50 Best Thai Restaurants near Daly City

“Ok well let me start off by saying, pictures will not do this place justice, nor will talking about it. You need to experience it for yourself. As someone who travels often looking for places to eat this place does not miss! I ordered 2 different plates and a drink and all i can say is, Delicious! 1st plate was a pork belly with over easy egg, artichoke, and potatoes wedges. Pork belly was melting in my mouth at how good it was! The egg on top made runny was perfect with the artichoke because it literally had me in a chokehold(in a good way) lol... (and mind you, im not big on artichoke) the sauce from the pork belly and runny egg was good for the wedges and 😩 my goodness. I can speak only good of the next plate.

The second plate i ordered was a chicken and waffle plate, and when I tell you it was good, I mean it. The chicken was tender, juicy, crispy on the outside, and flavorful. I decided to pour the honey over both the chicken. And the waffle and I'm glad I did! Just made it that much better. The fruit around the plate was all crisp, sweet, and very meticulously placed around the platter. Not one sour blueberry or badly flavored orange. To top it all off my drink order was a lavender lemonade, and mind you the chicken and waffle was sweet so you would think to yourself, I won't be able to taste the lemonade after eating something sweet? WRONG. the drink is very beautifully made and tastes just as wonderful. If there's one thing I could think of in terms of improvement it would probably be the lavender in the lemonade wasn't strong, but aside from that I had no problem drinking it nor eating anything on my plates. I will definitely make sure to come back with friends.“

“Good food!!! Tucked in a corner at Westlake Daly City but dont let the location fool you. This place is always packed with people. Come hungry if you plan to go!!!“

“I celebrated my birthday today in this delicious restaurant. I am glad to say that we enjoyed a outstanding evening and the venue was undoubtedly the reason for that successful gathering.

“the Thai soup with the prawns in it I like mine spicy“

“The best and only one Thai style BBQ place in SF. Feel like you are eating in Thailand, only the meat here is better quality and well marinated. Service is friendly and very helpful.“

“Amazing food at a great price“

“Brilliant flavor combinations and beautiful presentation. The gaeng bumbai aubergine has the the right amount of heat without being overpowering.“

“Great food quality and fantastic service.“

“Delicious Thai food. We were so pleased to find a Thai restaurant where sweet is not a prominent profile in their food. We loved the sour pork, the banana blossom and squid, the eggplant, and the beef jungle curry - they were delicious and had so many little creative touches. The highlight of the meal for me was the smoked young coconut ice cream. So many nostalgic flavors that I have not had outside of Thailand. The Thai smoked candle flavor, the candied water palm fruit, the young rice syrup - just so special. Such a joy to be able to have this in San Francisco. Brought me back to precious moments in Thailand visiting family.“

“They were so busy when I arrived with two large parties on a Sunday. I came here specifically for the khao soi noodles and they did not disappoint! I got the appetizer platter + the khao soi noodles, 10/10! Next time I’ll ask for Thai spice 😆“

“Loved the decor and the vibe，great place to hang out with friends.The food was absolutely delicious! The flavors were spot on.If you're in the area, this place is a must-try!“

““Absolutely amazing. Fresh flavors, perfect spice, and portions that hit just right. The Pad Thai was 🔥, the curry was rich and smooth, and the service made me feel like family. Easily one of the best Thai spots I’ve tried—100% recommend.“

“The food was really delicious, flavorful, and perfectly portioned and coursed out for lunch. And for SF it was insanely reasonably priced for 5 courses at $40. Our server Emilio was super friendly and attentive to our table's deitary needs as well. Very kind and sweet!“

“Great people Great Food! Ask for the chicken skins.“

“We organized a 30+ people private luncheon party at Baan Yaai with guests of various dietary restrictions. The owners: Kong and Leah, and our contact person Maitai were very helpful and personable. They were essential parts of the party prep team, taking time to know us, the occasion and accommodating to various needs with fast turnaround. Our whole group had such a smooth experience thanks to the Baan Yaai team! Thanks for taking care of us with your kindness and dedication🌹 services are only amazing because great people are running it- and this is the place ☺️“

“We stopped by after a long day of exploring San Francisco and we were ready for a delicious hot meal. I ordered the pad se ew (which has all but become my standard Thai dish when I try a new place). The chicken was tender but the broccoli was a bit tough — I think Chinese broccoli would’ve probably been a more suitable variant. The sweet and savory sauce was pretty typical for pad se ew! The portion size made for a nice leftover meal and the pricing was more than reasonable.“

