    Actually the best Thai I've ever had! So upscale with their food with very reasonable prices. The restaurant is off the beaten path. Nothing special to look at but clean. Service was friendly and fast.

    Eggplant with tofu dish
    Kim K.

    Sip saam thai was a mid experience. The eggplant dish with rice was supposed to be mild spice level and came with zero flavor. The friend rice with chicken was bland and didn't have much chicken. Chicken massaman curry was ok. Water is brought via a pitcher and glasses for you to self pour. We had to ask for more water. When I asked for some sauces to spice up my dish it took some time. Entrees were overpriced. It was conveniently located.

    First meal in San Antonio was here. A great spot about 14 minutes walk from the convention center. Walked in for lunch and I got the red curry beef special. Service was friendly. The meal was flavorful and perfect proportion for lunch. Nice spot with ample seating. I'm

    Massaman curry with beef and shrimp

    Stayed close by for business. When did sushi, but really no sushi places downtown. Settled here and was pleasantly surprised. Nice staff, plenty of seating, and great experience. Had the pad Thai chicken and massaman curry. Both were extremely tasty and had the perfect heat as we requested. We definitely come back again.

    The food was superb. We got their spring rolls with tofu and even my 2 year old liked them. We each got a lunch special pad Thai. It came with delicious soup and a crab Rangoon. Probably the best crab Rangoon I've ever had. Everything was so fresh. Service was superb. Very clean and relaxing. Stop here for good food and good service. I want to try the fried banana next time!

    I wanted to like this place more than I did, but the food itself is mediocre and overpriced. I went for lunch and got the drunken noodles, which comes as a combo with soup and one crab rangoon. The drunken noodles were pretty dry and one-dimensional tasting (almost like only soy sauce was used). The noodles themselves had a great texture. I also loved the soup, which reminded me of a hot and sour soup but a savory version without the hot and sour components. The moo ping was tasty but the meat did not have much char--it seemed like it was cooked steaming in sauce. The mango sticky rice was definitely the star, close to perfection. The mango was super sweet and juicy and the rice had just the right amount of coconut flavor. Service was friendly and fast. And everything was very nice decor-wise. The plates and interior matches the pricing of the menu.

    Spring rolls were very fresh

    So delicious! Very happy with the tom kha soup! Great service! Has a nice bar top and plenty of room, because it is downtown you may have to pay for parking! They were also fine with my service dog inside!

    Seafood yellow curry
    Anastasia V.

    The food at Sip Saam Thai was very good! The moo ping and pad see ew were so delicious and portions were a good size. Next time, I'd skip the drunken noodles since the flavor was a bit meh. My friend really liked the red curry with seafood and finished the whole plate. The restaurant was clean and staff was attentive and nice. If I'm in the mood for Thai food when visiting San Antonio again, I would go definitely go back to eat here.

    Drunken noodles hot hot hot fresh spring rolls with peanut sauce to die for I had to travel

    I traveled all the way from Southern California to have the best drunken noodles I've ever had in my small world service was outstanding ambience great this Mexican is full to the brim

    Salt & Pepper Shrimp perfection
    Marcos D.

    Exquisite in every aspect, sumptuous Thai food that is not the typical Thai joint. The Spring Rolls were the best I've had, the Curry Lamb Shank amazing, the Salt & Pepper Shrimp is perfection. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and the service is so friendly and attentive. My new downtown favorite!

    Hot sauce flight
    Marian G.

    The restaurant is average size with quiet music playing. Service is fast and the staff is professional and friendly. The food is absolutely delicious. I had pad woon sen and hubby had Thai pork spare ribs. They were so good but we will each try another dish when we come back.

    Kung op soon wen

    Just excellent. Went for the kung op soon wen, and I'd go back for it. The spicy fish sauce for dipping had a flavor profile I'd never encountered. The service was attentive. Nice decor, clean, simple. It all works.

    pad thai
    Amanda L.

    Pad thai not my favorite, but pad se ew was solid as well as the thai fried rice. The people here are very very nice. I would get the pad se ew and fried rice again but nothing else. Spice is 1-10 but you can add more spice later. Thai tea looked really good so maybe I'll try that next time.

Jenn was our server, and she was amazing very attentive, informative, and provided great service throughout our visit. The ambiance was a fun, lively vibe with music playing, and the restaurant was clean. The happy hour menu had a great selection, with everything from shrimp boils to cocktails. We started with the 1/2 dozen chargrilled oysters ($19.12) and the Smash'd Margarita Flight ($11 during happy hour). Chargrilled Oysters: 8.5/10 The oysters were cooked in garlic butter and Parmesan and served with crispy toast. The toast was definitely a highlight for me it added such a good texture and paired really well with the oysters. I would absolutely order these again! Smash'd Margarita Flight: (9/10) This was a fun way to get a taste of the different margaritas they offer. The prickly pear was my favorite of the flight! Shrimp Boil: (10/10) For our main meal, we ordered the shrimp boil from the happy hour menu and added a few extras. I loved how customizable the boils were. They have a great variety of add-ons, from broccoli to ramen noodles, and you can also choose your seasoning and spice level. Overall, we had a great experience. Good food, a fun atmosphere, plenty of options, and great service from Jenn. We'll definitely be back and those chargrilled oysters will be making another appearance at the table!

Several had been so boiled there was no meat left in the shell at all. -Personally I have never seen broccoli in a crab boil at all. But the broccoli was awful. My husband got the oysters that were flavorful but again extremely overcooked We were charged EXTRA for melted butter for the crab legs... WTAF! It was more like eating at the Taco Bell of seafood than anything else in my opinion. #wont be back!

The food feels like the chefs were given good quality materials, but had no idea what to do with them. We ordered a funghi pizza to share then a cinghiale, a costine (short ribs), and a dentice (bass). Funghi pizza was the only dish that made coming worth it at all. It had a nice flavor, but if you're expecting the notes of an earthy mushroom flavor, don't. It's just a nicer version of a standard cheese pizza topped with some onions and mushroom. The cinghiale was just stunningly mediocre. The meat was flavorful, but the pasta itself was shockingly bland. It was just so... ok. The dentice was the best of the 3 individual dishes, but it is just what you would expect some average short ribs with random sauce to taste. The costine was just terrible. Salty on the outside, yet flavorless on the inside. Avoid at all costs. The service was passable, but they clearly overwork their servers as one server just handles an entire section and is too overwhelmed to be timely. I came to cheer myself up, but honestly it only made dinner comically worse. I seriously can't imagine what would cause someone to rate this as 5 stars. Maybe if they thought Olive Garden was 4.5, then I guess this would barely be a 5 in comparison? Either way, if you're looking for good food for your dinner, keep looking. You won't find it here.
