Thai Amarin

My family and I have been going to the Amarin for over 15 years and I have to say the food can't get any better because it has always been that good. Sam and his staff welcome you to the restaurant as if you are guests in their home. The cuisine is exceptional with it's distinct flavors in every dish you order. All the appetizers, especially the Siam Rolls and the Satay, tantalize the palate leaving you wanting more. When dinner arrives, it is always a production. With every bite, you'll experience unique flavors that make these savory dishes rare indeed. The coconut ice-cream always cleanses the palate in the most amazing way. But you have to try the Thai iced tea...it makes the meals feel light even though they already are because they are sauteed. With the Amarin, it's almost like a love affair. You have to experience it to understand what i mean. Lastly, I've been to the kitchen a few times and I have to say it's immaculate. I'm a clean freak and I approve. Bon appetite!!! more

My wife and I are new to MA, and (after living in the desert - literally), we find the Boston area eateries an oasis for the palate and, if you're lucky, even for the pocketbook. Amarin (on Centre) is just the ticket for authentic Asian cuisine. The subtle blend of spices meshed with aromatic herbs and fruits - spicey, sweet and sensuous - offers a flavorful repast at the end of any hectic day. We have both lived and dined all over the world (well, a good deal of it at least) and are always delighted to find such exquisite dishes. The chef at Amarin of Thailand is certainly unafraid of allowing his art to flourish without the heavy handful of ""chili"" that too often gets confused with 'spicey'. Do not overlook the appetizers as I believe that a full meal can be enjoyed with a simple mix of several savory selections. Simple yet elegant and easy on the wallet. We look forward to our second excursion tonight and hope soon to venture over to the Wellesey location (if I have that correct - like I said very new). Pros: Variety of Tastes Cons: So much to choose, so little time! more
