I came for the lunch special, it was worth it. I got the green curry with pork lunch special, also, a tofu satay appetizer. It's a nice neighborhood hole in the wall with great service and inexpensive lunch rice plates. The lunch special menu was in the entryway in the window, not on the menu we had at our table. I'll be going back. read more

Thai Time Restaurant - Tofu satay appetizer. - Thai Near Me - San Francisco, California

Thai Time on 8th Ave & Clement is one of those cozy neighborhood spots that feels like a warm hug the moment you sit down. The fish cakes arrive first, crispy on the outside, tender inside, and packed with that unmistakable Thai herb kick that wakes up your taste buds. The Panang tofu is the real comfort hero here: rich, creamy peanut sauce with just the right touch of sweetness, perfectly coating the tofu and eggplant. The spice level brings a gentle, lingering heat that builds slowly, never overpowering, just deeply satisfying. Everything tastes homey, generous, and made with care like someone's favorite family recipe rather than a rushed restaurant dish. Thai Time isn't trying to be flashy; it's simply serving soulful Thai comfort food, and doing it very well. read more

Thai Time Restaurant - Thai Near Me - San Francisco, California

Thai Time is such a hidden gem in the Richmond! My partner and I stopped by for dinner on a Saturday night and, surprisingly, it was pretty empty, which honestly made it feel even more like a cozy neighborhood spot. We ordered the chicken pad thai (which had a subtle hint of coconut -- unexpected but delicious), the kao pad kra prow fried rice, and the pad ma keur. Everything was flavorful, well-balanced, and just hit the spot in that comforting, satisfying way good Thai food always should. It might not look like much from the outside, but Thai Time is one of those places you'll keep coming back to once you've tried it. read more

We were craving Thai food after some drinks and found this place! We ordered the Pad Thai with shrimp and a Pad See Ew with chicken. We also asked for making them spicy, and they did a really good job, the spicy level is at the right amount! Pad Thai is a stir-fried rice noodle with shrimp mixed with fried tofu, bean sprouts, egg, and peanuts. Their fried tofu was so good that it's crispy on the outside and super soft on the inside! The noodles are full of flavors, sour, and a bit sweet! And the portion is huge that I couldn't even finish it. read more

Thai Time Restaurant - Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - San Francisco, California

We visited Thai Time on a Sunday evening for dinner. The slightly cramped restaurant was fairly empty but there were lots of takeout orders. We ordered a pad see ew and pad thai, both of which we asked for spicy, and I would say they delivered. For both the noodle dishes, the flavor was solid and as mentioned, the spice level was perfect. I would say I have quite a high spice tolerance and it was hot enough to make me sweat a little bit. The portion sizes were quite large as well, which is a huge plus. If there was one thing I could critique, it would be that the pad see ew noodles were cut a little bit on the short end, but I think that comes down to personal preference. Overall I would say this is a great thai restaurant in the neighborhood! read more

Passed by this place multiple times. It was a carry out only restaurant during pandemic time and reopened for dining in last year. It is a small place with about 6 to 7 small tables. Tried it today and here's my comment: the service is good and the owner served me. The decoration is great too. But for some reason the food is not good. Being eating in such a small space, I expect to get very hot (not just warm or even cold) dish. But unfortunately the dish I got is just warm. Especially the pork is colder than the noddles. I don't know if they cooked my dish and let it sitting on kitchen table for a long time before serving the dish to me. But there's no reason they would do that in such a small restaurant. Another possibility is something I hope is not true: they served me leftover food. read more

Stopped for lunch as I was in town for the day. This restaurant is really small but food was tasty. They have lunch specials. I ordered the lunch special #13-PAD MA KEUR and the mango sticky rice. It wasn't bad. They have decent prices for their specials. Staff were ok. We found parking right in front. Came in around noon on a Weds. I would dine here again if I'm in the area. They have 1 restroom and you have to go through the kitchen to get to it. read more

Came here for lunch on a saturday. Was not busy at all and we were able to be seated immediately. We ordered 3 dishes: green bean curry fried rice, pad see ew veggie, and panang curry with tofu Panang curry with tofu was sooo good! very thick curry, generous amounts of tofu that were fried but not overly oily and delicious garlic rice to go with it. Green bean curry fried rice was also good, more like a red curry fried rice with beans added - was good but didn't blow my mind. Thought the pad see ew was a little oily but overall it was good just not as good as the other two. Very small space so would recommend not coming here with a big group. Probably wouldn't go out of my way to go again but it was good and I wouldn't mind revisiting. read more

A friend recommended this place when I visited San Francisco recently. I trusted him and viewed the website menu then placed an order - Pad see eew, Pad Gra Prow, and chicken wings with curry sauce! I got there about twenty minutes after placing the order and the food was packed and waiting for pickup. The restaurant is very small and. and I probably wouldn't have gone there if it wasn't recommended. It appeared to be a one man operation. I paid for the food - a bit pricey but that's the norm nowadays especially in San Francisco. When I got back to my destination and tasted the food - great! Not skimpy on the protein either! And spiced to my liking- medium spicy. So, don't let looks deceive you - Thai Time does not disappoint! read more

