SriThai is expanding with a location inside the perimeter.
The Thai and Japanese restaurant is in permitting with the City of Atlanta to open an outpost next year in Atlantic Station.
Nick Garzia, director of retail leasing for Hines, Atlantic Station’s newest owner, confirmed the news in an email to What Now Atlanta (WNA) over the weekend.
“Bringing a unique mix of dining options to Atlantic Station has been a primary goal behind the property’s retail transformation,” Garzia said in a prepared statement.
“Adding SriThai to our restaurant lineup speaks true to our mission of bringing our customers the dining experiences they are craving, and we’re excited to welcome another Atlanta favorite to Atlantic Station.”
The 4,852-square-foot restaurant will be the company’s third Atlanta location joining SriThai Duluth and Snellville.
“With over 25 years of experience in the restaurant industry, we are excited and proud to continue our high standard of serving an unforgettable Thai and Japanese fine dining experience at Atlantic Station,” Winn Mekpongsatorn, owner of SriThai, said in a prepared statement.
An opening timeline has not yet been shared.

What a shame that this ‘global expansion’ plan will only further bastardise this form of attraction which in fact was taken from PUZZLING WORLD in New Zealand – inventor of the ILLUSION ROOMS and PUZZLE CENTRE concepts. With almost 50 years of history the business has seen many copy-cat ventures (including those who’ve stolen our maze designs) but MOI who has never credited us is a genuine threat to the ongoing viability of this form of entertainment, sorry, ‘edutainment’.
Do you know if Puzzling World has any aspirations to expand outside of New Zealand?
Wonder where exactly in Atlantic Station? Can’t think of an 11,000 sq. ft. space available!
