The 16 Best Restaurants Near Union Square - San Francisco - The Infatuation
"“Have a pad thai awakening” is probably not on your Union Square bingo card. But you’ll get exactly that at The Thonglor, a tiny Thai spot just a block away from the tourists taking photos with the big heart statues. Their pad thai is saucy, chewy, and just the right amount of sweet. You’ll wake up thinking about it for months after. The same goes for everything else you’ll devour, from the velvety tom kha and richly spiced red curry to the sinus-clearing papaya salad, which leaves a burn on your lips that lingers. There are only eight tables inside this bustling, walk-in-only spot, but things move quickly—so, bingo card be damned, make any excuse to get here." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
