Sabaidee Thai Restaurant in Eastbourne

Had a fantastic time at this restaurant whilst visiting the town! The food was amazing and the service was brilliant. All the food came out really quickly but was fresh and very tasty!

We came here for a pre-theatre dinner on a Friday night. It was 5.30pm so quiet when we came in, but it quickly filled up so possibly a good idea to book. The service was superb and the food came extremely quickly and was delicious. The vegetables were all fresh and tasty and everything was cooked to perfection. As we still had plenty of time we ordered dessert, which was also delicious. I love Thai food and this was amongst the best I have had. I would thoroughly recommend it.

Impromptu visit. Good food, good service. Great for pre theatre dinner.

Fantastic restaurant. Food was first class and came pretty quickly even though the restaurant was full. We came about 9pm on a Sunday evening and we grabbed the last table so you may want to book ahead

This was my third visit here and is becoming my favourite place to eat when working in Eastbourne. The food is always top notch and really reasonably priced. Tonight O had the set menu for £24 which included the duck and oh wow it was delicious!

Don't go for Thia generally, been to a few up market places which never agreed with me. My partner has been here a few times, so I relented. Service was excellent, such a busy bustling place, had two unknown mains to cover my losses and was advised one of my choices was probably not what I would be expecting, so took the advice. Fantastic! Booking advisable, although two not us on Saturday night got lucky at 8.30pm.

Gorgeous food and lovely staff.

Had our first meal here & it will most definitely not be the last. Excellent food, good service & a reasonable price.

We went here last week and had a amazing time, tried lot of thai dishes and they all was delicious, we will definitely be back, thank

Our first time at this lovely restaurant for a birthday lunch. Food was truly excellent matching the friendly and helpful staff. We had all our meals off the set menu and were not disappointed. Every dish was freshly prepared, hot, full of flavour, generously portioned and beautifully presented. One of our party was a Coeliac needing gluten free food, but this proved no issue for this restaurant. Thoroughly recommended and we will return for our next outing.

Loved it. Very friendly staff and service was superb

Delicious food, highly recommend. Staff are also so friendly and welcoming.

Thoroughly enjoyed the food. We had the set menu for 2 with starters then pad thai, a chicken curry and a pork dish mains - delicious. Plenty for 2 people.

Delicious Thai food. Stop for lunch and get 2 courses and a drink for £18.95. Friendly & attentive service. Small, charming & atmospheric.

Everything we ordered was so tasty and authentic. Some of the best Thai food I've had in England. One standout dish was the king prawn stir fried in a yellow curry sauce. The staff was friendly as well.

Bland, unbalanced, inconsistent Thai food. None of the subtle flavors that I've had in better Thai restaurants. Two of my kids had Pad Thai and one of them was way too sweet, the other one was good. My curry had zero subtlety, a total waste of my time.

We had a lovely meal. The Tom Yum soup was excellent. His Thai Green was OK, would have preferred it spicier but asked for prick nam pla, spiced fish sauce which helped. I had beef with ground pepper sauce which was divine! We finished with banana fritters & ice cream. The fritters were excellent. The ice cream could have been creamier. All in all, we would go again and definitely recommend.

Great food, very tasty and lots of choice on the menu. Service was fantastic and very friendly. Thank you for a lovely evening

Yet another excellent meal and fantastic service at what I believe to be the best Thai restaurant in Eastbourne. May & her team work very hard to ensure that everyone has an excellent dining experience.

Always at the top of my list when visiting family in Eastbourne, this lovely little Thai restaurant remains one of the best ...with food as good as far more expensive offerings in other places. It always seems to be fairly busy so probably a good idea to book ahead.

Easily the best Green Thai I have ever had. Exceptional 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Every dish was 10/10 Highly recommend

Wonderful food and service was impeccable. Look forward to going again very soon.

What an amazing meal we had celebrating someone's birthday. The food was fantastic while the service was simply amazing. We were visitors to Eastbourne for a long weekend but we will definitely return to Sabaidee Thai Restaurant the next time we visit Eastbourne. Highly recommended!

Simply the best Thai in Eastbourne! Staff are so friendly and amazing, food is exceptional. I look forward to my very regular visits for a superb take away!

Had a fantastic evening meal with close friends. Food was fantastic. The service was excellent and the pricing very competitive.

Very busy and food always good. But not what I would call a relaxed meal.

My all time favourite restaurant. Superb food, extensive menu and very reasonably priced. Well worth the 12 mile travel. Beats all the top restaurants I have visited in London and at one third of the price.

