Always fast, and genuinely some of the best thai in town. I love coming here with friends and eating it at a park or just in the car! He gives massive portions and the prices are so low compared to other places around town. Cannot recommend Sam's thai enough!

Best Thai food in Fairbanks, possibly the nation. Great big portions with tall thai tea drinks, never disappoints.

Sam’s has been my favorite Thai restaurant in Fairbanks for years, even through the change of ownership. The food and service are consistently amazing, and the quantities are generous. He actually gives enough rice for the entire meal, at no extra charge. And Lao always greets with a smile.

Really becoming one of our absolute must go to places in fairbanks. Very nice guy, and a beautiful view of the goldstream valley while you wait. Excellent Thai iced tea, nice drunken noodles, fresh and crunchy broccoli and vegetables, and a smile every time I go! I highly recommend it.

Great little food stand for goldstream. It's always hot and usually prepared quickly. Sam is always there to greet you with a smile.

I wanted to take a drive through the snow, and remembered that there was a Thai drive thru place that I had wanted to try, out on Sheep Creek Road. I ordered the Drunken Noodle with pork, and asked, “can you make it spicy?” I also ordered a yummy humongous Thai iced tea. I almost got the Massaman curry, as it might be my favorite curry. Will need to come back and try it. Exceptionally kind service, made to order food. Fast forward to me becoming more and more obsessed with the flavors, each and every bite. Big thick pieces of meat, grilled veggies cooked to perfection, yummy huge noodles and then the flavors! Oh wow! I am so looking forward to returning! It was the best drunken noodles I have had in Fairbanks. Fantastico!

Tried for the first time due to all the recommendations. This was not good. I did not get what I ordered. Not sure if they also own a Taco Bell but they used the wrapper.

My expectations might have been too high because so many people have talked it up so much, but the noodles were definitely over cooked. It's ok and if someone asked me to get food here with them I wouldn't say no, but I'm not going to choose this place again myself.
Great food at a great price. Sam's Thai food never disappoints, and I love that I don't have to drive all the way to town to get it!

Had the yellow chicken curry, it was very runny but had good flavor. Was given a very large portion of rice too.

Wanted to try somewhere new for my birthday and saw that this place had a lot of 5 star reviews. So, even though it's across town for me I figured it would be worth it to try somewhere new.I called ahead to give my order, when we got there our order seemed to have been lost or something. Not a huge deal, I wasn't in a hurry. It wasn't a long wait before we got our food.We got chicken Pad Thai and chicken fried rice with an order of egg rolls. The Pad Thai was solid, not my favorite, be still good. The fried rice was lacking and left me resorting to adding some condiments of my own when we got home. But those egg rolls! You get an egg roll with each entrée (which I didn't realize when ordering since this isn't a usual addition when ordering from huts). The egg rolls were yummy and the sweet sauce that comes with is delicious. I was very glad we had extras.I'm sure I'll go back and try some other entrées, if nothing else but to get those egg rolls.
