Worst pad thai noodle i have ever eaten in my life. It was dry, not enough sauce and the oil they use to cook it makes me feel kind of nauseous. It taste more like cheap fast food. I will never return to this place again.

Food is okay ! Our food was salty and had to ask for a replacement ! Portion size is small.

I wish I found this place sooner. The restaurant just opened a couple years ago. Funny cause this isn’t that far from the other Thai resto my boyfriend and I used to go and didn’t know they exist. Anyways I ordered their Tom Yum fried rice that comes with grilled salmon and it was really delicious. For me it was the best Tom yum fried rice I’ve ever had. The fish cakes did not disappoint they were yummy. Their roti according to my boyfriend is the most delicious hetried so far.

I had been wanting to try Sistory a while, especially since I was eyeing their tigery waffle and Thai tea pancake (I do wish they offered the waffle with Thai tea syrup, as I prefer waffles over pancakes) but I realized they sadly only offer their brunch menu on the weekend, so I opted instead to order curry puffs and a black mango iced tea. I ordered ahead on Uber Eats and it seemed the order was ready toward the beginning of the pickup window I selected, although I wasn't able to get there until later.The restaurant staff packaged it well for transporting it home; I was able to take my bag home using a combination of walking and bus without making a mess or spilling. They stapled the paper bag, wrapped the cup for the tea in two layers of plastic wrap, and put tape on the box for the curry puffs to secure the food. I really appreciate the care put into this since I've frequently had issues with my takeout sliding around and spilling when I had to carry it home, given I don't have a car.The black mango tea is bitter and not sweet, although you can pick up on a subtle fruity flavor. They also put mint leaves and a lemon slice in it. I thought it was alright and not a bad price ($4) though I personally would've preferred less mint and lemon flavor and more of the mango.The curry puffs were really good, very savory and buttery. It goes well with the yellow curry sauce. I do wish they included even more curry dip with it. The small amount of salad that was included with the puffs was also pretty good, it tasted pretty well marinated so you would like it if you prefer a more vinegar-y, fermented flavor and prefer not to taste as much of the plain flavor of the vegetables themselves. Although this is in the appetizers section and it's only slight less than the cost of most of Sistory's main dishes for lunch/dinner, I would say it's a good enough portion for one meal if you're not someone who eats huge portions.Overall, I thought the food was yummy. The only things I'd change would probably be upping the quantity of the puffs and curry, making the mango come out more strongly in the tea, and offering their special brunch items on weekdays - though I totally understand why it may not be practical based to offer the brunch menu every day of the week.

My first visit here was not bad. Tried some brunch plates and they tasted good. However, my 2nd visit was not the case. Kao Soi I ordered tastes terrible (hard to describe the flavor though).
Although this area sometime feels a bit sketchy, it has a lot of hidden gems and Sistory Thai Kitchen is one of them! Staffs are friendly, the price is reasonable, and the food is unique. I always come back for its garlic noodles with crispy pork belly. Great flavor and big enough portion!

Such a cute place! Friendly service and great food. I had the mussaman curry and for almost the first time in a Berkeley Thai restaurant I found the potatoes perfectly cooked as opposed to almost raw. The fresh rolls were really light and fresh. Definitely worth a revisit

With several Thai restaurants in the Gilman area, don’t miss this one. The menu appeals to meat and non meat eaters as well as those craving a lot or a little heat. Well balanced portion sizes to price. Nicely cooked fresh ingredients. Innovative lemonades. Seems very popular for take-out.

Presentation was fantastic! Pancakes were delicious. Underwhelmed by the chicken and waffles and sad about it.
