We swung by Satay Thai a few weeks back on a weekday evening as we were craving Thai food. Satay Thai is located close to the Parthenon off of Elliston Place. It is tucked away in a small complex that shares space with other restaurants, such as Roma Pizza and Poke Bros. Although I have driven by the area many times, I had never noticed Satay Thai prior to finding them online.When we arrived around 5:30pm, it was not too busy. The service was quick and efficient. Satay Thai is a no frills restaurant where you order at the counter and the food is brought out to you quickly on paper plates and bowls. We ordered the Satay beef skewers (comes with 4), spring rolls (comes with 2), panang curry, and drunken noodles w/ beef. The food was delicious. The skewers were tasty with a sweet peanut sauce to dip in. The panang curry had some spice that was not too overpowering for us. And the drunken noodles were cooked very well with a savory taste that left me wanting more!It's not common for us to finish all of our food, but we pushed through easily given how tasty everything was! The food was also fairly reasonably priced compared to other Thai restaurants we have been to (main dishes are approx ~15 and apps are approx ~5-10). We will be back!

Got takeout from Grubhub, food was ready when I arrived at noon. Got the pad kee mao with tofu, spring roll, spicy level 5, added baby corn and mushrooms, and asked for no bamboo. A small container of soup came with it as well, but it didn't really have any flavor. The spring roll was piping hot and delicious, I think I picked up my food right after they made it so my noodles were still hot too. Upon first bite, it was quite good - flavor was there, noodles were chewy, good ratio of vegetables and noodles. But as I ate more, the oil started seeping out and it was really gross. There was a puddle of oil at the bottom and I tipped my container sideways to get it out - there was at least a spoonful or two of it at the bottom. As I ate more, I could taste the oil covering the noodles and veggies, what a pity. The mushrooms were canned and so was the corn, while the bell pepper and zucchini was fresh; I wish the mushrooms were fresh. Well-priced too at $11.50 pre-tax pre-tip, pretty good portions, just way too much oil, eek. Also, looking at the photos, this spot only uses one-time use plates, bowls, and utensils, and I really don't like restaurants that don't take the environment into account. (I know I got takeout which is contradictory to the environment statement, but it was a Grubhub order through work so it was take it or leave it)

The definition of delicious and cheap comfort food. Their tofu pad thai is so affordable and delicious. Satay always has a long line so I recommend calling ahead and picking up your food, otherwise, it might be a while. There's not much parking or seating in this complex so to go is a popular option. The staff here is super friendly too. They always greet you and it's family owned so they start to recognize the students. Would highly recommend the Pad Thai and Drunken Noodles here.

Family run Thai food with great food for good prices. The people are extremely nice and give generous portion size. Been going here for a long time and highly recommend it if you're in the area. Also very close to Centennial park and Vanderbilt.

Came here hoping to grab a quick and convenient bite to-go, and it was truly the speediest service I have ever encountered. I'm talking faster than fast food. We waited for maybe 1-2 min after ordering to get our food. The cashier lady was super nice and willing to answer our questions about the ingredients and dishes. They do have indoor seating as well, but it's not a ton of space. Got the panang curry, pad see ew, and basil rice - all with chicken. Very delicious and in generous portion sizes, especially the pad see ew. Not the best Thai food in Nashville, but I'd argue possibly the fastest!

Satay is one of my favorite Thai food restaurants in Nashville. Besides the unwavering fact that their food, specifically the Pad Thai, is fantastic, their service is unmatched.Each time I visit, the friendly staff always seems to remember my order. Even though their restaurant is consistently packed with customers, food orders always come out fairly quickly. Thank you for bringing your excellent food and service to Nashville Satay Thai team!

Stopped in here for lunch after visits Centennial Park. It's a cute little hole in the wall that is unique decorated with pictures of last patrons across all its walls. Sat down and ordered the garlic and pepper tofu with medium spice. It came with a nice side salad with a peanut sauce dressing, white rice, and a small vegetable soup. Each bite from the soup to the salad to the tofu was delicious. The workers were wonderful and super nice. They provided great service. I am very happy to have found this spot.

Half star or less. Don't do it. Terrible. The food tasted "old"/not fresh. We indicated mild/med heat and it was burning hot. Just nasty. Here's what we ordered: Crab/Cream Cheese WonTons (tiny and fishy), Pad See Eew/beef and pineapple curry/shrimp. Not ONE item was good. I just want to spare others. Try somewhere else. We're new here in Nash from Chicago and looking for good Thai. Any recommendations would be welcome. We spent nearly 50 bucks on this food and threw most of it away.
