I will forever be a Sawatdee super fan! Every location is great, but my favorite is Maple Grove! The staff have always been friendly and quick and the food is served fresh with efficiency! My family and I have been going to Sawatdee since I was a kid, I've tried many items from their menu, my go to is always the chicken satay (with the peanut sauce AND cucumber sauce), the fresh veggie spring rolls, also dipped in the cucumber sauce, the Pad Thai, Pad see Yew, or Spicy Noodles! The red curry chicken is amazing as well as the massaman curry! I cannot recommend Sawatdee enough! Their "Thai for Two" Tuesday special is a great deal! read more

Sawatdee - Chicken Satay Supenn's Fresh Spring Rolls - Thai Near Me - Maple Grove, Minnesota

What can say sometimes it's takes one bad experience to change you whole view of a place after ordering food we waited close to an half an hour which is a very long time based on previous visits and no there wasn't a large crowd my wife even made a come t to me it's seems they completely forgot we are here to make a long story short I'm not one that will beg you to take my money so I refused my dish when it finally came and decided at that moment the good feelings I had for the place had been destroyed never to return again read more

Stopped in for lunch. We had the Thai lemongrass noodles with pork and a green curry dish. Both were very tasty and had enough to bring some home. A very nice, clean restaurant. read more

It is in the shopping mall area, so it's very convenient for parking and for visiting other places before or afterward. The spring roll is huge and fresh. The veggie dish is average, which is totally fine. The Thai noodles are very spicy, even for someone like me with a high tolerance for spice. I asked for a medium level, but it was still very spicy. The server was very nice and welcoming. He asked us about our preferred spice level for each dish. The place is spacious, but quite dark. It was hard for me to see the menu clearly, even though we had lunch there. However, the decor is very culturally rich. read more

The dishes taste really improvement. You mix heavy curry sauce on top of any pre-cooked chicken or beef does not make it good curry chicken. read more

The service was the worst Ive had in my 68 years on this earth. It took a LOOOONG time just to get the food. They served the food, and we had no silverware, so it sat there getting cold in the freezing air conditioning. I had to go into the Kitchen after 4 minutes to demand silverware ... and we still had to wait. The food was good, however in my Seafood Delight, I found some UNdelightful soggy shrimp. SOGGY SHRIMP! They were the texture of wet bread! Very gross. This was, needless to say, very disappointing as I had an excellent meal and service at the downtown location just last week. read more

My second time trying this place and it was as disappointing as I remember. My friend and I met for an early dinner around 4. She ordered a Blackberry mojito. It was happy hour and they were already out of Mint. There was only one other table of people there besides us. I ordered the Catfish curry and was told they were out of Catfish as well. Our server suggested the Salmon curry so I decided to give it a try. I was very disappointed with the dish. The Salmon tasted like it was sitting in the freezer for a long time. I will give 4 stars for service eventhough the food was not great. Our server was very friendly and nice. Sorry to say I will not be returning. read more

Amazing fresh Thai food! We opted for lunch specials because we didn't want to overeat, but ended up bringing some home anyway (good portions!). This was our first visit to the Maple Grove location of Sawatdee so parking was a challenge until we discovered parking behind the buildings. Great service today from Michael, especially keeping our water glasses full when eating the spicy entrees. read more

I was feeling sick and for the last 28 hours and had nothing to eat as I was dog sitting. I ordered chicken pad Thai and fresh spring rolls. Both were tasty and I ate the spring rolls in like 5 minutes I was that famished. The pad Thai was equally as delicious and I ordered mine medium spice level which was perfect. My only gripe was I wish I would have ordered more dipping sauce for my spring rolls but that's my fault. Shout out to my Uber Eats driver for delivering it 5 minutes earlier than expected. read more

I LOVE this place. The food is so dang good, I wish I could eat it everyday. My favorite is the Pad Thai and Tea

Got takeout order. Tried the cream cheese wontons, which were good. The sauce to go on the wontons was too runny. Tried lemongrass pasta with chicken, spice level 2. I would only get level 1 spice in the future. Don't recommend the dish as it was laden with greasy sauce. The portion for the lemongrass pasta was large. read more

