Suriya Thai Restaurant Review, San Francisco

Suriya Now Closed.

Suriya Thai Restaurant is located in the Mission district of San Francisco. A friend liked the food there and suggested we try it out.

Decor, Vibe – An old building that has been spiffed up with some nice artifacts. Mostly parties of 2 in their 30′s dining here. Lots of to go orders.

Thai Ice Tea

Picks:

Mieng Kum ($7.25) comes with small dishes of shrimp, shallot, ginger, peanuts, coconut, lime and mildly spicy sauce. You take a little of each and put them in a spinach leaf. A very fun and tasty dish. Each ingredient tasted very good and added to the uniqueness.

Waterfall Beef Salad ($8.95) with Grilled beef, shallot, onions, mint, ground roasted rice, chilies, lime juice and fresh vegetables was a pretty big dish. This dish had a fair amount of spiciness, so beware. It was also a little tart and zesty. Be sure to get some rice to help beat the heat.

Pumpkin Curry ($11.95) with shrimp was a red curry with coconut milk. Delicious curry that was a little sweet and pumpkin that tasted like sweet potatoes. A healthy does of shrimp too.

Coconut ice cream ($3) was from Mitchell’s and had 2 good sized scoops.

OK:

Pans:

Service was good, helping it was the fact that the restaurant was mostly empty. Cash only, $8 corkage, and $12 minimum per person. Very small wine list, glasses from $4.50. While price are not the lowest around, quality is decent, making this a safe bet for Thai food. They also have Thai Cooking classes.

$25 Dining Certificate for $5
