Whenever I'm craving a comforting bowl of soup, this is one of my go-to spots for khao poon. Even though the noodles can sometimes become a little soft by the time it's delivered, the broth is incredibly rich, creamy, and full of flavor, which always makes it worth ordering. I also highly recommend their chicken skewers. They're perfectly seasoned and packed with so much flavor that you honestly don't even need any additional sauce. read more

I've seen lots of post about them and I've seen people talk, so I decided to stop by after an event in Lodi. Unfortunately it did not hit the spot. raw beef laab - They told me they could not make it bitter. So I got medium spice. It had next to no flavor. There was no powder, no acidity, there was nothing. It just tasted like chopped beef. it looked nice. but lacked any flavor. 1/5 would not recommend. Nam Khao w/shrimp - this was delicious, the rice was extra crispy which some may not like. but I enjoyed it. The shrimp needed some of the same seasoning. It tasted overcooked and plain. but all in all I enjoyed it. would get again 5/5 Lao style papaya (medium) - no. This missed the mark by a long shot. It tasted like thai style papaya with a dash of tamarind and fish paste. It lacked the strong smell of Lao style papaya and lacked the strong acidic taste. It was very light with a hint of acidity. It wasn't nasty, it just missed the mark 3/5 read more

Honest review. They have one of the best raw beef laab I've had. So refreshing. I like how it's minced very different from how i am used to eat it. I only had their food via doordash so i don't know how it is inside... I also bought the beef skewers but we weren't much fans of it. i think the beef skewers can be improved. But let me tell you... the raw beef laab!!! i'm in love with it.. I bought it twice. first time it was to share with my husband... second time.. i made sure i bought one for me and one for my husband... and I STILL STOLE SOME OF MY HUSBAND! If you don't like raw they have the cooked version but i did not try it. read more

Visited this location today and glad to see there was a lot of people. Ordered take out, and ordered their banh mi and kapoon. Their chicken banh mi was HUGE! Enough to share with two people. Our go to is always their kapoon. Both were very delicious. read more

SEA Hut - Free Thai tea if you check in! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Came a lil past 1, got seated right away, after a little bit they got soo busy alot of togo orders. Lwk did not expect the interior to be a bit jank(?) or like not super modern and a bit dirty lol but didnt mind too much. We ordered the beef stew w jasmin rice (18.95) , kapoon (16.95) and papaya salad (14.95). Also 4 orders of skewers (2 for 5$ happy hour). Took a bit to come out, like 20 mins ish for everything. Overall flavoring was decent, kapoon had a much milder flavor than i expected, beef stew had like a pho broth taste and pretty tender, papaya salad good flavor lots of sauce. Chicken skewers much better than beef. Service was on the low end tbh, it was two ppl in the front and i get they were kinda busy running around but we had to ask and wait for everything. Had to ask for hot water twice (never recieved), utensils and napkins, and the bill + boxes. I understand they were quite busy but it just made our experience on the lower end. read more

Service was good. This time I got the Thai Tea, which if you're fan of yours leaning more strong on the tea side, this would be good, but I prefer mine more creamy and sweet. I also ordered the crispy chicken wings this time, and it was good, but it made me realize how much better their angel wings are. Finally, not pictured, but their kaopieks has to be my fav dish of theirs. I LOVEEE me some kaopiek with chili oil. read more

I always wanted to try this resturant out but because I live on the other side of town and has never felt the need to drive all the way to Elk Grove to try it. So when I was coming back into town and Elk Grove was gonna be the place we stop for dinner I chose SEA hunt. The restaurant is located in a small plaza. The resturant itself was a bit small. We order their popular dishes. We order the nam khao, papaya salad, kapoon and ka phia. That was all so good., the kapoon broth was delicious. The nam khao is the best. It's super crispy and delicious. The server was quick and very helpful we enjoy our food here. read more

Came Friday night for dinner and were surprised to be informed that the happy hour lunch deal was going through the entire day! We ordered 2 sets of the lunch beef and chicken skewer deal (2 skewers for $5), kapoon (HUGE BOWL, more than enough for 2 meals), and a Laotian style papaya salad. The papaya salad was definitely tasty but spicier than I expected it to be. It was very refreshing when paired with the skewers (very juicy texture) and the kapoon! The kapoon includes chickens and quail eggs, and you can choose the type of noodle you want for your soup, as well as add additional ingredients to the soup. I think this place is such value add! The only aspect that docked some points was the soup was a lukewarm when it arrived to the table and the Thai tea did not meet my expectations. It's a very homey restaurant though and the service is great! Overall, would recommend checking this restaurant out! read more

