A Running List of San Francisco and Bay Area Restaurant Closings | Eater SF

"I learned that after sister spot Gecko Gecko closed in May, Giin Thai Canteen — the go-to for Thai hotpot and spring rolls — is now defunct; the restaurant taped a farewell message to its doors in early November promising to let fans know if it finds another home." - Paolo Bicchieri

This place was great! Fast service, very attentive staff and an stopped that's modern but classic. We had a great conversation about the picture of the elephant for a solid half hour. The food was also pretty good. Judging a places ratings for spicy is always hard. I love spicy food so I guess my tolerance was just up there. Or the Chili's in this batch just weren't super hot? Either way, delicious food!!!

Saturday afternoon spicy indulgence. The spice level for me was just right. No need to ask fir Chilli sauce. We had the Tom yum and pineapple curry with a mango sticky rice. The pineapple curry was in a league of its own. Succulent and spicy nuggets of pineapple with a dash of seasonal vegetables. The sauce is superbly spiced and flavorful. Satisfaction guaranteed.

Fantastic, friendly place with a great menu of tasty Thai dishes. Stoped in for a dessert take out of mango sticky rice and it was perfect!! Fresh mangos with warm sweet sticky rice. YUM. Right now they're only doing take out of course, but everything seemed clean & inviting.

Great self-serve/to-go Thai option in South Berkeley. Smaller menu than nearby Thai options in downtown Berkeley, but similar in quality and speed of service. Just opened new dining room Jan 2019. I recommend their Khal Soi (curry egg noodles pictured).

Food was delicious and piping hot. The curry noodles were a bit spicy. Although I prefer non-spicy food, I was able to tolerate the heat.

Great lil spot for quick fresh yummy thai food. They are prompt about getting food made, and have a lovely inviting dinning area with a nice fresh clean feel.

I Asked the girl at the register if there was any dairy or animal products in the yellow curry. She said no. So, I ordered yellow curry with veggies. While eating the curry I noticed there was a couple pieces of chicken in my curry. Not enough to where they messed up the order but enough to know that all the curry is cooked in the same pot and that if you order yellow curry they just sift out the chicken. I find this disappointing. Also was a bit annoyed that they have a $20.00 minimum for visa etc. If you don't meet the minimum you pay 50 cents. A bit strange for dining in or take out. Typically this is more common if you order delivery. The curry was ok.

Surprised at how low the rating is for this place! Great tasting Thai food! The BBQ Chicken over fried rice was particularly delicious. Update 11/1/22: so sad to see that Giin is temporarily closing :( hope it comes back nearby soon!
