My wife and I along with my niece went for our first time tonight. Excellent service right from the start, promptly seated us, waters and menus. Very friendly. Our food came and was unreal. Fresh ingredients with lots of flavour. Gentleman that took care of us had a good sense of humour, lots of laughs. Will be back soon.

Disappointed really. I ordered soup and salad rolls and specifically asked for a spoon and chopsticks to eat my dinner because I’m at a hotel. No cutlery no napkins. Very discouraging. Won’t waste my time ordering again.

★★★

Love the decor but the food is pretty average. Price was good though (~60 for appy and two dinner meals, including tip) so that might convince me to come back. The service was a bit slow because they only have one server working. He was doing his absolute best but definitely need a second helper to reduce the wait times for food, drinks, bill.. etc.

SO AMAZINGLY GOOD. I'm so sad this is the only location, as we aren't from here, but I'd make the trip if I were near Medicine Hat! Thank you SO MUCH for the amazing lunch!

4 of us enjoyed a wonderful Monday lunch. Our server Sigh brought us all waters to begin. Appetizers included Mango Salad, Thai Chicken Dumpling, Creamy Crab Puff & Salad Roll. We shared 2 Deluxe Rice Vermicelli Bowls with Spring Roll & Shrimp. 1 added Grilled Chicken & the other Beef. Very tasty & service was impressive. We shall return should the opportunity present itself.

I had the mango salad and Thai lettuce wrap and loved them both. I did give up on trying to wrap the food and mixed it all together like a vermicelli bowl instead, as the lettuce was all shapes and sizes. Great service. Clean bathrooms as well. Beautiful interior.

Wanted something different to eat on a night out and decided on some Thai food. Was told about Sabai from a co-worker and I must say it was a good decision. The food here was fresh, extremely tasty and portions were enough to satisfy. I believe if you try this establishment out, you won't leave disappointed.

I have eaten here a few times. Food is generally good, but portion sizes are quite small. If you are a big eater or really hungry you will likely not be satisfied. For a light meal you will be OK.

While visiting Medicine Hat recently, we decided to try Sabai as it had a good rating on Google. The owner welcomed us with the biggest smile and was very friendly. We ordered 4 appies and 2 main dishes. The mango salad was fresh and delicious and the salad rolls were very good. The chicken dumplings were good but over cooked. The crab puffs were the big disappointment. They were over fried with very little filling. What was in the filling was mostly cream cheese. The 2 main dishes were very disappointing as well. We had lemon grass chicken and seafood pad praram. The pad praram was a bowl of sad seafood and overcooked vegetables in a soupy broth. I expected so much more from a Thai chef. The lemon grass chicken was a similar version with soggy vegetables and little flavor. So disappointing! But the Vietnamese coffees were excellent! We were in and out in less than an hour.

For a restaurant that advertises itself as specializing in Thai cuisine it has sorely missed the mark. Where is the Thai flavour profile of fresh basil, lemongrass and lime? All three dishes we ordered were bland and reminded us of uninspired Chinese food instead of vibrant Thai. Our coconut chicken was dry and tough and the ginger beef was extremely salty. We had to request Chili sauce to add any semblance of heat. If you want true Thai food you should look elsewhere. So disappointing!

Hands down the best Thai food I have ever had, My mom and I have went there for years. Shes had everything on the menu and I always have the Chow Mein and Spring Rolls sometimes the Shrimp Wonton Soup if its cold out lol. Never been disappointed with the food always hot and FRESH! We always leave with full stomachs. The environment is very cozy and the family that runs the business are HANDS DOWN the most nicest genuine people I know as well as their employees. This restaurant is honestly my favorite place to go in Medicine Hat so if youre thinking about trying something new and unique you should definitely try Sabai.

This was our first time and the food was as promised sublime. Sy, the owner , was known by most customers was a gracious host. We just moved here and are only 3 blocks from the restaurant. We are in trouble. Again probably the best Thai food we have had in a while. Vegetarian options: Enough choices for vegetarian dinners. From lemongrass tofu to buddha curry vegetable dishes

Sabai plate. Disgusting. Tempura without panko, everything deep fried and grey looking and tasteless, sweet potato burnt with rotten spots and when I complained I was told that was normal. Not in my world. And there were no crab cakes. Just a greasy cheese filled triangle that might have had a couple of flakes in it. Never again will I go there.

This is my favorite food place in town. The curries and stirfry are absolutely sublime. I would eat here every day if i could afford it. The staff and owners are very pleasant and helpful. They have options to suit your dietary needs, including veganism (the tofu is awesome!) Would recommend the lemongrass stirfry.
