Nice Rangoons...
Jeff B.

Good Americanized Thai, with a wonderful family running the show. They've been in AH for decades, and have a strong following from the locals. If you like it spicy, they can definitely turn up the volume for ya, but flavors across the menu are just right if you don't want the heat. Good spot for a date night, with it's dark ambiance, but you've got to look past that it obviously was a Mex resto prior to their moving into it years ago, haha. Prices are standard, but consider you are probably taking tomorrow's lunch with you home... ;)

Sauce that is poured over the Happy Boat
Jennifer B.

My friend and I drove to Airway Heights to try out Sala Thai. This restaurant wasn't on our original list of places to try, but when I saw them post one of their dishes on Facebook, I immediately sent it to my friend and we both agreed we were going there next! Next happened to be last night. What we ordered was what they call "Happy Boat" with Salmon, Shrimp, and Scallops (extra shrimp for my friend and no scallops). Let me say that it was sensational and we were both very happy we were able to try it. It does come with a side of jasmine rice (not pictured). The service was great and they even offered my friend a Diet Coke to go when we were getting ready to leave. Restaurant was clean, even the restrooms. They do close fairly early though, which does make it difficult for those that like to dine later (7:30 Tuesday thru Saturday) and are closed Sundays and Mondays.

Spice menu
Evan T.

Quiet restaurant outside of downtown Spokane and the food is pretty good, definitely somewhere I'd eat again. Ordered the Yellow Curry 0 spice and although it wasn't my favorite it's still much better than many I've had. There was a particular taste I couldn't quite pin down with the curry but all the veggies and meat were cooked perfectly. Opted for no spice as the nice waiter told me they use authentic Thai chilis so 1 star will still be VERY hot (I didn't want to risk it). The spring roll was also nothing special but tasted fresh and was a nice refreshing snack. Thai iced tea was pretty normal and nothing special to it. I would go back and try other dishes though. PS if you want Yellow Curry during lunch, just ask for it since it's on the dinner menu but not the lunch menu.

Menu description
Jennifer B.

The food was excellent, but beware of the heat of level 1. I like spicy food, but it was a little too spicy for level one. It seemed a bit pricey, too.

Panang Curry, Pad Kee Mao, Yum Gai Tod

We have been here twice in two weeks and both times it was SO good. We will be back regularly. The Thai iced coffee is addictive, the yum gai tod and the panang curry were amazing. We've tried 8 different menu items so far and loved all. A 1* is a good level of spice!

Menu, Spice leve 1 is medium.
Paul K.

The food was good, the Panang Curry was AMAZING! I'm a white guy and was disappointed in their idea of the spice levels. They did nothing but confuse me. So they say, their level 1 is a medium; so stick to level one. (1) I did NOT find that to be true in ALL the meals. The Panang Curry was a perfect spice level. Sadly the Spicy Summer although a decent dish lacked flavor and little to NO spice! It did taste good with Panang Curry poured all over it! But we wanted variety. And lastly, the Siam Crispy Chicken, served in the pineapple bowl, although an amazing photo it was swimming in a sugary overly sweet sauce, something similar to an orange chicken at Panda Express. I was most disappointed especially since that's on their menu photos and it came highly recommended from someone who had eaten it before. The service was great. The male waiter who's name I have forgotten was excellent, he was prompt and patient with us, he did provide recommendations. We commonly eat Thai food elsewhere and I'm still confused why they stick to the one is medium script at this location. The ambiance is quaint. I was surprised, the outside of the location didn't blow me away and gave me some slight concern, it's also very simple inside. Not gaudy or amazingly elegant. Simple would be my best description. I would give this restaurant another chance but I would definitely ask for a 2 or possibly a 3 for my spice level in certain dishes. Again that's hard to gage because the Panang Curry was perfect spice and AMAZING!

Menu 3/6/20

Do not underestimate their spicy level. Lol i was sweating/dying because i ordered 5 star spicy old guy...... i normally order 5 star at every restaurant i go (especially in spokane) because my taste buds are probably broken. But man, i did not expect it to be this spicy. Lol i meant the food was good though and service was nice (foods do seem to come out a bit slow)... but next time i will just have to watch out my spicy level Inside is pretty big and spacious so its great for a big group!

Burnt and fishy tasting crab Rangoon.
April M.

I'm giving them 2 stars just because my sister has been there in the past and said the curry was supreme and the rice chicken soup served with our lunch special was AMAZING! But the rest of our food was definitely not. We order the crab Rangoon appetizer. It was served burnt and extremely fishy tasting. We both ordered the pad Thai. It was terrible. It was swimming in a pool of sweet and sour sauce that I'm almost sure was from a bottle. It really ruined the entire meal and something I would never recommend anyone try

The curry's are really good, prices are a little spendy so don't expect this to replace your cheap takeout.

Although I'm very sad that they are now closed on Monday-usually the day I order, the pad thai is…read moreso good!! I've tried every thai restaurant in Spokane and this is the only place I prefer to go for my pad thai. I came from Chicago so my standards are pretty high. The crab Rangoon is pretty good and my husband loves the beef fried rice from here, says it's the best around here. I highly recommend this little place!

We have ordered delivery from here several times but this was our first in-person visit. Phonthip…read moreis the name of the owner and she is very warm and welcoming. It's a small space but we loved it because we could actually visit. We ordered chicken Pad Thai, peanut sauce (just because we love her take on it), and the special curry noodles that came with a little side of fresh veggies. The Pad Thai was so delicious - best I've had in Spokane. Won't be getting it anywhere else. The curry noodles were also very good. She recommended we try them and we were not disappointed. They were in a pretty special broth. As if we needed dessert, we ordered the mango sticky rice and couldn't stop eating it. So, let's see... next time we go (which will be soon!) I'll order Pad Thai, peanut sauce and mango sticky rice! We've been spoiled with fabulous Thai food in Seattle so we are thrilled to have such a wonderful place here! One thing I would love to see on the menu is fresh spring rolls, not fried.
