The environment was beautiful. The server was nice. Food was ok nothing spectacular, we had ordered Pad Thai, curry, and soup which I cannot seem to remember. Everything was nice. I just didn't like how they added the gratuity onto the bill for a group of 4, 2 of them being kids ages 7,8.

I love this place! I've come by several times with my boyfriend, and have had delicious food every time. We recommend the crispy duck or any of the curries, especially the panang! Careful though, even the mild version has a bit of a kick to it. :) The atmosphere is always nice and clean, with a relaxed vibe. The staff is quiet, but very kind and always has good recommendations. The prices are reasonable and the portions are pretty large. Highly recommend!

I live nearby and stopped in at Sawasdee soon after it opened. The space has housed a succession of Thai restaurants that have opened and closed over the past decade. This incarnation is spacious and attractively decorated. The "booth" seating actually consists of back-to-back benches with triangle-shaped cushions separating them and serving as the back rests. It looks very smart but the cushions are loose so they slide around and provide no back support at all. You may want to sit at one of the tables with standard chairs if that sounds more comfortable to you. I was in at an off hour and the place was virtually empty. I was hungry and wanted something filling, as well as an opportunity to try the food at this new place, so I ordered the pad thai, asking for it medium hot. That's what I got -- a nice sized portion, well-seasoned and not excessively sweet, which is just the way I like it! Service was OK and friendly but not really notable. Of course, the place was quite new when I ate there and by now it should have settled down and found its groove. I'll be back -- it's nearby and reasonably priced and if my pad thai was any indication the rest of the menu is likely to be delicious and well-prepared, too.

This is a fantastic place to get Thai food in Overland Park. I have visited their location several times and have always been impressed with the care the staff takes of each customer. Very attentive and relaxed. The place is very well designed and has some quite nifty booths that I had not seen before. I am a huge fan of several dishes at Sawasdee, from their appetizer combo (which you have to try) to the Pork Gaprow and Pad Kee Maw. We have tried several other dishes as well and each time we have been pleasantly surprised by both the flavor of the dish as well as the presentation.

Very disappointing. Especially after seeing the high ratings. Mostly Hispanic cooks. Bland and oily pad see ew. Chewy and stringy beef. Crunchy and undercooked rice. Ordered mango sticky rice and got mango and crunchy rice. Satays were decent. I would go to Hot Basil Thai over this any day.

I had the Yellow curry Medium spicy, I think the best yellow curry i ever had. I became a fan of this recipe. Thanks you Sawasdee for the wonderful service.

I told my husband that we probably ordered the wrong things and he didn't agree. Either way, not a good sign at any restaurant. Craving Tom Yum Soup (which was actually the only good thing we ordered), we headed over here with a groupon in hand. Along with the soup, we ordered the Thai Chicken Noodle salad and the Ginger Stir Fry with Shrimp (our server's suggestion). The noodles in the salad were overcooked and kind of gummy and the rest of the ingredients were a bit bland. The Ginger Stir Fry just didn't have a lot of flavor to it either. We also ordered a side of Veggie Fried Rice for our kids (who wouldn't touch it) and that was probably the best entree we ordered! I'd be willing to try it again, maybe for lunch, but I don't think my husband would rush back with me.
(3)Chelsea B.
I read a bunch of other reviews before coming to try this place, and several said that their food is super spicy. With that in mind, I cautiously ordered my usual hot only to be moderately disappointed. Unless my order was made wrong, I would have to say just the opposite. My food was hardly spicy at all. Other than the spice level, the flavor was decent. Definitely not the best I've ever had. I would probably eat here again but it wouldn't be my first pick.

Another great option for Thai food around the OPKS area. Sawasdee serves up the Thai favorites you'd expect and some unusual specialties too. I found this place thanks to a Groupon and found myself returning even without the discounted to-go voucher. In each of my Thai food reviews I try to make a "curry to curry" comparison. Sawasdee doesn't disappoint. Our multiple trips here, I have sampled their panang, yellow, green, and red curries. None of these are too much different than other Thai restaurants, but they bring a great flavor and "zing" that not all other joints offer. At 11 bucks for chicken or beef, the price point is similar for similar amounts of food. One drawback here - we ordered curry to-go on three occasions here and were served three different amounts in the same plastic container. I would guess we had two - three fewer ounces the second time vs the first, and one ounce less on the third visit. I like the price point and the amount of food you receive provided it's a similar amount each time. You wouldn't want a 16 beer with only 13 ounces inside, right? We will definitely be back to Sawasdee in the future. It stacks up well against similar Thai places around the area. It's definitely in my top three Thai places around along with Sweet Siam and Pad Thai.

