Chicken curry puffs are great,Pad Thai was ok, chili turmeric beef was delicious but I wish the taste of the lime leaf isn't that strong.Waiting time could take up to 30 mins, but the service is fast.

Do not get put off by the tiny space and line . The food here is SO worth it. Get the pad thai , the curry puffs , the steamed buns , get everything. Service is incredibly efficient and quick.

Christina

Crab noodles is delicious. Homemade egg noodles and a bit soury sauce that's delicious. Prices are very reasonable but wait is typically very long because the restaurant is small

John A

One of the better Thai restaurants on 9th Avenue. Recommend the papaya salad - medium spicy gets you a nice bit of heat. Rest of dishes are fresh and flavorful. Plan to queue up to get a seat.

Laura Albers

First time here but I’ll be back. Quick, friendly service . Nice atmosphere. Pad see ew with beef is a touch sweet but delicious and nice ratio of beef and broccoli to noodles .

Elisa

Their Kao soi is solid and a nice compliment to the crab & pork dry noodles . There’s a wait even on snow days. Come during off peak (afternoon) to avoid wait!

Carrie

Other than the peppers in the papaya salad being extremely hot, it was very good. I also enjoyed the mixed appetizers , which includes curry puffs , curry dumplings , and spring rolls .

J. Longo

Excellent option for hungry, ramen-weary folks near Lincoln Center. Cozy & snug at times, but the food is more than worth a few bump-ins. Great character, great spices & great for repeat visits.

Konstantin

One of the best if not the most delicious Thai authentic place in the city ! Friendly staff , great service. A+ overall. Everything we tried was tastylicious!

Michael C

Everything we had was pretty awesome. 2 drinks, 2 apps, 2 entrees. All were terrific. Server was helpful as well .

Rita Baltazar

Ratchaburi Crab & Pork Dry Noodles is delicious! Fried rice also. For starter try the Steamed Beef Buns .

Nauman Noor

Still the go destination for street Thai food in Manhattan. In winter, noodle soup is hearty and warm try though easy to OD on carbs

Albert Freeman

Excellent & very authentic Thai, not the usual Isaan or Bangkok style fare found in NYC. Particularly enjoyed the turmeric beef & the fresh herbs in all the dishes, particularly the salads .

Simon Kratzer

Authentic Thai restaurant with very friendly service and cheap drinks .

Noah Weiss

Top 3 Thai food in NYC and great value . Sukhothai Pork Noodles Soup and Wok Chili Tumeric with Beef are both fantastic.

David Stein

Best Thai in Manhattan. The jungle chicken and anything involving noodles are where it's at.

Sung Hwang

Definitely get the pork noodle soup . The papaya salad is good too. Authentic and the best. But don't get pad thai . I think its their worst dish..(lol) get it in a less authentic place.

Dan Sohayda

Good food small space. We were able to walk in during lunch rush on a Saturday so don’t skip it thinking it’ll be too crowded . Only negative is I wish the portion I had was bigger!

Joey J

Pad Kee Moa, steamed ???? ‘s, pork buns , and pad Thai . Can’t go wrong with this place. Great Thai food . There is always a wait though. Beware.

John Colglazier

This was the best Pad Thai I have ever eaten. Highly recommend, even if there’s a wait!

Heather C

Incredible food. As good or better as food we had in Thailand. Get the pad see eew or any noodle dish . Noodles are so fresh. Worth the wait & can't wait to go back again soon.

Saeed

small cozy restaurant with quality food and good service . noodle soup is really yummy ????, shrimp and calamari salad was really tasty

Tali B. Goldsheft

Everything is great. The sake that comes in a can is great. The ginger curry calamari is great. The pad see ew is...also great. And the mango sticky rice dessert - freaking great.

Emily Wilson

The spicy beef salad is SO SPICY (but so good). The ratchaburi crab and pork dry noodles are also quite good.

Matthew Thornton

Did a four entree sharing thing with friends and everything was amazing! Thai tea was the best I’ve ever had also.

