Me and my bf went in there when they open at 11am there was two Chinese lady was waitress they take our order. Waited 35 minutes for food to come out especially when there were no customer in there. The food was ok read more

Not exactly great ambiance, very clean but pretty sterile, so I'd suggest takeout and the food is unbelievable! I spent six weeks in Thailand a few years back and have not found anything comparable to authentic Thai food until I tried SL kitchen. We've ordered from them several times and have never been disappointed. I'm an adventurous eater and would highly recommend trying things on their menu that challenge your palette! Regarding takeout, I wouldn't suggest ordering through a delivery service as the food looses a lot of its luster sitting in warm containers. I live less than a mile away and get there before my order is ready to ensure that it's hot and fresh when I put it on the table. Enjoy this amazing little gem! read more

Great service since the moment I walked in. Came here with a friend. He ordered pad Thai and said it was delicious. Most places use reconstituted dried rice noodles. Not here. I had the khaopaik sen or chicken noodle soup. They knocked it out of the park. Great service Great food plenty of parking. read more

Had the drunken noodles and you get to pick your choice of protein . We chose beef and also had a side of white rice . I shared this with one other person and it honestly was the perfect portion were you weren't left hungry nor to full it was just right. The noodles were so delicious and the basil in it really gave it a refreshing touch . Prices are so good to and the service was awesome they were very attentive but not overbearing . I would deff go back and try diff dishes . read more

I have been a few Thai restaurants in Bay Area, but this is the one that I would recommend for sure. Atmosphere, food, and services are excellent. Staffs are friendly and attentive. Prices are pretty reasonable. Will definitely come back again. read more

See all

Lucky to find a thai restaurant close to my house. I love Thai food and this place has some delicious plate on their menu. The food we ordered was great and we all were full. For sure coming back .. by the way great service ! read more

First time getting take out from SL Kitchen. We had Green Curry with beef, sweet rice, Pad see ew, Thai tea and Money Bags. We liked everything - ingredients were fresh and noodles were cooked just right. Out of everything, the Money Bags stood out! Haven't had these before anywhere and definitely a must-have appetizer. Will come back again! read more

My husband and I tried this place for the first time tonight and it was EXCELLENT. So happy to have it so close to our home. Every dish was superb, the staff were lovely, I highly recommend. I took seconds and ate too much but I didn't want the meal to be over. Can't remember the last time I felt that way. read more

Got Tofu Spring roll & Tofu Pad Thai. Nothing crazy to write, pretty decent food. Wouldn't mind going again if it is close by. Not gonna go out of my way though. read more

Delicious! We loved the naan with yellow curry dipping sauce and the green curry. Pro tip - save you and the restaurant money by calling in your order for pick up. read more

After a delicious meal and good service last evening I spent the remainder of the evening in the ER !!!!!! When my wife and I got home she had a headache and I had severe facial and bodily numbness, tingling , flushing,sweating. All consistent with MSG effects. I returned there today to inform the manager. He said he would talk to his cooks about the incident, that's all he said. No apology. We order Thai food once per week on average and I have never had a reaction. I thought I was having a stroke. read more

Everything was perfect, from the food to the customer service and the attention! The only thing that was annoying was the table that sat behind us, cursing and talking very loudly. Other than that will be coming again, the ambiance, cleanliness and attention to detail like the cucumber infused water was great, no complaints, haven't had such great service in quite some time. read more

I decided to give this new Thai spot in town a try. Let me just say it isn't on the same playing field as Thai staples like Champa and Chai Thai. It is also pretty pricy. I ordered the pad Thai and string bean beef. The flavors were pretty okay, but the execution of the dishes were disappointing. My noodles were falling apart and chopped up as if they were over beaten in the wok. My beef dish had very over cooked and withered vegetables. I do appreciate the generous portions they provide, which is one of the reasons I'll probably give this place another shot. read more

Battered fish, basil chicken wing and needle soups were all very good. Place is located a mile from my house. This will be our place to fill our Thai food cravings. read more

This restaurant is at the top of my food pyramid! I eat here once a week and it never disappoints. I'm a baby with spices and they are always super great and not making it too spicy for my dum dum pallet. I order take out and each order has been 100% correct. I love this place so much. read more

Can't follow simple spice level requests, even though their menu suggests asking for spice levels in dish. Pad Thai requested spicy was a sweet hot mess. Dish requested not spicy came out hot. Seafood is sub par quality frozen mix bag of same as would be found in discount aisle of a bargain store deep freeze. read more

Oh yum! I dropped by to get takeout during their soft open tonight. I got Kapoun Noodle Soup and some mango sticky rice. Both were excellent. Medium spicy was actually medium spicy, which was great. The soup was very flavorful and the mango sticky rice was big enough for two people to split. They had some delicious stuff on the menu that I'm looking forward to trying at a later date. No outdoor seating, so not great for pandemic, but the takeout was easy and well-packaged. read more

