    I loved the interior design of the restaurant. It's very clean and modern. The food was quite good, not sure how authentic the pad thai was. The people at the restaurant were warm and welcoming. There are parkings nearby.

    Pad thai is a disappointment. Served with beef slices which tasted like water-boiled meat and raw soybean sprouts. Chicken satay ordered as starter was average. Assortment of fried starters also not great, probably industrial.

    O my Buddha, a chef that knows how to make fried rice in this part of the world. Nice service, great taste, pleasant atmosphere. Would be a frequent guest if we lived around here. Thanks, we enjoyed our meal.

    Nice Thai place. Not too big, with a small terrace area in the back and close to the train station. The food was really good. I took dim sum of shrimps and pad thai and both were very tasty and nicely presented. The only “but” I would put is on the price of the starters. The main course price is ok, but the starters are too expensive. The service was very good and friendly and timewise not too fast but not slow either.

    A great Thai restaurant. I really love their Tom Kha Kai soup and their curry. Nice thing is that you can also sit in their garden. I’ve been here a few times now and am never disappointed. Just try it and you will agree.

    We have been customers for 17 years. Mostly delivery. We order twice a month for over 100 euros and we tip the driver each time 10%. Today we wanted to order again, because they opened again after the corona crisis and the new owner decided they don't deliver to us anymore. I find the way they deal with loyal customer very disappointing.

    I went here twice when I was in zaventem. The food is awesome and the portions are pretty big, for me anyway. I ordered the chicken rice (Khao pad) for the first time and a curry with duck meat the next time. The curries are served with generous portions of rice. We had also ordered some starters like spring rolls. Their service was a bit slow but the quality and presentation of the food is on point. The complementary prawn crackers add a nice touch. Their alcohol selection is pretty good too.

    Good Thai food, although (like many Thai restaurants in Belgium) often milder than expected. If you want it more spicy after it has been served, you often must pay more for extra chilli. I resent this, so I just accept it if the meal is lacking the expected punch.

  • 3/5 Attila L. 10 months ago on Google
    Although polite and helpful but painfully slow service canceled any positive feelings the decent atmosphere foreshadowed and the chewy duck and lack of characteristic spicing could not regain any lost trust either. Multiple special diatary requests ignored and then finally served with extra delay shattered any remaining chance for a repeated visit.

    We finished the meals without feeling sick of them which is a veeeery big deal for our family. The seasoning was just right, and especially not too salty. We had the veggie yellow Thai curry, shrimp Pad Thai, and chicken Kao Pad. I had the cranberry gin cocktail which was also very well-made. Service was really quick as well, and the hostesses were friendly and chatty. Highly recommend this place.

    We love Thai food from here. For years we have been eating and are mostly delighted. Please continue the hard work and not drop the quality.

    Yesterday I was here again and I found food extremely good: spring rolls well fried and Thai curry very nice. Not cheap but online with Belgium

    Very good restaurant. It was pleasant and service is very friendly. Both English and Dutch speaking team, they were very kind to us. Food was very good and tasty.

  • 5/5 Ranganathan V. 1 year ago on Google
    The food and the service was fantastic. We asked for the food to be made spicy and it was done perfectly - not too much not less showing the exactly know what are doing. Very good experience overall.

  • 5/5 Herjan V. 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely, tasty, spicy Thai Food. We had the 20 piece sharing platter which was delicious, followed by a Thai green beef curry (advertised as spicy on the menu) which was a lovely taste and heat. Service very friendly and the restaurant itself is very beautiful, with nice comfy seating, plenty of space between tables and atmospheric lighting and clean toilet facilities. Definitely going to pay this another visit.

    We went to Sawadee yesterday. It was a repeat visit for me but a first for my colleague. The welcome was warm and genuine. More than enough choice and everything we ordered was delicious. Even though we were warned that things could take a bit longer, the dishes came swiftly. Price/value is simply top! We’ll be back😉!

    Super friendly service and very good thai food.

  • 5/5 Sascha Z. 1 year ago on Google
    Beautifully decorated Thai restaurant. The staff speaks English and they also have English menus which made things much easier. The homemade ice tea was refreshing and the Pad Thai was really tasty. Try sitting in the garden, it's lovely.

  • 1/5 Gavin O. 2 years ago on Google
    I walked in today's lunchtime for a takeaway, the lady in charge of the service was half friendly with me, she was very harsh talking with an unfriendly body language. I still went through my order of a pad Thai with chicken . 17€ !!! Never paid so much for a simple noodle dish as a takeaway 😕. Still, I paid and didn't want to complain. But while waiting, I noticed that everyone that came in and was speaking flemish, she was so kind and came to conclusion that since I was speaking French, she gave me a special treat 🤔🤔 What ever she had, she was the most unpleasant service I encountered, I will never go back there. So rude and mean full!! Food was OK but it's always nicer when the service matches the food quality.

    I had Green curry and veggie spring rolls. The green curry was incredible and the spring rolls were really fresh and very nice too. Wish they were open today as I would 100% go back

  • 5/5 McLoughlin A. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing service, super friendly. The food was absolutely delicious 👌! I recommend any Thai food-lover to visit this lovely restaurant. The building itself looks really nice to, it has a cosy atmosphere.

    Not a really hip place, but I ordered a red curry and it was delicious. Good service.

  • 4/5 Stanley P. 6 years ago on Google
    A popular Thai restaurant with plenty vegan options! Their soups were amazing, must have! Staff were courteous.

  • 3/5 Susana Manrique de L. 5 years ago on Google
    Nothing extraordinary, nothing remarkable. Normal thai dishes. Eat fast or it will get cold right away. It's funny because the food arrived very quickly after we ordered. So I don't know how much "fresh" food it was.

  • 5/5 Tristan V. 2 years ago on Google
    Very friendly staff, and the food was also great!
