About us
Behind hed11 shines a spotlight on Chef Saint's exceptional ability to refine and elevate Thai cuisine. With the recent recognition of hed11 in the 2024 Michelin Guide, Chef Saint infuses his culinary insight, passion, and dedication into every dish.

At Hed 11, every dish is a masterpiece, meticulously crafted to challenge and enchant your palate. Our culinary ambition goes beyond the typical Thai fare known to San Francisco residents, featuring hard-to-find dishes like chicken curry with bananas, young coconut caviar 'babin' sticky rice pancakes, 'morgang' Thai custard cheesecake and 'yadong' Thai infused spirits - each with our own vision and approach to Thai cuisine.
Notable dishes include:
• Khanom Jeen Sao Nam with Scallops: This is a traditional Thai summer dish consisting of rice noodles in a flavorful coconut milk soup, elevated by the addition of fresh scallops sourced from the Bay Area.
• Sang Wa Pla Dib: A venerable Thai spicy salad recipe, this version uses fresh fish instead of the more commonly found shrimp, offering a unique twist.
• Koi Kung Krathong Thong: A cherished rarity within royal Thai cuisine, this dish presents an Isan-style shrimp salad served in exquisite golden cups crafted from fried batter.
Complementing our culinary offerings is a full bar, serving an array of unique cocktails inspired by Thai and Japanese liquors, alongside a thoughtfully curated wine list that harmonizes with our varied menu themes. Hed 11 offers an ambiance that fuses tropical allure with sophisticated luxury.
