LemonGrass Thai
About This Spot
Stepping into LemonGrass Thai feels like wandering into a quietly vibrant corner of Thailand nestled in the heart of Chattanooga. The pace here is unhurried, allowing the enticing aromas of lemongrass, fresh herbs, and warm spices to gently draw you in, softening the bustle of Cummings Highway outside. There’s a welcoming hum in the air — part lively chatter, part the clinking of utensils — all blending into an atmosphere that invites you to slow down and savor the moment.
What makes LemonGrass Thai special is how it balances a casual, approachable vibe with the rich authenticity of its flavors. Whether you're settling in for a meal or picking up something to enjoy elsewhere, each bite carries the subtle warmth of home-cooked care. The kitchen’s offerings are a colorful story told in layers of spice, herbs, and textures — from the comforting depths of a coconut-infused curry to the lively, fragrant kick of basil-infused noodles. The freshness of ingredients shines through in every dish, lingering gently on the palate.
This is the kind of place where food feels like more than sustenance — it’s a small celebration of daily life and shared experiences. The staff’s friendly attentiveness creates a sense of ease, making both familiar visitors and first-timers feel quietly seen and valued. Many come here after a day of exploring nearby gems like Ruby Falls, returning a bit more grounded and nourished.
For those who prefer to take the flavors home, the kitchen’s quick and thoughtful service ensures that the vibrant tastes of Thailand remain intact, even while on the move. Whether it’s the fragrant, spicy notes of a noodle dish, the gentle heat of a curry, or a soothing bowl of soup, each meal arrives ready to wrap you in a moment of calm and satisfaction.
In essence, LemonGrass Thai is a quietly welcoming haven — a place where time softens, flavors deepen, and the simple act of sharing a meal becomes an authentic, quietly joyful occasion.

Great food and service. We ordered to go and was ready in 10 minutes! Got the beef lo mein (regular spicy was hot enough!!), fried tofu, and chicken satay skewers. We will be back next time we drive through Chattanooga!

Tried Lemongrass Thai for take out and was not disappointed. The Pad Se Ew was delicious, the Panang Curry was just right, the Spicy Basil Noodles were savory and satisfying. Mango Sticky Rice topped the meal off perfectly!

Food was excellent. I got the spicy basil noodles and my wife got the red curry. Noodles were perfect and my wife’s curry was very rich and flavorful. The staff was very friendly. Great experience.

A True Taste of Thailand! ???????? I had an incredible dining experience at this authentic Thai restaurant! The Thai basil spicy noodles were packed with bold flavors, the Tom Yum soup had the perfect balance of tangy and spicy, the chicken satay was tender and delicious, and the mango sticky rice was a heavenly sweet finish. Every dish was bursting with authentic Thai taste. The chefs, hailing from Thailand ????????, clearly know their craft. The servers were super friendly, and the service was impressively quick. Highly recommend this gem for anyone craving real Thai cuisine! 5 stars!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We ordered take out after our day of exploring at Ruby Falls etc. And it was quick and delicious!! Great place to grab a meal to go and enjoy back at home / rental. Everyone enjoyed it! We ordered - drunken noodle, Panang curry, basil chicken, dumplings, & coconut soup. It was all delicious!

Food was good. But Thai curry was too watery. Could have been thick: but it was ok to take as soup. But cleanliness I can give 0. Because the utensils were not clean. Also the sauces jar.

I had the Pad Thai and it was amazing, it is my favorite dish at Thai restaurants. The Pad Thai here was great next time I will try it with the Chili peppers they offered me next time. The staff was excellent at service, the food came out hot, checked up on me to refill my water, and to ask how was my food. Overall it is my Favorite Thai restaurant in Chattanooga. I would recommend anyone visiting Chattanooga to stop here at least once. To get here you will have to go into the walmart parking lot and go all the way to the end of that shopping center on the other side of it closest to the Walmart, Very tiny restaurant but what it lacks in size it does not lack in taste and customer service.
