Solid if arguably “fairly standard” Thai dishes again win a good rating for this branch of Torquil & Juree Chidwick’s small group, which they’ve created over 20 years on the promise of ‘The True Taste of Thailand’. Top Tip – competitively priced lunch and pre-theatre deal for £17.95.

Limited but good all-round feedback for this modern Thai restaurant – part of Torquil and Juree Chidwick’s Midlands-based small group (this is the only one outside Birmingham). Menu options include a pre-theatre deal, as well as a bottomless lunch option at weekends.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

Have you eaten at Sabai Sabai?

Owner's description

Husband and wife team, Torquil and Juree Chidwick, first opened Sabai Sabai as a small, cosy, family-run Thai restaurant in Moseley 10 years ago. Proving a real hit with the locals they opened the Harborne restaurant, oozing a subtle eastern sophistication with carved wooden benches and low inviting lighting. Mastering contemporary chic and bringing a taste of Thailand to Stratford upon Avon.
