The larb really stole the show. We were wiping up that super limey, flavorful sauce. We came in late on a Monday night and there was no wait but a few other people dining. The staff were friendly and I don't think my cup ever reached half empty. The larb was clearly our favorite, the tomyum lacked a bit of flavor so will probably skip next time. Shrimp Pad Thai was good, nice portions, and the cashew chicken was flavorful. This was a lot for two people as portions are decent so we had ended up taking most of the cashew chicken home.
Had a nice experience at Rua Thai! The presentation was creative and colorful, and the dishes were fun to look at. I especially liked the playful way everything was plated. The restaurant also has a unique, colorful interior and a fun atmosphere. A nice spot to check out if you're looking for Thai food with interesting presentation in NYC.
I made a pickup order online, which was quick and easy. It was ready within 15 minutes and all packaged nicely. I ordered the Pad See Ew with Crispy Chicken ($18.95) and Cheesy Crab Rangoon ($10). To start, I liked that they separated the crispy chicken from the pad see yu so it wouldn't get soggy. Despite that, the crispy chicken was so dry and hard. If you're going to get any dish with a protein, don't get the crispy chicken. The noodles itself were decent, but could use more flavor. I did enjoy the crab rangoons though if you like cream cheese like I do. Overall, the food was just ok to me. With so many great Thai spots in NYC, this was just whatever to me. It seems like their presentation and aesthetics make the meal seem better, but I didn't experience this since I did takeout.
Ambiance (5/5): the establishment is ornate in its decorations. Welcoming large space. Light noise volumes. Service (5/5): we were the only patrons on a Monday at 6p but it slowly had more show. We were given the option for the food come when ready or together. The food came pretty quickly. Food (4/5): every dish had a wonderful presentation. The dishes had great flavor but all were incredibly salty. Massaman curry (4/5): the curry was so salty and wished it was more thick to dip. The roti was crunchy and cooked to a perfection. It also came with a little side salad! Duck (4/5): the duck was very tender and the outer layer had a nice crunch. It came on a bed of tasty Chinese broccoli. Drunken noodles (4/5): a good portion of tender chicken, great flavors. NOTE: 5 star reviews may be bought for a free beverage. (Not mine)
Came here to catch up with a friend and to try a new spot and was not disappointed. Both of us left sayin we would come back. The food was delicious and the ambiance was actual very nice! Wasn't expecting the place to be so decorated but that was a plus. The service could have been better but the food did come out quickly. I felt like I had to constantly chase down our waitress but she seemed to be working through her lunch break so that was okay. They have an amazing lunch special for about $15 and the portions are definitely huge and worth it. We both basically had the drunken noodles but I got mine with beef & she got hers with fried chicken. I'll be coming back!
We had a great experience at Rua Thai in Brooklyn! Me and my husband really enjoyed everything. The restaurant is beautiful with a tropical vibe and lots of Instagram-worthy details, perfect for any occasion. We started with sangrias and the appetizer sampler. For mains, my husband had the Teriyaki Fried Rice with steak and egg, and I had the Royal Pineapple Fried Rice--both were delicious and full of flavor. We finished with Mango Sticky Rice, which was the perfect dessert. The staff was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service. We'll definitely be back!
I walked past this restaurant and decided to drop in and try it. It was around 2:30 so I missed the lunch rush and it was fairly empty inside. I was seated right away and the waiter just dropped the menu off and then came back a few minutes later to take my order. I ordered the Kra Pao (Thai basil ground meat and rice) and was surprised the waiter 1) didn't mention the lunch special option and 2) didn't ask me spice level preference. It looked like everyone else dining at that time either knew about the lunch special or were told about it cuz they all had ordered it. I'm not upset about my order but love a good deal, so I felt like the service could have been better. The food itself was good - flavorful and cooked well but I could have had a little more spice. A good Thai option if you're in the area!
3.5. After checking in at another local Thai spot and left ignored for 30 minutes, we upped and left. Next stop--Rua Thai. We took a leap of faith after an unpleasant experience last year and revisited. This time, all was quiet as we entered and throughout dinner. The large (almost too bright) chandelier was a stunning welcome and once settled, water was served in lovely copper cups. We shared the steamed vegetable gyoza for appetizer. Not bad but not the best. My order was Spicy Tofu with Chinese Broccoli. Good thing I asked for Steamed tofu since the dish is made with deep fried tofu. The other order was Chicken with Garlic. I had a taste and although the flavors were good, the chicken was overcooked. Service, at times, was lackluster and clumsy. Overall, we were satisfied and I will return again. In fact, the dish I ordered might be on repeat. I really liked it.
My mom said her friend thought the food here was yummy, so I brought her here to try it. The service was really great, and most of the food was ok, but I was really disappointed with the majority of their deep-fried foods. They were too dry, overcooked, and bland. Shrimp Donuts - Golden fried breaded shrimp donuts. $15 5/5 This was the best thing I had here. I know I said their deep-fried foods aren't good, but this was one of the exceptions. The shrimp was bouncy and succulent. The batter was just right and tasted pretty light. The donuts were served with a sweet chili sauce. Duck Crepe - Crispy duck, cucumber, mix salad wrapped in roti bread. $12 4/5 This was an inventive dish. The roti bread was nicely crisped. The layers of salad leaves and veggies gave a nice moistness to the dish. The duck was good too. One order of this is pretty filling despite being an appetizer. Kao Pad Muk / Squid Ink Fried Rice w/ Fried Calamari 3.5/5 It sounds interesting, but it was not memorable. The salted egg yolk flavor was very subtle, even though the salted egg yolk crumbs were sprinkled all over the dish. Not the best calamari I've had, but also not the worst. Not sure how strong the squid ink flavoring should be, but it wasn't very strong here. Pad see yu with crispy chicken - $18.95 3/5 You get to pick your desired protein with the pad see yu. I went with crispy chicken because I haven't seen that option before at other Thai restaurants. The pad see yu itself was pretty good, but the pile of crispy chicken on top was a no-go. As mentioned before, they don't do deep-fried foods that well. It didn't really taste like chicken because all the juiciness was sucked out of it, and it was hard to detect the chicken taste. The batter was too much (too crispy and dry). I should've gone with a different protein. Branzino with Massaman Curry 3.5/5 The massaman curry was great. It actually went really well with the deep-fried branzino. But the branzino was flavorless without the curry. My husband really enjoyed the fish, though, and my mom was obsessed with the curry. Royal Pineapple Fried Rice 3/5 The fried rice was fine, but I didn't appreciate how the seafood was piled on top of the pineapple opening. You have to clear all the seafood before getting to the rice. The seafood was deep-fried, which I wasn't aware of - maybe it was depicted in the photo, but I can't recall. And unfortunately, the deep-fried seafood was not that great. The shrimp, in particular, was overcooked. I did enjoy the big pieces of pineapple slices on the side. Pad Puk Tofu - Sauteed mix vegetables and tofu $17.95 4/5 I enjoyed this sauteed dish of vegetarian ingredients, but the price is pretty steep for what it is. It came with a plate of plain white rice. Chicken kra-prao - 1/5 You get to pick the protein for this dish, and we went with chicken. Something about the flavor was just not enjoyable for me, so this was my least favorite dish. It came with a fried egg on top and a bed of rice. The chicken part of the dish could've used some sauciness. It was very dry and didn't look appetizing. Teriyaki fried rice 4/5 I didn't try the steak since it was kind of red/pink, but I did enjoy the fried rice. My group said the steak was good, though. We had wanted to order an udon dish, but they ran out of udon for the day! It was only lunchtime when we went, so we were taken aback.
Food was lackluster to me. Got -Green curry - rice had minimal fragrance; Trader Joe's frozen green curry has better value and flavor, one thing that rua is better ks there are more toppings than Trader Joe's -pad Thai - mostly noodles, tasted sweet and like ketchup , missing savory nutty flavor profile. Thai tea was the best part of this meal. Comparable to / arguably better than canned Thai tea drink available in international section of major grocery stores. Fairly prompt delivery time. Nothing spilled.
My friend and I decided to check out Rua Thai on a Thursday at 5:15pm. The interior has an instagrammable aesthetic, perfect for catching up with friends or for date night. We were the only people in the restaurant the entire time, but it was a stormy day, so that could have impacted the decisions of others. I got massaman curry with tofu ($17.95) and my friend got pad see yu with pork ($17.95). The branding on my friend's pad see yu was a nice touch! Though prices are comparable to other Brooklyn thai places, I do think the dishes are on the smaller side. Generally, the food was tasty, and I would recommend it if you are in the area. For me, I prefer a less liquid consistency to my curry and a stronger peanut flavor. I had no issues with spice for this, so it's a good choice if you are sensitive to spice. Service was very attentive! We had consistent water refills and check-backs. I would come back to try one of their special dishes, to see if those deliver more on flavor.

