Degthai - Nashville

Deg Thai features a thoughtfully crafted menu with a selection of traditional Thai dishes. The menu is impressively simple, with detailed descriptions for each item, making it easy to decide what to order without feeling overwhelmed. Upon entering, the staff greeted me warmly at the counter where I placed my order, made my payment, and received a number. After that, I found a table, and once my food was ready, the staff brought it to me graciously. I opted for a variety of dishes to sample a broad range of their offerings. The standout items included the Street Dumplings, OG Pad Thai, and Jay’s Special. The Street Dumplings come in an order of four, filled with fresh shrimp and chicken made in-house. They’re topped with crispy garlic, fresh scallions, and accompanied by a special house soy sauce. The dumplings were moist and juicy, with a subtle hint of sweetness. My personal favorite was the OG Shrimp Pad Thai. The noodles were cooked to perfection, maintaining a pleasantly chewy texture. The sauce struck an ideal balance of tanginess and sweetness, generously complemented by jumbo shrimp and a side of bean sprouts. Jay's Special is a chicken stir-fry bursting with vibrant Thai flavors, harmonizing salty, spicy, and sweet notes. Served over a bed of rice and topped with a Thai cucumber salad, each bite provided a delightful explosion of flavors that truly delighted my palate. Overall, my dining experience at Deg Thai was quite enjoyable. The staff was attentive and always ready to answer questions. However, I should mention that the steamed rice didn’t quite meet my expectations; it had a somewhat dry texture, almost as if it were undercooked. Additionally, parking can be a bit challenging during peak hours. Nonetheless, these are minor inconveniences considering the overall experience. Despite these slight drawbacks, I wholeheartedly recommend Deg Thai to anyone seeking an authentic and satisfying Thai dining experience. The quality of the food and the warmth of the service far outweigh these minor issues.

A friend and I were really looking forward to trying a new Thai restaurant, and it definitely lived up to our expectations! The dining area is small and tends to be smoky from the kitchen, which made our eyes sting a bit. We decided to overlook that discomfort because the food was outstanding. I ordered the red curry, and it was by far the best I’ve ever had. I can’t wait to return!

The food at this restaurant is truly amazing. I ordered Jay's Special at medium heat, and it did not disappoint. Despite the hectic atmosphere on a busy Friday night, the staff remained patient and friendly throughout. I had a fantastic experience and will definitely be coming back soon!

I love Thai food and DegThai is always worth the trip! It 's no surprise they made it on the best of Nashville list. This visit I tried a few new things on the menu (besides the usual Pad Thai which is always a fave). The Kra Prad was delicious with a deep depth of flavor and comes over rice which makes the dish very filling. The chicken fried rice was cooked to perfection and full of flavor. Ordered both dishes medium on the spice level and it was perfect for someone who likes heat but still wants the food flavor to shine through.

You know it's good when it's busy on a Monday night. It did make it difficult to find parking since the parking lot is small, but there is additional parking in the back. The food was delicious, I got the Tom yum goong and the Thai iced tea. The iced tea is a must, my friends and I are still raving about it a few days later. The soup was flavourful with just a little bit of a spicy kick which is perfect now with the weather getting colder. The portion sizes were big and it came with a few jumbo shrimp. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Can't wait to come back
