    Top Thai of the Bay Area. Get the Thai Samosa and the Dungeness Crab Ragoon for starters. Pumpkin Curry is great and finish a great meal with the Fried banana with the coconut ice cream!

    Prices were great and decor was cute. They were super fast with service and waiter was very nice. Ordered Pad See You while my friend had pad thai with pawns (no tofu). Great presentation and taste!

    Cumin Tofu is tasty and satisfying. Firecracker Shrimp has delicious kick. Any meat dish can be made with tofu instead. Tom Kha soup is delish, but don't eat the little bamboo pieces.

    A little pricey, but great food. $6 appetizers for happy hour and some fun desserts. Almost half the menu can be made vegetarian - I enjoyed it! Friendly for groups, but a little loud.

    I don't care what others say. The fresh spring rolls melted in my mouth and the flavors blended sweet & savory. The pork belly reminded me of lechón but dantier tastier, plus the sauce was spicy warm

    The tom yum doesn't taste the same as the authentic Thai cuisine, nevertheless still tasty!

    I love the cocktail menu. The Lychee Martini is delightfully light and flowery, with a wonderful kick. The Rama Breeze is fruity and accompanies seafood and lamb nicely.

    I think this is the best Thai restaurant in SF Downtown. Osha is kinda franchise Thai restaurant so you can see many of them in SF. But Osha on 2nd & Minna St has the best food than any other Oshas.

    "Pad Mee" Prawns noodle bowl is actually the best pad-thai-esque noodles I've had; it's not too saucey and has a generous serving size

    The Pad Thai with fried wontons is amazing. The wontons soaked in sauce will make you nothing but satisfied

    Roll in at 5pm on a weekday and listen to handbag house with the cute staff. On Mondays and Tuesdays it's so serenely empty you could bowl right down the middle of the dining room.

    Solid options include the chicken pad thai, beef pad see ew, and pineapple fried rice. Pair your choice with a lychee martini.

    Start with a Green Tea Mojito, then have the Pumpkin Curry with Coconut Rice, and conclude your meal with Coconut Sorbet.

    Some of the best Thai food the bay area has to offer. This location is a particularly nice location for girls night out or drinks and dinner with pals. Thai Samosas are incredible!

    Not your strip mall's Thai resto. Fantastic food. Steamed sea bass with lemongrass is crazy delicious.

    I love the spicy catfish, and miss it if I'm at an Osha location that doesn't have it.

    We have a vegetation at the table, I asked to have the chicken on the side for one dish and the waiter said no, we can't do that. #Fail.

    Food's not bad...I would definitely recommend the volcanic beef - tons of flavor. The music was hopping though and the mood and lightning's great here

    Average and slightly pricey Thai spot. Volcanic beef and Pad See You are the best dishes. Drinks are way too sugary.
