Kin Khao San Francisco Reviews
Called in the a.
m. today to try to move up a reservation 30 minutes. They didn't call me back until an hour before my reservation, had no idea why she was calling me or what my voicemail had said, and the girl was quite rude on the phone. Very frustrating.
Kin Khao absolutely lives up to the hype.
This isn't your typical neighborhood Thai spot, it's an elevated, modern take on Thai flavors that still feels comforting and true to its roots.

Came here for lunch today, and OH BOY OMG! Easily the best spot we've eaten at in a very long time. Deep flavors, not dumbed down in the least. Had some incredible appetizers and one main dish to share (see pictures). We absolutely had the bes

This 1 Michelin Star Restaurant is one of our all time favorites. Every time we eat here, we also order the mushroom hor mok, nam tok beans, and massaman nuea! This was our first time trying the pad kee mao and oh boy was it spicy. I was sweating eat

OMG. So delicious. This unassuming Thai eatery with a Michelin Star is located in the Hilton. The prix fixe menu ($75pp) is mouth-wateringly delicious with quite a bit of heat. Favorite: - Nam Tok beans - Massaman nuea (braised beef cheeks curry
Kin Khao is not your normal Thai restaurant.
It takes well known Thai dishes and recreates them with new textures, flavor profiles, and premium ingredients than you would normally see in a normal Thai restaurant. The staff were very pleasant and made it easy by texting you as soon as a table
Stopped in for lunch, had a great meal.
Friendly service, tasty food, quick and easy. Ordered the meatball wraps which were delicious, as well as the chicken sandwich which was great.

Kin Khao has been on my bucket list for so long, and it lived up to (exceeded, in fact) my expectations. I made a reservation for a weekday lunch one day in advance, and there appeared to be plenty of availability on Resy. The restaurant only had a f

Great, friendly service (they even gave a happy birthday card at the table ready to go when sat). we started off strong with the hot chicken wings, they were salty (fish sauce base was apparent) with hints of spice. very flavorful and crispy/crunchy

This is the place to go! A $95 dollar set menu for an amazing experience. We absolutely loved every single dish presented. My favorite was the soup for sure. The flavor is so rich and layered. The people here are nice, quick, and friendly. I would fe
As the first Michelin-starred Thai restaurant in the U.
S., Kin Khao continues to set the bar for what modern Thai food can be. Our recent lunch was a testament to Chef Pim's vision, where every single dish feels anchored in memory and intention, not just technique. It was a tight, flavorful, and mem

Ive read a lot of reviews about the service here and was scared but the service was actually really good. The server always came by and checked in on us. As for the food, it was a 7.5/10 for me. Actually maybe just a 7, or high 6 LOL. I've bee
Had a great experience at kin Khao.
This place is pretty busy but I went up and sat at the bar and was taken great care of. The food was incredible, I got pork belly with sticky rice and the squid. Did half portions for both and it was more than enough. The service was also incredible.
We had dinner at Kin Khao with a reservation for four.
The food itself was tasty. We liked the squid, the panang curry had a nice kick, and the cod curry dish, and pad thai were all solid. The shrimp appetizer was disappointing with only two shrimps for four people and the rest just crumbs. The service

Wonderful Bar, creative and original Drinks, unique Thai dishes, server inquired about food allergies ahead of ordering and pointed out the hot n spicy dishes so there would be no surprises. Nice touch. Loved the Bok Choy, pickled veggies and spicy b
Wonderful Thai flavors in a friendly setting
One of our favorite restaurants in SF. We never miss it when we come to the city. Friendly, attentive service, great cocktails, delicious food. Their Tom Yum cocktail is a must, wonderful Thai flavors. We loved the Spicy chicken wings, the eggplant d
Excellent
Located in the downtown area of San Francisco, Kin Khao is a lovely restaurant, serving excellent food. The service is prompt.
Way Overrated
Supposedly this place has a Michelin star. I didn't think much of this place and will never be back. The ambiance is not great. The service mediocre. And the food ranges from great to inedible. We ordered three dishes. The chicken wings were

Nice place with small flaws. Definitely not 1-star niveau.
At a lower price point and without the Michelin star, I would give this place 4 stars. But given price/star, we were disappointed. Some of the dishes were very interesting and flavory (if that's a word). Kudos for that! Other dishes, esp the po
Came in at around 12:45pm on Thursday.
Some tables were available but decided to sit at the bar top. The restaurant is located at the corner of Mason and Ellis, inside the Parc 55 hotel building. You have to go inside the building to get access to this restaurant. Greeted by the host who

