Saap Lao Thai Cuisine

I was looking for somewhere good to eat and i found this place. I'm always ready for some good Thai food. I've tried Thai food in different cities. Some were good. Some, not so much. This place is in a strip mall that looks deserted. Don't let that stop you. I was seated immediately. The place was not busy on a Monday night. The young lady that greeted me at the door was really nice. I asked her for recommendations. And she was very helpful. I ordered some spicy soup. Spicy level 3. (Level 1-5). I then ordered the spicy Thai rice with chicken. Also level 3. The soup came out and it looked good. Nice color. Smelled good. First sip, boy, it was hot and spicy. I guess that's why they call it spicy soup. I got the order of rice. It also looked good. I started eating, and it was better than expected. Really good flavor. It was a lot of food. Enough for two, easy. I put a food sent into the whole meal, but I couldn't finish it all. I was here on business, so I couldn't take it with me, but I wanted to. Everything had really good flavor. I will definitely be coming back here. If you like Thai food, or if you've never had it, this is a great place to go to.

If I could give this place 0 stars, I would. There's nothing more annoying and problematic than blatantly shady business practices. I went here for dinner and ordered 2 plates of shrimp and salmon fried rice; 1 plate of spicy eggplant; 1 famous Thai sampler appetizer; 1 Thai iced tea; and 1 hot jasmine tea. If you add that up, you'll get $79.75. How much were we charged? $83.71. Yes, that's "only" $3.96 more, but it's money that was not due. When I asked the waitress about the discrepancies between the prices on the receipt vs. the menu prices, she said there was an up charge for card use. But they never asked whether I was using a card or not; I actually planned to use cash. The waitress kept apologizing and said "Ask the manager".When I spoke with the manager he refused to give me a receipt with the menu prices. You know why? Because the cash register is automatically programmed to upcharge, and folks either don't notice it or don't challenge it. He eventually did the calculation manually on his phone and came up with the same $79.75 I calculated. There's a sign near the front register that says that Amex cards are charged an extra 3%. Guess how much he charged us on top of the $79.75? 4.97% Can we say ILLEGAL?? I can't even tell you about the food...The shady business practices ruined it all. If they want or need to make more money, they need to just raise the prices. Don't advertise one price and scam people with another price--that's just not right.

The food is top notch! I recommend everything seriously!! The service Is excellent they will shake your hand and greet you as you enter. Your server will go over the menu and give you recommendations to match your palette and your food is served in a timely fashion. I feel like I've been coming here for years. Ambiance is very nice. It's clean, quiet ( that's always a good sign the foods good everyone is busy eating)

The place is clean and open, nice place for a meal. The waitress was friendly and nice. She was attentive to her tables. We ordered the Satay Chicken as appetizers. Chicken was tender, not fry ar all. The Satay sauce was more sweet and sour than satay though. I ordered the drunken noodles with beef. The dish doesn't look too appealing but it tasted good. The noodles were too soft so they were too broken up and the beef were killed three times over. My wife ordered the Pumpkin red curry with grilled chicken. The curry was good but the chicken was a little dry but still not bad at all. Portion was big and price was reasonable. I'd recommend it.

If you love yellow curry or garee curry-- this is the place. The curry had the perfect consistency, and I got a veggie version.. with lots of potatoes, and onions It was a large portion, enough for two but it was so delicious I ate it all in one seating

Still searching for curry, we tried this restaurant. It looked kind of sketchy in a strip mall behind full reflected windows, but once inside it was a normal restaurant vibe. There were people sitting at the bar on the far end who were obviously regulars really enjoying each others company. Our waitress was lovely and had a beautiful smile! She lit up the restaurant for us. We tried the curry, drunken noodles, and both Thai coffee and Thai iced tea. The food was delicious. My dining partner said it was the most authentic Thai food we've had in the entire area. Other Thai restaurants may be sort of a Thai-Chinese or Thai-Japanese mix, but this food didn't have other strong influences on its flavor. We loved it.

Really enjoy how you can customize the spice level here, including on curry dishes:Green curry w chicken: ordered with level one spice and definitely still had a kick. Good flavor and pretty presentationSweet and sour stir fry veggies with chicken: hit the spot. Fresh veggies in a good portionBoth dishes came w jasmine rice.We got wine and beer. They have a selection of reasonably priced cocktails, full bar, as well as happy hour from 3-6 on weekdays.Located in a strip mall w ample parking,

It's just so good period! Tried a few dishes here and even nibbles on my friend's plates, well nothing tasted bad. Seriously. Very consistent fresh ingredients and fanatic dishes! They are true to their spice levels. You order a "2" spice that's what you get, not a "10" when you order a "2" thank goodness someone gets this rightThe spring rolls are delicious. Vegs inside crispy Papaya salad is so fresh and flavorful Pad Thai really well done Pad se ew always perfect, good beef and noodlesSalmon and shrimp fried rice OMG SO GOOD!Thai tea excellent rich, refreshingFIVE STARS

This is by far the worse service and food, I've eaten and experienced in my life. The service was nil to nonexistent. There was an hour wait time from when we ordered till we received our food. With no one, not a soul in there. It's lunch time on a Saturday not one occupied table, we should've left at that. Ordered 1 that's ONE entree (pad Thai) and a side (beef jerky) the jerky was from a bag (I know cuz I've gotten the same exact one at a market before) placed on top of lettuce. Than the pad Thai noodles were RAW uncooked hard rice noodles. So why did it take over an hr?! Clearly they weren't cooking, since the noodles were RAW, and the beef jerky is literally just plated (ofc we expected that cuz we know they're not making jerky on the spot to order) but so again why an hr?! For close to no cooking?

I always enjoy the food here! The curries are very very good esp on a chilly day! I normality go for the yellow one
