Excellent Thai Cuisine in the center of Langford. Upon entering, I saw a blackboard presenting their off-menu specials and decided to order from there. First, I ordered Golden Pockets and they were pork samosas on a bed of crispy rice noodles accompanied by beet & carrot salad. The presentation was excellent and the dish was scrumptious. Nam Tok Nua (Steak Salad) was absolute perfection. The steak was cooked medium-rare, juicy and tender. The vegetables in the salad were highly refreshing and I loved the crunchy crispy rice they put in. The Beef Massaman Curry was sublime. The tender beef chunks were bathed in a rich coconut curry that was super flavourful. The portions were massive for all three dishes as well. This restaurant really nailed the presentation of each dish, and I really appreciate the effort that they put in. I cannot emphasize enough that this place is amazing and I would definitely come back again.

Just ordered coconut rice and the rice is hard and almost crunchy. The prawns on the pad Thai was all mushy. Based off the last time here the rice was definitely a one off and I don't know if I would be back now. Nov 2024 First time here, I don't know if this is a one off but coconut rice is the best anywhere! Oct 2024

I recently dined at Sabhai Thai Restaurant, and I must say that my experience was rather disappointing. While the establishment has been touted as offering authentic Thai cuisine, the food fell short of my expectations. Let's start with the food itself. I found it to be merely average, lacking the distinctive flavors and spices that are characteristic of authentic Thai cuisine. I would instead describe them as average Asian dish but not something “Thai”. (and…at the first place I got the wrong dish from another customer. 😅) The roll for lunch set tasted something Chinese rather than Thai which is very weird for me…you can still call that Asian though but not Thai I’m 100% sure. The dish my friend ordered, specifically the noodles, was disappointingly salty. When she brought this concern to the attention of our waiter, we were taken aback by the response we received. The waiter's attitude was far from accommodating, responding with, "Isn't it what you asked for?" (Exact wording - I didn’t make this up) I don’t know if it’s common in Canada, but to us this kind of response was both unprofessional and discourteous for someone who asked for a tip after the meal. While I understand that everyone's taste preferences may vary, I cannot recommend Sabhai Thai Restaurant based on my experience. The lack of authentic flavors, the salty noodles, and the dismissive attitude displayed by the waiter were significant drawbacks to an otherwise ordinary dining experience. With so many other Thai restaurants in the area to choose from, I would suggest exploring other options before considering a visit to Sabhai Thai Restaurant.

Best Thai food in Canada. Their papaya salad is the best I've had in North America... even LA can't compete. Basil pork and prawn fried rice are excellent as well. The portions are double that of other places and the prices are very reasonable. However, the bamboo beef curry and their juices were lacking. I also didn't care for the garlic fried pork dish. Still the best Thai restaurant in Canada. Will visit every time I'm on Vancouver Island.

Once I tried the green curry and coconut rice at this place, I couldn't go back to other Thai restaurants in town T T. The curries were rich and aromatic, while the coconut rice was the perfect complement and the portion was incredibly generous. I highly recommend it to all Thai food enthusiasts.

AMAZING experience! Absolutely delicious and satisfied with what we ordered. The service is exceptional, and the space/decor is so lovely. Will definitely come back when in town again. Prices are reasonable too. I see that this place is highly popular for takeout as well and I get it, I would be a repeat customer weekly if I lived locally!!

Food and service very good. The layers of flavors shine through on most dishes. We had guests over for a BBQ but weather did not cooperate. Decided to order from here due to guests being from South East Asia. All but one dish amazing. The two half chickens we ordered were on the dry side. All other dishes amazing though. Will definitely return here for more.

I ordered food for pick up. Since this establishment has been opened I have only ordered Chicken Pad Thai. That being said, I know how it s suppose to taste. My first bite I knew something was amiss. It was so oily and the taste was off, blah. I had to dump all the noodles onto paper towel to soak up the excess oil. My question is do you guys have different cooks in there? I don t think I ll be ordering there again very sad. It was my favourite place to go. This is the langford location.

Go-to Thai spot in Langford! I find it really odd that they don t use the correct noodle for Pad See Ew but they have many others tasty dishes!