Came here for a large work lunch and enjoyed our meals very much. We shared several apps including the wings and the Brussel sprouts. I didn't love my entree and I wouldn't say our Waitress was much help in offering suggestions. But it's a great plac
Extremely good Thai food.
Unique flavors paired with excellent service make for a fantastic dining experience. Spice levels on a few of the dishes were too high for a few members of my party so take their spice levels seriously. The interior is well decorated although the mus
I decided to give Kin Khao another try after 5 years.
We were seated right away with a lunchtime reservation and had prompt and quick service. We ordered the mushroom hor mok, five spice duck noodle soup, and I wanted to give the khao soi another chance. The mushroom hor mok was decent, but I wouldn't g

Was excited to try Kin Khao however I feel a bit let down by the food here. I thought that flavors were a bit too similar, and most dishes were slightly too sour. The only dish I liked was the appetizer that came with a crispy rice. For a one micheli
One of the best Thai restaurants I've been too! Black rice
One of the best Thai restaurants I've been too! Black rice pudding was delicious. Food was good and reasonably priced. Khao Kan Jin was flavorful!
The ambience of the restaurant was really nice.
The servers were very respectful to individuals in our party, in terms of their food allergies, and instrumental with their cooks, in instruction of not taking away from the food tasting experience, due to our family members' food allergies. The food

Appetizers were mind blowing Very good food and ambience.
Food was flavorful and mild
Great staff and service and food with unique Thai flavours
Stopped in for an early dinner without a reservation at 5:30PM, and secured a spot at the bar (perfect). Had a wonderful experience and great service from the two gents manning the bar, they really took care of me and made sure I had a lovely time.
Great food, ok service and good price
Food tastes great. I like crispy rice cake in hor mok and stir fried bok choy a lot. Service is just so so due to lack of staffing. Price is preety reasonable given location and Michelin star.
For SF 1 Star Michelin, this ain’t it
Strange location for a Michelin star restaurant (inside a whatever SF hotel, not some hot spot or fancy hotel). No bathroom except for hotel lobby where you have to be given a key by the restaurant. When you’re in SF where a lot of food is reall
NOT A MICHELIN STAR..........STOP THE LIE!
Sucha huge disappointment in both service and food quality. My dish and beer was served 15 minutes AFTER my wife's sandwich. Then the quality of the food was marginal at best. The service was abdominal as once the mistake of the incorrect dish was
Tum yum yum yum!
Good service and incredible food make this place a must. The massaman beef cheeks and the pork belly were a complete standout. Just do it.
Decent food but way overpriced
Went with friends and were drawn by the Michelin star. Service was friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. Wine list was decent. Cocktails o.k. The food is served family style. Food was not what I was used to in Thailand. More like a Thai inspired fus
Best Thai I have ever had
Best Thai I have ever had. The set menu is so good value for money. Enjoyed every single bite. Super spicy, but hey, it’s Thai, it should be.
Excellent Food in a very active restaurant with excellent service
We went there after seeing all the positive reviews. It is a very nice place with very attentative and active server that really put in a lot of effort so your stay is perfect. Food was excellent and they like to put every dish in the middle to share
What a delight!
A delight to the senses. Last minute reservation came in for the bar— and we took it. Brothers Brian and Garrett created a menu just for us. And it was perfect. OMG I’d go back for the mushroom hor mok. Then we had the Yum Polamai, pork belly,
Great flavors!
Delicious flavors. Unpretentious great food. Best to order several dishes to share. Only problem is they served too fast. Will return soon.

I recently visited Kin Khao in SF and had a great meal overall. We ordered the pretty hot wings, massaman curry, and octopus, all of which were tasty and well-prepared. The service was also friendly, and the wait time for a walk-in was only about 20
Okay boys and girls.
..Kim Khao is the real deal. Phenomenal meal and service here. We had high expectations coming here especially with one Michelin star to its name, but boy did it deliver. Our server guided us through the menu and we ended up getting the pork cracklin

Connect with users posting reservations for Kin Khao San Francisco
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Kin Khao San Francisco. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Kin Khao San Francisco at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Kin Khao San Francisco page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at Kin Khao San Francisco to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Kin Khao San Francisco!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
