I've been going to Surin West since I was at the University of Montevallo in the late 90's! It has always been a favorite. I introduced my husband to it a few years ago and today, we brought our 8yr old son for the first time! Our waitress, Billie, was ama,ing and gave great suggestions about sushi, kid's favorites, and answering all of our questions. Our son loved his sushi, sharing crab angels, and the coconut soup. Thank you, Billie and Surin West for a great and delicious experience!!

Showed up at the time of opening. The placed started filling up quickly, was a sign to me, that this was a good place to try for the first time. Well worth the visit if your ever in the mood for thai food.

I've been eating here since they opened, which was decades ago. They have a large selection of options--including a wide variety of sushi and sashimi (yes, a little odd for a Thai restaurant, but it's actually quite good). Are there better Thai places in the Birmingham Metro Area? Sure. But for consistently good food, Surin is a go-to if you live in the city.

Was really good food and service! Wish the area around it was a little safer, and didn't smell like weed.

I usually always get this to go, but it's consistently pretty good. The service is always very prompt. I really like the spicy beef noodle and the chicken noodle bowl. Only down side is it's a bit expensive for takeout Thai food. Expect to pay around $20 or more for one person.

Wonderful place to eat, the atmosphere was nice, the server was really friendly, and the food was delicious!! As a person with food allergies, I’ve always had a hard time eating at Thai places, and I usually am told that something is safe, even though it isn’t, but this place was super nice, I was able to choose what I wanted and discuss my allergies, and was served quickly, the food was amazing, safe, and overall a great experience!! 😁

I don't give single starts but they deserve it.
The core issue is a failure to meet a direct and critical dietary requirement (veganism) after explicitly confirming the request, which resulted in the dish containing an animal product (egg). This shows a significant lapse in communication between the customer, the server, and the kitchen, which is unacceptable when dealing with special dietary needs or restrictions.

Surin West never disappoints! The coconut soup was absolutely delicious—rich, creamy, and full of flavor. The barbeque chicken was cooked to perfection, tender and perfectly seasoned. I always love coming to Surin West and will definitely be back again!
