Service is always good! Atmosphere is wonderful! But the icing on the cake is the Amarin Crater - pineapple fried rice served in an actual pineapple .

Jim Tompkins-MacLaine

I love both the Four Seasons AND the Mambo Mambo Chicken . The Love Boat is a great appetizer . And the soups are great. Also the fresh spring rolls are wonderful.

Beth Witte

Open Late ! They have a REAL Vegetarian menu too without the fish sauce , oyster sauce , or egg ! Awesome drunken noodles with mock duck here

Michael T

Try the Taro Pearls in Coconut Cream - This was creamy but not heavy the sesame seeds added texture. subtle earthy character that was very appealing. Delicious.

Rebecca Stark

Vegetarian curry puffs . Two flaky cloud like morsels stuffed to perfection with smooth beany goodness.

Roger Ma

Get the mambo mambo extra spicy and with sticky rice !

Paul Smith

Really great Thai food and just up the street from my house! Love it!

Gary Comeaux

Spicy noodles are very good. Hint...when they ask what level of spice.....I tried #4....it had a hell of a kick...just sayin!

Michael T

Try the Potak Soup - Really large pieces of Squid . The broth savory and tart from lemongrass . Very satisfying starter.

The crispy duck curry was good. The green curry and tamarind fish were not spicy enough to bring out the best flavor. The service was terrible, very disappointing.

Michael T

Try the Tropical Paradise - Salad w/Shrimp,crisp fresh fruit and palm sugar viniagarette. Very refreshing summer salad

AJ L

Order a pot of the Shrimp Tom Yum soup . It's sour, spicy , and scrumptious :)

Dave Bergschneider

Try everything at least one if not twice at this place. Been eating Amarin for 5yrs now and has always been consistently yummy.

Marvin

Amarin is now open late night on Wed, Thurs, and Sun from 10pm-2am; Fri and Sat from 11pm-3am.

Sasha Chernenko

Noodles , TomYum soup , fish is fresh and prices are reasonable

The Feast

Sake-marinated shrimp and duck bathed in feisty choo-chi sauce are among the refreshing departures from everyone else’s usual curry dishes .

Aiyana Sphere

2 4 $10 weekday lunch special is rad. So is the Basil Eggplant with Tofu .

Rae Nester

Some of the best Thai in town , great atmosphere and their lunch special is crazy cheap !

Red Curry Spaghetti . Different, but good.

Amarin Crater , amazing! Pineapple , shrimp , chicken , jasmine rice all in a pineapple shell!! YUM!

Clarisse Hansard

The chicken lettuce wraps will change your day

David Kujawa

Get their CPK Volcano . It's chicken and spinach in a green curry , but they put it in tin-foil shaped like a chicken , and then light it on fire! So delicious!

Kenneth Bradshaw

the cha cha cha is amazing. simply the best Thai ever.

The overhead muzak is loud and terrible enough to distract from an otherwise great place.