“I visit this restaurant roughly 2-3 times a year. This trip, I was here for their lunch combo special for $16.95. I chose the house salad, pot stickers, and spicy basil chicken. I also had the Thai fish cake appetizer dish. The food was good, though i think grounded chicken would’ve tasted better than sliced chicken for my spicy basil dish (but that’s my personal opinion). Services was good, and the place is no frills but clean.“

“Delecious food and exceptional service. A must visit in the SAN Francisco area.“

“A cute and cozy Thai spot with friendly staff and fresh food. We ordered Pad Gra Pao, Thai fried rice with fried chicken, and Pad Eggplant. The chicken was flavorful, and the smaller menu focuses on high quality dishes. A solid find in the Richmond area.“

“This palce is a certain of community and history on Bernal Heights. Old friends come in to greetings of hugs and kisses from the staff. New patrons are welcomed in almost equal fashion! The food and vibe is hearty and made with love. No Reservations. Come over, put you name down, but you can enjoy wine or beer from a freat ludt inside or outsides as you wait. Shhh!!! Don't tell anyone else.“

“This place is AMAZING! From the time you walk in the door everyone greets you authentically and that love transfers into the food. I can’t wait to go back. Price, portions, taste, service…. The sweet and sour shrimp flavor was REAL…buss’’n. Muy delicioso… voy a volver pronto.“

“Pyszne jedzenie. Polecam“

“Best Thai food in SF. I highly recommend“

“Such great food and people. We were hungry driving around looking for that magical parking spot next to an acceptable eating spot bingo! We found it all at Gai. Unsure of what kinda of cuisine I said take the chance they’ve got a chicken on the sign so it’s actually food. And boy was it good. Delicious. Freshly prepared Asian Thai or Vietnamese food. I got the Original Chicken Rice bowl with side of broccali. My friend got the salad with Tofu. Both great. He sauces are fresh and flavorful. One is quite hot which I love. I recommend it. And as we sat there from 1:30 pm to 2:30, there were multiple to go orders being picked up. I think there were about 5 orders at a time rotating. Fresh Fast Full of Flavor. We hit the jackpot!“

“Amazing, me and friends alone driving in the roads at night. Hungry af went there and had amazing time and yes dinner was amazing. Had a time never to forge“

“Discovered this restaurant recently and this was my second visit. The food is delicious and place is clean and pretty full on a Friday evening so that says something. The service is okay.
The music was a tiny bit loud and the type could be reevaluated, but maybe it's just me.“

“On a recent trip to SF I got to experience this Resturant. Cozy intimate and comfortable, we had an awesome meal. Some of the group were Vegan and they were able to accommodate them with ease. But the BEST part was the waiter he was so sweet kind and attentive. I wish I knew his name. I can’t wait to visit my family again to visit this place and oh yeah the prices are great.“

“Khao Tiew San Francisco is a standout establishment, serving delicious, simple, and authentic local Thai dishes. They truly impress with creative and tasty twists on old favorites, such as their exceptional Khao Soi.
The baseline heat level is mild, which is perfect for most palates, but you can easily customize your spice level by adding the hot powder conveniently available on the table. Highly recommended!“

“So delicious! We shared a hot tea after a windy spring day along with coconut tom kha soup, Thai fried rice, rolls and pad see ew. Perfect amount of food for three people. I even needed some juice for my phone as it was about to die, and they even helped with that! Amazing service. Will be returning.“

“good food and great service“

“love that this place is open late. it can be hard to find a good place to eat late at night in nob hill but you KNOW i'm always down for thai food like i will slurp that mf pad see ew like i've never eaten a day in my life and that's exactly what i did that last three times that i went here. place is small but usually not too busy so you always get a good spot. good menu. decent food and good service. nothing crazy to write home about. they don't have portraits of the king and queen of thailand so like it can't be THAT good but it most certainly hits the spot for late night curry cravings. tbh. what am i even saying. i'm here like every week. and the prices are reasonable for the area.“

“Top notch. I’d highly recommend the sizzling platters. The Sizzling Beef Bomb was excellent. Fresh with very tender beef. The Sizzling Salmon with curry sauce was very nicely done as well. 👍 all round“

“I was a little nervous when the directions brought me to the back of an alley.
Such a lovely little restaurant. The food was delicious. Service was prompt and friendly.
The soup was so good that I wish I could have ordered extra to go!“

“Absolutely delicious, great service, outstanding dishes. Beautiful decor. Recommending highly.“

“Love this place! Their green curry is one of my comfort foods in town.

Took my boyfriend and best friend there and everyone loved the atmosphere.

