I'm sorry we've come across in this way. While none of us have degrees in hospitality, we've worked very hard for 12 years (8 at this location) to weather the vagaries of human nature. I can only say that we take care to autopsy each mistake we know we make in the effort not to repeat it. We try our...
The ignorance of the first reviewer astounds me. The owners of Baan Sawan put more care into every dish than in any other restaurant I have ever been to. It has a great, intimate atmosphere, engaging staff and incredible food. What are you looking for? Tavern on Green? I'm sure they won't lose ...
The food at “BAAN Sawan Thai Bistro” is very good, but the overall experience is compromised. We’ve tried it several times in hopes of improvement, but sadly the place reminds us of that Hertz commercial that has the punch line, “not exactly”. It comes across as more of a hobby of owners with more...

If you like a lot of noise, high prices for "catering" food, and an irritating owner/manager who is quite argumentative, this is the place for you!
Best ice cream and chicken I think I've ever had! Wish I can find Zetos gift cards for my parents who also love this place! Keep up the great work!!!
Do you enjoy eating Greek food and meat served at room temperature? More than an hour after we ordered, our food arrived. Most everyone had cold food. Thank goodness they had a microwave. Moussaka was bland, probably frozen. Their "Greek-style potatoes" are simply whole Irish potatoes, boi...
Standard American diner fare served with friendly and courteous atttention. Ate there three mornings in a row and would go back again if ever in Coumbia
The Kobayashi family were extremely courteous and friendly to my husband and I as we visited my daughter who was in school in Columbia, SC. The food was extremely good and I would recommend this to anyone without any hesitation! (Shiggy - we think of you often). Susan Chilton
It was good. The waitress was a little bit unhelpful in selecting a dish, considering my inexperience with Thai food, but the food itself was very good.
These guys understand eggroll Great job Chen!!!
The best sushi restaurant in Columbia!!
Excellent food, bad service. As a previous rater, we were told by our waiter that we had ordered too much sushi. Little did he know that my husband is a competitive athlete who eats A LOT. We are also veteran sushi eaters. However, we deferred to the waiter's suggestion ... only to end up orderin...
Great place to eat! Best of the best. Eggroll Chen is one of the places the locals will refer you to just because it is so welcoming and down right good eats. Chen is miles ahead of the China Huts or any of those typical chinese "hole in the wall" places around town. Make it your main stop when in t...
Great food here -- my wife (who is native Japanese) and I dined here several times for everything from sushi to sukiyaki and were always pleased with our meals. Unfortunately, we'll never go back there after some extremely rude treatment by a waitress and a younger sushi chef. After placing our ord...
A staple of Irmo. Great Greek food at 1970's prices! Great place to take kids. I suffer withdrawal symptoms if I don't eat there about once every two months! Say "Hi!" to Jimmy for me!
Excellent place to eat quality Sushi and Japanese style hibachi. Very reasonable in price. The ambiance is OK, but it is very clean and staff are always pleasant. No long waiting and easy to locate.
Every bite of their food is amazing. Saki is the only place that has special rolls such as Birthday roll, Columbia roll, and Bento boxes. You cannot find these anywhere else here in Columbia. It provides so much flavor you would not believe it. Most importantly, everything there is homemade. Mo...
