“I absolutely love this place. Thai is my favorite cuisine, and obviously NYC has so many amazing Thai restaurants with incredible food, but there is something about Raenu Thai that makes it really special. I had ordered pickup from here a couple of times before and always really enjoyed it. One time in the winter, I went to pick up an order when it was literally below zero outside, and they were giving everyone hand warmers. I thought it was SO thoughtful and sweet and never forgot it. I feel like that says so much about the kind of place this is. Today I finally went to eat there and WOW. The restaurant is such a cozy little hole-in-the-wall, and everyone working there was so kind and welcoming. There is just something about the place that feels warm and familiar, and you genuinely feel taken care of. And the FOOD!!! Everything was SO flavorful. The portions were generous, the spice was perfect, and everything just hit the spot. We have some dietary restrictions (no meat, eggs, or fish sauce), and they were so accommodating about it. And despite all of that, the food was still incredibly flavorful and delicious. They also came by a few times throughout the meal just to make sure we were happy with everything and that we were satisfied with our dishes, which I really appreciated. My favorite Thai restaurant from my hometown recently closed, and I've been really sad about it because I haven't found another place that gave me that same homey, comfortable, familiar feeling. Raenu honestly did. We all agreed that it reminded us of the kind of place you keep going back to because you know the food is going to be good and you just feel comfortable there. I seriously cannot recommend this place enough! The food is SO good, the portions are great, the people are so kind and the prices are also really fair! I already know this is going to be my go to Thai spot. So happy I found it.”
