Little hole in the wall with a great cheap and fresh breakfast sandwich

Diner Review №4

Amazing food special the best pad Thai i have so far 🥰🥰I come here just to have it and also the owner is really nice🥰

Diner Review №5

We had 14 and 16 on the menu, and it was delicious. Owner was really sweet as well! Definitely coming back

Diner Review №6

Even with my absurdly high standards,
I was extremely happy with the Thai (Pad Thai) and Cambodian(Amok fish) food here. If you’re only getting doughnuts you’re missing out on one of the very few delicious authentic homemade Asian eateries in Baton Rouge. One important detail to keep in mind is that this is not fast food - each dish is made from scratch and therefore takes some time to prepare. Calling ahead with your order may be wise, but if you didn’t, it is definitely worth the wait.

The lady was so sweet !

Diner Review №9

Great experience and food

Diner Review №10

First the good: the glaze on the donut holes was top notch. They have some kind of lemony flavor that is just fantastic.

Why did I have to remove a star? Its just too expensive. I did not expect to spend over $30 on breakfast for me and 2 kids at a donut shop.

Diner Review №11

10x spice was delicious! Haven’t tried the donuts yet, but I definitely will next time. Very friendly people!

Diner Review №12

We ordered pad Thai and pad see ew take out for lunch. It was the best Thai I have ever had in Baton Rouge. I go to Dallas and always get Thai food because BR Thai food scene is weak at best. Until trying Sambath Donuts. Wow! Absolutely delicious. My husband picked it up so I can’t speak to the atmosphere but he said the woman working there was so kind to our son and offered him some donut holes. What a sweet gesture. We will be back whenever our Thai cravings hit, but do not sleep on this place.
Only con is they aren’t open for dinner! 10/10 recommend.

Diner Review №13

The BEST fried rice, especially if you are on a diet, or not on a diet 👍
I highly recommend her home-made cooking, feels and taste like home-made.

Diner Review №14

Diner Review №15

Sambath is hands down the BEST place to get a variety of AUTHENTIC Asian cuisine - Thai, Cambodian, Vietnamese! The owner is Cambodian and pours herself into her cooking. You can taste the pride and quality ingredients in her food! The Pad Kra Pao is superb and the breakfast is always fresh! If you’re still reading this, then please run (or call and place your order ahead of time) to Sambath!

A wonderful little shop right on Essen Lane. The owner is amazingly kind, the pastries are delicious and fresh, and the prices are good. Also, they have breakfast foods and serve lunch orders of Chinese, Thai, and Cambodian dishes. This was our first visit but we will definitely be back!

Diner Review №41

Diner Review №42

Now, I have had a lot of experience with donuts and pastries... The best apple fritter I've ever had, the best boudin kolache I've ever had (She told me she makes the boudin herself- Cajun stamp of approval on that) it's not like the most spicy boudin but it is delicious 🤤. Besides food, the service is wonderful, I feel like I've been cared for rather than just served. My new cheat day spot for sure!! Can't wait to come try their Asian lunch foods!!

Diner Review №43

Great food and quick service

Diner Review №44

I’ve ordered the Beef/Chicken Pad See Ew for the first time here after just having a craving for Thai Food. I came here after remembering a food review and heard they had amazing options. And yes, this place did NOT disappoint. Beyond solid food and amazing service given.

Diner Review №45

This was my first time having Thai food and it was great! Highly recommend the Mango Salad for those hot days, so light and refreshing. The owner was very nice and cooked the food to order herself. Will definitely be back with friends and family to try the breakfast options and more authentic Thai food.

Diner Review №46

Diner Review №47

Hey Sambath I stopped by there this morning and got three donuts and one milk, donuts were great, just wanted to let you know to check you cooler where you keep the milk, the milk was very warm and sour, just for your regular customers, I'm from Gonzales and had a doctors appointment is the reason I didn't go back.

Diner Review №48

Very pleasant place family oriented

Diner Review №49

Diner Review №51

Diner Review №52

Skip the donuts and head straight for the Food, this place is a lil gem!! We had the Mango Salad which is so fresh and amazing! The Tom yum soup is probably the best I've ever had. We also had #13. Everything was sooo good!

Diner Review №53

First experience was awesome, food was cooked fresh and tastes amazing, big portions for the price too. 10/10 would recommend

Diner Review №54

Terrible customer service!
This morning, I ordered two breakfast sandwiches over the phone and was told it'd be ten minutes. I waited ten minutes, walked over, and the sandwiches weren't made at all. The boy behind the counter had completely forgotten. I said I'd wait another ten minutes and come back, because I very much wanted breakfast, and when I came back, the sandwiches still WERE NOT MADE. he said he thought i'd changed my mind, when I clearly expressed that I'd be returning. worst customer service experience I've had in a looonggg time. And I was still charged for the two kolaches I settled for out of complete starvation.

Diner Review №55

5/5. Customer service was amazing and the donuts are even better. I got the sausage egg and cheese on a croissant and a couple of donuts. It was delicious

Diner Review №56

Great service

Diner Review №57

Diner Review №58

I’ve lived here 3 years and can’t believe I didn’t stop before! Pad thai and donuts are both delicious and totally fresh, even right before closing. Excellent service. Their staff are so kind!!

Diner Review №59

This place is such a respite from the regular donut shops scattered around! The family that owns the place are great fun and quite generous! If you're looking for a good spot for breakfast on the go, stop in and try the kolaches🤤

Diner Review №60

Diner Review №82

I was introduced to Sambath when I first visited BR and couldn’t believe how good these donuts were. Now that BR has become one of my favorite places, I never miss a chance to stop off and get a few (or a dozen for the family). These donuts are truly some of the best donuts I have had and I yes, I would put them head to head with Krispy Kreme.

Diner Review №83

They were closing at 2 but still let us order. The owner was so nice. We will definitely be visiting here again!!

Diner Review №98

Sambath has fantastic food and the people that work there are equally fantastic. The donuts are amazing and so is the Thai food. The Pad Thai is their most popular dish and for good reason. I also really love their Cambodian and Khmer dishes. No other restaurant in Baton Rouge offers theses dishes. I need to try them all!

Amazing donuts! I've been craving donuts similar to Krispy Kreme, but all of the stores near me closed down. Sambath's Donuts hits the same spot. They nearly melt in your mouth. Great donuts and friendly owner. I have zero complaints.

Diner Review №108

Stopped by for donuts one morning and happened to be there on the first day of their new lunch menu roll out. Not only does Sambath have great donuts, the lunch is delicious! Everything was made to order. Mr. Wes and Ms. Sam couldn't have offered better service and food! Next time you're in the area and is looking for donuts and a little something extra, skip Shipley's and stop by Sambath's Donuts & More. You won't regret it!

Diner Review №109

Sambath Kolaches are the best in Baton Rouge! Ya'll stop giving your money to Mary Lee for hot dogs wrapped in biscuit dough! Sambath's has the absolute best kolaches in Baton Rouge!!