Did you know that Sawatdee has an amazing happy hour?!? This is my favorite time to go. My hubby and I snuck away for some appetizers and only paid $20 for 3 apps! - Fresh spring rolls are one of my favorite things! Their dipping sauce makes this so amazing. Sawatdee was the first Thai restaurant I had when I was in elementary school and it has started in my memories for all these years. The consistency and flavors are the same as what I remembered. - Chicken Satay - Yummy yum! The chicken has such an scrumptious marinade and those dipping sauces... yes! Good as usual - Sarong Sawatdee Special- crispy noodle balls surrounding a peppering chicken ball center. Dip them in the sweet chili sauce... or dunk in the fresh spring roll sauce. Both are great! I'm actually craving these again! I've never had anything like them and I can't stop thinking about them. Yums! Thanks for an epic happy hour! We will be back soon. Sad that people are writing negative comments due to needing more staff. It will get better! Thanks again! read more

Delicious food and warm, friendly service on this cold dreary evening. I'll definitely come back another time and order a bigger meal. Tonight I was not very hungry so I ordered wonton soup and spring rolls. Was much more than I expected and packed with fresh vegetables. So flavorful! read more

This is the first time I have tried Sawatdee. A Maple Grove friend recommended this establishment and we were both pleased. We had choice of a lunch menu available weekday afternoons. I ordered the cashew stir-fry because I love water-chestnuts and it was very good at a decent price.The establishment has low lighting, music, and interesting decorative pieces throughout. And the staff was service oriented checking on us several times. Parking was very easy. read more

I used to love Sawatdee-it was a lively, modern, and energetic Thai restaurant. But wow, has it gone downhill. The place is in serious need of a remodel; the entire restaurant feels and looks worn out. I'm not sure if ownership has changed or if it's been passed down to the original owner's kids, but they really need to reinvest in the space. The food is still decent, though it can sometimes lack flavor depending on what you order. That said, my rating is almost purely based on the atmosphere. Which has frankly reached the level of depressing. read more

We were in the area and stopped here for lunch. It was a disappointing dining experience. The place was quiet, not very busy. The server was nice, but not very attentive. We had to wave someone down for water refills. Never checked on us after food was delivered. Had to go find him to get boxes and our bill. We ordered the fried springrolls, the duck, wonton soup, stuffed wings, and pad see ew. It took a loonnggg time for food to come out. Springrolls- came out warm, not hot. Not crunchy like I had expected. Duck- overcooked and tough. Came with a side of jalapeño soysauce. Just salty, no depth of flavor. It was a sad looking duck. :( Wonton soup- lukewarm, soggy wontons. Just kind of just disintegrated in my mouth. Wings- meh. Pad see ew- beef was tough, very chewy. Dish was lacking that smoky flavor I look for in a good fried noodle dish. Just soy sauce. On everything. Overall, poor food quality. Really missing all the components and flavors of good Thai dishes. read more

Ordered vegetarian Pad Thai and vegetarian Supenn's Fresh Spring Rolls through GrubHub, and when they arrived both were wrong. The spring rolls came with shrimp and chicken in them and I was able to get a refund through GH. I started eating the Pad Thai and realized a few bites in that there was chicken hidden within the noodles. I couldn't submit another help ticket, so I'm stuck with $25 worth of food I can't even eat. When Sawatdee gets the order right, the food is delicious - but at this point it just isn't worth the risk, especially if you have dietary restrictions or allergies. More often than not, your order will not be correct. Edited to add: The last time I had an issue like this, I called the store for resolution - all they said was "sorry, it won't happen again" and no offer to make it right. read more

They're clearly understaffed. They have a sign stating this & a robot delivers your food. I'm understanding of this. But to never check on the table after the robot delivers the food isn't great either. We couldn't get water refills until our check was brought to the table & there was only about 6-8 tables occupied. The robot needs some kinks worked out as well. Twice we heard giant crashes of dishes onto the floor. I think it has issues going from carpet to tile. As for the food, the spring rolls are delicious. Pad Thai was good. Cashew stir fry was predominantly water chestnuts. I ordered as a spice level 2, and the spice was virtually non existent. Probably opt for something different next time. read more

