We came here a few times for lunch and dinner because it was so good. I had a few different dishes and all were exceptional. Service was slow one night but we were told at the start that there was only one chef on that...night. We were happy to wait. Other times service was great as you would expect from a well managed restaurant. Very friendly staff , great value and very clean .More

Everything was very tasty, portions are huge and prices are lower than average in this area. Staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, they speak very good English, we had no issues communicating. You should definitely go here! And we’ll surely come back for more tasty...food.More

We stopped here on the way back to Bangkok. The service was fast and friendly. Very nice people. The dim sum was good - the pork shumai juicy. The best were the taro spring rolls and fried shrimp rolls. The Hong Kong noodles were good....Top tim grop was not what I remembered but was fine. I like the ice crushed a little more so it is easier to eat.More

We have been to this cafe four times already and it was always brilliant. The ladies working there are so kind and attentive. The food is amazing - Thai spring rolls, pineapple fried rice and Massaman curry were our favourite. They were so good that...they offered to create a special dish of steamed veggies and chicken for our 1 year old but he actually preferred their pineapple rice. Their dessert menu is limited but it is still excellent. So, they are No 1 on trip advisor for a very good reason.More

We were recommended this restaurant/cafe around our hotel. Glad we listened. In terms of value for money, cleanliness, customer service and quality of food and the potion was generous. One of the best in Thailand, our 3rd day here in Karon and our favourite so...far. The manager was great. Highly recommend.More

After reading other reviews made our way here for dinner and it was excellent. Our daughter is allergic to a few things which can be difficult but here the service was great and communication excellent. Food was delicious we had Massaman curry and crispy chicken...with Penang sauce. Very good value too.More

Nicely air conditioned place, well made food but good value for money. We have had several misses but this one was fine. Service was very good, the pad-thai spaghetti was delicious, tiger shrimps and others were all pretty fresh and tasty.

Absolutely amazing. Have been coming here for about 6-7 years, pre and post pandemic. Each time we visit, we are remembered and welcomed, it feels like coming home to family you don't see often enough. The staff here quickly learned our favourite meals and we...were always treated with a little dessert after dinner that perfectly finished off the night. If you are lucky enough to find yourself in Phuket, make your way to Karon Beach and visit Sabaijai cafe. You will love it as much as we did.More

The food was incredible!! The staff were super helpful and accommodating, we came here six times over the course of two weeks. Reasonable priced large meals, made to exceptional quality. We tried the Chicken Schnitzel with Panang Curry and the Fried Broccoli and shrimp, these...were our favourites. We also had the Massaman Curry, Schnitzel with Green Curry, Pepper Crab, Stir Fried Noodles with Soy Sauce, Morning Glory and the Spring Rolls. All was amazing! We will be back 😊More

After visiting this restaurant on my first day in Thailand due to the positive reviews, it certainly lived up to expectations! Very friendly and professional staff, the food was delicious and at a very affordable price. The experience certainly set a high benchmark for the...rest of my trip, so much so, that after 10 days I decided to have my last meal here and was blown away again! Thank you and keep up the fantastic standards. I will be back again 🙏More