Lovely gracious Thai restaurant

This restaurant was close to the hotel and had good reviews. Only selected the set menu as it was quick and easy.. but food was very tasty and arrived in a sensible time frame. friendly staff, woudl gladly visit again if in the area

Food: I ordered four dishes. The assorted vegetables were fresh and delicious, the shrimp in the pineapple fried rice was very cold, the sea bass was frozen and tasted bad, and the curry chicken breast also tasted bad. Service: Other white customers in the store sat at a table for four, but my girlfriend and I sat at a table for two, but there were many other empty seats. I felt that I was being treated racially differently. It is worth mentioning that after we changed tables, they put the forks that had fallen on the floor on the table for two back to their original positions. I cannot accept this kind of hygiene. Atmosphere: Nothing major, neither good nor bad

Spice level 0.5 I guess that's what the locals want. It was a full resturant and the table service although working hard was slow.

Menu A was very tasty, value for money was right

Food and staff just amazing. Highly recommended 👌

Beautiful ambiance, this Thai restaurant has been running for a decade, can't fault it

Nice ambience and polite staff but the food wasn't that good. We had beef massaman curry and beef was raw and tough. The proper beef massaman should be cooked for few hours so the meat becomes tender and absorbs the flavour of the liquid, rather than just fry the meat in a separate pan.

Always pay a visit to this lovely Thai restaurant when I'm in Eastbourne bit of a hidden gem lovely staff and great food been coming here for years

Stumbled across this gem in town , some of the best Thai food I have tried in England. The squid and crispy sea bass were incredible. Of course the lovely humans there were of great service as there nation is known for its gracious and incredible hospitality!

Excellent . Been twice and will be going many more times

Super yummy food, big portions, tasty and good price. The staff is friendly and we will definitely back next time when we will visit the area.

Best curry I've tried. Great Thai food and espectacular service. If in Eastbourne, must pay this place a visit.

Good food good service,just not enough lighting

Excellent food but the portions are quite small. Friendly service and probably the cleanest toilets I’ve seen in Eastbourne.

Another excellent meal at Sabaidee! We have just returned home after eating at Sabaidee & celebrating Mother’s Day along with our two children. Great service & wonderfully delicious food. Thank you!

Lovely restaurant with authentic interiors and friendly, efficient service. Both curries and the steak salad were excellent.

Really delicious food and excellent service. Easily the best Pad Thai I've eaten in the UK. We had 2 starters (the dim sum is brilliant), 2 main courses, 2 sides and a bottle of wine for about £80

Great little Thai restaurant, great food and service. When we are back in Eastbourne we will most certainly go back.

Fantastic menu, wonderful food, great service and your visit won't break the bank worthy of all 5 stars.

Packed on a Wednesday night in Eastbourne! Tells you all you need to know about a first class joint. Superb flavours. Enjoy!

I've been here a few times when I come to Eastbourne. It's handy when I'm staying at the View Hotel and everyone I've taken there really enjoys it. There's a good choice of dishes and there are three set menus for two or more if you want to try several different dishes. We had set menu b this time. There was a good selection of starters and we had three main courses to share. Recommend for the tasty food and nice friendly atmosphere.

Delicious food, lovely welcome, it was early so just a few people in there, only reason not 5 stars

Really enjoyed the food and the service 5 stars from me

When we're in Eastbpurne, Sabaidee if always our first night dinner. Fantastic food and service

Green curry with tofu is out of this world 😍 the food is fresh and delicious, and the staff are so friendly. Our favourite Thai restaraunt in Eastbourne!

First time eating here. Quiet new years day and we were the first customers through the door, hence the 3 star rating on atmosphere. I'm sure it's great when busy. Food was fab and so were the team. We will definitely be going back!

Были в субботу вечером без предварительной брони но при этом свободные места были. Внутри достаточно атмосферно, тепло приветливые официанты которые помогли в выборе блюд, первое блюдо подали уже через 10мин. Нас было 5 чел. потратили 75£. мы заказывали супы, рыбу с рисом, лапшу с морепродуктами и лапша с говядиной. Все было очень вкусно. Мы остались довольны посещением данного заведения. Думаю мы туда еще вернёмся

Four g place just a great experience good food good price good service if your in the area you must try

First time here. Everything excellent. Will come again and highly recommend to friends

We had a takeaway from there. Everything was delicious. Would come again!

Third visit here with my better half now, the Thai food is sensational, especially the Thai green curry & the beef massaman, full of flavour, perfect sized portions. Plenty of sauce. Friendly staff, food comes out efficiently no long wait times. Is now in my top 5 places to eat in Eastbourne.

I think this was one of the best Thai meals my wife and I have ever had. All the staff were very helpful and polite. Will definitely go back again when we visit Eastbourne or go to the theatre.

What a fabulous little find this was! The place was buzzing, full to the rafters by 6pm on a Saturday... but they squeezed us in! Food delicious, staff wonderful. Worth a visit!

Delicious Thai food. Had a take out. Ready on time. Excellent value, good size portions. Highly recommended.

