Loved the sweet rice with coconut pudding. Thai fried rice was great. Fried tofu sauce was too good. Will visit again.

We had a wonderful experience at Saen Thai Cuisine. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming, and the overall environment was clean and beautifully set.

The food was absolutely delicious—we tried the tom yum soup, vegetable dumplings, and the house special fried rice, and each dish was full of flavor and freshly prepared.

What truly stood out, though, was the exceptional service. The owner personally came to our table to check if everything was okay, which added a very personal touch. Even more impressive, after we had left, they came outside to return a bag we had accidentally left behind. That level of care and attention is rare and genuinely appreciated.

Overall, a fantastic dining experience. Great food, great ambiance, and outstanding service. We’ll definitely be coming back!

This place for the longest time did not have sit down eat in service because of covid but now that they are letting you go in it is a fantastic experience. It's a husband wife team and he loves the hot peppers and she makes all the food.

Delicious food at a restaurant owned by a lovely couple that’s been in the business for 35 years. It’s an intimate restaurant that has repeat customers. After my tasty vegetable panang, fried rice, and vegetable curry puff, I got to speak with the husband owner who told me his wife is the cook and friend is the server. Would definitely revisit.

What a wonderful find. We are in the process of buying property in this area and thought we'd try Saen.

To be honest, we were not expecting much. Wow, we're we wrong.

The food is fantastic, spiced just right.

They were very busy but the single man serving kept up with everyone perfectly.

The Thai wood carvings around the room are beautiful.

We will definitely be going back and highly recommend this resturant.

Came here with my family a couple weeks ago after not visiting this spot for years. The food was so good we decided to come back again tonight and as usual, they didn’t disappoint. Everything from the starters to desert were amazing. Our server was super friendly and willing to answer all our questions. I will make this a regular spot moving forward

Everything was EXCELLENT!!! Dining room was almost full on a Tuesday night and it's not hard to tell why!! The food was amazing and the service was so attentive. They are doing family owned restaurant the way it should be done. I can't say enough good things about this place! Definitely worth the 20 min drive, should have done it sooner!
