    Came here for dinner and ordered duck curry, pomelo salad, Pla Lui Suan fish and other dishes. Thinking about it the pomelo salad was not necessary because the Pla Lui Suan fish already had salad. The extra salad was redundant. The fish was crispy, great, and amazingly made. It was the best dish of the night. The duck curry was on the other hand disappointing. Felt like it wasnt fresh and it was saggy and didn't taste great. It had pro and cons at that night. I'd rate it average. Perhaps I will give it second chance in the future and come back again in the future...

    Chicken Satay
    Anushka M.

    Cute spot! Inside is small with a bar and a few tables. We were a party of 5 and started with the chicken satay for an app. There were a lot of good looking menu items here but I went with my usual pad see ew with chicken and medium spicy. It was solid and the spice level was perfect. I also got a thai iced tea which was perfectly sweet for me. Service was good and we were checked in regularly. Definitely a solid thai spot.

    We had a solid meal here and the portions are fair for the price point, and the atmosphere in Brooklyn is lovely. Kee Mao Short Rib (4.75/5): Our absolute favorite. The meat was incredibly tender and literally fell off the bone. It could have used a punch more of seasoning, but the texture was perfect. Thai Ice Tea (4.75/5): Perfectly balanced, creamy and delicious without being overly sweet Beef Shank Massaman (4/5): Solid choice; the beef was well-cooked and the curry was flavorful. Pad See Ew Chicken (4/5): Good, though it leaned a bit sweeter than the traditional savory profile. Gai Tod Wings & Pad Thai (3.75/5): The wings were okay but felt slightly overcooked. The Pad Thai was also on the sweeter side, though my friend really enjoyed it. Pla Neung Manow (3.75/5): Usually my favorite, but this version was a bit overcooked and the broth was blander than expected Thai Dumplings (2.75/5): Be warned if you aren't a fan of cilantro! The flavor was overpowering and unexpected

    Everything was super delicious. Some of the better thai food i've had in NYC. definitely on the pricier side with small portions but a nice treat.

    Order with bestie Ying

    Amazing food, delicious , great service, I would love to try everything on the menu .........

    Favorite dishes: -The citrus salad embodies the way Thai flavor components meld: sweet, umami, a little heat, salty. Most memorable appetizers -Pad Thai-I mean, everyone loves a Pad Thai so get over the guilt of being that person who orders a Pad Thai and just get it. -Duck curry: that curry was good and creamy over rice. Kept going back for it. -Their happy hour deal on wine and beer. The fish had a LOT of mango on top of it. I appreciate the drama. And I do wish there was less digging through the mango to get to the fish meat.

    Duck curry, pad Thai, crab fried rice

    Overall a delicious Thai place good for date nights or small hangs. I've been here a couple times, for weekday dinner. Once for a table of 2 and once for a table of 5, and I've never had to wait for a table (though the whole party must be present to be seated). My favorites have been the duck curry and pad Thai. The fried branzino is also good and I really like the mangoes and sauce, it just wasn't as big as I was expecting. The tom yum hot pot had a good amount of seafood in it, and the crab fried rice is solid. The portions are decent, but both times I've wished there was more food. The main dishes come with rice though which is nice! They have a pretty good happy hour deal: $5 for beers, $7 for wine, and $11 for cocktail (limited options). There is one restroom. Service is great.

    Chicken Pad Thai
    Amanda H.

    So far I've only been here for lunch and loved my meal. The prices were reasonable for the lunch special and it came with plenty of food. I absolutely loved my chicken pad Thai and Thai ice tea. My friend enjoyed the garlic chicken with rice as well. Lovely presentation and vibes. Service was great. I can't wait to try dinner here.

    Kra Pow Nuer
    Vincent X.

