Osha is a multiple feeling word that means savory or yummy in Thai. It is special in that it does not get used often in conversation. Osha uses 75-90% organic ingredients. It is three months old and the owner and family have five restaurants. One, at which is a former pizza place. This is a Thai restaurant with caboom and a velvet lounge. Osha is right across the street from Beetlenut. Osha will give them a run for their money. This is good though. Humility keeps our quality high. Beetlenut has much too long of a wait. Instead, come over to Osha, breathe, be loved by great hospitality and Thai cuisine in the high notes. A full bar is open from 11-midnight everyday. Hey, and no line.
The gesso white waves go wall to wall in the main dining room. It is fun, soothing, and somewhat imaginative. The staff is Thai, as you know. Everyone is nice, young, and very upbeat. Whimsical music plays throughout the restaurant. It creates an edible, playful, atmosphere. There is a wall near the bar that is cherry with stripes of chocolate colored wood that lies close together with just a bit of space to reveal the cherry. It is one big cherry truffle. A female vocalist sweeps the atmosphere with an angelic voice.
The presentation is fresh and exciting. Beautiful flowers and fruits are offered as gratefulness for life and abundance. There is a care and dimension to Osha Thai cuisine that is unique. Don't be fooled, they have firecrackin' Thai chilies that are very generous with the other ingredients by the sheer diversity of their no skimping on what is needed in each dish. To bring home the authenticity of each dish, Osha (delicious) lines up to its many names. They also serve the most incredible short grain brown rice that I have ever tasted. The pumpkin curry is superb. The lemon glass tofu has a texture and taste that will excite your palate in memorable dreams to want it again and again.
Most of the dishes served at Osha (yummy) come from the northeast region of Thailand. Between the food, hospitality, cool soothing atmosphere, and great singing, I am having thoughts about Sawan. That means Heaven in Thai. Kate, my server is sweet and so wonderfully low key. I feel like I am having a hospitality massage.
For dessert, I had mango mania, which is a special version of sticky rice and mango. Osha serves Grand Patron. There are fifty bottles in California, and seventeen in San Francisco. Come dine and enjoy tasty, delicious, savory, yummy…Osha food.