===TL;DR=== - 17. Yum Woon Sen Salad - 33. Hor Mok Talay ===TMI=== Surprised I haven't review this place yet but I've been here throughout the years. They've been operating since 1997 so let's keep small businesses running!! I've always been a returning customer for one thing mainly - Hor Mok Talay. Creamy, a tad spicy, red curry sauce covering delicious seafoods! Perfect with a side of rice to clear all the sauces off the plate! First time trying their #17 and it was also very good. A bit tangy, good for opening the appetite. Small restaurant so don't recommend a huge party - though I'm sure they can make something happen if so. I think they fit around 12-16 people inside. PSA: no restroom inside the restaurant. read more

Date: Sunday, May 19th. 2024 Meal: Late Lunch / Early Dinner Delivery Food For: 2 people Ordered: via DoorDash DoubleDash Time Ordered: around 2:45pm Time Arrived: around 3:30pm Delivered To: Outer Richmond 13. Som Tum ($13) 38. Gang Keaw: Chicken ($15) 47. Pad Gra Prow: Ground Chicken ($14) 74. Pad Thai: Shrimp ($16) *Brown Rice ($3.50) I first tried Thai Time about 15ish years ago. When I was craving Thai earlier this month, I decided to revisit as I didn't remember much about this spot. Delivery was quick as we double dashed, but they are in our neighborhood, so fairly close. Best dish hands down was the Basil Chicken. So flavorful. Plus this spot has huge portions! The curry and the pad thai fed us for multiple meals. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy the rest of the dishes as much. The curry was very thin. Almost soup like. The pad thai was mushy and a tad too sweet. I added a bunch of sambal to it. The papaya salad didn't have much flavor. 5 STARS for the basil chicken, 3 stars for everything else. I'll average it out to 4. REVIEW #3427 read more

Pad kee mao; Random little hole in the wall spot and decided to try it out. I always get pad kee mao at Thai restaurants. I normally just order pad kee mao without looking at what's inside and was surprised to see baby corn and bamboo shoots. I personally love bamboo shoots in my ramen but I don't think it mixed too well in this dish. Noodles were fair, not completely soft but not overly oiled. Wasn't spicy at all and I forgot to ask them to make it spicy. Overall, it's a decent pad kee mao. Good price and quantity but just didn't have that spicy and savory quality that I'm use to. read more

Bad services and making online oder to much late . making delivery diver waiting long time ..

Thai Time is a Richmond District Staple. I've been coming here for years and they are consistently amazing quality and amazing service. Post Covid they do quite a bit of take out, this is my preference right now as well, because their shop is quite small with limited seating inside. Nonetheless, they will accommodate for you. Recommendations: Appetizers - Chicken Satay (So flavorful and cooked to perfection all the time with the right amount of char while keeping the chicken juicy) - Tod Mun - Spring Rolls (only if this is your jam or feeling something lighter) Soups - Po Tak (Such an underrated soup and they do it justice here, literally perfect every time and I am awake at night craving this) - Tom Yum (always a safe option) Entrees - Green Roti - Gang Garee - Thai Time Fried Rice - Green Fried Rice - Kao Pad - Pad Thai - Pad Se Ew read more

This place sucks a lot man....this spot used to be good when it opened several years ago but please don't trust these reviews they are not good. The meat is not fresh at all. Their chicken breast is so overcooked. Their shrimp is not fresh and don't know how to cook it. Flavors have gone bland. They expanded the location and even expanded to Livermore but thats when things go bad and they don't care as much. Trust read more

This is, hands down, my family's favorite Thai Restaurant for 25+ years. When we're in SF everybody wants to go to Thai Time - even passing through or showing a visitor around the city. Excellent quality and flavor, and such nice people. I'm so glad they're still here after all this time. read more

Tiny place, pretty good food, except for the pad thai, which was bland. Decent service.

My coworker likes Thai Time, so we ordered our dinner. I had the roast duck over rice and a Vietnamese iced coffee. The duck was delicious. And it wasn't too fatty. The rice was good. I just wish there was more duck. The iced coffee was good and strong. Will order from them again. read more

This is my go-to lunch spot and I'm excited to see them open for dine-in! Thai Time is a family owned and operated restaurant offering affordable and delicious Thai food. The family is always welcoming and rolls out food quick before the group gets hangry. Very small and limited seating but appreciate the decor and vibe. Highly recommend their pad thai, chicken basil, and the red curry. read more

