"I've been to this restaurant several times. The food is always good and sometimes great. We went there last night and there was plenty of seating for outside so we asked to sit there cause we generally don't eat indoors these days. They had several of empty tables and went to seat us at the one high table they had which is ok if you are at a sports bar or they have no other seating but we weren't asked if we wanted to be at a high table with stools rather than a comfortable normal table. We asked to sit at a low table and of course they let us, but it would show a bit of caring to ask first. Small details but things you notice when you have worked on the industry for 10 years. Later when we ordered drinks we ordered 2 normal sodas and 2 diet. When the waitress brought them I double checked because I had a feeling that she would confuse them (sometimes you get this feeling and have to check) and she said that she actually separated them on the tray to make sure she got them right. The reason I checked is cause my wife is diabetic so she has to avoid sugary drinks and if she has any sugar she has to know so she can adjust her insulin intake to avoid serious medical issues. I also get diet so if she ever needs to take a sip from my drink it's not an issue. One of our friends drank her soda and right away she said this one is diet. She really dislikes diet sodas and can tell right away. So then my wife took her test strips she uses to test her blood sugar to test her soda (diabetics will tell you how they check) and sure enough it was normal so she traded. So overall a good place but I think the service could use work. A retired coworker goes there every other Wednesday and I started meeting him occasionally. Service is better for regulars. It's just that I wish the service was great for everyone. Not just the regulars. One final things to point out is that I've been going here for years and the quality of the food has deteriorated a bit . I would tell people to go here to get the best burger ever, and now it's a little better then just ok. And the wings are not good. I still go there every two weeks or so to see my coworker, just wish it were like the old Lewis's."

"We went early (for specific reasons) and lucked into the early bird special. It was terrific. Appetizer, main course and dessert for $27. There were six of us, celebrating an 80th birthday. Four diners had the seafood chowder, deemed delicious, one the caesar salad and one the shrimp cocktail. It had 3 large delicious shrimp. Main course choices were steak tips and salmon (there were other choices as well) with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Dessert was a choice of chocolate cake, coconut cream cake or gelato or sorbet. Everything was delicious. We had glasses of wine, Riesling, sauvignon blanc and sangiovese also all delicious. The birthday boy was celebrated with a frosted round cake and candle. Our server Acely was outstanding, perky, fun and knowledgeable. Altogether, lovely experience."

"Please disregard the negative reviews. I recently tried to have lunch at this restaurant, but unfortunately, they were closed on Tuesdays (which is good for them, considering the mistreatment of restaurant staff in the US). I usually get takeout from there. Out of my family of four, only one of us is willing to eat Thai food, so it's usually just for me. I have been to Thai Tanni before, but they have a minimum card fee and I rarely carry cash. The food is delicious and the vegetables are fresh. The service is outstanding. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful, making it a great place for a date or a family meal. I stand by my positive review of this establishment. It seems like the negative reviews are from people who are always looking for faults. I have full confidence that the staff at Thai Tanni would do their best to accommodate any unique dietary needs or preferences. They are wonderful people who take pride in their work. I don't usually order takeout, but every time I do from Thai Tanni, I am never disappointed. Keep up the good work, Thai Tanni. I will be back again this week as my craving for Thai food continues. Peace."

"This place is great. I took a chance because Google said it was slower than usual. I found the only available table. Ordered the eggs benedict classic with Canadian bacon and home fries. It was absolutely fenominal. I could not finish the fries. Good portions, good prices. My full plate meal plus orange juice was only $15. The workers are all super nice even as busy as it was. I will definitely be returning for more."

"Great middle eastern food in downtown Norwood. Being middle eastern myself, I'm very picky about my food, especially when you grow eating it. Their food is fresh and delicious. The baked kibbee was very good. The kafta, was flavorful and delicious. The waitstaff, and some of them have been there a long time, could use a pep talk in the friendliness department. They're a bit stiff. They're pricey, but the food is worth it. If you like Middle Eastern food or have never had it before and want to try it, this is the place to go!"