Consistently good Thai food in downtown Maple Grove. Not very busy, so easy to get seated. The decor is looking a bit worn, but food is good and easy for take out as well. Full bar, great for casual date night or friend meet. read more

The food is great. I love the egg rolls and panang Curry with extra chicken. The only reason it wasn't 5 stars is because the curry sometimes is a little watery. read more

I tried to order online And the sushi menu wasn't on so I went in to order take out. I was told that part of the restaurant wasn't open--but it was within the time they should be open--granted it was close, so no big deal on that. I wanted sashimi and that is all. When I ordered I said the reddest tuna you have, hamachi and salmon. I asked for yuzu they had no idea what it was. Not that big of a deal but when I got my order I was disappointed. I asked the server I ordered from just for reference how much sashimi would there have been on the sashimi platter And they didn't know the answer. Menu said chefs Selection of 5 types of fish...and would be served with miso for the platter...server didn't suggest the platter--just an order taker who didn't even know the menu or the fish. My receipt say albacore...not a very red tuna...No thanks. See picture---I'd pass up this place. There was zero presentation...and I had to ask for things I had already ordered when I put in my order. While I was waiting for my order the only table in the restaurant had to get up and ask for two sets of chopsticks... read more

Sawatdee - Thai Near Me - Maple Grove, Minnesota

Still not one of my favorites for Thai food. Decided to give them a try after many years avoiding them based on previous poor experiences with service. This visit didn't do much to change my mind. No service problems, but the food is just ok and the space is pretty boring. We started with Egg Rolls (meh) and the Sarong Sawatdee Special which is ground chicken wrapped in noodles and deep fried. It used to be a tightly wrapped ball, but this time was more spread out. The result is that it all fell apart when you tried to cut into it so that we ended up with a huge pile of fried noodles on the plate when we were done. My wife had the Shrimp & Scallops in Gralic Sauce which she always gets and continues to like. There's a good amount of seafood in the dish. I had the Shrimp Pad Thai and found it to be overly sweet and drowning in sauce. I'm not going to rush back. read more

Chicken pad Thai was great!! We used their online ordering system for pickup and was super easy and food was ready on tine and piping hot! Also portion size was great! read more

Stopped for dinner and was seated right away. Plenty of seating, tables and booths. They're low on staff so wait time for food took longer than normal. However food was amazing! Pad Thai was perfect! The egg rolls were my favorite. It's definitely a large size with a crunchy wrap, stuffings had a good mix of meat and some vegs. Paradise wings (stuffed chicken wings with bean thread noodles and meat) was so good! There wasn't too much of the meat or vegetables but a good mix of both. Comes with a sweet sauce that goes pretty well with the wings and egg rolls. The wonton soup was ok, small amount of broth loaded with vegetables, meat and wontons. I prefer a more brothy wonton soup. There's only street parking, I was lucky to score one right by the door. There's a back lot but no entry to walk through the back so your best bet is to park in the street. Would definitely go back! read more

I have ordered Sawatdee before, but I am.finallt reviewing because we dined in! We sat at the bar & decided to do the zushiya side. Sawatdee is That cusine & Zushiya is sushi and other Japanese favorites. Sake Flight: I order a sake Flight which came with 3 different Sakes. It was really fun sampling & trying different kinds. The Tyke Coconut was fun & very coconut forward! One tasted like melon & the last was more earthy but delish. I love sake & trying new ones. Fresh Spring Roll: they are Stuffed with shrimp, chicken, crisp fresh vegetables & noodles. This was on the Happy Houe menu which goes from 4pm-6pm. These were great & a perfect way to start off the mean! Sushi & Boat: the sushi is really solid & the boat was a cool experience. I enjoyed eveything we had. Boat was $60 for 2 ppl & comes with 3 kinds of sashimi, 2 specialty rolls, and 3 nigiri. I also got the hit sake which & we did a sake bomb! It was a super fun time & the service was great! I am definitely looking forward to returning & trying more. read more

