Go-to thai place near UST! The Pad Thai is affordable and packed wih flavor! I liked that it had more of a nutty taste which balanced well with the bean sprouts. Noodles were also cooked perfectly. Serving size was good for 2-3 people. I also got the Sweet and Sour Pork toppings. Rice portions was more than the pork but flavor was okay. My boyfriend ordered the Hofan Soup, and he really liked it. It can also be shared by two with plenty of beef and noodles. He was really satisfied with the soup saying it was delicious and filling. I also liked the Iced Thai Tea as it wasn't too sweet nor too creamy.The place is outdated but still decent and clean with good ventilation.

This is where I had my first taste of Thai food. The place has deterioted through the years. Back then, they had nicer chairs and tables. Now, it's all monoblock and very dingy. I'm happy the food hasn't changed at all. My usual order is the Beef Fried Rice, Seafood Fried Rice, and Bagoong Rice. Back in college, S.R. Thai was beyond what I can afford. We usually went here to splurge. Now, I can afford everything on the menu, but I tend to stick to my old favorites. The food here brings back so much college memories.

SR Thai was my first real exposure to Thai cuisine. Being clueless about it, I ordered their more Thai-neutral dishes at first. Then, in subsequent visits, I'd get more "adventurous" in ordering. Initially, we thought we'd order Bagoong Rice plus Sizzling Beef para kanin at ulam but the former can stand alone since it is already flavorful and there is already a generous serving of pork strips. Easily, my favorite dish of them would be their Pad Thai. I like how they have a provision of calamansi, peanuts, and sugar on the side so you can mix it to your liking.Pro tip: add their sweet oil and chili flakes to everything to make it better.Correct me if I'm wrong but I think SR Thai remains to be the only Thai restaurant in the area. I don't think anyone would dare to go against a staple such as SR Thai. It's expensive relative to the places to eat at in the area but affordable enough for when you feel like eating something authentically Thai.
