This is one of my favorite restaurants in San Francisco. While I don't live in the city anymore, I still go there to eat.

Panang Cury- A classic pairing that tasted as you would expect. Mild spicy to those that may be more sensitive to spice level. A nice local place with a nice lunch menu. Was originally going to get that but didn't want to eat too much and noticed this rice plate option on the menu for lunch. Next time I come I will try the lunch combo but this definitely helps fill in that light craving I had. Service was speedy for lunch which I appreciated. As with most places with SF, street parking limited and some streets you have to pay but there are some that is 1hr parking. So just have to go around a bit. read more

Service was friendly and courteous Can get busy at night, 4:30-6pm is not filled yet easy to get a table Small cozy place Food -Papaya salad was ok -pad Thai not really flavorful, a lot of bean sprouts -sweet pumpkin soup is a hot Tom kha coconut soup with pumpkin pieces added into it. Had to get this because it sounds interesting and I'm always up for trying something new. Appreciated trying, but after I still prefer the traditional Tom yum or Tom kha soups -pad see ew smelled fragrant right off the wok when served Street parking read more

Love love this place, the portions are good, prices are welcoming and it tastes fresh. And their food is nice and spicy, sometimes can be a hit or miss depending on the place, but here they do it right. Its a pretty small place so there may be a wait or have to squeeze a bit but its worth it for the vibes and food. Want to make this my regular Thai restaurant! read more

Not bad!! A great place for a casual weeknight dinner with my husband and a friend. We ordered 3 dishes total. Nothing really stood out to me, I really like the sweet potato fries! Its thick cut and so crispy. The stir fry wok dishes was pretty salty so I probably wouldn't order that again. Curry is good but also on the saltier side. Overall, would come back again for a casual weeknight dinner but probably not anytime soon. read more

We usually get take out food and really enjoy it. After eating in for the 2nd time I thought it was time to share my experience! The atmosphere itself is clean and pretty plain in a good way. For a mom and pop like shop, they take great care in fixing rips in the booths and keeping the space clean. The service is amazing. We came at lunch and the person who usually serves us was there. She's really sweet and despite working alone the day, she came by often to check on us. The food was great and well priced! We got the lunch special that day, I got the salad with cashew nuts chicken and my partner got the coconut soup with garlic and pepper beef. We liked the soup/salad starters and our entrees had great meat and fresh produce. Incredible "wok" taste. I was surprised how tender my partners beef was! We will definitely keep coming! read more

My Thai spot to go in the mission! I have been coming here for the past couple of years and the food is very consistent. Favorites are crab fried rice, pad kee mao, hurricane beef, and country steak. read more

Great food! Got pad Thai, yellow curry, spring rolls and mango sticky rice. Everything tasted great! Good portions and everything g was fresh. Would definitely eat here again Ate so quick I forgot to take pics! read more

My go-to Thai spot in San Francisco. Every single thing on the menu is amazing. Even as a vegetarian, there are so many options. My favorite is the Papaya salad, Tom Kha soup, and Thai Chili Basil tofu. They have extended hours and also offer their own in-house delivery service (save on the Doordash/UberEats fees). The place is relatively small and casual, but still a good spot to sit in and eat. Note: the Tom Yum soup is not vegetarian read more

What a lovely spot tucked in the mission! The lunch combo is a steal! I had the yellow curry lunch combo with pot stickers and the coconut soup Everything was delicious! Pad see ew was also scrumptious. The food here is tasty and affordable. What a lovely combo! read more

...never had a bad dish here, sit down or take out...service is quick and helpful if you have a question...recommend...

I came in for lunch today with my fiancé's niece. I was craving Thai food, and I thought I'd be sure to find some in the Mission. Chili Cha Cha 2 had good reviews, so we decided to give it a try. If this review were just for their customer service, it would be 5/5, the woman who took our order was so sweet and helpful, and I appreciated her positive attitude. I ordered the pineapple fried rice and asked for it to be spicy. Unfortunately, it was not spicy, the flavor was bland, and it was greasier than needed. The ambiance and decor were also bland and neutral. Overall, the experience is not something I need to repeat in hopes of improving. I'm glad other people seem to love the food, though! read more

