"Ordered the Sweet and Sour chicken. It was basically a plate of chicken finger. They had a bowl of sauce you could pour on. Very different than the One Atlanta area. You will be very disappointed."

"My fave Asian restaurant in BHM! Never had a bad item, excellent sushi, curry, etc."

"Good place, even if we did go with 30 minutes left before dinner service. But they were very accommodating, I'm the fact that they still seated us and were very professional. The food is really good as well The appetizers of dim sum, and the surin baskets ( incredible flavor, definitely should try these) were outstanding. The pad Thai in my opinion could have used more savory It tasted a little sweet even if it was the spiciest level you could which is three. The spicy beef noodles though with shrimp were mighty tasty. Overall really good experience would give them a try again."

"I’ve been coming to Surin West for over a decade now and it has never failed to be superb food! The food always comes out in a timely manner and I kid you not, no matter what you order off of that menu it will be unique and delicious in its own way! I highly recommend the Chicken Noodle Bowl, only available at lunch, it is noodles with grilled chicken in a lemongrass curry sauce and it is beyond good. Trust. Surin West in five points is one of Birminghams restaurant gems and anyone that hasn’t tried it yet is truly missing out! Pro Tip: Go dine in at lunch and get the coconut soup (aka liquid GOLD) with your meal."

"Delicious authentic flavors. The pork dish we ordered was fantastic! It came with real Thai sticky rice which I've realized is hard to find in this town at various "Thai" restaurants. The coconut soup was creamy and slightly spicy. We liked it better than the hot and sour shrimp soup. We ordered 6pcs of Sriracha hamachi sushi that were delicious as well. The only reason they lost a star is it took 10 minutes for our server to greet us and take our drink order. Then throughout the meal didn't refill our drinks until we specifically asked after being out for several minutes. Overall, a delicious meal with deep satisfying flavors and a beautiful atmosphere. The waiter seemed inexperienced but had a happy disposition. Give them a try!! I don't think you'll regret it."
