Sawasdee Authentic Thai - Love the decor! - Thai Near Me - Martinez, Georgia

Went on a lunch date and had amazing Thai. The portions are large and what i ordered was enough to feed us both, in case we wanted to share. we started with the fish cakes. Culinary exploration paid off because these were great. We expected them to be crunchy and were pleasantly surprised when they were a little like fish pancakes. I ordered the pad thai and asked for extra spice. The pad thai came out and was wonderfully hot. Service was ok. Due to the spice fire i decided to place in my food at one point my drink ran out and i had to request it be filled. Other then that they were attentive as expected. Will definitely recommend this place. read more

Service was good but food could have made better. I ordered the red curry with chicken...it did taste like curry chicken but it was too saucy! I'm not exactly a Thai food expert but at other Thai restaurants I've eaten at, this red curry had way more sauce than I expected. I also ordered the sticky rice and mango. It was not what I expected either ! The sticky rice was just one big clump with the mango on top and some sweet coconut sauce....I will not be returning to this place! read more

First off, the customer service was top notch and the decor is great. Now for the food....I was not very impressed. It wasn't bad..... but for my taste, it had very mild flavoring. I like my Thai food to be FULL of flavor and to be an authentic representation. It seemed to me that the dishes here have been flavored down to accommodate American taste buds. The Tom Kha had absolutely no hint of kaffir lime or galangal and was LOADED with onions. The Pad Kee Moa (Drunken noodles) had an extremely small amount of noodles and no heat. Drunken noodles are famous for being exhilaratingly spicy. This version, however, was totally lacking in the spice department. Now for the dessert... Mango Sticky Rice is very hard to order when mangos are not in season, so when they are, I ALWAYS order it. This dish seems like a no brainer to make but unfortunately it was a disaster. The mango was over ripe and the sticky rice had obviously been pre - prepared in the serving dish and warmed up prior to serving. Unfortunately the sticky rice was dry, hard on the bottom and was not very sweet at all. **OK now time for a general rant. I hate it when Thai restaurants say they don't serve mango sticky rice because the mangos are not in season. HELLO!?!? YOU CAN STILL SERVE IT WITH OTHER FRUITS! Strawberries are a phenomenal substitute** Overall, would I come back? Unfortunately NO. Would I recommend this restaurant? Yes, but ONLY to Americans that prefer their ethnic meals to be flavored down. read more

I appreciate the quality and consistent friendliness of the staff at this Thai restaurant. The pad Thai balances the flavor of the fish sauce well with the other components of the dish. The pad see ew is not too salty, and the fried rice with curry is spicy. They have Thai tea which is always a good reason to stop by for dinner or for lunch. The restaurant is in the sunrise grill/Carolina pottery shopping plaza, so you know parking is never a problem. Portions will not be smaller in comparison to your standard Chinese take out. Here's my thought on that. Save room for dessert. The green tea cake is so great. Imagine a semi sweet pound cake that soaked up tea and honey. It's delicious and made in house. read more

This is by far the best Thai place in Augusta! I get the Pad Thai almost every time I go, and it's literally always mind blowing. They're also super accommodating about substituting tofu for meat in their dishes, for any of the other vegetarians out there. The fresh spring rolls and fried tofu? Also incredible. Aside from that I love the restaurant itself (though we usually take it to go). It's always really clean and pretty, and the service is always fast and helpful. This probably sounds like a fake review at this point but I just really love the place. read more

Was looking for good Thai food in Augusta, and very surprised it actually exists! Sawasdee is a mouthful to say, but an unforgettable mouthful to chow down on. I had the classic chicken pad thai and was extremely satisfied with the meal. Definitely recommend a visit! read more

I went there on a lark and WOW, am I glad I did! I got the Tom Kha Kai soup which was perfect and the piew wann which was ALSO perfect. I don't know why it wasn't packed because it was DELICIOUS! I promise you. If you like Thai food, GO. Very authentic! read more

I went during non-peak hours and the food was still great. Friendly server, delicious curry. I feel like I wrote this once before but Yelp says I haven't. ...lies, it's in the tips. Even added photos :) Anyway... check them out. Very tasty. read more

Stopped there for lunch and the food was delicious, I will definitely be back with my husband. It's a small place but very very clean, looks like you Asian Grandma decorated it but again it was super clean and tidy. I had the Shrimp Pad Thai for lunch and the menu had lots of yummy sounding options. read more

