At Gai, we serve the slow poached chicken with rice as a classic dish. This Hainanese dish, also known in Thailand as khao man gai, employs a traditional slow poaching technique to extract clean chick…
We've ordered from this place a few times and usually love it - however, we noticed their portions significantly got smaller? For roughly $15 an entree we thought we'd get much more, particularly the chicken. We're still hungry after eating this meal :( still delicious though!!

I love their crispy chicken with chicken rice. It's very flavourful and still tastes great when re-heated. I strongly recommend the Hainan sauce - the ginger complements the chicken really well. The extra meat option is a good value for the price too.

The rice has an overwhelming amount of ginger, making it taste mostly salty and spicy. The chicken was overly salty, and the soup was packed with green onions, lacking the usual flavor of chicken soup. This is definitely not the chicken rice I'm used to. I’d say Rooster and Rice is much better.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in San Francisco. I frequently go there for lunch and they never disappoint! The food is delicious and on-time. The people that work there are friendly and, now that I am a regular customer, address me by my name. I love this place and highly recommend it - especially if you need a delicious lunch!

Absolutely recommend this fried chicken sandwich — it’s a flavor bomb in the best way. The fried chicken is insanely juicy with a perfectly crispy coating, and the spicy mayo brings a bold, fiery kick. Paired with golden, crunchy waffle fries and a fresh, crisp coleslaw on the side, it’s the kind of meal you’ll be dreaming about long after the last bite😋
