I visited Regent Thai on a Thursday night around 6:30 PM and was seated immediately in their very spacious dining area. The service was fast; our waitress brought out the menus and a basket of complimentary shrimp chips right away. We ordered the Pad Thai with pork and the Ma Sa Man Neur, both of which were delicious and packed with flavor. Throughout the meal, the waitress was incredibly attentive, making sure our water glasses never went empty. There's only street parking around the restaurant and one clean bathroom stall. read more

Our company had a Going Away Lunch for a fellow worker. Our Director of Finance chose Regent That Restaurant. It wasa very good choice. Although I drove there with my VP, it is within walking distance of the office. Next time I go, I will definitely walk. Especially now that the weather is nicer. I can't remember what everyone had, but I'll review what I remember. For the table we ordered the Pad Mun (fried crab cakes). That was liked by everyone. The Deep Fried Spring Rolls were also a hit--very good. I had the Pad Khring (chicken) and it was excellent. The chicken was tender and the veggies were crisp. The zing of ginger is what put it over the the top. I usually order something like this my first time at a Thai place. If they get it right, I have faith that they can do well with other dishes. Now for the pics. read more

Regent thai was a quick easy take out spot on a random weekday night. This is not reminiscent of the most authentic flavors I've had, but is still delicious. I ordered pad see ew which I devoured before taking a picture that was quote flavorful but definitely leaned on the sweeter side. The gaeng phed pedal yang was a duck red curry that was very creamy and delicious, but not that spicy at all despite me asking for medium 2 chili peppers on the menu. Additionally if you want to order rice you need to order it separately so I'd say the value is just okay for the price. read more

I am sucker for a good pad Thai! I was so excited to find a place that has pad Thai near us, only to find it wasn't quite as good as the pad Thai I've tried previously. The tofu was quite dry and chewy, and the noodles stuck together in a huge ball, because they were so thin. I was really hoping to be pleasantly surprised. Maybe their Pad See Ew is better. read more

This is one of my frequent go-to Thai restaurants in the city where Thai places are common. One of the things that I value in a restaurant is consistency of quality and these folks always roll out high standards in their servings. And while there are so many Thai eateries in San Francisco in plenty of pockets around town and everyone has their favorites, I submit this post as a simple endorsement as a great place to try or include in your rotation. The food is very good with plenty of selection, the place is clean and the service is prompt with reasonable pricing. That about checks off all the boxes. read more

Came in with a girlfriend for the lunch special. It's a really cute corner place, lots of natural daylight & the decor is simple, yet elegant. I ordered the lunch special tofu pad ma kuer & asked w soft tofu and vegan. Maybe because I asked for the dish to be changed, I found it tasting plain. There was not much flavor in my dish. The waitress was very sweet and I will give this place another try. Wanted to split our bill & were asked to pay with one card. CC accepted read more

Nice little neighborhood spot. I've been going here for years. It has had its ups and downs the past few years. I think if ownership changed but I don't know for sure. I wouldn't say it is a place you'd drive crosstown to eat at but if you're in NoeValley it's good. Very clean and the inside has been fixed up. I think I they could use more waiters. Only one waiter and the kitchen staff had to help her out. But everyone was friendly. Went for lunch with a pal and the veggie pad Thai and chicken satay were both tasty . Try it if you're looking for a pleasant lunch in Noe. read more

This place was clean and inviting. We were seated pretty quickly for Saturday dinner service around 6pm. I ordered the pra ram with brown rice, which has been a favorite dish of mine for years. This was my first time trying it here. The veggies were cooked perfectly and the rice came out shaped like a heart. My protein was tofu and I was a little disappointed in the flavor and counted (only) five bites of tofu. The peanut sauce was a light flavor and it could have been bolder. Overall, it was a good experience but not very memorable. read more

Quaint little spot in the mission~ Food was good and they are able to accommodate big groups of people as long as you have reservation ahead of time. Decor was very cute and servers would regularly come up to us to checkin. They have a good selection of vegetarian items and can make a lot of stuff veg. They also had chips and a little dipping sauce in the beginning but unfortunately they are shrimp chips :( I got pad kee mao which was really good the flavor was def there they didn't come to play with the seasonings! and veggies were charred as well. Food came out relatively fast and they had little tamarind candies on their way out which were so delicious and a perfect mouth refresher. Prices were pretty good but I guess for the portion size it was accurate. read more

