Favorite Thai Place in SF!
This is legitimately my favorite Thai place in SF. The menu items are varied, and as basic as it sounds, the Waygu Fried Rice is amazing. The Khao Soy Chicken is also a game changer. The food is excellent, with a 5/5 rating, and the atmosphere is equally impressive at 5/5. The service also received a perfect score of 5.

Excellent Thai Food and Atmosphere
My experience at this restaurant was very positive. They offered very good thai food with large servings and reasonable prices. The staff were friendly and accommodating, contributing to the good vibes of the restaurant, which was enhanced by many ornaments showing thai traditional pop culture.

Our Favorite Thai Spot in SF!
My partner and I absolutely love this place and visit frequently; it consistently exceeds our expectations. We consider it our top favorite Thai restaurant in San Francisco. The Pad Kee Mao (drunken noodles) is a standout, perfectly spicy. The Khao Soi with crispy chicken offers a comforting meal, and we always finish with the mango sticky rice.

Best Pad See Ew Ever!
My experience at this restaurant was exceptional. The Pad See Ew was the best I have ever had in my life, evoking memories of wandering the streets of Bangkok and Chiang Mai. The atmosphere was super cosy, and the food was top level.

Disappointing Food, Awkward Service
My experience at this restaurant was a solid 3/5 for food, though it was quite bland. They didn't ask for our spice preference, which was a miss as we actually love spicy food. The portion sizes weren't very generous; my curry had minimal tofu and only a few small potato pieces. I was honestly shocked by the high rating, especially since I visited based on a 4. 5 rating. Perhaps the atmosphere is considered authentic with its posters and signs, and it seems like a place people enjoy for socializing and drinks. The staff was friendly, but there were some awkward moments. At one point, a staff member stared at me while clearing plates and spilled liquid from a chicken dish onto our table. Despite seeing my shocked reaction, he didn't return to clean it, forcing us to use our limited paper napkins. While the prices are lower than other major Thai restaurants in the city, the portion sizes reflect this. They never asked for spice level.

A Pleasant Surprise in Japantown
We found this gem while trying to avoid the crowd in Japantown. It turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Every dish we tried was delicious.

Great food, cozy atmosphere!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I haven't had a bad meal yet, and everything has been so good. The prices are decent, and while it can get a bit crowded, the atmosphere is very homie. I highly recommend it!

Delicious Food, Great Vibes!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The decor and vibes were very cute, creating a lovely atmosphere. The food was delicious, and I particularly enjoyed the fried tofu and eggplant. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the service excellent. They also offer a vegan section on their menu with a good array of dishes, which is a great option for those with dietary restrictions.

Disappointing Meal, Small Portions
Despite all the positive reviews, our dining experience left us feeling a bit disappointed. The portions were noticeably small compared to what we'd expect from a similar Thai restaurant. I ordered the Waygu beef khao soi, which was overly salty with a lack of depth in flavor, and the beef itself was not tender or flavorful. My husband's chicken special with sticky rice was also underwhelming, featuring only three pieces of chicken with minimal flavor, accompanied by chopped lettuce and a sweet sauce. The sticky rice served on the side was not very warm and lacked freshness.

Delicious Vegan Options and Fast Service
My experience at the restaurant was incredibly positive. The service was super fast, and I was seated with no wait. I particularly enjoyed the coconut-covered banana dessert, which was both delicious and light. What truly impressed me was the dedicated vegan section on the menu, which is amazing! The atmosphere was great, with moderate noise, and the food and service both received a perfect score of 5.
