Red Curry with Chicken, awsome. It's a nice place during happy hours too

by 2138nym

I recently went there because I heard about their Happy Hour. I had some cocktails, some free food with my Red Curry with chicken dish. It is right of the main drag of North Beach's famous Broadway area.

If you are in the mood for a new place for after work or Happy Hour. Try Citizen Thai.

• Pros: Great Place, good Thai
• Cons: Off the main drag of Columbus, Broadway area

Sometimes this place is great, other times not good at all. The pepper garlic shrimp (served only in the Monkey Bar) two weeks ago was outstanding: flavorful, crispy, perfectly cooked and served with a large portion of broccoli. Last night the same dish has subdued flavors and the breaded topping was falling off the shrimp, as if cooked in oil of the wrong temperature or left sitting too long before serving. It was served on a bed of lettuce with no broccoli. Papaya salad was fresh but bland; this should be a spicy dish. The freshness of seafood can also be a problem, particularly on weekdays. It does have a nice atmosphere, and when the food is good it's worth the visit.

• Pros: Food can be great
• Cons: Food can be substandard

Great food in fun and cozy north beach. Always full and lively. The food is very good and the decor impressive. I love to come here with groups and the wait staff are very accomidating. I usually don't write reviews but I love food and friends and I had such a memorable dinner here. my out of town guests, who are hip and fun, and of course added to the majic of the evening, really enjoyed it too.