We celebrated a family member's birthday yesterday, June 01, 2024. Thai cuisine is one of everyone's favorite, so it was just a matter of finding a decent restaurant, as there are many in Brooklyn/Metropolitan, NY. When we got there, there was a loud family finishing up its celebration. We were happy for the peace, thereafter. What I do appreciate is that the prices are pretty on par in comparisons to the restaurants I frequent. The prices were pretty standard and reasonable. The food was pretty good. The curry dish's potatoes could have stood to be softer, but other then that, the plates were pretty sizeable, seasoned, and presented nicely. What I do think can use some work is: Restaurant Upkeep - For the area of Boreum Hill, Downtown Brooklyn, the restaurant should pay attention to ensuring that areas are clean while guests are visiting. At my table, there was food on the floor at the far end of the table. It was pretty noticeable. After the large party left, the staff did do some cleaning, which I can appreciate. The upkeep includes the bathroom. We had to continually as for napkins. I also asked for knives and I had to ask again because we were only given two (and there were 3 of us). I felt like I was bothering the staff asking for utensils and napkins, which are pretty standard. Perhaps try cloth napkins, or having a napkin holder at each table. Appetizers- may require people to eat with their fingers. The napkins provided were tiny. The silverware- seems old and worn (copper like color was odd). Silverware should be standard or maybe offer disposable utensils. The space is nice, quaint but sufficient. Perhaps some more decor would be more inviting. It is a decently decorated space. A member of my party stated that staff could stand to be dressed more appropriately. Maybe a uniform of some sort vs shorts. And if wearing shorts, then perhaps professional attire could work - ie peddle pushers/capris/knickers or knee-length shorts, may do However, that is an opinion. Hospitality thrives on referrals, so an establishment has to make customers feel welcome. While the staff was courteous enough, I did feel like simple restaurant candor and etiquette could improve. I would be back here for a quick meal and drinks- the appetizers and drinks are outstanding. The Thai beer and sake were both amazing, and the drinks are also appealing and sizeable. Overall, we enjoyed the celebration and visiting the restaurant, save for the aforementioned observances. read more

