PaulDoestuff: As a Thai person, I can say that this restaurant is great. First of all the overall atmosphere and view are magnificent. The restaurant is set up in an amazing location. The service was top notch. The owner and staff were very nice . They took so many pictures for us lol. The food was so good. The Japanese roll was fantastic and the Thai food was amazing. It was very authentic and extremely similar to amazing restaurants in Thailand. The overall experience was exceptional. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Andreas N: Good food with great views and even greater service. The food is tasty and the portions as you can see big enough. My main dish was too spicy (even though my Tom Yum – supposedly with the same spiciness level in the menu – was ok π€·ββοΈ) but the waiters offered multiple times to take it back and bring me another one. I didn’t change it because I was already full, but they brought me some complimentary milk tea to make it better. In general the service there was so cool and polite and tried to do their best to satisfy us. Respect. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person AED 100β150

My friend & I had the Thai favorites: Green Curry Thai with rice served from banana leaf basket which made it more fragrant, Tom Yum soup and the water chestnut desert in coconut milk which is just heaven!

Happy Space: The BEST Thai restaurant I have been to in Abu Dhabi. The food is authentic Thai and is fantastic. The place is small but with good decor. Service is fast and server friendly,. The only negative thing to add is that one of the dishes (Phat King Chicken) I ordered came with too much garlic. They add sliced garlic in the dish and I found it a bit too much (see the picture….this only shows about half of what I removed). Otherwise the dish was great. The green curry was out of this world. A definite must try.

Service is great as well, they are so accommodating . Price – Not expensive I Highly recommend this place.

ANOOP ABRAHAM: I would highly recommend San Thai restaurant for the authentic dishes they serve. Its a cozy neat restaurant with limited searing reminding you of a typical dining in any Thai town. All the food tasted excellent and very authentic, prepared by their Thai chef and her crew. Remember to top your dinner with an amazing Mango sticky rice dessert π₯

kimieswit16: the place is absolutely cute! + its very easy to find because of its pink exterior πΈ their boba is absolutely worth what youβre paying! itβs affordable, their tea is brewed fresh, and their pearls are well cooked which makes them soft and chewy. they have alot of unique flavors compared to other boba shops + they have 4 diff sizes. i would recommend the red thai tea with cream cheese and the fire brown sugar boba cream cheese (a lil tip, maybe ask them to not seal it with the plastic film but give u a lid instead if ur not ordering it for delivery as the cream cheese + brown sugar tends to stick to the film) iβll definitely keep coming back to try the rest of the flavors but if ur reading this review i highly recommend you go too!

Saeed Almarar: I like the restaurant decoration, service was average compare with price that we are paying for. We ordered nearly everything, overall food was good but not worth the price at all. With the same price you go to the top fine dining in the country. Itβs was a nice experience but never again, they should improve the quality of food or reduce the prices list Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person AED 400β450
