Saap Thai Kitchen

I’ve been craving duck curry for awhile but it’s not something offered in many Thai restaurants lately. When offered in some places, duck doesn’t always taste fresh. I was ecstatic to find this place. Now, Saap doesn’t have the best duck curry I’ve had but it definitely hits the spot. The duck was fresh and plentiful. The broth could be creamier but the spiciness and flavor were there. I’d rate it 4.5 stars.

The Thai iced tea had the perfect level of sweetness. I should’ve ordered one more to go.

I was surprised they were offering mango sticky rice! Some restaurants only offer it when Manila mangoes are in season during the summer! For $8.95, the dessert was plentiful! It could’ve been an entire meal if I wasn’t so hungry! 😂

The best, however, is the staff. The manager/server who helped me was very nice and friendly. Although I came half hour before they closed for lunch, I wasn’t rushed at all. He answered my questions, and was very accommodating. The kitchen(?) staff that were leaving as I was finishing my food were also friendly. They all said “thank you” as they passed by to exit! Not a single employee was unhappy!

I highly recommend this restaurant!

Saap Thai is delicious! My partner and I stopped in for lunch while our running errands and were quite pleased with our choice. I got the cashew nut chicken lunch special, which comes in a great portion with a side salad, rice and fried egg. I also got a thai tea. Service was great, too! Our server was very kind and attentive. We would absolutely come back!

Delicious and deeply flavorful food. Staff is super kind. Vegetarian and vegan options available. Great price and value

This place is a gem hidden in South Sf. Newly opened recently so not many people know about it yet. It is def one of the better Thai restaurants that I've been. The pad Thai is saucy and has the wok hay taste. The noodles are springy, doesn't fall apart in the mouth and has a little bite to it. We also got the duck fried rice and that was also really good. Btw, you get a free Thai iced tea if you spend 25$ or more, which is so easy because you can get so many great dishes. Our second time coming here and we always enjoy the food. In a few months it'll be bustling. No doubt.

Decided to come here instead of the city for Thai, and I can't say I'm disappointed. This joint caters it's tastes more for the locals but they can also make it more authentic for those that want it. For that option we were recommended the papaya salad & soups.

Let me tell you they delivered on the Thai spicy request. It was alright to start out with and before I was halfway finished with the papaya salad, I was downing my 3rd cup of water. The pad Thai itself was also very good and it came in a deceptively massive portion (I recommend asking for fish sauce as well for this).

Thinking more about it, I do think overall the food would be a 4 star in my book. However, I thought the service we got was amazing and they were able to make the food more authentic upon our request (our group did have a Thai speaker) and I'd 100% recommend this place if you're local!

Side note: they are having a promo of Thai ice tea if you order over a certain amount 👌👌.
