to the critiques of your reviewers, as I would love to see your business thrive and...
