Most of the food was amazing. The service was fantastic – everyone was so attentive, helpful, and friendly. The atmosphere is super relaxed. I really loved the Umami in the Kenmare cocktail.“

“Great Thai restaurant in downtown Brooklyn fort green park.“

“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.“

“This was my least favorite visit. The waitress wasn't amazing. The food was really good, but it's usually amazing. I would say it was a lot busier than I'm used to, so I'm sure that is the reason. I've worked in the food and hospitality field for many years and understand that part now what I don't understand is during a busy night the waitress being on her phone chatting it up with a co-worker while I'm there trying to get some more drinksand service. That was really disappointing. I also saw other tables of hers waiting at that moment as well, but I guess when gratuity is automatically included, you don't have to wow the customer. All other visits. I've had great servers this time, and I was not pleased.“

“delicious food. great music.“

“I went to La Mode BK for the first time on 8/6 — and I was right back the next day with a different friend. I think that says it all! The service, the ambience, the food, the drinks, the vibe… I love everything about this place.

The happy hour menu is both convenient and affordable, which is always a win. And can we talk about the ginger margarita and ginger martini? I’m obsessed with ginger, and both drinks were such a creative, flavorful twist — absolutely delicious.

I also believe this is a Black-owned and possibly women-owned business, which makes me love and support it even more. ❤️❤️❤️ This might just be my go-to spot for the summer 😌“

“The spicy salmon is great. The atmosphere is great to de-stress“

“It’s always a vibe and the food is consistently amazing even ifs it’s a late night“

“Excellent service and food“

“Literally one the tastiest places I’ve been in NYC and I’ve been plenty of times and have had a lot of food. The potion size was amazing and the flavors were on point. I still think of the rice to this day! Most certainly a must try.“

“Ok y’all have GOT to get to Chino Grande in Williamsburg. Great atmosphere, delectable food, and karaoke when you wanna get down.

Staff, servers, and management not only create a warm, welcoming atmosphere, but they’re also quick, attentive, and genuinely enjoyable to be around.“

“I always had a delicious lunch special dining experience at this Thai restaurant! Not only their lunch special is affordable, the portion was generous and their service was prompt. The chicken green curry was rich and aromatic, perfectly balanced with just the right amount of spice. The pad Thai had a wonderful mix of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors, while the beef with basil sauce was incredibly fragrant and satisfying. The restaurant itself was beautifully decorated with a charming, flowery decor that created a warm atmosphere.“

“Great quality food and service.“

“Wings are so delicious 😋 fast delivery“

“The curries are my fav! Dumplings are yum, and if you are a meat eater try Korean bbq short rib, it’s beyond! 😋“

“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.“

“The care and creative that’s put into each dish is superb. The pre-fix is an excellent deal. And it’s fam friendly even though the food is avant-garde in style. Nice service.“

“Great lunch spot with delicious food!“

“The food is too good. Try any dish it is good. We love the Tomka soup it is too good. The green curry the yellow curry is too good. The staff and the owner are very polite.“

“There is absolutely no monkey-ing around at Monkey King. From the moment you grasp the handle of the entry door, there is no way you won’t leave transformed. While being greeted by the oh so kind hostess, you are given a moment to truly embrace the aura of the space. Your eyes first gravitates to the immersive semi sunken bar surrounded by blissful golden barstools illuminated by soft light. As the hostess carefully walks you to your seat, you begin to feel the opulence of the decor melting away the stress of your day.
The journey truly begins once you scan the restaurant menu. There you will find an array of beautifully thought out cocktails, wines, and dishes that truly awakens one’s curiosity.
To begin our journey, my cousin and I thoroughly enjoyed the Char Siu and Scallion Pancakes to wet our palettes. Hannah, our server, patiently guided us through the cocktail options making superb recommendations. Our first round of cocktails included the Serpent’s Tale and the Immortal Peach. We then drooled over the Cumin Lamb Ribs and Roasted Duck- Fat Fried Rice. All dishes bringing us to euphoria. To close out, we ordered another round of cocktails that included the Heartbeet and Pandan Express. The cocktails were so incredible that I literally got out my seat and walked to our bartender, Thieanna, to give her applause.
Which, by the way she accepted with such humility. The craftsmanship of those cocktails surely deserves a spot on the 50 Best Bars in the World. And as someone who has been to five bars on the list within the last four months, the compliment comes with ease because they definitely belong on that list.
I want to express my gratitude to Thieanna, Hannah, Thom, De Cory, and Nana for such a superb dining experience. Little did they know that the warm service along with the outstanding meal helped me to kick the depression that was knocking at my door that day. So thanks Monkey King for a memorable journey. I will definitely see you again soon!“

