This place was amazing. I came here to eat lunch, and I ordered the beef rib crispy noodles. The beef fell right off the bone and the food had just the right amount of spice. The waiters were pretty good about paying attention to all diners and the place wasn't too loud as they just opened. I would definitely come back if given the chance. The chicken satay was also a great app, but the peanut sauce leaned a bit sweet. It was a pretty solid option, though.

Pad See You. Very good
Winnie W.

Beautiful restaurant. Very good food, and good service. We ordered their Pad See Ew (rice noodle) - very good, and the Tom Yum soup (also very good). Great flavors; good balance of spices and not too salty or spicy. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with very comfortable and roomy seating. Also conveniently located at Embarcadero 4. Service is very efficient and friendly. Our water glasses were always filled, and our waitress checked in on us every now and then at the perfect moment. Very seasoned staff and very friendly and efficient. Good food. Good Service.... Recommended!!

The highlight of this establishment is the service. Never did my water get below half full without someone coming in and filling it up. The vibe inside is cool as well, feels pretty upscale. Only negative is the price reflects that. Food was great but in the pricey side, for a firm sponsored lunch this was a 10/10 but if I was coming back maybe I'd go somewhere a little more cost effective. Take a date here, or your business partners. Upscale vibe with stellar service and food that matches

Osha's Tom Yum Noodles
Nishant M.

Food is delicious but service is very poor. Ambiance is poor. It's hard to communicate with the servers and that makes the whole experience poorer

Thai iced-tini
Kathleen A.

I have been wanting to check out this spot for awhile. I love Thai food and this is a great location at the Embarcadero center. We tried a few dishes and enjoyed: Beef wasabi rolls- I like that the beef was the roll. No breading or rice needed. Wasabi had a good little kick. Pad see you: spelling through me off a little but the noodles were delicious. A little more broccoli would have been nice but the flavors were great. Crying tiger steak- beautiful plating and I was impressed by the flavor as well as the portion of the salad. That salad wasn't messing around! The rice was also yummy. Thai-tini: this is not quite the name of the drink I had but it was that iced tea inspired. The drink had good flavors as well as presentation. I'm glad we were able to taste the yummy items here and take a couple pics as well. The ambiance is nice and the perimeter booths are a great seat.

Dungeness Crab Omelet
Calli Y.

I can't believe I haven't written a review for this place yet. Seems a little odd. I've been here four times now. Actually every time I come to SF for work, this is their place to go. Each time the service has been great and the food also tastes good. Usually, we order everything family style so we can try all the items. The papaya salad is my favorite, refreshing and it's got a great kick to it as well. We also always get the Dungeness crab omelette. This one I feel like it's just OK for me. I do like the chunks of crab in it though. The calamari is huge. I'm shocked by the size, and it's always very tasty. We've gotten the Seabass, the smoked duck, usually a tom-tom soup, and a bunch of other items. I can't even remember. Great flavors. We also get the desserts as well. And our favorite is the banana and ice cream as well as the mango sticky rice. You really can't go wrong. I feel like they offer a great variety of Thai food. SYOY!

HH snacks
Andres N.

Came here for HH and it was just fine. The drinks are good but food is pretty mediocre. Calamari was very tough and rubbery, we couldn't finish it. The sauce it was served with was like a honey it was so sticky and didn't compliment the dish. Fries on HH were the best part. The Gyoza was ok but could have used more seasoning. Painkiller and mules were prepared very well. Nice location overlooking ferry building and embarcadero plaza. We were immediately sat outside for HH which was nice. I can't say I'd make it a point to return for the food. Grab some Happy Hour drinks, sit outside on a nice evening and you'll have a nice time.

Came here for a small appetizer, ordered the samosas. Came as 4. They were good but a bit dry, wish they had a sauce on the side to go with it. Service and staff was great. But this dish was so so: wouldn't order again.

"Thai Tea" Honey Toast
Sarah C.

came here around 7:50pm (they close at 8:30pm) and they were certainly rushing us a bit. food came out fast which was nice though. the decor and plating are very aesthetically pleasing, and there are plenty of large group seatings. the food was just average: - chicken satay ($18): very tender but the sauce was too sweet and sticky, barely any peanut taste - pad thai ($23): also too sweet, lacking depth of flavor - thai tea honey toast ($23): I liked the crispiness at the bottom, it was pretty small though

Loann H.

Wait I lowkey don't want to write this review because they're going to get soooo busy. I was looking for light appetizers and saw that osha was nearby. Been to the other location years ago and it's always a hit. Was pleasantly surprised when we went on a weekend and it was happy all day Saturday and Sunday. Monday - Friday 5-7 pm happy hour as well. It's so close to the ferry building and very walkable. Ordered the angel wings ($9) , fried calamari ($9) and herbal pork belly. $(12) there's $1.50 oysters too but had so much over the past month so opted out. I did bookmark this place as an oyster options whenever I'm back in the area though. I loved the sauce on the wings and the fried calamari was good. The pork belly was a dry rub type and a bit spicy for me which I didn't prefer but was enjoyable. I just can't handle spicy and I think I just enjoy pork belly in soy or something. So just an opinion, it was good but not my preference. Bathrooms were clean and there's a lot of space for parties/events or big groups. Also the receipt said "elevated Thai brunch served all day" waaah? Maybe I'll try that next time when we're hungrier.

Smoked Duck
Monique M.

Came here for the first time and i absolutely loved this place. Location is nice with lots of places to visit nearby. Obviously in a busy area of San Francisco so parking, transportation and traffic are a hassle but the views and location are still great. The restaurant itself is clean with a nice ambiance. Cute decor. We were a large party of over 15 people and they were able to accommodate us without a problem. Their food was amazing. Tasty, such great flavors and provided many dishes that were both common to Thai food, and also unique to this restaurant. Everything we ate had great flavor! Understandably the prices matched the quality and location of the restaurant. Staff was really great. Worked hard, stayed in top of our large table. Friendly to say the least. I would recommend this place for almost any occasion, for large groupsnor a simple lunch date. I am looking forward to coming back for more.

