" Shai Yo Thai has quickly become one of my favorite Thai spots since moving to the area. The flavors are delightfully vibrant, particularly in their Shrimp Pad Thai. The owner even took the time to come around and chat with guests, which was a lovely personal touch. My only complaint would be that I found the fried rice to have a bit too much garlic for my taste. Regardless, I can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Shai Yo Thai is my go-to place for some comfort food. The curries here remind me of my travels in Thailand. The flavors are spot on and the spice levels can be adjusted to fit everyone's palate. The service has always been friendly, and I've had no issues with receiving the food promptly. The only critique I would have is that the portions, while generous, can sometimes lead to a dilemma of leftovers that are just too tempting to resist. Overall, a fantastic spot for a casual dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" I brought a group of friends to Shai Yo Thai last weekend, and we all had an enjoyable experience! The food was outstanding, full of robust flavors. Everyone raved about the Tom Kha soup, which was the highlight of our meal. The service was efficient and friendly. The only minor downside was the somewhat cramped seating during busy hours. Overall, though, I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for authentic Thai cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so much about Shai Yo Thai, I decided to finally give it a try. The food was solid — I particularly liked the Pad See Ew, which had a nice, authentic taste to it. However, I'm not sure how much I liked the dessert; the fried ice cream felt too sweet for my taste. Service was decent but could improve; we had to wait a while for refills. Overall, I enjoyed my visit but feel there’s still room for improvement. " (*Curated Review*)

" Shai Yo Thai was recommended to me by a friend, and now I’m returning the favor! The authenticity is incredibly impressive. I ordered the Green Curry and it was just the right balance of spice and taste! The spring rolls had the perfect crunch, and I'm so happy they have ample vegan options! My friends were also pleased with their meals. The atmosphere was busy but inviting, and the service was swift. Overall, a fantastic experience to share with friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I am always looking for authentic Thai food, and Shai Yo Thai did not disappoint. The flavors were amazing! I tried their spring rolls and they were crispy and delicious. I also appreciated that they offer a variety of vegan options on the menu. The staff was friendly, but the check took longer than I expected to arrive. Overall, a great spot for a casual dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been to many Thai restaurants, and Shai Yo Thai stands out! The flavors in the food are incredibly authentic and delicious. The Pad Thai has a depth of flavor that few can rival. The atmosphere is colorful and creates a lovely dining environment. I would definitely recommend to anyone craving good Thai food. However, during the busy hours, it does feel a bit cramped.
