Yummy food and great service. Near southern Oregon University, so obviously a place well loved by students and faculty. Not in downtown Ashland, where the food is very precious and overpriced at times. read more

Sawaddee - Chicken and eggplant - Thai Near Me - Ashland, Oregon

See all

I was in the mood for Thai food and saw all the great reviews so I decided to eat at Sawaddee. This was a Monday night so it wasn't busy at all. I walked in and a staff member looked at me and continued with whatever he was doing in the kitchen area which is right to the right of where you walk in. I moved closer to the cash register and this staff member and I said "Table for 1 please". Then, he grabbed a menu and seated me. I would say the restaurant was 25% occupied. There seemed to be three staff members: One cooking, the guy who seated me, and then a lady taking orders and checking on people. I sat there and sat there watching others get seated, their orders taken, and then others receiving their food. Finally I walked up to the lady who was standing near the cash register and I said, "I've never been here so I don't know how this works so do I come up here and put in my order?". She said "Oh are you ready?". I put my order in and sat back down at my table. Shortly afterwards, my drunken noodles order came out and it was delicious. This review got two stars because the food was good. The service was terrible. I think maybe the lady checked on me once during my meal? I don't know why I got this treatment and maybe it was because I was a solo traveler but I have never been treated like this before even though I have solo traveled for years. I usually always leave a good tip too as a solo traveler but to be completely ignored was not good service. I even had to go up to the cash register to ask for my check when I saw the check being delivered to other tables. Great food but if you want the whole pleasant dining experience, skip Sawaddee and find a different Thai restaurant. read more

I keep forgetting to ask her name but one of the lady servers here always seems to be the one taking my groups order, and she is incredible! Funny, nice, and feels like an actual person talking to you in a way that feels they actually care how their food tastes! They absolutely deliver. Everything I have tried here I love. I am especially a fan of the mongolian beef, their miso soup, and the thai iced teas! The environment is a touch unorthodox as far as restaurants in america are by standard, but I really enjoy the open kitchen and large lobby space they have for events. It is very unique and feels home-like! read more

The food is always excellent and reasonably priced. We love that there is a play area for children with games and toys.

Great food and service friendly and delicious I would definitely go there again if I lived nearby

This is my go to place for Thai takeaway in Ashland! Their service is fast, friendly and very easy to put in an order. My favorite menu item is their drunken noodles and any of their curry. I have tried all the curries, and all of them are top tier. They have extra hot sauce to pick up inside so don't forget to grab it if you are wanting a little spice! read more

Food--delicious! Service--friendly, thoughtful and speedy. Ambience--attractive and quiet.

A true family affair with amazing food. We're traveling up from So Cal; final destination, Corvallis. I saved a few places in our stops along the way and am so glad I bookmarked Sawaddee. The place has a relaxed vibe and you can tell that the locals know it's the place for good Thai food as the owners greet everyone like they're family. We had the crab rangons and a couple of drinks (love those Willamette pinots). The yum yum sauce is just that. For dinner, we dove into the yellow curry with tofu and drunken noodles with chicken. The spice of the noodles was spot on and the curry brought the heat down beautifully. It's worth a stop whether you're road weary travelers or locals looking for a new spot where you're well taken care of. Thanks for this lovely meal and friendly welcome! read more

The initial greeting was rude. Guest was 2 minutes early 4:28 pm and it was not appreciated by the staff. I love Thai food and have been to many Thai Restaurants all over the US. I had high hopes after reading reviews. Food was okay. Very sweet. I ordered the Thai basil, spicy. My guest ordered the curry without eggplant. I was charged an additional $1 for my entree because I said spicy. It wasn't. The guest was charged an additional $3 to eliminate the eggplant. I will not be going back. Very underwhelmed and a bit insulted. read more

What a find. Traveling through Ashland with a bad cold and needed some good soup to fix me up. The Tom Yum here is amazing. Not too spicy and sour with lots of ginger. Perfect. Yellow chicken curry was also excellent. The owner was our Server and was super friendly. Very nice little restaurant. Can't wait to go again on the way home. Great room, food and service with good selection of adult beverages. read more

Had a quick lunch before leaving Ashland. Great Thai food plus they have Sushi! Service was very good and the owners are great. read more

