The food here was delicious! The woman at the counter was warm and inviting, and even gave me a recommendation on what to order. (The bahmi kiao soup!) The soup had such a good sized portion of meat and noodles, and the dumplings were great too. My wife got the pad see ew - which she also loved! I tried it as well and it had a dash of sweetness which I really enjoyed. The prices were more than fair, the food was great, the Thai iced tea hit on a warm afternoon and the seating was clean and convenient. I would definitely recommend coming here!

This place is the hidden gem!! One of the best places with the highest quality-price ratio. The food is authentic (as a Thai person, I can justify for Chicken rice and the bbq & crispy pork belly rice) and has big portions! Beef Pho is also flavorful. My friend is not so impressed with chicken breast karaage, but I think it executes quite well - healthy meat but deep fried. In any event, we had a great time with leftovers. And we didn't even order the most popular dishes here yet. So we will definitely come back for more. PS: The owner and the staff are Thai. So that gives quite reassurance :)

Really poor food for price and below average. Service was ok but overall won't return

This is our second time trying this place (last time was takeout). It is clean inside and service is good. However the food just doesn’t live up to earlier reviews. Not good for kids who don’t eat any spicy food. Most of the appetizers are deep fried. I tried the street noodles today which were just okay. There are better options in the neighborhood.

Hands down one of the best Curry Noodle Soups I've had in the U.S. The meat was very tender, the wonton ball added a nice texture (once dunked in the soup) and acted as a nice vehicle to soak up the flavor of the broth. The noodles (not sure if they were egg or wheat) had a nice chewy texture. Also, the pickled veggies added a nice sour kick to compliment the coconut forward Curry Broth that's found in a lot of good soups in Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia. For me, once I added some of the Sambal and Vinegared Jalapenos, it deepened the flavor and was good to the last drop.

Quick speedy service! HACK: If you check in on yelp, you get a free drink! The menu was super intriguing. My noodles were flavorful but toppings were underwhelming. The egg yoke was hard, BBQ pork and wonton was bland, crispy pork could've been more crispy. I would love to come back to try other items on the menu but was not the best first impression.

A hidden gem within the Castro! If you're looking for various, yummy noodle and rice dishes (that span different cuisines) this is the place to go! It's a bit unassuming and hidden within the Castro, but you'll be pleased with the quality dishes, friendly service and laid back environment. If you're someone that is more on the introverted side, this is likely the place for you since you order at the counter and the worker end up bringing the food to your tables. My faves are the duck noodle, kao soi and hainanese chicken!

No frills order-at-the-counter noodle joint that has no reason being as good as it is. Got the #1 Street Noodle and the Wonton Noodle soup and both came out quickly and were filling and delicious. The place was pretty dead, but I hope it gets good business. It was the perfect post drinking dish.

Khao soi was exceptional. Has prime grade steak in it, which you don't see much for cost reasons. def get it with the beef! Big portion, love that they serve it with a ton of broth.

The noodle soups here are amazing, and the price isn't bad for whats included. I'm here visiting but I'd definitely be a regular if I lived here!

This is a bit of a hidden gem in the Castro. I'm sad they don't see more foot traffic, the location is a bit out of the way. But their food has been really good! The street noodles with dumplings were absolutely delicious. And I've also tried their Chicken and Rice, which was pretty solid. The place is pretty quiet due to the lack of customers, but that makes it great if your looking for a nice quiet lunch in the Castro.

Ordered the Kao Soi and it was great! Noodles had nice chewy texture and curry was rich but balanced. Beef was well seasoned. Ordered the cream cheese Rangoons and they were good too. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Interior could use a bit more decor. Highly recommend if you're in the Castro looking for some Asian noodle cuisine
