    Pad See Ew Lunch Special
    Ye Z.

    Came here on a Thursday afternoon for a little lunch date with the husband! The restaurant is so cute and nicely designed. Food was pretty darn good and the waiter was nice! We started off with some shrimp rolls; 10/10 I got the Pad See Ew lunch special that came with two sides and I opted for the spring roll and soup; delicious 9/10 My husband got the Nuer Yang (steak) with jasmine rice; cooked perfectly 10/10 Ended the meal with some mango sticker rice; 8/10

    I am a very picky Thai food eater. Coming from the NW we were spoiled rotten. It has taken me many tries in NY to find my spots. And a couple years ago my boyfriend and I tried this place on a whim and it was amazing. We just really can't get enough. We are also lucky because there's two of us. So we get to try two entrees but get half of both. The perfect masterplan. This place is never busy for dine in. I see a lot of food delivery pick ups while we sit and enjoy our meal. The feel at the restaurant is calm, clean and attentive. The staff is always on point. We scan the QR code, but always know we will be ordering the Rose Rangoons, the pineapple fried rice with shrimp and the Massaman Curry with tofu. Every bite is always as delicious as one can remember it. My boyfriend can literally drink that curry sauce. I love the little peanuts in the curry. A little surprise. I took my sister here with her daughter on Sunday and they were blown away. My niece was headed back to college on Monday so I am so happy they had a great time. My niece loved the veggie curry puffs so much that we had to do another order. It made me so happy that they were happy and that we have this beautiful memory here. And now that the weather has gotten slightly chillier, we look forward to more meals soon.

    Pad See Ew with shrimp

    This is the second time I ordered takeout food from this place. It is delivered very quickly. I got the chive pancakes and the shrimp Tom Yum soup again. That was very good before and it's still good. this time I tried the fried chicken for an entrée. it was really dry. the rice that came with it was wrapped in cellophane/plastic wrap within the container. weird. when I unwrapped it, it stayed like a brick. I find this to be very strange. I believe this costs $16 for the chicken. Totally NOT worth it.

    Thai Iced Tea

    The food was great, but I was impressed by their presentation. The decorations of the restaurant were rustic and cute. Dish wear and glass wear were very charming. The ambiance was relaxed. It is a small restaurant, and there are not many tables, but the pieces of furniture are stylish and cute. I loved these details. We liked the food, and the service was very attentive. The restaurant seems busy with takeout and delivery, but not many eat-in customers. We initially thought about ordering for delivery, but we decided to take a visit. If we did take out, we would have missed their presentation of the food, which was charming. I am glad that we visited and had a dine-in experience. The price was very reasonable. There is no alcohol served which is a downside but not a big deal. We would love to come back and try different dishes in the future.

    This is what I love about New York. We went to a brand new Thai restaurant in Ridgewood (of all places) knowing that there are like three other Thai places close by. This place is pretty empty with just one other party. Just one waitress. Pretty small operation. Expectations were not super high or anything, but it turns out that the food here is phenomenal. I can see this place getting popular very quickly. The Pad See Ew was silky smooth.. some of the best I've had. Everything was delicious. My favorite was the Crispy Three Flavors Fish. So crispy, juicy, and oh so flavorful. If you like spicy foods, the mild will be perfect. Thai food can get overly spicy.. even the medium spicy is a lot. All in all, the food here is exceptional. Can't wait to come back.

    Curry Puffs and Thai Iced Tea
    Mari T.

    I ordered the vegetarian curry puffs, Thai ice tea and shrimp pad Thai and also tried the coconut soup which was delicious. The place was kind of cold, but they put heating lamps at each table. It was empty when I went on a Saturday at 5 PM so the service was pretty good, but there were moments where no one came out since we were the only people there.

    Chicken Pad Thai beef Pad See Ew
    Sweenly L.

    Really really tasty! I came on a rainy day with my boyfriend and found the whole place empty. No one was even at the register when we walked in. The lady was in the back helping with seemingly many delivery orders. We seated ourselves and checked out their menu. We saw some unique options but stuck to the classics for our first time here. Food: We ordered chicken pad thai, beef pad see euw, and mango salad. The pad thai is very similar to how we had it in Phuket - it's more saucy, more brown than the drier red/orange colored version that some places serve. The beef pad see euw was amazing. It was certainly our favorite dish of the two. The pad see euw is very saucy, sweet and smoky flavor. I absolutely loved the juicy rice noodles which were cooked so well. The proteins were slightly dry but the noodles more than made up for it. (Order this if you like beef)! The mango salad was different and refreshing. It was pieces of mango, red onion, tomatoes, little bit o' lettuce sprinkled with pepper flakes. I think it is a great way to lighten to palette when eating the heavier/saucier noodle dishes. My boyfriend thought the dishes were well portioned and he rarely thinks that lol The restaurant is a casual/cozy local feel. Definitely will be back :)

    Lychee Ice Tea
    Erika P.

