Sala Thai

Came here twice with a friend and the food is so good! Service really good too and they take care. And the vibes of all the people around is really nice too.

Really local dive bar/restaurant over in Downtown Honolulu, the kind of bar where everyone knows each other. Owner/bartender is a friendly Thai lady who cooks as well. Ordered the eggrolls. Super delicious. Your basic beer brands are here, nothing too exotic. They've got some hard liquor options, too. Prices are all very reasonable. Would definitely come back to explore the menu.

Great food and service! Best Thai food in town. I always come here when I am craving Thai food. The cook is all Thai I believe.

Authentic Thai with awesome flavor... Crispy rice dish Nam khao and green curry were yummy!

Clean amazing Thai food. Pool and karaoke. Must have the NamTok (beef salad) don't go crazy the spicy level.

You wouldn't know from the outside, but the food in here is fire! Both in taste and spice level. Considering myself to have a high spice tolerance after all my years in Indonesia, but even medium here was exceptional. We had the papaya salad, Thai style ( the option is also to have it Laos style which is without the fish sauce), and it was by far the spiciest. Loved it. For our mains we got a yummy green curry chicken which was perfectly level with all the spices, and loved loved loved the kaffir lime leaf bursts of flavour. The chicken was wonderfully tender. The pad Thai pork with was flavourful, where many places it can be bland. Definitely the favourite tonight. We also got the eggplant with beef. The eggplant was perfectly cooked and creamy, but the only thing that let it down was that the beef was a little tough.

So...in full disclosure, my friend co-owns this place, but I had never been before so I thought I would go see what was happening. Small intimate sports-bar, recently renovated, that serves some authentic Thai food. Its clean and simple, not grungy, but has that cool neighborhood bar kind of feel to it. Plenty of big-screen TVs and bar seating as well as some booths. Also I saw a decent pool table...Food: since I've been to Thailand a few times, I use green curry as a measure of how authentic the Thai food will be in any place. ... I say that with the exception of ingredient availability in any location, this was as authentic as can be. Short of opening a coconut and shaving the meat, and pressing the milk, it was damn delicious and if I closed my eyes, I could have been in Thailand. So if you are looking for a low key hang at a bar with some serious grinds, go here. Side note: Gentlemen, if you are looking for a hostess, just chat with the Thai woman running the place and offer to buy her a drink... it

Our usual late night Thai food spot was not picking up their phone...and honestly I'm so happy they didn't because we found this spot on a whim and I'm not disappointed. The best most authentic Thai food on the island. The price point was good especially for the portion that we received. The owner was very nice.When we walked in, we were worried that it was a bar and the food wouldn't be great but everyone was Thai, so we had a good feeling about it. We were right! Sala Thai has new loyal customers. :)

Sala thai has the best thai food on Oahu. Their thai hot is hot with fresh peppers. Very friendly amazing staff. Hard working wonderful people.

Small portions & expensive. Tasty but what a rip off. No parking. Kinda reminded me of a hostess bar maybe that's why the food was so expensive & place isn't really clean. Pushy bartender all she wanted was tips but no service.
