Information:Restaurant name? Satang Thai Cuisine (CLOSED) City?Findlay, OH Location?Tiffin Ave., where 12 joins up Type?Thai Reviews:Josh Woodward rates this 10 / 10: SAD NEWS: Satang closed its doors in June 2008. This has been a good year for Asian food fans in Findlay. There's a brand new Thai place that just opened Monday called Satang. It's on Tiffin Avenue where 12 joins up - right next to Mr. Lee's, and in the same spot that the other Chinese restaurant used to be. They have excellent food, and they really spiffed up the place. The spring rolls and the Gai Him Ma Pan were amazing. The curry was good, though too sweet for my taste. Update, 4/3/06: This is now officially my favorite restaurant in Findlay. They recently overhauled their menu. The "Gai Him Ma Pan" seems to be gone, but the "Rad Na" is a new favorite. The "Ka Prow" is great if you don't mind crying from the spice. And of course, the usual pad thai is tasty. Just stay away from the fresh spring rolls. ;) Update, 4/15/06: They have a new item called Gai Ra Yong that's now my favorite. It's breaded white meat chicken chunks in a brown chili onion sauce. So very yum.Update, August 2006: They seem to have a new cook. There's a smaller menu and it's not quite as brilliant as before, but still crazy-good. Update, January 2007: The food's gotten consistently better, including the amazing Rama in Jacuzzi. Unfortunately, service has been very slow the past few months. It's not unusual to wait 30+ minutes after ordering to get food, even when not busy. The wait for the check can be pretty long, too. Hopefully they staff up to speed this up. Update, March 2007: They seem to have the kinks in service ironed out. I've been into the Panang Curry lately.
hey Josh, I know you and the wife are going on vacation but when you return would you like some Thai peppers???? I have a plant and I would be more then happy to share some peppers with you. I basically dry them , crush them and then use them in my chile. sometimes in my spaghetti sauce for extra zip ! :-) , salsa, whatever..... You can use them in stir fry as well, that is how my friend's family (who gave me the pepper plant ) uses them. THEY ARE VERY HOT !!! ok, well, let me know, and I can bring some to Amici some night when you are there. By the way, good show last night! Ok, well, take care, have a safe and happy time ! -Peg
mmm I agree. Satang Thai is one of the best Thai restaurants I've ever been to...and I've been to several places in NYC, Chicago, Cleveland, etc. The pad thai was superb.
I just ate at Kona Town on Tiffin. I had a cajun burger that was yummy! You should check out that place, too. also..I like your music! I just moved to Findlay. What's there to do around these parts...? If you ever do an open mic again at Coffee Amici, let me know and i'll bring some friends.
Thanks to your recommendation, I convinced my boyfriend to go with me to Satang today. I was VERY impressed. Excellent, cozy atmosphere, and great service. We had never had Thai food before so we really appreciated the descriptive menu; they even provided us with a photo book with pictures of every dish. I chose the red curry with tofu, which was good, but SPICY considering I only ordered medium. I liked my boyfriend's choice of the Gai Rayong better.
I would recommend getting a Thai ice tea for a delicious drink. It was ice tea with half & half on top, which really helped calm the fire in my mouth. My strongest suggestion, however, is to start with the spring rolls. They were amazing, and my favorite food of the night! Thanks very much for your review, Josh! I'm so glad you encouraged us to try this great restaurant.
I had supper here tonight and it was really delicious. I had the "Ka Prow Shrimp" and it really reminded of the food I had in Thailand -- which is a very high compliment.
Be sure to order it "Thai Spicy" and then get a Thai tea to cool your mouth. Thanks for the great review and directions Josh. What did folks do before the internet and google? I am just in town for a couple of days and I would have never found this place on my own. Really glad I didn't miss it.