I always get the lunch special of pumpkin curry with soup and salad. The pumpkin curry is really delicious and I like to get it veggie only. Comes with a great coconut milk and lime soup and I get salad rather than the heavier lunch starter options. Plenty of tasty food. Service is always good and servers are pleasant. Bare bones atmosphere. Nice neighborhood spot. read more

Super satisfied with this place. Ordered pick up 10 minutes before their midday closing and they still took the order and made it very quickly. I got Pad Thai, my MIL got the pork short ribs, and my wife got the lunch combo with coconut soup, yellow curry, and rice. All three dishes were delicious. The coconut soup was filling and flavorful, the curry was hearty, and the pork ribs were delicious and tender. The pad Thai had a lot of what tasted like tamarind sauce (?) but I love tamarind, so I really liked it. The interior seemed nice and like a good place for a casual lunch. There were a lot of customers who seemed to be enjoying themselves. I will definitely be going back. Even writing this makes me want to try some other things on their menu lol read more

Service is prompt and servings are huge! The lunch combo is the perfect choice if you're looking to try a couple things on the menu. If you know what you like though, the entrees are the way to go. It can serve 2-3 people, but you may not want to share because our dishes were tasty! We tried the lunch combo: house salad, crispy tofu, and chicken pad thai noodle and the beef pad see-ew. This is the type of place I'd bring my family too. It has a homey ambiance, great for casual-catch ups. Parking is limited in this neighborhood, but even if you park far, it's usually sunny in this area which makes for a nice walk. read more

I thought this was a cute Thai place in this neighborhood. They had pretty quick service and good food portion sizes. I had the tofu pad ke mao. I liked the flavor, but wished there was a little bit more sauce and spice. They have vegetarian meat options as well if that is what you enjoy. Overall, I enjoyed this meal and definitely recommend to other vegetarians looking for a Thai place! read more

I went for the Chili Cha Cha Spicy Pan Fried Noodle. It's packed with egg noodles, duck, veggies, fresh chili, and basil. It's got a real kick to it! read more

I ordered delivery, and it was super fast. The food was also very good. I ordered a green curry with vegetables, and a yellow curry with chicken. The green curry was my favorite, it had so much variety of perfectly cooked veggies and also had a hint of spiciness even at the mild request. I've had it at a medium spice level on a past order, and that provides a solid warming of the mouth that lingers, in a good way:) I will keep order my Thai food from Chili Cha Cha 2 and you should too! read more

Super flavorful, good portions. I ordered for pickup so I can't speak on the ambiance but the service was really quick! read more

Chili Cha Cha 2 - Pad See-Ew - Thai Near Me - San Francisco, California

My favorite Thai food spot in the mission. I always go for pumpkin curry or chicken pad see ew with a Thai iced tea w/ coconut milk

The ambiance gets a 3, but the food gets a 5! No frills, very casual restaurant with some of the best Thai food I've had. Came on a Sunday afternoon with a group of friends and we were seated immediately. The service was prompt and our food came quickly. Everything was delicious. I ate so fast and completely forgot to take photos. Lol I ordered the lunch combo and selected: - Green Curry w/ duck: super flavorful, just the right amount of heat, and the duck was perfectly cooked - Veggie Crispy Roll: didn't feel super heavy or greasy, nice and crispy, amazing sweet and sour plum sauce - House Salad: typical house salad, it was fine. I really liked the dressing. - Coconut rice: great coconut flavor, not overpowering, texture of the rice was just right We also ordered the Fresh Spring Rolls which were, in fact, very fresh/refreshing. The veggies were crisp and the homemade peanut sauce was great. Definitely grab a bite here if you're in the area! read more

I've been to this place twice and have to say this might be my favorite Thai place in the city. The first time I went, I challenged myself and got the spicy Pad See Ew and it whipped my ass - so much so that the waitress got me a Thai tea on the house because it was too spicy for me. However even with the spiciness, I could tell that the flavor was on point. I went for a second time for the same dish and it was just as tasty as the first one. Furthermore, the price and the portions were really reasonable. Definitely recommend this place if you're in the mood for Thai food! read more

Self-proclaimed noodle head. This is where I go for pad see ew - no carrots, veggies and tofu a plenty - just the way I like it. I order thru their website and delivery is always on time...sometimes early! Staff are always pleasant dining in or to go. Get your noods here! read more

