    Pad See Ew w/ chicken ($17.95) + Thai iced tea ($5)
    Belinda W.

    Ordered the Pad See Ew with chicken ($17.95). It was a solid lunch portion with a good amount of chicken. However, it was not as savory and sweet as expected. The added bok choy threw me off a little but it was still crunchy and made a decent filler. I appreciated the Thai Iced Tea ($5) was packaged neatly inside a to-go box for safe delivery and was not watered down. Also, this drink has the option to be made vegan which sold me without hesitation. Overall, I would order again for a reasonable and quick meal.

    Great pad see ew! It was packed with noodles and broccoli and other veggies. I wish it had more chicken, but overall the flavor was great and portion was decently large. Very solid lunch option. Would definitely order again!

    Red Pumpkin Curry with coconut rice
    Joey W.

    Red Pumpkin Curry with coconut rice - coconut was fragrant and fluffy with a subtle coconut flavor. The red pumpkin curry had bell peppers, carrots, pumpkin, and basil. I opted for tofu for my protein. The curry was creamy and had a nice kick to it. I wish there was more pumpkin (only two pieces of pumpkin) since it was a pumpkin curry.

    fried rice

    was not a fan of the fried rice or the thai tea lol. the fried rice was pretty bland and the tofu lacked flavor (also there were like 5 pieces of tofu). and the thai tea was too sweet.

    Isaan papaya salad with salted eggs
    Rudy H.

    I ordered through Uber Eats, So this is going to be short and right to the point. The deal of curry lovers combo for $16.25 I though was pretty decent. You get two half portion of two different curries + rice and protein of your choice (some at extra cost). I've also ordered Isaan papaya salad with salted egg which I though was pretty decent as well, even though Isaan food are supposedly to be spicy and pungent. This was not and the color was too light to be called Isaan Tam Mak Hong. Overall the packing and the value were pretty good, So it was a good deal for me using my 50% Uber promo on this restaurant.

    Curry lovers combo set

    I found this spot on Uber Eats, and it was surprisingly pretty good! I ordered the basil chili with beef and the curry lover's combo (green curry + yellow curry). Everything was pretty tasty and flavorful, although the beef was just a little bit dry. I can also tell that this place is able to keep prices low by not fully filling up the containers and by using cheaper veggies in the curries (tons of onions in the yellow curry). But this was a good deal, so can't complain about it!

    It's mid. Got the pad kee mow and it was a bit soggy and not very spicy, flavorful, or authentic compared to the ones I had in Bangkok. There are better spots in the city for Thai. Good variety for vegetarians and vegans though

    "Wok Wok-Fried Broccoli Protein"

    Ordered Uber eats. Some of the worst Thai food I've ever had in my life. Dry, flavorless, meat all fatty. Also checked "add utensils" to all 3 entrees and received no utensils.

    Pad Kee Mow (Drunken Noodles)
    Haasith S.

    The food came super fast within 30 min! The taste was on point and the noodles were the right consistency! The portion size was average. The veggies had a crunch to them. Overall one of the better casual Thai places in San Francisco! Pros: great food, great noodles , fast delivery Cons: can't think of much

    Pad thai

    A new hidden gem in SF, Basil Cart will leave you on a flavour journey to be remembered! I ordered from Grubhub, and this restaurant was a new option and I'm happy to support new businesses! Other reviews are pretty accurate, as I had a great experience ordering here. They currently have specials on Grubhub which enticed me to try them out but for the quality and flavour it's well worth it regularly. The delivery was timely and the owner included a hand written note, which was a nice touch and shows how much effort they put into their business! I tried the Pad Thai, Green Curry and Yellow Curry. The Pad Thai was very flavourful all around for some authentic flavour. It came with some peanuts and lime for garnish and was very fresh! Had some green onion and beansprouts as well, which I would have liked more of but not a big deal. The dish was also lined with a leaf (not sure what it's called) but also adds to the authenticity. The Yellow Curry had a lot of unique flavourness and rich body. Chunks of carrots and potatoes permeate the dish for some added richness as well which balances out the curry nicely. The Green curry is probably my favourite, as it also had a very rich body and taste as well. The bamboo shoots give a nice crispness to balance out the thick curry, but the flavour is the amazing point. A slight sweetness provides an upside to every bite, and combined with the slight spiciness and texture of the eggplant gives an awesome curry that's not too heavy and should go well with just about anything! The rice was perfect to my preference as well, as it was not soggy so that it goes well with curry. Very fragrant and fresh! All the portions sizes were great, so if you're looking for a nice flavourful and filling meal to satisfy your Thai cravings this is the place!

