Good food, nostalgia. We are from the St Cloud area where there was a Sawadee that closed at least two years ago. It's exactly the same menu, excellent. The restaurant itself was completely empty. The two of us were the only people there for 45 minutes. Maybe this is more of a take-out place for locals? That considered, it was exactly as expected. I almost forgot the expo robot that attempted to deliver our food. It got lost on the way, stuck in between tables. Again, we were the only people in the establishment. Why there was a robot to do half of the job the only server here did, I don't know. Silly.

Such a great place that could accommodate my large work group. The food was pretty good and the service was top notch for such a big party. I wish the spice level of 5 was hotter, but that's just a personal preference. Others in my group found 3 to be plenty hot. Ingredients felt fresh and the price was perfect for the quantities they provided. I definitely recommend checking them out!

As an Asian grown up in Asia, Don’t go to this place. This is the worst green curry I’ve ever had. No fresh vegetables except the beans, other than that there’s just a poor amount of frozen diced carrots. The so-called spice level is just the amount of chili flakes added on top of the dish and didn’t change the original spiciness in the dish.

Happyday

Saturday night with a big event in town right after Valentines Day. Should have been their top staff. So I expected a good experience. But, the server seemed bothered we were there. The food was bland and cold. My 3 spicy (medium) had no spice or flavor. My wife's shrimp was bland and cold. Sent it all back after barely touching it. Luckily, they only charged us for the appetizer, which tasted like frozen aisle egg rolls. Used to be one of my favorite Thai places. Never going back.

Rude server who complained about where we sat (when they have seat yourself) sign. The food was awful. None of the dishes we ordered tasted how other Thai restaurants make them.I highly recommend other locations or skip this company all together.

All I can say for this place is... AWESOME!!!! The food was great and had a lot of options for appetizers and main dishes. Didn't look at the soups. Service was quick. We got seated, and for 15 minutes to 20 minutes, we had our food. Appetizers came out before the main dishes right on time. There are a lot of great things to look at when you are sitting. Different pictures, statues, wood carvings, and wall fixtures.Wheelchair accessibility: I don't know if this place is wheelchair friendly, but I didn't look for it.

A Minneapolis staple, it has been around for a long time and the food is great! I love going here to dine in with friends or bring take out home.

They just keep offering the ‘summer pad thai’ and it just keeps coming out a disaster, just like the spring rolls. Clearly cheap ingredients, no thought goes into the dishes and the summer pad Thai is served in a literal LAKE of oil and sauce. I sent it back last time but just didn’t have the heart to this time. Will not be

One of my favorite Thai restaurants: chicken wings are amazing; chicken pad Thai is delicious, Rice noodle soup (level 3 spice) is incredible. Don't hold back. Try different items on the menu and enjoy!

I ordered via door dash today. The papaya salad (som tum) was horrible. Worst i’ve ever had. It had 0 flavor. I only had two bites and had to spit it out. Pad See Yew was ok but needed a lot of mods at home. I ended up adding tons of soy sauce and sriracha. Very bland food overall. Not ordering again.

Food was costly and felt bland. Didn't have the Thai spice, nor was it hot(temperature). Just one server who looked tired and overworked.

We are here before a show at the Gutherie Theater. The place was completely empty except for a few tables which was shocking to us since there was a show in 90 minutes. Now we know why.The waitress was very short and spoke over us when we addressed her. The food was very poor. The Panang red curry was greasy with no coconut milk in it. When we asked the waitress about it she pointed out a drop of coconut milk that was resting on a green bean and stated there’s the coconut milk.The stir fry was super cheap with the vegetables 80% white onion and water chestnuts with a few button mushrooms thrown in. Rice was luke warm.Will never eat there again
