"Wow, this is definitely some great Thai food! There are so many different Thai places in Pittsburgh, but this place is one of the most hole in the wall type spots I've heard of. It's a decent ways away from downtown, but not too far. The food quality is excellent and the prices are pretty reasonable. Tonight, I ordered the pad Thai with tofu and Thai custard with sweet sticky rice. The pad Thai itself was quite good. Some of the noodles are a bit clumped together, but that could have been just due to travel time. They use an ample amount of tofu, not too little or too much. Most of the pieces were tasty and flavorful, but a few were a bit tough. Their sauce has a slight red hue to it (similar to Thai and Noodle Outlet). But, I prefer this sauce since it's not overpoweringly sweet. Nice crunch from sprouts.Would have liked a few more peanuts or a stronger nutty flavor. Still, very good, and they read my note saying no green onions. Portion was ample, more than enough for a meal or a meal for a hungry person. Their Thai custard was phenomenal. Local Thai places like this make amazing desserts! It tasted homemade and makes you feel warm inside. The custard was perfectly sweet, and had a slight edge which was caramelized (which was extra amazing). The rice was well cooked and soaked in coconut milk. Would have appreciated a bit more coconut milk on top. The packaging for this dessert was also interesting (a container inside the standard box). All in all, the food at Sawasdee is delicious. They make a solid Pad Thai and the Thai custard is top notch. Prices are in line with other places and the portion sizes are ample. Haven't tried the sushi, but they also have a sushi menu (thus the name). Check it out for some no frills and delicious Thai food in the South Hills!"
