What our guests are saying

Duck curry is soooo yummy. I would definitely recommend. If you’re a spicy food lover, order up a 1 spicy level. The staff is very kind. This place is take-out only but they have a couple tables if you can eat your take-out food at.

My new location for Bubble tea and Smoothies. I always order Curry and rice boxes. Now they only do self-service dine in and it was ok for a quick lunch and dinner.

I continually go SaiMai, the food has never disappointed, but be aware its not going to have the sweetness a lot Americanized thai food does. The service is prompt and your food will be ready it in the time give. Its a cozy spot and really reasonably priced for the area it is in. Highly recommend.