    Not bad; very flavorful! A bit pricey for takeout (food was not to share and quite meager) but that is understandable given the current climate. I loved the hand written note and the subtle spiciness of the basil chicken! Wish there was a little less sauce and less dry chicken. Overall, definitely hit the spot!

    Avocado Fresh Summer Rolls
    Savannah P.

    I was having a really bad day last week, so out of the kindness of her heart one of my best friends doordashed me some Avocado Fresh Summer Rolls and Khao Soi from Basil Cart. I think the summer rolls were the best I've ever had. They were incredibly plump, and the peanut sauce that accompanied them was also very thick (in a good way). The Kao Soi was delicious, but then again I don't think I've ever had bad Kao Soi. It's easily my favorite thai dish. Basil Cart was the pick me up I needed to get through a long, tough, rainy day. I would definitely order it for delivery again!

    Penang Curry take out
    Marie K.

    I enjoyed my meal when I was in San Francisco and I ordered it to be delivered to my hotel . I decided to walk to the place and eat there and ended it in the Mission area plagued with drug addicts on opioids who surrounded me . I found the place with Google map but found out that you cannot seat down and eat but do take out only . I was disappointed. I will never forget how the drug addicts were in the neighborhood. I had never been close to people like that . The restaurant is good for take out only . The prices are much higher than in Florida . The coconut rice was over $4 , the entrees over $12 for lunch . The quality was good though .

    Comes packaged separately. No mess.

    Decent, however, not great. Considering the prices they were very stingy with portion size. Disappointed it didn't have more oomph.

    Do you have any peanut free dishes?

    Great question! Yes, all of our dishes are peanut-free by default. Pad Thai comes with a side of crushed peanuts, but you can request it to be removed.

    #8Nite with Mommy!…read more Otra, On The Haight Server - Jenny, she was amazing. Help with recommendation on what to eat and drink. House Margarita - Grapefruit Salt Rim 2022 Pardas Dirty Queso- queso, guacamole, pico de gallo, cilantro, chips Pork Al Pastor Tacos- grilled pineapple, red onion, cilantro Baja Style Fish Tacos- beer battered cod, garlic-arbol aioli, slaw The deco was very nice. Walls was painted, with nice old fashion lights. A must visit.

    So my fellow Yelp community members have I got a new place for you to checkout...it's Mother's Day…read moreWeekend on a Sunday after attending Flagging in the Park at the National A.I.D.S. Grove (a MUST-DO) in Golden Gate Park...my friends suggested Otra in the lower Haight Ashbury district. Parking was a bit difficult to navigate but I eventually found a spot around the corner from the restaurant. I walk into a slightly dimly lit room but find my party right away. The bar is to the right of my table and I sit down and right away order from the menu in order to catch up with my friends. I chose their Spicy Pork Pozole a slow braised pork stew, white hominy, cabbage, and house chips. To wash it down I chose their Watermelon Ginger Agua Fresca it came with a rim dipped in a salt & spicy chili powder that reminded me of a margarita but it was a OTRAS BEBIDAS (non-alcoholic) and later I added their Horchata that was delicious with a sprinkling of nutmeg! My friends ordered their FRIJOLITOS CON CHIPS, DIRTY QUESO, & CHARRED CABBAGE which we shared...light and delicious dining. Other items ordered from the menu included Beef Tacos, Roasted Sweet Potato Tacos, Quesabirria Style Tacos, and my new favorite BAJA Style Fish Tacos (you must order them)...to finish the meal we ordered one of each...their rich and delectable FLAN & a slice of Tres Leche Cake...so rich and sweet but TOTALLY DELICIOUS! The service was friendly and the food was simply delicious! I unfortunately forgot to take snapshots of our meal but I have their menu because I had a lot of fun and I will definitely be making a special trip back to Otra!!