This has my family's go-to place for thai food for years, and it still is! Although prices have been shot up quite a lot since covid, we would still come back to support the local business. Of course, we love their pad thai and pad see ew. They give a generous amount of noodles and toppings, and the flavors are all there. I usually end up having enough for 2 meals. Another dish we love is their thai time wings-- fried chicken wings and drums in red curry with fried basil. It's a little soggy after bringing it home, but is still really good (definitely crispy when eaten there). The curry is super flavorful and is often left over, so I like to put some on whatever I'm eating for a change in flavor (usually pad thai or pad see ew). read more

Thai Time Restaurant - Mango Sticky Rice - Thai Near Me - San Francisco, California

One thing I hate the most is when stores are not explicit about the details of every price. I ordered panang curry that was $16. I was asked if I want rice, and I said yes. Rice was $3.50. I would rather be told the full amount for the full bundle of a curry dish rather than being withheld information. The rice was a lot that I couldn't finish. Pork in the curry feels like rubber. The restaurant is small with the servers not too attentive to the tables. read more

TL;DR: It's always a good time for Thai Time. Thai Time Restaurant ranks among my favorite Thai restaurants of all time. I found it many years ago when I was living in SF and exploring the city. The food is phenomenal, and the cozy local-business vibes makes it even more special. (Much though I adore Kin Khao and the empire of Farmhouse Thai restaurants, small business hit different) Ever since COVID, they have been offering take-out and delivery only; I think operating costs with servers, washing dishes, etc. is unfortunately too high. Although I miss the dine-in experience in this beloved hole-in-the-wall, I'm very grateful that they still offer their delicious food with the same extensive menu. The menu is absolute Thai food galore. The sections are organized into appetizers, salads, Thai time favorites, other a la carte, noodles, fried rice, etc... there are item descriptions but no pictures, and TRUST ME you literally can't go wrong. Besides your typical pad Thai and the like, Thai Time has a mind-blowing variety of Thai dishes that aren't easy to find at other places. Some of my favorites are angel wings, hor mok, Thai Time noodles, green curry duck. Other notes: - Portions are generous - Price point is a steal (excellent value, especially considering how overpriced everything else is these days) - Service is very friendly (I think it's a family-owned small business) - Parking in the Inner Richmond isn't the easiest thing in the world, but not impossible since the side street is less busy - The online order process was seamless. It's usually ready in ~15 min, which is about the time it takes to get there if you're in SF running errands. During busier times, it's ~30 min **For online orders, remember to order directly from their website (https://orderonlinemenu.com/ThaiTimeRestaurant) or by phone!** (Third party apps like UberEats and GrubHub overcharges and pays less to the actual restaurant) It's always a good time to support local small family businesses :) Especially when the food is to die for! read more

Best Thai in the city!! Highly recommend if you are in the Inner Richmond. Service is always quick

Incredible food, service and ambiance. The best Thai food in the city!! Highly recommend

Tasty, reasonably priced, good service. A favorite lunch time spot before or after going to the de Young museum a short walk away.

Food was delicious! Got the spicy pad se yew and the fried chicken dish + chicken satay! 10/10

Good, warming food. Good sized portions. Always friendly service. We've been getting food from Thai Time for years.

Shoutout to Lisa She was super polite, really on point with everything, and made the whole vibe so nice. The food was seriously delicious too -- like, every bite was a win. Loved her warm energy and pro vibes. 10/10 service & flavor read more

5 star! Classic Richmond go to for Thai. Fried rice, pad see ew, pad Thai, you cannot go wrong. My personal favorite is the Thai time noodles. These guys are open later than most AND offer free and fast delivery if you don't want to leave your home. No dine in option though so takeaway only read more

Just an update to share that even a year later, the food is amazing!!!! Pad thai tastes exactly the same and they give the same huge portions. The green beans with pork (pad prik king) was very flavorful, though it was very heavy on green beans and lighter on pork. The pra ram long song was kind of opposite - lots of chicken (but also lots of steamed veggies - cabbage, carrots, darker greens/spinach?/bokchoy leaves?). The peanut sauce was veryyyy saucy so you def need rice with the dish or not get too much sauce. Pad See Ew with beef, amazing. Green curry duck - amazing. I LOVE this place. For all these dishes, it was $87!! what a steal! Have meals for like 3 days for 5 people. The waiter at the front is super nice too. They only do take out but still find a way to make their service excellent. read more

Ordered delivery last night for family. Ordered gang panang, rad na, and yellow fried rice with beef. First of all, the food came at perfect temperature thanks to our Doorsdash delivery person. Arrived within 35-40 minutes. All dishes were mildly spicy which we wanted and it was to our liking. Had enough for leftovers the next day. I would definitely order again. Maybe go in person next time. Thank you Thai Time for the delish dinner. read more

Been eating at TT for years. Inside, carry out, through the pandemic, through it all. Their food is consistently excellent. Mom's in the kitchen making outstanding food. One thing: if you want it hot, you have to ask for Thai spicy. Gari puffs: OMG, they melt in your mouth (appetizer). Green salmon (curry): so awesome. Veggie pad thai (or any kind, for that matter)- And if you're feeling like you have a cold? Get some soup here!!! read more
