Zab-E-Lee Thai and Sushi Restaurant Review

The food is very good, service is also good too! We had basil fried rice & panag curry, it was delicious.

Customer service leaves much to be desired,but the food is good when not during a rush. They recently updated the dining room table coverings...good touch.

Great authentic thai food on southside of atl!!! Family owned.... #SeeYouTomoro

Me and my husband came into town to visit family and this is the place we chose to eat. Upon arriving we were seated, but the customer service was bland at best. We did not get asked what type of drink we'd liked, we only drank water because that was all that was offered to us. While the food well prepared, after we left I became sick. I'm pretty sure the shrimp in the pho was uncooked. I'll never eat here again and I'm definitely going to make sure none of my friends eat here as well.

Amazing pad thai! Dont let the outside fool you. The food is delicious.

Brought on a first date...Loved this place. The food is plentiful, fresh, flavorful, and inexpensive. The small place is roomy inside and the decor is so elegant and welcoming. The staff is so friendly and respectful. I certainly will be back. This was an experience, and I am WOW'd.

Great little small place. Service was fast and respectful. Food came out quick and was very fresh and hot. Great place for reasonably priced Thai food.

Everything is good here. It's located in a slightly decrepit strip mall that boasts several other international restaurants. The inside is bright and clean, and the service is good. I recently had the duck pho, and it was very, very good. Pick anything from the menu here - Chinese, Japanese, Thai - you won't be disappointed.

The food is great if your on the Southside area of Atlanta make sure you grab something to eat there.

Great food and for a very reasonable price. This is one of my favorite places!

I wasn't super impressed with the food I ordered. Food wasn't great wasn't bad. I guess if you are really craving Thai/Asian flavors this place will do.

Service was fine. Small little Thai place. Plenty of parking available.

I have been to this restaurant so many times I have lost count! Great food! Make sure you get the Masaman Curry!

Probably the oldest and still best Thai restaurant in Atlanta.

Great food! I tried the basil duck and it was just delicious! Small place, definitely hard to mess but great experience and not pricey at all.

My girlfriend and I arrived during the Saturday dinner rush and were immediately seated without a menu. The staff were so disorganized that we received the incorrect drink order. After fifteen minutes I flagged down a waiter to get a menu. After nearly 45 minutes of waiting for staff to come by and take our orders we walked out emptyhanded. On the bright side, the food looked and smelled good. Quite a shame I didn't get a chance to taste it.

Awesome place! Had the chicken satay, Tom yum soup and the spicy garlic chicken and everything was great. Will definitely be coming back.

Zab-E-Lee is a hidden gem that is family owned and operated offering authentic Thai cuisine. This food gives Nan and Tamarind Seed huge competition, minus the fancy decor. I'm 75% close to tasting everything on the menu and while I have my absolute favorites, everything is great. Don't sleep on their Curries, Squid Salad and Nam Tok! I just wish they brought back the boba tea.

Love this place! I get the Massaman Curry! We go almost weekly!

I'm in town for business and was craving Thai. The reviews online said this place was great and they were right! I'll properly be back again before I leave town!

Terrible place to go eat and I'm African-American and I had to use the bathroom and before I can go in the bathroom all the employees with chasing me and everything I felt like I was just being discriminated you know I was about to spend some money with them but you know they discriminate against black people in this is a black area

There are multiple factors I consider when rating a restaurant. This includes timeliness of service, quality of food, and overall cleanliness of the restaurant. I sat and watch the waiter take of the order of other patrons of a different / lighter hue almost immediately after they entered, I'd say within 3-5 minutes. I observed how long it took them to take my order, which was about 7-10 minutes. I happen to pay close attention to this however this may or not matter to you in your dining experience. Just an observation.

The food however was very tasty, delicious and fresh. The portions were great. I also thought the pricing was reasonable. Atmosphere was intimate. I attribute the 3 stars to my actual customer service experience. I liked that they had an array of options on their menu. So much to choose from.

