I enjoyed my meal tremendously. The staff was informative and patient as I and my family had a lot of questions. The appetizers were delectable and the food was incredibly. Everything was fresh, the rice was fluffy, and the happy hour ends at 7?! On top of that the bill came and for the amount of food we ate, it didn't even reach $200. Wonderful read more

As a longtime vegan and someone who absolutely loves Thai food, I can honestly say this is one of the 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. read more

On a very busy street in a busy city, Chu Ros Thai stands out as a place of peace and deliciousness. When I saw the restaurant sign encircled with vines and flowers and the lanterns and plants adorning the ceiling, I knew that I was going to like this place before I tasted the food. The food did not disappoint. We had the chicken curry puffs, vegetable dumplings, tom kha soup, pineapple fried rice with chicken, and the massaman curry with salmon. We loved our meal. My hubby had a Thai iced tea and I had a lychee iced tea which also tasted very good. The service was great. We definitely recommend and we look forward to coming again. Please note: this restaurant is small so you may not find a seat, but it is worth the wait. read more

My friend and I came here for a late lunch. I fell in love with the beautiful decor, as well as the warm and cozy ambiance. On the wall, there is lit up green script, featuring the words: Dinner is better when we eat together! There was lush greenery, blooming flower lights, white flowers and elegant drapery overhead. I had the Thai Iced Coffee, which was smooth, creamy, and strong. For my entree, I ordered the Crispy Duck with flat noodles. The Duck skin was satisfyingly crispy, well seasoned, while the meat was tender and juicy. Flat noodles were perfectly cooked, packing plenty of flavor. Service was lovely. Our waiter was welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu. I would return to try the Pork Chops with coconut sticky rice. read more

First Impressions: not applicable, I ordered delivery The Noms: Coconut Sticky Rice - I ordered this assuming it would be like the sticky rice that accompanies mango sticky rice... but it was sooo dry. I don't know if they forgot the coconut sauce that usually comes with it... but do not order, get the mango sticky rice (I would have done this but it's not in season and not available in January) or the lychee sticky rice Coconut pudding - delicious... sweet but not too sweet, creamy and deeply coconut. 10/10 would order again Drunken Noodles: forgot to take a picture because I was so hungry I scarfed it down... very good, not as greasy as some other Thai places. Perfect amount of spice level and the chicken was generous. The portions were huge and I had enough left over for dinner later In Conclusion: 10/10 would recommend and likely will order again. If I had ordered the coconut sticky rice in house, I would have asked for a side of the coconut sauce... that would have made it perfect... or at least not as dry. That's why I still give it 5 stars... I'm going to assume they forgot the sauce and try it again read more

Great spot for lunch with excellent specials and solid service. I had the pad see ew with beef, which was flavorful and perfectly cooked, paired with their Thai salad topped with a delicious, creamy peanut sauce. Their chicken noodle soup is flavorful, aromatic and soothing. To finish, the lychee coconut sticky rice was outstanding and the perfect sweet ending. Overall, a great place with good food, fair prices, and friendly service. read more

Three or four stars. The lunch special is decent. I got pad thai with chicken and Thai salad for $13.95. The pad thai portion is on the smaller side. The salad was standard. There is a lot of sauce on the pad thai. I actually wished they put less sauce, so the dish wouldn't be so heavy. I think this dish was a 3 star. The soft shell crab, not on the lunch special, was delicious. It had real crab mixed in with the curry and egg sauce. It definitely has a good kick to it as well. We opted to pay the extra $2 for coconut rice and it was totally worth it. It was a nice contrast between sweet rice and spicy crab. This was definitely a 4 or 5 star dish. Again the dish was very rich. Personally I think sharing this and one more item with another person is the way to go. There is not much seating but usually there is no wait. read more

Aesthetic and cozy Thai place! Their cocktails look fun and beautiful. They have zodiac based drinks AND happy hour is all day? Sign me up. I was ordering take out so in the meantime, this is my experience: Food: It was 2 pm so we went with the lunch special that comes with a main and an appetizer ($14!!). I ordered the basil fried rice with chicken (medium spice, which was perfection of a good kick) + spring roll. My husband had the pad see ew with beef + gyoza. He said the beef had a nice charred taste, which was a big plus. It was the just right portion for me, a bit smaller for him. Ambiance: While not big, they do have about 9 tables and 2-3 outdoor tables, which are great for a nice day out. Service: Kind staff, we ordered right away. Food took about 20 minutes. All in all, I'm definitely coming back to dine in and try their cocktails and desserts. read more

Loved everything about this place! Our server, food and the ambiance! Came in and sat immediately. It feels like a little hiding fun spot for foodies like us! Saw some drinks off the menu that we saw in tiktok and the server said they can do it. The food was amazing, feels very similar to the ones we had when we went to Thailand years ago! The appetizer is great when you want to try everything, a little of everything basically. We each had entree and shared! Their crab meat pad thai is to die for! They gave a lot of meat and did not limit us to tiny pieces! (Crab meat is expensive!) and came our dessert! We gad two I forgot the other one but we ordered Mango sticky rice to try and it didn't disappoint! This place has a lot of potential and serves great authentic Thai Food! Will definitely be back! read more

If you're craving incredible Thai food, you need to check out Churo Thai on the UES. It's a cozy spot with a huge selection of fresh, delicious dishes -- everything we tried was packed with flavor!

