" I visited SS Gai for a quick lunch and was blown away by the freshness of the food. I tried their fried chicken and it was crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. The sticky rice was a perfect accompaniment, and I loved how I could wrap everything in lettuce. Very authentic and a great experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely hands down one of the best places in Nashville! Each time I visit SS Gai, I fall more in love with the flavors. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and the sticky rice is so good. I appreciate that they keep the Thai street food charm alive here. The owners are lovely and attentive, and I look forward to my next meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at SS Gai was absolutely delightful! I brought a group of friends and we decided to share various dishes including both types of chicken and mango sticky rice. Every bite was packed with flavor, and I appreciated the use of fresh herbs. The outdoor setting adds to the charm, although we did have to deal with pesky flies. A fantastic option for anyone craving authentic Thai food! " (*Curated Review*)

" SS Gai has become one of my favorite places in Nashville! The fried chicken is out of this world—crispy on the outside and succulent on the inside. The sticky rice and fresh herbs elevate the dish even more. I appreciate the detailed attention to authenticity in their offerings. The owners are super friendly and passionate about what they serve. Highly recommend the fried mango sticky rice for dessert, it’s unlike anything I’ve ever tasted! " (*Curated Review*)

" The hype around SS Gai is well-deserved! I ordered the grilled and fried chicken with sticky rice and fresh herbs. The flavors transported me straight back to Thailand! I particularly loved the spicy sauce. However, the outdoor seating area did have some flies, which was a bit distracting while eating. Overall, a fantastic meal that I would recommend to anyone looking for authentic Thai flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I first discovered SS Gai after a friend's recommendation and I am so grateful! The fried chicken has a crisp texture that I absolutely love. I also enjoyed the brown sauce that accompanies the chicken very much. The outdoor dining is great as long as you can handle the flies buzzing around. Still, the quality of the food certainly makes it a worthwhile stop. " (*Curated Review*)

" SS Gai is a gem! The fried chicken is seriously one of the best I've had. It's always fresh and served with a nice variety of sides. The interactive aspect of wrapping the chicken in lettuce is so much fun! However, the flies can get a bit annoying when you're trying to enjoy your meal. Regardless, the food quality and flavor make it worth the visit. " (*Curated Review*)
