This place is one of the best Thai food restaurants in the city, we are local and we go there often. Pad Thai, pad see ew, curries and Praram are our favorites. We are always treated well, they are absolutely nice people. I would selfishly want to keep this hidden gem to ourselves but I feel this place should get the credit it deserves. They have recently renovated the place and it's now cozy and beautiful inside. read more

Quiet classy is the way I would describe this place. Understated and uber clean. Great service. Cocktails and wine available. I love me some cushioned seats with comfortable backs. No booths but the table spacing is fine. Dessert (only thing I had): Warm sticky rice and fresh mango. Perfect serving size with a huge scoop of coconut ice cream added to the side. Delish. The coconut ice cream was very flavorful with coconut shavings throughout. Tasted more coconutty than vanilla which I loved. Only suggestion would be a little coconut syrup in the sticky rice. But still great. I ate every bite. read more

3.5 Yelp Stars*** Stopped by here for lunch during my work break and came to My Ivy Thai for a quick lunch. I arrived in the afternoon time and ordered one of their lunch specials. Honestly, the portions were super tiny for what I got as a lunch deal. It came with a small vegetable soup, a small papaya salad, and the main item: bbq chicken and rice plate. Not the best Thai food I have tried but it was decent. However, after tips and tax, the total was almost $20. I would much rather pay for an entire plate of pad thai or pad see ew for that price. Service was good since there were no other customers besides me and one other table. Super quiet place but probably because it was close to their lunch break. Probably will try their noodle plates next time! read more

Clean restaurant. The owner was cleaning the window when we walked in at the end of the lunch hour. She immediately stopped what she was doing and welcomed us in. The order came quickly and the food was hot and tasty. Would come back. read more

Lunch special pad Thai is a steal and the flavor was very on point, not too sweet, somewhat nutty, not overly red bean forward. I love shrimp as protein and you get a lot of them! The lunch special also comes with soup. I don't know why reviews are so divided but this was solid for me. Service was quick, we were in and out in under an hour which was great for lunch. Inside is clean and not too loud. Street parking. No outdoor seating that I could see. read more

1.5 out of 5 This place completely misses the mark. The Tom Yum seafood was barely warm, and the Crying Tiger wasn't crying or spicy--it was dry, bland, and forgettable. More like Whimpering Cub. Despite only 4-5 tables occupied, the waitress was nowhere to be found--uninvolved, unbothered, and uninterested. As for the food: * Chu Chi Salmon - : Overcooked and underseasoned. Pass. * Thai Iced Tea - : Generic. Tastes like it came from a pre-mix bottle. * Mango Salad with Grilled Shrimp - : No balance of flavor, shrimp were dry. * Papaya Salad with Grilled Shrimp - : No heat, no crunch, no wow. * Combo Appetizer Platter - 1/2: The best of the bunch, and still just average. San Francisco has far better Thai options. I wouldn't come back even if it were free. read more

It was my first time trying the chicken khao soi. While I'm not khao soi expert, I find that it's just the right level of saltiness and mildly spicy. I love the mix of the al dente noodles in the soup/curry, the crispy noodles above, and crunchy sprouts. read more

Food is always amazing. Fast service, nice people. The place was super cute, dressed for the holidays. I am always craving this place, probably some of the best Thai food I've ever had. Best things: salmon curry, almond shrimp, mango sticky rice and can't forget my cherry temple! read more

1.5 out of 5 Major letdown. The Tom Yum seafood arrived barely warm, and the Crying Tiger had no heat, no flavor, and no reason to exist. Dry, dull, and disappointing. The restaurant was almost empty (4-5 tables), yet the waitress was checked out--slow, inattentive, and uninterested in providing basic service. Quick rundown of the dishes: * Chu Chi Salmon - : Overcooked, underwhelming. * Thai Iced Tea - : Weak and flat. * Mango Salad with Grilled Shrimp - : Lifeless and dry. * Papaya Salad with Grilled Shrimp - : No spice, no crunch. * Combo Appetizer Platter - 1/2: Edible, but forgettable. Thai Time on Clement Street serves a similar menu but delivers way better flavor, service, and value. My Ivy Thai? Never again. read more

Yes I recommend it good food and friendly people.There is a lot of Thai restaurants around the area but this one stands out.

