We are a family of 3 visiting from HKG to SFO, and on the occassion we visited on the last night of our trip (late on Monday 9 July 2018) before we head to SFO airport for our flight back home. The restaurant was almost...empty at 9pm and the decor was interesting and comfortable.
Amongst the food we ordered, the Tomyumgoong tasted not authentic, and the Pad See Eeeww was not good. We found the noodles at the Best Thai Noodle Restaurant down near Geary St Union Square to be a lot better.anyway, the measure of a good thai restaurant are their noodles and tomyumgoong.
The meal was OK, the bbq chicken very good we enjoyed it. However upon leaving the restaurant, 3 young Thai boy waiters demanded that I hand over USD4.50 in tips which were our change in a threatening manner, by standing guard over the exits. it was myself with my wife and 3 year old daughter. I found the gesture unsavory and being the last meal in SFO at the end of our 2 week holiday, not nice. One waiter even scolded me and said that I must remember to give sizeable tips each time in SFO.
We found this restaurant through YouTube, when Anthony Bourdain visited and did a documentary. We are still glad we visited, as it claims to be one of the Thai institutions in SFO but the visit would have been nicer without the "waiter-tip" incident.More