The food tastes amazing here. I've been to Thai restaurants all around the bay- the flavors and quality don't compare. Staff is always welcoming, quick, respectful and accommodating. I usually get takeout but the dining room is beautiful and roomy. 10/10 would recommend read more

I thought this place was just ok.I had higher expectations. The Lao sausage tasted as if a packet seasoning was used. The fried fish with mango was way too too sweet for my liking. The beef satay was chewy. Most satays I've tried have been extremely disappointing. I need to stop ordering. . read more

I had the chance to try their food during their soft opening and I loved every bite of it! The food is great. The staff is awesome. The prices are decent. Will definitely be coming back for more when I'm in the area. read more

The food was great, but the dining-in experience was awful. No decor, nothing on the walls. The only music came from a distant, staticky radio that someone kept changing the channels on, without even letting a song finish. Also, there was a constant, horrible low humming motor sound that vibrated against our eardrums. The waitresses were very sloppily dressed. We will probably do take-out from this place in the future, but they need to make major changes to their dining rooms! read more

This place is the bomb! Food and service are excellent. The owner Steven always goes the extra mile, even when they are mad busy! Thank you Steven. I truly appreciate you. My family says you have the best Thai food in the Bay, bar none! read more

I use to stop by the Starbucks next door on the way home from work. I never noticed this place. So, we found it on Yelp and decided to check it out. My friend is vegan and they had several options. She order the fresh spring rolls (tofu) and the yellow curry (tofu) with rice. I ordered the Roti with curry sauce. She shares our appetizers and both were very tasty! I also order pan se ew with chicken. All the food was delish. We had more than we could eat so leftovers! we will definitely return to try more. read more

The wings for sure were not double fried and were not fully cooked in the center. Came in a soupy sugar sauce with barely any basil flavor. Roti was ok but way small amount of sauce.. read more

I had a really good experience dining at SL kitchen. The staff and owner were very nice and attentive. The food was good. It had just the right flavors! The money bags are delicious, though they are pretty fried! But it is a fried dish after all! I tried the pad ke mao. This is one of my favorite Thai dishes and SL kitchen has the best pad ke mao I've had thus far. It was not super greasy as I've had in the past and I asked for mild which they were able to do and still retain all the flavor. I recommend giving them a try if your in the mood for Thai. read more

Came in for an early lunch on a completely empty stomach. Left, felt immediately sick, spent the rest of the day vomiting and sick. Bad food, leftover ingredients pawned off on the first customer, or unclean food handling resulting in norovirus contamination. read more

Really good Thai food! So happy to find this place, good portions and a very friendly staff. We had pad Thai, pineapple fried rice and the roti with yellow curry followed by mango sticky rice for dessert. Didn't add take any photos as there are plenty of the items we ordered already posted. read more

Staff is super nice and food is delicious! We love coming here for family events! Papaya salad, chicken larb, and papaya salad is my top favorite read more

Local favorite! Friendly polite service and excellent food. I almost always get the money bags and Thai ice tea with family orders. Noodle and rice dishes are my favorite but the curries are pretty good too. read more

The food was good not great for the price. I received one small portion for $21.00 and had to pay an additional $2.00 for white rice when you think it should come with your meal. It came with No Utensils or No Straw for my $5.00 Drink and No Sauces of any kind. A little Soy sauce or Spice would of been nice and perhaps some napkins. I wouldn't usually care about this but I just moved here and I haven't unpacked my supplies so my bad I guess to assume these things would be part of the service I paid for. First and last time ordering from here to expensive it was a $40.00 meal after delivery, tip, and tax. Should of been $20.00 tops and that's been generous. read more

SL Kitchen - Thai Near Me - San Leandro, California

First time customer and pleasantly surprised with dine-in experience! The staff took our order in a timely manner and checked in conveniently once everything was served. All dishes tasted fresh with great portions (we took home leftovers). If you're in the area for Thai Laotian food, it's worth the visit. Just be mindful of parking meter times. read more

The food was good. The pad Thai with shrimp was tasty. We enjoyed the Money bags, unfortunately the fried rice was not up to expectations. The rice was dry and the chicken was very dry. We called in our order for pick up and the person answering the phone was too busy to answer questions. She almost hung up mid question, not a good look. We decided to try again in the future, but hoping for a better experience. read more

Had a nice lunch with my mom today at SL kitchen. The staff was super friendly and attentive. Excellent food! Our new spot for Thai food.

Delicious! One of the best Yellow Curries I have had. Very flavorful. Can't wait to try the other dishes...

We came here for dinner and had the money bags for an appetizer. They are delicious and really cute too. We also had the fried chicken with egg fried rice and the Pad Se Ew and they were both really good! Can't wait to come back and try different things next time. Also the prices are great. read more
