“Zheng helped me place a big catering order for my Law Firm’s lunch, she has the MOST patience in the world. She made it easy for me to place my order, kept in contact and even answers the phone * we all know how rare this is* she is the best. I highly recommend. This is our new favorite restaurant! Xoxo Zheng“

“This place is so homey. As a Thai who hasn't been back home for years, the dishes here really hit the spot. Their crab curry is very aromatic and rich in flavor (with a nice kick too). The softshell crab was so divine and the pork was delicious. We would definitely recommend!“

“I love green curry, if I could eat just one food for the rest of my life it's green curry so I'm picky when I try a new place and this place was INCREDIBLE!!! I inhaled this dish like it was my last meal and wanted more, and great service“

“Didn’t expect to find my best crispy pork belly of the year at a Thai spot!!! The skin was insanely crisp yet slightly chewy. The dipping sauce on the side was perfectly balanced.
For the main, we went with the panang short ribs. The beef was coated in a rich, mildly spicy curry. We added steamed veggies instead of rice and they fit curry.“

“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.“

“Went to Sappe NYC for dinner and honestly loved it. The food was so good. We tried a few different dishes and everything had so much flavor without feeling heavy. The pad thai and curry were standouts for me, and the drinks were great too.
Patt was our server and she made the whole experience even better. She was super kind, patient with our questions, and gave really solid recommendations. She checked on us just enough and made sure we had everything we needed without hovering.
Overall just a really fun dinner. I’ll definitely be back.“

“still thinking about the khao soi from chomp chomp thai. had the lunch special and the portion was generous (basically got my daily protein requirement from the juicy chicken thighs!), the broth was rich and hearty, and the crispy egg noodles made for such a delightful contrast. had it medium spicy and could have asked for a little spicier! but will be coming back because the food was delicious!“

“Plue is a very vegan friendly restaurant with a lot of options and alternative sauces that make it inclusive if you don’t eat meat. Most main dishes have the option to be made with Mock Duck or Tofu or Soy chicken.
I recommend getting of the curries with Mock Duck and Pad Thai or See Ew with soy chicken. The service was good. For starters you can also try the coconut roti, beetroot dumpling or Avocado summer roll.
On the pricy side but worth it.“

“This is one of my favorite Thai places (and I eat Thai a lot!). The food is great. The ambience is lovely and welcoming. And the manager, Tom, is incredibly gracious and hardworking. If something is wrong, he'll fix it.
I've brought so many of my friends here and it's become their favorite place too and they've returned here (without me 😅) too.
It's a lovely part of your day to come in here, be greeted by a welcoming smile, eat tasty food that just hits the spot, and get solace in the lovely little place.
So many Thai places rely on grease and cups of oil to be tasty. But this place does it differently, in the right way.
So thankful for this place and the manager!“

“This is a hidden gem in the east village!! Loved every dish we got but my favorite was the Roti Nam Keang which is curry with fried roti, it was so so so yummy. And the server was amazing too. Highly recommend if you are looking for Thai food in this area.“

“The food was excellent - the crispy duck tasted very crispy with the sauce, and the chive pancake tasted better than any other pancake. The service was very fast when delivering the dishes, delivering them all within 10 minutes of placing an order. Lastly, the atmosphere was very pleasant, the waitresses were very friendly and responsive. Overall a great experience and would like to go there again!“

“Visited here today in Harlem and the restaurant is very beautiful and cozy. My server was very kind, I did not get his name but he was attentive and everything came out pretty quickly. The food was amazinggg, portion sizes were great and everything was very flavorful. The Thai iced tea was lovely and the calamari and gyoza dumplings were fire too, as well as the Thai fried rice and the basil fried rice. I would definitely come back here again. Also was not expensive at all. 5/5 no complaints!“

“Excellent food and wait-staff. Beautiful ambience. However, front desk was rude and unhelpful. We waited more than 20 minutes after our reservation time to get a table. Front-desk staff either ignored us when we tried to ask them or gave extremely curt answers.“

“WOW!!! 10/10 would recommend and would 100% return. I booked as a surprise anniversary for my partner and I and expected it to be gimmicky - not at all!! The food alone is worth the price and more - phenomenal!! Creative and delicious. I’m not usually easily impressed, lived in nyc for 10 years and have dined at so many restaurants… this one really blew me away. And the experience!! The service!! It’s like a tour of Bangkok without being there - so cool. Highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed!!“

“This is a 2nd floor Japanese-Thai speakeasy in Alphabet City where the food menu leans toward Japan while the drinks are Thai-inspired with the menu designed by veteran NYC bartender and Phetchaboon native Sayparn. Her and her partners opened 11 Tigers in 2022 (year of the tiger which symbolizes success). The staff do an excellent job of mixing food and entertainment.“

“This was for sure the highlight of my week. I stumbled in for lunch by chance and will absolutely be back. The food was incredible and the service was exceptional from start to finish. The manager and owner were both so kind, which made the experience feel even more special. I loved the pad Thai and Thai iced tea, and Gigi who took care of me was an absolute angel. She was so warm and kind and made the whole experience feel so personal and welcoming. The restaurnt itself was beautiful and the prices were very reasonable too.“

“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.“

“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!“

“We always order take out from here but decided to dine in and so happy we did! We sat in the back patio which is covered and had live music. Very nice ambiance.
Food was very delicious as always. A little spicy but the right amount even for those who like mild.
Mind ohm fah was our wonderful server. Very attentive and gave good recommendations.
Can’t wait to come back!“

“Such a great hidden gem for lunch. The space is cozy, aesthetic, and thoughtfully decorated — it has that perfect “hole in the wall” charm while still feeling cute and welcoming.
I ordered the lunch special and got the Thai basil fried rice with shrimp, along with soup and fried chicken, all for around $17, which is an amazing value for the portion size. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and well-seasoned.
I also grabbed a Thai iced tea to go for $6, and it was the perfect addition.
The service was attentive and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I didn’t feel rushed at all, which I really appreciated for a solo lunch.
Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a cozy and affordable Thai lunch.“

“I have ate at Tom Yum Koong for quite some time, almost since the time I was 15 years old. I always grabbed a bite here after tutoring and extensive study hours.
After graduating, I am practically a regular now and have tried at least everything on the menu except for the chef's specials and several appetizers. I'm sure they are great too and worth sharing as a family.
For what it's worth, the owner, Anne is a wonderful person. She is enthusiastic about her culture, her dishes, and everything she provides to her customers is simply the best. Though, the food can be heavy and forced me to go into deep food comas at times! In fact, I was so hungry one time that I ordered a Pad Thai with extra noodles! It was crazy, but the consistency and use of aromatics, as well as sauce was amazing.
For starters of Thai cusine, I recommend anything from their lunch special. The salad, soup, and entree was worth it. I suppose that the portion is less than their dinners, but mind you, everything tasted delicious! However, the only thing I'd say is that the food has gotten expensive. It makes sense, so be very careful of ordering here like I did.
As for tipping, it is required here for sit-down and encouraged for takeout. I tend to eat here alone, and there's no shame in that, but I always tend to tip around $2-3. The restaurant does not do any Uber, Door dash, or anything of the like, so if you order, you'd need to pick it up yourself after calling the store, or wait until at least 5pm and call them for delivery. They accept either cash or card, but if it's card, you'd need to tell them your card information and the amount to tip.
Regardless, Tom Yum Koong is a great restaurant. Given how long I have been eating here, the owners treat me pretty much like family. I guess it's a good thing, but it's also probably because I always prefer eating here more than anywhere else!“