I've had a few of their dishes several times now, and even ordered a large party tray of their Nam Khao--it's the closest I've found to authentic Thai, Cambodian, and Lao flavors. I've dined in once with a friend and liked how beautifully each dish was presented; the spread looked amazing. Most of the time, though, I order takeout. They offer a great variety of dishes ranging from small appteziers like their beef skewers to Banh Mi sandwiches and main entrees. I feel like their portions sometimes come out smaller than expected and doesn't fill me up as much. Some of my favorites are the Nam Khao Fried Rice and the Spicy Popcorn Chicken Larb--both are incredibly flavorful and a must-try. I've also tried their Lao sausage (sometimes a hit or miss but still tasty), papaya salad (Lao style), lemongrass beef soup (just okay for me) kao poon (could use more flavor), and stuffed chicken wings (very flavorful). The Thai tea was decent but not my favorite. My son likes their drunken noodles and basil fried rice. They also serve smoothies and even have Gunther's ice cream, which is a nice bonus! read more

Check out the amount of shrimp!! I ordered a Grilled shrimp bahi mi sandwich and I truly enjoyed the flavor and the quality of shrimp. When you order shrimp, it can always be hit or miss, but this place was a hit. I do wish it had a touch more fresh veggies inside but the spicy mayo mixed with fresh jalapeño was delicious. It service was ok... one guy ordered my food and told me it would be about 15 minutes .. which is fine. There was plenty seating available. The ice cream area looked out of service. The only thing that threw me off is when I went to pick up my food....There was a bowl sitting out with what appeared to be rolled sausage inside. I don't know if it was defrosting or about to be cooked, but it was sitting out in room temperature. I also don't know how long it was sitting there... but on the bright side I didn't get sick so i would definitely eat this again! read more

Been on my list for a while and I finally went and tried it! A relatively small place but the food is absolutely amazing! Ordered an array of different food and each one was so delicious and flavorful. The kapoon was creamy with a little kick and spice with the perfect amount of noodles. Egg rolls and cheese wontons were not skimpy and had filling maxed out! They have all day happy hour now which includes cheap appetizers and drinks. Staff were super nice and friendly and just the sweetest! I was upset I didn't come sooner in the day to get their stuffed chicken wings but I will definitely be coming back real soon! read more

I've decided to try something different. I drove here that was recommended by my cousin. Upon entering, it gave a modern cafe vibe. It appeared to be only young college people but later saw middle aged customers coming in. There were QR Code menus at the tables. It was Happy Hour so I ordered the shrimp roll, chicken egg roll and wings. It was more than enough for me as I was full when I left. I also ordered the grilled pork sandwich to go but I forgot to photograph it. The service was good even though the guy running the cash register was also the waiter. Which is fine. He was really nice. It's a really nice place. It was clean and well maintained. I would return again to try the other stuff on the menu. read more

Absolutely delicious south east Asian food! It seems like they mostly specialize in Lao, Thai, and Cambodian flavors here. We ordered the SEA platter, nam khao, beef laab, and kapoon. The service here is top notch, i didn't catch her name but there was this dark haired asian girl who was so kind & patient with us! The kapoon was so creamy and flavorful and I loved how tender the chicken was. Nam khao is a dish I order at every Lao restaurant and they did such a great job here! They were super generous with the nam sausage pieces as well! We got the beef larb medium rare (at recommendation of our server) and it was absolutely fire! The meat was tender and it tasted so delicious with the other dishes. The SEA platter was huge and perfect to split within 4 people. The beef sticks were my favorite part of the SEA platter, they were smokey and had so much flavor! I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area!! read more

I forgot about this place. If it wasn't in this area I would frequent it more often. They're so good with flavors and portions. We got the beef larb, papaya salad Thai style medium spicy which was just right, stuffed chicken wings, a few shishkabobs. Really good Asian fusion spot!! read more

I still love SEAHUT. We love supporting small business and the food never disappointments. It's always consistent and never fails. Great on pricing too! The ambiance is really chill and sometimes it can be quite busy so the service might take some time during rush hour or lunch hour. Please be patient with the staff but they WILL get to you. read more

