Thai Idea Vegetarian

I can’t believe I found a vegetarian Thai place that tastes as good as the real thing! I’m not a fan of fish sauce so I find the usual places a little too fishy. The pad see ew from this place tasted EXACTLY like a normal pad see ew without the overbearing fishiness. Loved it. Wish I lived in SF- I’d eat here all the time! (tho maybe it’s a good thing I don’t live close by lol)

Thai Idea Vegetarian is a gem for anyone who loves Thai food and wants to enjoy it in a vegetarian or vegan way. The restaurant is cozy and clean, with friendly and attentive staff. The menu is extensive and creative, offering a variety of dishes that are made with fresh and quality ingredients. The portions are generous and the prices are reasonable. Some of the dishes that I recommend are: V0. Pad Thai: This is a classic dish that is done very well here. The rice noodles are pan-fried with tofu, bean sprouts, chives, grounded peanuts, and egg. The sauce is tangy and sweet, and the dish is garnished with lime wedges. The dish is vegan and contains nuts. V. Green Curry: This is a spicy and aromatic dish that is served with bell pepper, bamboo shoot, eggplant, string bean, baby corn, and basil. The curry is creamy and rich, and the vegetables are tender and flavorful. The dish is vegan and vegetarian, and goes well with jasmine rice. V. Pumpkin Curry: This is a unique and delicious dish that is made with pumpkin, tofu, bell pepper, and basil in a red curry sauce. The pumpkin is soft and sweet, and the tofu is crispy and chewy. The sauce is creamy and spicy, and the dish is vegan and vegetarian. Thai Idea Vegetarian is a great place to satisfy your cravings for Thai food without compromising your dietary preferences. The restaurant is open from Monday to Friday, 11:00 am to 2:30 pm and 5:00 pm to 9:00 pm, and on Saturday and Sunday, 12:00 pm to 9:00 pm. The restaurant is located on 710 Polk St, San Francisco, CA 94109, near the Civic Center BART station. You can order online for pickup or delivery, or make a reservation for dine-in. Thai Idea Vegetarian is one of the best Thai restaurants in SF, and I highly recommend it!

The mango sticky rice and coconut ice cream is yum. Pad Thai is also delicious. Rice wrapped rolls with peanut sauce is yum. Ask for their amazing tamarind sauce on the side for your starters. Love the food here. The waiters are very efficient and quick here. They are very responsive to anything we ask for. Service is quick.

Amazing food, polite and friendly staff. The chef takes a lot of care in their taste and as well as the presentation. The food is a delight. It will be a treat for non-vegetarians as well and might actually convince people to move to plant based food. The Volcanic beef or any other item from the chef’s special section is a must try. As for people complaining about the area, yes it’s the tenderloin, which happens to be the place for best Thai and Vietnamese food in the entire city. I don’t see any sense for docking review stars for their location

Service, Cleanliness, and Food- all the things a great restaurant has, and Thai India has it all and more. Let me also just add that I ordered this food 3/5 days of my trip to SF… yes its that good! The service was amazing- staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. We could not believe how incredibly clean the tables and floors were. Super up-kept and you really dont find that everywhere. Now lets talk food.. We ordered the fresh young coconut oh my god it was incredibly fresh and afterwards I ate the inside malai (coconut meat) and it was so so good- ordered this everyday for three days.. Then we got the Tom Yum Soup- it was DELICIOUS. So hot and fresh and it honestly cured me of feeling sick- i felt so energized and fresh after eating this (it is spicy so beware). Next we got the pad thai, it was delicious again and all the perfect levels of sweet and savory. I also got the golden cauliflower which again was great! Cucumber salad also a great choice. Definitely returning here when i’m back in SF- love this place!

Best thai food I've ever had, vegan or not. Everything is fresh and the veggie "meats" are great. Slight preference for their veggie "beef". We visited the restaurant once and ordered takeout twice during our 3 days stay in San Francisco! It's just a bummer that the neighborhood isn't great at all. We travelled from Belgium and didn't know a lot about SF beforehand so the Tenderloin district was quite surprising to say the least. Still, the food is amazing and I would visit the restaurant again if I could.
