Green Hills Thai & Sushi

Location is closed. Please update Unilocal entry. Site for lease. Adding fluff to make this a longer review as I wouldn’t want it just a tip and not overlooked.

Enjoyed lunch with a friend on a Sunday afternoon. I ordered Thai noodles and received what appeared to be Thai Basil. It looked fine and I didn’t feel like sending it back — the lunch entrée came with soup and a spring roll. Overall it was good but I’ve definitely had better Thai in Nashville.

First of all let me say, don’t judge a book by it’s cover. You can not tell from the outside but inside the restaurant is really nice any very laid back with dim lights at the booth we sat at. I really want to compliment our server name Jane. She was very attentive, granted there were two more tables beside me and my friend. She truely understands the word customer service. As sweet as a person can get. Anywho i ordered the fried rice (chicken and tofu) also a roll of sushi with thai tea. May i say, that all was delicious. Everything was presented quite beautifully i will have to come back soon to try the Japanese menu. Its a four star for the food and one more for the excellent service.

I love Thai and I love sushi so off we went for lunch last week. The inside of the place is far nicer than the exterior. It was quiet when I was there and there was just a smattering of a couple of other tables. Service was efficient and not overbearing. My co-​worker and I split a roll. It was okay but not okay enough for me to remember the name of it. I ordered the bento box with unagi. The eel was tasty as were the gyoza; nothing outstanding, but good enough for my lunch. It was fine but anything enough to entice me to return. There’s far better in this town.

I don’t know, 3.5 stars I guess. Very nice looking restaurant. We went for lunch and there was only one other table seated. The filet in the filet and shrimp was VERY good, the shrimp was overpowered by the hibachi sauce, though. The sushi was very small and we couldn’t taste much of the fish, but it was very well made/​cut, very tidy. The restaurant is kind of tucked away and really is way too swanky to be where it is. I might be back, might not. Samurai is where it’s at in Nashville.

Anyone that knows me know that I love Thai food and crave it on the regular. Thus, when this place opened up down the hill from me I was excited but a bit skeptical since places that do too many things tend not to excel at any of them. Despite this, my parents and I decided to give it a try.
The restaurant is nice inside, sleek and modern with a sushi bar facing you when you come in. Hostess and the sushi chefs couldn’t have been more welcoming so that was nice. We were seated in a nice, big, comfortable booth and started checking out the menu.
I was clearly sold on Thai selections this go-​around so I ordered the Basil Chicken HOT, my dad got the red curry, and my mom got General Tso’s Chicken. I also got some gyoza and chicken satay. Hey, dine in was 50% off food items so seemed like a time to try some extra food and see what was up.
The gyoza was pretty standard, pork dumplings (steamed) dipped in soy sauce. The satay was also decent but not really anything special. As for the basil chicken, well, the chicken was cooked well and there were plenty of vegetables in there but it was not hot. At all. Like literally no spice. It is like they just missed the fact that I ordered it hot. I didn’t send it back though because I hadn’t eaten all day and it was 6pm so I was ready to eat whatever was put in front of me. General Tso’s chicken was what you would expect. The curry was pretty good and they didn’t forget to spice his so I see that they actually do spice things. Definitely want to try the curry next time. Our server kept the drinks filled and was pleasant without being annoying.
So basically I am going to give this place another try since I think it was just an oversight that I didn’t get the spice level I wanted and also because I didn’t say anything to them about it. Plus, it is right down the street so that will be very convenient for take out! If only they delivered, they could definitely count on me ordering about once a week!

I did not want to give this place three stars but really this is the best I can do. I cannot believe the previous review. I am an Asian American from L.A. originally and love to eat! So I am always excited to try new Asian restaurants in Nashville.
The restaurant is pretty but was terribly warm and the prices for the entrees and sushi were on the high side. we were able to sample both Thai and sushi since they were having half price special for dinner, but sushi was just ok and udon was not authentic Japanese at all.
Thai dishes were a bit better but not that great, average at best.
so disappointed not to find a decent authentic Asian restaurant near us.
