Small local spot in the sunset serving flavorful Thai food that’s great for dining in or take out. Would recommend this place for a casual date night, lunch with friends, or a dinner in.
Loved: chicken satay (cucumber salad was a nice touch and so crunchy and delicious) and the fried rice with chicken and shrimp.
Sometimes Thai food at places can be heavy, greasy, or too sweet or saucy. Theirs was delicious, well balanced, flavorful, and on the lighter side sauce-wise, which I appreciate being someone who loves flavor but doesn’t want her food swimming in sauce.

I’ve lived in this neighborhood for two years and go to Thai Cottage at least once a week. I’m finally getting around to writing a review because this is, hands down, the most underrated restaurant I’ve ever been to. The food is consistently fantastic—I don’t have just one go-to dish because everything I try is a hit.
It’s a family-owned spot, and the owner, Sabrina, has become a friend over time. She cares so deeply about the food and the craft. Just last night she explained to me how they make their fish cakes, carefully pounding the fish by hand—there’s so much love and skill behind every dish.
Thai Cottage is cozy, understated, and truly a neighborhood gem, but the food is good enough that you’d be thrilled to find it at a high-end restaurant downtown (and pay double). Instead, we’re lucky to enjoy that same quality right here in the outer sunset, no reservations needed.

Great find! Green curry with chicken was amazing. But real winner was the deep fried codfish! Host was very friendly and got us a table quickly!!

We got the Pad Thai Shrimp and Pineapple Curry Duck and they were both amazing!
The Pad Thai was one of the best I have eaten in San Francisco. The Pineapple Curry Duck was very creamy and a bit spicier than expected, so be sure to ask for a milder version if you’re sensitive to heat.
The service was excellent as well.

Thai Cottage is a hole-in-the-wall restaurant very close to Ocean Beach. We ordered the crispy spring rolls which were pretty good. We ordered Thai Basil fried rice, Pad kee mao, Pineapple fried rice, mushroom garlic and Priaw Whan Tofu from the vegetarian menu and Crispy Chicken Fried Rice and Spicy Basil Chicken. We thought the vegetarian food was tastier. I personally liked their Pad Kee Mao the best, it was a little more on the spicier side. The mushroom Garlic was the next best thing, the pineapple fried rice was really good and very different from what I have had in the past. We also got mango sticky rice pudding and mango cheesecake. The stick rice pudding was not that good, but the mango cheesecake was delicious, everyone really enjoyed it and also the presentation was pretty as well.
Side note: we were at a big party with a big order and multiples of some things we had to keep a tab of what all came out as 1-2 dishes were missing.

The verdict:
Would I go back? – Absolutely
Would I order the same thing? – For sure
How’s the price? – Definitely fair for what you get, I’d honestly pay more if I had to

This tiny restaurant seriously offers some big flavor. We ordered both the Panang Curry and the Spicy Eggplant and Tofu and we couldn’t be happier with what we got. The Panang Curry, which I ordered, was deliciously spicy. Each bite nipped your tongue with heat, but the flavors definitely made the pain worth it.
As for the Spicy Eggplant and Tofu which my girlfriend ordered, it was cooked to perfection. The eggplant wasn’t too mushy or hard and the tofu was nice a slightly crisp on the outside and soft inside. Once again, this plate was full of flavor. I’ll definitely be ordering this one myself next time.
There was no wait when we arrived, however we filled the last table. The servers were quick to notice us, seat us and take our order. It was clear by the interactions between the employees and the guests that this place had a lot of frequent customers and they were very friendly with them, offering hugs and asking how things have been.
The food took a bit longer than you’d expect at a restaurant, but this didn’t go unnoticed by the waitress and she assured us that it was nearly finished and would be out soon. Yeah, it took a while, but the fact that the waitress didn’t just ignore us the whole time nor the problem made up for it. Plus, it was very clear when it did arrive that it was fresh and I can honestly say it was well worth the wait.
It’s also easily within walking distance of the western part of Golden Gate Park as well as the beach. If you’re in the area or just in need for some tasty Thai food that is fairly priced, then definitely hit this place up!

Cute inside, but took us a half hour to get menus and water an another hour to get the food! I also had some stomach issues after, which rarely happens to me.