    Booked a Saturday night reservation for 2 people. I don't recall if there were many open tables, but I booked the reservation about 4 hours before our eating time. We were seated at the back after waiting for a few seconds. Atmosphere: 4.5/5 The back of the restaurant has stronger ventilation, so wear a sweater if you are susceptible to lower temperatures. The bathroom is even colder, but relatively clean (barring the customer that left a mess of the toilet). The hand dryer was above the trash can, so make sure the hand dryer isn't being used while the trash is open. Service: 5/5 The service was immaculate. We were given an adequate time to select our drinks then food. Our water was poured and refilled regularly. The staff asked us about our food and status regularly. Our waitress kindly lent a hand when my friend and I were rearranging plates. Food: 3.5/5 Personally, I was slightly disappointed with our dishes. The Thai Ice Tea was pretty creamy. Our Chicken Satay was alright and the accompanied cucumber salad was refreshing, but the peanut butter sauce kept falling off. The Broccolini was a decent fiber dish, so I suggest ordering at least 2 plates for larger parties. My friend was satisfied with the Kra Pow Nuer because of its generous amount of meat and tasty onions. I got the monstrous Kee Mao Short Rib. The meat was lavishly tender, juicy, and fatty, but the star of the dish was the ramen noodles. I didn't taste any seasoning on the short rib itself, so it was essentially just a lot of meat on a stick. I'm the type of person who likes sauces with their steak, so it wasn't my ideal type of meat forward dish. The ramen noodles gave bites of sweetness and saltiness, and the snip of peppercorn was a pleasant palette cleanser. The Thai basil on both plates also added a great crunchy texture. Multiple staff members gave their thanks as we exited the restaurant. I would recommend this place to family and friends because of the lovely establishment and staff. and I would try different dishes for my future visit.

    nice restaurant in the area with plenty of seating. squid appetizer was great but the curry puff was slightly disappointing (dry and didn't come with a sauce). pad Thai was delicious and the duck curry was extremely flavorful and tender. would come back

    Happy hour menu
    Jina P.

    I've been to Glin Thai Bistro a few times and it never misses. First off, the ambience is beautiful and cozy. The only downside is some of the tables are quite close together. The service is fast and friendly, and I love how they have a happy hour. In terms of the food, I've gotten their duck curry, pad thai, and pad se-ew. I usually don't eat duck or thai curry but I absolutely loved the flavor. I wasn't even that hungry but I could not stop eating given how delicious everything was. It is probably one of the best Thai places I've been to and highly underrated at that.

    Edith D.

    I've always loved the full flavor, richness and beautiful presentation that Thai cuisine offers. Glin Thai is a great option - we had brought the family together for a celebration of completed projects- of course Thai tea is a hands down hit every time. Appetizers were the chicken wings with amazing pickled pears/ a perfect salty sweet crunch to cleanse the palate. And the dumplings- a joyful comfort. We enjoyed the duck curry, the pad Thai with prawns and the beef shank. Some of the dishes were a bit on the dry side- slightly overcooked- but we nevertheless enjoyed ourselves and our meal together. They have vegetarian options for those who are avoiding meat based dishes. Service was efficient.

    The Glin had delicious food. I really enjoyed my mail. The food was fresh. My husband ordered a salmon and had a nice crisp layer on top but not burnt. They did that thing they know how to cook. I'm gonna say everybody must try the lemon drop passionfruit shot. It's amazing. The only doubtful is that they didn't don't have a bigger cup. I think that's why I gave them four stars cause he was looking at me crazy like a bigger cup no it only comes in shot size so I was like OK. Food is a little pricey, but it's worth it. The ambience of the places is beautiful is clean is very, very classy. The surface was nice. I just felt like there was a little language barrier. I could be wrong it could've been me, but I was asking for things in certain questions and I felt like she she didn't understand me so I just left it as that ordered my food and ate

Our group of 4 started with a bottle of Pinot Grigio and a few appetizers to share, namely: Som tum papaya salad and dumplings curry. For the main entree, my eyes caught the attention of clay pot mix-fried rice with shrimp, chicken, sweet sausage, and my partner chose shrimp pad thai. Nothing really stood out with the dishes; I found it to be a bit Americanized, having eaten in so many Thai restaurants around New York City. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner here; our food came in timely fashion, and the customer service is good as well, but it's probably not your place if you are seeking a more authentic Thai-style cooking.

