Visited recently after 4:30 pm and again at lunch (before 2:30 pm). They have a lunch special for $20 where you can pick an appetizer, entree, and beverage. Unfortunately, I noticed that they use FROZEN spring rolls for lunch instead of the spring rolls that they serve after 4:30 pm. This is very disappointing and misleading! Plus, their prices are too high for their food to just be okay. Do better, Sistory! read more

This place is amazing!! The food is super flavorful, beautifully plated, and they don't skimp on the spices. We really liked the tom yum fried rice and the pad ped moo krob. It's pretty small inside so I'd recommend making a reservation and the interior is more on the casual side read more

10/13/24 Yeah honestly I can't remember much, which normally is a bad sign. Well, not bad bad, but just that the food wasn't memorable. The restaurant itself is very clean, bright, and feels quite modern in a good way. Friendly and inviting. But the food also had the same vibe--clean, vibrant, but....... in a bad way, lacking soul. Sorry can't remember more than that, but I think I'd skip this one. 3/5 #thaifood #thaicuisine read more

Sistory Thai is such a cute and delicious spot for brunch! This is my second time here and I loved the Kanoom Jean Nam Ngew as usual. My friends ordered the Pad See Ew, Pad Thai, and Pineapple Fried Rice! Everyone enjoyed the gorgeous ambiance and the beautiful and refreshing drinks. I've tried the lemonades, the Thai Iced Tea, and the spritzer, and have to say the spritzer is definitely the best! It's my favorite - subtly sweet and very bubbly with carbonated soda water! As pretty as a cocktail using the butterfly pea flower violet color, without any of the alcohol. I'd highly recommend to anyone visiting the Berkeley area if you have something to do and want to get a good meal around there too! read more

I can't believe I haven't thai-ed this sooner! You gotta curry on up & check them out! There was nothing I disliked about this place! Amazing service and staff, aesthetically pleasing food & drinks, super flavorful dishes, and affordable! I'm still dreaming about their roti curry & crispy pork belly. I definitely recommend this place. What I tried: -- february15 set {spring roll, roti dip, wings, fish cake, fried tofu, pad thai} presentation was amazing!! -- lunch combo set {choose from a selection of starters, entrees, and drink for $19.99} -- lobster tom kha ravioli (super unique and quite good!) -- duck noodle soup (wow yum) -- pad ped moo krob (pork belly) fatty yet meaty deliciousness -- oh! beef curry -- crab fried rice (such a classic) -- sistory & cold -- thai tea tini -- strawberry margarita -- magenta bliss with sparkling wine -- soju drink read more

Order a papaya salad and it's not to up to mark... ...they can do way much better of slicing the things ...papaya are cut in very thick and big ... also papaya are not fresh ..they are old . read more

Things I liked: Yellow curry. Though it sure didn't have much meat, you can maximize by having rice with all that flavorful gravy. Pad se ew is gooood! Soft yum noodles and not overly sweet. Tom yum fried rice. Comes with a chunk o fish on top and you mix it in. Nice flavor and a little spiciness. Things i want high on: Chicken satay just didn't have that much taste and was dry. Mix veggies... eh. There was a bunch left over. Mixed feelings: Deep fried Branzino. I like Branzino but it really didn't have much flavor pop considering it was fried. read more

We went there on Sunday for brunch but changed our mind since we got there closer to lunch time and their lunch menu looks really good. There're both indoor and outdoor seatings, parking is a hit or miss around the area so being early is the key. Got seated right away and just right before it started peaking up. Here's what we ordered: - Pad Ped Moo Krob (crispy pork belly) - Paradise Pla Krob (deep fried fish) Food was good but I was a bit disappointed since I didn't see some items from their Instagram page on the menu. Planned to order some dessert but we were already stuffed. Will update the review when we revisit them next time. read more

Was looking for lunch and stumbled upon this place. They offer lunch specials, a great deal that includes an appetizer, entree, and a drink. Ordered the fried tofu, spicy basil, and Thai iced tea. The spicy basil was very flavorful and slightly on the sweeter end for me, not too spicy. The crispy tofu was hitting the spot with how crispy it was and the Thai iced tea was a great chaser. The Thai iced coffee could go for more coffee taste. It was mild tasting.The pad kee mao was spicy and the crispy shrimp rolls are great when it's crunchy and burns your tongue. Definitely worth visiting for the lunch special. read more

