When you walk in, they'll ask how many and send you right to a table where you'll be greeted with waterd menus. They have a huge assortment of noodles with all sorts of mixins and spice levels available. A long list of dumplings and apps too. Everything came out so fast even with a packed dining room. The staff checks in enough, but once you have your food, you pretty much on your own. If you don't finish you giant bowl of noodles, they'll package it up perfectly so there aren't any spills on your way home.

Not a lot of attention given to our table by the only person in the building. But once we ordered, our food was pretty quick to the table. Good sized portions. Unfortunately not as much flavor as I would have hoped given the price tag on my meal. I had the Thai Basil with crispy pork belly, and, while it filled up, it wasn't quite as spiced as Thai food that I've had in the past. Things are a little dim and ad hoc in the dining area. We enjoyed our meal and our conversation, and came away satisfied, but I'd probably only come back again to have this lunch special that I'm reading about in other comments. Dinner is not quite worth the squeeze IMO.

This University City location is fine! I still think the OG Chinatown location is the best, but…read morethis one definitely has its own perks. The menu is mostly the same, so you know what you're getting. I actually came here for the University City Dine With Us deal, and honestly, 3 courses for $20 is a great deal, especially because they still give you those VERY generous Sang Kee portions. You definitely won't leave hungry. The University City location is newer and has a lot more seating, unless you're comparing it to the second floor of the Chinatown location. It's also nicely decorated and feels a little more polished and modern while still keeping that casual noodle house feel. The staff here were fine, and the food came out really quickly. Everything was good, but I couldn't help feeling like the flavors were a little more toned down and "white person friendly" compared to the Chinatown location. It just didn't have quite the same depth or punch that I remember from the OG. That said, it could totally be because I was ordering from the deal menu or maybe I just caught them on an off day, so I'm not going to hold that too strongly against them. One thing I really appreciated was the staff being so kind when my friend got stuck in the thunderstorm. I was waiting for her while it was absolutely POURING outside, and one of the ladies let me stay inside without making me feel like I needed to leave or hurry up. That was genuinely appreciated. Overall, a very solid location. If Chinatown feels too far, I'd absolutely come here instead. The food is still good, the portions are generous, the space is nicer and newer, and the prices are reasonable. I just think the OG still has that extra something.

We had the ginger and scallion dish and was not our favorite, as the chicken had a unique consistency and was quite limp. Overall, good service and a relaxing ambiance in a bustling city.

We ordered 5 dishes among the 4 of us for a family style dinner. Here's what we got: Dry style crispy fish (IT IS GF!) 3 cup chicken Dan Dan noodles Garlic eggplant Chili dumplings All of them were incredibly flavorful and delicious. The dry style fish is the best I've had everywhere. Don't sleep on eating the aromatics they stir fry the fish in--the celery and onions in it are INCREDIBLY TASTY. The 3 cup chicken was crispy (it is breaded and fried to soak up more flavor), the noodles were bouncy and delicious. People were dipping their other food items into the sauces of the 3 cup and noodles all night. The eggplant was very creamy, with crispy edges and flavorful, but it was average compared to other eggplant I've had, which is always still good! And finally, the dumplings were probably the weakest dish. There is little meat to dumplings skin ratio. The meat is flavorful, but not juicy and tender. The chili sauce in it is incredible. All in all, a great meal with great people. The music they play in house is fun and early to mid 2000s. Great for a crowd.

Decent take-out order. 2 roll lunch special and the "fried squid"…read more When I think of a fried squid dish from an Asian restaurant, I think of salt-baked squid or a salt and pepper squid situation.

I read some prior reviews saying the vegetarian options were not that clear, but apparently they've responded because the menu did have standard marking for this and other concerns. Another thing I read in the reviews was small portion sizes, but I ordered an appetizer and an entrée expecting it wouldn't be that much, but even having skipped lunch, I was overstuffed. I was pleased that they offered satay skewers with tofu. They came with a delicious curry sauce and some fried bread puffs and vegetable accompaniments for an impressive appetizer dish overall. For a main course, I kept it classic with a drunken noodle dish. I took 4/5 spicy, and that was plenty enough to clear my sinuses; it's more of a Thai hot than an American hot and I would not get the 5/5 unless you are serious. Having said that, it delivered abundant flavor, softly textured noodles, and some needed Thai basil leaves to complete the contrast. I enjoyed their rendition of Thai tea which was not overly sweet, but I wished I'd saved more of it to wash down the entrée. While most of the service I received at the bar was in hand signals due to the ambient noise level, I was glad someone caught on that I needed a water. They had basketball playing (being projected on the wall in some spots) and it was a bustling atmosphere. The snazzy bathroom had a bidet, among other things. I paid a fair amount for a meal, but nothing crazy for the downtown location, the food itself, and the overall experience. I could easily have grabbed some free food at an event I was registered for or eaten elsewhere, but there was no point at which I had any second thoughts about selecting this establishment.

We actually had a reservation…read morebut ended up getting seated at least 45 minutes after our reservation time because of how busy it was which was a bit annoying. We had to consistently ask staff when we would be seated and they never gave us an estimated time frame, which resulted in us awkwardly hanging out by the entrance until a table was ready. Our waitress seemed rather annoyed every time she visited our table (which was not very often). The food was solid, although I wouldn't say it blew me away. I had the Ratchada duck which was good and flavorful. We shared some small plates which were also good. Drinks were okay. I think it was worth trying, but I do think this place is a little overhyped. The mediocre service is probably enough to make it not worth the hassle of waiting.
