"The following review reflects my takeout experience DURING the COVID 19 pandemic. Oh, I've passed by this corner spot many times but never ventured in before COVID 19. Funny how the pandemic has completely altered my takeout choices within a certain perimeter of my home based on how many FitBit steps I need on a particular day. If I'm behind in the late afternoon, I usually get more ambitious with my circular walking routes, and if I'm traversing Nob Hill, I must be making up for lost steps. That's my only explanation for making an order at Thai Thai when there are a multitude of Thai and other Southeast Asian spots closer to me. I ordered two items here. First up were the $10 Fresh Spring Rolls which looked handmade with plenty of tofu, cucumber, carrot, and bean sprouts stuffed into the rice wrapper and more than enough peanut sauce (photo: [hidden link] . The fresh crunch was what I needed when I got home. The $14 Healthy Clay Pot Dinner Special was definitely tasty though how healthy it was could be a point of contention. I wished they offered a no rice option but I decided to indulge myself with the brown rice. Mixed with it were fried tofu, cashew nuts, sweet corn, snow peas, bits of carrot, taro strips, red beans, spinach, and raisins all cooked in sesame oil (photo: [hidden link] . Probably more calories than I bargained for, but I deserve some reward for wearing a face mask all day, right? FOOD 4 stars...good traditional Thai food that satisfies AMBIANCE n/a...looked nice enough but I was in and out pretty quick SERVICE 4 stars...it was all ready and nicely packed for my long walk home TOTAL 4 stars...Thai Thai is good good RELATED Lost on Nob Hill? Here's a collection of places I've visited and reviewed: [hidden link]"

"It is hard to find authentic and affordable Thai food in Manhattan, let alone UES. However, this place really serves some of the most tasteful Thai dishes I had in the city. It does not compare authentic Thai cuisine, but it comes quite close. We started with roasted Calamari as an appetizer. It was definitely very good, but I felt it could have used more spices and spices to bring out the Calamari flavor. Some Tamarind or Cayenne pepper would have really brought more dimension to the dish, but overall I had no other complaints. The cook was right. I recovered from tense vocal cords and coveted soup. The ground pork Tom yum soup was the medicine I needed to heal my throat. It was bright, savory and had the correct amount of acid and spices. The crispy Winton chips added a depth of taste and texture to the plate, a detail I really appreciated. I also tried my friend roasted chicken dish and it was edible. The chicken looked a little undercooked, and it was rather a dimension. The sauce was definitely there to add a kick, but it could have been spicier. I lacked a lot of taste profiles that are traditionally Thai cuisine, so it would have been great to see it in this dish too. Overall, I had a great culinary experience. My throat was not too good, and the servers gave me graciously hot water and lemon to drink instead of cold water. The aesthetics of the restaurant was also beautiful, and I really appreciate it wasn't hot in the restaurant. I would definitely come back here to try more from their dishes. I would be even more important for her wonderful hospitality."