Let me start off by saying this: the only reason I did not give five stars is because of their phone system. We tried to get takeout early last Friday night. The phone rang, rang, and eventual went to voicemail. Weird, right? We called again. Same thing. We ended up going some where else. Ordered take out last Sunday. It was awesome. I ordered the Panang curry and veggie spring rolls. I ordered the curry, because it is always a good indicator of how good the restaurant is. I was not disappointed. I would agree with previous comments that they have some of the best and freshest curry in the area. I look forward to ordering other things on their menu.
(4)Jeremy B.
Beautiful decor, delicious food, friendly and prompt service. I enjoyed their Satay Chicken appetizer and Panang curry with steamed rice. If you're looking for Thai food, I would look no further.
(5)Jillian L.
This is my favorite Thai restaurant....hands above all others. Very nice atmosphere, superb food and service. I would recommend it to all.
(5)Grant H.
I usually get takeout from here, but stopped in for lunch. The lunch prices are cheap and the food is delicious. Hot and sour soup was on point. Phad Thai chicken is as good as anywhere in the city, and KC has some excellent choices when it comes to Thai food.
(4)Hannah F.
If you don't want to be so grosses out by food that you have to dash out please don't come here. The first time I came here I thought it was fine we were the only people in the place and the food was decent. I then got take out pad Thai that was pretty mediocre. The third time I came we all ordered our food and we're discussed to find my mom had a very long black hair in her food. Not only was there hair in the food it tasted really gross. The server we had was incredibly rude and slow and spoke so oddly It was very difficult to understand her. Save your time and go get Thai at pad Thai restaurant!
(2)Susan F.
Great experience at a tasty little Thai restaurant. Friendly service that went out of their way to point out popular favorite dishes. Meal was made to order at the spice intensity you request.

Quite delicious Thai food! My wife and I have a soft spot for Thai, having spent out honeymoon in Thailand eating some very authentic stuff in various parts of the country, and feel like we are decent judges of what's really good Thai food...and this is probably the best in JoCo. The former tenant of this location (whose name I forget) was the best, and we were truly sad to see it go. This replacement is almost as good. We went on a quiet weekday evening and it was pretty much dead. Service throughout wasn't great. Our waters were refilled, but nothing was done with a smile. Our server seemed miserable being there. Always a bummer, but the food is more important. We started with a papaya salad, hot - and it was HOT. It's always hot, of course, but this had me in tears and my wife practically unable to eat it. If you like hot food, like I do, it's a winner. It was even better two days later after sitting in my fridge, fermenting in its own spiciness. We also got a yellow curry rice with chicken, which was very delicious. Finally, we both love massaman curry, so we got an order of that (with beef, of course) - very, very good. Excellent flavor, quite close to what we've had in the muslim areas of Thailand. All of this, with water, was around $30 with tax but not tip. So, would we go back? Absolutely! Food was great. Might consider takeout due to the so-so service, but the space itself is quite nice, open, clean.

My friend and I had the Thai iced tea, crispy rolls, Phad Thai noodle and red curry. The taste was really good. Service was very friendly too!

Checkin on Facebook and you get a 10% discount! And discounts are always good. I have to say though when it comes to the food it's pretty good. Watch out though, they are a little spicier than other Thai places in the area. Meaning don't make the mistake some of my friends have made and order hot if you're not prepared for Thai hot:) Thus far their appetiZers have been pretty good, although I've only tried a few of them. I will most likely be returning here for some of my Thai cravings!! Oh also warning about their benches, the backs are pillows that are not stationary, so if you're like me and like a backrest try to get a table :)

