The Thai word ‘Sabai’ translates simply as ‘relaxed’, the perfect description of this Brighton gastrobar where the urban cool of London on Sea is matched to the ethnic charm of the Land of Smiles. Bringing a taste of Phuket’s beach bars and Bangkok’s most upmarket restaurants to the UK, Sabai is all about chilling out, South East Asian style – a fact which is patently clear from the silk floor cushions, cocktail menu and warm, smiling welcome. The deep red and dark wood, gold and green interior is as beautiful as Sabai’s freshly cooked, authentic food, MSG free and made using local ingredients where possible and imported Thai herbs and spices where essential. Because everything is made to order, special requests are welcomed.

    Lovely restaurant setting. Staff were attentive and friendly. Unfortunately it was a bit cold but we were by the door. Good vegetarian selection, pretty big portions and we all enjoyed our meals (table of 6).

    We were welcomed as soon as we arrived and our pre booked table was waiting for us. The staff were friendly and attentive. The atmosphere tranquil and relaxing, even when it became busy. The food was out of this world and great value for money. This is our new favourite Thai restaurant.

    Das Restaurant braucht dringend eine Renovierung und vielleicht sich einen richtigen Koch. Alles schmeckte beliebig und ohne Gewürz und das bei einem Thai. Nur der nette Service rettete die Punkte.
