Best Restaurants for Spicy Food in Forest Hill / West Portal

Great food and drinks Pozole was amazing, as well as the burritos and salad!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Bombay Brasserie, and I have to say, it was quite the experience! From the moment I walked in, the vibe was warm and inviting, with a mix of modern decor and traditional touches that made me feel right at home. I tried the butter chicken, which was simply divine. The richness of the sauce paired perfectly with the tender chicken, and I couldn’t resist mopping up every last bit with naan. The staff was attentive and friendly, making sure my glass was never empty and checking in just enough without being overbearing. I really appreciated their recommendations, too; they helped me pick out a dessert that did not disappoint. The pistachio kulfi was creamy and refreshing—just the right way to end the meal. Overall, Bombay Brasserie is a wonderful place to enjoy delicious Indian cuisine in a cozy setting. Whether you’re a fan of spicy food or just looking to try something new, I highly recommend checking it out

Good food and knowledgeable staff. I have been there a couple of times and always had a good experience. This time around four of us shared a lot of small plates. Keeping everyone’s dietary needs of no meat, or no gluten, or no shell fish, we were still able to get a good array of small plates to feel satisfied and full. I have had the main entrees too and they are equally delicious. The desserts offered were delicious too.

Food is superb! Our table loved everything we had and the wine selection was small but good and paired well with the flavors. Be sure to check the hours though, they close on the earlier side and when we arrived at 7:30pm for our reservation we were told the kitchen closes soon and last call at the bar was at 8pm. Servers were very nice and friendly, but everything felt rushed and couldn't quite enjoy the full experience. However, great place for Thai food, some of the best I've had in SF, but recommend coming earlier if having dinner.

The Clay Oven has been a favorite of mine for many years. Whether I order take out, dine in, or delivery, the food is always hot and delicious. I recommend this place to everyone, it's a restaurant that you have to try.
