Sabai Cafe & Bar

Alright, here with the boys. On a road trip, you know it’s gonna be a smash. Shoutout the dad. Paid for. The food was great. Great flavors. I don’t know a lot about Thai food but it was salty, sweet, and different flavors all around. Service was great. There wasn’t really any spice. The rice was good. The curry seemed to lack uniqueness, but it was classic. Don’t know what the other dishes were called but they were all good. Overall, 7.6 which equals 3.8. Close enough to 4. Till next time.

Wow! We had such a great experience. The food was awesome and the service was excellent. We had a sampling of dishes, including the pockets of love, scallops carpaccio, tempura green beans, white angel on fire and the fancy Thai eggplant. Everything was great, I do wish our dishes were spicier but that is a personal preference. Looking forward to eating here again. I recommend reservations even for lunch because it was packed!

One of our favorite Thai restaurants in the Eugene area. Welcoming environment, the staff are friendly and provide prompt service. The food and drinks are of good variety and flavor. Crispy Thai Basil is our favorite dish.

We ordered the Fresh Salad Rolls with the most amazing peanut sauce that I can only describe as the best PB&J dip I've ever had. My husband, who doesn't like fresh rolls, even finished his. That says A LOT. We also ordered the Golden Rolls, which were perfection in a wonton wrapper. By far, the best "egg roll" you can order. The noodles inside were even perfectly cooked! As a foodie who is really getting into making my own Thai at home, this has so far been the best Thai restaurant I've ever eaten in and has inspired me with things to do in my own dynamic kitchen. For dinner, we ordered the Crying Tiger Salad, which was spicy and toasty and absolutely delicious. If not a wee bit too much red onion, the mint really made that dish shine. My only complaint was the steak was tough, albeit perfectly cooked to how we ordered it, medium rare. Additionally, the Spicy Cachew Chicken Noodle was spicy on the lips and cooked, again, perfectly. Vegetables had texture, and the noodles cooked beautifully. I also saw the Scallops be delivered to another eater, and the scallop looked seared to perfection. I'm so impressed. We will be back with everyone we know.

First impressions count and Sabai is a winner. Bright, modern surroundings, great service, delicious food and ample portions. Innovative bar drinks. Excellent menu of varied choices. The staff are very personable and attentive. Kitchen was able to accommodate for a food sensitivity. We have made this restaurant a favorite go-to for all occasions.

We have lived in Eugene for almost a year and this has by far been our favorite place to eat dinner. It has very savory taste, great options, and amazing scenery for all occasions.

Busy place! Be ready to wait but it’s great food. We are here passing through and loved it. I got the basil fried rice dish. Very good. Their spicy level is on the high side. I got medium and it was plenty of heat for me. The portions are large. You can easily share or you will probably have left overs.

Sabai is definitely in our top 3 places to eat, not just for the food but also the quality of service. Unfortunately, this was likely our most disappointing Sabai experience to date. We were seated promptly just before our reservation, which was nice. Upon ordering drinks, the seasonal beer i asked for was empty and the cocktail 🍸 that my wife ordered came mixed with tequila in place of amaretto which is quite far off but we were assured it was because their bartender was recently replaced and was learning the menu. We ordered golden rolls and they were amazing as always 😋 More disappointment came with our main dishes which were yellow curry rice made vegan with extra veggies. Unfortunately the veggies in the meal were not fully cooked or even warmed to the core which is likely because the broccoli pieces were huge which also made them too hard to cut with a fork without making a mess (maybe they also have a new cook?). The flavor of the meal was also just a bit bland compared to every other time we eat here. It was disappointing to bring my mom here from out of state only to have a sub par experience after talking it up so much. We will be back again but hopefully next time they will be back to their old quality.
