A modern Thai
table.
Made with love.

Satay is an elevated take on Thai cuisine — chef-driven plates, a velvet-and-rattan dining room, and the warm hospitality of a family that has been feeding Fresno for two generations.

Our Story

From a family kitchen
to Fresno's table.

Satay was born from David Rasavong and Anna Le Nguyen — together with cousins Tito Thepkaysone and Sophorn So — a family carrying forward a legacy that started with David's parents, immigrants from Laos who built a life here through the recipes they loved.

Inside, woven rattan chandeliers drape through twisting greenery. A softly lit bar with arched shelves and emerald velvet stools invites you to linger. Every plate is a modern interpretation of dishes the family has been perfecting for years.

"Served with the warmth and hospitality of family."