I know this restaurant has changed hands more times than I can remember; however I'm not a big fan of this change. We were immediately greeted and seated with water; our order was not taken for close to 15 minutes. We had contemplated leaving in order to not miss our movie. The new owners changed the interior decor and made the booths out a hard wood material with only 1 small little chair pad for cushioning. It reminds me of a very modern look you would see in The Scandinavian countries. As for the food we had the mixed appetizers; no complaints there. It came with 4 very tasty dipping sauces nestled in a cute little tray. We also tried the Laab which I've also seen spelled "Larb", it was okay at best. It was very bland; I had to ask for soy sauce and use the remainder of the appetizer sauces to dress it up a bit! Ps. For some reason Thai restaurants do not like it when you ask for soy sauce.... Anyway, for dinner I had the Shrimp Pad Thai. They neglected to ask me how spicy I liked it; so I had to ask for the hot spice tray to jazz it up a bit, but still it just wasn't anything special. Just very bland. My husband had the Beef Gaprow, again he wasn't asked how spicy he liked it, and his was very mild and bland. This dish is typically loaded with basil, this one had 1 large piece. Now for the best part of our experience; our bill arrived!! It was only $46 for all of this food; that was the saving grace of the experience. We have been to the restaurant 15-20 times over the years; but likely won't be back under the new management. It wasn't horrible by any means!!! Just noticing special!

this is one of the best Thai places in the area. It even had a green coconut to drink We were also happy with the service
(5)Stephanie R.
I was excited to see another Thai restaurant open in this location in my neighborhood, and even more excited when I tried the food! I have dined in and carried out. All excellently prepared. The spice level is higher here than many other places, but that does not offend me. I do stick to ordering medium heat (and bringing tissues with me). The spring rolls and Sawasdee rolls are refreshing. The coconut milk based curries are creamy and delicious. Last night I tried the Sam Rod for the first time and was delighted by the sweet and sour taste, and they did not skimp on the meat either, always a plus in my book. The only dessert I have tried is the mango sticky rice, mostly because it is so good I can't get myself to deviate from getting it! I also love the Thai Iced Tea, but I ask for the cream to come on the side so I can customize it to my own sweetness preferences. I love that they will accommodate me this way. A very friendly place tucked away in a great location ;). Worth the trip!

A lover of all things thai, this place was a real let down given the high yelp ratings. With a picture of the king and the queen above the register I expected pride to be taken in the food. Sadly, the food was watered down, lemongrass (Vietnamese no?) chicken totally sad, and a panang curry that left much to be desired. Thai food can be so rich, dynamic and wonderful. Even the pad thai was sloppy. This place felt like no one cared. I wish I could give them a higher review, that this could be our thai place, but it was not to be.

