Their food was OK they kind of move slow even though there’s not a lot of customers their spring rolls were disappointing all you taste is the lettuce and nothing else
Food was good, but there was a little bit of egg shell in the pad thai. Their three out of ten star spicy was quite spicy. Heavy on the bamboo in the panang curry. Great service though.
It looks dark inside, they need more lights. The food tastes amazing and the servers are nice. Plenty of parking spots.
We chose to dine in at Sam's while passing through Merced. Both the service and the dishes we ordered were excellent! The service was personable, and attentive without being pushy, very genuine. The food we ordered was some of the more authentic tasting Thai we've had in a while and was very much enjoyed. Lots of flavor in the dishes and good spice but not overwhelming. I will acknowledge the building is older but we aren't there for architecture. Simple, quick, easy, satisfying! I wouldn't ask for more.
Saturday night at 630, and able to get a table even though google told me busier than usual. Food was amazing, servers were very nice and they appeared to have a a lot of take out going out the door too. Spice was just how I liked it. Will definitely be back.
Awesome Thai food. Love the Thai tea and Laht Nar! However this visit I asked for extra daily and my Laht Nar had zero spice. I could and did add spice to it but I prefer it to be cooked like that for a more robust spicy, not superficial on top of my food. I'll give them a pass this time because most other visits no problem.
The BEST SERVICE ever! Food was 5 stars as well. But I can't get over how sweet Sam is. Today was our first time but this will be a regular spot for our family.
I love Sams! Sam is such a great guy and always makes you feel at home...the food tastes so great.
The food was very flavorful, but you might want to pick a spice level a few numbers below what you'd pick elsewhere...either that or there was some miscommunication. Staff was friendly. Restaurant could use some repair. Ceiling and floor tile looked like they needed replaced. We didn't ask, but the heater wasn't working or was turned off, so the restaurant was very cold. I'd been here once before and things were different. I'd say it is worth visiting if you're into HOT Thai food or are fine with eating things like Scorpion and Ghost Peppers...or pick something very low on the Ten Scale. Most of us went with 3...just because it seemed like a safe start. We're used to eating Jalapeños and other medium peppers and it was uncomfortably hot.
Overall ok. I think they didn't try to make it authentic but make it more suitable to local taste. I didn't put high expectation. The interior though need a lot of work. It looks old and ceilings have water mark.
