We were looking for something different and found Sara Thai online. Chicken Pho, curry fried rice, and shrimp drunken noodles to go. Everything was excellent and wife said they were very pleasant inside. Thank you read more

First time here, started with a huge Sapporo beer. For apps we got the dumplings and chicken satay with peanut sauce. Sauce was next level, chicken perfectly cooked. My main course was the drunken noodle special, medium level heat. Might be my new favorite food, spice was roughly sriracha-level. As I write this the mouth pain has mostly subsided. Super flavorful, delicious. Can't wait to come back again. read more

Sara Thai Restaurant - Delicious chicken satay and drunken noodle - Thai Near Me - Dover, New Hampshire

This place is a hidden gem! I have lived just up the road for years and hadn't tried it until I met the owners! We promised to come in, and I am so glad we did. Clean and well decorated inside, and we have loved everything we have ordered so far! read more

We were pleased with our food. My husband had the chicken Pad Thai which was excellent. My shrimp with broccoli was pretty good as well. We are vacationing from out of state, so won't be back, but we do recommend this place. We did take away so I can't comment on the service. However, our food was ready quickly. read more

My fav Thai spot, always consistent with the flavors and great customer service. I judge a Thai restaurant by their pad Thai and Sara Thai does it right, just how I like it: wet, flavorful and spicy! Also, highly recommend the lychee martini - must have! read more

In New Hampshire, Sara Thai is indeed as good as it gets. You aren't going to find a more delicious Drunken Noodle anywhere, and their curries are well portioned and flavorful. They'll customize the spice for you if you like to kick it up a notch, and even their spiciest offerings don't sacrifice flavor. They also cook the food quickly enough that if you're ordering takeout, it'll probably be done by the time you get in your car to drive there. Don't take your time if they tell you it's going to be ready in five minutes: these guys mean business. And it's worth every cent! read more

Went here with my parents on St. Patricks Day, we were the only people in the smallish restaurant. The man who seated us (he may have been the owner) was very pleasant and asked why we weren't out having corned beef and cabbage. I got chicken wings for an app, my folks got the fresh spring rolls. Both were excellent, the chicken was super moist and crispy. When my mom tried to eat the rolls with the metal chopsticks she brought, the owner good-naturedly teased her saying that Asians only use chopsticks for noodles. My parents both enjoyed their mains, I got my usual Choo-chee Duck extra spicy. When I told him I wanted 5 star out of 5 heat level, he made sure I knew they couldn't save it for me if it was too hot. The duck wasn't super crispy but was impossibly tender and the fresh vegetables were nice and el dente. As for the heat, I didn't think much of it at first, but by the time I was halfway through my eyes were teary and my nose was running like a faucet but I could still taste my food. Perfect! This is a wonderful little restaurant I would recommend to anyone. read more

My partner and I were in the mood for some Thai and after reading the reviews, figured we'd give Sara Thai a try. We were pleasantly surprised! Restaurant is hidden off of the main road, so keep an eye out for it (basically, take a left at the traffic light and pull into the little group of shops in the triangle lot there. We had the appetizer sampler and it was tasty. Crab Rangoon, chicken wings, egg rolls, shrimp rolls and beef and chicken satay's. All were hot, tasty and what we expected. For the entree, I had the spicy duck with brown rice and my partner had the Guy Prik King with chicken. Both dishes were delicious! Good flavor, spicy and freshly made. We respectively washed them down with Thai iced teas/coffees. Service was fast and friendly. This is the best Thai we've had so far in the Dover area. We will be back to try some more dishes! read more

