    I had ordered vegetarian Singapore Mei Fun and vegetarian fried rice. I was given Mei fun with shrimp and some meat ( not sure whether it was chicken or pork). The food was bland and had an aftertaste to it that I didn't like.

    They're prepared for trick or treating

    not going to eat lunch there again! I shopped at this "Asian Cafe" (yeah I put on quote because it's not a cafe, it's a typical Chinese restaurant that you see a lot at your neighborhoods) for lunch. What I ordered was the Pad Thai, they don't add tofu on the Pad Thai only vegetables, chicken or beef, which is disappointing. However, the guy said he could do it with tofu, thank god. When I got my food, the Pad Thai looks a bit unusual compare to other Pad Thais' that I ordered. The noodles taste a bit hard and the sauce taste like a mixture of duck sauce and ketchup. The season that they put on the Pad Thai is questionable because some of it might be either antenna of an insect or a small hair. Move on to the tofu, it taste ok and they cut it like they're french fries. Overall I don't like their Pad Thai, but the tofu that the guy made it for me taste ok.

    I came here with two others for dinner on the eve of a world cup games. It was very busy so we were…read moreadded to the waitlist and then walked around the area until they called us. Service was great and efficient. Shortly after we sat down, we were greeted by our server and received water. One member in my party has a gluten sensitivity, and when we mentioned this, our server brought out a gluten-free menu! It has a great selection and my friend was overjoyed with the options. The food was delicious and a bit spicy, even at the mild option. If I was there for lunch, I would have ordered a Thai ice tea (the drink had too much caffeine for me the evening ). The food was delicious, and is something that we'd all order again. My favorite part of the evening was the tv playing a Thai cooking show. There were no captions or subtitles so I kept asking the server what veggies were on screen, and they too didn't know because there was no caption. A fantastic restaurant worth hitting up if you're in the area.

    Make a reservation if you plan to dine here - this place is TINY!…read moreGreat prices and good portions here. I will begin by saying I wasn't fond of their lack of vegetarian modifications (ie shrimp paste in all of their curries that couldn't be removed, oyster sauce in everything, etc). I am vegetarian, luckily not too strict to where I wouldn't order these items because of it but it is a bit deterring. The food here is good. I really enjoyed their Pad Se Ew, Pineapple Fried Rice, and Green Curry (all with tofu of course). Their drinks are really fun in their presentation, but they were more on the sweet/juice-forward side. We were a bit disappointed that they didn't have their mango sticky rice for dessert, but the fried ice cream was solid.

We went on a Saturday for lunch to the Rego park location on Woodhaven blvd driving at least an hour as we live in Suffolk county NY. We had the Phuket appetizer spread & the fiery wings. The drinks were amazing also the mango/tango, lychee paradise & rose fizz were great with the smoke presentati The service was great, the food was amazing & all of the mocktails were impressive & tasted amazing. I'll definitely be back. I would rate each item as follows: Food--8/10 as everything we tried was tasty including appetizers. Ambience--7/10 the space was small & could use some updating but overall the staff & atmosphere was relaxing. There was only one restroom & you had to wait to use it. We were a party of 6. Service--10/10 the staff was very professional, always smiling & very accommodating.

    The restaurant is pretty and that's why I wanted to come here and try. But I would not come back…read more We were the first customers of the night, got there at 6pm. We ordered the spring roll, chicken lollipop, pad Thai , fried rice and the rib eye steak. My family only enjoyed the appetizers. The rib eye steak was so chewy they could not eat it. They did not like any of the main entrees. When we finished eating , we were rushed out because there were people waiting outside. The restaurant wasn't even packed, where was only one huge party next to us and there were plenty of seats. Really unnecessary to ask us to leave. We took longer because I had a baby and we all took turns using the one bathroom they had. That was a huge turn off, this was the first time in my life that we were told to leave a restaurant that was not even at capacity. They couldn't even wait a few more minutes. It wasn't like we were sitting there like it was a cafe and we are just chitchatting. Overall it did not feel welcoming in there. The other staff did not seem friendly either.

    NYC's Most Beautiful Thai Food!…read more Back at one of my favorite Thai spots, where every dish is as stunning as it is delicious. From the beautiful presentation to the bold, authentic Thai flavors, every plate was thoughtfully crafted and packed with flavor. It's one of those meals that makes you pause before taking the first bite--and every dish delivered. Follow me @foodie.elite on IG, Tiktok and RedNote for more great finds.

    This was a restaurant I had saved, and since it was participating in Restaurant Week, my friend and…read moreI decided to try it out. The Restaurant Week menu wasn't particularly exciting, so we both ordered from the regular menu. I had the steamed sea bass with white rice, while my friend had the duck with white rice. Both were good. We also tried the appetizer platter. I really enjoyed the chive rice cakes, the crispy texture added another layer. The crab rolls were fine, but the Cho Muang's texture was a bit off to me. The drinks were also really good. I tried the lychee floral spritz and loved it! Unfortunately, the service is what kept this from being a five-star experience. My food came out first, but my friend's didn't arrive until about 15-20 minutes later. We also saw our server when she took our order and never saw her again. We wanted another drink but didn't have anyone to ask, so we had to rely on the hostess. I enjoyed the food and drinks, but good customer service is just as important to me. I wouldn't say I wouldn't return because I'd be willing to give it another shot, but I'd hope the service would be better next time.

    So, I've known about this place forever, but haven't been able to go…read more Finally make it during lunch and I loved it. Service: it's nice. They definitely didn't tell me that lunch specials were available before I ordered my soup. Other than that, everyone is pleasant. Space: they have two sides, so plenty of space, but nights and weekends can get pretty packed, so keep that in mind. Food: I ordered Tom Yum soup and a lunch drunken noodle with a Thai iced tea. I only had the soup there and took the entire lunch special to go. Just based off of the soup, I will be going back. It was delicious and PACKED to the MAX! Writing this now, I can still imagine. Drunken Noodles were also really tasty. I like mine spicy and it could have been made spicier, but that's not even a real complaint. Also- the one next to me had this dish which reminded me of pad see ew but in a gravy. Looked delicious!! I will be back for whatever she had. Overall: the entire block is like a little Thai street. There are lots of Thai food options and I finally made it to Ayada. Super happy with my meal and excited to go back with some people and enjoy.

    the wait was too long for saranrom thai AND hug esan :(…read more this place was rlly good though! the chive cakes were a sleeper hit: crispy on the outside and so chewy and soft on the inside almost mochi like probably best chive cakes i've had at a thai place. discovered i don't like raw crab would not recommend the salad very ocean flavored. crispy duck panang curry was yummy not the best duck i've had but very good and the curry sauce was delish. mango sticky rice a hit as always the rice was very warm and subtly sweet and the mango was decently fresh. i will say it's a bit expensive for the amount you get but otherwise yummy!