Back at it again and this time, I remembered to take a picture lol Came in for a late lunch and yes, got the loaded fries with chicken and shrimp! Yum yum yum sooo good. We paired it up with their Mango Paradise which is a special on Mondays and only $3.00 and their Taro with Boba. Of course, had to get some crab wonton - never disappoint! Service is always pleasant. Young man, Sam was polite and attentive. The owner Mora even came by the table to check in on us which was sweet. Will need to come back when I have a bigger appetite - their Kapoon was calling my name. Hahahahaha read more

SEA Hut - Over burnt chicken wings. They should give me a new one instead of giving me this one. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Elk Grove, California

This is the only place I like my kapoon from. However, everything at Sea Hut will hit the spot. Kapoon 5/5* When they had their old sister location, Sea Bowl, their kapoon was by far my favorite out of all the places that I've ever ate kapoon. Kapoon is curry based, and most places make it too salty or too much curry flavor. This one was perfectly balanced and on the sweeter, creamier side, with more coconut milk. After they closed their sister location and only kept Sea Hut open, which only served sandwiches at the time, I was so bummed. But post pandemic, I was thrilled to find they now serve all the soups from the other location again. The kapoon slightly changed..spicier and with different noodle options and add ons such as bamboo, gizzards, or pork blood. I tried it with gizzards and it added a different texture to the soup. Overall, still my all-time favorite spot for kapoon. Nam Khao 5/5* Perfectly crunchy, perfectly seasoned with a sweet and salty fish sauce flavor that isn't too pungent or overwhelming. Nice large chunks of Nam that you can actually taste. Beef Stew 5/5* Comfort food at its best. Cambodian beef stew is almost identical to Vietnamese Bo Kho, and this one reminds me of the flavors of childhood. The broth is rich with beefy flavor from the tender chunks of meat, balanced out with sweet carrots and onions. Lemongrass Chicken Sandwich 5/5* I'm hard to please when it comes to bánh mì. Chicken, pickled papaya, spicy mayo? I was skeptical at first with the deviations from original banh mi, but this combination works so well. The lemongrass really shines through, the grilled chicken was juicy, pickled veggies are tart and abundant, and the most important part, the bread, was soft with a thin toasted crispy outer layer. I've come here countless times and have tried a variety of their menu and so far everything here is delicious. Also, don't miss out on the chef's creative special dish, which rotates around holidays or so and is posted on Instagram. Their food definitely is comforting and tastes like home cooking. read more

We came as a party of 2 on a Wednesday around 2PM seated and served immediately, didn't have to wait too long for our food. Theres a decent amount of seating for a small restaurant. Seemed to get busy with high schoolers as we were getting ready to leave so keep that in mind if you want to avoid a crowd. Bathrooms are available and very clean as well. We ordered 2 Kaopiek ($15.95 each) and 1 Papaya Salad ($15.95) but unfortunately didn't enjoy it as much as the sides. The Kaopiek was mostly soup, not much noodle and the Papaya Salad was quite expensive for the quantity it came with and not spicy per our server's recommendation for the spice level. We did enjoy the food a lot the last time we came but I'm not sure if the staff changed within the year, we also had a hard time getting the employees to refill our water since they were in the back most of the time. read more

This place has been on my to try list to try for a while now and today my husband and I decided to finally try it. When you first walk in it's pretty small and cute, which is expected as most Thai restaurants are small. We were seated immediately and water was brought out. The staff was friendly and came to check on us every so often, refilling our water and whatnot. Which I really appreciate. My husband ordered the lunch special stuffed angel wings with a side of sticky rice. It came with a side of dipping sauce which was pretty good but a little on the sour side. The angel wings were very flavorful but my husband said it was a little too herby for him from the holy basil. It also came with a choice of 1 piece of fried cream cheese wonton or chicken egg roll. He chose the cream cheese wonton. Those are never disappointing. I got the beef larb (raw). I love raw beef larb so any Thai or Laos restaurant I go to, if they offer it I always get it to try. The flavor was more on the sour side and it wasn't bitter at all. I don't mind as I do like it a little sour too. I wasn't sure if bitter was an option as it wasn't stated in the menu. It also doesn't come with tripe which is usually traditional in larb. But it's not bad. It also came with an egg roll or cream cheese wonton. I chose the chicken roll. The egg roll was really good. I took 2 bites and gave the rest to my 2 year old. He killed it. I also ordered a side of sticky rice with the larb, which is a must! We also got Lao style papaya. Out of all the food we got, I would have to say the papaya was the best. I also love that it comes with a side of vermicelli noodles, peanuts, cabbage and fried pork skin. It was delicious. Overall, this place was decent. Next time I go back I'll try their kapoon which seems to be very popular. read more

This is one of my favorite go to spot. I am super picky (like always) with my laab and papaya salad.. but I was not disappointed!

