| - This spot used to be an aight Mexican joint, but it is now a SPECTACULAR Thai food restaurant. Besides the decor being clean, simple, with soft thai music in the background to set the mood -since I can't eat the decor- the FOOD + SERVICE were friggin' amazing. The staff was friendly, knowledgable and eager to lend a hand, but not overbearing. The food... what can I say? That was the ultimate cake topper. We ordered the appetizer sampler -consisted of thai toast, egg rolls, chicken satay, fried wontons AND they swapped our the fish cake for tofu for me!- every morsel was delectable. The appetizer also came out with 3 homemade sauces - a sweet and sour sauce, a hand-ground peanut sauce -a lot of places purchase or shortcut by using peanut butter ... so groSS- and a refreshing cucumber salad. All three were mouth-watering and perfect. For entrees we had the garlic shrimp + green curry, they were outstanding. The thai tea was real brewed tea with coconut milk, NOT half and half. This place does not skimp or shortcut on ingredients, I really respect and appreciate that. I've been to Thailand almost every other year since I have relatives there and the food from E-San Sab-Sab was about as authenticate as you can get. It was fragrant, the flavors were vibrant, it was exactly like being in Thailand. They also have a lunch buffet Mon-Fri for $7.77 but I have to check that out, definitely a great way for someone to try/check out Thai cuisine if they aren't familiar with it. Top notch food with service to match? 5 stars, baby. If you're looking for authentic, delicious thai, this is my top recommendation in the Valley.