Came in with my 3 brothers and assorted partners for a Sunday brunch of 7. At 11 am there was space for walking even with our giant group. Our party hadn't seen each other in a while so it was lovely that we weren't rushed out even after the check dropped and we paid. The brunch menu has breakfast classics and Thai brunch twists. I ordered the Sister Benedict which had a fried chicken thigh and yellow curry hollandaise. The flavors were really great but I was a little off put by the fact the egg was cold. I also had the lemongrass lemonade which was very refreshing. The bf had the tofu Pad Thai which was pretty good - I could have used some more spice and the sangria which he enjoyed. The Thai tea pancakes were also lovely and fluffy. The food came out promptly and we only had to wait a little while for my one person's salmon to make it to the table. They struggled a little bit with the special instructions of some of our crew, but generally everyone elect satisfied. Happy to check out a new place and have a good experience. read more

Finally got to come here for brunch with a friend! We opted for more Thai focused dishes, rather than the brunch food. I was able to park right out front, so that was very nice :) And started with a Vietnamese iced coffee, which was great! We ordered: *Kao Mok Kai - the chicken was perfectly cooked (crispy but also pretty tender!), and I loved the yellow curry and roti that came with it! *Kanoom Jeen Nam Ngew - it was a chilly day, so we decided to try the stew/soup, and it was so flavorful and delicious! Loved the crunch from the chicharron (and how they softened with the soup). The Kao Mok Kai was recommended by the server, and he wasn't wrong! Can't wait to come back and try more! read more

Made my reservation on Yelp appropriately. Located in Albany next to Gilman . You should be able to park on the street or alternatively next to the dollar tree If you absolutely can't find anything. The service was very prompt, super quick. We got a roti dip with this incredible curry broth that was just absolutely flavorful. It was so good . Chicken satay was juicy and grilled on a stick it was super good . The peanut sauce tasted like a more watery skippys peanut butter lol. But ended up using the roti sauce to dip the chicken in to . Got chicken yellow curry , that one was next level solid . It's not spicy for all you none spicy loving people (I love spicy but I know some of y'all are sensitive and need something like this ) Would I go again ?: fuck yeah I would come eat here all the time read more

Summary: Thai brunch that falls short of its SF brethren Details: * Sistory is probably fine for the area, but doesn't hold up well against the multitude of Thai brunch spots in SF proper * We might have had better luck sticking to the more Western brunch items, or the more traditional Thai entrees, but their fusion items were pretty lackluster * Thai-style chicken wings were too salty * Roti roti fish was fairly dry and pretty bland * Lobster ravioli tom kha was the best of the lot, but still only decent * Thai iced coffee and thai ice tea were both horrendously sweet (should have suspected as much when they told us the iced coffee and tea were the same levels of sweetness) * Amazing service though, and entertained my friend's request for a side of grilled pineapples Accessibility: Both indoor and outdoor dining are pretty accessible, but be warned that the area can get quite windy! read more

Flavorful food, cozy ambiance, and welcoming staff made Sistory a great place for dinner. All of our dishes were delicious, and the soups had a surprising amount of things in them. The garlic noodles were the star of the show though - the pork belly was indeed very crispy. Our 3 dishes were about $60 before tip/tax which is super reasonable for the Bay Area. Would recommend for a nice casual night out! read more

You know those dishes where you take a first bite and all you can do to describe its deliciousness is to make a lot of noises of happiness? That's what happened after I tried the Lobster Ravioli Tom Kha soup from Sistory Thai Kitchen. Decadent, rich ... a perfect complement of flavors. You'll just have to try it because words don't do it justice. If you're still hung up on the concept of lobster ravioli floating around in Tom Kha, I don't blame you -- it was new to me, too. But Sistory Thai Kitchen bills itself as "Contemporary and Authentic," and it lived up to both with the dishes I ordered via UberEats: the Lobster Ravioli Tom Kha and the Crab Fried Rice. The Lobster Ravioli Tom Kha had that familiar creamy, slightly spicy, rich coconut milk broth of Tom Kha, but with the added bonus of delightful pouches of lobster-stuffed ravioli, as well as onions, mushrooms, tomato, and baby corn. The broth served as both a soup and a light sauce for the enormous ravioli (the portion was pretty generous, with about 5-6 large raviolis). Because the lobster was enclosed in the pasta, it allowed the Tom Kha broth to shine on its own, and each component retained its distinct flavor. I ordered the Crab Fried Rice based on the rave reviews on Yelp, and it was probably one of the best crab fried rice dishes I've ever had, with big lumps of crab and nicely seasoned rice. But I'd still say the soup was the standout. At $19 for the Lobster Ravioli Tom Kha and $24 for the Crab Fried Rice, the prices might seem a little higher than average, but you're definitely paying for above-average quality food, and shellfish is normally expensive as it is. So maybe save this spot for a special occasion or a group outing. Based on the dishes I tried, I can't wait to explore more of Sistory's authentic creativity ... and eat more of that Lobster Ravioli Tom Kha, of course. read more

