    Thai Iced Tea
    Adam B.

    A nice reliable standard in the Castro. Perfect for a last minute drop in when the other restaurants nearby have a wait. It's not the best Thai or even destination-worthy, but it does the trick. Money Bags: Such a fun appetizers. Looks like those gold bags in 8-bit video games. Tastes great too with crunchy exterior and lots of savory ground meat. Chicken Larb: My kind of salad... since it's mostly meat! Though a nice bit of herbs, onions and spices too. Tom Yum w/ Tofu: Broth was good, but kinda felt like too many veggies. Kinda wish there was more of that slightly sour broth. Pad Thai Shrimp: A classic. Sweet chewy noodles. A decent amount of shrimp. Real comfort food. Red Curry w/ Beef: Really enjoyed how this was such a soupy dish. Like even a higher liquid-to-solids ratio than the tom yum soup. The beef was tender. The curry packed a nice kick, even at mild (ordered by my table mates). Sauteed Eggplant w/ Pork: I'm normally not a big eggplant fan, but these are delish. So tender and soaks up all the nice sauce. The pork was thin sliced and kinda reminded me of the beef. Pineapple Fried Rice w/ Chinese Sausage: Didn't want to order a bunch of white rice sides, so we got this. An interesting mix of flavors. The Chinese sausage rounds really was a dominate flavor. Thai Iced Tea: Creamy with a nice jolt of sugar and caffiene.

    Great location to find parking, in my opinion. A few of us found parking just up the same street. We were a group of 20 - 25; they broke us down by table making it easy to order and not overloading kitchen with all those orders same time. They handled us beautifully. The portions are plenty for one person. The servers are very friendly and we waited for nothing. I had the pork panang curry and shared the 4 piece spring roll appetizer. Restaurant and restrooms were clean. Our group here's every year for a few years. We'll be back next year!

    We ordered last minute delivery from DoorDash and it cost $180 total for 4 entrees (below), two chicken satays, and two servings of rice. Plenty to feed 4 adults and 4 toddlers. * Pad Thai - 4 stars, good, thinner noodles, chicken fairly moist. * Pad See Ew - 4 stars, good. * Pork Belly - 3.5 stars (pork got soggy in the broth). * Green Curry - 4 stars, legit spicy! * Chicken Satay - I didn't have any but the kids were practically fighting over these!

    Saw the sign that they have been open for 36 years so I had to give it a try. Boy am I happy I trusted my instinct. This place is so homey, employees so kind, environment is picturesque and overall an amazing place. Spring rolls phenomenal, packed with ingridents, incredibly fresh and generous potion! The peanut sauce was also homemade and amazing. I got their egg noodle with yellow curry, this was the best curry I've ever had in my life. The balance between sweetness and heat was perfect. It was thick and combined amazing with the fried crackly noodles and the soft egg noddles. Highly recommend this place.

    I've only been to the restaurant that was my Annie's burgers. There hours were hit & miss. The food is excellent. I have yet to try the one in town.

    Pad thai

    I ordered the pad thai from Uber Eats and it was good pad thai. When they list "Thai spicy", it actually is Thai spicy and not mild downed. I usually have the issue that it's not spicy enough but this was a little too spicy for me! It was a good portion too.

    Finally stopped by this castro staple for lunch and I can't believe it's taken me this long. This cute corner restaurant is absolutely delicious. I asked for medium spicy and it was pretty hot! Loved the eggplant which soaked up the amazing sauce. Pad Thai was fresh with large shrimp and plenty of crunchy peanuts. Will definitely be back to try the weekday lunch specials.

    Pad See Ew + Garden Rolls + Thai Tea
    Melody L.

    Needed carbs for dinner before a half marathon and glad we went here! The chicken pad see ew was flavorful and not too greasy. The service was really quick - they truly live up to the "Express" in the name! Seems like it is more of a takeout place but there were still quite a number of people sitting in for a casual dinner.

    Pad Kee-Mao
    Cameron K.

    Quaint little Thai restaurant. Servers were friendly and noodles were good. It's a good place to grab a bite if you are alone. I had pad kee mao and it was the perfect level of spice

I only knocked the restaurant down by a star because the servers were pretty pushy with wanting us to leave despite the multitude of empty tables around us. Besides that, the food is really delicious. The papaya salad is amazing if you like spice! There was a great kick and acidity to the papaya salad distributed throughout the fresh vegetables in the dish. I highly recommend! The pumpkin fries were also a great choice: crispy fry with soft pumpkin inside, maintaining the overall pumpkin flavor profile. The sauce they provide on the side (sweet and sour plum sauce), cut through the fry but didn't overwhelm the pumpkin itself. For myself, I got the yellow curry with chicken. The curry dishes do not come with rice, so you will have to order that on the side. The curry is not only a generous portion, but FULL of ingredients. They do not skimp on the meat, potatoes, etc. Highly recommend trying Farmhouse Kitchen for some flavorful Thai dishes!

    Spent the day in the city yesterday with my two best friends to celebrate one of their birthdays…read more Went to De Young for Monet and were starving after so we stumbled on this fantastic Thai restaurant! Every bite and sip was delicious. We ordered family style and shared everything. The service was also fantastic, even though we got there late and didn't realize until the food was beginning to come out that it was last call, our server and all the other workers that came by were all so friendly and made us feel welcome. We ate quickly and boxed the rest so they could get home. What we ordered: Tom Kha soup - coconutty, creamy, a lil sour and a lil spice. Delicious. Fresh rolls - crisp and springy with lots of greens and tofu and a good peanut sauce to dip. Crispy pork belly sweet basil - the CRISP and flavor of this pork belly was to die for. Chicken larb - this was my favorite dish of the night. Heavy basil/herbs, just a little kick from the chilies, full on flavor explosion. I will be thinking of this dish for a long time haha. Beef Pad See Ew - chewy in the most delicious and favor packed way. Love pad see ew and this one was great! Pad cha scallop - Came out sizzling on a cast iron! This dish was fun and the scallops while small, were fresh and had lots of flavor. And finally, for dessert we ordered the black rice durian. It was all three of us' first time trying Durian and we loved it! Creamy and a little funky but the black rice and sauce emphasized its natural sweetness. Thank you to everyone at Saap Ver for adding to my besties birthday happiness! Can't wait to come back.

Lots of spices but also very rich with noodles and lots of veggies. Pork belly: 9.5/10 Very crispy pork belly. Some of the best pork belly I have ever had. Fatty pork belly goes very well with the lighter vegetables. The service was very good. The workers were very nice. The inside was cool with a modern design. The only thing that was bad (and part of the reason I gave 4 stars and not 5) is the bathroom. Very dark and smelled funny.

The interior is well decorated with Thai culture and with the darker tones of the design, it makes the restaurant feel quite fancy. 4.5/5 - Crispy Pork (Moo Krop) Fried Rice - Very savory fried rice dish. Spiced well and very filling. We didn't expect the pork to be cut so large and mixed into the rice, but it was very tender and easy to still eat. We would've expected the pork to be sliced maybe in half or fourths to make the dish feel like a "pork fried rice" than a fried rice + pork mix, but it still worked well and if you love pork, this will definitely be your fix! 5/5 - Pad Thai - We thought the restaurant nailed this classic noodle dish. Filling portions and did not overcook their noodles. You can taste each component of the dish, which speaks to everything not being under or overcooked.
