This place is consistently delicious, consistently fast and the proprietor is always friendly. There is no indoor seating — or outdoor for that matter — but it’s super convenient to call ahead and pick up from the window on the sidewalk. I like to walk my dog over there and grab my lunch order. Breaks up the workday! I love the panang curry with tofu 😊
We decided to go here because of the reviews. I have been on the search for a laab chicken salad with Thai hot spice like I used to get in San Antonio. I finally found a place that makes it delicious. The owner and his wife were extremely kind and it was made fresh. My husband got the drunken noodles with beef and i kept stealing bites of that too. The meat was tender and the noodles were so saucy and good. I grabbed my order and went to the car and the owner chased me down because he forgot the dumplings and I'm so glad he took the time because my kids ate those dumplings so fast licking their fingers and asking for more. I am definitely going to be going back and trying more dishes. The customer service alone was worth it.
Great location in the heart of Nobhill! It was a walk up window situation which was totally fine as we were planning to do carry out. The owner greeted us and took our order! He was very friendly and welcoming. We got the chicken drunken noodles and shrimp red curry. We ordered the drunken noodles level 4 spicy (spiciest level) and they were so good! Perfect amount of heat for spicy food lovers. The red curry had a depth of flavor that was to die for. We live close by so we will definitely be frequenting anytime we crave Thai food.
Amazing pad thai, sweet like honey and perfect spice level. Probably the best pad thai I've had. Also got drunken noodles that are amazing. Will be back.
Good stuff!
It’s a bit pricey for takeout, but every business everywhere is fighting that battle.
Will definitely go back.
Boy oh boy, incredible food as always. Red curry with shrimp and tofu pad Thai, two favorites with quite a lovely taste. Usually spicy 2 is spicy enough for my household. Unfortunately, tonight’s pad Thai order to go was (maybe…?) half full, so one star falls.
Salathai— increase your prices if you gotta! We understand! We’ll pay more for a full dinner portion rather than pay the same amount for less food.
Thanks for a great dinner, nonetheless!
I've eaten a ton of Thai food across the US, and I have to say this is the best pad thai I've ever had. The flavors were just amazing and the people were super friendly. Thank you!
Sala Thai is no longer a dine-in restaurant, and post COVID lockdown, is exclusively an order to go restaurant.
The food is still "Hole-in-the-Wall" homemade Thai style. Vegetarian/Vegan options available.
I've been going their since 2004, and the owner and his wife are incredibly sweet, and take pride in their cooking. Lots of love in those dishes. You will be pleased!
Great authentic Thai food!!! Probably the best in town. (6 years ago)
Just visited the new location for take out… and I still love it. The owner is great. Really nice people!
Great curry dishes!
Eggplant Delight with Chicken was awesome.
if i am getting pad thai, i only want it from Sala Thai. it is consistently good, and i personally like it more than pad thai from anywhere else in town. i also like to the garlic shrimp. we always order these two dishes.
peter, the owner, is always so nice and our order is ready quickly. also, i think cash is preferred? but he also accepts card payment.
Wonderful pad thai! The owner is a delight if you have the chance to have a conversation with him. Their food seems a little spicier than other Thai places, so you might want to take your normal spice level down a notch. Definitely worth the visit. I'll be going there again.
Owners are super kind & the food is always amazing!
Such nice people. The Panang Curry and pad Thai was awesome!
Good Thai food, not the best I’ve ever had but still tasty. Portions were medium sized, and priced fairly in my opinion. Owner was very pleasant.
Such a great restaurant. We regularly eat here for many reasons. Number one is the always friendly proprietor who will never greet you without a smile on his face. Number two, the food is always consistent and very delicious. The dine-in restaurant is nothing fancy (we usually get take out) but overall I think that the pros greatly outweigh the cons.
My friend ordered a Drunken Noodles and a Pad Thai. It was pretty tasty and it was made pretty quickly. The guy at the window was really nice and waved out the window at my friend because it was cold and he didn't want to stand outside. My friend asked for it to be spicy and he says it was a good level of spicy (he has a taste for spicy).
We went for lunch here after reading the reviews.
This place was outstanding. For $6.99 each, we had lunch inclusive of a spring roll, soup, a main course, and a dessert. The food was fresh and delicious. The service was prompt.
There is a nice selection of dishes and - as mentioned before- you choose your spice level.
It is our new favorite Thai place and I would highly recommend it to others.