“The food here is out of this world. Everything is so fresh, tasty, colorful, and delicious. The two sisters who run the place are very kind and again, love the food. Outside of Thailand, this is the best Thai food I've ever had in NYC!“

“Was in a job interview and early enough that I could grab lunch here. I just got back from Nepal & was craving momos.

Place is really spacious and at 2PM was empty - just one other table. Service was friendly - but the kitchen took longer than expected. Still - hands down - the best momo I’ve had in a very long time.

I’ll defo be back again! 😋“

“good price for food. $12 for a beef noodle soup was not bad. the noodle was soft and thin, which im okay with. the soup was not so special but go well together overall. beef, veggie, soup,.. were all decent. the only thing that kinda surprised me was the food in plastic bowl. hopefully they’ll change it cause you dont want hot food go with plastic container.“

“Everything was so perfect and flawless. From the start to the end, from the moment we entered and waited in the lounge bar to the service and the food.. It was a great experience. I want to thank our server Kara who made our night even better!“

“An amazing, friendly, caring customer service always☺️The BEST place to have a nice time, i HIGHLY recommend.“

“Consistently good food and great service. I love the yaki soba chicken noodles and the miso soup. The chicken teriyaki bento box with sauce on the side is great. Generous portions. I ordered no rice no salad and racially received extra miso soup. Love this place!“

“I wanted to try something different from what I would normally buy and Kathy recommended the Chicken Katsu. She promised that I would love it and I absolutely did. I loved everything about it. I really appreciate her bc she’s always kind and pleasant and very helpful.“

“Food is always fresh and yummy!!“

“the ginger salad was delicious. I also order calamari tempura .. sushi and sashimi was so fresh and delicious. will go again ..“

“Delicious food and good value too!“

“Lovely place we enjoyed it it was very cool“

“I hosted a private event at Moca and definitely will return for both small dinners and to host future events. The private room was perfect for the party. The food and service were impeccable. Linda could not have been more kind and accommodating. Overall, it was a perfect experience.“

“A fully vegan Korean restaurant situated right in the heart of Manhattan?! My west coast heart is pounding in jealousy and longing to return once again. It's often very hard to find restaurants that serve fully vegan Korean food so the fact that this exists is truly special. A lot of items will be vegetarian at best so to be able to have an extensive menu to order from is a treat. My friends and I came here for lunch and were seated fairly quickly in their hip restaurant. I ordered a couple of things: - Combination Pancakes consisting of sweet corn cilantro, scallion & spicy kimchi offerings. This was their take on traditional Korean jeon and I didn't realize they'd bring out so many small pieces for the table. My favorite was definitely the sweet corn cilantro. - Crispy Korean Chili Tofu Lunch Special, which included a soup and salad of the day as well as two additional banchan (including a pancake!) The tofu was fried to sweet perfection and the chili sauce was top notch. There ended up being more than enough food just from this alone. I hope this spot sticks around because I'll certainly be coming back to fill my Korean cravings without needing to play around with the menu at other restaurants.

“Great food and service. There are two sections, one for hibachi and the other for sushi. I went with a big party for a hibachi dinner and encountered zero issues! Staff is very friendly and they make the experience that more exciting. An ideal place for a family dinner or an intimate date. Recommended for any occasion!“

“I got take out - Chicken with broccoli and oyster sauce with Hakka noodles from their express lunch menu. It came with momos, chicken satay, soup and salad. Everything was extremly flavorful and fresh, the vegetables in the noodles and salad were fresh and crisp; the salad dressing was a perfect balance of sweet, sour and spicy. Simply excellent. I found a new favorite place for Indo-Chinese food.“
