Original tea leaf salad and coconut chicken noodle soup were both incredible. The salad was a little pricey (I think like $21 for the small?) but worth it. Also note there is no restroom.

We came to Little Myanmar today (08/30), and unfortunately, the experience was extremely…read moredisappointing. There are already very limited options for Burmese food in the city, so we traveled over 45 minutes specifically to try this place. Only after arriving did we find out that they are cash only, something that was not clearly advertised online. We explained that we had traveled 45+ minutes to get there and asked if there was any alternative way to pay. We offered Zelle, Venmo, or even placing the order through DoorDash and simply eating the food there. Every option was declined. I also explained that I didn't have a debit card with me, but there was absolutely no willingness to work with us or offer any alternative. Being cash-only is one thing. Failing to clearly communicate that beforehand and then showing zero flexibility when customers have traveled a significant distance is another. Very disappointing customer experience. I genuinely don't understand how a business can operate this way and expect customers to return. We certainly won't be coming back.

RIP Urban Hawker…read more Though if you wanted to recreate that part in movie plots where the protagonist we all thought had veered into untimely demise surprises everyone by miraculously making a comeback--I'm down for that too! Though on a serious note--kinda bummed bc I wanted to make one last visit before they closed July 17, though unfortunately I didn't make it back to town in time :( What a loss of a cultural connection point for the city! Food is a gateway to experiencing and understanding other cultures and this location was front and center in midtown, blocks from Times Square. In a sea of other cuisines, this part of Southeast Asia didn't/doesn't have much representation in general in Manhattan, and even less so now. Scouring articles and comments online I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they're able to find a different space in the near future! Was it the best food court? I'll admit this was easily debatable for many reasons. But each stall had their own standouts. Tradsiyon was a later addition though had really solid braised meat and veggie bowls; Hainan Jones stepped into a midtown scene several years ago with no other similar Hainanese chicken spots in midtown (a few others thankfully are around today); Kopifellas brought uniquely Singaporean/Malasian tea and coffee options; I still remember the first bite of Prawnaholic's signature shrimp and rib noodles tasting that savory goodness for the first time; and most of all I will dearly miss this location of Lady Wong, where I rarely walked away empty handed. Thank you for the memories (and think about that movie plot twist I mentioned above)!

I think I grieved more for Urban Hawker closing than when my dad died…read more Urban Hawker wasn't successful in the way you'd expect any food hall to be successful-- their food wasn't spectacular. I rarely went home invoking a strong enthusiastic response to come back to eat something again. Their strong suite was location, space, and variety. What I loved most--besides having a reliable bathroom in Midtown--was what it became for the people around it. It was a place where office workers could decompress after work, grab a beer with coworkers, or catch up with friends they hadn't seen in a while. There was something refreshing about the atmosphere. People seemed relaxed and unguarded, shedding the polished professional persona they'd worn all day. It felt like watching the city exhale for a little while. And another thing I appreciated was their attempt to represent different nationalities under one roof. The more common items performed the worse and that's probably when you come to a space dedicated to hawker style cuisine, you expect to try some of their more novel stuff like Coffee Pork Fried Rice (from a stall that specialized in fried rice) or Noodles in Bechamel. I also frequently enjoyed their only drinks provider for the best Yuen Yang I've ever had. The method for making them seems theatrical at first but when you've had one that wasn't properly aerated, you truly taste the chalky bitter tannins. It was a good thing there was an experience worker there (possibly the owner). Who you got to make your drink was hit or miss because at varying times, my gf would be lucky enough to run into the one guy who could do it with oatmilk (she's lactose intolerant). It's sad to see this place go and there'll be many times ahead of us where we point out that that's where the Urban Hawker used to be.

Let's start by saying... 10/10 would absolutely recommend Kam Rai Thai!! The restaurant is small…read morebut spacious enough. The vibe was on point, especially for date night.

Can't wait to go back!

Came here with my kids prior to a concert because my daughter had a craving for Thai and this was…read morewell recommended on Yelp. The decor is quaint & cozy. Def a date night vibe. We ordered the roti & massaman curry, summer rolls, Beef Pad See Ew & Shrimp Pad Thai. The pad thai was too sweet, like they went overboard with the palm sugar. The Pad See Ew was the highlight of the meal, nearly perfect. The summer rolls were also great, and the massaman curry had great flavor, however the curry was very thin and didnt hold onto the roti very well and for $12 i expected more than 8 small triangles of roti. We still had a full cup of curry left when the roti was gone. The real problem I had was when it came time to pay the check. I was asked "cash or card" and i said card and the waiter brought over a sign from another table with a 5% cash discount and a 2.95% credit card surcharge. None of this information was disclosed by the server or on the menu, so it's illegal. When I called them out on their bullshit, they played dumb. I left cash for the amount of the bill and not a penny more. Here's your tip : don't try and fuck your customers with hidden fees and be transparent about your pricing.

The Service | Average. 20% automatic gratuity (for our party of five; not sure if that is standard for all). There were a lot of people bringing plates, removing plates, and at the front of the house. The Food | Por Pia Tod (3/5) was average, nothing special. Pad Se-Ew (4/5) was good and flavorful. We ordered two with shrimp and one chicken: the shrimp was a little overcooked but super flavorful. If it had something with a crunch - peanuts or otherwise - it would have been 5/5 for me. Thai Fried Rice (3/5) was just ok. Chilean Sea Bass (5/5) was cooked to perfection and it was the best tasting dish on the table, and it was the most beautiful dish. The Dranks | The Mango Sunrise was outstanding. Thai Villa...please share the recipe or please confirm what I think the ingredients are: mango puree, pineapple juice, and coconut cream.

And the noodles were very chewy and springy. Spicy too. LOVED. -Panang curry- I don't even care for curry but this was really the best curry I've had. The perfect glossy consistency and the flavors were balanced, also spicy. -Summer special: soft shell crab. Incredible. Deep fried crab legs served on a bed of thai basil salad- eating whole basil leaves with the shattering crab legs... don't miss this one. -Basil fried rice, so spicy, so good. -Tom Yum, my uncle said it was one of the best hems ever had. -Papaya Salad- a great refreshing side and also incredibly spicy. Forgettable dishes: -Chicken satay, very small. Standard. -Thai moneybags, beautiful presentation but the filling tastes like potatoes, are they usually potatoes? Tastes like a bland samosa. -Red curry: just wasn't a huge fan of it. -Roti: I didn't get to try it, so I will forget about it. They're really pushy about the 90 minute time limit. I think they should think about how much we ordered and be more lenient but they weren't so lenient. I still really loved my experience and would go again.

We started with the curry puffs and satay buns, both of which were easy wins. No complaints, I would happily order them again. The Khao Soi was the highlight of my meal. Rich, comforting, and packed with flavor. I love when restaurants get this right. They also do super thin noodles in the khao soi which is a plus for me. I also tried a little bit of the crab fried rice which was also incredible. I also ordered the lychee mocktail. The drink itself was fairly average, but it came with a lychee mochi that completely stole the show. I honestly enjoyed the mochi more than the drink itself. Overall, this is just good, no-nonsense Thai food. Nothing feels overly gimmicky. The restaurant focuses on solid flavors, a beautiful space, and warm hospitality. I'd happily come back to work my way through more of the menu.
