The pad see ew at Sage Cafe is perfectly charred with wok hei and the portions are generous. Best Thai in Lakeside and the prices are very reasonable for the quality.

Sage Cafe makes the best green curry in Lakeside. Coconut milk broth with just the right heat, fresh vegetables, and the rice soaks up every bit of sauce. Absolutely fantastic.

The tom yum soup at Sage Cafe is deeply flavorful and the spice level is adjustable. The spring rolls are perfectly crispy and the peanut sauce is housemade. Great date night spot.

Family Thai dinner at Sage Cafe every Friday night. The kids love the pad thai and the adults love the drunken noodles. Consistent quality and the staff treats us like regulars.

Ordered the mango sticky rice at Sage Cafe and it was the best dessert I have had in a long time. The rest of the meal matched up to that standard. Excellent Thai food in Lakeside.

Good Thai food at Sage Cafe. The massaman curry is rich and hearty. A bit of a wait on weekends but worth it. The iced Thai tea is the perfect finish to the meal.

Sage Cafe is a find in Lakeside. The owners are from Chiang Mai and the Northern Thai dishes on the menu are not found anywhere else locally. The khao soi is extraordinary.
