Editor’s Note

Last updated 21 Jul 2026

Our take: Somtam Saklai, a long-standing Thai eatery, has garnered a reputation for authentic flavours and attentive service, even after its move from Golden Mile Complex.

Reviewers consistently praise the freshness of ingredients and generous portions, with the raw prawns with seafood sauce being a particular highlight.

The Tom Yum soup seafood and basil pork omelette rice also receive positive mentions for their taste and size.

While the majority of experiences are positive, there are occasional reports of inconsistency, such as overcooked fried garlic pork and overly salty Krapow rice.

However, these seem to be isolated incidents, with the service staff frequently commended for their friendliness and attentiveness.

We think Somtam Saklai is a reliable choice for those seeking genuine Thai cuisine at an affordable price point.

The 'wok hey' in their fried kuey tiao and the flavorful boat noodles are also noted.

Be prepared for potential queues during peak lunch hours due to limited seating.

We'd recommend trying their signature raw prawns and the som tum with salted egg.

A solid option for a satisfying Thai meal, especially if you're in the downtown-core area.
