The server was one of the most passionate servers I ever saw. He was so excited to see people enjoying the food. To me, it really felt like it was the best meal I'd ever had. We got 4-5 dishes and everyone tasted everything. Every bite was like a spiritual experience haha. It's real thai cooked by a kind and passionate thai woman. Folks need to go to Randolph just for that experience. :)

Hi, I’d like to suggest updating your website to clearly state that reservations are required. We tried to dine at your restaurant yesterday but were surprised to see a sign at the entrance indicating that reservations are required and walk-ins are not accepted. It would be helpful for future guests to have that information in advance.

Tasted fine but Balance between salty,sweet,spicy, and sour was a bit off. Both the curry and papaya salad needed some sugar to cut the saltiness of the fish sauce.

The place is nestled smack dab in the middle of nowhere. But don't let the unassuming facade and location fool you. The food was made fresh, extremely flavorful, and clearly authentic. Wish I found this place sooner.

Food is awesome. I lived next to Thai town in Los Angeles for many years. I have eaten a lot of Thai food (in America). When our food came at SAAP I immediately could tell it was more authentic and regionally specific than any other Thai restaurants or food I was used to.
Really pleasantly surprised to find a gem like this in the middle of Vermont. Our family make la a point to go when ever we’re in Randolph.
Always good. Always satisfying.

Love this place. Super delish. Sometimes hit or miss but generally great. Service can be a little slow but this doesn't take from the special experience.

After living in the area for quite a few years, I'm disappointed it took us so long to try Saap. Seated promptly, and food came fast. Being able to choose a level of spice was a nice touch. Will absolutely return. Wish there was a beer/wine list available.
It was our first time here, and after hearing so many great things we were very excited to check it out for our date night. We arrived promptly at 6pm on time for our reservation. There appeared to be 1 server/host on, but the restaurant was mostly empty. The server was chatting with a man at the bar, the server saw us walk in and continued to chat for another 8 minutes with the man. The man he was chatting with indicated towards us, and at least acknowledged us, the server did not. It was off to an odd start.
After 8 minutes the server handed us menus and told us to pick any seat, so we did. There was one other couple inside the restaurant and us.
We figured out what we wanted to eat and waited for the server- who was standing behind the bar- to come back and grab our order.
And we waited, And we waited, And we waited.
At 620pm I told my husband let’s just leave, we were sitting at an empty table with just menus. My husband agreed that if we weren’t at least acknowledged by 630pm we’d get up and leave. At 625pm the server made it back to our table and grabbed our orders. Some time later he brought over water.
Now if it had been busy I wouldn’t have cared, but the restaurant wasn’t taking take-out orders, and the other couple in the restaurant had left shortly after we were seated. It honestly felt like this server was intentionally doing everything they could to avoid us. The server jovially welcomed 2 walk-in parties as they trickled in and quickly grabbed waters for them.
The server dropped off our food and never checked back in until the end when we were done eating. Honestly it just felt odd to be almost purposely ignored? when we made reservations.
My husband acknowledged that an incredible stretch of time passed where we were being ignored but just chalked it up to the server being a bit weird- and he didn’t mind because it was our date night and he was happy to fritter time away with me. He pointed out we weren’t in a rush and it was ok. My husband is a good man.
Other than the service I did like the food. It was on point and in my opinion very enjoyable.
My husband (who works in the food industry) and was most excited to try Saap was not impressed by the food. He had ordered a chicken dish that was described as having lime and other spices- but he didn’t pick up on any of the seasonings mentioned in the menu description. He was disappointed that his fried chicken was sat in a pool of liquid which made the chicken soggy. The top half of the chicken he described as beautifully crispy but he was dissatisfied with the chicken’s soggy bottom.
I did not like the service, but thought that the food was good.
My husband didn’t mind the service but was not impressed by the food.
Nothing was wildly terrible but we weren’t wowed. So it’s a solid middle rating from me.

Great food but staff is sorta offputting and unpleasant. Showed up a few minutes before closing for lunch and they wouldn’t even give me something to go. Don’t post hours you can’t keep.

SKIP IT OR MAKE A RESERVATION. According to the server “we’re a small operation and once we get to a certain number of people we don’t take anyone else”. No mention of this on the website. We heard it was great food so we drove 2 hours to get here. I mentioned that to the server and they were still not interested in helping us. Just got to Maliwan in Essex Junction, VT instead, it has great service and one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve ever been to. DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME COMING HERE.