This place is the epitome of just ok. Nothing special, nothing great, just a "bare-minimum effort/C- grade" kind of establishment. The only reason why I ended up here is because Thai Kitchen was closed on a Tuesday...Sawasdee did the job but next time I'm just going to wait until Wednesday. Here's why: 1. The food is ok (3/5 stars). Everything seemed mildly flavorful at best, but nothing was all that great (and by that token, nothing was all that awful). I don't know about "authentic" as their name suggests... 2. Service is also ok (3/5 stars). The older lady seemed to be the only one working and did the job of the hostess/server/busser. Considering there were a grand total of 4 other people in the restaurant, this was not as bad as it seems. However, she was not all that friendly and did a barely adequate job of keeping water glasses filled about 50% of the time (the last time she only filled my glass halfway which was really strange). 3. Value (2/5 stars). The dinner portions are on the small side for the prices they are charging (~$11-14 per dish). However, my biggest personal annoyance was the fact that they only gave you one small 3/4 cup of rice for curry dishes that easily require 3 times as much to finish...and then proceed to charge you extra for each bowl of white rice that you request (without telling you about the extra charge of course). All in all, Sawasdee is not a terribly good value for mediocre food/service. Next time, just drive the extra 5 minutes down Washington Road to Thai Kitchen for better food at a better price point with MUCH better service. read more

Food was very tasty, the service great, and pretty atmosphere I loved the decor. Am gonna bag to go back for sure! read more

Finding an authentic Thai place is always a treat. We recently moved to Augusta and am pleasantly surprised to see the plethora of food options which cater to international audience. Food here is delicious and super affordable. It would be nice if they had any outdoor seating but that does not take away from delicacy of the food. Service is impeccable. My pad Thai and my husband's drunken noodles with beef were made to perfection. I'm sure we will he making this one of our favorite spots. read more

Really great curries. Service is attentive and you won't find yourself waiting eons for your meal.

The food wasn't bad but the portion was unbelievably small. Both me and my friend lost a word to say when our plates came out. There were only few tiny pieces of meat in our dishes. I understand this was a lunch portion and Thai restaurants tend to be less generous than the rest but this was quite disappointing. The restaurant was kept clean and the waitress was friendly so I'm still giving them 4 stars. read more

I concur with the many reviewers here that say the pad Thai is very good. Often it's just too sweet; catering to the American palette. But their version is my rly balanced. And I asked for aThai hot version and wasn't disappointed. Thumbs up for the pad Thai. I'm coming back to try the red curry! read more

I stopped in for a quick lunch several weeks ago and this place was very good. The service was a little slow but that is due to the fact that only one server was working. I had the lunch portion of the pad Thai. It was very good. The flavor was spot on and the level of spiciness was perfect. The server was attentive and I asked her to rush my order because I had to be back at work for a meeting and they did just that! Definitely worth a try! read more

The wife and I decided to try this out. We walked in and was seated promptly and within a minute or so our drink order was taken. We both went through the menu, which was very diverse even though I wish there were more pictures as I am a visual person. We both ordered off the lunch menu and picked the Pad Thai (mine was pork and hers was shrimp) along with an appetizer of Satay (pork) Both lunches and appetizer came out quickly and we're a perfect portion size. I was very pleased with the flavor and promptness of service. The establishment was very inviting and quiet. We will definitely be visiting this restaurant again and informing others of our pleasure. read more

While traveling through town I had a craving for some good Thai food and I was not let down! I had the steamed spring rolls and chicken panang curry. So tasty and they will actually make your food "Thai" hot. The restaurant is clean, well lit and the service is very good. A nice relaxing dinner that hit the spot. read more

Very good Thai food, ask for their home made Sriracha, for some extra spic. Very good good, service is usually kinda slow though. Almost as if they need more waiters read more

Very authentic and nice thai food. I'm a big fan of Tomyum soup and this one hit the spot. Also ordered the chicken pad Thai which was very good. Restaurant decor is simple and clean. Nothing too fancy, but you definitely feel comfortable. Great vibe. The service was excellent. I believe it's the owner that's the main server and she handled all the tables while we were there. She gave good recommendations and was very sweet and personable. She also threw in some dessert cause it was our first time there (mango sticky rice, solid). Food was out very quickly, served warm, delicious and tastes fresh. Excellent food, service, and decor. Found a new weekly spot! read more

My husband and I were on our way home from a weekend getaway and we needed a good meal. We saw this place and hoped for the best! The drunken noodles are good--but this dish is pretty spicy. The Penang chicken curry was decent and the portions are generous. The interior is a bit kitschy but clean. Overall, not a bad spot for the end of a road trip. read more

This restaurant is Always tasty and fresh although a little expensive but can be worth it. Very efficient timing when getting food ready.