* date visited: 08.07.2024 * ordered: nuer gra prow service was super attentive and they were very kind, we had a large group and they were able to accommodate us well which was appreciated! the flavors of my dish were really good, i added some extra chili flakes but even without the addition, the dish was dimensional -- spicy, slightly sour, savory. the lemongrass, basil, and bell peppers added a lot of bright elements to the dish. the beef itself was not as tender as i would've hoped for and the portion was quite small for the price. read more

Me and my family LOVE Regent Thai Restaurant and order from there several times a month. My most recent visit I stopped by for lunch on Wednesday and the restaurant was bustling with patrons, as well as with folks stopping by to pick up take-out orders. It's a warm and inviting ambience with kind staff. I ordered the Gra Prow with chicken; the lunch specials come with a side of white or brown rice. I also ordered Pad Se-eiw with chicken for my husband. I can't give enough praise to Regent Thai for their fresh veggies and delicious dishes! read more

Love trying new Thai spots and this restaurant was on my list! I really like the pricing and plating but the portions felt a little small. Food also was a bit underwhelming with spice, even after adding chili flakes and paste it did not increase spice much. I like the meat and how they don't charge additional for beef. Tastes good, but was expecting larger portions because it's Thai food and I was still hungry after. read more

The trout was sooo yum! Not as spicy as what I'd think two pepper signs meant, but did come with fresh jalapeno slices. The sauce perfectly complimented the fried fish, and there were barely any bones at all. Dishes came out fast and we were able to make a reservation for around 15 people. The restaurant isn't huge, but is spacious enough and has comfy seating. There is street parking outside. read more

I ordered pickup from Regent Thai and was disappointed by some of the dishes lack of flavor and small portions. - Som Tum (papaya salad): Very disappointed that more than half of the order was literally just plain lettuce. The papaya salad that was there didn't have much flavor - Pad Se-Eiw: Ordered this spicy but tasted 0 spice. Overall thought this was bland - Double Cook Roasted Duck: Small portion but phenomenal flavor - Gai Regent: Not crispy at all (could've been due to it being take-out). A bit too sweet for me but was overall yummy - Gaeng Khiew Warn: It was alright. Tasted a bit of spice and wish it had more - Tom Kha Gai: Phenomenal - Pad Thai: Kinda bland Overall I thought most dishes were bland and I was particularly disappointed by the stupid amount of lettuce with the papaya salad. The only standout was the double cook roasted duck. read more

I've been going to Regent Thai for as long as I can remember -- literally since I was a kid -- and it's still my favorite food to this day. Hands down the best food I've ever had. This place isn't just a restaurant, it's a constant. Same incredible flavors, same welcoming atmosphere, and the same heart behind it all. Jean, the owner, has been running Regent Thai since the very beginning back when it was on Monterey Boulevard, and you can feel that history and care in every meal. The people here are genuinely friendly and make you feel like family, not just another customer. Whether you've been coming for years or it's your first visit, you're treated with kindness and warmth. If you're looking for authentic, consistently amazing Thai food with a real story behind it, Regent Thai on Church Street is it. I'll be coming here for many more years to come. read more

Very tasty lunch special. Fresh ingredients and affordable. Good service. Very nice and attentive. Clean restaurant with calm atmosphere.

Been eating here for years at least 10 years maybe 15 years. I seen them go through changes but the food is always hella good. Most of all it tastes fresh to me and made with love. Cute inside there, it's more modern now. I miss when they used to wear the Thai dresses. Anyway a MUST try is the tofu cho roos appetizer! Good curry and fried rice, noodles too and I really like the fried shrimps wrapped in paper. I always get take out here but when I did dine in they were friendly & quick. I might have to go this weekend! Update: 10/24/24 I decided to eat here and dine in this time but the food was not as good as I remember. So Im changing my rating accordingly. read more

Our friends got takeout from Regent Thai and it was good! High 3 stars. * Pad Thai - 3 stars. A bit bland, not a lot of veggies. * Pad Se-eiw - 3 stars. Very spicy! * Chicken Satay - 3 stars.

