Very disappointing. I ordered mock duck pad thai and got a pile of spaghetti noodles, not traditional Thai rice noodles, with small bits of sliced onion, a tablespoon or two of peanuts, and a fairly small number of pad thai chunks added to the noodles. The flavor of the sauce was good, but basically I paid $14 for not much more than a pile of spaghetti. My friend got pad thai at a different Midtown Global Market restaurant (I think it was Pham’s); hers looked delicious and came with an envelope containing a generous number of green leafy veggies that she could add as she wished. I don’t plan to order from Sabbai Express again.

Overpriced for not so great food. drunken noodles were bland, food is unappetizing and not authentic. The bubble teas are tasty but i don’t recommend getting food here. There are much better places in global market to get food

Terrible inedible food, not authentic Thai. We ordered Drunken Noodles and a green curry. Both were extremely salty and lacking standard ingredients. Drunken Noodles did not come with wide ride noodles (instead used fettuccine) or egg or basil. The green curry had no eggplant and was too salty to eat. Total waste of money. Do not eat here.

Excellent tofu pad thai! Clearly made hot and fresh to order. The tofu was spongy and flavorful. The noodles were perfectly cooked. I loved the amount of egg in this dish. I devoured this meal. A great work lunch.

My favorite pad thai (mock duck, spice level 5 is my go-to) I’ve ever had. Delicious, quick & friendly service, and love spending time at Midtown Global Market. I usually even have enough for leftovers to bring home!

Decided to visit on a whim and ordered Tom Yum and bubble tea to share with a friend. And MAN it was delicious. The boba was flavorful, and the tom yum excellent and a really large size, easily lasting one person 2 or more meals.
One warning: this place actually caters to asian spice levels, so unless you have HIGH HIGH HIGH spice tolerance, I’d suggest treating the level 3 as hot, level 2 as medium, and level 1 as mild (which is not the same as no spice). I have a decent spice tolerance and liked the level 3, but 3 was at my white friend’s top limit. Keep that in mind when ordering.
I definitely am planning to come again!

I got the vegatable stir fry and the coconut juice. It was excellent, they have a 0-5 spicyness scale. I did 1.5 which was perfect enough to add flavor for me. The staff was really kind and the whole building is really cool.

Good food, AMAZING bubble tea.
I ordered the drunken noodles with mock duck and no eggs, and I’m pretty dang happy. There is a fair amount of food for the price, although the veggies are lacking in quantity, and the taste is excellent. Noodles are cooked well and veggies seem pretty fresh to me.
The spice is serious. They don’t mess around here. My dish was a three star, and at any other MN restaurant it would be a 5 star. Really, really grateful for spicy food here!
Two complaints: the drunken noodles did just not have enough vegetables. There are literally 11 veggies in the whole dish split between carrots, cauliflower & broccoli. The second thing is the straws for the bubble tea are too small for the pearls, which is a first world bummer.

Love this place, go here often for their Shrimp and Tofu Pad-Ti or their Shrimp and/or Tofu Green Curry. Love it all, oh and I love their bubble teas – yummy! Highly recommend to anyone who wants great food. The facility in Minneapolis is within the Global Market building. You should check it out the stores near them are also nice I’ve purchased a few items from the surrounding stores as well.

We were desperate for a thai fix on a Sunday afternoon and this was a great choice. The medium was a perfect heat level. I’d suggest the Cambodian Lo Mein which was excellent, also passable Pad Thai and Fried Rice dishes. Perfectly solid food in a great location in the Midtown Global Market. Staff was super friendly and provided extra limes and condiments. A great choice!
