Baan Yaai — Restaurant in San Francisco

This is excellent Thai food.

We started the meal with the gyoza in red curry sauce. Very tasty. Crispy and hot.

For lunch the wife had the drunken noodle and I had the pad Thai with shrimp. My pad Thai was very solid, just exactly how you expect it. Excellent.

Now my wife is, I would say, a thai food enthusiast. I'm not sure it's her main passion, but she could probably get a PhD in loving Thai food.

This is her fourth favorite Thai food, in San Francisco. That is very high praise. When asked, she said she would eat here again, which my wife if she doesn't like the Thai food she will never go back to the city that the Thai food was made in.

She had the drunken noodle. She said it was a classic drunken noodle and very good.

We had two Thai iced teas and that was it. I'm very much recommend if you're in the...

We spent over six weeks in Thailand in January and February this year and we ate well!! So trying to find an authentic Thai restaurant, we decided to give this a try! We’re so glad we did as we felt that there flavors and taste were so reminiscent of all the food we ate at very local restaurants and vendors in Southern Thailand as well as Chiang Mai.

We ordered green curry with chicken and the chicken pad Thai. We also ordered brown rice. The food was perfect and brought us back to our time earlier this year in Thailand.

We coming back to try many different dishes in their menu!! Also service...

Oh yesss! Grandma's thai food.. sign me up!! We were pleasantly surprised by this quiet, intimate joint so close to the bustling Chestnut St in the Marina neighborhood. Loved the feel of the place & the warm service! The ambiance & the sliding windows of the storefront definitely transports your imagination to an Asian market street where you enjoy a quick meal while people watching. We ordered the Gyoza, Tom Yum Soup, Vegetarian Fried Rice & Thai Iced Tea. Delicately seasoned, smallish portions enough to fill you up but also feel light after the meal. Definitely recommend for a nice afternoon...