Save your money for something better! With Yo's in Rochester closed for remodeling we were missing our Thai fix and a friend recommended Sara Thai. I checked the reviews, and we gave it a shot for takeaway. That was a good choice because the restaurant is dark, not that clean and smells like old frying oil. No atmosphere and not appetizing. I had called ahead and the food was coming out of the kitchen as I walked in. I completed my transaction on an awkward dark corner of a small bar area, no service area. As I drove the 4 miles home I thought that they could probably double their volume if they would deliver even in a short radius. We opened our packages with high expectations. We ordered the appetizer combo, everything was over fried, dry and without flavor. Really bad, and the chicken wings were just terrible. The choo-chee duck had a good spice level but was not crispy, a small portion and not much duck. The pad prik king with scallops was also spiced appropriately, but only 4 scallops and mostly green beans and chunks of green peppers for the dinner prince! With both containers opened side by side we couldn't tell the difference. We did order the Sara Thai Fried Rice as an additional item, it cannot be subbed for a meal even for an additional fee. Only brown and white rice is available with the dinner options. The color was kind of gray but it had large pieces of shrimp, pork and onions. Hubs liked it, I went with plain. So, sorry folks. I'll have to try somewhere else and hopefully we'll have good Thai food in Rochester again soon. read more

Great Thai place! I had the pad thai and it was just as consistent with what I have had all over the New England area. They have hot Thai tea, which is not easy to find and the service was excellent. I will be back! read more

There were two overwhelming reasons why I had to go here: My friend had a hangover which could only be cured by tom yum soup, and I...hadn't had Thai food in three days, which is excessively long. Not being from NH, we had our doubts about finding legit Thai food in these parts. But upon our arrival, we noticed actual Thai people working there, along with those elephant tapestries they sell in those night markets all over Thailand. All this means we were in for something good. And something good it was. The tom yum soup hit the spot, the chicken larb gai was spiced just perfectly, but the pad prik king could have used a little extra lemongrass and basil. But I'm being overly anal. Yea there isn't much Asian food in these parts, and Sara Thai might be one of your only choices, but it's probably one of your best choices. read more

Best thai place that we have found on the Seacoast, hands down. Their pho and pad thai are amazing. You can't go wrong with any of their dishes - the meat and vegetables are cooked just right and the sauces are rich and full of flavor. Absolutely check it out if you are in the area. read more

Great Thai food and fantastic service! Every time I order from here it is consistently great no matter the item. Delicious drunken noodles!

The place itself looks terrible and I will never eat there. HOWEVER!! The food is fantastic. The drunken noodles are my favorite. Dumplings are awesome. Never had any issues with anything I've ordered - to go. :) read more

Delicious Thai food and great service. Much better than any other Thai food I've had in the Boston area.

I love padthai and thats it...even if my meal is being paid for when i go to a thai restaurant i always, well most of the time, i always give in to the padthai. so again my rating is not entirely generalizable to everything else this restaurant makes. when you come to dover nh people will say that the best place to get your padthai is at the thai cuisine restaurant, but i really kind of disagree. I have tried both places but I like sara thai restaurant more. the padthai is just right, not dry or soupy as it is at the other places i have tried, the shrimp is quite fresh and not chewy, and no you don't get just two shrimps and a few pieces of chicken. Even the color is great, the browning from the pan, the fresh green onions and the somewhat translucent noodles just makes this dish look great. It is somewhat expensive but definitely less than the other places. read more

Pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food. It is in a strange location, but they have done a good job with new signs to let people know they are there. I recommend the chicken curry! read more

Home made food , the chef AJ came out to be sure my meal was prepared correct. I am a vegan so he stir fried my veggies in veggie broth instead of oil. Servise with a smile and delicious food ! read more

Sara Thai Restaurant - Thai Near Me - Dover, New Hampshire

Great Thai food! But I am still partial to Khaophums in downtown Dover. First off, Yelp shows the location to be at the intersection of Rt108 and Gage St, but in reality it is about a half mile further up the road (away from Dover) on the left side just before the Shell gas station at the intersection of New Rochester rd (Rt 108) and old Rochester Rd. It is kinda tucked away off the main road behind another business, so just go left down that street and youll see it. Now onto food! We ordered the Fried Spring rolls and Crab Rangoons as appetizers, and the Spring rolls were especially crispy with a bit of spicy-ness that really rocked! The Crab Rangoons has a great amount of filling, and a sweet taste to them. For Entrees we had the Chicken Pad Thai and the Chicken Drunken Noodles. As other reviews have said the Drunken Noodles were awesome. The veggies were so crisp and fresh. It wasnt as spicy as I thought it would be, and next time I might tell them to kick it up a notch but that is just personal preference. The Chicken Pad Thai was good as well, but not as much flavor as I hoped for. In the end I was very happy with this place and wouldnt hesitate to go back again! read more