Came here for a weekday lunch before class with a classmate. The spot is super cute and the exterior is bright colorful and lively. Service was quick. We ordered crab Rangoon, vegan curry puff to start. These came out quickly and were piping hot. The crab Rangoons were my favorite and I appreciated the price point. For my main I had the Pad Kee Mao with chicken. Portion was well sized and I took nearly half of it to go. The spice level was perfect for me. I like the convenient location and will definitely be back to try some of the crab dishes mentioned by other Yelpers. read more

This Saturday i spent looking for brunch after a tragic ending of not being allowed to dine at a restaurant nearby... After a quick yelp search, and a rec my friend said she'd been here and the food was good. It wasn't too far from my original location. So we made the quick drive to this place. The restaurant was super cute. Very cozy inside. Had lots of Instagram/tik tok aesthetics. Cute flower wall, and flowers hanging from the ceiling. LED signs of cute phrases that all the girls love lol. They also have an indoor/outdoor vibe when the main window fully opens and disappears. It was perfect for the beautiful weather we had last weekend. The food was okay. I've never had udon noodles as the base for my drunken noodles, but it wasn't the worst. I do feel like the other noodles catches and holds the sauce a bit better, but all in all it wasn't bad. I ordered it with crispy chicken because they didn't have a pork option. The lemon drop martinis were on happy hour special for $10. I wanted a specialty tequila so with my Casamigos lemon drop it was $14. Not bad, it was strong too. The service could've been better. I feel like they were really understaffed. They had 1 bartender for 10 tables, and all the tables were filled. He was also taking orders for food also. Towards the end of our meal, we saw another person finally come out and help a bit. But by that time we were ready to go. So I'm giving the service a 3. He did pretty well to be working alone. That's all for now. See pics below. read more

Enjoy crab? Their softshell crab mango salad is on point. Next up, their crab fried rice is a perfect blend of umami and textures that remind you of the home-cooked meal you never had but always wanted. The service is great and the decorations are cute with all the overgrown fake greenery and flowers. They have happy hour all day, 11 am-10 pm and lots of non alcoholic options too. The only thing to watch out for are the prices. Quality seafood sure isn't cheap! read more

The food here is decent. Customer service can be improved tremendously. I ordered egg plant garbed and drunken noodle. It was the spiciest ever. It didn't indicate that these dishes come Spicy and when I questioned the spice, host/server said yes it comes two levels spice. Not once while ordering was I asked what level of spice I wanted. There was no attempt to rectify or correct the matter. I couldn't even eat the food and ended up throwing it away $46 dollars gone to waste. In addition to this the restaurant has a B grade. I ignored the baby roach I saw crawling on the brown chair that sits facing outward to the window when you sit and wait for your dine out/to go food (cause I figured most restaurants have a lil something something crawling around. It's a food place), considering everything, I will not eat here again. read more

I recommend you check out this cozy Thai spot tucked in the heart of East Harlem. Perfect for a chill hang with friends. The vibe was cill, the service was fast, and everyone working there was friendly at the same time working quick. The indoor-outdoor setup was a great touch, especially since the weather was clear and beautiful that day. The restaurant sits up on a bit of a hill, so while you are dining, you still get that lively NYC street energy people passing by, cars rolling though, without it being overwhelming. Drinks were on point, and the food came out fresh and flavorful without a long wait. One of the servers even picked a dish for me, and it turned out to be delicious. Highlights were definitely the veggie curry puffs and drunken noodle. We all enjoyed our meals. If in area again, Im sure well be back. read more

There's something about East Harlem and Thai food, it seems. This is another one of a great Thai restaurant in the area, albeit with a much more "full" menu. Excellent spring rolls, chicken wings, shrimp mango salad with jasmine rise, Thai fried rice, pork Tom yum noodle soup, tally jua prik gula, pad see ew (beef). I really had no issue with any dish from here so far. It's a small restaurant, but with a colorful and instagrammable vibe, and a counter for take-outs which seems to be a popular choice here.

How have I never reviewed chu ros Thai?! It's my favorite Thai spot in the neighborhood. Actually it's my favorite Thai spot within 3 square miles! The pad see ew and other wok seared noodles have that real "wok hei" char/ delicious umami smokiness and the cocktails are delicious and not too sweet at all, which is the second biggest thing for me. The biggest thing is that the employees here are really and truly kind. They welcome me and my dog as if we are old childhood friends! The restaurant is very cute and I would absolutely go on a date here if I had any chance at any romance ever in my life lolol. The happy hour specials are also an amazing deal.
