50 Best Thai Restaurants near Kew Gardens

“Tiny place that has great food. A few people could dine in if needed. Only problem I have is the portions have shrunk by a good 20 percent. We do a take out regularly (once a week) and find that over the past 5 months, the amount of food has decreased per order“

“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!“

“Obao is one of my favorite restaurants in NYC! I have never been disappointed here. Best atmosphere, staff, food, and drinks all for a reasonable price. Highly, highly recommend!!! Especially the calamari 😋“

“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.“

“Excellent food and service“

“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.“

“Great food and very friendly staff!“

“terrific service and food! the Sake Mojito was fantastic!“

“My daughter graduated college and this was her choice for a family dinner after such a long day! Such an amazing experience. From the second we arrived until we left service was excellent. Thai food was delicious and the cocktails were unique and highly recommended. We had a decent size party and they accommodated us comfortably and every one of us enjoyed our meals.“

“Where to start? It’s pretty much hole in the wall and rare gem on the south side of Willys. Ain’t no lies their rating attracted my picky tongues to this place. Ain’t no lies them stars did me no wrong. From start to finish, my food came out timely manners. Crying Tiger! Crispy Pork! Bottomless Mimosas!!!!! You get unlimited booze til loose!! Highly Recommend.“

“Excellent lunch menu prices and great food. very polite personnel and great Birthday singing. tried fried ice cream which was delicious. Would definetly go back again.“

“Love the food and service Great place to go back again!!!!!“

“Came for the smashburger on NYE and it was probably the best burger I’ve had all year. The flavors work together so well with the perfectly juicy patty, and the fried duck egg (a must!) is the icing on the cake. Paired it with the rice lager beer and it was the perfect lunch - just wish they offered it during dinner as well. Service can be a bit slow during peak hours but they were all very nice.“

“We were drawn across the street purely by the smell of great food and instead of sitting on a waitlist, we decided to see if Nuaa Table had a table open for two. We were instantly greeted by warm and friendly staff that luckily had availability. Besides the cozy atmosphere and creative menu, we were so pleased from the first bite (the duck buns) and felt glad to have stumbled upon this restaurant. From posh presentation, to street classics, even basil fries that will leave you surprised - all together it was a great dining experience. we will definitely coming be back to Nuaa Table and we’ll be brining friends!

“Food was phenomenal, loved everything, one of the best places I’ve ever eaten at“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!!“

“Very pleasant experience! Food was delicious, my kids loved every moment, and the ambience 😍“

“The space is configured like a film set: you are in some backwater honkytonk in a remote outpost in Thailand in the 70’s. Psychedelic Thai music along with some disco blares loudly beneath the flickering lights, corrugated metal awnings, advertisements for beer, Fanta, god-knows-what hair care products — it actually looks like a sort of Thai bodega. Leaning forward from your antique movie theatre seat and peering into the downstairs you see large glass jars illuminated with red light. Some Mephistophelian herbal concoctions. On a large screen plays some grainy indifferent Bruce Lee knockoff from the 70’s. You get the picture….“

“This is the best and most delicious Thai food I’ve ever eaten. You also have the option to make your dish spicy ~ which I LOVE. They made the panang curry extra spicy and it was phenomenal. Service is quick too! Highly recommend!!!“

“super rico todo lo recomiendo al 💯“

“Such a cozy place. We had a pretty big party and the staff was so accommodating. A few of us sat at the bar, where Terry made us all delicious cocktails (I had the Field of Violet, pictured below). Once we sat, TK was so kind and patient. There were no discrepancies with the orders, which was impressive for such a large party. The food came out quick enough and was DELICIOUS. I ordered Pad See Ew and finished before I realized I never took a photo. Definitely will be back!“

“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.“

“Our food was outstanding. We ordered takeout and ended up choosing the wrong location. They actually brought our food over to the restaurant we were waiting at despite our error. This was above and beyond and much appreciated. We will definitely go back.“

“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.“

“Went here in the mid afternoon in a Sunday and it was a perfect t lunch. The restaurant decor is ADORABLE. The menu is creatively designed and had good options. My friend is vegetarian and had a good variety to choose from. I am not vegetarian and also did not feel limited at all. I had the beef pad Thai and it was DELICIOUS. My friend had the garlic sauce with tofu and veg and that was also flavorful. Both main dishes had large portions. Drinks were good! Service was friendly and good too! Overall I’ll definitely be going back ☺️“

