Food was bland and did not taste like much at all. Everything was served on paper plates or plastic take-out containers. Portions were large. Servers friendly. read more

This is not a Vietnamese restaurant. It's a Thai restaurant. If you are in Plattsburgh and want Vietnamese food, drive to Montreal or Burlington. Better yet, drive to Albany and eat at Van's. read more

It was a surprise to find a Thai restaurant in Plattsburgh. Guess that's because I'm a visitor here. I was more surprised to not find anyone serving or at the counter who was Asian. Not trying to stereotype, but it made me wonder what the food would be like. The restaurant itself is very informal, like an enhanced takeout. The menu is varied and a mix of Thai and Vietnamese. Frankly, I'd already decided what I wanted when I arrived. I wanted duck. They have three defined duck dishes and I selected the spicy basil duck because its a staple in any good Thai restaurant. The volume of thick sliced duck in this dish surpassed anything I had ever had in a Thai restaurant. The flavors were very well blended, the vegetables were correctly proportioned to the dish (usually over represented compared to the duck) and it was appropriately crispy but not over cooked. The only problem is that it wasn't in the least spicy which was disappointing. So I guess, in upstate NY, they dilute the spice for this population. In NYC orSan Francisco this degree of blandness would never be expected or accepted in something labeled as "spicy" on the menu. I also tried the "tiger rolls" which were supposed to contain crab but I couldn't be sure that they did because the cream cheese base to the filling was about all I tasted. The sweet sauce provided was so thin it didn't really flavor the rolls. Finally, the waiter was young, stressed with the busy restaurant, very nice but delayed in getting my beer to the table (and multiple items to the adjacent table too). Lastly, one pair of the reusable chopsticks they supplied in the can at the table were dirty. Yuck. Made me wonder about cleanliness in the kitchen. In summary, a reasonable though bland dinner with overall good flavor in a relaxed atmosphere. The menu choices might call me back to try different dishes. But dirty reusable chopsticks are a yuck factor. I'll not go back. read more

Sawatdee - Spicy Basil Duck - Vietnamese Near Me - Plattsburgh, New York

Great service and good food. Try the tropical fried rice. My wife and I are hooked on it. My only gripe us that although the menu offers many choices, it does not offer as many dishes as other Thai restaurants that we've frequented in larger cities. The dining area is also a bit small. They would definitely benefit from a larger space. All in all a great place to eat! read more

We were in town for 1 night and were looking for a restaurant. Loving asian food, we settled on this place. The food was ok but not great. A bit too salty. We had the chicken roll, which were not salty but also did not taste much. My wife had the noodle and these were extremely salty. read more

YUCK. Awful. I was so mad at myself to waste my hard earned money on such garbage food. I don't know how they can claim to put Pad Thai on the menu because it was not like anything I've ever tasted. No peanuts, not scallions, just noodles. I'm from Queens, NY and it is shameful to fool people who don't know that this is Thai Food. It is not. If you can't even make Pad Thai, then you need to close it down. Tom Yum soup was tasteless water. The spring rolls tasteless with minute tiny pieces of pork, barely knew it had meat. My entrée of Massamun Curry with beef was atrocious, the meat, if that's what they call it was disgusting. I try not to be wasteful and I got take out for lunch but ended up throwing it the garbage when I got back to work. YUCK is all I can think of when I think of this place. Feed this mess only to your family. Will never return. read more

This rating does not reflect on Sawatdee quality but all on their use of Ubereats. Previous orders have came stone cold. One could watch Ubereats drivers make combined stops in the complete opposite direction. Today Ubereats driver never made the delivery. I have never had an issue with Doordash! read more

It's the best/only "thai" food you'll get in Plattsburgh. The pad thais are more like stir fry noodles. The curry has the consistency of soup. Don't set your expectations too high! I would not consider this authentic but it is Plattsburgh! read more

Clean atmosphere, friendly and attentive staff. Generous portion sizes and food was made with fresh ingredients and full of flavor! My husband tried the Red Curry and I had the Black Bean Eggplant....delicious! Will definitely come back read more

Great vegan food! The owner is so sweet and will not only accommodate different recipes tomake them vegan, but they are all delicious!

The best Thai I've ever had. Great selection of options and accommodating for different dietary needs.

Good food. Good service. Waiter was super friendly. Red curry is very good. Big portions, plenty to take home after

Worst Thai Viet restaurant ever! It was a cold day and beef pho was what I had a taste for. I was very disappointed when I only got 4 basil leaves and 1/8 cup of bean sprouts to mix into my soup and the waiter refused to give me some more!! The beef was tough and thick unlike the usual thin sliced and tender ones I'm used to. After I had the cup of hot broth and a couple of bites of the rice noodles I left very disappointed. In addition I had to ask for the hot sauce and plum sauce to add flavor to the pho instead of being on the table like a regular pho restaurant. Maybe it's more of a Thai restaurant instead of a Vietnamese one? The poor service and so so pho made the cold weather worst! read more

See all

Food was good, nothing over the top. Service was great. I'm thinking since we came for lunch the food might have been prepped already? Maybe? It wasn't that hot. Would go back, good specials. read more

Small little unassuming place in the middle of strip malls and car dealerships. But excellent food! Had the Pho and loved it.