I accidentally found this place when I was looking for Thai spots near me. The food is fresh and delicious, and the portions are so good for the price you pay (thank you!). The service is attentive - I've gotten both take out and dine in. Tom Kha Gai is heAVY on the coconut milk though - I know it's a main ingredient, but I felt like I was drinking a can of coco milk. read more

I have been on the hunt for good Thai food in SF for a while now and think I finally found a delicious spot! I have ordered from them only once so far, hoping my future experience live up to the first one and this eventually becomes my go to for Thai food. This review is for takeout. We ordered a bowl of the veggie Tom yum soup, a plate of tofu pad Thai and the chicken green curry fried rice. Tom Yum was hot and sour with a good dose of veggies like I like it. Pad Thai came with a generous topping of peanuts and bamboo shoots. In the takeout box, the rice noodles started to stick together and started to lose its noodley texture, probably because they were placed hot and packed tight. We didn't mind it, just something I noticed. The star of the show was the green curry fried rice. It was spicy and had an explosion of flavors. If you want to get one thing from this place, go with this. Portions are generous. read more

delicious and such friendly, smiling service! Interior is spacious and homey. Highlight was the tornado beef with cute sriracha art drawn all over! Everything was flavorful and filling, and the lychee iced tea was the best refreshing drink to wash everything down with. My only complaint is that I always wish there was a better fried chicken to fried rice ratio in the fried chicken over fried rice dish! Nonetheless, 10/10 would come again! read more

Chili Cha Cha 2 makes people fall in love. If you're tryna swoon a potential romantic interest, this would be the place to take them to, to tip the scales. Man! The roasted duck plate was the one that kept coming me back. It's one of those options that isn't always on the menu so keep a good look out for that one! If you can't get it, try the duck salad. Speaking of salads...If you're just starting to get to know this place, I'd recommend beginning with the mango shrimp salad. I like it spicy but make sure you ask to adjust to your preference. Get the Thai samosas. You won't be disappointed. Chili Cha Cha fried rice and the pineapple fried rice are a burst of complex flavors playing together in your mouth. The Tom Kha here is *chef's kiss* perfect! I would work here just so I could have an excuse to eat here more. They clearly have my heart. read more

I went here last Thursday night at about 9:00PM, an hour before closing. No one in the restaurant. I ordered a cashew nut duck dish w/ steamed veggies on the side. It was so sweet, too sweet. If it was only sweet, no problem. However, it was like they dunked the entire dish in salt and marinated it in vinegar before serving. Oil was visibly pooling at the bottom of the dish. The amount of seasoning and oil in the dish made me think they were masking the taste of expired food. I found out later, after an interesting trip to the bathroom, that was the case. Water was served in scratched plastic water cups. I do not recommend this business. read more

Good fresh food, lots of options for lunch specials. Staff have always been polite and helpful!

I usually order takeout, but last week I decided with my friend to eat inside the restaurant. I tried the lunch special and I will say the combination is good. You can start with soup or salad and then get an appetizer and main course at the same time. I tried the salad which had a creamy dressing. For the appetizer, I tried the tofu spring rolls which were delicious, and the sauce on the side was rich in flavor. For my main course, I got chicken yellow curry with brown rice, which is my usual take-out order. As always it was delicious. This is one of the best places to try curry dishes. The service was pleasant and the food did not take long to be ready. The restaurant is quite quiet which allows you to have a nice chat. read more

Chili Cha Cha 2 - Lunch special - Thai Near Me - San Francisco, California

Cute little place in the Mission. Service was wonderful. The fish cakes were pretty tasty but wished there was sipping sauce. The Pad Thai was on the sweet side but it was still yummy. I asked for a side of lime and they gave me a whole lime (very generous). We also had the Panang Vegetable/Tofu Curry that was flavorful. Would love to come back again to try the Crab fried rice and the Green Curry fried rice when it's carb day! read more

This quaint restaurant was very clean and had a quiet atmosphere. There was one other person in the restaurant. I was able to get a table to myself. They had a lunch special which was reasonably priced at 15.95 and includes soup or salad, appetizer and entree. Employee was attentive and I received my food quickly. The veggie coconut milk soup surprisingly had a tart taste to it but was good. The veggies were not over cooked. My spicy eggplant with tofu was great but the tofu was a little bit over cooked. Potstickers were great. It was enough food for me and filled me up. read more
