    Pad Thai Crispy Pork
    Austin L.

    This Thai spot in Midtown East is a great choice for a yummy authentic meal with so many dishes to choose from! The Thai tea was creamy and refreshing. The meat balls were plump and juicy. The wings had a nice crisp and bite. The seafood soup was sour and had tomato umami flavor with lots of fresh seafood. I really enjoyed the turmeric flavor in the curry fried rice and the chicken was grilled well and paired nicely with the peanut sauce. The noodles were on the sweeter side and had lots of crispy pork! Service was good and there's lots of space inside. It's only one floor though, so it could get packed quickly on a weekend night.

    Highly recommend Chicken satay, Panang Curry, and Basil Eggplant! They also have brown rice option. Love it. Good environment too. Little cute place. Not pricy at all.

    This restaurant is beautiful and delicious. Underrated. The red spells drink yummy. Rose and lemon. The blue Hawaiian was good because it wadnt too sweet and had a good amount of liquor. The. Crispy pork was perfect. Exactly as it looked. The show stopper was the purple dumplings Sweet, salty peanuts and savory. The grilled branding was fun to eat and excellent. Nice char with fresh raw veggies and pork skin. Definitely paired nice together. The ginger steamed fish was sweet and sour and perfect.

    The ambience is very good, it is very clean, service is also good - food is actually very good! They have been in the neighborhood in the same block for years. They moved across the street in a much better design and still good food! I suggest the roti canai, shrimp rolls - you actually get a whole shrimp. The crab rice is excellent and we had the fish served in a fired base to keep the fish warm. They also now have mango with sticky rice

    A great neighborhood spot! We really like the pad thai and apps. Portions were huge, and there's usually tables available, even on weekends.

    Pad Thai Noodle
    Mohamed K.

    I ordered the Pad Thai with Tofu using their website. It was hot and ready at the scheduled pickup time. How did it taste? Pretty good! A solid pad Thai, not too eggy or fish saucy, just how I like it. It was a good portion and I like that they use the thin noodles. Hot, fresh, flavorful, not too greasy.

    Everything was soooo nice inside. The bathroom was individual. The atmosphere was so pretty. I think the curry dip app was one of the best apps I've had ever. I actively think about it The service was amazing. They helped me choose which to try and what not which I appreciate

    Fried fish was too dry and tasteless. The side salad was good.

    Neighborhood Thai gem! The food is consistently tasty here, warm atmosphere and polite waitstaff.

    I really enjoyed their branzino, it was cooked so well and the sauce it came with just made it even better. I highly recommend coming with your family, friends or even solo. And their drink menu is pretty awesome. Short ribs and curry hit so yummy and the service was friendly. I enjoyed their lunch specials, I would've tried something else besides the veggie dumplings (I did not like) and pork belly (which was not bad) but I did want them crisper. Really good space, definitely would return for another try!

    Drunken noodle
    Fenn N.

    We came for a staff lunch and had a reservation ahead of time. The restaurant was well lit and the music wasn't too loud. The staff accommodated our group well. The lunch special was very filling and delicious. I had the drunken noodles with fried tofu and it was great. Will be going back!

    Green Curry Fried Rice
    April R.

    Absolute gem. Stumbled across this little place and from the outside it didn't look like much but let me tell you. It's a definitely don't miss. Staff was friendly, water, referrals, consistently hot tea came not overstepped. I was able to remove the teabag to my preference and all the food was good spicy amazing but absolutely worth it.!

    During my most recent trip to NYC, I came here for dinner on an early Sunday evening. It was only a few block north from where I was staying. As I reached the restaurant, I noticed a long line of people in front of Tomi Jazz. It looked to be a Japanese jazz bar. Just from the restaurant photos that I could find online, it looked like a total hipster spot. Since I don't drink alcohol anymore, it didn't really appeal to me. Well, LTK, was just the opposite. It was a little past 5 pm and the place was all but empty empty except for a couple at the bar. After being seated and looking over the menu, I ordered the tom yum soup with chicken and pineapple fried rice with beef. The presentation was good. Both the soup and fried rice were good. This was one of the more fancier Thai restaurants that I've visited. I wouldn't mind coming back.

    Thai Chicken Wings | 1/30/2023
    Samantha C.

