"The food was quite good, with a nice level of spice. The service was very fast, but like many Thai restaurants, the dishes could have had more meat. The prices are quite reasonable as well. The place is small and clean, though parking can be a bit tricky. My son ordered a spice level of 7 and was pleased; he usually goes for a 10. I opted for a 2, but it could have been spicier. The waitress forgot our tea, unfortunately. Another table had the Pineapple Rice, and it looked amazing. We tried the Chicken Noodle Soup, which was delicious. I would definitely go back."

This is the best red curry I've enjoyed since my trip to Thailand! The vegetables were cooked to perfection, and the level 5 spiciness was just right. It's a great value, with delicious food and friendly service. I will definitely be back!

I had a craving for Thai food, and this restaurant comes highly recommended. The staff is friendly, and the food is excellent! I suggest if you order the Spicy Noodles with chicken, you stick to levels 3 or 4 for the spice – level 5, which I tried, was a bit overwhelming in terms of heat, though still tasty. Enjoy!

"I adore this restaurant. Golden Hill is filled with many many quality eateries, and Counterpoint anchors the neighborhood with it's fun atmosphere and dedication to quality. They recently renovated and the new space is open, airy and provides a variety of seating options: bar seating, restaurant seating, and upper balcony (I use this as a quiet place to WFH during the week), and an outdoor patio. I'm partial to the biscuit and gravy for breakfast, but the brined chicken and waffles or breakfast hash always makes me smile and sends me unto the world with a better outlook on life and a doggie bag. When it's hot, delicious crunchy salads are on the lunch menu and the craft beers and unique slushy flavors change. Counterpoint takes the quality of food and libations seriously. The craft cocktails rotate as the bartenders are encouraged to explore and grow. The owner and team are always warm, welcoming and make sure you have a good experience. Did I mention they are DOG friendly? Definitely worth the trip up the hill from downtown if you're looking to wind down after an event or precharge and eat before a baseball game. I love to bring my friends for a snack (try the olive selection) and chat on a twilight night. Space heaters outside if you get cold. Fans inside if you get warm. Honestly if you live in or are visiting the 92102 area code you should go to Counterpoint: good food, really good cocktails, and great company. It is clear that this establishment cares about quality, cares about your comfort and loves if you have a good time."
