Loved the 2 shrimp dishes we ordered, the shrimp cake as appetizer was excellent.
Our waitress Siri was friendly, helpful and always smiling.
Do try the lychee martini.“

“Food was great and service was very quick. Nice ambiance as well.“

“We ordered the corn fritters and lunch entres. We got appetizers from ordering the lunch menu, and got vegetable soup and spring rolls. Everything was very yummy, the corn fritters are crispy and delicious. The pad thai, pad see ew was good. Thank you!! Will come back again“

“The food here was excellent. I got the Pad Thai and it was one of the best I've ever had. Their appetizers are all very good. I'd highly recommend going here on a date or family dinner. Menu is a little pricy but worth it.“

“Excellent food and service“

“Great food, good ambiance.“

“An authentic Thai restaurant where you can adjust the flavors to your liking. We ordered roasted pork, Som Tum, and Tom Yum—the food was delicious, and prices were reasonable. The service and atmosphere were both pleasant. Recently reopened after a brief closure, it’s definitely worth a try!“

“Food was phenomenal, loved everything, one of the best places I’ve ever eaten at“

“I love Thai food in general and I have had a lot of it a lot of different places. This is the best chicken pad see ew I think I’ve ever had. The view of 1st Ave is super cute and they played great music so I can’t have asked for a better atmosphere and vibe. The service was lovely and fast. Presentation of the food was also a step above and the place is super clean. I’d highly recommend and I hope I come back soon too. Only complaint was $6 for a sparkling water which I didn’t realize I’d be charged for. Oh well. I’ll skip it next time.“

“I came here because of their amazing 4.9 rating on Google Maps, however, I was not amazed by their food. I got curry puffs to start my dinner. The puffs were nice and flavorful. The outside was light and flaky, and the insides were well seasoned with nice texture. The sauce came with was too sweet to my liking. Personally I prefer eating it as it is. I pad see ew with shrimp and added beef($5). The flavor was nice and the shrimp was fresh and clean. However, the beef wasn’t so good especially when I paid $5 extra for them. It was too dry and chewy.
Overall, it’s a standard Thai restaurant. The food was nice but nothing special about it.“

“Northern Thai at its best!“

“This is the best and most delicious Thai food I’ve ever eaten. You also have the option to make your dish spicy ~ which I LOVE. They made the panang curry extra spicy and it was phenomenal. Service is quick too! Highly recommend!!!“

“This place....all I can say is yum! My first time in NYC and I wanted all the food that NYC offers. You guys killed it. Fresh, spicy (just like I like it) and you laughed when I asked for chili paste, but brought it to me anyway. 😆I'm glad I tried it first because all it needed was some fish sauce. I don't even remember what I tried, something with pork, but OMG, it was heaven. Super friendly staff and fast service. I will definitely be back to NYC and definitely will go back to PURE Thai Cookhouse.“

“The grilled pork chop plate was on the money“

“Tam Mai Thai staff were super helpful picking what to try and very attentive. All the dishes I had were authentic and served hot. The pineapple fried rice was served in half of a pineapple which added to the flavor, and a fun way to eat it! They also use soft tofu, which is great in the Pad See Eiw. All the appetizers are delicious, but my favorite had to be the Curry Puffs, which are made using roti bread. Definitely check them out when you are in the area!“

“Churos Thai has a nice vibe whether for lunch or happy hour drinks after work. The ambiance, decor, and soft pop jazz give the place a hip feel. They have a full top shelf bar. The food was delicious. I had the lunch special spring roll, spicy basil fried rice with shrimp and thai iced tea, it was alllll goood!

Vegetarian options: The regular food was good. I assume the same for the vegan options (I did not try the vegan menu)

Wheelchair accessibility: Theres a ramp to enter the restaurant and enough room to be seated at a table.“

“Very good vibes. Love this! 💐🌺🍴🥢“

“Food and drink is great - authentic northern Thai food - duck isn’t greasy, the chicken liver & gizzards is to die for - everything is perfectly seasoned & the best part they made me my favorite salad - spicy cucumber salad which isn’t on the menu - will be going back for some more great eats!“

“Food was good. Got an original poached chicken and tried the fried chicken as well. Definitely enjoyed the fried chicken more. Well fried, juicy, and flavorful. The ginger rice was also very flavorful. Came with a small soup and salad. No complaints here!“

“Locals know this is *the* best Thai food in the neighborhood. For delivery especially, the food comes so fast it’s almost scary (did they know my order before I ordered it? How else could they get here so fast?). But the food is delicious and the portions are huge.