We ate here months ago when we lived in Augusta. It's not bad but not great either. You can probably find better options for Thai cuisine in Augusta. read more

Comfy place. Lived in Thailand for studies. Know the food rather well. This is a solid representation of authentic Thai. Folks there are nice and very personal. read more

I'm not Thai, but I've been to a lot of Thai restaurants in the DC Metropolitan and Vancouver, WA areas. The portions here are much smaller than a typical Thai restaurants; Thai restaurants are notorious for small portions, but this one takes the cake. Not only that, the food here is soooooo salty. This is the saltiest Thai restaurant I've ever been to. read more

Visiting Augusta and I always look for Thai food. Saw this on a yelp review and thought I would give it a try. Did it take out but I could've eaten in the restaurant. Very nice warm small restaurant with a very friendly staff. They have a beer and wine selection which I did not use of course. I ordered the red curry because it was spicier than they are to Choo Chee Curry. Honestly, two people could've eaten that portion but it was so good that I ate it all myself. They have a full menu with more than just the usual offerings at most tire restaurant. I would definitely come back here and try something different. I don't eat meat so they're tofu dishes were very tasty. They do offer fried or soft tofu as well as brown rice at an extra charge.It's an easy location and I called in my order and it was ready very quickly. Definitely try this place if you have a chance. read more

We love Thai food, but were very disappointed with this place. The nam sod was good (tangy and spicy), but the pad Thai was pretty bland and the eggs looked a bit stale or overcooked. The cashew chicken was the worst I have had (veggies and soggy cashews in a watered-down broth) and the pineapple fried rice (R-7 I think) wasn't much better (canned pineapple and stale-looking eggs). If you are looking for nam sod, I would recommend it--otherwise, I wouldn't. read more

Exceeded our expectations. Just wanted to get some Thai food and decided on this place. The interior decoration of this place is pretty nice and authentic! Has a nice clean feel to it. The menu is a bit confusing. Most of it is curry. You just kinda have to go with your gut feeling and hope you picked out something nice! We got an order of Satay (chicken sticks), chicken fried rice and an orange like curry. The chicken sticks were pretty good, the chicken fried rice had a little too much soy sauce and the chicken had a bit of the pan taste to it. The orange curry was good when eaten with the rice provided but had a weird smell to it. There was more vegetables than meat but the bamboo shoots worked as the replacement. The restroom looks like it is a bit under construction and it's unisex with no urinal. All and all nice place to grab a bite to eat but not a for a fancy date. (must add the bill was pretty high for the little bit we ordered) read more

Superb. Quality food, fresh tasting and cooked perfectly. The menu is larger than many thai places we have been to, with fresh additions to old standards. We will be back for more superior meals and polite, happy servers. A friendly greeting always makes a meal more enjoyable read more

Best Thai in Augusta! Their yellow and green curry is on point, The menu has a lot to choose from and the service is always good.

Ordered food from Grubhub. first time trying this restaurant. The reviews were spectacular, for the Restaraunt. We received the food. We ordered off the Jasmine Rice side. There is nothing more fragrant and delicious than Jasmine rice. We ordered Two orders of Kao Pad and the (5) mini eggs rolls. The food came and right away it was obviously wrong because what I was looking at was two orders of fried brown rice. oh I forgot to add we each got two slices of cucumber, oh be still my heart, that made it all better NOT! I called the restaurant they blamed Grubhub said they were partnered with Augusta to Go. So there are two places I will no longer do business with Sawasdee(even their futile attempt of fried brown rice was not hound worthy) and Grub Hub. We tip generously and we become great customers for restaurants looking to keep their clientele. It's MASTERS week in Augusta if I was a visitor I would be leaving with a bad taste in my mouth and feeling robbed. read more

Order was canceled without notice cause of post 30 minute pickup, a customer service misstep. Owner replied acknowledging that poor experience and also suggestions of preventing that occurrence in the future. Thanks, but I'm gonna just stick with my usual eating haunts. read more

Enjoyed a nice lunch with my daughter. Our lunches were delicious! The service was excellent-very attentive. Daughter recommends the lunch Pad Thai read more

I really love this restaurant, and order food at least twice a month when I don't feel like cooking. However, the last few times I have gotten food, in the course of a couple months, I've been pretty upset. I usually order mild for my spice level because I can no longer tolerate spicy dishes like I used to, and for the last three times the spice heat has been so high that I haven't been able to finish my meal. Today, I ordered the Pad Thai mild and one bite burned my mouth so bad. I won't be able to eat any more of it. My boyfriend, who likes the highest spice level even says there's a little kick to it. It hasn't been like this before so I'm not sure what changes have been made. For those who have a hard time with heat, just tell them not to add any at all. read more

Visited Augusta, GA and was craving for some Thai cuisine. I would rate this place as average. I ordered Penang and Thai Basil chicken rice and they were salty. Not that I wish it was bland, but a little too much sodium for my taste buds. read more