Large potions. Staff was pleasant. Coconut Tufu soup was great!

Great Thai food for a good price.
The meals are always tasty.
Service is good but can be a bit slow.
Still highly recommend this place.

Great Pho! Loved the included (weekdays with lunch) Tom Yum soup as well. Friendly and attentive servers and staff, great balance in the pho and assorted oils and sauces to tailor heat to your taste. Loved it.

Small family owned Thai restaurant and everyone is very friendly and the food is amazingly fresh and tasty!

Delicious food. Never would have expected it based on the location. I'd definitely go again if I make it to Atlanta again.

Excellent and delightful food, I like the mood this place has, and the workers were very friendly. I will definitely come back in the future.

Fresh Thai with large portions! Loved the food. Seating is close and intimate with other patrons.

Excellent and authentic Thai food. The service is always top notch and the price and amount of food is great. It's the reason I've been coming back for over twenty years!

This is one of the best thi restaurants I've been to. You will not be disappointed

Best calamari in metro area. Spicy seafood entre is excellent. Decor nor the greatest but the best Thai food.

Had Red Curry Salmon, which was delicious. The restaurant was too warm but the food hit.the.spot

Would never go back there...... the worst customer service...... it may have be a race thing.... I order over the phone 8:30 the young lady repeated the order I agree.. pick up the order.. get home it was wrong.. called was told to bring back and I'm over 32 min away by the way i have been to this place at less 15 times With no problem. I explained the time it would take to get back there and she said they would wait. I get back at 9:24 to have it redone... and the manager said I don't think believe... I requested that everything be made over and he said no we are closed..... wow.... wow... git my refund and went home... never again...

This is the perfect hole in the wall restaurant. They offer authentic selections of Thai favorites AND sushi. The portions are humongous and the prices are low to fair. The service was friendly and comfortable.

Food: 10/10
Service: 10/10
Ambiance: 10/10
Price: 10/10

I have been here sebwral tes and the food is good and inexpensive. Worth trying out!

I'm sorry to say this to my own people,But the food I had ( papaya salad) was not that great.It's the easy dish to make.My wife order Lard Nah and she said it was ok but the presentation was not that great.They should change the restaurant name to HahnTomMaDa and not Zab E Lee

The food is so delicious! Me and my family goes there atleast once a week. And not to mention, their customer service is amazing! Out of all the Thai restaurants, I have to say that this is my favorite

Rude service. $2 up charge to add cilantro to pad Thai? That's supposed to be on there already. So rude, lost my appetite.

Yaaaas. Super tasty food at unbeatable prices. Location is tucked away in a seemingly deserted strip mall but don t let it deter you!! Ordered lunch for all of my coworkers on two separate occasions and both times everyone raved about their food. The staff is very friendly and helpful, even to the point that they assisted me carrying the to-go to my car. If you want a sweet, caffeinated treat, order the Thai iced coffee.

This is the best kept secret in Thai food. A must try . Highly recommended.

This place is a hidden treasure of Atlanta. The location is a little off-putting, but once you find the place it is absolutely worth it. The food is delicious and they have a lot of variety. They also have ample options for vegetarian and gluten free dishes.

We almost drove to a different restaurant because the area is so so. But we decided to give it a try. Glad we did because the food was awesome. It got great reviews for a reason. Don t be afraid of the area! Everything we ate was delicious.

Tom Yum Seafood had a very strange taste to it, most of the seafood was overcooked. The side of rice I ordered with it came wrapped in cellophane wrap and was so overlooked that I trouble cutting it.

Panang Curry was delicious however and the rice was cooked well. Could use more vegetables but over all satisfied with this dish.

I've eaten here on many occasions and every time it's super amazing the coconut soup delish so is the shrimp pad tai the sushi is phenomenal, my family and friends loves this place as much as I do

Paradise for spice lovers! :)
Amazing food. Fast service.
Best option for quick work day lunch!