Grams and I had a late lunch here, and were amongst the only customers (because we were eating lunch at 2:30pm). I loved the decor, it all looked very fresh, and very different from the previous "Thai Place" establishment. We ordered the soft spring rolls; grams got a chicken and noodle salad, and I had the chicken pad see ew, hot. In addition, grams got an iced tea, and I got the Thai iced tea. My Thai iced tea was really sweet, and the dipping sauce for the spring rolls was the consistency of water, and fairly flavor-less. Other than that, it was all delicious. We chit chatted for quite some time while we were there, and we were never rushed--in fact, our waiter came by many times, making sure that we were still doing ok. My grams had never had Thai, so I was so glad that our experience and food was a wonderful experience--she said she wanted to go back to try the rest of the menu!
(4)Swetha B.
One of the recently opened thai restaurants in. Kansas City, this place has wonderful ambiance. May it be their unique cushions, or the little artifacts. The food is commendable. My husband and I make sure we go there when I'm visiting him. Only thing that bothers me, is their slow service. As they have very few people attending to you
(4)Leesa A.
I ordered the pad see eww and pad Kee Mao. Food was good but a bit on the sweet side. Price for lunch was a little bit over priced for lunch menu.
(3)C B.
I went Friday with a co-worker. We both had Pad See Ew, mine was vegetarian. The noodles were cooked perfect, but the whole dish lacked any real Thai flavor. The salad lacked flavor also. Medium was not spicy at all. I will go again and try a curry and see how that is.
(2)Dan P.
The Thai Place restaurant that was located here previously was pretty good, but after it closed and was replaced several months later, we hesitated to try the new Sawasdee Thai for fear it wouldn't hold up to the previous tenant. BOY, WERE WE WRONG!! We found the food is significantly better! The Tom Yum soup is outstanding, with great depth and flavor to the broth. Definitely recommended on a cold day. All curries are very fresh and very very tasty. All are made to your specifications on heat, and are absolutely delightful after they've been soaked up in rice. The Mussaman curry is especially delicious (my favorite is with beef). The barometer of most Thai restaurants is their Pad Thai, and Sawasdee doesn't disappoint. Again, the theme is fresh ingredients with noodles that were not mushy or congealed together in a mass, and most importantly not greasy or oily by any means. Definitely recommended! The space is also very open and inviting, and the service is friendly and attentive, making Sawasdee one of our neighborhood favorites, and some of the best Thai we've had in KC!
(4)Richard E.
Everything was mediocre. The pad Thai was too sweet and didn't have much flavor. Crab rangoon was average.
(2)Mambo G.
Fantastic new Thai restaurant to replace the previous one. Eaten here several times so far! Super fresh, (very important in Thai cuisine!) very very tasty, simple, contemporary decor. This is a PERFECT place for lunch. The red curry with fried tofu....AMAZING...as are the soft spring rolls with peanut sauce....Highly recommended!!!
(5)Ryan H.
Went in here for the first time. You know, the seating is a bit weird. The space is very open. I had the drunken noodle (pad kee maw?) which was great. Price is fair compare to other thai restaurants. Everyone was super polite and that made the experience so much more enjoyable. I would def come back, in comparison to other thai restaurants around (in my opinion), it's cheaper and a much more pleasant dinning experience.
(4)Uomograsso U.
Stopped here for a very early dinner so I was the only person in the restaurant. I ordered the Pad Thai. Food came out quickly and it was delicious. The prices are pretty standard for most of the local Thai restaurants, service was great as was the food.
(4)Caitlin H.
My husband and I have been back several times because the food is so amazing. Their service is much better now and everyone is always so nice. Glad we didn't give up after the first time!
(5)Khalil B.
Food was good and service was efficient, but a little more guidance through the menu and personality would have been nice.
(3)Randy W.
I'll go 3 stars as this is a new place only open a week. The spring rolls with chicken satay were mostly lettuce, with a french fry-size piece of chicken. The Phad Thai and Phad See Eaw were ok at best. The chicken was dry- like it was cooked and put back in the walk-in, and added to the pan. No flavor was cooked into the meat. "Hot" was hot on my Phad Thai, but barely medium on the other dish. Finally, the booths are very odd. The are bare wood boxes, two seats deep, with a movable pillow as a backrest. They were as comfortable as they sound. Service was very good, esp as we were the only diners at the time. I wish these folks the best with the endeavors, but we'll stick with our closer and much preferred favorite.
(3)Jack B.
I went there last weekend. The sampler and Basil wing were so delicious. The server was very polite. Don't forget to try coconut ice cream and mango cheesecake for dessert. Those were amazing.
(5)John B.
Great food! The basil chicken and the red curry chicken were exceptional. It wait staff were very attentive and service was speedy. The price was perfect for the portions received. I will be back very soon.
(5)Michal K.
Excellent place to eat. I love the noodles and I really love all their curry i have tried most of them. Nothing but good great food here. Clean and really nice with a friendly staff.
(5)Rachel W.
We had a couple of the noodle dishes and the sampler appetizer. Really flavorful! Will go again.
(4)Nicole S.
Service was impeccable. Lovely atmosphere. Most importantly, the food was delicious. We both ordered two variations of the curry, both wonderful. First visit, not the last!
(5)Pooja V.
I dined here last night and was really looking forward to satisfy my Thai food craving. I was disappointed as I walked into a kids birthday party where the entire hall was booked. They were nice enough to accommodate us in the back room but that didn't help much & took away from the ambience as it was still very loud. The food was sub par, I had ordered the Shrimp Penang Curry - Hot. The spice level wasn't up to the mark, at most I would call it medium spicy. I had to add additional spices to the curry. The shrimp seemed somewhat uncooked and the curry a bit too sweet. I have had better Penang curry in other Thai food restaurants in town. I have to say the Thai crab Rangoon were delicious & so was the Thai hot tea. The service was slow & the waitress not too attentive. I am not sure if it was an off night where they were too busy and didn't pay much attention or if this might be the norm. I am not sure if I would come back again.
(3)Dennis Z.
Excellent Thai food. Did not disappoint. Tom kha chicken was wonderful. Beef Gaprow and Paad Thai on second visit where wonderful.