November 22, 2024

Very disappointed. My husband and I were looking to do a take-out order. We called we at 8:04pm (they close at 8:30pm), and were told - by a very polite and friendly staff member - that the kitchen had already closed. My husband has worked in the restaurant industry over several decades and was unimpressed that this kitchen shut down early. Their food looks good on their website, however, we will not be dining there. *update* We have since decided to give this restaurant an opportunity to redeem our first impression. We have been met with food that is hit or miss - it is either, very tasty, or lacks any flavor. Spice levels are also inconsistent, asking for medium spice sometimes results in extremely mild, other times you get more spice than expected, and if youre lucky, youll get a good balance. The portions have been good, and the staff has always been courteous and friendly. However, the food itself is their downfall, and we will likely frequent other local Thai food places over Sabhai Thai.

Having been to Thailand a few times, the food was alright. Ordered the spring rolls and Pad thai with beef. The Portions were quite large, but it was sooo much noodle. It seemed like the focus was quantity when it should have been more on quality, depth of flavour. Service was a bit awkward.

If youre looking for authentic thai food, this is not the spot, this is hybrid food. Not one dish had thai chili peppers in it. Everything was lacking in sodium, and everything was grotesquely sugary, tasted like it had corn syrup dumped on it. I wanted to like this place, but I have been to Thailand and had the real deal. Some restaurants try too hard to appeal to North Americans flavor profile, and this one is no exception. Also, the food left a very weird mouth feel for a long time after eating, almost like that feeling of eating too much pineapple, and your mouth starts to hurt, not sure what that was about. One pro is the staff and restaurant itelf were pretty nice.

If you are craving Thai then this is your place as the food was excellent and we were both hungry, taking pictures of our food was an after thought. With that said, we both had soup (chicken hot n sour soup and prawn coconut soup) and entrees (chicken pad Thai and basil seafood), everything was great. On top of all of this, wine prices are excellent nice to find a restaurant that doesn t try to gouge you on a bottle.

Generally speaking, I love the food here. It wasn t the quality, it was the heartbreak in take out service. All day I was arguing with my brother about rice. He said to buy it there and I said I would make it at my house where we were having our dinner party. He came back at me with but I like coconut rice . Last time I tried and failed to make coconut milk rice. So I begrudgingly bowed my head and agreed to add it to our 300$ order. What s another 10 bucks???? To cut the story short, after our constant banter back and forth all day, THEY FORGOT TO PUT THE RICE IN THE BAG!!!!!! It s definitely not the cost, it s the inconvenience of not having the base to put your 300$ worth of vegetables on. So our food grew cold as I pulled out the rice cooker and proceeded to make normal rice, much to the chagrin of my brother. The main problem is we were now 15 minutes from Sabhai and it only takes 20 minutes to make the rice. Needless to say our dinner event was less enjoyable and cold, now it had been made an hour previous. Because they simply forgot the rice. Check your order before leaving!!

Great food at a great price! I usually go during the lunchtime hours from 12 to 2. There are three options at the bottom of the lunch menu. I LOVE the vegetarian pad thai combo. It comes with a spring roll, a cup of their signature soup and a large portion of pad thai. I usually get medium spice, which is enough for me! Not hot enough??? Ask for their table caddy of spices. That will do the trick!

We regularly order from the Langford location and enjoy the food. The prices have gone up in the last few months which is understandable with rising food costs but I am disappointed with my order the last few times. The red curry price has increased and usually it s a share item between two people but the last few times, the quantity of chicken and vegetables has reduced by 1/3 to 1/2. I understand raising prices but I don t think that the order size should also decrease. There was barely enough ingredients in the curry for one person while the amount of sauce was the same. I hope the management reviews the portions to make sure that quality and quantity remain the same as customers are accustomed to.

Decent thai food with some quality control issues. Must try the drunken noodles and spring rolls. Unfortunately the curry is super inconsistent, sometimes its perfect, other times like today s order as pictured, they put barely any curry sauce in the dish and its just dry and flavourless. Ive spoken with the manager about this before and she was super friendly but the problem has still not been resolved in the kitchen. What is the point of the curry without the curry sauce?! I hope this issue can be resolved. 2.5/5 stars Update: 02/02/23 - Curry was much better on todays order! 4/5

I wish they could have a vegan peanut sauce on hand because its one of my favorite things, but they have prawn paste in theirs. The service was excellent and the meals came quickly. Atmosphere was very nice too. All in all, a yummy night out! Vegetarian options: Just make sure you ask for your food to be made vegan or vegetarian in case they use fish sauce or something of the sort.

