Serai Thai Restaurant

We’ve been coming to this restaurant for as long as we can remember, and it continues to be one of our personal favourites in town. The food is consistently satisfying — the kangkung belacan is packed with that perfect smoky, spicy punch, the beef with dried chilli is tender and flavorful, and the salted squid is a must-have every time. While the steamed seabass didn’t quite meet expectations this round, it was too soured with no umami taste and sugary - little underwhelming in comparison to their usual standard — the overall meal still hit the spot. The familiarity, comforting flavours, and nostalgic charm of this place keep us coming back. It’s a reliable go-to for a hearty, satisfying Thai meal.

The Fried Rice Thai Belacan bursts with flavor, combining the aromatic essence of belacan with fragrant rice for a delightful culinary experience. Equally enticing is the Fried Rice Thai Style, boasting a perfect balance of spices and seasoning that transport diners to the bustling streets of Thailand. For seafood lovers, the Squid Salted Egg offers a savory twist, with tender squid coated in rich salted egg yolk sauce. Complete your meal with the Tham Tim Grab, a refreshing dessert featuring sweet water chestnuts enveloped in coconut milk and crushed ice. Wash it all down with a refreshing Ice Lemon Tea, the perfect accompaniment to the bold flavors of Thai cuisine. With its vibrant ambiance and authentic flavors, Serai Thai Restaurant is a must-visit destination for Thai food enthusiasts in Shah Alam.

The butter prawn was good and portion was big for three people. It was reasonably priced too. The tomyam is just okay ish.

This restaurant has been here for so long! BUT the food is still delicious as always. Quality I had the Pad Thai, Deep Fried Squid, Deep Fried Fish with Sweet and Sour Sauce, Kerabu Mangga, Thai Iced Tea, and fried vegetables. Don't get too much rice on your plate as the side dishes are A LOT! Even standard/smaller portions is quite a lot. Highly recommended for you to make a reservation for public holidays and weekends as its quite packed. A lot of people come here to eat. Cash and card payments are both available here. The restaurant also provides high chairs for babies if you need it.

Price is slightly high compare to other, but portion and quality still okay. Not over salty or sweet. Tomyam soup not bad. They serve the rice by putting how much you want in your plate, very Thai style. Claypot toufu not much of taste, but full of other vege like cauliflower, mushroom and carrots. Staffs are all friendly.

Great food and ambience. Friendly staff. They offer to take pictures of us. If we got chance to visit Shah Alam again, definitely will come back here.
