Walked in randomly and was surprised by their great food. Friendly staff. Good value. Does not apply the "SF Ordiance Healthy Mandate" fee.

Cute restaurant, staff was good, but was disappointed in the food. The food was decent, but nothing super special and kinda flavorless. Not somewhere I'd put on the list to go back to.

Excellent food with perfect taste and flavors. The price was right and more than reasonable. The quantity was substantial as well. We had the pad Thai and the green curry. We enjoyed both as it’s been difficult to find a good Thai place in the city.

We love Thai Spice.This is one of the good Thai places in SF.They have good enough options for vegetarians. (No egg, no meat, no fish sauce)What we tried here:Tom Kha SoupDrunken NoodlesYellow Curry(Vegetarian on request)Green curry (Non Vegetarian)The quantity served was good for two if you both have limited capacity.The ambience of this place is really cozy and if you visit this place at a non crowded hour or dinner, you’ll have a calming experience.

This was a great experience. We checked 2 other Thai restaurants in the area before we picked this one. At entry, we felt good. Well designed and clean. We selected two appetizers and two entrees. Each one tasted so good and very different in ingredients and taste. We loved it. I have 4 stars, and I wish there’s 4.5 stars only due to having impersonal service. It was like drop and go without a word. It would have completed the good experience here if the servers could’ve said something.All ingredients tasted so fresh. I would come back again for sure. Please check the photos I posted here to see what we ordered.

Food: 4-5/5Ambiance: Nice Ordered the Khao Soi, Mhoo Palo, and the Angry Basa. I was pleasantly surprised with the basa and it was probably my favorite dish. It's a softer breading with a good blend of flavors from garnishes. It wasn't a blow your mind first bite, but it was that comfort food "mmmm" taste to me. The Khao Soi is exactly how it should be. The Mhoo Palo is similar to Chinese "hong shao rou" and while it was quite good, I probably wouldn't order again.Value-wise, the menu is priced similar to other Thai restaurants in SF in the same tier of quality.Would come back again to try more dishes. I had a pleasant first experience.

We ate at Thai Spice on our first night of our 4 day stay in San Francisco and it was great. Delicious, fresh food, very good service in a great atmosphere.Because we were so excited, we returned on our last evening despite the number of other welcoming restaurants and experienced terrible service. Less than 60 seconds after we were served the appetizer and starter soup, the main course was brought to us. Without comment, without a word, the bowls were placed somewhere on our table, which was richly set with starters, and our starter plates were moved in the process. We now had to choose which dish we wanted to eat cold.During the meal, waitresses constantly came and, without speaking, collected plates and bowls that they thought we no longer needed.However. The food was again tasty, but only to a limited extent in this atmosphere.Since we didn't feel comfortable and the service was poor, we adjusted the tip. The waitress stood impatiently with the credit card machine during the payment process. When I was almost finished, she pulled the device away without a word and disappeared. Today I read on my credit card statement that a 20% tip was charged, which I didn't give.I have never experienced such bad and outrageous behavior in a restaurant.
