This small Thai restaurant in the heart of the pretty Russian Hill district offers a pleasant stopover in the land of Siam. The owner and chef Toi Sawatdee offers a menu where curry is king. Vegetarians will also be delighted as the selection of vegetarian dishes is very extensive. Bamboo shoots, coconut milk, noodle soup and of courselemongrass will be there for everyone's pleasure. The products are guaranteed fresh and in season by the house. Pleasant and unpretentious setting.

The curries lack depth and flavor. Everyone knows that O.O moment when your first bite of a rich, spicy Thai curry hits. Unfortunately we met lackluster, watery curry comparable to a powder mix from the grocery. Similarly, you vow to never do THAT again.
The other orders were no saving grace. The kra pow was the oddest rendition and shrimp cakes tasted rubbery and bland with an uninspiring sauce to drown the disappointment.
Lastly, the fried rice was the final nail in the coffin. My home wok + scorching heat never fails to deliver, so I expect far better wok hei from an industrial kitchen’s flame. Was it prepared on a nonstick?
I’m sure this restaurant would do fine elsewhere, but this is SF and the bar is sky high. I just can’t help but wish for a big turnaround. Please fill the air on my daily walk by with irresistible sweet nothings. Tempt me for I am weak for authentic curry.
