We started with the samosas- crispy and flavorful. For mains, we had Khao Soi Fried Chicken (my top favorite!), Green Curry with chicken, and Pad Gra Pao with beef. The Khao Soi was rich, creamy, and slightly sweet from the coconut curry, with tender noodles. Green Curry was solid, and the Pad Gra Pao was a great match with the beef and sauce. They let you choose your spice level--we went with mild, and it was just right. Portions were generous and filling. For dessert, we tried "Mama's Favorite" with sticky rice and corn, it was delicious and not too sweet. We also had their blue lychee drink which was super fun and refreshing. Service was excellent, and the space was clean, cozy, and cute. Prices are fair for the quality and amount of food. Definitely coming back!

look at this SPOON!!!!!? coolest spoon ever!!!!! I love this spoon!!!!! A fish spoon!!!!!! So beautiful.... So fish.... The fish spoon, it's so beautiful,,,, I love it so much, I asked if I could buy one (1) spoon and they let me,,,, they are so kind,... I couldn't leave without this spoon.... I love this spoon ..... My favorite spoon.... Best spoon ever ..... Beautiful fish spoon.... Also the food is AMAZING, the khao soi short rib noodles is a MUST order, the broth is rich, the short rib so tender and succulent, the noodles have the perfect amount of chew, the textures and acidic elements play perfectly. The seating is very limited but the tables move fast, the food is so warm and bright and the spoon is so gorgeous. We also had the mango sticky rice which is ALWAYS a banger!!!! Fish spoon

khao soi fried chicken was not bad, I liked the curry broth and the textures of both the fried + cooked noodles but the fried chicken was greasy and dry inside and soggy outside... maybe the other meats (beef or shrimp) would be better! my friends liked the pad thai and pad see ew so :")

A cute small modern Thai place in Inner Richmond. We ordered a few things on the menu including a few items that are a gluten free option. You can't tell the gluten free from the regular menu items! Of the menu, I really love the Tom Kha soup (so coconuty and tart soup) and of course, the khaosoi with fried chicken. The chicken was really crispy and almost just right (it was a tad dry). Would come back for these two dishes!

***NOTE: This page was originally Tawan Thai's, which was KhaoSoi's predecessor, but it was renamed instead of replaced, so the older ratings, reviews, and photos (prior to 12/2023 or so) aren't actually for KhaoSoi. Back when Tawan Thai used to call this place home, it was both good and bad that I passed by them more times than I could ever count. Good because I was well aware of them and had been meaning to try them. Bad because I'd seen them so many times, they started to blur into the background, like everything else as I'm driving by. So, it's more than a little ironic that when I finally make the effort to stop by, I discover they've been replaced! However, I have to admit - even though I came here to try Tawan, I was actually a lot more excited to try Khaosoi instead! From what I could tell from all of the times I would walk by, Tawan Thai had a mom-and-pop type vibe that, honestly, didn't look far off from so many other neighborhood Thai restaurants in SF. KhaoSoi, on the other, with its updated decor, looks much more modern and aesthetic, even if it lacks an organic sort of charm. Regardless, I'd be lying if I said I didn't find the latter's menu to be more interesting. While it's not nearly as extensive, I was super intrigued to try their namesake dish - I've never really seen other places that specialize in it! Of course, that's not to say the rest of the menu isn't interesting - from their apps and rice plates to their stir-fried noodle dishes and curry ramen, in particular, there were more than a few things I wanted to try! -- SAMOSA - Flavorful Vegetable Samosas Served with KhaoSoi Curry Sauce and Zesty Cucumber Dipping Sauce...$10.95 This is unlike any other samosa I've had, as it's more like a baked pastry than flaky and fried, but I liked it. The dough is great and the filling was terrific - moist, not super dense, and really tasty, especially with the dipping sauce. -- KHAOSOI FRIED CHICKEN - Creamy Coconut Curry Broth, Egg Noodles, and Egg Garnished with Crispy Noodles, Lime, Pickles, Chilis, and Shallots...$21.95 I love a good khao soi and, thankfully, this is pretty darn good! The broth is rich and thick, the noodles were cooked well, and I liked how the pickled vegetables and onions cut through. As for the fried chicken, it's crunchy on the outside and surprisingly juicy on the inside. -- PAD SEE EW with Chicken - Stir-Fried Wide Rice Noodles with Egg, Chinese Broccoli, and Savory House Soy Sauce and Chicken...$16.95 Not as good as I had hoped, but pretty solid. The portion is decent, they don't skimp on the veggies and meat (there's a good ratio), and the noodles were well cooked. Plus, it's not heavy on soy sauce either, though it's a little heavy on white pepper (I liked it, but something to be aware of). -- GREEN CURRY RAMEN with Chicken - Ramen Noodles in Creamy Green Curry Infused with Eggplant, Fresh Basil, Chili, and Bamboo Shoots...$19.95 Mangrove Thai's curry ramen has long been my favorite, but this isn't far behind! There's a fair amount of chicken and noodles, but the star is clearly the green curry, which was creamy and just packed with flavor! Also, not that I thought they would be bad, but the eggplant was almost just as impressive! In addition to the food, the service here has been fantastic. Each time I've been, the workers have been super friendly and the kitchen always gets dishes out super quick. In fact, the only knock I can think of was when my friend and I tried to come here one night and they were already locking up to leave about a half hour before their listed closing time on Yelp. Even then, we weren't upset, as it's entirely possible their hours are listed incorrectly on here or there was a reason they had to close early on that one night. While I have zero complaints about the food or the service, I do think it's fair to note that the prices for certain dishes does feel a tad higher than your average neighborhood Thai joint (like Tawan Thai). However, they aren't necessarily overpriced. Granted, $13 for four Chicken Wings feels a little steep, but everything I've tried feels pretty typical in this post-COVID world. Not to mention the fact that it all tasted pretty darn good! I'll definitely be back.

Good khao soi, it's in the name. Dish: 1) fried chicken khao soi 2) braised beef khao soi Logistics: -limited indoor seating (rec to make a reservation) -accepts card -has bathroom for customers

I love trying out new restaurants and this Thai Restaurant hit the spot. I didn't know this is a small restaurant but it's really cute and cozy. What suck me in is their Beef Rib Khao Soi. I never seen that anywhere and it was so tender and flavorful! Then we ordered their green curry noodles, basil chicken wings, crispy egg rolls, and pad sew ew! Everything is flavorful and delicious. Besides getting the Khao Soi, I love the pad sew ew. There was only one worker there and she was super friendly and attentive. I would recommend making a reservation and maybe you can reserve their Khao Soi Beef too. Please add me on Yelp if you like my vibe or IG @imjennime TYSM

Curry up and try thai this Thai spot! It shrimp-ly exceeded my expectations. First time trying Khaosoi and it didn't disappoint! The dishes were beautiful AND delicious! The khaosoi beef was literally fall-off-the-bone tender!! Limited order per day* -- lucky enough to try because we came right at opening! Khaosoi shrimp tempura was my fave! if this place was closer to me, I would see myself coming here often. Since it's a small quaint restaurant, it's not ideal for large groups (4+). I saw that they partner with doordash, uber eats, and postmates. It's located in an unassuming area but totally worth checking out. Service was very kind and sweet. Everything on their menu sounded so good!! I had to order a variety of items. - fried fish cakes with sweet chili sauce is such a good pairing! - chicken wings was so addicting! Sweet and tangy. - green curry ramen with tofu -- I'd order this again! - thai tea -- so addicting!!
