“Penang curry with chicken was awesome!“

“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.“

“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.“

The service is great and the food is even better. The flavors and menu is so authentic.

“We sat on the terrace, which turned out to be one of the highlights of the visit. The food was good and nicely prepared, although we missed some of the heat and bold spice levels we usually associate with Thai cuisine. Even so, it was an enjoyable meal in a great outdoor setting.“

“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!“

“Incredible meal. Fish cakes Larb. But the beat was Drunken Noodles with duck.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Wonderful food prepared by loving people - making it even better for you!“

“The food was very good, and our server, City, was incredibly kind and helpful with recommending dishes. We had the fried chicken wings, shrimp donut, and the special BD menu ravioli. We finished with the coconut cake, which was excellent. The cocktails are delicious too. I would definitely recommend this place and would come back to try other items.“

“Great cocktails , dark , adult vibe , friendly staff , tasty food large portions !“

“Fresh and delicious. We loved the starters and the Beef main. Fun place.“

“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.“

“Loved it so much, my first time here for lunch. great service from Kelly and Kay 👌👍🙏 will definitely be 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.“

“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!“

“Best Halal Thai Really good food. Loved their t-bone steak. Worst part was forced 15.00% tip :/“

“Elephant District in DUMBO exceeded every expectation for a family dinner. From the moment we walked in, the entire staff made us feel genuinely welcome — the host set a warm tone and our server Kay was absolutely exceptional. She was patient and attentive with our kids throughout the whole meal, checking in multiple times to make sure they were comfortable, gave them orchids to play with, and even took a moment to teach them how to say hello and thank you in Thai. That kind of warmth and thoughtfulness is rare and it made the whole evening truly memorable.

The food was outstanding. We ordered the crab fried rice, chicken kra prow with a sunny side up egg, spring rolls, and chicken wings. Kay brought chili fish sauce with the kra prow without us even asking — it was the perfect touch and really completed the dish. The seafood sauce that came with the crab fried rice was genuinely one of the best things I’ve tasted. Our kids are notoriously picky eaters and they finished every bite of the crab fried rice and chicken wings — that says everything. The vegetable spring rolls were a hit too.
We ended with mango sticky rice and it was a perfect finish — the mango was beautifully sweet, the sticky rice cooked just right, and the presentation throughout the whole meal was top-notch.

Even the decor was a win: our kids were completely entertained by the elephant wallpaper art (elephants eating tom yum and noodles — genius). We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend!“

“Loved everything ordered here! The Pad Krapow Pork was super flavorful with just the right amount of spice, and the Thai Tea Pad Thai was such a fun twist — rich, slightly sweet, and perfectly balanced. The Leaf Pudding was light, fragrant, and a really unique way to end the meal. Cozy vibe and great Thai comfort food.“

“I ordered on Uber eats. because my phone number was wrong I didn’t get my food until an hour later, but they tried to address this issue actively. and though the food turned cold when i got it, it was still quite delicious(quite beyond my expectation!) Appreciate the effort and the delicious chicken. 🙂

Though I think it’s ok to just leave the food at the front door of the building, like hanging on the doorknob and just take a photo. (That might be more of an feedback for the courier)“

“I went to Thailand a couple weeks ago and came to New York for a work trip, decided to come to this place and it’s just as good if not better than the authentic Thai food I ate in Thailand, 10/10 would recommend, and such great prices too, golden spot to have in New York“

“Prince & I feels less like a restaurant and more like being invited into someone’s home for dinner — in the best way possible.

From the moment we walked in, the owner personally seated us and ended up cooking our food himself. He has a quirky, memorable personality that adds to the charm of the whole experience. It’s the kind of place where you can tell the food is made with intention rather than being rushed out of a big commercial kitchen.

The dishes were packed with flavor and tasted very authentic. You can really tell the ingredients and spices are balanced the way Thai food should be — bold, savory, a little spicy, and deeply satisfying. Everything we ordered had great texture and presentation as well.

Overall, it was a unique dining experience with authentic flavors and a memorable host. If you’re looking for a polished corporate restaurant this isn’t it — but if you want something personal, quirky, and genuinely delicious, Prince & I is absolutely worth visiting.

Would definitely come back.“

“That was some of the best Thai food I've ever had. I only have their chicken satay with gravy and their pumpkin sticky rice and bothe ere so good. The chicken was like perfectly cooked, it was juicy but also kind of crispy and had a good char. The sauce was so perfect too, the right amount of peanut flavor and spice. The pumpkin sticky rice was also the perfect amount of sweetness and creamy-ness. I'd love to come back here and try more.“