What a save for Easter brunch/lunch! So happy that I stumbled across this new Thai spot when I was avidly looking for a table for 6. Sistory lay roots in the previous Sabuy Sabuy 2 location on San Pablo. Looks like it has received a very warm welcome so far based on the reviews and the amount of people inside and lining up outside. Reservations are recommended if you plan to dine in, especially on the weekends as there is limited seating. They recently added brunch to the menu so we got a variety of items. Menu has a flair of fusion with a creative assortment of scramble/Benedicts, Thai tea pancakes, spiced maple chicken and waffle, Roli Roti, which is a fried fish wrapped in Roti. There was even a Thai lobster ravioli on the lunch menu! Although I'm a little wary of some fusion types, I'm tempted to try this. The lunch Thai dishes were excellent - we ordered pad Thai with prawns (they don't skimp on the prawns!), crab fried rice, yellow curry, pad cashew with tofu, and fried calamari. They can even accommodate for dietary needs- they made my partner's dishes vegan and subbed for brown rice. The breakfast items we ordered were good and very IG-worthy but I think I may stick to the authentic Thai dishes, which were so delicious- my mom couldn't stop complimenting the food, especially the crab fried rice! We had some Thai iced tea and coffees and they were good but SO sweet. Tip for the team to please reduce the sugar content in the beverages. The service and staff were truly lovely- friendly, attentive and prompt. I would definitely come back. Please support this new women-owned business! Let's make "Sistory!" :) read more

San Pablo was way overdue for a cute new restaurant! Sistory hits allll the marks. Cute cafe, bomb food, lovely staff-- sign me up pls!! My bf and I have been itching to come back ever since we had lunch here (just need to wake up early enough for their brunch menu... Zzzzz) (as of March 2022) For COVID safety purposes, masks are required, seating is spaced out, and tables are sanitized thoroughly. Parking avail along the street. Service is fast and super friendly!! We went a little overboard seeing all the yummy menu items........ Some favorites were: - PINK LADY (the tastiest milk-based Thai drink!) - PAD PED MOO KROB (juicy af slices of pork with delectably stir-fried veg) - TOM YUM FRIED RICE (sour and savory heaven) - ROTI CHA THAI (sweet crepe-pancake-thing with cereal, condensed milk, and ice cream) - MANGO MOUSSE CAKE (ok, how do they do dessert so well?????) In my eyes, Sistory can do no wrong. They have vegan and veg options too :-) read more

Sistory is an adorable brunch spot that perfectly gives Thai Cuisine a Hawaiian touch. My friends and I came here on a Sunday morning, around 10:30 am. They offered us a seat at the side before promptly providing us water. We took a look through the menu and found plenty of breakfast and brunch options. I ended up ordering their signature Sister Benedict, which had a generous portion of fried chicken on the side. The plate was perfectly balanced between the egg benedict, fried chicken, small portion of salad, and potatoes. It was quite filling but not enough to pull you down. The curry hollandaise sauce was light enough to not overpower the biscuit. I do, however; wish that the biscuit was toasted to add a little more texture. They also have a large selection of beverages to compliment your meal and snack bite tapas to share. I enjoyed the wonderful service, fantastic time with friends, and the mom and pop delicate touch. Fun fact, this restaurant is also women owned. read more

Wow. We came on a Sunday so we were able to find street parking for free. This restaurant is new and only recently started serving breakfast/brunch. We ordered the morning set $19 and Popeyes set $25. The morning set, what blew my mind was the roti/yellow curry that was with the potato wedges. That was hella bomb. The Popeyes set, the salmon was cooked perfect, amazing sauce on top and for some reason, the country style potato was hella good too. Really glad restaurant week is here so I can try a lot of the menu for a reasonable price. The drinks, thai ice tea, strawberry lemonade, and melon spritzer. Bae loved the Thai ice tea and I loved the melon spritzer, I love sweet drinks, We sat outside because we had our poodle with us. The weather was nice so no complaints there. Lots of cars do go by so be mindful if you sit outside. Definitely swinging by again to check out their other items. read more

