Samsen (Sheung Wan)

Today's lunch at Samsen once again confirmed why it's my favorite spot for Thai cuisine. The menu offerings were exceptional: - **Wok Fried Rice with Crab Meat:** Packed with fresh, flavorful crab. - **Stir Fried Chicken with Flat Noodles:** Perfectly cooked with a great texture balance. - **Spicy Chopped Duck with Thai Her Salad:** Bold and tender, with just the right spice level (my friend thinks it’s very spicy) - **Milk Tea Ice Cream:** A big creamy, uniquely flavored dessert. I barely can finish it. The ambiance is welcoming and the service efficient. Samsen consistently delivers a delightful dining experience with authentic Thai flavors. Highly recommended for anyone seeking quality Thai dishes.

Always a long queue and I see the reason why. Authentic Thai small dishes that comes with plenty of wok hey and complex flavors. You will be seated only when the whole party has arrived. We had their famous Thai crab fried rice and it was super yummy. Would certainly come back again to try the other dishes. Nice ambience and for a weekday lunch they didn’t ask us to leave after the stated dining time.

Samsen always consistent. Such great Thai food, great choices that feels homely and nostalgic. All dishes were spot on. Pad Thai was delicious, would probably want more peanuts on the side. Phat kaphrao fantastic and spicy. The dessert were also quite big and tasty. Service was quick and we didn’t wait too long despite we were a group of 8. Something like 30-40 minutes. The place is big inside.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Samsen Thai Street Food and I must say, the food was absolutely delicious! As a pro tip, I highly recommend grabbing a seat at the bar for fast seating. Not only will you get served quickly, but you'll also get to enjoy the action from the kitchen, which is an added bonus. The chefs are masters of their craft and it's fascinating to watch them whip up dish after dish with ease. The aromas wafting from the kitchen will only add to your anticipation, making the wait for your food almost unbearable. Almost. The dishes we ordered were all expertly prepared and presented, with bold flavors that exploded with every bite. The prices are very reasonable, making it an excellent value for the quality and quantity of food you receive. Overall, I highly recommend Samsen Thai Street Food to anyone looking for an authentic and delicious Thai dining experience. Be sure to arrive early and grab a seat at the bar for the full effect!

I recently dined at Samsen, and I must say the food is absolutely fantastic! The flavors are authentic and every dish is beautifully presented. I especially loved the Pad Thai and the Tom Yum soup—they were bursting with flavor! The atmosphere is cozy, making it a great spot for both casual meals and special occasions. Highly recommend if you're craving delicious Thai food!

Samsen was a popular Thai restaurant in Sheung Wan. The food was decent and not pricey. Their cocktail was unexpectedly good but the place might be a bit noisy for your first date. I tried to book a table but was told to make a walk-in visit. We ended up leaving our phone number at the reception and went for a drink nearby while waiting in a queue for 40min. It was overall a good choice for a quiet bite and casual gathering with friends.

Of all the time I’ve been to Hong Kong, this was the best restaurant I visited so far!!! The service and food are chief’s kiss🫨🫡🤩😋🙌👍👌🤌Totally worth the money! And the waitress is very good on her work. I think her names Ruku? Something like that. She deserves a raise!!!

I picked this place for celebrating my friend’s birthday and we had a great time, foods and service here. We surprised that the Thai vibe is quite strong, but if there are more options for the food, it will be prefect. No booking under 6 ppl, and need to wait for a while for walk-in, 7pm is already full.
