Review Sea Thai Restaurant - Orlando

TOP THREE THAI IN ORLANDO! Don't let the fact that this is located in a strip mall fool you; I've tried many other Thai restaurants in Orlando but this is by far one of my favorite ones. The service is excellent, they managed to make the space inside feel cozy and the food is absurdly delicious. From the appetizers to the noodle dishes, every plate has the right balance of spice and flavors. The papaya salad and the Thai basil noodles are my go-tos but I haven't had a dish here that disappointed me.

This place is an unsuspecting little gem. Seems like a family owned place. Nice ambiance and decor inside. Friendly staff and great food. We ordered summer rolls as an appetizer and they were awesome! Then for our entrees, we ordered shrimp and broccoli and tiger tear steak. Then of course topped it off with some thai donuts! Would highly recommend and will definitely return!

Sea Thai in Orlando is hands down the best Thai restaurant in town. The atmosphere is warm, thanks to the incredibly friendly staff. Each dish is a testament to authentic Thai flavors, but my personal favorite is the Pineapple Cashew Fried Rice - it's a delightful blend of sweet and savory, perfectly cooked every time. Whether you're a Thai cuisine aficionado or trying it for the first time, Sea Thai is a must-visit for an unforgettable dining experience.

They have some unique dishes not typically seen in the average Thai restaurant, but some of their classics were a bit off the mark. Our favorites were the Khao Soi, Smokey Pot, and green papaya salad. However, the Thai Coconut Milk Soup was too sour, tulip dumplings a bit of a disappointment, pad see eu and basil fried rice were just ok. They do give you the spice level you ask for, so take note. Prices are very reasonable. Service was friendly. I'd come back to give their curries a try.

Located in a strip mall with Eyeglass World. Fast and friendly service. Had the Thai Salad with a delectable peanut sauce! Entree was a very flavorful Shrimp Red Curry with brown rice. I appreciated how much Thai Basil was in the dish, as well as how crisp the vegetables were. An absolute delight.

Good customer service. They took care of us as soon as we walked in. There was no wait. They did not take long to bring the food either. The food tasted fresh and delicious!!! They also have reasonable prices.

8/2023: Still good. Prices are still pretty reasonable too. Pineapple Fried Rice was very light on the pineapple. Coconut broth soup was great. No refills for green tea, which is always annoying because it's so cheap to make :( 2019: We frequent both Thai House and S.E.A. Thai. They are both very good. I used to think Thai House was the best in town, but I've found that I like S.E.A. Thai just as much if not more these days, even though they are a little different. I think the seafood combination in garlic pepper sauce is outstanding, though may not be traditionally Thai. I like all their curries and curry-related dishes, and all the standard stuff like phad thai, satay, etc. The sticky rice w/ coconut ice-cream is even better than other places I've had it at. The ambiance is chic and clean, and all the servers are friendly. I should note that their food is on the sweeter side.

This is a local favorite. Really high quality Thai food and very pleasant service. Nice atmosphere perfect for a date.

I’ve been going to Sea Thai for years and it is definitely local favorite, also my favorite Thai in Orlando. Tasty and high quality food with reasonable prices. Their crispy boneless duck on any curry is always 10/10. Chicken satay was juicy, well seasoned and paired well with their peanut sauce. All noodles are delicious!

This place has won best Thai restaurant in Orlando for two years in a row now, according to the readers of Orlando Weekly, whom I trust very much with food recommendations. So I had to come and check this place out. It's just hanging out nonchalantly on the side of Colonial. No frills or anything on the outside. On the inside, however, is a nice, classic interior that felt very Thai to me. I've never been to Thailand, but I still got the vibe. Anyway, we got seated and started ordering fooood. Started off with the Fried Tofu (Golden battered fried tofu, served with a sweet chili sauce). The fried tofu was great! I like my tofu nice and firm, and it would have to be in order to hold up to the battering and frying process. Nice and crispy on the outside, soft, creamy tofu consistently on the inside. Served with the classic sweet chili sauce, and this was a winner. I also got my hands on the Summer Roll Shrimp. These are super fresh. The Huge, plump shrimp were cooked perfectly, and the mega crunchy lettuce inside really makes this a light, fun little app. For my main event, I chose the Pineapple Duck Curry (Crispy boneless duck, pineapple, tomato, sweet basil, bamboo, bell pepper, & eggplant in red curry cream sauce). Wow. The duck, as advertised, had very crispy skin. Veggies aplenty, with my favorite being the sweet pineapple. Of course, the make or break of this was gonna be the sauce, and yes, it is jam packed with creamy, curry-y deliciousness. I was a HUGE fan, and I do recommend this. I also got to sample the Woonsen Pad Thai (Jumbo fresh water prawns, glass noodle, bean sprout & peanut). You only get three huge prawns on this dish, so they better darn well be cooked good. And they were. It was like eating three mini-lobsters. You know what glass noodles and bean sprouts are like, so just take a bite of this, a bite of that, and this is a really fun dish, too. Overall, wow, this was great. Everything was so good and way way better than the Thai offerings that generic Asian restaurants have to offer. Find this hidden gem, and give them your patronage.

I have never been here before, but it sounded good on a cold night. The table ordered soup and vegetable spring rolls. Both were fresh and flavorful. I got massaman curry, and it was the best I’d ever had!! It was so full of fresh flavors and was rich. The ambiance was simple, cute, up to date and clean. The staff was incredibly nice! I know our table kinda took a few extra minutes to order while the waitress was at our table, but the waitress was very sweet, patient was gave good suggestions. Also, price point, it was extremely reasonable. I thought because the appetizers were so low in cost, they would be small, but they were full sized and good portions. Overall this place is amazing! Would love to come back.

I tried the pineapple duck curry it was delicious 10/10. I recommend getting extra order of rice with it, and maybe skip on the appetizer since it’s a lot of food. My girlfriend got the yellow curry with chicken 8/10. Slightly smaller portion compared to the duck curry. We both left very happy.

Their matcha and Thai tea is super delicious! Totally recommend it if you’re coming here! The appetizer is delicious, but my main course was a bit salty! They put too much sauces into the fried rice, but it was good. I recommend coming here for Thai food in Orlando because it’s such a cute, chill restaurant.

New favorite Thai place, I usually go to a place in Waterford town center Very nice atmosphere, staff was friendly Started out with tulip dumplings, reminded me of shrimp balls a little texture wise The red curry was delicious loved the addition of eggplant - I had crispy duck on top that was so tender it almost melted in your mouth with very little fat. Good portion size, very filling. Another patron had overhead me ordering and warned me the curry could be spicy - he also mentioned seathai is his favorite thai place in Orlando and that he used to live in thailand which seemes promising! I ordered the curry mild and it was very good, I even added some extra chili oil that is brought to the table. I had a glass of bansai the plume + sake and it was very delicious, I don't have a lot of info on sake but it was very smooth and sweet like a desert wine.

Here we have a hole in the wall gem. The food is very good, and tastes fresh. The staff is pleasant, and professional. There is a good variety of lunch specials, even with a somewhat limited menu probably due to covid. The entire staff is masked, and it felt safe.

I came here with my friend and can see why it won best Thai restaurant in Orlando. I had the Thai tea, Pad Thai, and coconut ice cream with sticky rice. Overall phenomenal from start to finish. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend to anyone in Orlando!

First time eating from this place and I was so pleased! the Duck in basil sauce was exceptional! Spring rolls taste delicious! Coconut shrimps where a little bit hard but still sauce was so great that just make them taste great!! My wife tried the pineapple fried rice was amazing!!
