Sawasdee Kitchen

Eh. They are okay. I have eaten Thai food in every region of Thailand - sorry people that swear this is authentic. It's decent at best. The egg rolls are really good but you might as well drink a gallon of grease (see the picture). They are NEVER on time. "Come in 20 minutes." I come in 30 - not ready. The next time I waited 40 minutes (20 extra) still not ready. Why TF am I waiting almost an hour for food?

If you like your spice/heat level through the roof, this is the place for you. Being a pepper head, I ordered mine 5, my wife ordered 2. Big mistake. Am not exaggerating, both orders were easily 8. No other Thai restaurant in Columbia, Irmo, Lexington or Charleston even remotely approaches this level of heat. Next time we both will order levels 1 and 0, respectively.

We live near here and Sawasdee Kitchen has gotten some great reviews! So we tried it. It was small, clean, tastefully decorated, and the generous menu gave us lots of choices. The egg roll was one of the best I've had. I hit the Thai noodles south chicken. He had hot miso soup and the Garners Ferry sushi plate. We were both impressed and will be going back! It was superb!

I went in yesterday 4/19/19 and was greeted by the sweetest lady. She answered all my questions and was very helpful. I placed my order and requested no mushrooms because I'm allergic to them. Got home and mushrooms was in my food. Went back in and before I could say anything she said apologized saying that the food had mushrooms. Her husband was very nice as well and he apologized for the error. We talked while my order was being prepared. They were so nice and apologetic. 5 stars for being genuine, kind, and very loving.

I absolutely love this place. For it to be a small area, it is very spacious. Most of all, the staff are awesome! They always greet you with a friendly smile to include the chef who may come out from time to time. I try something new every time I go and everything that I've had so far was amazing! I always have really good experience every time I go which is twice a week.