I actually found this place on TikTok! I was surprised it was in Berkeley and couldn't wait to go try. Most of these foodie-like restaurants are usually in SJ or LA. We came right when it opened, around 8:30am, so we were the only ones there at the time. We were greeted and seated right away. Everything looked so good, so we decided to get a few dishes to share and eat off each other. We ordered: - Get Up N Fly, bacon on the side because my bf can't have pork - Thai tea pancakes - Sister Benedict The curry in the Get Up N Fly was so good! We enjoyed it a lot and kept trying to soak it all up with our fries lol. The thai tea pancakes were not too sweet and I just love the whole concept of pancakes covered in Thai tea syrup! The man saw me trying to soak up the syrup and asked if I'd like more lol. The sister benedict is one of their specials and came with a fried and crispy chicken thigh! It was very filling and absolutely delicious! The overall presentation of the food is very aesthetically pleasing and the customer service was just wonderful. We would like to come back and try their other menu items. They also have specials posted on their Instagram page for holidays such as Mother's Day, so check it out! read more

Food: Amazing food but I think a little on the pricier side? I didn't really like the tom yum but everything else was good. We got crab fried rice and this salmon place but funnily enough the best thing was the potato wedges, and I normally don't even like fries. Something about them is just so good, so perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and flavorful. Unfortunately they only offer the wedges for brunch and ONLY on the weekends. doesn't make sense to me and it's unfortunate but oh well. Service: Service is good, no complaints Ambiance: It's fairly small inside but super cute and aesthetic. Overall would def come back but mostly for the fries haha read more

Sistory - Crab Fried Rice - Thai Near Me - Albany, California

This place is great!!! Its a cute restaurant with a cozy, hip vibe. Staff is friendly and the food is absolutely worth trying. We got the Kao Soi which hit the spot. Its a perfectly seasoned curry, with noodles and beef or chicken (but we chose the beef). The beef was soft and chewy and basically melted in my mouth. Definitely one of my favorite thai dishes to date. We devoured it so fast and i was quite sad when it was gone. The portion size was a good amount but definitely on the smaller side for the price which was $22. We also got the Pad Ped Moo Krob. The pork is thick yet has an amazing crunch. With the rice and bell peppers, it was definitely filling and flavors melded well together! I personally enjoyed the Kao Soi more because the curry was just so rich and scrumptious. My boyfriend liked the Pad Ped Moo Krob more though so I guess it really is just personal preference! Both were great. We finished it off with the Roti Cha ice cream which was good as well. The thai ice cream went well with the roti. Wish the roti was slightly crispier and flakier but overall was glad to end the meal with it! read more

Came here for Mother's Day. The restaurant is quite small. There is seating and tables on both sides of the restaurant. There is no way there can be social distancing of customers so beware. There was a small table outside with a few chairs. It was cold and windy that day so we didn't ask for the outside seating. We were promptly greeted and seated. Calamari, papaya salad, pad see ew, roti tasted fine. Nothing special. Also, you can see of the photos I took, their portions of small for how much they charge. Lobster ravioli tom ka was delicious! This is why I am giving 3 stars. The thai ice tea was a little too sweet for my liking (and I love sweets). Only street parking available. It is a small location so you have to make sure to pay attention to their restaurant sign. read more

We decided to try this place out for lunch since we were craving Thai food. We ordered delivery through Uber Eats. I'll start with the bad... the packaging was not great. We ordered the Kanoom Jeen Nam Ngew and it looked like it was packaged while it was way too hot to the point that the soup container top was deformed (picture below). It also spilled in the bag. The vermicelli came in foil and when I unwrapped it from the foil, it was in a plastic sandwich bag that was also extremely hot. The Paradise Pla Krob spilled a bit too. For the food itself, the dishes were okay. Their special Kanoom Jeen Nam Ngew was tasty but the vermicelli doesn't absorb much flavor. The pork ribs were good in it though. Also, the dish is pretty spicy, so I'd recommend adding that to the description in Uber Eats because it doesn't mention it being spicy at all. My boyfriend had the Paradise Pla Krob and he said the fish was good, but the broth was just okay. Personally I thought the fish in his dish was a bit sweet, so if you're not a fan of sweet and savory, I'd try another dish. Given the prices of these dishes at $22-$23, the portions were smaller than other Thai places we've ordered from and we weren't blown away by the taste. All in all, the experience was average, but maybe this place is more a dine-in style restaurant. read more

