" I’m a huge fan of Thai food, and after hearing recommendations, I decided to check out Karen Thai & Sushi. Overall, the food was solid with great freshness. The menu offered diverse options, though some dishes could use a little more kick in the seasoning. Loved the atmosphere, though it felt a bit crowded during peak hours. Service was decent; our waiter was friendly, although a little inconsistent with follow-ups. Nonetheless, I will give it another try and perhaps explore some different dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" An awesome place for Thai and sushi! We had a large group and ordered various dishes to share. Every plate was flavorful and well-prepared. The staff was incredibly polite and managed our orders without a hitch. The ambiance was nice, with a mix of contemporary and traditional decor that enhanced our dining experience. The only downside was that it got a bit noisy as the night progressed, but that’s to be expected when a place is busy. I highly recommend the boba tea—it was one of the best I’ve had! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Karen Thai & Sushi on a whim, and the food was quite delightful! The green curry was tasty and full of flavor. The sushi options were fresh, but I felt the rolls didn’t match what I’ve had in more traditional sushi places. Nonetheless, the dining experience overall was pleasant—the staff were friendly and the restaurant is clean. I may try it again to see how consistent they are with their dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" This has become my happy place! Every time I come to Karen Thai & Sushi the food is consistently delicious. The curries are authentic, and the balance of flavors in each dish creates a memorable meal. The service has always been friendly and attentive. I recently tried the spicy tuna roll and fell in love! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it feel like home. I also must mention the cleanliness of the restaurant. Truly one of the best in Smyrna for Thai cuisine, and I'm always looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the opportunity to visit Karen Thai & Sushi last weekend after hearing rave reviews from friends. The place did not disappoint! The Pad Thai was packed with flavor and the portion size was generous. I could tell the ingredients were fresh, which made all the difference. My only critique would be that the wait for food was a bit longer than expected, but it was well worth it. The ambiance was lively, making it a great venue to enjoy a meal with friends. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great Thai food! " (*Curated Review*)

" A charming spot for a casual meal! I visited Karen Thai & Sushi recently and was really impressed by their bento boxes—great portion sizes and variety! The sushi was also fresh, and I loved the taste. I found the prices very reasonable for the quality of food served. The staff was friendly, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our meal. I enjoyed the cozy setting, making it feel like a hidden gem! I can’t wait to come back and try more off the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try this place based on the reviews, but I’m a bit conflicted. The food had some authentic flavors, but the execution was inconsistent. My yellow curry was lovely, but the sushi I ordered was just average. It didn’t have the freshness I was hoping for. I have to commend the staff, though; they were welcoming and attentive throughout the meal. The atmosphere was cozy and vibrant, perfect for gatherings. Overall, I believe this place has the potential, and I’d be open to giving it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)
