Attraros Thai Eatery<\/p>\n

The Thai restaurant in the Swan\u2019s Marketplace building in Old Oakland has closed. The restaurant<\/a> was known for regional Thai dishes and an appetizer sampler that made the best Thai dish list in the Chronicle. The restaurant was open for two years, and was operated by Akara Sutraromluck and Pim Soithong of Pintoh Thai in Oakland, which is still open. A note in the window reads, in part, \u201c From time to time, we\u2019ll be bringing back beloved Attraros dishes as special features at Pintoh, so a little piece of Attraros lives on.\u201d Attraros Thai Eatery<\/a>, 542 9th St., Suite B, Oakland.\u00a0<\/p>\n
