The Original Sab-E-Lee

"Very good. However the entree prices are not including rice, which is about $2 extra. As for the hotness scale, the waitress said that "3" is medium in their cooking on a scale of 1 to 10. I went with 3 and it was on the hot side and I usually like things a bit spicy and not bland. It was a bit over my limit. Next time I will probably go with 2."

"I went there on Sunday by myself since i would like to try Thai food at this restaurant because whenever i go to wonderful sushi which is next few steps away, this spot is always busy. Finally I ordered thuam yum soup which is one of my favorite Thai food. A server asked what level of spicy I want for this soup, I said medium spicy which is level 3 I found after talking with another server during my complaint of food being too spicy. Anyway, food was ok and very large, but I skim most of spicy part of soup off and put them on my plate. It is ok to be trying spicy food as long as you are expecting it. But when you order the food there is expectation on the taste of the dish being served because you have tried the same food before. But with this kind of spicy level, there should be more detail explanation and at least warning post on the table since I almost got my stomach burned and upset after the first taste. Also I requested rice to smooth the taste but server forgot and had to tell again although they must see me remove the spicy part and struggle to eat."

"Yum! Decided on Thai for lunch and this didn’t disappoint! I only wish they had some type of lunch combo which they didn’t offer, so ordered American broccoli (choice of Chinese broccoli too) with tofu and ordered a side of rice. They informed me spicy level 3 is medium and I went and ordered spicy level 8, that didn’t disappoint!!! Their spice game is good!!!"

"First time at this location, I've only been to the Linda Vista location. I've had many of the dishes at Sab-E-Lee. It's funny because when my finance and I sat down the table right next to us said "the Linda vista location is better!" I didn't want this to deter us. Plus I've been craving Thai food! Don't forget cash only! We split a Thai tea boba which was great! Can't mess that up. I went with tofu pad thai, level 2... I wanted to 3 but it's hard to get the right spice level here. I know there is no measurement in the kitchen it depends on who is cooking it. I've ordered 3 before and could handle it but other times I'm uncomfortably dying. This time the 2 had no spice but it was still really good pad Thai. It hit the spot, I cleaned off my plate. My fiancé ordered drunken noodles with tofu level 10, he's really into spice. The waitress did a double take and asked if he wanted 10 for sure. The dish came out and he wasn't even sweating! He even gave me a fork full of his noodles to prove it wasn't spicy. I was able to handle it! It was definitely not a 10, it was spicy but it didn't kill me as a level 10 should. The noddles were good though and flavor was there. Overall other than the continued spice issue at both locations the food is so legit. This is one of the Thai restaurants I would always think of when I crave Thai. Will be back this location is very convenient to me now."
