If they delivered I would order more, but that's on me for being too lazy for pick up some times. The food is always very good

Diner Review β„–4

Best sushi you'll ever get at these prices. Nothing even close in price after COVID

Diner Review β„–5

It is one of the best places in the area for makizushi and specialty gourmet rolls. Too bad they only serve take-out now post-pandemic. I really do miss the sit down lunch time.

Note, they are running take out only for the time being.

Sushi Thai is only doing take out, but I have been going here for YEARS!! (In fact, they know me by name.) Their food is always fresh and delicious. I have referred many of my friends as their prices are reasonable and truely the best quality in our area. Highly recommend!!

It was a great experience, glad to find somewhere local that does food this way! Wish they could have dine-in services.

Diner Review β„–18

This was my first time here. The food was amazing! It's only take out. You order at the door. Staff was very friendly. I will tell my friends they need to try this place! I will definitely be back soon. Prices are really affordable.

Samran is a locally-owned sushi restaurant just north of the Belleville fountain. With delicious and poignant flavors, peak presentation, and friendly owners; this is a neighborhood-local favorite.

We shared 5 rolls between two of us and had about a roll's worth of leftovers- New York, red dragon, crunchy spicy tuna (which was $1 cheaper than the regular spicy tuna, a nice surprise at only $4.95 with jam-packed flavor), fried Philadelphia (with a unique way of frying it- my date said it was the best way he'd ever tried it cooked), and an ebi mango (the freshest mango I've had all season, it was refreshing).

I've experienced in the past from another sushi restaurant that the sushi tastes best when dining in compared to taking out or delivery. Though I haven't dined in here, the sushi is spectacular when taken out. It makes me wonder what it tastes like when dining in. 🀀

I'm sad that my first visit was just last fall (2022) and I missed the opportunity to dine in. Pictures of the interior look super cute and make me feel nostalgic. Hoping that they reopen. 🀞

Diner Review β„–23

Great place to eat. Highly recommend!!!

Diner Review β„–24

This is a small restaurant, but has the best sushi in the metro area! Thai food is excellent as well. Out of all sushi restaurants even the buffets with sushi, they are not touching Sushi Thai by Samran!!

Diner Review β„–25

Hands down - the BEST sushi ever!! Highly recommend the playboy roll!!

Diner Review β„–26

It was take out only and I had a little trouble figuring out where to park and how to get food. The pad thai was delicious!

First time ordering Suhi from here and it was excellent, the staff was great I will definitely be back

Diner Review β„–36

Literally the best sushi I’ve ever had! The quality was top notch and portion size was great too especially for the price. Will be back again!

Diner Review β„–37

Currently only doing takeout only and their price are very low compared to some thai places I've seen. I ordered the yellow curry and quantity wise it was kind of small but the quality of the food and the taste is amazing! I've had thai food from chicago and the suburbs but this has to be some of the best curry I've had in a while!

Diner Review β„–38

Because the menu features both Thai and Japanese food, I expected it to be weird, which it sort of was, but it was also fairly good.

Diner Review β„–39

Small, family owned, very kind people.

Diner Review β„–40

This hole-in the wall is an absolute treasure! The owners are very friendly and always prepare the best food at great prices. It is my favorite sushi restaurant I've ever been to.

I've ordered from them since 2010 (around that time) and the experience has been great every time.

Amazing friendly service and best sushi around. Pad thai is so good. I highly recommend this place to all.

Diner Review β„–62

I love their food already fresh and good.

Diner Review β„–63

By far the best sushi place around. I've come here for years and have never had a bad experience. I'd almost bet money that if you love sushi, you'll have a hard time going anywhere else after Sushi Thai!

Diner Review β„–64

Ordered the sushi and sashimi for one... when I arrived to pick up my food there was no salad or soup... one or the other is required with the dish... when I asked where the item is I was told that’s only for dine-in, there haven’t been any dining in at this restaurant for almost a year! clearly this was a LIE... your charging me for it I expect my money’s worth. Dishonest business and I wouldn’t recommend to anyone nor will I spend my money year again.

Diner Review β„–65

Hands down best Sushi you can get around here. It might be a little more pricy than other sushi places, but treat yourself, and spend the extra 10$ or so if you can swing it.

