Hole in the wall Thai place with yummy food! I had the spicy eggplant which was delicious, and we shared the spicy Thai sausage. It’s definitely spicy! My wife had the garlic pork belly which she also liked.

We ordered from Sticky Rice last night on Door Dash and the food was absolute fire! So good. I had Thai sausage, samosas, and green curry with shrimp. Mama bear had drunken noodles and larb salad. We shared the mango sticky rice dessert. Ice cold jumbo Mexican cokes. 10/10. Reasonable prices, fast delivery, and fresh (super fresh) ingredients. Highly recommend. Were definitely going to eat from here again soon.

Excellent quality Isaan-Laos food. Veey fresh and full of flavors. Great rice ball dish. Server was attentive. Street parking. Put this cafe on Piedmont Avenue or Union Square and could charge twice the price.

I found this place randomly on yelp. I’m starving after a long day of travel and wanted some Thai food. After looking at pictures, I ordered through yelp and it was a very easy process. I ordered drunkin noodles with shrimp, crab Rangoon ( which are hard to find in Cali for what ever reason and they are my favorite), coconut curry soup. Everything is delicious! I also ordered a Thai iced tea.I mistakenly ordered 2 soups and they refunded me my money right away with no problem. Great customer service and I will be returning!

I love Laotian Thai food. The Pumpkin Curry with Salmon is so good. Creamy lots of flavor and fresh ingredients, just the right amount of heat. They have a fragrant brown rice mixed with red rice.

I’m a bit obsessed with thai curry (green in particular) and have tried what seems like every Thai place in SF, Oakland, Berkeley and Oakland. I’ve eaten at Sticky Rice twice nice and it has the best green curry I’ve had. Also had the salmon red curry, crab fried rice and pot stickers, all of which were excellent. Highly recommend!

Excellent, friendly service and the food was fantastic. We both got Tom Kha soups and the shrimp was some of the best shrimp weve had. They put a lot of care and effort in the quality of the food.

This Laotian hole-in-the-wall restaurant is a jade in the mud for food searcher. You need to try their Crispy Rice Salad.

Delicious food! I had the veggie yellow chicken curry medium spicy and was so delicious. Lots of flavor and large amount of veggies!! My fiancé got the Tom Yum soup and that was also equally delicious.FYI: If you order to go after 9:15pm you have until 10pm to pick it up but if your trying to dine in, they only seat until 9:30pm

Came here twice in a row! Im here on business and I love to find local thai restaurants. I ordered the beef green curry. I always get rice with it. So great!! I was going to try something different but i liked it so much i ordered the exact same thing the next day! Great job! Thank you

I was surprised that my entree didnt come with rice! Ive never ordered from a thai place that didnt include a little side of rice with the entrees. that was pretty disappointing. also, I ordered through a delivery service and theres no option for a smaller side of peanut sauce. Im only one person! I dont need that much sauce and Id rather not pay $5. it would be much better if I could get a 2oz-4oz side of sauce for a couple bucks. The sweet basil entree had okay flavor, but the chicken was minced, which I wasnt a fan of, and the veggies were skimpy. The thai coffee wasnt good either. There wasnt even a hint of sweetness in my coffee - just tasted like a regular black coffee with maybe a teeny splash of plain cream. over all, the entire meal was a let down - absolutely not worth $20. I dont think Ill be ordering from here again.

The curry we had was decent along with the fresh summer rolls. The pad Thai is the worst Ive had by far though way too earthy with a strong odor possibly too many bean sprouts, we also had a chicken dish that was just boiled tough strips of chicken with a sauce dumped on top leaving it flavorless and rubbery.

This place started out strong, great food. But somewhere near the middle of the pandemic I got rotten meat on two separate orders. I want to go back, but Im not sure the potential resulting stomach ache would be worth it.

I had the Thai Fried Rice with chicken and egg rolls. I paid $18, and it was worth every penny!! Great staff, clean room, excellent food! I highly recommend the Sticky Rice Cafe!

This is a small hole-in-the-wall so it fills up quick during lunch time. We ordered the Duck Noodle Soup, Pad See Ew, Kaopoon and egg rolls. Everything tasted good and the waitress was nice. Recommended!

Happened to be at a basketball tournament across the street and found this gem! I lived in Thailand and this is as close to real Thai food that I have had in years. We had lemongrass chicken and green curry chicken - delicious!! So good we came back the next day for lunch!!

No frills venue, but solid food. Staff is very nice, food is delivered quickly and is inexpensive. Love the soup and unsweetened thai tea that they bring to the table after ordering. Good food fast in a neighborhood that doesnt have much else going on.

My first time here. Peanut sauce is the thinner variety, has a distinct fish sauce smell, packs a mini heat punch and is soooooo tasty! I ordered the panang curry. So good. I will return!

Best Thai Ive found in the area. I wish they would deliver as its a pretty sketchy walk.

I went there on my Bday and was surprised that they serve curries without rice. So you pay extra for the rice? This is the first restaurant in the entire USA that I have visited, that does that. I thought curries were always served with rice. The place is small, noisy, expensive and food is okayish. Not going there again as I find Siam Bay in Oakland downtown much better.

A bit of a hole in the wall but definitely worth stopping by. We all had curries plus the tom kha and rice ball. Everything was delicious.The staff were very nice and very patient.Neighborhood is kinda janky but the food is really good. ;)

The small, unassuming restaurant on a slightly dodgy stretch of International Blvd. churns out delicious, aromatic, spicy, savory Laotian and Thai dishes. It serves rice plates and noodle plates, but the star attractions are the appetizers, in my view. The chunky sausages served with fish sauce and cilantro; the beef salad; and the sticky rice are a good sampling of the cuisines from far-flung Asia.

Always delicious!! Generous portions. The food sometimes takes a little while to be served, so not a good spot if you are in a rush --- but quality takes time.

Delicious and authentic Lao & Thai food for low prices in a clean and friendly environment.Highlights include: nam kao (crispy rice ball salad wrapped in lettuce and fresh herbs); kao piak (Lao chicken noodle soup); fish larb (either raw or cooked); and the hangover noodles (i.e. drunken noodles, for the pickier eaters).

I go there for beef noodle soup. Never disappoints. Located in a sketchy area but if you can get past that, youll have a decent meal at an affordable price.

Its... fine. The foods okay, and reasonably priced. Service was fine. Just a middle-of-the-road, unexceptional dining experience. Wouldnt recommend for or against.

I didnt like their food. Tasteless. Their beef is rubbering to me (people will called it tender, but to me is rubbering).
