Sawatdee Thai Restaurant - Minneapolis - Minneapolis, Minnesota

Delicious Thai food brought right to my hotel room! Got the appetizer platter and the pineapple curry. Only critical feedback is the curry lacked thickness and depth. I paid extra for chicken and there were only 3 pieces of meat which was disappointing.

I’ve read the reviews on this place and I’ll say this. If you’re planning on dining in, you’ll feel very alone. I’ve dined in here a couple of times and every single time, it felt like we were the only ones in there. I have a feeling most people order take out from here. I have ordered takeout more than dine in.
I will mention, out of the 10+ years I’ve been ordering take out from here, the Pad Thai is the most consistent thing on their menu (and is what they’re known for). I’ve had Pad Thai all over the world and I constantly base my reviews off of this one because IMO, this one is the best. Most restaurants that serve Pad Thai serve it with a lime and this is one of the few places that serves it with Lemon. If changes the whole flavor of the dish and I absolutely love it.

If you are scouting through dozens of reviews (because it's hard to trust wedding websites these days) trying to decide if you should have Sawatdee cater an important event, for example, a wedding, like I did when I was looking for wedding caterers, then here is your review. Go for it. 10/10. Cyndy knocked it out of the park for our wedding. The food was amazing and people were so excited to eat something besides champagne chicken. We got the 3 entree package with the china add-on and it was worth every penny. And honestly, it was very reasonable. Cyndy helped make our wedding memorable and fun. She was also our most communicative vendor. She always responded to emails. We were so impressed with everything she did for us. We couldn’t have been happier.

Appetizer for 2 had a good orange sauce. Spicy pad Thai noodles was good. Pineapple curry had almost a lemon grass taste that was refreshing. Do spice up here from level 1-5, I got a 3 and it felt more like a 2.

During my visit to Sawatdee, I opted for the Rama Thai Delight, which was quite good. The dish boasted a well-balanced combination of peanut sauce and fresh steamed spinach, making it a standout. Although I didn’t try the Sweet and Sour Chicken myself, my friend enjoyed it, and it was served with rice which seemed to complement the dish well.

However, the service was underwhelming. Our server lacked enthusiasm and didn’t offer helpful recommendations or information about the spice levels, which detracted from our experience. Also, contrary to my expectations set by another location, there were no robot servers at this Minneapolis location, which was a bit disappointing. Given this experience, if I decide to visit Sawatdee again, I would likely choose the Maple Grove location instead, which I've heard has these unique features.

Food was great & staff was really nice. There’s nice decoration but something is missing in ambiance. Might need to change bright white lights to softer yellow.
I’m laughing at tax. 12%! Wtf? (Waiter explained to me there’s a state county city and “downtown” Tax.

We stopped in around mid afternoon and Makayla made our experience here much more amazing.
There wasn’t a lot of people seated to dine in , but had a ton of takeout orders.

I ordered the Tokyo rose cocktail and my husband opted for the same , we both enjoyed how tasteful it was! I liked the fisherman’s delight but it wasn’t as spicy as I’d hope. Makayla went above and beyond to bring us extra chili and jalapeños.

10/10 from the cleanliness of the restaurant to the efficiency of the customer service to the taste of the food. Immaculate!

We ordered spring rolls, Pad Thai, and fried vegetarian spring rolls. While the spring rolls weren't to our taste, the Pad Thai and fried vegetarian spring rolls were excellent! The Pad Thai had a perfect balance of flavors, and the fried vegetarian spring rolls were crispy and flavorful. The food arrived well-packed and warm, and despite not liking one dish, we thoroughly enjoyed the rest of our meal.
