Baan Yaai

The 16 Best Thai Restaurants In San Francisco - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"Marina-based Baan Yaai is a Thai street food oasis in a section of the city that’s seriously lacking in Thai restaurant operations. Just don’t be dissuaded by the Patagonia vest-wearing crowd who use this place as a reliable lunch or dinner standby. For once they know what they’re doing—this spot can run it with the other great Thai spots on this guide. So join the herd, and come here for chicken satay served with creamy peanut sauce, sour tom yum soup, perfectly cooked pad kee mao, and buttery, flaky roti that melts in your mouth after you dip it into the red curry." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