In July 2024, I got salmonella from this restaurant, MY IVY. I ordered their "Lunch Special" BBQ Chicken with papaya salad, Thai iced tea, and Angel Wings. I was hospitalized and nearly died. I was unable to work for a month and lost a significant amount of pay. On top of that, the food and service were not great. This was a traumatic experience. I hope the restaurant takes food safety much more seriously so no one else has to go through what I did. read more

Food was amazing!!, but the lady that always takes everyone's order basically the host she is rude as hell, last time I was there, which was March 2 I had gone there to eat for lunch, everything was going well,before paying, I was taking my card out making sure I picked the right card before paying, the. she SNATCHED my card out of my hand. that incident makes me not want to go. My coworker saw what had happened and thought she was rude for doing that. I've never had someone that I am paying a business for to snatch a card out of my hand. It encourages me not to come, I would love to eat there again but she is just rude!! Its not her first time being rude to me its the second time, I don't know if she knows that I'm the same person that she's being rude to, but I do not appreciate that feeling, I found the spot for my coworkers and I to eat at times. Its a cute spot with good food but the host is a rude person, i prefer to haw the mae host he was really NICE!! read more

Finally it is open again! The food and service were both great! Our appetizers were Golden Calamari and Roti with Yellow Curry. Both were well flavored, crispy, and delicious. I also had the Tom Kha Soup with Shrimp. The coconut mixed well with kafir and galangal flavors...so balanced in flavor. Lastly, we ordered Shrimp Pad Thai. It was better than the other famous Thai Restaurant! It had abundant bean stalks, small cubed crispy tofu, onion leeks and well flavored noodles with peanuts on the side. Very well executed! Bravo! This will be our neighborhood gem! read more

This neighborhood restaurant was closed for over two years due to the building needing serious repairs. We decided to have dinner there and were totally blown away. It has come back much better than before. My wife had the caramelized lychee duck, one of their featured dishes. The duck was moist and the flavors were complex and amazing. I had the green curry with shrimp along with a side of jasmine rice. I've had many version of this dish; this one was one if not the very best I've ever had. The veggies were perfectly cooked with just the right amount of crispness. There were plenty of fresh shrimp in a delicious coconut milk curry. We very much recommend My Ivy! read more

My favorite fresh rolls, pumpkin curry and pad see ew. So happy they are back open! Peanut sauce is still the best in the city!

So I think the standout item here is something I take for granted at other Thai spots. It's the peanut sauce. Seriously. Luxuriant with an indulgent amount of chopped peanuts on top (photo: http://bit.ly/2I3k9DD). I could take that little gravy boat and pour it directly into my mouth. I probably would have if I was at home alone in front of the TV watching something on the Food Network like "The Pioneer Woman" where Ree cheerily makes cookies out of caramel corn and peanut butter. But alas, I am watching my calorie intake, so the peanut sauce came with the $11.95 Param which was a plate of steamed spinach and broccoli (photo: http://bit.ly/2Jz75mr). It was delicious if somewhat overpriced given that it was hardly an effort on the part of the chef. No tofu please. Having the sauce on the side at least allowed me to dip the veggies gingerly without overdoing it, no small feat. To complete my dinner, I ordered the $9 Fresh Spring Rolls, which were well put together with lettuce, spinach, basil, mint, vermicelli noodles, tofu, and carrot slivers wrapped in rice paper accompanied by guess what... yes, peanut sauce only it was on the plate in a pool for the rolls to sit on (photo: http://bit.ly/2KpvaNS). It also had a touch of chili to give the rolls a bit of a kick. Pretty healthy choices, huh. I can try the Pad Thai and Duck Curry next time. FOOD - 4 stars...healthy selections made especially delicious by their peanut sauce AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...modern space, not that big SERVICE - 4 stars...quite nice and friendly TOTAL - 4 stars...My Ivy is Your Ivy and Your Ivy is My Ivy read more

Came here for a weekday lunch as this place is close to work. They seem to be mostly a take-out place; when our group of 5 arrived around noon, the restaurant itself was almost empty and there were plenty of seats, but there were a lot of people coming in to pick up take-out orders during the time that we were there. The ambiance is quite nice and the area is clean and well-maintained. Service was on the slow side, and it was especially frustrating that the other 4 people in my group got their dishes super fast (within 5-10 minutes) but it took over 20 minutes for my pad thai to come out, so there was an awkward period where everyone else was eating. The pad thai itself ($10.25 on the lunch menu, with choice of chicken or prawns) was decent, but I thought the portion size was a bit on the small side and it didn't have as much flavor as other pad thai dishes that I've gotten. I also wish there were more peanut pieces for more of a crunchy texture. read more

Neighborhood staple that recently re-opened is as good as ever. Pad Thai, cashew chicken, pad see ew, all amazing. Highly highly recommend

We had Tom Ka, yellow curry, pad Thai, and a papaya salad. The food was great and the service attentive. We'll be back soon.

