As a longtime vegan and someone who absolutely loves Thai food, I can honestly say this is one of…read morethe best Thai restaurants I've ever been to--not just in East Harlem, but anywhere in New York City. Every dish I've had here has been outstanding. The vegetables are always incredibly fresh, the flavors are vibrant and authentic, and it's clear that a lot of care goes into every plate that leaves the kitchen. Finding a restaurant that consistently delivers this level of quality is rare, and Chu Ros Thai does it every single time. The staff is warm, welcoming, and genuinely kind, which makes the entire experience even better. You never feel rushed, and they always make you feel like they're happy you're there. And if you're vegan, do yourself a favor and order the Thai iced tea made with coconut milk. It's one of my favorite drinks in the entire city and the perfect complement to an already amazing meal. I've eaten Thai food all over New York, and Chu Ros Thai has earned a permanent spot at the top of my list. I come here whenever I can, and whenever someone asks me where they should eat in East Harlem, this is the first place I recommend. A true neighborhood gem.

HeyTea isn't just a boba shop--it's an institution in the Asian beverage scene, and for very good…read morereason. Known for taking tea seriously (and fruit even more so), this place consistently serves up drinks that taste like someone actually cared about flavor balance, texture, and that oh-so-critical sweetness level. I ordered the Green Grape Boom, which felt less like a drink and more like a love letter to summer. It came packed with real green grape chunks--actual fruit, not just essence or artificial vibes--and blended into a slush that never turned into that dreaded flavorless ice mound. The sweetness was subtle and refreshing, a major plus in the Asian community, where "not too sweet" is one of the highest compliments a drink can earn. Like many great things in New York, there's a wait. But that's only because HeyTea still has people coming back again and again, and you won't find anyone here mad about it. They're sipping happily, knowing it's worth the time. A fun bonus? HeyTea is currently on the Claim app, which means free boba is up for grabs if you sign up. Yes, you read that right--free. Boba. We live in a beautiful world. In short: HeyTea continues to set the standard for fruit-forward, tea-rich drinks that feel thoughtful, not sugary. From slush to pearls, it's crafted with care--and a green grape dream that's hard to beat.

The interior seating by the window was a nice spot for me and my friend to sit down, chat, and enjoy our dirty sodas. Definitely will come visit again when I'm back in the Upper East Side!

The base price is $11 and only $3 each to add an appetizer and drink. The interior is casual with some seating and tables. I ordered the Shrimp Drunken Noodles, along with Crab Rangoon and Thai Coffee bubble tea. The Thai Coffee was strong, creamy, smooth, and sweet. Boba was not of high quality and didn't have that satisfying chewiness. Crab Rangoon was filled with a cream cheese crab concoction, which was rich and true crab taste. The Drunken Noodles were made with sautéed flat rice noodles, mixed with fresh basil, onions, carrots, bamboo and bell peppers in a chili soy sauce. The noodles were perfectly cooked, while the veggies were fresh and crunchy. There were actually plenty of shrimp (for once) and they were succulent, as well as juicy. The ingredients blended together beautifully coated in the delightfully well seasoned, savory sauce, which had a slight kick to it. I've also tried the Sweet Sausage Fried Rice, which was quite tasty. I loved the Sweet Sausage, which reminded me of Chinese Sausage. It was made expertly, and was tender and full of flavor. Service was efficient. Next time, I would like to try some of the bubble tea options, such as the Thai Soy Milk with Basil Seed / Red Bean / Thai Tapioca, Coconut Dragon Fruit, and Brown Sugar Milky Coffee. In terms of food, I would return to get the Pad Thai Crab Meat and a dish with Crispy Pork.

A Thai Delight in NYC: Thai Peppercorn:…read more If you're in NYC and craving some truly authentic and delicious Thai food, you absolutely have to check out Thai Peppercorn. I was in the mood for some serious comfort food, and it had been way too long since I had a good Pad See Ew. Let me tell you, this place got it done perfectly. The moment the plate was set down, it was piping hot and smelled absolutely divine--deliciously aromatic is an understatement! The noodles were cooked to perfection, not too soft and not too chewy, with that perfect charred flavor. And the chicken? It was fantastic--soft, flavorful, and you could tell it was real chicken, which, believe me, is not always the case these days. Every single bite was exactly what I wanted it to be. The flavor was spot-on, and the portion was the perfect amount to leave me completely satisfied. Thank you, Thai Peppercorn, for making my food just as I had hoped for. I will definitely be back!

We got a Coconut Mango bloom and a Matcha Cloud - I do like the option of customizing ice and sugar levels - but I think there's no option to use a milk alternative for the milk based drinks. Both drinks were good - I personally preferred the coconut mango one. There's barely any space inside to wait - maybe that's why, online order and picking up is popular.