The worst ever server I ve met ever. Everything was fine at the beginning. I found hair in my soup when I almost finished it, and I brought it up to the server when I got the bill, then got blamed for telling him too late. I told the server there were 2 small problems with the soup, one was the soup being too sweet and the other was there s hair in the soup. After the server checked from the kitchen, he said the chief has brown hair, and he looked at me (my hair is black). He spoke with such a rude attitude which made me feel shocked, and when I asked to talk to the manager, he sounded very angry. I said I didn t like his manner, and he said you can complain to the manager, the owner, or never come back, I don t care ! I was completely speechless. My intention was to flag the problem so that the kitchen could make some improvements in the future, I didn t ask for a discount or anything, I never intended to. However, the way he handled my situation was awful, and I was super disappointed.

Used to order the drunken noodles from here all the time. Ordered it before closing and got something resemble the menu item at all and was extremely spicy even though we asked for mild/medium. Not sure if the cooks were upset because it was half an hour that we ordered take out before they closed or what happened but wish I didnt spend my money.

Very tasty but my curry was way to sweet! My dessert was less sweet that the curryIt is pricey too. Nothing comes with the curry so you have to pay an extra 3$ for rice and 3.25$ for rice noodles. Considering the price of these en big quantities , it is deceiving that you are supposed to eat a curry with nothing . When you order a curry plate for 20 to 25$ you expect to have that... The server was also asking my group if we wanted rice or noodles with the curry as if it was coming with it. So we all thought it did. Watch the price! Nice decorations and music

Excellent Thai Restaurant, favourite so far in BC The drunken noodle, chicken panang and coconut rice were all very tasty. Thought price was reasonable at $50 for two people with a Singha beer before tip. Food : 5/5

Even the food is not too bad, the service is just at the bottom level. We d waited for an hour but they just served 2 dishes at said there are some problems with the machine. But guess what, the table that came after us, they have all the main dishes on the table. I guess they dont know how to prioritize things. We told them, and they didnt even show a good face to us. So disappointed, not gonna recommend it to any of my friends

Last night I ordered take out dinner for a work event. Super easy to place the order by phone. The online portal wouldnt work for me. The food was ready on time. The prices were very fair. But the rave is all about how yummy the food was. So good!!!! A nice medium spice, a good variety of dishes to share family style and it was easy to get a good selection for our vegetarians and dairy free folks. The consistency of the experience at this restaurant cannot be understated.

Our server helped us out over and over.......with more hot sauce, then flakes and spices. Both my husband and pastor know now to ask for the heat next time! I loved mine just as it was. Yummy!!!!!

Hands down the best Thai food I ve ever had! The restaurant was so so kind in accommodating my vegetarian family. We ordered the pad Thai, yellow curry, basil tofu stir fry and papaya salad. Every dish tasted so delicious, perfectly flavored and authentic. They were hesitant at first, worrying that the papaya salad wouldn t taste good without fish sauce but they did end up making it vegetarian for us and it was SO good. So refreshing and yummy, and so happy because it s so hard for vegetarians to get a veg papaya salad. Saving this to my google list and will definitely be back if I m in Victoria again!

Friendly service, quick service and excellent curry with quite a lot of choices. Restaurant was busy and reservations were being taken, so I m going to assume others felt the same way about the restaurant as well. Both the green curry and red curry was rich and flavourful. Both, respectively, enjoyed their right amount of heat and spice. If I was to find any fault, and it s a small one, I would say that the jasmine rice was a tad too sticky, but I could only imagine the amount of rice they have to make each day in preparation for dinner. We took home leftovers and had it the next day the portions were that large. The Siracha honey tofu bites were very very good as an appetizer as were their chicken spring rolls. For the 4 of us, each with our own entree and two shared appetizers, the total was just over $100. With the leftovers for dinner the next day the price was a good value.

Top 5 best pad Thai Ive ever had. I got mine with prawns and chicken. Only complaint would be I ask for mine to be spicy but the spices were just added on top and not mixed in. When I got back to the hotel the spice has stuck to the chicken from the moisture and made it impossible to mix as I didnt have a plate. Please mix spices into the dish

I had heard good things about this restaurant. It was hard to get a booking so we just came and we were seated within 10 mins, despite it being busy. The server(s) are, polite, nice and friendly. The food was, let me say, the best Thai food I have had so far in Canada. We would go again, it is a cozy little place beautifully decorated. The portions are good sized too.
