“The food is fantastic at this little Hideaway restaurant located near CVS and planet fitness in Vons Shopping Center off El Camino. The service is great the restaurant is clean and the only thing I have to have a slight complaint about is they could use some air conditioning in this hot weather but other than that everything was fantastic.

“Best Thai Restaurant in the county. Delicious, awesome service great prices.“

“The food here is reminiscent of the flavors of the Thai food restaurants in Thai Town of LA. That’s a very good thing. Meaning that the food is cooked more Thai style, not Chinese style. Love it.�“

“I only give 4 stars to non-vegan restaurants when their vegan options are plentiful and worthy. Sabai Sabai exceeded my expectations. Their vegan protein options include not only tofu but mock duck. When I started out stating that I was vegan, the person taking the order promptly asked questions that showed that they clearly got it. And, the food was excellent. Spice level was exactly what I requested. The Pad See Ew was excellent: the mock duck was great, the dish was not overly salty or greasy. Well done! Updated from previous review on 2026-05-21“

“The most wonderful thai food we've found - hard to find such a standout in North County! Amazing flavor in every dish - we've gotten to go a couple times now and we loved the spicy eggplant, crispy tofu, pad see ew, and yellow curry. The staff is always so sweet and welcoming every time.“

“ALWAYS EXCELLENT. Been driving down from Temecula for years now for the best Thai food we’ve found south of Los Angeles! Great food, ambience, and Service. They have a perfect patio for Motley, she loves to come here and hang out with us while we dine! The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. They make you feel right at home.“

“Went in the for the 4th time in the last 2 weeks. I love the Pad Krapow. It is awesome. THE Tom Ka and spicy fried rice is great too. The only thing better is the service.

Jenny and Pat are magnificent. Jenny's English was awesome. Wayyy better than my Thai. Lol She taught me a couple words and phrases in Thai. Also she and Pat was attentive and accommodating. That's probably the reason why Ive been back so many times. :)“

“Came with my brothers to have lunch, ordered the beef salad, chicken satay, moo krob, spicy fried rice (my favorite) got it with spice level 3 (I'd recommend level 2), nice quiet music, the rice came in the shape of a heart. The thai lemon tea is a new thing but taste very refreshing. Highly recommend.“

“This place has legitimately amazing Thai and other delicious dishes. Had the Pad Thai, curry chicken and Brussels. All extremely good. The layout is outdoor picnic tables alongside other “food trucks” - Mexican, Smashed burgers, sandwich shop and a full bar.“

“The staff is vey sweet sand helpful“

“Absolutely the best Thai I have ever had!!! I recommend this wonderful restaurant!!“

“I visited for a business lunch and I was really impressed. This might be my new favorite Thai restaurant. The restaurant was clean and spacious with tasteful decor. The hostess/waitress was genuine and polite. I actually felt like she was happy to serve us. My associate ordered the Panang curry with chicken while I went for the Pad Thai with chicken- spicy level 10/10. It actually had a kick! Rarely am I challenged by heat, but the dish was flavorful, plated attractively and a fully portioned. Next time I’m in the mood for Thai food, I’ll certainly be coming back!“

“Tasty authentic Thai restaurant“

“Best Thai and Pho in San Diego across the board, plus it’s organic, seed oil free, and a total vibe? People hate on this place cause it’s always busy and maybe their service or food is a little slow. I’ve had that experience AND the food hits 9/10 times. Try to go when it’s not peak hours on the weekend. LUNCH time here is the cheat code. Last note, I love a sweet coconut forward curry and so I don’t love their curry’s as much as the noodles and PHO.“