Absolutely incredible! Getting take out from restaurants is sometimes a gamble, but everything was hot and cooked perfectly. I highly recommend the green curry, it was full of flavor and you could tell how fresh the vegetables were. The pho and coconut soup are also a few of my other favorite dishes from here. 10/10 would recommend getting food from here to anyone. read more

Was a slow night when I went, but the service was great and efficient. The food came out fast and tasted very fresh. I had the Thai combo and it was excellent. I recommend Sara Thai :) read more

Sara Thai is one of the best Thai restaurants in the Seacoast! We hadn't been there in a while so we went a couple days ago. The service was excellent. Our server was very sweet and accomodating in light of my husbands food allergies. We were very happy to hear that most everything except for the curry dishes are gluten-free. I had the Massaman Curry with tofu, which was good. The sauce could have been a little thicker and the spicier but overall it was good. We also had the fresh spring rolls and they were excellent. read more

Great place for authentic Thai. Their curries are amazing and I switch between the red and green curry whenever I go there. Try the pho, it's will blow you away! read more

The food is consistent and fast, and waitstaff is friendly. My husband loves their duck dishes. The restaurant is always a ghost town when I pick up my orders, so it doesn't strike me as as positive dining atmosphere. We enjoy getting takeout from this place, though! read more

This one was a big let down. We eat thai food weekly and have enjoyed in while traveling around the country. Our favorite local thai is Pad Thai in Exeter but we are new to the area and trying to find our new "go to" thai in Dover. Well, this isn't it. It started with them forgetting to include peanut sauce in our takeout order after asking for extra extra and telling them we love that stuff. The tom Yum soup was not flavorful like most thai restaurants and instead was very bland. Their yellow curry was mediocre, the fresh spring rolls tasted soapy, and the crab Rangoon was average. Not impressed and wouldn't recommend or order from again. read more

The pad thai and mango curry was amazing.. Will definitely come back here! service was fast and friendly and the decor was cute

Chicken was tender and perfectly cooked. Flavor's were out of this world and to beer lovers they have a pretty decent selection on tap.

I asked our charming waitress for a recommendation (vegan dish for a chili-head) and she recommended their Yum Woon Sen as one good choice, and indeed it was. Could have been spicier (she told me later that she didn't really believe me when I asked for it Thai spicy). The fried tofu appetizer was yummy too. Haven't eaten there for years, but will again soon now I think! read more

WOW! Yea, a very very very good Thai place. The fish, with green curry sauce (Fish a la Bangkok) is steller, the coconut soup is fantastic, the pad thai is excellent, the shrimp fried rice is waaay above average, the papaya salad was awesome! Nice atmosphere, friendly folks, prices average-- some things a little high, but food is good enough you overlook it. I seriously considered giving this place the full five stars--but here is why not: The curries-- I had three, the yellow, the massaman and the mango curry-- were all very tasty. HOWEVER, in order to be perfect Thai curries need to be thick and creamy-- all three curries I ordered over a two day period were a little thin and watery. That happens when the curries are cooked quickly at a little too high of heat (believe, me I learned that at home)- still, the overall experience (and the fact that the curries are tasty!) helped me to mostly overlook that faux pas. EXCELLENT thai food. If you are in the area, it is a must have. Believe me, my wife demanded it a second time after eating there for lunch on Friday (actually ordered too much--had it for lunch dinner, and then over ordered again on Saturday--ahh, the good life!) read more

