   The food was pretty good, but the noise was unbearable to the point that we decided to wrap up quickly and leave. Everybody at every table was shouting just to be able to converse with their friend/family. This is by far the loudest restaurant I have been to (I have been to many restaurants around the world).

   Yet again NaKorn does not fail to impress. This restaurant deserves a James Beard Award. Plus, its staffed by the kindest people. You guys deserve every success and we loved your new specials, drinks and desserts!

   NaKorn is my favorite place to be --- I would be here constantly if I could. The women who own this cozy restaurant are so caring and friendly -- as is everyone who works here. I feel like customers become "family"..... which is why it was full with regulars for Mother's Day. Everything on the menu is delicious and unique - authentic foods and spices from their childhood in Thailand. The presentation is elegant. Enjoy when you go there - I know you will!!

   We really enjoyed our meal. Flavor profiles were interesting and pleasing for the appetizers, main dishes, and dessert. We’ll be going back.

   Nakorn was fantastic! Most Thai restaurants are very Americanized - serving pad thai, pad see ew, maybe even a massaman curry. You won’t find those dishes at Nakorn. The food is both authentically Thai, and very delicious with unique flavor profiles. The ambience’s is charming, the staff fantastic. Upscale food in a low key setting.

   Friendly service, delicious Thai food, live sax music that wasn’t too loud. So many appealing items on the menu that it was hard to choose!

    We love Nakorn - they never disappoint! Our meals are always delicious, as are the drinks, and the service is very attentive without being intrusive. We hope to keep going there for many years to come.
