    Stephanie G.

    Basil instead of ground chicken they put dry chicken pieces
    Gabriela M.

    Wanted to like this place, but during my second time ordering from them I found out that they do not honor their bogo specials they have posted on ubereats. Despite trying to speak with them over the phone about the promotion, they refused to honor the bogo special posted online. Additionally they got my order completely wrong and gave me shrimp wontons instead of chicken--I'm cannot eat shrimp and the basil was also incorrect because instead of ground chicken they put dry chicken pieces. I would have chosen a different food option had they told me they were not going to honor the buy one get one free special. I think this is really poor customer service to refuse to honor a promotion they listed despite my calling them and ubereats calling them, even though they had not yet finished preparing my order. This is the last time I will be ordering from this restaurant.

    Basil Fried Rice with shrimp
    Chris A.

    After a local favorite Thai spot shut down and relocated to Queens, my coworkers, and I have been on a quest to find our new favorite spot. We tried a couple locations in the neighborhood, but ultimately found this place to be all around quite good. The food was yummy and left us feeling full. I got a basil fried rice with shrimp with a side of vegetable dumplings that I enjoyed. My only feedback would be that I am really not a shrimp tail on kind of person (personal preference). I would actually try to go eat at this place in person to see how the vegetable dumplings would taste if they were fresh, as they were a little gooey and stuck to the delivery tinfoil. My other piece of feedback is that they could inspect the the labels are right on their food because me calling and I almost ate each other's food by accident because they miss labeled it. Overall really happy we found a spot - it's our lunchtime favorite!

    Red curry with chicken

    Such a cute Thai restaurant with cozy interiors and lovely workers. The red curry never disappoints and food is always fresh and yummy! Servers are always so friendly and I love coming here. It is a hidden gem and if you're in the area definitely go visit :)

    Good Thai food. However wasn't a fan of the baby roach that was in my sprite glass. Had to pretty much leave after that.

    I'm a Thai foodie from California and I really loved SaiTong! The restaurant was busy and I was by…read moremyself so I was happy to sit at the bar, and was attended to by the most sweet bartender ever. Very polite, professional and attentive. I first ordered the crispy spring rolls, which were very good. For my main I had the Massaman Curry. Now folks, this is my favorite curry of all time -- actually one of my favorite foods of all time -- and while it's common in LA where I used to live, it's not as common where I live now, in the Bay Area. And the restaurants that do carry it usually do not make it right and it's not very good. I am used to Massaman in the traditional preparation where it's more like a beef stew made with chunks of beef and needs to cook overnight. When done right it is the most aromatic curry ever -- it's almost like an aphrodisiac! -- and the beef comes out oh so tender. Usually if places have this curry but then offer a choice of protein, then it generally is not cooked properly, and that is actually how they prepare it at SaiTong. But because of such great reviews I decided to take a chance and try it. Well, let me tell you, it was definitely not the norm...it was absolutely delicious! I had it with chicken (they serve breast as default), and the chicken soaked up the curry really nicely. I also asked for there to be no onions, which I think alters the flavor of a curry too much. It does include the traditional potatoes and peanuts, and the potatoes were fine and cut into nice little chunks, the peanuts actually were thrown in raw.. what I think is the more traditional way which is to actually burn the peanuts a little bit, but that's okay, it didn't take down the dish any. Their brown rice is of the very dark kind, which I like, and goes so well with the curry. Service was wonderful from the bartender but was also provided by the rest of the staff and everyone was so nice. I left there feeling so satisfied, and cannot wait to go back and try some other dishes.

Taste wise is toward sweet and sour. As usual, Thai food not my cup of tea. Don't know why keep going back to Thai restaurants, hoping will find something suitable for my taste but so dar always disappointed.