Best Thai food around!! We travel all over the northeast and western NY and by far the best. For a small town, this is a jewel. Fresh, nice portions and make sure to ask about some of the off menu items, some gems in there too. read more

Sawatdee is probably my favorite place to dine out to in Plattsburgh! The staff is fantastic and always friendly and the food is a good price for how much you get; it's yummy, too! read more

Very pleased. Cant believe I did not know this place was here. Apps all very good. And pho was wonderful. Simetimes I avoid ordering beef pho because the beef can be minimal and low quality but this was plentiful, good thick sliced beef, well trimmed and fresh and the best meatballs of any pho I've ever had. So satisfied. He had a chicken pinaple cashew meal. Again good portion with lots of good thick chicken and lots of flavor. We will be back every time we are in plattsburgh. read more

Great food and great service! Love Sawatdee for lunch! Good price and big portions, I bring the leftovers home for dinner.

My girlfriend introduced me to this place and I've been going ever since! I recently have been on a soup noodle kick and decided to try their Bangkok Tom Yum with the thin ramen-like noodles. The noodles and the soup were great if you dine in. However, if you order them to-go, the noodles turn into a big brick every time I've ordered since they're in a separate container from the soup. Maybe you guys should put some oil in the noodles to make them not stick together and possibly even vinegar. I LOVE the Thai Tea - whether it's to-go or dining in, it's always consistently flavored and sweetened. I also really enjoy the Combination Massamun Curry dish because it has layers of sweet and spicy flavor as well as the shrimp, chicken and beef. read more

Small and almost missed it driving by - Tom Yun Gai was just the right heat, and they were happy to spice up the Massaman Curry for me. Slightly different menu than downtown, but all the favorite Thai there. Helpful and cheery staff. read more

Awesome! You can always count on fresh ingredients here. Well worth the trip from anywhere out of town and easily my favorite in the area. I'm addicted to the pad thai. read more

Great food! All local and organic, fast service and vegetarian friendly. Large servings, plenty to take home to enjoy for the next day! Crab Rangoons are a must!! read more

YUUUMMMMM!! We snagged vegan drunken noodles, spring rolls, and pad Thai. Very tasty. Thank you for letting us know about allergy information with shrimp! :) Very much recommended, good location, friendly staff. Great local business. read more

If you have been to a lot of Vietnamese restaurants with good pho, don't order it here. It does not have the traditional flavors. But otherwise the food is good. Drunken noodles are the best thing here. I have a feeling the food is more northern style. read more

Ordered the chicken satay and it came UNDERCOOKED, ordered a side of veggies and it came in a container half full. I could have just bought some chicken in the supermarket and undercooked it myself instead of paying for this. Will NEVER come again. read more

I love this place! I try to stop by weekly. The lunch meal special is outstanding. I usually pick the avocado Rangoon with the coconut base soup. My main choice varies and it has always been flavorful, the right temperature and heat level. Thank you for offering such diversity in Plattsburgh. read more

One of my go to take out dinner options. Whether it's the drunken noodles, the tiger rolls or one of their other good dishes this place rarely disappoints. read more

I've been here a few times and got different appetizers including the massaman curry and have never been disappointed! Great service and authentic cuisine! 10/10 recommend!!!! read more

Delicious pad Thai!! Food was delicious and service was excellent! We will stop in again soon to try other dishes.

THIS PLACE IS GOLD !!! We love it here, especially for the lunch combos! The staff is super helpful and kind. The food is VERY authentic (having spent a few months traveling Thailand!) One of 2 Thai places that I've been to stateside that offer Kao Soi (a special dish only found in Northern Thailand)- definitely do Not skip this dish here. Amazingly made! The atmosphere is casual and clean. Somewhat small inside, but appropriate for this business. If you go for lunch you get an outstanding deal- soup, appetizer and entree sized portion (with multiple options!) Love love love this place! read more

I've been in plattsburgh for a few months and there were a few restaurants that the city didnt have that i was used to. I was pretty excited when I came across Sawatdee Thai on an evening drive, cause i've been craving thai food for a long time, especially pho. So i order some pho for takeout and a few other items, getting my hopes up to finally be able to eat my favorite meal, my hope completely diminished as soon as I open a container full of only broth. They had forgotten to put the noodles in with my order, the restaurant was already closed by the time I found out. Though the other stuff I ordered were pretty good. i'm willing to give it another shot. read more