The service is very attentive. The restaurant is always full but getting a table walk in is possible.“

“No wait and lots of open tables. We came around 6:00pm on a Monday. We have been coming here since the original location was on Monterey Blvd. All their food is delicious and not Thai spicy unless you want that burn and I am sure they can help you with that.

They start you off with a basket of fried shrimp chips and a tamarind dipping sauce. Plus water for everyone.

Their Thai ice tea is always on point. Pad Se-ew with Chicken has been my go to dish. Double cooked Duck. 😋 Their whole menu has wonderful options.“

“Very authentic Thai food. Casual environment. Love their dessert and the shrimp paste fried rice.“

“came in around 6:30pm on a wednesday evening and got seated immediately.

ordered the chicken salad, which is sometimes called larb on the menu in other thai restaurants. flavor was good though i wish it was spicier. none of the entrees or salads come with rice. decent food for the price.“

“Every time I go Basil Thai, I'm always impressed by each prepared dish. Each entree I have had has its own unique flavor and taste absolutely delicious. You will not be disappointed. ⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“I travel around the world for work and this Thai restaurant is quite possibly amongst the best I’ve tried. I will return every time I’m in San Francisco. Also, it’s a few blocks out of the way and was not busy on a Saturday at 6pm. Take advantage of excellent food without a wait before everyone finds it!“

“Great food with excellent, fresh ingredients. Beautiful place and excellent addition to Glen Park!“

“Authentic fresh ingredients/spices, excellent customer services and now my fav thai restaurant ! If you haven’t tried it do so soon😋“

“Excellent food served by volunteers who are part of this wonderful monastery. This is a nonprofit organization. You can also go in and meditate. The food is delicious. The volunteers are kind and helpful. They accept Venmo or cash donations for the food. Outdoor seating available. Extensive menu. Pork and Thai coffee was delicious!!!“

“Great, friendly and quick service. Comfortable seating. Good vibe music. Super clean restaurant. We're greeted with Land of Smiles, indeed. Food was great, reasonable price. We also ordered Togo for a late night snack and was very well cared and packed. We got everything we ordered and wanted. So far...This place offers the closest to Authentic Thai.“

“The staff was super sweet and attentive. Food was amazing!!! We had the chicken satay and chicken pad thai and it was to die for! They even had a variety of hot sauces, one of which was a really delicious dry blend they make in house! Really cute atmosphere too! Loved everything about this place!“

“ThaINery – International Food Court is located on the corner of Bush and Kearny streets and in the heart of FD which is an affordable, authentic Thai and tasty place “lo major de mejores” and the only survivor of this once always packed popular lunch joint [*Lee’s Kitchen, French-Vietnamese Pho, Pao Jao Dumpling & Ramen, Pushkin, Taqueria Estrella and Bibim Soul Bunsik Korean Street Food are all gone together with very short-lived “Katsuya” and “Yucatown.”]
My all-year round favorite dish at the ThaiNery is tasty eggplant tofu over rice $15 (used to be $10) which imhv is a delicious, affordable and “safe bet” ingredients wise. The owners are a middle-aged sliding young couple originally from Thailand and several cooks currently and in the past are Yucatecos who have appreciated how to cook authentic Thai through “combat experience” with an attitude to learn, improve and master. 🫡
Support our backbone mom-and-pop shops as we ordinary citizens can make a difference and leave big shot businesses to the wealthy elite & politicians😉 such as the food court which is a silhouette in of The City’s economy in “reality check” (*not wishful thinking of so-called “rebound”). [Sabes que? “Tanto tienes tanto vales.” The Mid-market is literally dying{Emporium/San Francisco Centre is dead. Period.} so is South Market while Chinatown, Union Square/Downtown, North Beach and many other neighborhood commercial strips such as Richmond (Balboa, Clement, Geary) Mission (16th to 30th), Castro, Haight-Ashbury, Sunset (Irving, Judah {9th & 43rd}, Noriega, Taraval), Bernal/Excelsior (Cortland, Persia, Geneva), Noe Valley, Glen Park, Ocean, Parkside, San Bruno, Paul, West Portal, etc. are merely struggling except Japantown and Stonestown are arguably just returning to normal.] ⚠️Under the circumstances, fasten up your seatbelt & save your💰for rainy day! 👍“

“Excellent food and excellent people. They were able to make my thai noodles veg and it was tasteful. My son had a soupy pork noodles and hubby tried green curry chicken, they were all flavoursome. One of the best Thai food we had. And pls do try their fried banana with ice cream desert. They do it fresh and was yummy.“

“The food are always tasty.“
