Had dinner randomly on a weekday and I knew it was going to be good. Great service from beginning to end . The chef owner came to our table and talked about his other restaurant, his book . It was nice of him to have us all a glass is wine. Cheers . I will return. Phones of all the food ordered. Yuuuum!!

Beautiful space, delicious food, and friendly service! I've walked by Fin Thai a few times and finally went in to try their happy hour along with a few other dishes. Food: Happy hour small plates are reasonably priced and delicious. We tried the fresh rolls, spring rolls, and shrimp satay. Each dish came with its own sauce that accompanied the dish perfectly and the flavors were great. We also got the Chicken Garlic Rice plate which came with a delicious broth and a perfect chili sauce. All the drinks we tried were great as well Service: Friendly, efficient, and kind! Ambiance: The space is huge and designed beautifully. Very relaxing vibe We'll be back for happy hour and dinner for sure!

Amazing modern Thai restaurant! If you were in Bangkok eating a modern Thai place, this is exactly how it would be. Chef/owner Kobe and their staff is amazing at executing their dishes. Everything was very flavorful and reminds me exactly of food in Thailand. Service is great and everyone is very attentive. Decor is amazing inside. Personally, i would pick this place over Farmhouse and OSHA. I don't get the hype on Farmhouse. Must haves at this place are the Wing Sap, steamed fish, and duck curry. With such an extensive menu, there are many more options to try. Will be coming back regularly.

I really liked Fin Thai! The interior is a really cute fusion of modern and traditional thai aesthetic. The food was also amazing! The young coconut was really sweet and refreshing and all the dishes we ordered were delicious. I really liked the pad see ew because it had that charred wok taste iykyk. It says the soup is spicy but honestly it wasn't too bad because it was creamy. The also have happy hour from 5-7 and I'll definitely be coming back to try it!

A cozy Thai spot with a good happy hour menu! Our waitress was very kind and seated us immediately. This would be a really cute date spot because of the dim lighting and fun atmosphere. We ordered the papaya salad, pad see ew, pineapple fried rice, and the prawns. I would skip on the prawns because while they were huge, it's not a lot of meat and a bit underwhelming in taste. Fin Thai is definitely authentic and you can tell the difference in their ingredients. Of all the dishes we ordered the papaya salad was the best! I never thought a papaya salad could be so dimensional in flavor. It was probably the best I've ever had! Would come back again just for the papaya salad!

Food: 4 Decor: 4 Service: 4 Came here for a late dinner and walked in without a res. Overall great food and would come back again. Seafood Salad Roll Set $18.00 Rice pepper wrapped, shrimp, crab sticks, carrot, lettuce, mint, vermicelli served with seafood sauce 4/5. Fresh veg and seafood rolls. Refreshing and nice complement with the sauce Crispy Fish With Mango Salad $39.00 Deep fried trout on top with mango salad 4/5. Fish was fried well and was very tasty. Mango salad was just okay. Papaya Salad $16.00 Shredded green papaya, peanuts, tomatoes, thai chili, garlic, lime juice, fish sauce and dried shrimp 4/5. Tasty although I wish there were a bit more papaya salad instead of some large pieces of cabbage. Service was good. Servers were Thai.

Happy hour bites. I've come for happy hour more than a few times now. Their current deal of 6$ draft beer and 9$ wines is great for this part of Polk. Their HH for food does have some smaller portions but the food itself is great. The flavors really pop and even though some are spicy the flavor still shines through. I think m favorites are the oyster shooters, crispy shrimp roll, and calamari. It is definitely still on my list of HH places on Polk to hit.

Beautiful Thai spot off of Polk street! We came on a weekday night so there was plenty of seating. I would recommend getting: -Morning glory (one of my favorite vegetables) -crab omelette (this was not on the menu but the chef kindly made it for us! Was delicious and stuffed with crab) -seafood drunken noodles (they are generous with the seafood) Pass -mango salad with crispy fish: I didn't love this one because the fish was tough to eat