    Stopped by back in 2023 when they were a very small hallway with almost no room to dine. Went in when they opened and were able to be seated straight away. Server was attentive and friendly. We just wanted a quick bite before heading to the airport. We ordered THAI CHICKEN WINGS and PAD SEE EW (no longer on their menu). The wings were fried nicely however lacked flavor so it has to be eaten with the dipping sauce it comes with. The pad see ew was great though - perfectly flavored and charred to perfection. Sad that it's no longer on the menu. Closest thing to that dish would be the drunken noodles. Would consider visit their upgraded location in the future and maybe try other dishes when I'm back in the area.

You only get 90 minutes to dine, but our server was a little generous with that time limit as there wasn't any one waiting when we left. All of the dishes we ordered was good in it's own right. The pork belly fried rice had a hint of sweetness to it. I think it might be tamarind or something. But I could totally be off based. The crispy bits of pork belly added a nice texture. It's nothing like I've ever had before. The short ribs was fantastic. Full of flavor and fall of the bones tender. The papaya salad is something that was very familiar to all of the others I've had. Very comforting. Overall, I would definitely come back here and receiving great service on top of the great tasting food was all I could have asked for.

They had a very respectable pad see ew beef - sweet and savory, good amount of egg, a little stronger bitter broccoli but otherwise a good dish, good quantity to fill you up even though in the bowl it seemed smaller than it actually was with the rice noodle cooked well. The steamed sea bass with garlic and lime (Pla Neueng Manow) had beautifully cooked sea bass with a very nice spicy/sour/savory green garlic sauce which I'll have to try again. The fried version is supposedly very good, too, and the one person that always gets the basil fried rice had a wonderful aroma that we'll have to try again later. Mango sticky rice was a tasty dessert (although we probably didn't need the 3 orders they recommended for our table of 6), though usually like I like the purple rice version better, and came with a very cute shovel spoon. They gave a free birthday dessert of caramel delight which was ok, crumbly and sweet (I'm not a caramel fan but others liked it). Overall, good experience and solid food - while not the best Thai I've ever had, this certainly is a keeper for the Midtown East area. Will come again soon to try the lunch specials! Service was a little slow due to how busy they were, but do appreciate the birthday candle for the birthday friend!

A quick ride on the LIRR or E Train will have you enjoying some of the best Thai food NYC has to offer. For me it all started with their Shrimp Croquettes that were fried to perfection and packed with flavor, then it was the Crispy Pork Belly, and for a second, I had to ask myself, am I in the Dominican Republic?! The crunch, seasoning, and flavor in every bite let me know immediately that they understood the crispy pork belly assignment! Let's not forget the cocktails! Each drink paired beautifully with the appetizers and dishes throughout our dining experience. Now, let's talk about the entrées. Their menu ranges from specialty seafood dishes to authentic, modern Thai cuisine. As a seafood lover, I especially appreciated the generous amount of Lump Crab meat in the Southern Crab Curry. The flavor was rich, comforting, and absolutely worth ordering. But the unexpected STAR of the night was the #TaroCustard! Who knew that the "everything bagel energy" could transfer so effortlessly into a dessert?! It was those crispy fried shallots that did it for me! If you're a true #Foodie, you already know sometimes it's that unexpected flavor assist/combination that creates pure magic on your tongue.

Of course, we opted to try things that were out of the "norm". We started with the Khun Pan Pld Fashioned (which is old fashion with a Thai tea twist), of course, Thai iced tea, soft shell crab larb (omg so mouth watering) and the Pla Muk Tod (Fried Tumeric Coconut Calamari). These were new on the summer menu and I hope they stay! The dipping sauce in the calamari was sweet, tangy and syrupy with some heat but not too sweet. It was good without the sauce but with it, made it even better. The soft shell crab larb, wow, blew us away. The crunch and heat factor with the basil "salad" was out of this world. It is definitely spicy but is soo tasty. From their "privileged" menu, we had the duck chu chee which is a crispy roasted duck in a creamy mildly spicy red curry - the duck and curry was soo bomb, super crispy and stands out from other places. Finally the Royal Thai Spiced Lamb which is grilled lamb chops with karee curry sauce, snow pea tips and roti, sooo flavorful and so good. The veggies and the lamb paired so well with the curry sauce. It was not gamey or chewy but after all the appetizers I could not finish this dish. For dessert, we did try the Khao Neaw Puak which is a taro sticky rice with coconut ice cream. Again different but I think I will pass on this next time.