Angela Isabel

Get their signature pork and crab noodle soup - but with soup on the side and vermicelli noodles instead! You won't regret it!

A

Eater: noodles such as the crab and pork noodles , or Nakhon-Pathom duck noodle soup . Curry puffs are the best in town , and the raw crab version of green papaya salad is a revelation not for the timid.

Catherine

Our waiter was very considerate, he even provided us with a service cup of Thai iced tea , which was delicious. Their original thai beer Singha was a great choice. Lovely place.

Agnes Kumala

Order the ribs , curry puff and papaya salad for appetizers . Pork and crab noodle is great and so does the sukhotai noodle . Pad see euw beef is tasty. Close it with mango sticky rice ! Nyammm

Ki Choi

Hands down best Thai in NYC. Michelin star worthy based on flavor alone. Affordable and everything is delicious. Can get cramped during peak times.

Bree C

Amazing food! Went with 3 people and everyone loved their food. Really nice atmosphere. The staff was great.

John (aka “PHATFoodFan”)

Great authentic food but watch the spicy level, they make it really hot if you want it hot. Get the shrimp and calamari salad ! Perfectly grilled!

Ernesto Gutierrez

For appetizers the chicken curry puffs and the steamed beef buns . The nakorn-Patom duck noodles soup is superb, lots of flavor. I found the crab and pork dry noodles too plain in comparison.

Andrew Ibrahim

Brilliant Thai food ...reminiscent of being in Thailand. Ask to make it hot hot hot... Ribs and veg dumplings are great.

Sivan Dagan

Amazing! The dumplings were so special and delicious, lots of great wok dishes. Great Thai ambient- worth a visit!

Sunaina

One of my fav Thai places in the city . The spices and flavors are balanced. Team your dish with the coconut juice and everything will sit well in your tummy.

Carlos Sanchez

Divine - Duck Noodles & Shrimp and Calamari Herb Salad were out of this world. The Ratchaburi Noodles were good too, but a bit overhyped.

Yan Liang Sim

Authentic vibe - you'll forget that you're in NYC when you're in here. Great food. Get here just before opening time to snag a spot without a wait.

Peter P

This is the best Thai resto on Ninth Ave. Definitely try the Ratchaburi Noodles with crab and pork . I prefer it with soup , but it's great dry as well . Also, try the Chicken Curry Puffs !

Oui Wong

The noodles are particularly good here. I'm from Thailand and all the noodles dishes remind me of home!

Jens Lindemann

Had the jungle curry fried rice : rice was mushy (not crunchy like supposed), spiciness was taste overpowering. Som tam was great, like in northern Thailand. Music very loud , but Thai-pop ought to be.

Eileen

I always get the Ratchaburi Crab & Pork Dry Noodles and never regret it. Nakorn-Patom Duck Noodles Soup is also good. Expect to wait ~1 hour for a table

Tristan Tran

We waited about 30 minutes to have a seat... always a good sign when a place is crowed in New York! My duck soup was good, but I recommend you order something safe like the pad thai or pad see-uh!

Cheryl

Finally, an authentic Thai restaurant as good as Thailand! I've lived in Hell's Kitchen for three years and tried many Thai restaurants in the area - this one is a winner!

Eudia van Ravhost

The staff is very friendly , it’s clean and we ate there twice.. everything we had was delicious

Danielle Johnson

The best Pad Thai I've ever had! Also papaya salad with crab was incredible. Rightly rated highest for Thai in New York. Massively recommend :)

Alex

super delicious and harder to find that dishes, especially noodle soup dishes. both the beef and the duck noodle soups are incredible. the seafood one has some serious flavor. not to be missed.

Chuck Merriam

Wok chili pepper with chicken and spicy grilled beef salad were excellent. Dressing on the salad had a nice sweet and sour bite going on.

Thom

Amazing food & service. Ask for the daily dessert ! Generally better to make a reservation .

Geoffrey Salvatore

Amazing food in a truly authentic atmosphere with excellent Service. Grab a drink at McCoys Pub next door while you wait for your table.
