Crispy pork basil with fried egg was pretty good. Butterfly pea drink was amazing.

The host and server provide absolutely terrible service, and the system is completely unreasonable. They strictly enforce a rule that everyone must order at least one item, and if you don’t comply, they will kick you out. On top of that, the servers have a rude attitude, which is obvious from their expressions. This is by far the worst service I’ve ever experienced at a Thai restaurant, and I will never be coming back.

Bad service and the chairs are so uncomfortable. The waitress was so rude from the start. I was polite and just chalked it up to grumpy people working.
Why are they treating customers like that?

I'm not sure why the waitress was so rude. I felt it right away when I was placing our orders. No smile and with a hint of disdain. I've always felt they were not super friendly but today I felt animosity. I brushed it off since I like their food. Then I started watching her with the other customers and she was full on smile and very nice and laughing with them. I continued to look and I realized she really is just acting this way with us. Is it bc we're not Thai? This really soured our dining experience.
I ordered 3 main dishes, a drink and side order and water for the table. The first 2 dishes I said mild, no black pepper. Obviously we don't want spicy. The last dish was the pad Thai and I forgot to say mild. She didn't ask either. Everything else was fine and my pad Thai was spicy on fire. I couldn't eat it but I didn't bother saying anything bc I already feel this bad attitude so I don't want to deal with it.
I think I would have been fine if she didn't smile at everyone else but bc it was only towards us, it made us feel unwelcome. Needless to say I tipped the bare minimum and I won't be back again. Sad bc I liked their food but there's plenty other Thai restaurants nearby.

I ordered takeout from Khao Nom and the order was ready relatively quickly (10-15 minutes).
🍗 BBQ Chicken: I feel like the skin could have been a lil bit crispier but the chicken tasted good. Dip it in the spicy roasted rice sauce (this is what they called it) and you’ll get a lil spice that is light and a great complement to the chicken and rice.
🍰 Thai Pandan Layer: I’m gonna be honestly, the pandan flavor was there but for some reason, it felt a bit artificial. Perhaps it was the jelly itself, I’m not sure. But they were soft and slightly chewy - easily melts in your mouth with just a couple bites.
Recommended dishes: Crispy Pork, Kao Moo Dang, Crispy Pork Belly

Best Thai food in NYC! Huge spectrum of rice dishes, soup options and stir fries. I’ve tried at least fifteen things off the menu and never had something I didn’t love. To top it off, the tea and coffee drinks are inexpensive and there’s a wide assortment of desserts. Highly recommend if you’re hungry in Jackson Heights!!

Diverse menu of desserts you don’t find in many Thai restaurants. The mixed pork dish was delicious with roast pork and crispy pork belly and a delicious black sweet dipping sauce, alongside sweet sauce, hard boiled egg, cucumbers, and a light cleansing broth. I’m a fan and I will come here again to try their other dishes.
