" Delicious! Everything we ordered was superb, especially the BBQ pork and chicken! The freshness of the ingredients stood out to me, making the flavor pop. I was so happy with my meal. The atmosphere is what you'd expect from a local eatery, not too fancy, but charming in its own way. A definite return is in the cards for me! " (*Curated Review*)

" Despite its basic interior, Sai Jai Thai offers some of the most authentic Thai fare you can find in the city! Every dish I tasted there was fresh and flavorful. The BBQ pork shoulder was outstanding, but I also loved their noodles. I'll gladly ignore the atmosphere for such delicious food, and I plan to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Yum! My friend suggested Sai Jai Thai, and I’m so glad I went! The BBQ pork shoulder was rich and flavorful without being overwhelming, a perfect dish for a rainy day. I am not familiar with Thai cuisine, but the staff was very helpful in guiding me through the menu. This is definitely a spot I will return to! " (*Curated Review*)

" Went to Sai Jai Thai on a whim and there I found comfort food at its finest! The flavor profiles were so authentic; the BBQ pork shoulder was a dish I’ll dream about. The service was friendly, and while the dining area is simple, the experience was incredibly satisfying. I made a point to visit on my next trip to San Francisco! " (*Curated Review*)

" WOW! I am thoroughly impressed by Sai Jai Thai! The BBQ pork shoulder was hands down the most flavorful dish I've had in a long time, and it’s huge! Staff was super friendly and welcomed us warmly as soon as we entered. Loved the casual setting too,great spot for some comfort food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn't too impressed by the food to be honest. The flavors didn't stand out, and I was expecting much better given its reputation. The pulpy, overcooked chicken wings were tasteless, and the atmosphere wasn’t the best either. I might try it again for their highly rated pork dishes but I’m not too eager. " (*Curated Review*)

" I walked in feeling a bit apprehensive due to the area, but man, was I pleasantly surprised! The food was absolutely delightful. The papaya salad was a perfect balance of flavors, and the fried rice was just right—not too oily or dry. The service was quick, and I left with a full belly! Would recommend this place to anyone looking for true Thai flavor! " (*Curated Review*)