PLEASE get the mango stick rice cocktail omg it was gone in like 5 sips because it was so good. The tuna ceviche was so refreshing and the sauce had a little kick to it which I absolutely loved! It was like a sprinkle of Thai on a classic tuna ceviche. Note the taro chips are a little thicker than a typical chip! The pork jowl wasn't as crispy as I expected but it was still flavorful and the portion size was huge, considering how it was an appetizer. We got pineapple lychee crispy duck, crab fried rice, and kana crispy pork over rice as our entree. ALL WERE SO GOOD! The curry for the pineapple lychee crispy duck was so creamy and flavorful, with the duck portion being huge and being the perfect texture. I loved that it was crispy and didn't get soggy fast in the curry. The crab fried rice was top tier as there were SO MANY HUGE CRAB PIECES!! You can definitely tell that it had flavors of seafood/crab.. they did not skimp out! And the kana crispy pork over rice was huge portion as well, but note that it was a big strong/saltier than the other dishes. For dessert, the pandan coconut pudding custard was SO yummy. It was warm and so flavorful and creamy!! I fell in love with Brooklyn even more after coming here. Highly recommend!!

I feel differently about Hungry Thirsty. At this point I've been to countless Thai restaurants, and for the most part they've all been fantastic. Compared to all those fantastic meals the flavors here still stand out and I'm excited to read that they're expanding with additional locations. They have a phenomenal and lengthy beer selection, which is fun because it complements the spicy fried dishes quite well. The fried branzino and shrimp and squid in salted duck yolk were very tasty with white rice but the dish that lit up my taste buds was the Kai Jeow Pu- colossal crab omelette. The egg was deep fried in an aromatic oil and filled with fresh, large pieces of crab and served with a phenomenal zesty sauce. The place is tiny and no frills, and our server chafed at my partner for pronouncing a beer on their menu incorrectly, which just added to the experience. I loved it here!

Server was friendly but stern and told him he was ordering too many of the spicy dishes - I think he would've been fine though (and we intended to bring home leftovers anyway) so that was a little annoying.

Didn't get seated until 30 mins after reservation time (as did the couple ahead of us from what I saw) so prepare for that.

Wait staff was attentive to dietary needs, exemptions and ensured our request was followed to a T. Ordered some Khao Kriab Pak Mor (dumplings) to start along with a pair of mocktails. And an order of Khao Na Ped (smoked vegan duck) and Ginger Chicken (vegan). All served well with good portion. What I personally liked is the 2 dishes took a bit, not slow or long but IMHO taking a little bit always seems it was cared for in prep. Who knows just my thing. The staff has a challenge to accommodate outdoor seating as the bldg doesn't have an inside/back door for them and they must carry food out the front door, down the sidewalk and into the garden area.

I enjoyed the food and the event so much that I've returned and told others to go as well. What I like the most is that Chiangmai's expansive menu showcases aspects of Thai cuisine that you're probably not getting at your neighborhood spot. Many items are Northern Thai style dishes. I'd never had Khao Soi before coming here and I was blown away. The chiangmai sausage is also delicious. The roasted duck curry boasts deep flavor while also maintaining the crispiest duck skin. For appetizers, we started with the crispy salmon belly bites and the moo ping. Frying salmon is risky, but the fattiness of the belly keeps it from drying out. The moo ping is nicely grilled and served with a sweet sauce. You just can't go wrong ordering meat on a stick. As an entree, I tried the Gaeng Awm Nur, a soup-like beef dish served with a side of sticky rice. Our server had been really nice and welcoming, so I felt ok asking how I should eat my meal. She advised that I make a ball of some sticky rice with my hand, mash it a bit, and then dip it into the soup. Thai food achievement unlocked! Now I know what to do next time I'm served sticky rice. There's so much on the menu it can be hard to choose. This is encouragement to go with someone else who enjoys food so you can choose things to share! You won't be disappointed and in fact may find that your regular Thai spots could step up their game in comparison.