Had went and eaten in so I really liked a dish! Decided to use a delivery service to be in the traffic! Food was horrible and after calling was informed it was delivery service fault! How? When it was cooked and prepared at this establishment? I'm confuse? I've eaten this same item it was so delicious! Yet this time overcooked and failed! But was told it was delivery fault! Nall ! You are not going to blame staff at establishment for failing to expedite a menu item correctly! Sad! Now I'm not so thrilled!

Authentic Thai food with a small sushi menu. Their beef pho is a richer, savory variation, which is surpeisingly good.

Great food, great prices,,service a little slow. But will be back soon

Always a favorite when I'm in College Park. Best Thai food around

An amazing hole in the wall place!! Interior decor is a little quirky, but the staff were super friendly. The food itself is very fresh, we had three different sushi rolls, dumplings and wonton soup and it was all flavorful and well plated. Would recommend to anyone who is in search of quality sushi!

Food is always extremely good but the cashier is straight ghetto...so sorry to say. I will continue to go here as I have for over 15yrs but they need to teach the young lady at the register how to talk to customers. I just sat there and listen how she answered the phone to how she dealt with customers coming in the door. I don't think she meant any harm she just doesn't know any better.

Found baby roaches when a rice bowl was brought out

Excellent Thai cuisine, very friendly staff... speedy take out service too

Trying to get consistency in these restaurants! It was just okay this time.

Making this a regular stop when I'm in College Park

My first time. I got the drunken noodle and shrimp. The plate is huge. It is so good that I ate non stop. Awesome place.

Found this place through a online search for sushi. The location is not the best, and the customer service needs improvement. Nevertheless, the food was amazing!! I ordered the rainbow roll and the sunset roll. It was delicious! I'm looking forward to to sampling other dishes on the menu.

This is the best Thai food I have ever tasted. Great portions of food & very friendly staff. My favorite will always be the Basil Fried Rice

Truly fresh and authentic food! Flavorful to the last bite

Fantastic food, welcoming staff, constantly great ambience. They charge convenient prices and the food quality is fantastic. Kudos.

This little place is a gem! We stopped here after a long day of traveling and can't get over the quality of the food and service. The menu is large and everything we had was perfect! My wife travelled through Thailand and said she was immediately taken back to her backpacking days with a Chang beer and drunken noodles. We shared an appetizer sampler and I had a delicious Thai hot and sour soup. Would definitely recommend!

DO NOT TRUST THESE REVIEWS. We came in from out of town. According to these reviews this restaurant is great but we had a very different experience. When we arrived there was no one in the restaurant, we were the first customers for the evening. My friend ordered pad thai and shrimp and it tasted pretty okay. I ordered the stir fry brocolli with shrimp and decided to add the scallops since they were $3. I only wanted a little of sauce. The scallops came out raw in the bath of sauce that was served. Our waitress never checked on us so we went 25 minutes before they asked if we wanted dessert. I told them by that point I didn't want dessert and wanted the scallops removed since I scooped all of them out and put then to the side uneaten. They said they could only give me a new order, not remove which I accepted. The waiter (someone different) came out and recieved the old food then came back out less than one minute later with scallops in the sauce that was just on my plate. I hate taken a weird bite out of one of my scallops and saw that exact one floating at the top of the sauce. When I voiced the issue to the person that ended up being the manager she removed the scallops finally. It was a truly terrible experience considering there were only FIVE people in total in the restaurant and three servers. DO NOT COME HERE. IT IS TERRIBLE. For my experience I would give one star.

Also the restaurant is extremely warm and has an unwelcoming atmosphere.

Wonton ... sushi ..... and the fried rice is good. I had some of it all. Sushi tasted fresh. Wonton soup was good except for the dumplings in the soup are too gooey and the soup does not come with the chips. The fried rice was moist and flavorful.

Quick service, quality food. Will return as I have for several years.
