    Chicken curry
    Ginger S.

    The Scarlet Vetter says.....while in Queens New York City for business I decided to Uber Eats food rather than go out and about from my hotel. I was in the mood for Thai so I placed an order at this restaurant. I ordered chives pancakes, steamed vegetable dumplings, green chicken curry, and thin noodles with traditional Thai iced tea. The noodles were dreamy and the iced tea refreshing. The chive pancakes were perfectly cooked and fragrant. I had zero complaints about the rest of the order. I would have given this four 0stars but no utensils were included necessitating a trip down to the lobby of my hotel to locate some after I discovered the omission while unpacking the order in my room.

    Drunken noodles with chicken.

    The server/ owner was very good to me! She was warm and friendly the food was so good. Did tell the owner the soup was salty. She did tell the cook. The ambiance is dark. If you add color it will give the appearance of the restaurant being larger.

    Crab Pad Thai.....amazing!!!
    Dameron R.

    I've been wanting to visit this place for a while. I'm so glad I finally came. I do wish they had a happy hour, I think it would attract more people because the food is amazing! The service is also very good, like most Thai restaurants. I also wish they had the Thai spices on the side to add to your dish. They still get 5 stars from me.

    Beautiful cozy dining space. Unique decor is a must see! Quick friendly service and generous portions. Love the Shrimp Pad Thai, had to order another! Also enjoyed the Green Curry Chicken, Papaya Salad and Crispy Pork with Chinese Broccoli. Perfect with Thai Iced Tea. Recommended!

    Black Thai salad
    Johanna R.

    We're regulars at Black Thai, whether for takeout or dining in. Last time, we enjoyed a lovely meal with my mama and husbancito. The Black Thai salad was fresh and vibrant, just the right balance of spicy and tangy. We also had the shrimp fried rice, which always hits the spot. And you can't go wrong with the red curry with chicken. Nor can I forget the chicken fried rice - it's comfort food with a kick. The cozy ambiance and attentive service adds to the experience, making it perfect for a family dinner. Definitely a spot I keep coming back to!

    Beef noodle soup
    Polly H.

    Delicious meal. Date night vibes. Great for the whole family. I believe the ambience says it all Dark, seductive, intimate. It's got tasty variety in all aspects, vegan, meat heavy, and noodlely. I love it!

    Massaman Curry Drunken Noodle
    Adina S.

    I ordered from Black Thai on Thanksgiving, as my dinner plans fell through. I was happy to see that they were open on the holiday! The food was delivered in a reasonable timeframe, which I really appreciated. I ordered the Massaman curry with chicken and requested for it to be spicy. The spicy level was great, but the curry itself was a bit lackluster. It didn't have that creamy curry consistency that I usually enjoy. The drunken noodle was delicious and had just the right flavor. The portion was also pretty generous. I forgot to take a picture, but I also got the Thai iced tea, which was really refreshing and complemented the spicy curry. I think there is better Thai food out there, but if you're looking for some noodles, this is a great delivery option.

    Ate here today before work for lunch by myself. I had brought and ate the crab rangoon and spicy fried rice with crispy pork. It was pretty good and delicious. The service there was also friendly, and attentive that I didn't feel rushed about what to choose something to try for the first time. I couldn't agree more. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time! :)

    Red Curry

    For appetizers we had the chive pancakes which were good, the chicken curry puffs were also good although not very meaty, and the chicken lettuce wraps were tasty but a bit too salty and they only gave 3 decent size pieces of lettuce, the rest were the inner pieces which is just too tiny. For dinner we had the crispy pork with drunken noodles, noodles a tad too sweet but good overall, my husband enjoyed his duck noodle soup, and red curry with chicken was average. Not my favorite, as it's something we get at every Thai restaurant. It wasn't bad just lacked depth and flavor, and wish it had wide bamboo shoots instead of matchstick. Thai iced tea was also good. Overall a decent meal, service was good, our waitress was friendly. I wouldn't make a special trip, parking was awful, but if in the area I would potentially return.

    Pad see eew
    Anna L.

    Great Thai food and decor. I enjoyed my pad see eww and a thai iced tea. The Thai iced tea is on the sweeter side but full of tea flavor.

    The soup comes with the lunch special. It is vegetable broth but too salty for me, I had to add some water to dilute it.

    Always one of my favorite Thai restaurants in the neighborhood, though sometimes their food is a little bit too salty, but overall the food is really good! However, the service needs to be improved. I came on a Saturday. The waitress was very friendly and polite. I went again today (a Thursday), it was already a few weeks later, a different waitress in glasses was there but she was not friendly and she was rude. I went there alone both times, and it was not rush hour. On that Saturday, I chose to sit at a 4-seat table near the register. The friendly waitress didn't stop me because it was not busy and there were many empty tables. While today when I went, it was not busy as well (after 2:30PM), I again chose to sit at a 4-seat table. The waitress in glasses was not happy and she made sure I came alone and asked me to sit at a 2-seat table. If it is busy, sure I will sit at a less seat table. Why can't I choose where to sit? And I saw the way she served the other customers, she was rude and unprofessional! The people at the other table wanted to place another order to go, and she thought they wanted the check. So she got them the check instead. Then one of the ladies told her that they actually wanted to order a new dish to go. Those people are not fluent in English, and this waitress was blaming them for not making it clear enough and she was saying they were confusing her. I was like, "Seriously? What kind of service is that??" Honestly, she just hates her job. I hope the management can look into the matter. The food is undoubtedly incredible, but the quality of service depends on who is on duty.. if the management doesn't train their staff well, it's not going to make good business.

    SO GOOD!!! Fresh ingredients used for their dishes. Cozy environment and excellent service. Family business owned as far as I can see...the food is really good and the prices are reasonable.

    Is there parking?

    Only street parking. Might depend on the time of day, but the weekends are really tough. You might be spending anywhere from 15-30 mins looking for a space. Weeknights are a little (very little) better.

    Can you bring your own beverage?

    No, they have wine & beer.

Price-wise was excellent with most dishes around the $10-30 range. Portions were large and meant to be shared. As for the food itself, I honestly expected better. If it was ranking in the same leagues as Fish Cheeks, Pranakhon, and Bangkok Supper Club on Beli, I thought the taste would be phenomenal but it truly just tasted like any decent thai spot I could find in SoCal. The only difference is that in SoCal there would be little to no wait. I must clarify that my qualms is not with the restaurant but with NYC having an issue of overinflating certain places and establishing high expectations of otherwise normal restaurants just doing its thing. The pad see ew was my favorite, and I liked how wide and long the noodles were. Otherwise, their Michelin Yum Duk Pla Fu was just another mango salad to me, and I had wished that the catfish tasted more like fish than breadcrumbing. The green curry was decent, nothing special. Good price for what you get though. If the wait wasn't unnecessarily long, I would consider this a nice spot for cheap, yummy Thai.
