Prik Hom — Restaurant in San Francisco

So happy to see this spot filled again with another great Thai restaurant. Made a reservation through their Instagram DMs (super convenient when you're already looking at pictures of their amazing dishes!) for six adults and three toddlers. They offered to have a kids meal prepared, which I readily agreed to.

The restaurant itself got a nice fresh makeover from when it was Derm. The staff are very friendly and gave us the time and space to enjoy the meal before approaching to ask what we thought about the food (it's always awkward when people ask you while you're mid-chew haha).

We ordered: Thai Style Beef Jerky Almost Naked Shrimp Hat Yai Fried Chicken Yum Son-in-Law Tom Ka Chicken (Soup) x2 Gor Lae (Halibut in curry) Squid with Salted Egg Sauce Crab Omelette Kids Meal (Crab Fried Rice) Ultimate Thai Iced Tea

The kids loved the fried rice and us adults who sneaked in a few bites did as well! My personal favorites were the Hat Yai, Almost Naked Shrimp, Gor Lae, Yum Son-in-Law and the Ultimate Thai Iced Tea.

Will definitely come back with friends and look forward to seeing what's on their menu for May!

Small note: no high chairs but they do have two booster seats. Luckily we live close by so we had our own booster brought in for the third kiddo in...

Our recent visit with a group of seven was not pleasant and we ended up hungry still after paying ~$100 per person. This place doesn't worth the hype.

Pre-fixe Menu: While a pre-fixe menu was mandated, prior communication regarding this requirement would have been appreciated.

Service: Waitress gave my friend a look when she was serving scallope and my friends asked for plates. She could have ackownledge and asked my friends to hold

!!Portion Size!!: We were surprised by the portion size of the main courses, which is inadequate for a group of seven, particularly considering the price per person (~$90). While we raised this concern promptly, the response did not adequately address it. when comparing online, the portion for 7 is slightly larger than for 2. What a scam !

Food Quality: The overall quality of the dishes was below expectations. Excessive use of sugar and oil was evident, and some seafood (specifically squid) exhibited slimy. The scallops, however, were good.

Tipping Policy: The inclusion of a mandatory 20% gratuity based on the post-tax amount deviated from customary practices and lacked...

Fantastic new neighborhood Thai restaurant in the Richmond! Prik Hom was recently listed on the New York Times best new restaurants list and was included in the Michelin Guide (but doesn't yet have a star). Of course, in true SF fashion, it immediately booked up for the year. It's a small restaurant with maybe 30 seats max. Service was friendly!

The restaurant is fairly modest in style, but with nice art along the walls. Fortunately, prices are also relatively modest, with starters in the $12-16 range, mains in the $17 - $29 range, and desserts for $12; so a 3-course meal (without drinks) can come in just under $50 before tax/tip. Expect modern takes on traditional thai food, including curries, stir fry dishes, thai salads, oxtail soup, and more. I especially loved the Smoked Young Coconut Ice Cream, the Ultimate Thai Iced Tea, the Beef Cheek Panang Curry, and the Scallops and Lemongrass.

Kudos to Prik Hom for not including hidden fees or surcharges, like the infamous SF Employer Mandate. +1...