Fortunately, there were plenty of options near my Midtown hotel that offered quick delivery. Dagg Thai was just around the corner and had solid Yelp ratings. Rather than creating an online account, I called the restaurant directly and placed my order. They estimated delivery would take about 25 minutes. Less than 20 minutes later, the food was waiting for me in the hotel lobby. I ordered: * Cashew Nuts with Shrimp -- Bell peppers, onions, scallions, cashews, and dried chilies. * Dumplings -- Mixed shrimp and pork served with a soy vinaigrette dipping sauce. The Cashew Nuts with Shrimp had a flavorful, light sauce with just the right amount of heat. I really enjoyed it. My only disappointment was that the shrimp were battered and fried; I would have preferred grilled or pan-seared shrimp. The dumplings were more like shoo-mai than traditional dumplings. They were a bit dense but still flavorful and satisfying. Considering the quick delivery, the food arrived piping hot, and the excellent Cashew Nuts dish, this was an easy four-star meal.

My friend and I were heading somewhere else for dinner, but our original spot was closed for a private event. We decided to pivot and come here instead, and it worked out very much in our favor! ​I actually just got back from a trip to Thailand, so I went in with high hopes but a curious mind about how the authenticity and flavors would compare. While there were naturally a few little differences in taste here and there compared to being on the ground in Thailand, it didn't dim the deliciousness whatsoever. The food here is absolutely stellar. ​We decided to sit at the bar, and both bartenders who looked after us were incredibly friendly, helpful, and super clear when explaining the specials. I asked one of them for their favorite recommendations, and it did not disappoint. ​Here is what we ordered: ​Pineapple Fried Rice ($21): We ordered it without adding any protein, and it was packed with flavor. Highly recommend. ​Pad Thai ($24): We added beef to this one, but honestly, the noodles were so incredibly flavorful on their own that it didn't even need the additive! ​Thong Pan Sai Gai ($17): These looked almost like little tacos but were uniquely delicious. ​Papaya Salad ($16) & Satay Spring Rolls ($16): Perfect, fresh starters to kick off the meal. ​Mango Sticky Rice ($17): A must try for dessert. They use purple rice for this, and it was so yummy. ​For drinks, my friend ordered a Lycheetini ($19) and loved it. I had the Tangmo, Tangmo, Tangmo ($20) which was nice and refreshing. ​Even though our meal was a mix of great apps and sides, it was incredibly filling. We actually walked out with leftovers. The prices are very fair for the quality and portion sizes you get. We will absolutely be returning!

However, when I got to the restaurant, I was told that they were not participating. When I brought this up to the staff, they did comment that several people made the same mistake earlier in the week. If that was the case, then why not correct the restaurant week website, or make it very obvious on your website that you aren't participating? Both of us were starving, and I had put in a birthday request at the restaurant, so we decided to stay. The ambiance is classy, and this would be a great spot for a business dinner or date night. I ordered a massaman curry with roti and chicken ($29), and my friend ordered the chuchi shrimp ($30) and curry puff ($16). Prices are a bit above average for the portion size, but justified by the area. We both enjoyed our dishes; the flavors were on point! Then, for my friend's birthday, they gave us mochi ice cream and a card signed by the staff! That was a nice touch that overrode the restaurant week debacle. Service was fantastic. There were multiple check backs and water refills. I would recommend Sabai Thai for a fancy night out, and I would return to try other dishes.

Medium spice was not spicy at all for us. - Duck curry: a bit small on the portions but the curry is magical. Was scraping this plate clean. - Bo luc lac: star dish for sure. Beef melts on your tongue and the marinade is slightly sweet and smoky. - Summer rolls: small portions but the flavor is there. Super refreshing and special bc they pickle the vegetables inside. - Crispy pork belly: reminds me of the crispy pork I had in Vietnam. Really well done, pairs well with the lettuce and herbs. That green sauce is so addicting. - Papaya salad: super refreshing, nice fish sauce. - Crab fried rice: reminds me of the din tai fung fried rice bc of how clean the flavor is.

The pad thai noodles are a big thinner than i've had before but that didn't bother me, it has such great flavor too. I recommend ordering it spicy, it's the perfect heat if you're looking for that kick but don't add it if you can't handle spice. The drunken noodles are not spicy in my opinion but i can handle a bit of heat. Loved the flavor and the noodles had the right texture, could've done without the huge chunks of tomato but great otherwise. The summer rolls were good, hard to mess those up. We also got a free mango salad with the order and that was so fresh and delicious. We just popped in for pick up but the hostess was really nice and attentive as soon as we walked in. It looked to be a nice casual spot, could be good for dinner with friends or date night.
