A hole in the wall in a dying strip mall, I am always surprised when I take friends here and they ask me to go again months later. One of the better Thai places in the bay area. A lot of places up here are lacking flavor in the sauces, but Red Chili does a pretty good job. I would avoid some of the house concoction drinks, they're a bit sugary with not too much flavor. Tom Yum and Pad Kee Mao are go to dishes from here.

The food is flavorful and there are plenty of good options. I haven't tried everything, but the ones I have ordered I have been very happy with.  I normally order it to go and they have their own QR code so you can avoid the extra cost that doordash charges. I love the curries, the grilled chicken thighs, and the roti.

We love the food here! Highly recommended: roti (we have to get 3x every time), pad see ew, and yellow curry. Service is also exceptional. Will definitely come back again and again.