I know this might sound weird but I'm picky on how my papaya is shredded.. but SEA Hut is perfect!!! And to top it off, the service is amazing! I have eaten there a couple of times and I love the atmosphere. Not too loud, and over crowded. This is my definite go to spot! Thank you! read more

SEA Hut - Shrimp SEA Box - Asian Fusion Near Me - Elk Grove, California

Had a chance to finally try the SEA Hut that I've heard so much about. My first item to get at any SE Asian restaurant is the kapoon. It's my reference item that I use to compare and contrast. The restaurant is cozy and probably seats about 20-30 people. It's tucked away in the older part of Elk Grove and has that quaint 80s feel. The staff was nice and told us to sit anywhere. My kapoon was very nice and came with the usual condiments, including cabbage, bean sprouts, and mint leaves. The soup was hot enough for my liking, and had that nice creamy coconut milk goodness. It wasn't spicy at all to me, which was a little disappointing compared to other fiery ones I've had. The noodles were nice and soft but not too much so. Overall I enjoyed it but it's not as good as some I've had in south sac. My companion tried the stuffed chicken wings and I tried it as well, and it was very flavorful with a nice crispy skin. The stuffing was more tastly than other's I've had in the past. Overall a good experience at SEA Hut and I'd like to come back and try more items. read more

Safe to say that this little hidden gem in Elk Grove will be taking my money for many years to come..... I stepped into SEA Hut FINALLY last Thursday! And let me tell you, this eatery marks all 5 stars on all categories! They have lots of parking, lots of delicious eats to choose from, it's clean, it's cute, very friendly staff and the food is AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS!!! I got there a little after 11 a.m., and I am so glad I did because it was POPPIN' with online and to go orders before noon! I was greeted by my kind server Derek, he is simply amazing and was such a pleasure to meet! He has wonderful customer service and just a kind soul! I really appreciated his service for my first time dining in! He took really good care of ya, girl! I already knew what I wanted to try, which was the Lao Lovers, which was stir fry chicken tossed with up garlic, chili oil, onions, and bell pepper! And it was more on the saucy side, which I had been craving! Perfect pairing with Jasmine rice!!! I asked for level 6 heat and let me tell you, my mouth was crying a little, but it was soooo good! I got the Lao Lovers lunch special with a chicken egg roll! Also, I love their no ice sweat water cups! Super cute and their little utensil bucket, which has chopsticks, spoon, fork, and napkins! Food came out PIPING hot as I LOVE, and I also asked for two sunny side eggs, and it was just chef's kiss! That first bite, the explosion of FLAVOR! The garlic, tender chicken, and the heat from fresh crushed Thai chilis!! Sooooo FLAVORFUL! And their chicken egg roll was hot and crispy! I really just wanted to meet the chef and shake their hand cause SEA Hut has a customer for LIFE! read more

I recently found this cute little hole-in-the-wall near old Elk Grove. I've been looking for a place in Elk Grove that makes good Southeast Asian food and this place really delivers! I usually get the Nam Khao, which is spicy, crispy fried rice. It is so aromatic and flavorful, the pieces of sausage scattered throughout provide little pockets of flavor. It also comes with mint and slices of cucumbers which are cooling, especially if you like it spicy like me. Highly recommend if you are in the area and craving Southeast Asian food. read more

We have been driving by Sea Hut and always intended to check it out. We ended up dining in last Monday and the ordered a takeout order on Saturday. It was sooooo delicious!!! I am terrible with names. The lady that waited on us was super friendly. She was vibrant with a big smile. She helped us with all of our questions. When you check in on Yelp, there's a free Thai tea upon checking in. We did not ask for it because we are cutting back on sugar! The restaurant is smaller, but ample seating. Everything looked clean and in order. It's a shared parking lot, but there's plenty of parking. The people here are very nice and helpful. The food is FABULOUS so I am super excited on trying out their other menu items. We enjoyed their Beef Skewers, Beef Laab, Nam Khao, Spicy Lao Sausages, and the Sticky Rice! Everything was burst with flavors. This is my new favorite go to restaurant!!! read more