My Ivy is a gem on Divisadero street. They have a wide ranging menu of Thai dishes and have gotten quite creative with traditional dishes. They have a large selection of creative cocktails as well. While some of the traditional dishes aren't the best I've had, (I wouldn't recommend the pad thai or other noodle dishes) they excel at others. The golden calamari is easily the best calamari I've ever had. While it seems like something so simple, the calamari here can become the star of the show. Crispy, hot, and covered in a sweet chili type glaze, this and a bowl of rice is all I need to have a good meal here. However, the lychee duck and spicy catfish are also great dishes. All three of these dishes bring a different take to a traditional meal. And honestly this review is based off of the strength of these three dishes, as well as the fact that they have never been busy in the 5-6 times I've come here. If I could, I would give a 3.5 but I think My Ivy can easily become a true 4 star restaurant because my favorite dishes display the potential this restaurant has. P.s. parking can be quite difficult. read more

It is pathetic that Pacific Heights does not have good Thai options. You'll have to head towards the Tenderloin (at Lers Ros) or Inner Richmond (at Marnee Thai) to get the traditional flavors you expect from Thai food. I was in the mood for some light and healthy salad and the mango salad filled the craving. I was digging around for more grilled prawns, but they were generous enough to put two in there. (omg) Hmm. Yes, you can make better salad at home and for $9, there wasn't much flavor to it except lime and fish sauce. The chicken lettuce wraps are a great low carb snack, but the only dominant flavor in the sauce is Hoisin. The tom kha soup is passable. The amiable service is welcomed, especially when I'm exhausted from my core40 workout, conveniently located one block away. And the free thai iced tea is nice with the yelp check in. But I'd consider other dining options around the area and maybe curb my Thai food craving until I'm at Lers Ros. read more

Overall - slow service, bad flavors, okay price. It does seem a bit on the cheaper side, but I would rather spend an extra dollar or two to get a proper Thai food meal somewhere else. Pros - price. Cons - crab rangoon was cold in some areas close to the center. All I tasted on the pad kee mao was MSG. The basil chicken was bland and the rice was dried out. Definitely not coming back read more

I was starving after my doctor's appointment. Adult me wanted to get a salad after seeing the doctor, but Fun me wanted some fried chicken. After seeing the menu posted outside, I decided to try My Ivy Thai. The restaurant is nicely decorated and small. Since this was in the middle of the work day, there wasn't many people inside. I ordered the fried chicken that came with rice and a side of sweet chili sauce, along with the Thai iced tea. I got my order pretty quickly, and I was a little disappointed. It was a lot of chicken for around $10, but it didn't have much flavor. At first bite, I thought it was okay - mostly tasted salt. But as I continued to eat, I realized that's all I could taste. I had to rely on the sweet chili sauce for another flavor profile. But I was really hungry, so I ate it all. The Thai iced tea was good. I'm never really on Divis unless I have a doctor's appointment, but if I was in the area, I'd probably consider another place before deciding to eat here again. read more

First and foremost - what a fantastic deal on interesting cocktails like a Lychee martini - $5! Whoopee, even this cheap old gal can order a cocktail at that price. I'll start by saying I never say "let's go out for Thai food" but I might start saying that now... The entrees hover around $10 and they are HUGE. We stuffed ourselves and really had an entire other portion to take home. Ordered a beef curry and the pad thai, and aside of steamed veggies (for $3.50). We also ordered 1 rice, but I saw some red rice going buy that looked better - I will inquire next time. $38 for 2 cocktails, 2 entrees, 2 sides (rice and veggies) - that seems like quite a deal considering it served 2 of us with a huge leftover portion. One table over was raving about the fried banana and coconut ice cream. Next time we are in for that. I will suggest they turn down their phone ringer - so loud and they can't seem to get to the phone in time - so people call (RING RING RING RING RING RING RING RING RING - the gal finally goes to answer it- but too late no one there - she walks away, and then the process repeats...and repeats, and repeats) I can't imagine they get much repeat take out business ;) read more

Wow, this place just recently opened and I must say, I am definitely a fan. It's a great Thai place. Came here during lunch, it wasn't too packed which was great. They offer a complimentary miso soup too! What I ordered for lunch: - Chicken Lettuce Wraps with minced chicken, water crest, carrot, fresh ginger, green onion served with lettuces. Really good and refreshing. It wasn't too heavy and the sauce adds a kick to it! - Spicy Catfish Spicy - crispy catfish wok tossed with eggplant, bell pepper and kaffir lime leaf in red curry coconut sauce topped with crispy basil. Definitely recommend this dish! The spiciness was just right and it is also one of the chef's choice! I will come back here again to try different dishes. read more

This is becoming a semi-regular lunch spot for me. The menu is great,and full of options! The kitchen staff is quick, which is very important when you have limited time for lunch, and the staff is very friendly. The flavors from the various items are always very well on point! Haven't been disappointed here yet! Great place to eat alone, or in a group. Many great options for their lunch specials, especially if you're looking for options other than sandwiches, or cheap Chinese food. This place is quality for any occasion. read more

+1 for friendly staff, plus the food came out quickly and was fresh and hot! But I got the Thai fried rice to-go here and was thoroughly underwhelmed. The rice was pretty piece-y, chicken not flavorful and the dish was kind of greasy. Maybe try their noodles? read more
