“ Delicious food from an unassuming location! Everyone was very friendly. And since a review needs to be 85 characters then I will keep mindlessly typing ”
“ Here again for pad thai at lunch and as always it was delicious. Super quick service per usual and a great value for a healthy portion of food. The Tom kha soup was also really good. Simple ingredients but big flavor! ”
“ Thai Sawatdee is an absolute gem for authentic Thai cuisine, tucked inside Harris Teeter, making it a convenient yet unexpected delight! My recent visit was nothing short of wonderful. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, adding a warm and inviting touch to the entire experience. The Tom Yum soup with seafood was a standout dish! A balance of heat and flavor with a mild hint of lemongrass that elevated the dish without overpowering it. I also enjoyed their spring rolls, which were wonderfully crispy and paired perfectly with the sweet chili sauce--simple but absolutely satisfying. To top it all off, I sipped on a refreshing glass of Thai iced tea. It had just the right level of sweetness and a creamy, rich consistency that complemented my meal. The dishes were visually stunning, as seen in the photos, and the flavors lived up to their presentation. If you're craving a vibrant and authentic Thai dining experience, Thai Sawatdee should be at the top of your list. The friendly service and unique location make it even more special! ”
“ I have been wanting to come here for quite a while. I was finally able to come and honestly, it's my new favorite Pho spot its inside of the Harris tetter on Cloverdale, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I ordered the spring rolls to start off and they are so simple yet so delicious and to drink I of course ordered a Thai tea and it was perfect and so refreshing we then ordered the steak and brisket pho the broth was perfect and the type of noodle they used was also one of my favorite things and they also brought us out an assortment of chilis oils which is one of my favorite parts because I love to make mine very spicy. The service here was great and it was very easy to order, and they were still very attentive I will say it's a bit confusing the first time you go but you just order at the counter and take a seat, and they bring the food right to your table this is my new pho spot for sure. ”
“ Located inside a grocery store, Thai Sawatdee is a great place to grab lunch or dinner while doing your grocery shopping. Service was quick and food came out quickly. I was able to pick up a few items needed from Harris Teeter and when I returned my food was ready. They also have tables if you wish to eat there, which I did since it was clean inside. I ordered the lunch pad Thai special, which came with two small spring rolls and my choice of soup or salad. I picked the salad and it was so good. I'm not sure if the dressing was a combo ginger peanut dressing or what but it was so good. I have never had orange pad Thai before but it was super flavorful. Had a citrus feel to it but it was some of the best pad Thai I've ever had. Gonna be hard to eat any other pad Thai dish from somewhere else. ”
“ Wonderful! Easy takeout. Big menu. Curries are great. Thai chicken salad is a go-to for us. ”
“ I tried this small spot located in the front, left side of the Harris Teeter in this sprawling, busy strip center that was home to Cloverdale Kitchen for over 50 years! There is a sister restaurant on Healy Drive. There is no table service so head to the small register that fronts the equally small kitchen. Though this is predominantly a takeout spot, there are a few tables available for dining - you have a good view of the grocery store's produce section. I ordered the Spicy Catfish lunch special and the Thai Basil lunch (chicken only) - both come with soup and 2 spring rolls with chili sauce. This was some good food - a nice level of spice and texture - not too much spice, a fine amount of texture! The catfish was not especially plentiful, what was there was very flavorful. The catfish nuggets were stir fried in curry paste along with onions, carrots, zucchini, bamboo shoots, green pepper, and basil leafs. The chicken chunks were deep fried then put in a sweet sauce made up of sesame paste, rice vinegar, and soy sauce, among other things - this dish is a bit like Genl Tso's chicken. The broccoli was plentiful, tender and fresh tasting. The clear broth soup had a decent amount of vegetables and had a nice flavor. I'm not the biggest fan of spring rolls since they are often thinly filled and overcooked - but these were nicely filled, loaded with flavor that was further enhanced by the Thai chili sauce - right mixture of heat and sweet. The service was excellent, efficient and personable. I'll definitely return. ”
“ The first time I came here, I was completely turned around and had no idea where the Thai restaurant was in this Harris Teeter shopping center. SURPRISE!! It's INSIDE the Harris Teeter in the produce section. Don't let this be a deterrent though. This is surprisingly convenient when you get used to it. You can place your order, pick up your grocery essentials and then grab your take out on the way out. Naturally, being inside a Harris Teeter limits the potential for ambiance, but that's not what real foodies focus on. I've eaten in, and though the dining area is small, everything is clean and orderly with good table space. The service is prompt and polite. You're always promptly greeted, given some time with the menus and then able to order when ready. I have tried quite a few things on their menu, including almost every item in the appetizer section, the pad woon sen, the Thai soups and the pho and nothing to date has disappointed me. I highly recommend this restaurant. ”
“ After so long it was time for an updated review. Most people outside of Winston Salem thinks it is crazy that the best Thai food is found in a grocery store. Most of the time I get to go but today we decided to eat in the store. They have really great lunch specials. My husband loves their pad. Thai and I had a tasty noodle dish with shrimp. My son loves dumplings, so he wanted to try them. They are packed with filling and have a really wonderful flavor, the lunch special comes with delicious spring rolls and a soup or salad. I love their peanut dressing because it is not too sweet. The soup is also very light. I would highly recommend eating at Teeter Thai. ”