It includes juicy siu mai, classic satay chicken, cheesy crab rangoon, crunchy fried wings. The crispy whole Branzino, so good! Paired with mango salad and colorful sticky rice. The fish was incredibly flavorful with a nice snappy texture. Massaman curry was rich and fragrant, generously loaded with beef Even stir-fry veggies were crunchy and flavorful read more

I came here for dinner and it was good. I had the wings and the noodles with shrimp. It had a good amount of shrimp. I enjoyed it and my friend gave me one of her curry puffs which were also good. I did not have any of the drinks. The service was good and the place was pretty. The reason I did not give it a five is because it was not memorable in regards to the taste of the foods while it was good it is not a place, I am rushing back to. I would recommend it and I would go back if I am in the area. Also the amount of food they give is sufficient, I had leftovers . The place is nice for all gatherings, a very friendly atmosphere. read more

my friend and I came here for lunch on a weekend! We got: *shrimp donuts $13 *roti canai $9 *mama tom yum grilled river prawns $29 *pineapple seafood fried rice $26 *spiked thai iced milk tea $12 (HH) *strawberry guava fizz mocktail $8 first, presentation of the entrees were insane, so pretty. we really liked the entrees. mama tom yum grilled river prawns noodles were so flavorful. the pineapple seafood fried rice was also good but compared to noodles, lacked some flavor, but pineapples were soo sweet, yum. shrimp donuts were yum, but the roti was not that good, wasn't a fan. last, the spiked thai tea with coconut rum and whipped cream was sooo good, i love. my friend also enjoyed her strawberry guava fizz mocktail, which essentially was like juice. It's a chill restaurant with a decent number of seats, nothing too fancy and would recommend for a casual thai lunch meet up. service was not bad. read more

I came here with my fiance for brunch on Sunday afternoon. I went to their instagram and noticed it is inspired by float market of Thailand which makes the interior so unique! When I looked at their menu, it seemed pricier than what we were used to - but this is Williamsburg! Their creative menu caught our eye though - with mama noodles (which I am obsessed with!) and how they were able to make it into a fancier meal. The apps were delish! We got shrimp donuts and mala wings - 10/10 recommend! They also have awesome drinks - we got color changing lemonade and spiked Thai iced tea. The lemonade isn't life changing - it just taste like regular lemonade. Overall, I enjoyed dining at this restaurant! read more