As much as my heart is set on giving this place a good review, the misinformation on the menu earned this place 2 stars in my book. I skipped the lunch special (available everyday till 3 pm) and went for the vegetarian dishes listed on the menu. I also ordered the Tom Yum soup vegetarian. When the food arrived, it smelled different and upon questioning, it was confirmed that both dishes contained fish sauce. I have never had a restaurant use fish sauce in their vegetarian-explicit dishes. After getting the entree without fish sauce, we were told the soup could not be remade. None of the soups, papaya salad, the crispy tofu (listed as vegetarian), and addtl appetizers could be made vegetarian without fish sauce. Apart from that, the dish was fresh although just decent quantity for the price. The Thai tea was refreshing and not overly sweet. The ambience was peaceful and away from a lot of hustle - almost felt like a suburban restaurant. read more

MY FAVORITE THAI SPOT! I could order here once a week if I had the opportunity to. Their Pad See Ew with tofu is my go-to. I always grab their spicy wings as well. Slowly but surely making my way through their selective menu but it's warming to know you'll get exactly what you want every single time. Definitely order ahead to make pickup easier considering this spot can be packed on the weekends. read more

I Love me a good Thai food any day.. But this particular place we went to tonight was just okay! I wish I could give it a solid 5 stars but for some reason it was kind of off night for me?!? However..my hubby loved the food! I'll explain my version of why I didn't find this place spectacular?!! We didn't drive far to get there... So far so good when we got a parking right in front of the restaurant! We see from inside the windows there's a few people inside having dinner! As we enter in..I proceed to the front of the desk where I guess you let someone know you want a table?!? Mind you.. it was a pretty long walk up there!! Finally..this lady asked us if we're doing take out or dining in?? I tell her...we're eating here! Then another girl comes out from the kitchen..smiling finally @ us..and says..you can choose any table! :)) We sat down and the nice smiley girl gives us 2 menus..2 waters and this delicious little dish of crunchy shrimp chips and a dip which I liked! As we're chomping on the shrimp chips..my hubby looks @ the menu of what we can order! I can't really see coz I forgot my glasses! Lol! :-0 I'll include the rest of the pictures of our food with a number and descriptions of what we ate! As my hubby orders the food..I ask the smiley girl I'd like to get a Thai tea! She was kind to give us one more helping of that yummy shrimp chips! Also..it did take awhile for her to come back to our table when we were ready to order..the smiley girl was busy attending to other customers inside and the other lady nearby the kitchen was busy too I guess getting ready the take out orders for pick up??? Which later I noticed about 6 different customers come in to pick up their food so I think it's great that they're busy tonight on a Tuesday?!? :)) Not too long that our food came right away..first..it was our Deep fried spring rolls and the SomTum which was shredded Papaya salad! Both were very good and yummy! :)) Maybe we should have had the Papaya salad more spicy but I told hubby no on the spicy! My bad! :(( Then my Jasmin rice came and my hubby's brown rice came along with our main course meals!! I really appreciated the heart shaped rice they gave us! :)) Hmmm..upon looking @ the dishes.. It was kind of small?!? I mean..the serving was odd in my opinion! I see small servings of the Woonsen noodles and I merely saw more veggies with 6-7 small strips of white chicken a lot of mushrooms and carrots but hardly any noodles?!?! I think the noodles were just prepared for one person?!? I'd thought from previous other Thai restaurants I've been to..More Noodles given are the focal point of why it's called on the menu as a description of Woonsen Noodles should overpower the veggies!?! See the receipt...I'm a bit confused! Then we got another dish called Tofu Pad Ma Kuer which is basically tofu..eggplant with veggies! I love eggplant but I needed more of it!! Okie..this one was good but not great enough to say I'd order it again It lacked flavor and so did the other dish with hardly any noodles lacked flavor?!! I'm sorry..I really needed my packets of soy sauce which I had in my glove compartment! It would be embarrassing for me to go get that so I just ate the food coz I was really hungry! Which by the way..I was still hungry after our meal!! :-0 Overall..it was a very nice little corner restaurant with pretty decors on the walls and the smiley girl was very nice to always fill our waters when it became empty! The service was just okay..the food was just okay! I'd probably come back just coz my hubby enjoyed his food and maybe we could try other things in the menu! It seemed that it was busy all around today probably with the support of nearby neighbors coming to this restaurant! Thank you Regent Thai for a lovely dinner! We hope next time I'd like to give you a higher score! :)) read more

