Definitely worth the drive to Tagaytay! Their Thai food is super good and authentic. As someone who’s tried authentic Thai food before, I can honestly say this place is legit. No wonder, Thai pala talaga kasi yung Chef.
Most of the dishes were spicy, which I personally love, but you can also ask them to tone it down if you prefer. The place has a cool alfresco garden vibe, perfect for chill bonding.
Highly recommend their creamy salted egg prawn pasta. 100/10!
First time finding truly authentic Thai food in the Philippines! They have Khao Soi huhu I really missed Chiang Mai. You can really taste the rich curry. It honestly felt like I was back in Chiang Mai again. Even the Thai Milk Tea tasted so good, just like the ones we had from the Cha Tu Chak Market. I’ve been missing Thailand so much, and this restaurant made us relive those moments again.
The restaurant is run by Thai and Filipino owners themselves, and they personally cook and serve the food. They were incredibly hospitable and we even had a nice little chitchat with them! Sawasdeee!
The place was beautiful, especially at night. Its an open-air setup, which made the atmosphere even better. They have their own cat and dog in the restaurant and both were super friendly.
11/10! Definitely coming back 💗
Khob khun khaaa 🙏💗
Sabai Sabai sounds like a gem — authentic Thai cuisine prepared by a chef who truly brings the flavors of Thailand to the table, paired with fair pricing that matches the quality. That combination of genuine culinary roots and thoughtful value is what makes a restaurant stand out, because you’re not just paying for food, you’re paying for an experience that feels real and satisfying.
If you’re exploring Thai dining, dishes like Pad Thai, Tom Yum soup, and Green Curry are classics that reveal the chef’s skill and authenticity. And if Sabai Sabai balances those with reasonable prices, it’s likely a place where both casual diners and food enthusiasts feel at home.
Ps: Sabai sabai It's NOT a traditional classic restaurant, but rather a place with a garden-like ambiance; however, the food is truly delicious.
Went here bcos of marv's vlog as in the next morning! Cos max is his good friend and a good cook. I really miss the authentic pad thai!
Place: very nice! Feels like i am eating in a park. I know they had put so much effort in this, that's why I am feeling a bit worried when it rains. I really wish the resto will flourish! Maybe they'll have a roof in some area someday... The open concept is cute really, just that it'll be hard during the rainy season.
Food: i love the pad thai! I ate this during bfast so the saltiness is just enough. But maybe i would want it to be little saucy if i'll eat it at lunch or dinner. Maybe they could make two types? Like authentic and signature? Just a lil suggestion because i will really go back here for pad thai!
Thai Milk tea is good!
Mango sticky rice is good too, but just a suggestion, to put a bit more pandan or flavor on the sticky rice (i know it's real thai sticky rice) also, your choice of mango is very good!!! just the right ripeness.
Overall, this is a very good thai resto. The staff were nice, attentive and very hard working. Kuya Max served the mango sticky rice lol thank you po!
Kudos on the online menu as well! That was unexpected it was well presented, shows that they really worked hard for everything!
I almost forgot to mention, even if it's an open space they have outlets too! Nice!
