Sabai Thai Restaurant

0 Stars ****SWILL ALERT**** Today, I feel like a doomed protagonist in a food tragedy gone horribly wrong. This place serves fare from Thailand, China, and Japan. The sushi roller is Thai, the cook Chinese and no one is Japanese. As I've mentioned repeatedly, sushi is only consumed in Thailand by tourists. These places tend to be hit-and-miss. This is a stand-alone; although the name is prevalent throughout the States, it is not part of a chain. At least not that my editor could find out online. Annie is the server and handles the entire restaurant impressively without missing a beat. She is working 12 full tables. This shows you want tenacity and hard work will get you. I asked Annie for some Pad Se Eaw, Green Curry with Tofu, a J.B. Temaki Roll and one Tuna Roll. As soon as Annie returned with my grub, I snapped a few pics and got to work. Everything looked and smelled fine. However, that is not why people eat. People eat because they are hungry and the food is good. Their offering of Pad Se Eaw was first up on the Big Boy's palate. Pad Se Eaw are stir-fried flat noodles with egg and fresh vegetables served in a Thai sweet soy sauce. If it only tasted half as good as it read, this would be a different review. As it stands, the sauce was fetid and inedible. Or maybe the noodles were bad. Regardless, I couldn't eat it. After the failed Pad Se Eaw, I focused on the Green Curry with Tofu. I love Green Curry. Traditionally served with bell peppers, carrots, bamboo shoots, green peas, zucchini, horapha (Thai Basil), and snow peas simmered in coconut milk and green curry paste. The combination of the Green Curry zing and the Coconut Milk's sweetness is one of my favorite flavor combinations. My protein of choice for this dish was tofu. I knew this was not good in one bite as the tofu was dry. This told me it wasn't stored properly. Now, whoever made this dish knew that when they got the tofu out of the walk-in or from under the prep table and decided to serve it to me anyway. FAIL. The J.B. Temaki roll was staring at me in anticipation, and I figured it had to get better. I wrapped my meat hooks around it and tentatively took a bite. It tasted so fishy that I checked the dumpster on the way to my car to see what smelled worse. This was waaaaaaaay past edible. Strike 3! Usually, I would call it quits at this point, but I did have one more selection to sample—their Tuna Roll. After the fishy J.B. Temaki, I was extraordinarily leery but had a job to do. SMELL YOUR SUSHI ROLLS PEOPLE. These little Thai clip joints hold the near fatal sushi for the rolls. I waived the fish under my proboscis. My nostrils just closed in sympathy with my recollection. Absolutely life threatening. The Big Boy says, “I just spent $72.00 for an unsweetened tea! Do NOT eat here. ****SWILL ALERT****

This place was fabulous! We were in a rush and they had our orders in and the food out super fast. And it was not half-baked. It was extremely tasty. We opted for Thai, getting a Massaman curry with chicken and a noodle dish with beef. Both of these were amazing. Total cost after tip was still under $40 which is unheard of for 2 people in 2023. We are often in the area but rarely eat out due to having family we usually eat at home with. If we have another night where we need to grab dinner, we would absolutely come back here.

I had this meal delivered so I can’t comment on the service or atmosphere but the food was great! The crab Rangoon was STUFFED with sweet crab and cream cheese. The were so plump and juicy! The soup was flavorful but a little more watery than I like, and only 1 shrimp was in it when I paid extra for it. But I still enjoyed every drop. The sashimi was super fresh! I just love the assortment they did as they are my favorites when it comes to just raw slices of fish. Generous amounts of wasabi too and I always have to add on some eel sauce. Yum!!

Delicious food! The drunken noodles with chicken were extremely flavorful and they had the right amount of spice. I could easily eat this dish for breakfast, lunch and dinner without getting tired of it. The staff was very nice and welcoming, the food came out fast and it exceeded our expectations. Definitely coming back here!

If your craving sushi this is the place to go! Always fresh, served chilled and just delicious!. Their thai curries and noddles dishes are very good. I noticed now they are even doing poke bowls. Excited to try them soon.
