Average at best – I love thai food and being a neighbor to this place, thought it would be convenient to have a local take out joint. The food is forgettable, it really is. The crispy tofu was underwhelming and basic - fried tofu with sweet chili sauce from a bottle. How creative is that? They also have tiny portions for most of their dishes and I could not help to think...why bother? It is clear that the chefs at this place either do not understand thai food or, worse, just do not care. I would not drop another $50 here, wh... read more
Great Food, Great Atmoshpere, Good Prices, Good Experience – I was taken here by a friend and just totally impressed with the decor and the cleanliness and the way the room is set up. It's so open and cheerful. It's a perfect place to go with a friend or on a date. It's casual and dressy at the same time. It's just pefect. The food is really amazing and they have nice cocktails. I go back whenever I can. Yummers is the soup.
No flavor food – The initial impression seemed very promising. The wait staff was nice and we were promptly seated. They had a ton of choices on their menu and my partner and I decide to order a bunch of appetizers. I think that's where we went wrong. Everything on the menu seem interesting until you actually got the food and tasted it. Talk about disappointment. The seafood soup was hot but it didn't have any flavor. They had some nice seafood in there: shrimp, squid, and two tiny crab claws but it wasn't worth it. The chic... read more
Good food and nice ambiance – Had a weeknight dinner here with a friend and it was yummy! The service was great--food came quickly and waiters kept refilling our water glasses. We had the two soups--really yummy but keep in mind the coconut milk "soup" is almost like a dish in itself so it fills you up! I got the pumpkin chicken curry (red curry) which was delicious and we also ordered the asparagus with prawns, which was a good "green" thing to add. The place has a nice trendy feel, and it was very clean. The bathroom has f... read more
Fairly Good Thai At A Fairly Good Price – I have eaten lunch here and found the Thai food to be pretty good with a nice price to match. The only negative is that it gets pretty busy for lunch during the week and the place can get extremely loud.
Absolutely the best Thai in SF! – I love this place. The food is amazing and the place is happening too. The salad with the beef is to die for. The beef tastes like super top notch quality and I should know being from Nebraska. Everything else is really good too. Love this place and its sister restaurant in N. Beach but this one is better I think.
Great little place – Being a fan of Citizen Thai, we tried this out since it's much closer to us, and were not disappointed. The food was delicious, and the server was extremely friendly and helpful. We'll definitely be returning!
Can't miss this place if you like Thai food. – I was having dinner at the restaurant last Sunday with my wife and had a very pleasant experience, the atmosphere was relaxing, the decor very Thai and beautiful and the food is very delicious. I was also impressed by the service, our waitress was very polite, friendly and unobtrusive, I will definitely be going back.
Pretty Darn Good – I thought this place was very good. I had the pumpkin/ck curry and it was awesome! I also had the spring rolls, beef satay, and the ck/mushroom soup. My fiance didn't like his dish though (some shrimp dish.) I tasted it, and it was a little bland. I guess it depends on what you get. But yes, I would say that everything that I ordered was great and I would definatley recommend it.