“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!“

“I had the hainanese chicken with liver over gingered rice, really well executed and super delicious. Absolutely loved the taro in coconut milk too , not too sweet, lands all the flavors I wanted in taro. Service was speedy and attentive, I highly recommend this place.“

“Tried this Thai restaurant in Sunnyside and it didn’t disappoint. The thai fried rice & green curry were flavorful & met my taste expectations. The curry puff had a perfectly flaky crust, & the pumpkin custard dessert was a sweet, satisfying finish. Overall, a good choice for tasty Thai food.“

“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 went to Chiang Mai, Thailand not long ago and have seriously been missing Northern Thai food, so finding this place made me really happy. I ordered the Khao Soi Stewed Beef and it instantly brought me back — rich, flavorful, and exactly how it’s supposed to taste. The See Khong Moo Cob Hang Lae was also amazing, super tender pork in a curry sauce with ginger that felt very authentic.

I really appreciate this restaurant for bringing true Chiang Mai flavors to Brooklyn. The food was great, the service was friendly, and everything just felt warm and welcoming. So glad I found this spot. Definitely a must-try if you love Thai food.“

“Delicious food, delicious Thai-Laos flavor. Recommend to come to this restaurant you won't be disappointed.🤟👍“

“Great Thai food in the city.“

“I have eaten there many times and have always been happy with the food. The staff is very helpful and the restaurant is very relaxing .“

“I always order on Uber Eats but since I was near by at a park, I figured I go in. Best decision ever!

Service: Amazing 💕💕 it was pretty busy for a week day but the food came out fast and tasted amazing. I think name of the drink I the photo is Tim tub (ruby). Not too sweet but very good.

Atmosphere: cozy. Small place but there is out door seating. I sat inside and the AC was great. Not too cold.

Food: I order a soup. It had crab meat, pork and a dumpling in it. Not spicy but they put hot sauces on your table in case you want to add spice.

Wheel chair accessible and family friendly.
Total was 39.20

I will be back 💕💕💕💕
Thank you!“

“Must try... Great hospitality and food. Yummy 😋“

“Cute family owned and operated Thai spot. The food is delicious and flavorful. The family is so sweet and cute.

They were making little almond cookies at the table and before I left, the gave me one. Also delicous.

Eating Thai food warm and in the restaurant has no comparison to delivery.

Thai dumplings & chicken Phad Thai !“

“Delicious food, delicious Thai-Laos flavor. Recommend to come to this restaurant you won't be disappointed.🤟👍“

“This is our second time coming here, and it’s already our new neighborhood favorite. The food is excellent, the vibes and decor are so fun, and the service is great - Yani took such good care of us as walk ins during a busy Saturday night. And if you come during mango season, the mango sticky rice is a must have!“

“We just had the most delicious meal from this family owned Thai restaurant! I had a dietary restriction and they were so kind about it and helped accommodate our needs. I very highly recommend trying them out! Make sure to get the fried ice cream at the end! It’s 1000/10 :)“

“Hello, this is my first time trying Thai food. Excellent service and AAAA+++++“

“Ambiance and variety of food not found in normal Thai restaurant. Food is great. Will come back again“

“I chose Holic Thai Bistro for a lunch meet up with a friend because of the location. I was delighted that I chose this beautiful restaurant when I walked in! The decor and atmosphere was great. It's a small restaurant but typical for NYC/BK and the layout flowed perfectly! I wanted to try so many things on the menu but decided to get the dumpling soup and a side a fried rice because it was 20 degrees outside! The food was great just the right amount of wontons and bok choy to fill me all the way up! The staff was very attentive gave great feedback and information on menu items. I had a lychee Thai iced tea for the first time which was great and included 2 sweet lychee fruits. My friend has the chive pancakes they were crispy and different from other chive pancakes but the flavor was on point. The green curry was also delicious! Overall I'll definitely go back great staff, very good food and beautiful atmosphere!“

“😍 The food is fantastic , also the service i enjoyed the whole brunch with friends“

“Good food , great service“