    Ordered here through Uber eats for a quick work lunch. I got the ginger sauce dish w/ fried tofu + white rice and the lychee iced tea. Honestly, I love lychee drinks but this one was not good. It didn't taste like lychee at all and left a bad aftertaste in my mouth. The ginger sauce dish came with onions, peppers, mushrooms, & corn plus my added tofu. Overall, it was a good meal with a flavorful sauce and a nice sized portion. If you are looking for a quick takeout meal this spot will do the trick, otherwise I would pass on it.

    Hat Yai Fried Chicken
    Angelique A.

    We happened to be nearby and stopped by for dinner, and it was the so good! The mango salad with mint in chefs kiss. The fried chicken was perfectly crispy but also not at all greasy, served with sticky rice. We also got Tom yum soup, and basil fried rice which was also top notch. Unlike a "just takeout" spot this place has great decor and vibe, and also a great playlist. The portions were perfect and the hostess was so on point. Food came care minutes after we ordered, great service - give this neighborhood spot a try!

I ordered the same one - unknowingly - both times I have been here!) - We shared the Wagyu dumplings and the Shrimp shumai and they were honestly SOOOO GOOD. Finger-licking good!! - We also shared then chicken lo mein - also delicious and a big portion (there were some leftovers) - The staff is always kind and very friendly.

First, the owners are some of the kindest, most thoughtful hosts you could hope to meet. You can feel how much they care about their community the moment you walk in. They've also made real efforts to make the space accessible for different bodies, which is something that far too few restaurants consider. That level of intention and hospitality truly stands out. And then there's the food -- absolutely phenomenal. Every dish feels intentional, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Standouts for me: Shrimp Toast - the best I've ever had. Perfectly crisp, rich, and balanced. Duck - deeply flavorful and cooked to perfection. Ribs - tender, savory, and incredibly satisfying. Char Siu - sweet, smoky, and melt-in-your-mouth good. Eggplant - unbelievably delicious and a must-order. Monkey King is the kind of place you leave already planning your next visit.

Thanks to fellow Yelp Elites Chun and Jeannie for organizing this group dinner so we could return to Driftwood! There were 8 of us dining tonight; sharing many dishes.

Our Feast Tonight (14 Snacks/Entrees & 3 Desserts): -- Milk Bread $10 -- Endive Salad $13 -- Mala Tots $10 -- Salmon Seaweed Crisps $16 -- Golden Crab Bao 2/$17 -- Charcoal seared scallops $17 -- Stir-Fry Peashoots $13 -- Chicken Mochi Waffles $15 -- Rice Noodle Rolls $18 -- BLT Fried Rice $22 -- Roasted Bone Marrow w.Toast $18 -- Pork Belly Wraps $18 -- Pork Ribs w.Sweet Potatoes $16 -- Fresno Gouda Cornbread $9 Desserts: -- Persimmon Cake Roll $11 -- Asian Pear Sorbet $12 -- Milk Tea Pudding (Earl Grey) $8. The 2 menu items we DIDN'T order (only because it was just too much food for us): -- Driftwood Burger $20 -- Driftwood Seafood Boil $48 (although we didn't order the Boil this time, I had it in the past and this seafood boil was delicious!). Each dish was better than the next. I've gone to my fair share of group dining events but these dishes were on another level. Fresh ingredients, innovative food combinations & flavors, each dish completely different from the next. I was going to list all my fave dishes but I realized that every dish would fit into that category! You can't go wrong with whatever you decide to order. Do yourself a favor: grab some friends, and try all their dishes like we did! This was a phenomenal shared meal experience! Even though we were completely FULL after our 14 Snacks/Entrees, we HAD TO also order all 3 of their desserts (shared by 8). A perfect way to end this fabulous meal! Note that their liquor license is coming soon but in the meantime, try one of their unique, refreshing mocktails! They also have a bunch of games at the bar, which you can bring to your table to play while waiting for your food. Parking: plenty of free street parking is available. There is also plenty of metered parking; free after 7pm. Big thanks to Owner Mimi and Chef for their hospitality and fine foods. We had such a great time! See you again soon!
