  • I was really excited about trying this place and having my first Thai meal in the Charlotte area and it's not that it was a disappointment but it just fell a bit short of what I was hoping for, so I'm giving it 3 stars for A-OK. As others have pointed out, the service is good. The staff is friendly and polite and they do a nice job of making you feel welcome. The food was good, not great. Although the dessert was really tasty, but I'll get to that later. The appetizer we had of the fried tofu with sweet and sour sauce was pretty good. They served it HOT and it was fresh but the initial bite was too hot for my friend and I that we slightly burnt our tongues and lost flavor for a bit. For my entree I had the vegetarian red curry at level 3 (out of 5) spiciness and thought it was kind of mediocre. Maybe if there was more spice it could've been better, but as it was, I could go through my plate but I wasn't crazy about it, it lacked punch. I also was bummed to see that they only served white rice. I normally eat brown rice for health reasons and a lot of Thai restaurants usually have that as an option but Thai Emerald only offered one type. However, dessert was my favorite and they did score well with the fried banana w/ice cream. There was miscommunication with our server and I and instead of the typical coconut ice cream that is standard with fried banana, I got mango ice cream, which oddly turned out to be very, very good! I thought the combination would taste bad but the tarty mango flavor blended with the syrup on the fried banana just hit it for me. If back, I will likely get this combo again. Something else I liked about Thai Emerald is they advertise in the local Clipper and the coupon saved us quite some change. Considering we had a three course meal and plus a drink, we did not spend too much and left full. I probably won't be a regular here but it's fine for an occasional run. I also wouldn't mind having the dessert again.