Delicious Thai cuisine. Great menu selection, including good variety of seafood, meat & vegetarian dishes. Had a take out. Ready on time. Excellent value, good size portions. Highly recommended.

Excellent food and service. We would highly recommend a visit if you are in Eastbourne. The cocktails are also excellent.

Lovely food and welcoming staff. Sit in or takeaway with speedy service. Reasonable prices for decent size portions.

Went for a pre-theartre meal with some friends. It was out first time and we all enjoyed it. Nice to see some gluten free options which I enjoyed very much 😊

Great place for the dinner: variety of vegetarian and vegan options, beers and wine. Friendly and quick service, big portions and tasty food. Authentic atmosphere and interior

Went in for lunch, as my partner saids he has been in with his friends and they really enjoyed. However, it was such a disappointing result. Chicken satay taste nothing like satay, tom yum soup not toditional taste. My main jungle curry have no taste. Part from my meal, the green and red curry are yummy! But the rice portion is so small for curry. Service charge applied** About £19 for 2 course with soft drink £9 for main , no drink included

Had dinner there recently with my partner, and we both found the food delicious. The meat and prawns were perfectly cooked. Very welcoming staff, fast service and overall a nice atmosphere. Would recommend.

A very warm welcome followed by excellent, authentic cuisine, well presented, good portions. The restaurant has traditional decor and the staff are all very friendly. Much recommended.

We visited Sabaidee yesterday evening (21/09/2023) for a birthday and pre-show meal. We ordered cocktails - Singapore Sling and a Mai Thai. Both were made to a high standard and were very easy to drink(!) We had starters of fried squid and Tom Yum soup. The squid was so soft and fresh, and the Tom Yum was fragrant and delicious. For our main course, I had the duck curry, and my partner had Weeping Tiger beef, along with egg fried rice and a coconut rice. Stunning and genuine Thai food, no food was left at the end (eventhough we were full) because the food was just too good! A wonderful Thai restaurant in walking distance of the Congress Theatre. Very quick service, along with lovely hosts. Thank you all.

Had a take away. Wow! I love Thai food but this was the best ever. High quality ingredients cooked to perfection. And lovely people too. I could not more highly recommend this restaurant.

Lovely food with a good selection of dishes on the menu, served in a friendly and professional manner.

Had dinner here recently on my birthday. We love Thai food and like to have it when we are away from home as we do not have a good Thai restaurant near where we live. The staff were lovely without being over attentive and the food was delicious. We had 2 main dishes as well as a noodle dish and 2 rice and all were so tasty and flavourful. Not bad value either especially for Brighton. Would definitely go again, thank you

We decided to have dinner here last night (Saturday) and really enjoyed it. I felt it was priced a little on the high side but we thoroughly enjoyed it. We had the duck spring roll for starter which was a bit mean on the duck filling but tasty. I had the king prawn pad Thai, the noodles were great but the prawns lacked any flavour at all so very disappointing. The egg fried rice was nice which went well with the deep fried king prawns. This was the highlight of the meal. Service was exceptional and very nice atmosphere. Maybe I’ll try again but try something different.

15 of us had come down from London and we made a last minute booking. The restaurant was then fully booked.We kept the staff very busy, but they coped exceptionally well. The food was very very good. We had so many dishes and they were all very good. Wish we were local enough to go there more regularly. One of the best Thai restaurants I've been too.

Very decent Thai, would recommend the pad Thai dish and the duck, their green curries were decent too. Service is decent and the place gets busy so I recommend booking in advance.

Better than lots of Pad Thai I’ve had in London. They also have a lunch option which is very affordable - must try in Eastbourne!

세븐시스터즈 가는길에 점심먹으려고 들렀습니다. 런던에서 살인적인 물가와 너무 별로인 태국음식들 먹다가 반신반의하면서 왔는데 저렴한 가격에 너어어어무 맛있게먹었습니다!! 고민하시지말고 꼭 오세요~!!!

Pad Thai was delicious, the duck was very crispy and staff super kind

Tremendous food , 1 of the best outside Thailand , Will be back to enjoy

We had dinner here as we both love Thai food. Having spent some time in Thailand I was somewhat disappointed, they seem to serve dumbed down dishes, not authentic Thai. Service was very good, restaurant was clean. Our table for 2 was really only suitable for 1 though. Fortunately we put our food on our plates as they arrived, so they could take away empty dishes, otherwise there would not have been enough room on the table for them. The Tom Yum soup had a nice amount of chicken in it, but wasn’t hot at all, tasty, but not a real Tom Yum. The ribs starter has a delicious sauce, but 2 ribs served and what seemed like 2 tiny knuckles with barely any meat on, very disappointing. The pad Thai was 40% egg, lots of egg white in it, plus an egg lattice on top too. Not great, rather flavourless, and barely warm. The prawn starter was like a British pub scampi. The chilli chicken was nice, but no heat in it whatsoever, a toddler would have happily eaten it. Rather sad they have no idea about hygiene, the tables all have menus placed directly on top of the plates, and they aren’t cleaned between customers handling them either! Very unhygienic. We won’t be eating here again.

