Welcome to Sawatdee Saint Paul! We are OPEN for dine in, take out and delivery.

Serving award-winning Thai cuisine since 1983, Sawatdee is home to Thai food, a great daily happy hour and impeccable service.

When we first opened our doors at 1983, the Sawatdee mission was simple: to take our community on an adventure full of Thai flavors and good times. Many years later, that adventure is still as exciting as ever.

Sawatdee Saint Paul was the first Sawatdee which opened in 1983. Located in lowertown, it has been referred to as & the old Sawatdee" since it closed to make way for the new. With a new location on Robert Street in downtown Saint Paul, & the old Sawatdee & is now & the new Sawatdee; offering you a full menu of authentic Thai cuisine that we are famous for plus a full bar.

Everything was excellent, service, food and atmosphere. The chicken satay was perfect and so delicious. The fresh spring rolls were excellent as well. I had beef and peppers, the beef was tender and the peppers were still crisp and tender, perfect for this dish. Everyone at our table loved their food. Our server was really wonderful and I know they are doing the job of two most of the time due to most restaurants being short staffed. I definitely recommend Sawatdee. I think they do a great job always. If you’re heading to the History Theater, it’s only a couple blocks away, easy walking distance.

I thought the fresh spring rolls had changed. The service was excellent, especially given that they were probably short staffed. The ambience is lacking.

Pre- theatre dinner. Spring rolls were good. Coconut shrimp and calamari were way over cooked. Waitresses comment was that people like different things- no apology or inquiry. Hard to get her to come back to table even for the check. Won’t be back.

I went with friends to Sawatdee for Dine Out for Life. My disappointment is that more people weren't there. We all had the lunch buffet.

Very good food and service for our table of four on a Sunday night. Our appetizers and entrees were all excellent, and the spice levels were as requested. The service was pleasant and attentive. Our downside was the restaurant seemed a little chilly.

Our waitress was very good and when I asked for her opinion on a dish she gave it honestly. It was a spicy soup and very good.

Curry was really poor quality, watery and beef was tasteless. They took off 1/2 price so we decided we’d take it home and let it marinate and see if it was better the next day…nope. Spicy noodles were salty for main flavor. Waiter was new and very nice. We won’t return.

I haven’t been to Sawatdee for a year or so, and each time I feel the good quality is going down. I had the spinach with peanut curry sauce and it was not great. The spinach was only partially cooked and tasted stringy, like eating spaghetti because it had all the long stems which were not cooked. The shrimp was ok, and the sauce really was lacking flavor. Nota lot of peanut flavor coming through, and some rather lumpy tomatoe-y sauce? Sad as I love Thai food and wish this was a solid option for more often. No one else in our party of 6 was loving their food either, so all around it was disappointing.

The hostess that seated us was not very friendly or welcoming. Our waiter was outstanding, had great suggestions and was very attentive. The food was ok. The restaurant and their restroom could use a deep clean.

We ordered a relatively basic order. But the food was done incredibly quick. We were able to be in and out in about 35 minutes because we devoured our food. Overall satisfied with service and food. Would recommend

Fantastic food. Servers are stretched, but accurate orders about as good as it gets given the times. Shame the back room is not open as that is such a nice venue for a quiet dinner. But we get it. Help is tight and there’s not a whole lot of people out eating. We seem to hit it at the busy time, and then it got quiet. Wonderful place.

Sawatdee restaurant, downtown St. Paul, is my home away from home. Delicious food, drinks...superb service. I'm in love with this place and its location. It brings a lot of life to downtown St. Paul and as far as I'm concerned is the very best place to eat in the City. Don't worry--you can get your Thai food mild, medium or hot or any variation therearound. Absolutely first class.

My daughter wanted Thai food before heading off to college and this was just what she wanted. Nothing complicated or fussy. The menu was extensive and the food tasted very fresh. It was a short walk from the hotel which also made it the perfect option. Service was friendly, fast and overall excellent.

The fisherman's delight was a disappointment from the value standpoint. This is priced at the high end for a Asian entree and consists of a cup of cooked rice, about a cup and a half of carrots, broccoli and cauliflower and about 5 medium sized shrimp, 4 or 5 pieces of squid and about 4 medium sized scallops. It was not a lot of food for the price. The sauce was good and everything was well prepared. I just feel that a $25 entree should be a bit more generous on the seafood and rice.

Service was good. Food is also good but can be better. When I think of Thai food, I think of hot, basil-like, spicy food rather than less spicy and sweet food. Too much sweet in the food I ordered and I'm not much of a sweet food person.