A wonderful experience dining in this small Berkeley restaurant. It was really nice to support a restaurant that has an all-woman front of house staff. The vibe of this small restaurant was very cozy and almost boutique like, which I really enjoyed because it gave me a home feel. To the food: Per usual, my friends and I (4 of us total) got quite a few dishes just to try a bit of everything. We started with the curry puffs and crispy roti. I personally preferred the curry puffs because the thickness of the filling paired well with the liquidity of the sauce. The crispy roti was also good but wasn't as special in my opinion. We got 4 entrees: Kao Soi, Pad Pak, Pad Kee Mao, and Tom Yum, listed in order of personal preference. I will admit I'm definitely biased because I had a great experience with Kao Soi in the past and now love it no matter where I go. That being said, it was delicious and the meat on the bone was so tender. I would say the rest of the dishes were exactly what you would expect. We tried different proteins and different vegetables with noodles and rice and they were all delicious, but not particularly special. The Tom Yum soup was good but pretty standard for what I've tasted. Definitely recommend this place for a cute date spot or a small get together with friends. If you have a big party, I would definitely recommend getting a reservation. I also heard they have a really good brunch but haven't tried it yet! read more

I visited Sistory Thai yesterday and had a mixed experience. for some reason, the waiter wasn't in a good mood, I guess , and his service started off mediocre and then got worse. we actually had to plead to get the rice we ordered! And as the restaurant filled up, it got noisier and noisier, and ended up quite loud. The other low point was Pra Ram, which had almost no peanut sauce at all. but I am still giving the place four stars because the potato puffs with yellow curry sauce were delicious, the tom kha soup was incredible, and the pad see ou was really tasty. I don't know if I'll go back to the restaurant, but the food redeemed the noise and the service. read more

Sistory Thai Kitchen is a solid 5/5 brunch place. I came here at 12pm on a Saturday as a party of two and the wait was only 15-20 minutes long. The interior decor was extremely cute, and the food was delicious also! - Curry Puff: 10/10, so crispy on the outside. Additionally the potato filling already inside was so flavorful. To top it off the puffs come with a side of curry to dip/ drizzle onto the pastries which transforms the flavor of the pastries making them even more delicious than they already were. Highly recommend. - Thai Iced Coffee: the coffee was delicious but it was a little too sweet for my liking. For those who usually don't add sugar to their coffee I suggest requesting them to lower the sugar content or skip the drink overall. - Sister Benedict: Came on a huge plate with lots of food, the Benedicts were good, pretty typical, but the chicken was crispy and moist. Came with a side of potatoes and salads. While for the most part the dish was just your regular Benedict's they were well done and nicely plated. - Grilled Salmon Popeye: grilled salmon with a side of scrambled eggs, salad, potatoes, and toast. I don't have much else to say as the dish tastes exactly what you'd expect from the description, but it was well done. Great food overall, nice staff, and cute interior. This is a cute brunch place and I'd definitely come again. read more

A cute little Thai and Thai fusion restaurant across the street from Tokyo Fish Market. There's only metered street parking, no private lot. I came on July 4th, a Tuesday around 11:30AM and it wasn't busy so was seated right away. There was a double sided menu, one side was for brunch (Thai fusion style brunch) and the other side was more traditional Thai lunch options. There's an alcoholic drink menu with some fun cocktails and they were advertising bottomless mimosas on the weekends for only $22 per person. The Thai tea coffee and the Thai tea lemonade were delicious. Got the curry puffs appetizer and it was super fluffy and soft and I liked that the curry sauce was on the side so you can customize how much curry flavor you want. There was also a nice fresh pickled cucumber and onion salad on the side which was good too. The beef Benedict was good. The most amazing part is their beef in the beef Benedict was just like simmered beef in pho! So flavorful and deep. The potatoes were nice and crispy. The best one was the Tom yum fried rice! It was soooooooo flavorful. Now it was too spicy for me but I also can't even eat white pepper, so no surprise here. Even though it was spicy and I was dying, I kept eating it because it was so good. I reached a point where I even got a glass of milk just so I could keep eating it without dying lol. So if you can handle spicy food, I recommend the Tom yum fried rice. The salmon it comes with isn't really seasoned because you need to dip it in the sauce! The sauce is also spicy fyi. The soup it comes with is pretty interesting. At first the soup seems bland but then you're hit with flavor once that first thought passes. I've never had a clear soup like that before. The service was great, helpful and fast. I would definitely come back here to try more dishes! read more