I have been waiting for this place to open and now that it is I am stoked. I've been following this restaurateur for years and am so happy to see he and his wife opening their own establishment. The restaurant is clean and organized with a friendly staff. In addition to their Thai offerings, they also have a small sushi case. I tried the Drunken Noodles, Yellow Curry, Salt & Pepper Calamari and the J-Pops. Everything came out hot and tasty. My favorite on this day was the calamari. It had a great smoky pan char (not bitter) to the taste that was fantastic. In my opinion, I would consider this place perfect for lunch, but a bit too casual for a formal dinner. I wish the owners success. Truth... read more

Sawaddee - J-Pops were great with a kick! - Thai Near Me - Ashland, Oregon

Delicious food, sweet people that work there. Anyways I love it and I have to have 85 characters.

Family owned, very friendly service, wonderful food, great portions... What else can I say? It's my favorite restaurant in town!

Our fave Thai restaurant in Ashland. Always get the Basil Tofu and drunken noodle. The staff is very friendly and just have the best vibes here. Always recommend to our friends and family!! read more

Sawaddee - Basil Tofu, always my go to. It's delicious - Thai Near Me - Ashland, Oregon

Sawaddee has The Best Thai Food in the Rogue Valley. They also have amazing sushi. The food is excellent and the service is always good. (The only thing to beware is that Ashland has a small sales tax on restaurant meals.). I highly recommend this restaurant!!! read more

Authentic richly seasoned Thai food in a friendly and casual non-pretentious enviroment. Takeout service was quick and friendly. Lots of locals eating in. Prices are reasonable. This place is like so many other family run gems hidden in the back of a mall in small town America. Loved it. I can't wait to try the rest of the very interesting menu with Japanese and Indonesian flavors. read more

Ever since my daughter brought me here for lunch, I have been hooked! Most Pad Thai I have had in the valley has a sweetness to it. This does not. It's authentic Thai in every way. The owners are hands on and it is truly a family affair. Warm and welcoming. I have been back with new people numerous times now and they all loved. It is an incredible value monetarily as well, which in today's world, is a rarity. Portions can be shared or taken home for another meal. Ambiance is warm and eclectic. You will love it! Guaranteed! read more

Our daughter's food was served about 20 minutes before ours which meant she was finished before our food came....not good for a family meal. I think this was because they were preparing door dash collections. Staff were friendly. The food was average at best but the rice was really over cooked and soggy...had to leave it. Maybe for take out this might be ok, but I wouldn't recommend coming to dine in. read more

Do not sleep on Sawaddee! 10/10 Amazing food and wonderful service! I had such an incredible experience here tonight for dinner. Friendly staff of course & Very big portions and great prices for entrees and appetizers. Will be a regular here now for sure! Love it!!! read more

Sawaddee - Pad See Ew - Thai Near Me - Ashland, Oregon

Some of the dishes are ok, Mongolian beef, and Pad Thai, and the curry is good, but all of the appetizers are straight out of a food service freezer bag, like the pot stickers and wontons. The server is a woman who likes to joke around, which is fine if you are in the mood for it. read more

Pure Vegetarians ( if don't want to eat fish sauce or eggs in your food) , don't bother. They will try to accommodate you with a handful of choices. No separate category in the menu for Vegetarian dishes as such. We ended up here after a long drive and after calling them. After reaching here, they changed their version as "Sorry, we don't specialize in vegetarian food". read more

We visited Ashland as our yearly vacation when we, on a whim, decided to visit Sawaddee for lunch. We ordered: potstickers, J-pop, salmon with mango salsa, thai basil chicken, and tom kha gai. We loved everything! The chicken was tender and succulent... my personal favorite was the amount of mushrooms they put and the giant slices of fragrant galangal. Another thing that I love was their J-pop. It is fried stuffed jalapeño peppers that, if not made correctly, could come out greasy and mushy. This one was amazing! It had the crunch of jalapeño still and the slight heat! Even my daughter, who screams bloody murder at any hint of "spicy" enjoys the filling!l while I happily munched on the peppers! The salmon was also delicious, nice char on the outside and the tangy/spicy mango salsa on top of it was a nice welcome addition. My one year old daughter finished an entire dish of potstickers all by herself. Saved only the fried skins because, well, she has only 4 teeth! But she loved it, even nibbled on some salmon and mango salsa! (That's how tender the salmon was) Portions were generous, we have leftovers enough for dinner for two after everything! Plus we got a nice banana treat at the end that was so yummy! If you're going through Ashland and are looking for a Thai-fusion place, definitely give this place a try! read more

