very bad experience. Food was so horrible. Waste of time waste of money. Not recommended at all. We got fooled with 4.5 rating.

The Tom Yum soup was tasty. Very good broth. The Tom Yum with noodles was a bit sweet for my palette and not spicy but tasted good too. The soup is big enough for 2 people and sits on a hot plate in the center of the table so it never gets

Shine Thai Cuisine in Daly City provided me with a truly satisfying dining experience. From the first bite of the crispy and flavorful fried egg rolls to the last forkful of the satay chicken with shrimp fried rice, every dish was a testament to the chef's skill and commitment to quality. The pad Thai with chicken showcased the perfect balance of sweet, savory, and tangy flavors, making it a delightful journey for my taste buds. The pineapple shrimp curry was a standout, with a rich and creamy coconut-based sauce complemented by succulent shrimp and sweet pineapple chunks. What impressed me equally was the efficiency of their service. The fast 25-minute pick-up time exceeded my expectations, making it a convenient option for those looking for a quick yet delicious meal. The attention to detail in packaging ensured that the food arrived fresh and well-preserved. Moreover, Shine Thai Cuisine offers a fantastic culinary experience without breaking the bank. The pricing is reasonable for the quality and portion sizes provided. It's clear that they prioritize customer satisfaction through both taste and value. The intimate ambiance at Shine Thai Cuisine added a special touch to my dining experience. With only a few tables available, the restaurant exuded a cozy and inviting atmosphere that made it feel like a hidden gem. However, it's worth noting that when I visited at 7 pm, the limited space resulted in a crowded yet lively atmosphere, which added to the sense of authenticity and popularity. Despite the bustling environment, the staff managed the crowd efficiently, ensuring a seamless dining experience. The cozy setting, combined with the aromatic scents of the freshly prepared dishes, created a warm and welcoming environment that enhanced the overall enjoyment of the meal. While the popularity of Shine Thai Cuisine might mean a bit of a wait during peak hours, the positive energy and vibrant atmosphere make it clear why this place draws in a crowd. If you appreciate a bustling yet cozy setting and are willing to embrace the lively atmosphere, the delicious food and unique dining experience at Shine Thai Cuisine are well worth it. In conclusion, if you're in Daly City and craving authentic and delicious Thai cuisine, Shine Thai Cuisine is a must-try. The combination of fast service, outstanding food quality, and reasonable pricing makes it a standout choice in the local dining scene. I'll definitely be returning for more flavorful experiences.

The greats were good and served in a fun milkshake glass. I really enjoyed the pineapple fried rice and the rolls. Wasn't the biggest fan of the chicken in the curry but the soup was delicious!

The flavorful food saved them from me and a bad experience.Delicious food. Green curry for me. Try it.! And as a guy…buxom waitress is a bonus. Sorry!!! Keeping it real ?

Our favorite no-frills Thai place so far. The place is clean. There's plenty of parking. And the staff is friendly and efficient. More importantly, the food tastes great and the prices are reasonable.

Food is not the best. Super slow and they make you wait. Service is not good they prioritize to go. I would rather go to White Elephant.

I had chicken pad thai take out. The Good: I liked the noodles. Cooked with a good texture. The flavor was good. The price is reasonable. Good local comfort food. The Bad: Glad I did not dine in because the interior is depressing. All the ambience of a warehouse break room. I'm of the opinion that pad thai should always be served with a wedge of lime. fortunately, I had some on hand. And why are the peanuts over n the corner of the take out container? The dish would benefit from a bit more variety, such as more bean sprouts and more green onion. Will I order it again? Yes.

All the Thai dishes were very tasty and flavorful, with a good balance of sweet, sour and spicy flavors. All ingredients were fresh and cooked to perfection and the portions were very large. I especially liked the spicy curry dishes and the refreshing salads.

No frills, straight to the point, delicious Thai food at reasonable prices. This one is my go to Thai restaurant.
Shine Thai is a solid place to come to for authentic, quality Thai food. I love getting their pad Thai or pad see ew as well as their green curry. And if you're in the mood for something deep fried, either their veggie rolls and shrimp in a blanket or solid options. It doesn't take too long for them to prepare the meal so it's always a go-to option for us when we're in a pinch and don't have time to make dinner.

I normally come here to get to go food because it's very convenient. Food was always good and never had to complain. Today i ordered it to go and as i was eating my wings of angel, i noticed a little bubble looking part on the chicken that was unusual. I started to try and grab it and this piece that you see in the picture began to come out. Seems like someone forgot to remove the plastic.

it's okay. curry was good but pad thai was meh as well as the kee mow noodles. crispy chicken is crispy but i don't like the sauce. it's to sweet for me.

I am 50/50 on this place. The Pad See Ew, Crispy Chicken, and Thai Iced Tea were to die for. Truly delicious and cook to perfection. Very pleased with the crunch on the kitchen and the sauce on the flat noodles. I would come back just for those dishes. Unfortunately the Pad Thai & green curry may have been some of the worst Thai dishes I've ever had. I love both of those meals but here the pad Thai tasted like kitchen almost and the green curry was so watery it didn't have that nice creamy consistency I am looking for. The ambiance is standard. Lots of tables available. There is one single bathroom. Lots of people are picking up to go. The price is extremely affordable compared to Sf Thai food and we had so many leftovers which is always a plus.

I discovered this new Thai restaurant 2 months ago. The food, menu selections & service are all good. The 1st time was a pickup which I was happy with because they were able to follow instructions very well. The 2nd time was a dine in last Saturday, Sept 30rh, 2023. Overall I give them good ratings. I gave them only 4 stars because to my taste they put too much sugar especially the pad thai. It really is good but too sweet for my taste. Their green curry is good too but maybe a lil less sugar too. The satays were good & the deep fried trout was lovely.Not too much parking during lunchtime because there are other restaurants & business in this small mall.
