This is my new go to for Thai food now that I live in Santee. This place is located in a little strip mall and it looks sketchy as hell but I assure you the restaurant is gorgeous and they are professional and they make. Wonderful Thai food very true to the culture. I ordered drunken noodles with chicken and also green curry with chicken at a level four spicy and it was perfect for me and I'm kind of a weenie. That's not their fault but it was wonderful. I ordered takeout on a Sunday night at 8:30 even though they close at nine. My food was made perfect it was fresh and on point.

Ok this is the best Thai restaurant around. They had a name change and it is still amazing. It is consistently fabulous. I ordered the yellow curry with chicken and had them add peas and pineapple. I mean...mhaw chefs kiss! Also the chicken larb was divine. The staff is outstanding and attentive. Ask for Ken he'll take care of you.

Yummy food!! We usually get the pad Thai with zero spice and shrimp. Very flavorful! Service is fast and helpful. Their fried tofu is really good especially the sauce it comes with. Most their food is really delicious

Pretty tasty Thai food. I had a simple dish of veggies and chicken stir fry since I was looking for a healthier low sodium meal. Place is run by a nice Thai family. They have mango sticky rice too which I want to try next.

Went here on a whim for a family's Valentines Day for our fav cuisine -happy we did Were more than pleasantly surprised at the: Service Small touches Food Service: with a smile and automatically keyed in that I needed a kids cup when I went for a booster seat. Small touches: coozie for the beer. Cool metal rice bowls, and real roses on the table Food: best looking satay love seen in a while; peanut sauce on point! Pad Thai had plenty of peanuts and panang was flavorful and spice appropriate Lastly- our picky 11yo asked for a Second portion of Calamari - now that's saying something Well done!

Formerly Sab-E-Lee. Same owner with a fun new name that I was told meant spicy! I loved the Thai decor in the restaurant and the staff were absolutely friendly and attentive to their customers as well as their dishes! Ken was very kind to my friend and me. The quality of their food was authentic and delicious. We ordered the Drunken Noodles, Nahm Tok (beef salad), and Red Curry plus some Thai Tea. All of these were great! I would highly recommend going here for tasty food. Don't sleep on this amazing spot in Santee. Probably the best I've had in this area thus far. Also, great parking and plenty of seating. They are closed Mondays.

This may not be to OG of the Sab-E-Lee restaurants but it's one of the last 2 standing locations with the other being in Rancho Penaquitos. I've been a Sab-E-Lee patron for years having eaten at all the locations and I'd say this cook is not the same as the one in Linda Vista because the spice levels are more palatable. They do caution their customers when ordering spicy but my eyes didn't tear up and my nose didn't run when I got a number six papaya salad. Our party of two decided to feast and get the papaya salad for an appetizer, along with the Tom kha soup which has a nifty little fire contraption to keep it hot. We usually opt for curry but this time we tried the king curry which is curry stir fry. Instead of a soup it was a highly concentrated version of the curry in a sauce. We also got the pad Thai. Which is good but not necessarily outstanding or their best dish. I would definitely re order all of these items. In the past I have had their fried rice which is very delicious. The fried rice has a char taste to it that you can only get from a very very hot wok. Difficult to achieve that taste at home. I recommend one of their fried rice dishes. Located in an unpretentious location with a coffee bean drive thru, nail salon/barber shop and a bar. It's a nice quiet little place to enjoy dinner. In the last couple of years they have renovated the inside of their restaurant making it a great place to invite family and friends for a Thai dinner. You won't be disappointed.