Today was my first time trying this Thai spot! Its such a cute little spot. Right on the corner with lots of windows for lots of natural light. The menu has so many options to choose from. I ordered the shrimp fried rice, the fried veggie spring rolls and the Thai tea! All of it was exceptionally good! I have no complaints. They seemed to have a small staff but she was great! She checked in on us frequently and kept our waters filled and napkins on the table. She was really sweet and paid attention to detail which is always a bonus when your a server. Its the small things that makes an experience great! Overall I recommend this place if your in the city looking for Thai food! read more

I don't recommend anybody go try this place. First of all, the prices are HIGH and the portion of the food are very little. Not only that,the worse thing was I already tips them 18% and they charged my VISA 25%. I checked my receipt showed they charged me 7% more, I talked to my bank and they wanted me to dispute the charge and fill out so many forms. I don't want to waste my time for that. Please,don't make the same mistake like I did. There are so many much better restaurants out there waiting for you. DO NOT COME HERE. read more

We love Regent Thai. I have been coming here for as long as I can remember. The food is always delicious and the service is quick. Whether you dine in or pick up.

I've been going here for many many years and it's still my go to place for Thai in the city! We ordered the Pad Thai with Beef, Pad Sew You with Duck, Yellow Curry with Chicken and the Eggplant with Pork. These are usually our go to options for lunch and all are super good. The portions aren't the biggest but for the price of it, it is reasonable. The place is huge with cute plates. But the service was a bit slow, only because there was only 1 waitress doing everything. They used to have all these items in the lunch menu, however they have changed it and now the only thing on the lunch menu is the yellow curry. This meant that the eggplant didn't come with rice so we had to order a side of it. Overall I think this place is a good place for lunch! Would recommend it if you're around the area. read more

Regent Thai Restaurant - a man eating a meal - Thai Near Me - San Francisco, California

Regent Thai continues to impress after so many years! We placed a large order for a dinner event serving 50 people, and everything was exceptional -- flavorful, generous, and beautifully prepared. Our guests raved about the delicious curries (yellow, green, and Panang), the beautifully scored vegetables, and the tender chicken and beef. The pad see ew was a crowd favorite, and the chef's specials -- yellow prawns and golden salmon -- were truly outstanding. The staff made the experience even better. Preeya was incredibly helpful during the initial order, Kay ensured a smooth pickup, and Chef Busara's warmth and joy shine through in every dish. Thank you all -- we'll definitely be back! read more

My daughter and I regularly go to Regent Thai and love it. The service is great and the food is very flavorful.

I have been going here for over 20 years and they have changed hands a few years back but the food has always been very good and good prices but the waiter that served us today Aug 2 nd was extremely rude and his attire looked like he just got out of bed and he wanted us to pack up our own food and hurry up and leave . I asked was he the owner and he said it was his brother . and all our food was cold except the soup..Service has really gone down they use to have very nice people serving in Thai dress and were always so accomodating. read more

Very delicious place! The service is good, I love that the waiters wear traditional Thai clothing. The food is served on beautiful blue and white dishes. There is also gorgeous wall art. Now for the food: They start you off with complimentary shrimp chips with sauce. We have tried some appetizers they were not bad, we will keep trying for our favorites. The best dish hands down is the shrimp curry, ( I forget the name in Thai) it is DELECTABLE! The rice is comes in a heart shape The pad Thai is also good We will be back for more! read more

Have been a customer of this restaurant for as long as it's been in my neighborhood, Noe Valley. Have always enjoyed the food, service, customer service, & ambiance. Due to rainy day, decided to get takeout. Ordered beef with broccoli, chicken in peanut sauce and one other dish. To my dismay, I basically paid $45.00 for brown rice and broccoli. One would have to search for signs of beef or chicken. Very disappointed. Understand the cost of running a restaurant and paying for food is costly but this is truly unacceptable. read more
