The Best Thai in York
The Sangthai is a really REALLY good restaurant! Hidden away off the main road through Escrick, it feels exclusive and upmarket straightaway, and you are given a warm and friendly welcome by the staff as soon as you step in the door.
This is the perfect place to come with friends for great food and a catch up, or come for a romantic meal for two. We've spent the past two New Year's Eves at the Sangthai - and will probably do the same again this year. The food is absolutely delicious - we always go for the mixed starters to have a bit of everything on offer! And for main course ... well my other half and I have worked our way around the menu and finally come up with firm favourites - mine is the prawn yellow curry and his the beef, peanut and potato curry.
It is quite expensive (usually end up about £25-£30 a head with wine and starters) but totally worth it as both food and service are excellent - it's a real treat every time. Never had a bad experience here and while other restaurants come and go, this stays on our list of favourites. Always fairly busy (another good sign!), I would certainly recommend booking - especially Fridays and Saturdays.
