Sawadee Thai Cuisine

Decided to try this place out since Simply Thai was not available on any food delivery service. As someone that was raised in a Laotian household and had the pleasure of enjoying authentic meals from various Thai restaurants throughout Connecticut, this is simply the worst experience I ever had. I try my best to support local businesses especially ones that resonate with my background, but Sawadee just missed the mark. I ordered two lunch specials, drunken noodles with tofu and red curry for me and my girlfriend. They were both priced at $10 which is what I expected to pay from past experiences. However, one would expect to receive a full portion size for that price, but this was not the case. To my surprise, I opened up the container of drunken noodles to see that only half of the container was filled. Not only did the drunken noodles fall flat, but the red curry was packaged in a 12 oz (1 pint = 16 oz) container with a half pint of white rice. I understand that lunch specials come in a slightly smaller portion as compared to a dinner size, but this is just unacceptable. The two cups of soup that came on the side of our dishes were cold, I understand that many restaurants prepare some dishes in advance, but they did not even bother to warm those up for their customers. My recommendation to any prospective diners is to avoid this restaurant. Please visit other Thai restaurants in the surrounding area (Simply Thai or Sukhothai) and I promise you will leave with a better experience than you would at Sawadee Thai Cuisine.

The crispy spicy basil duck was fantastic. The duck crispy, the sauce amazingly subtly spicy and not to salty. Best version of this dish so far.

Great and delightful food, I love the character this spot has, and the workers were very friendly. I will surely come back again.

Great flavors - can't go wrong here! Though wish the serving size for the pad see ew was larger.

This is one of my favorite spots! Delicious food, and very friendly staff. Nice ambience. I love the baby corn, yellow curry, and salmon sawadee.
