Villa Thai is an Eastern cuisine restaurant situated a bit away from the city centre, quite near the harbor. Locals really like this restaurant and I am among them as well. I really like the interior of the place --- it is really well thought out, with Buddhist motives.
While there, you can really feel the atmosphere, which is accompanied with great food. The menu is big and diverse; sometimes you will see it as a con, but in this case it is surely a pro. I have been there multiple times and have always tried to order different dishes. So far, I have never been disappointed.
Whether you are a soup lover, or if you prefer meat, or if you are a vegetarian or a vegan - everybody will find something to enjoy at Villa Thai. Villa Thai was also awarded with the "Silver Spoon" last year, which is a yearly contest of the best restaurants in Estonia. That has definitely got to say something about the quality of the place.
