Great food but expensive! Be careful when ordering takeout, portions are tiny. I paid $14 for a cup of white rice, 1/3 cup of veggies, 1/2 cup of tofu, dime for size reference. Most restaurants would give u this whole container full of tofu & veggies and add a thing of rice on the side.

Pochana was super nice! The service was fast, and the people were very nice. I got the 12 dollar lunch special (soup + pad kee mao (not shown, but super yummy and spicy) + Thai iced tea). The prices were great and the food was good, I will be sure to come back !

My girlfriend and I were standing outside looking at the menu and a woman walked by and said “this is the best Thai food I’ve ever had” so we had to go in and try. It did not disappoint even a little bit! Perfect meal for a cold New York City day.

What a gem !!!
Truly !!
One of the most underrated Thai restaurant
The Star Dish: Scallion Pancakes (Fried Chive Cakes)
The Scallion Pancakes were truly 100/10! They were absolutely spectacular—crisp on the outside, bursting with chive flavor inside, and perfectly seasoned. If you go, this appetizer is non-negotiable; it's a crispy, flavorful sensation I’ve never tasted before.
🍽️ Main Dishes & Drink
The rest of the meal was perfectly executed and so well balanced:
Pad Kra Pow: Flavorful, savory, and spicy with aromatic basil, served beautifully with rice and a fried egg. A great version of this classic.
Red Curry: Rich, creamy, and deeply satisfying, with the perfect blend of spice and coconut milk.
Thai Iced Tea: The perfect creamy, sweet, and refreshing cool-down drink.
Special shoutout to the wonderful, warm and welcoming staff .
I’ll come again and again !!

Went for the early bird special, but the advertised price of $16 was misleading because any protein costs an additional $2 to $3. The portions were small, and I actually left hungry and grabbed a slice of pizza afterward.
The food was okay, but everyone in my party ended up with bad stomach aches and felt sick the entire next day. The service also left a lot to be desired. The waitresses were pushy and seemed visibly annoyed with our small group, which made the experience feel unwelcoming.
Overall, between the upselling, small portions, mediocre food, and poor service, I won’t be returning.