It was my first time here and the restaurant welcomed showcasing a banner of awards. I had a lot of expectations as my team members were of high praises for this place. We didn't have any waiting time and were seated right away for lunch. The menu was detailed and for the first time I was amazed to see a Volcanic Hot for level 5. I ordered a Curry styled Thai fried rice and we were a group of 10 people with each ordering mostly a fried rice. We waited, waited and waited and finally our orders came through. I went with a Medium Hot since i didn't want just crushed peppers to be thrown over my food for the level 5 heat. The food quantity was size-able and moderately tasty, but the medium hot was not even mildly hot. We were done eating and ordered for check and again we waited, waited and waited and finally it came through. The restaurant wasn't too busy but I found a serious shortage of hosts and as I quipped to my team mates, may be we should have placed our orders while starting off from work and asked for check right after we entered the restaurant. read more

I said I wouldn't. They told me I shouldn't. But it's true, so I'm going to say it: this was Sawatdee-licious! This restaurant claims to be "the first Thai restaurant in the five state area." Originality doesn't always mean the food will be good. But I'll tell ya that here, that rings true. It's fantastic! My party ordered Chicken Pad Thai, Shrimp Pineapple Fried Rice, and Toam Kha Gai  I had the Pad Thai, which was among the best I've eaten. Sweet and savory, it has many fresh, herbal notes and an incredible nuttiness throughout the quality noodles. The fried rice is to be enjoyed by fans of tropical tastes and seafood, but was very fresh. Toam Kha Gai is Chicken and Coconut milk soup with Lemongrass and plenty of mushrooms. Make sure you're down to try some fungi with this one Overall, this place was pretty good. Give it a Thai and you won't be disappointed;) read more

This is probably my favorite restaurant in this area. If you're trying to get a lot of food for an affordable price, you better believe this places happy hour is the best in the area! It's a good spot to hang out on days when you are bored. Stop by around 8pm and you can see live bands!! Happy hour: $3 rails (wow who can beat that? Not 3 squares although I love that place for breakfast) $5 glass of wine $1 off taps $3 edamame or cucumber roll $4 cream cheese wontons (that you seriously need to try! They are crispy and warm and delicious!) $4 spring rolls, and a variety of sushi rolls $5 chicken satay (good!!) $5 California roll (good and definite much cheaper than anywhere close by) $8 crunchy roll The owner is a cool cat. The people that sit at the bar soon become your local pals. It's a nice spot after 9pm for the music and happy hour food and drinks! Would I come back? Yes! Do I recommend you give it a try? Heck yes! read more

We decided to go to visit for lunch today. Restaurant not very busy seated right away just 2 of us. Ordered Thai iced coffee, spring rolls and we each had Laab Dan had beef and I had chicken both spicy at a 4 level. Spring rolls were fresh and delicious wish the dipping sauce would have had some heat but was tasty. Beef Laab seemed terribly salty chicken was good had to ask for rice which at other restaurants seems to come with the Laab. Next time would probably order a soup also just to round out the meal. Portions were adequate enough to take leftovers home. Took awhile to get recognized that we were ready for the check and needed to go containers read more

Ordered online and food was prepared fast. Guy at the front was very nice. I only order chicken laab. Flavor is definitely not 100% authentic but fair. I had ordered the level 2 spice, but I could've probably ordered lvl 4-5. the side lettuce and cucumbers were not crispy due to how much liquid was in the container. does not come with sticky rice sadly.

Although I am from this area, I had never stopped in to this restaurant (only the Minneapolis location).

Not too bad! Came here on Monday evening and sat outside , which is awesome that they have space to be outside. The food was good, service was okay. I ordered tropical fried rice and wanted it spicy but just looked like they added red pepper flakes and was not really spicy . The fried chicken wings and the egg rolls were very delicious, but entrees were good but not outstanding. Also , there was a mess up with our order and was added to our bill at the end and felt like no accountability on the mess up from their end (it was fixed eventually). At the moment they are also serving sushi from the restaurant next door (which was good and reasonably priced). If in the area might stop by and give it another chance . read more