Pros: This restaurant is highly praised as a "hidden gem" with "super flavorful" food. We particularly enjoyed the crispy and thoroughly cooked chicken wings, perfectly sautéed mixed vegetables, tender Massaman Neur Toon beef stew, hot and buttery roti, and delicious Thai fried rice with crispy pork belly. The ambiance was great because it felt like date night with the low lit area. Con's: Despite the positive food experience, I wanted to note a less-than-ideal start to this visit. Arriving at 8:20PM with a 9 PM closing time created a rushed and awkward feeling. This was exacerbated by a pushy waiter, especially since I needed extra time to carefully read the menu due to a severe shellfish allergy. Fortunately, my husband ensured me that we had enough time to safely choose our meal. As local Bay Area foodies, every guest should receive a large water craft when eating at a restaurant that has spicy food, even when they don't ask for it, it's common courtesy. Especially when you see one on all the other tables but yours. We will be back, we luv Thai food! Hope this message helps! read more

Sistory - Crispy fried chicken, mixed vegetables, THAI fried rice with pork belly, roti - Thai Near Me - Albany, California

Nice Thai restaurant in the Albany and Berkeley border. Went here on a Monday evening. We started off our dinner with the spring rolls. They were piping hot and served in a frying basket on top of a tray. I loved the presentation of it with a banana leaf and parsley. The spring rolls were very crunchy and filled with vegetables and noodles. The taste was pretty good and not too salty. The dipping sauce was a sweet and sour chili sauce. It paired well with the spring rolls. We got 4 rolls. The pad Thai was very delicious. I loved its presentation with the garnish of spring onions and bean sprouts. Along with the wedge of lime, the vibrant colors just popped out to us. Loved the overall flavor of the dish. The pad Thai wasn't too overwhelmingly sweet and the noodles were nice and chewy. We opted for the beef as our protein of choice. It was nice and tender and flavorful. I enjoyed the tofu and bits of egg in this dish. The addition of bean sprouts and spring onions gave the dish a wonderful crunch. The peanuts were a pleasant touch to the dish. Nice flavor and texture. The Kao Soi was an excellent curry noodle dish. I enjoyed the sweet and creamy coconut-based curry sauce. I can taste the ginger, garlic, and chilies in it. The spice level was not too bad. It was a bit overwhelming at first, but once I got a few more servings, I was able to tolerate the burn. I loved the presentation of this dish. It also came with fried noodles and two dried chilies. Loved the egg noodles with its texture and how it soaked up the curry. The dish also had a juicy chicken thigh. Excellent flavor and pairing. The pickled mustard green was good with its acidity. It gave the dish another wonderful flavor profile. Pretty enjoyable dish, especially if you like spicy food. I wasn't sure if this was a medium spice. We ended our dinner with a Thai iced tea. It was nice and refreshing. Served with ice inside a mason jar. The tea was good. Just sweet enough and very necessary to wash down all of our delicious food. Service was excellent. Our server was very courteous and efficient. She made sure our visit was a very pleasant one. It was comforting knowing that she filled up our waters every so often. Our dishes came at a very timely manner. The ambiance was nice. Pretty chill setting. Loved the decor inside the restaurant. Very clean and well maintained. The parking was not too bad. Just park by the side to a meter. Lucky for us, it was after 6 pm and parking was free. Overall, wonderful experience at Sistory Thai Kitchen. I enjoyed each dish we ate and thank the stupendous staff for their efforts. I would love to visit here again someday. It would be nice to try some of their other dishes. Thank you, Sistory Thai Kitchen! read more

This was a cute and fairly quiet brunch spot. I dined here solo and it was nice because it wasn't super crowded and the inside was so aesthetic! Unfortunately, the cons of dining solo are that I can't try as many dishes, so I settled on the Thai Tea Pancakes. These were very pretty and also unique, which is why I got them, but I regret not being able to try some of the savory dishes here. I liked the pancakes and found them to be super fluffy, but they were really sweet with the syrup and I also didn't find the syrup to be that similar to thai tea flavor. I think these would be good to share but it was too sweet to have by myself for breakfast. Still, the quality is clearly excellent here and the spot is so nice, I definitely want to come back and bring friends/family to try more :) read more
