Thai Garden

  It is nice to see a family restaurant, complete with the owner's children doing homework at the booths in the back. I found it somewhat amusing that my dinner partner stared at the GIANT television on the wall which was BLARING children's cartoons throughout our meal. Oh, well, gave me a chance to catch up on email on my phone without feeling guilty;)
  
  Seriously, check out that ceiling!
  
  The spice level was great. Apparently that table of macho men ordered "extra spicy" just before we did so there was no mercy.

  Very good home made food. Tastes natural and no MSG.

  Our favorite Thai Restaurant in the Chattanooga area. Mrs. Nancy (owner) is very friendly. #41 & #45 are my favorite dishes.  
  
  Tip: They also have a Chinese menu but you must ask for it.

  Not fancy but the food and service were both great. Be sure to notice the ceiling.

  Thai Garden is a modest little place in a slowly decaying shopping center in Fort Oglethorpe.  IIRC, it first opened about 7 years ago in the spot that previously housed the rightfully defunct China Garden.  
  
  Since its inception, my wife and I have enjoyed hundreds of meals there - both dine-in and take-out.  We've been through 5 owners thus far.  This town and especially this spot does not seem conducive to building a thriving non-Chinese-Asian restaurant no matter how good the food and value.  I think all of the previous owners were ground down by trying to make a go of it.  
  
  And it's a shame as this restaurant is the pearl in the otherwise dismal non-Chinese-Asian scene in NW Georgia.  To my palate, the Thai offerings.consistently rival the best of the other Thai restaurants in the metro Chattanooga area.
  
  The latest owners are a married couple.  She is Chinese and works the front of the restaurant.  English is very difficult but she is effusive and delightful.  He is Thai and does the cooking.  
  
  They now have two menus - the Thai, which I can heartily recommend, and a Chinese-American menu, which includes all the standard fare.  I have inadequate experience with that menu to rate its offerings.
  
  The restaurant rarely seems busy but they seem to have more take-out business than previously.  Maybe that's a consequence of offering Chinese meals.
  
  This place is a worthy 3 star Thai restaurant in Atlanta, a 4 star in Chattanooga, and a 5 star for Fort O.
