Born & raised in southern Thailand, Piya inherited the Thai focus on food - to Thais even being a little hungry is considered an emergency! Piya travelled extensively in Thailand learning regional specialities as she went, before taking her skills to England, where she extended her repertoire to include the best of European cooking. Here she met her husband James, before they both moved to the USA in 2008, for what was supposed be just be a couple of years..

We offer fresh and delicious sushi along with homemade Thai food and an eclectic mix of select Asian items. We are casual, and located one block off of Washington St in downtown Middleburg. Our food is amazing because we make our sauces from scratch, everything from the vinegar for the sushi rice to the Pad Thai sauce and curries. We are three Thai sisters, and we love what we do!

    Wonderful place for a great meal. They will make your experience special. The service was wonderful and the food was prepared quickly and cooked to perfection. They have a great wine list and several good drinks. I can't say enough good things about the restaurant! I really enjoyed my meal and the atmosphere.

    The Mother Day Event was very well attended and executed. A limited menu, 2 course and desert. The Filet Mignon with a crab sauce was excellent. I especially liked the starter Country Terrine - delicate with lovely fresh herbs. The dessert was a chocolate mousse shaped like a 1/2 donut with a light (but delicious) sauce. Portions were just right. Life partner has a rack of lamb that was worthy of 5 stars (I was not offered a sample). Goodstone keeps getting better and the addition of Jim McGavin as mixologist is a huge win for all.

    Absolutely amazing! Stunning restaurant, beautiful views, EXCELLENT food and perfect cocktails. We went on a Sunday evening with barely anyone in the restaurant so it was super quiet. I know on Friday and Saturday nights it has more of a lounge feel with a DJ but we wanted to make sure we like it first. Very reasonably priced and every single thing we had including dessert was incredible. Our waitress was the sweetest. Returning soon!