Dumplings were very good. Pad Thai a bit bland but a whole collection of hot sauces to add was available. Generous portions. Excellent service, very welcoming and appreciative staff. read more

Great Thai restaurant. Love the drunken noodles and the curries. Take out is prompt. Highly recommend.

Instead of a to-go order, we decided to eat at the restaurant. The ambiance is excellent. Service was just as outstanding as the last time. We felt so welcomed and were so well taken care of. I tried the sushi and the flavors were incredible. For lunch, the roll was just the right amount of food. Another excellent experience and this is quickly making its way up to the top of my go-to restaurants for Ashland. read more

Sawaddee - Golden Dragon Roll - Thai Near Me - Ashland, Oregon

Large portions, decent flavor, and authentic seasoning in the Thai department--can't speak for the sushi or Chinese food I'll come back for more drunken noodles or curry The inside is quaint, kinda cheesy ambiance, but the staff are diligent and helpful. Would not recommend for a nice place to eat, but great for no thrills or frills tasty eatery, or takeout! read more

I had the grilled salmon with mango salsa. It was good. A little sweet, a little tangy. Tasted fresh clean and healthy. The waitress encouraged me to get my order in before a big table that was about to get ahead of me. I appreciated that as well. read more

We went during a very busy Valentine's Day and their service was amazing as well as their food! I loved their sushi! And for as busy as they were the employees were friendly and provided wonderful service. Ambiance isn't bad either! read more

It is a lovely vibe, wonderful hostess..ok, we lived in a community where we had revered Thai food. We haven't had Thai food in three years I loved the food..loved it. The food comes slowly but it was wonderful. read more

The food is pretty good! I wouldn't say it's awesome, but it's good. The service is friendly & they give you a cold pitcher of water with a couple small slices of cucumber in the water, which is nice. My friend's order came out about 5-10 mins before mine, which was weird. She was halfway to finishing her meal before I got to start mine, so that was kind of a bummer. Other than that, they let us hang out well past closing to catch up & chat which was really cool. To be fair, there were a couple other tables doing the same thing. It was their close time between lunch & dinner. Overall, it's not somewhere I am itching to eat at again, but I would definitely go back in the future & probably try another dish. read more

This Thai spot is great! We ordered pad Thai and drunken noodles with tofu with extra spice and both dishes were delicious! Tons of flavor and the spice was perfect. Also ordered the crab Rangoon and they didn't disappoint. Highly recommend! read more

Noodle and curry dishes have all been wonderful, well seasoned and generous portions. Service is good, although place is typically quite busy. read more

You'll get great, friendly service here and super good Thai food. They've recently opened and have hit the ground running. I generally love all Thai food, so I'm not the best connossieur (sp?), but my partner has sampled Pad Thai all around the valley and LOVES how they make it here. The atmosphere is pleasant enough. It's an "open space" concept - booths with no wall separation, but it has not been too loud when I was there. read more

Ok, I was an asshole and this place deserves a great review and your business because the food is exceptionally delicious. They accidentally put the wrong order together and I lost my shit. I shouldn't have. My bad guys. Everything from the J-pops to the Pad Thai and Pad See Ew was top notch. They made up for it and I felt bad for the way I acted. It wasn't my food but it was for my wife and she hates broccoli or even the smell of it so that's why I was upset. Will see you again and dine in. Please forgive me. read more

This is hands down the best little secret in Ashland. Very clean, awesome service the owner is extremely friendly and the food... order it and you will see why I give it 5 Stars. read more

I got the pad Thai, literally sooooo amazing, so flavorful, also the ambiance and lighting here is lovely. I highly recommend this place, the service is phenomenal we got our food pretty quickly. Very clean, I will be coming back a lot. read more