Diner Review β„–66

Love it!!.. my favorite place to go for sushi, Thai and rolls.

Diner Review β„–70

It's just delicious, if they keep the prices as far they can is just perfect

Diner Review β„–71

Unfortunately, as of 10-21-20, they have no dine in...even though Covid was lifted in our region months ago. You he to order everything on line,and pick it up curbside.

Diner Review β„–72

Diner Review β„–73

Delicious sushi at a great price. Very fresh and good quality.

Diner Review β„–74

Best sushi in the Metro East( verified by a Japanese national). Clean, and simple interior. The owners are beyond welcoming. Coming in and seeing their smiling faces is one of my favorite parts of the experience.

The sushi is amazing, but let’s not forget the Thai food! As both owners are from Thailand, it goes without saying, that the Thai food is exceptional too. I no longer live in the Saint Louis area, though when I’m visiting, I always stop here.

A true hidden gem πŸ’Ž

Diner Review β„–75

They are always so friendly and prompt. The food is amazing and well priced. Definitely one of my favorite places.

Diner Review β„–76

The folks that run this place are very nice and the food is absolutely incredible. This restaurant is one of those instances where the local hole in the wall blows chain restaurants out of the water! Their chicken Pad Thai is the best I've ever had and I genuinely love coming back here. 10/10 cannot recommend enough.

Diner Review β„–77

Been coming here about 4 or 5 years now. THE BEST MOST DELICIOUS PAD THAI around!!! We love the thin noodles compared to others who use the thicker kind. Tried all surrounding Thai food places and they were gross. Even ones in STL. This is the spot. Even the sushi is super deliciousπŸ˜‹

Diner Review β„–78

Their red curry is amazing and they offer some of the best sushi I've tried in the area. I highly recommend the Samran roll and any of the dragon rolls.

Diner Review β„–79

Best sushi around. Small mom and pop place on the corner. Great service. Far better priced too, even though it taste better than the expensive places. Even their food presentation is neat! The Thai Food is also worth trying, but I love the sushi so much even if I'm craving thai I get sushi instead. I usually take the thai to go. This is my favorite sushi stop by far.

Diner Review β„–91

Nice family owned vibe! Their food is excellent and not too expensive. I never would have thought Thai food and sushi would be as good a combination as it is until I first went to Sushi Thai! It has room to sit down as well as pick up options for both when you have time to sit and eat or when you're on the go.

Diner Review β„–99

My husband and I have traveled all over the world and I've lived in Japan for over 5 years. I am happy to say that this place made us nostalgic for Japan! It's the perfect little hole in the wall place for delicious sushi made the way it was meant to be! The prices are great, the food AMAZING and both the Jasmin and Thai tea were wonderful. The employees were so friendly and I'm looking forward to making this a regular restaurant in our new neighbourhood! Thank you for existing for this traveling couple longing for great sushi far from home!

Diner Review β„–162

I don't know how this place has high ratings. It is not clean! You can literally just look behind the counter and tell! I ate 1 bite of sweet potato sushi and threw up! It smelled like it had be cross contaminated with raw fish. I looked at the place and knew right away it was nasty, but it was icy and cold, so I took the risk but I should have just followed my first mind and passed!

Diner Review β„–163

Beyond delicious! The workers are so joyful and well spirited. Good prices too! Loved it. For a small local business they are doing stupendous.

Diner Review β„–164

Some of the best sushi I've ever had.

Diner Review β„–165

Sushi and Thai food, just as the name implies. The sushi is always fresh and delicious. I usually get Pad Thai as well, and I tastes as good as any dedicated Thai restaurant. Prices are very resonable, and the value is excellent. They do not have fountain drinks, but they always have tea and lemonade as well as canned sodas and thai iced tea. My family frequents this shop.

Diner Review β„–166

Sushi prices are very cheap and affordable, and is quite delicious!

Diner Review β„–167

This is the best sushi in Belleville! Reasonable prices, nice sized sushi rolls, amazing service EVERY TIME. Best part, they sell awesome Thai food as well! Fish is fresh and always great. I visit this little restaurant regularly. They only have about 10 tables, so get there early. They've got a killer lunch special, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great sushi in the area. You won't regret it!