Happy hour drinks
Nina Z.

Amazing happy hour deal! They have happy hour on select drinks and food items Monday thru Friday from 5-7PM and all day Saturday and Sunday. We ended up getting drinks, splitting a happy hour platter, and ordering some drunken noodles from the entree: plenty of food for the three of us! The happy hour platter included oysters, calamari, chicken wings, and fries. Beautiful lush ambiance and we came during the holiday season, so it was all decorated for the holidays. Service was friendly. Conveniently located in Embarcadero. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area. They also serve brunch as well!

Osha's Tom Yum Noodles Soup
Kaman L.

I haven't been here since the pandemic began. I was glad that I visited Osha Thai recently. The quality of the food and the service were still good. The food that my party ordered were as follows: 1) Starter: Salmon roll (3.5/5) the portion of salmon is decent, the taste is a little bland but feels healthy when I ate it. :) 2) Starter: Angel wings (4.5/5) I love the robust taste plus the crunchiness of the wings. The sauce is perfectly done. I enjoy this dish a lot. 3) Entree: Tom Yum Soup noodle (4.5/5) was tasty with decent portion of shrimp, fish balls, minced pork and noodles. I haven't had Tom Yum soup for a while. Glad that I ordered this dish. 4) Entree: Duck fried noodle (4/5) was good but not as good compared with the Tom Yum soup noodle. I enjoyed the noodle with the sauce. The duck meat portion is good too. Service is good here. The interior decor was pretty. Our seating area was comfortable and away from the crowd that allows my party had a good talk. Only down side was the food here are pricey. But given the food quality and location, I think it worth paying the price. I will come back for sure.

I came in at 9am on a Friday with a friend and got seated right away. The place was still packed,…read moreso it took a little while to order. There is a good amount of seating, but the tables are quite close to each other (your neighbors will be eavesdropping). We ordered the smoked salmon toast and a florentine benedict. The salmon was fresh and the toast was stacked! My friend wasn't too impressed with the benedict, but it was good. The side salad that it comes with is actually delicious! And if you have a sweet tooth, order an ube latte or thai tea, and finish with a Sweet Dream. It comes with waffles and a side of fruits, ice cream, fudge, and whipped cream.

Here i am again, asking myself the same thousand dollar question, would I come back again?…read moreAbsolutely yes! "Say yes to the rest" will be my new slogan, "rest", short for restaurant Ok, here are the reasons: Food - 5 stars: order quite a few things. Steak and eggs. Steak was perfectly cooked and sofr and seasoned. It was also already sliced, which was super nice. Since I ordered to go. The eggs, the potatoes, the toast. Everything was Absolutely delicious. Avocado toast, was very delightful. Omelet was vary savory and delicious. And waffle was very good. Everything had flavor and the portions were generous. The presentation was nice, even in to-go containers. Prices - 4 stars: prices were just right, considering the cost of food. Steak and eggs was $30, but again, good portions and you can taste the quality. I always say, if your prices are up there, it better be worth it. And the prices were not high, just right, but they show for it. Facility and staff - 5 stars: obviously if you're eating at this place is because you're staying around locally, parking can be a challenge but jot impossible. Facility is very clean, nice and presentable and staff members are very nice. Only one suggestion to either owner or business manager. Find containers with perforations on the lids for it's me like steak and potatoes so that bread and potatoes don't become soggy with the moisture. Dont take my word for it, come give them a try, I dont think you'll be disappointed

Delicious Beignets & Breakfast!…read more We were visiting the area from San Francisco, and a friend recommended this restaurant. Get there early because it fills up very quickly! We arrived just in time before it started getting busy. I was especially excited to try the beignets, so I ordered the Beignet Flight--crawfish, cinnamon apple, chocolate, and the classic regular beignet. Très bon! They were all delicious! The crawfish had great flavor, with dough that was crispy outside and soft inside. The regular beignet was especially good--crispy outside, soft inside, just perfect. And definitely eat the chocolate beignet while it's still warm. When you bite into it, that warm, gooey chocolate comes out. So good! The coffee was excellent too. I highly recommend a latte with the beignets. My husband had the Eggs Benedict with deep-fried green tomatoes and bacon, and it was another level! The crispy green tomato with the eggs and sauce was such a great combination. If you didn't tell me it was green tomato, I might have thought it was an apple! We also loved seeing so many locals there. You know a place is good when the locals keep coming back. Highly recommend this restaurant to visitors and locals alike. Give it a try--you're going to love it!

You can taste the salt and I like that! Add the $2 jam. It's a tablespoon portion, but worth it we had the peach. The Plow- husband was very happy with this. 9/10 Mochi cake- 8/10 BLT- 6/10 - needs way more bacon and lots More mayo. They have indoor and outdoor seating and reserve outdoor for those with dogs.

Came on a Tuesday morning & the wait wasn't too bad for a party of 2. It was my bf bday and we ordered mimosas, we got ID and the waiter noticed it was his bday and said happy bday. We didn't expect a candle to come with his breakfast plate and it did & was so thoughtful & cute. I ordered the plow which has: two eggs, two lemon ricotta pancakes + plow potatoes with choice of house made pork sausage patties, bacon, or chicken apple sausage link. I went with the bacon and it did not disappoint The lemon ricotta pancakes were the star of the show so soft & yummy. My bf ordered the steak & eggs which has: hanger steak, chermoula, two eggs, simple green salad & buttered toast. We both grubbed & can't wait to be back to try the rest of the menu.