In person, Buffs is equally great. The vibes are fun and the service is super friendly and nice.“

“Incredible food authentic Thai food tastes using the best ingredients to achieve the taste of Thai food. Had the Som Tom salad with beautiful balanced flavours and perfect heat. The Tom yum soup was lost for words every spoonful was heavenly in my mouth, exceptionally made. Crispy chicken with cashews was a great dish a little less sweet the dish would have been even greater. Service was great by our waiting staff. Thank you for your hospitality the owner was very much involved back house and at the front of the house keeping customers informed. A little bit pricey but for food like this all Hollywood stars should know about this place, not in Greenwich or Tribeca but on 2nd Ave. Gem of a place don't miss this 4.9-starred TripAdvisor and top 10 Thai place to eat in New York.“

“Very good, well-flavored classic Thai dishes Lunch specials range from Pad Thai noodles or Khao Pat fried rice with choice of proteins to soups and salads. Each lunch includes an appetizer such as spring roll or soup. We tried a Tofu soup with vegetable fried rice plus a Tom Yum spicy soup with.Vegetable Yellow Corry. Also had a side of the yummy crab and lobster ravioli in spicy Thai sauce which had lemongrass flavors in an aromatic coconut milk broth. Lots of vegetarian and some vegan options. Good for adventurous kids too. Large menu for such a small place The tiny dining room is adorned in tree branches with golden leaves giving it an exotic yet cozy air. Very nice demure waitress, Quiet crowd. Good value for good size portions, would be great choice for a budget date night. Also a very welcoming place.“

“I recommend! The atmosphere is beautiful and cozy, and the staff is incredibly nice and attentive. The food is amazing, with rich, deep flavors.

My absolute favorite is the Braised Beef Basil (10/10)— savory and spicy, it’s a must-try! I’ve also had:
• Pad Kee Mao (8/10) – Very flavorful, but the noodles were a bit too chewy.
• Roti Massaman (8/10) – Delicious, but the cinnamon flavor makes it more sweet than spicy.
• Crispy Crab Rangoons (6/10) – Decent, but nothing special.
• Chicken & Shrimp Dumplings (5/10) – Just okay, wouldn’t order again.
• Pattaya Wings (7/10) – Pretty good, but not the best I’ve had.
• Panang Curry (7/10) – Tasty, but not outstanding.

Side note: I ordered the Braised Beef Basil all four times, and I’ve noticed the portion keeps getting smaller each visit! The amount of beef on the plate has noticeably decreased, which is disappointing. Because of that, I’ll be taking a break from it for now.

Overall, still a great spot with amazing flavors—I just hope they fix the portion sizes!“

“Absolutely Incredible food and family Owned service“

“Had the pad thai, chicken and basil and curry. All on point at a reasonable price. $15-20 per person with decent serving size for a lunch special. Owners so pleasant makes you want to keep coming back. Must have if you’re in the mood for thai food in the ditmars/ queens area.“

“I was recommended the beef noodle soup and that was very tasty, as well as my friend's pad kra pow. I would say that the drunken noodle did lack a bit of flavor, though. The service was very helpful and attentive, and I loved the vinyl theme they had going on. It felt like a Thai record store on the inside!“

“The best Thai food I have found so far in NYC. Relatively authentic taste, reasonably priced, friendly service, and less busy/crowded than the Thai restaurants on 9th Ave. Will definitely return. :-)“

“I gave this place five stars for one reason only: I wanted the people to read my review. If I gave one star, the review would be pushed back to the end. My review... Worst food we ever had in our lives!! Bland and expensive. It came with none of the toppings we ordered!! Tasteless and dry. I suspect the food was kept in the heat for most of the day. STAY AWAY FROM THIS S...HOLE!!!! It should be reported and closed. I can only imagine the unsanitary conditions of the place. Restaurants that do not care about the quality of their products do not care about hygiene.“

“Very nice restaurant, excellent food, loved the Roti and the salad, we tried the pork and the duck and they were great. Place is modest and deserves a good clientele. They went out of their way to make us feel at home, reserved parking for us.“

“The food is too good. Try any dish it is good. We love the Tomka soup it is too good. The green curry the yellow curry is too good. The staff and the owner are very polite.“

“Super friendly service. I ordered a pad see ew with chicken and it was delicious. Surprised to see such an authentic place on a commercial street on Steinway. Lunch specials are super affordable and good portion size. I'm looking forward to trying the duck egg noodles next!“

“A great local spot. Love being close enough to enjoy this restaurant. The staff/owners are super welcoming and make you feel like you are coming into their home. (They often have amazing incense burning that adds to a super warm and relaxing atmosphere.) When our stove was out, we dined here every night for a week. Everything I have had so far was more than a delight. Incredible Fish Fritters, Calamar, Pad See Eiw*, Chicken Basil Fried Rice (perfect amount of spice for me...lovely fresh red hot peppers), Pad Ma Muang*, and great cocktails. Love going to Happy Hour, and Martini Mondays. It is often a little too easy to have a wonderful meal, then when it's over move to the bar and enjoy another cocktail.“

“Love the menu. Cocktails are delicious 😋. Friendly staff. I love this place“

“Had an amazing meal at Land Thai Kitchen with a friend! The food tasted homemade and packed with flavor. Larb duck and crispy fish were the stars—so crispy, so tasty! Their mixed appetizer was a great start too.

Service was super friendly and made the experience even better. I’ll definitely be back with more friends next time!“