Świetne tajskie jedzenie. Przemiła obsługa, dobre ceny.

Fab food. Immersive environment. Great location. Attentive staff. Recommended 💯

What a beautiful gem of a restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious.. delicate flavoursome food and great service. OH said its one of the nicest dinners he's ever had lol Will definitely visit when in Eastbourne

The service was warm, friendly and attentive. If you are looking for for a lovely menu with a wide choice with helpful advice and service, you have to try Sabaidee. ❤️👍🏻

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Sabaidee Thai Restaurant in Eastbourne and I must say, it was a fantastic experience. The food was absolutely delicious, showcasing the authentic flavors of Thailand. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm smiles and friendly staff. The service was impeccable, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was enjoyable. They were attentive, knowledgeable, and always ready to assist with any requests or questions. The menu at Sabaidee Thai Restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes, each bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. Whether you're a fan of spicy curries, aromatic stir-fries, or refreshing salads, there is something for everyone. The quality of the ingredients used was evident in every bite, and the portion sizes were generous. The ambiance of the restaurant was cozy and inviting, creating a pleasant atmosphere for a meal with friends or a romantic dinner. The attention to detail in the decor added to the overall charm of the place. Overall, I highly recommend Sabaidee Thai Restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. The combination of great Thai food, excellent service, and friendly staff make it a standout choice in Eastbourne. I will definitely be returning to indulge in more of their delicious dishes.

Lovely food & lovely atmosphere. We had prawn Pad Thai & the Sea Bass in Tamarind Sauce, both beautiful & flavoursome, preceeded by crispy squid & dim sum which were also really good, all served by a sweet lady called Pay. Would thoroughly recommened this restaurant if you are lover of Thai food & great service

Erg lekker gegeten hier. Hele lieve bediening en een goede sfeer. Van buiten ziet het er een beetje cheap uit maar van binnen is het erg gezellig. Verder lekker eten en lekkere Thaise biertjes. Het was zeker geslaagd

Had a nice night here food was ok but I have had better pad thai 🙃

Four of us went for a pre theatre meal, each of us ordered a different main course which we shared , wow …delicious all round ….can’t wait to go back again !!

Amviente top,Service top,Essen top. Komme sehr gerne wieder:-)

Absolutely loved our meal at Sabaidee. We had a warm welcome, service was very quick and the food was amazing - stunning flavours and beautifully cooked. Thought the price was very reasonable too. Would thoroughly recommend.

We had the set menu B and a dessert. It was all very enjoyable, the tamarind duck was excellent. Good choice of desserts, reasonably priced wine.

Very friendly and quick service and great food.

I visited here earlier tonight for dinner after spotting it in a lovely area and then my friend, who’s local, recommended it. I arrived early - just in time, before the theatre rush arrived! - and experienced excellent service from start to finish. Attentive, friendly, polite and quick. The food and red wine was so lovely. I went for the pork and prawn dim sum to start and then the roast duck in honey orange sauce with coconut sticky rice which was lovely. I highly recommend and would definitely return - thank you!

Four of us visited here on the final Saturday of the Eastbourne Tennis week and had a good experience. We went for the set menus and share one each of Set Menu A and Set Menu B. All dishes were very good and very good attentive service levels even though the restaurant was full to capacity. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this one.

Living in Eastbourne's Sovereign Harbour, we tend to 'go' local for restaurants. But today we headed into town, and revisited an old haunt we used to come to 10 or more years ago. Sabaidee Thai has always been a favourite, but today's food was more than we remembered.....it was The Best Thai Food ever! We had the lunch menu Option 1. Satay chicken, Spring rolls.....which were gorgeous ! Very tasty. I had Singapore noodles with luscious prawns....the vegetables in this dish were so fresh, crispy and tasty. My husband had Beef in a sweet and sour sauce, which tasted so tasty with pineapple... You also get a drink with the menu, hubby had a Singha beer, I had some fabulous jasmine tea, which normally doesn't come as part of set menu, usually have to pay for tea separately. As a few regular customers came in, we all chatted and we said it was new to us, they confirmed that it is The Best Thai restaurant in Eastbourne and beyond. Totally agree, I can't wait to go back and try other dishes as soon as possible, I can see this being a 'go to' regular now for us. And finally, the bill was a fiver cheaper than any other, more options/choices on the set menu, and larger portions. All in all, we love it...x

Great menu lovely food best to book a table very small cosy place worth a visit

Fantastic thai lunch. The very best thai meal that I have had. The flavours were gorgeous, the ingredients fresh and tasty.