I couldn't decide between this place and Thai Cuisine, but after looking on yelp, decided to go with Sara. I was not disappointed! The place was pretty quiet for 8 pm on a Saturday, but it was great for us. It was peaceful and the service was very attentive. Started with the coconut soup. I've only had it once before and it was really sweet. Here it was less sweet and so much better. The veggies were perfectly crunchy, with that flavor of coconut enhancing their natural flavor. My boyfriend had the spicy duck, which was spicy for sure, but also delectable. The meat was juicy and tender and the sauce complimented the meat well. I had the red curry with pork. It was spicy even for my liking so if you're not a big spicy person, ask for them to modify your curry to be less spicy. I really enjoyed my curry. I love the spicy kick. The vegetables were perfect and although I've never had pork on my curry before, I really liked it. Overall, good selection of Thai dishes. There were also some specials i didn't see until I was on my way out. Ask about the specials before you order because they looked really good! read more

Wow. Home run. I got the chicken with broccoli and the pan fried dumplings. Both were delicious. The vegetables were well cooked but still crunchy and juicy. The sauce was excellent but it didn't overpower the natural tastes of the other ingredients. The dumplings were big and well stuffed. And to add a nice icing to the cake - the wait staff was very prompt and kind. read more

I got the Chicken Pad Thai. It was decent but I think Thai Cuisine in Dover is better

Very nice, low key place. Went on a Wednesday night, so there was only a couple people there. Service was very attentive, food very good. I had fried dumplings for an app and the Penang beef & chicken, which was kind of mild, imo, and I would have liked it to be spicier. It's rated 2 out of 3 stars for heat, and I thought it was a 1 star heat. They had a nice local IPA on tap, so bonus there. I would eat here again, no question. read more

This place is amazing!!! I travel a lot and eat out a lot and this place thoroughly impressed me! I'm a vegan that doesn't eat wheat but as soon as I mentioned that, my server, who was super knowledgable and friendly, pointed out over half the menu items that could be made to accommodate me :) Not only do they know how to make amazing food but their staff know their menu inside and out! It's a quite little place that packs a huge punch in the flavor department, there's something for everyone :) I had gluten free vegan pad Thai, the veggie spring rolls and veggie green curry, it was all amazing :) read more

Just tried this place for the first time and I will DEFINITELY be returning. I ordered the drunken noodles takeout, it was ready when I got there 15 minutes after calling, staff was very nice, and it is absolutely delicious! read more

Best Thai food in New Hampshire. The staff is always friendly and the food is always fresh and delicious. Try the Pad Thai for dinner or Fried Bananas for dessert! read more

This place has excellent quality food. The Pho is fantastic as well as the flat noodles. I especially love going there for lunch. I will continue to go since they are just as fast and inexpensive as they are good. read more

What a great little gem! The staff is friendly, the food is fast and yummy, and the decor is ever evolving. I can't believe how hidden away the restaurant is, stuck behind some appliance/sub shop, but once I found my way there, it pains me to stray. Some of my favorites: Fresh Spring Rolls with the ginger dipping sauce. Refreshing, crisp and light. Also the sauce comes on the side, big plus. Red Curry. Great creamy texture, a great balance of sweet and sour. I've also tried the Yellow Curry, which has more pronounced notes of sour. Pad Thai. Love it! They are very generous with the amount of large shrimp in the batch, and I never get that greasy "afterfeeling" some asian foods leave me with. (In other words the cooking is very fresh and authentic at this location). They have changed their decor around as their financials have grown, and looks nice inside, though I've never stayed long enough to eat in the sit down portion, I usually enjoy ordering take out. Can't wait to try more! read more

This is where I go for Thai food. I've tried other places locally but consistently end up back at Sara Thai. Crab rangoons are the best I've ever had. All food is reasonably priced with great portion sizes. Great for takeout. If dining in there's not a whole lot of ambiance but the place is always clean and waitstaff always attentive. read more

I had been craving Pad Thai for a week - figured I'd give this place a shot. Ordered the Pad Thai, fried rice & fried spring rolls. Pad Thai was bland, very little flavor from lack of peanut sauce - minimal chicken - just boring. Happy City (Chinese joint in somersworth makes better Pad Thai!) Fried rice was along the same line - bland but fresh, veggies were crisp and tasted good but overall flavor was lacking. Spring rolls - acceptable. Needless to say nothing here satisfied my craving - I will try the others in Dover before trying here again. Sorry guys it's sub-par. read more