I love Thai food and this was one of the best Thai spots I've ever been to. I love the concept of serving modern Thai influenced by Thai Floating Market Cuisine and the ambiance definitely spoke to that. I loved the booth we sat it, it was super cozy. As for the food, each dish was well plated and well presented and while they were beautiful they tasted even better than they looked. I really enjoyed the Duck Crepes, they were super soft and buttery while the duck was super tender and not greasy at all, that was one of my favorite dishes. We really liked the Shrimp Donuts and the Curry Puffs as well. For mains we ordered the Salmon Basil and Pla Tod Numpla was cooked to perfection and the flavors were out of this world. I really enjoyed the lollipop wrapped in gold leaf that came with the Going Green and the Tom Ka Za was so sweet and refreshing. The service was friendly and she really took her time to explain everything which I really appreciate. I really enjoyed my experience here and I will be back. read more

Belated Anniversary dinner with my babe. . We decided on a change of scenery and headed out to Brooklyn to this cute local Thai place. . This place was steadily busy so I thought this was a good sign. . The bartender, who was also our server, was very sweet and friendly. . We toasted to our anniversary with a Floating Market - tequila, elderberry kombucha, lime juice, and sour mix with a cute gummy bear garnish. . We started with Larb Fries (delicious with tangy heat) with sweet chili sauce and chicken satay with peanut sauce. . I had the Colossal Crab Fried Rice which came with creamy and crispy Crab Rangoon and he had Pad Thai Boran. . We ended it with a lightly sweet Mango Sticky Rice. . It was a perfect night together. We'll be back. read more

Today was my first time visiting RUA, and I was highly satisfied with my visit. The atmosphere was quiet and cozy. Plus, there was natural light, which helped me capture videos and photos of all items my guest and I ordered during our visit. Everything I ordered was delicious and fresh! The staff were accomodating and helpful. My favorite items included Curry Puff, Crying Tiger and Fried Bananas. My guest also enjoyed her meal, and she was happy that the restaurant offered vegetarian options. It's a great option for anyone as the menu also includes mocktails and vegan menu options. Overall, I highly recommend checking out RUA if you're a fan of Thai cuisine! read more

You can totally tell I'm crazy about Thai food when I hit up this Thai restaurant in Brooklyn right after getting back from Bangkok to New York.

Totally Thai vibes, peace signs and all! Plus, the Tom Ka Za cocktail hits the spot! Overall, it's a solid experience. Here's the breakdown: Food: 4/5, Ambience: 4/5, Drinks: 5/5, Service: 4.5/5. As for what we ordered: Appetizer: shrimp donut, Larb wing Main: MoMa Tom Yum grilled river prawn, fried fish Drink: Tom Ka Za, Spliked Thai ice milk tea : Dessert: Mango sticky rice as always read more

Rua surprised me and went above the quality I expected. The staff was very friendly and I'd definitely recommend their Chef Specialties, they're such great authentic Thai staples. We had the Pla Tod Numpla, crispy branzino and it was fried to perfection. Not too oily and fried in a way that I had a lot of amazing crispy bits. Came with mango salad and beautiful butterfly pea rice. The serving was great value and could feed two! Don't miss out on the duck crepes too they are a lovely flavor with plum sauce with some Chinese mooshu vibes. Enjoyed it so much I ordered take out the next day with their lunch special and also loved their pad see ew. Had a nice smokey wok fire flavor. Excited to keep exploring their menu! read more

Gosh! Where to begin! I woke up the next day after visiting this hidden gem salivating for more! The ambiance and decor is much more humble and unassuming, which was a giveaway that the food would be above average because more effort and investments went to the meal and less bells and whistles wasted on anything else. The cocktails hit just the right amount of notes in the taste buds. The meals, well seasoned and expertly presented in classic local Thai plates that sent me back to one of many trips I'd taken visiting Thailand. Very tasty, aromatic, well seasoned and dare I say... abundant. So go there hungry because you'll need an empty stomach to accomodated their generous portions. I'll be posting a video review on my Instagram page shortly @tinuonline read more
this modern thai spot is inspired by the floating markets in Thailand. love the interior. the presentation of the dishes were on point. love how the shrimp donuts came stacked. my crab fried rice was literally served in a coconut! the sauce that came with it was so so delicious. we ended the meal with the mango sticky rice and it did not disappoint. the service was quick and they got pretty busy later in the night. can't wait to come back! read more

Had a great experience last weekend at Rua-this was a quaint but very cute little Thai restaurant located in Brooklyn Heights. My friend and I had a diverse group of dishes, I started with the spiked Thai ice tea....never knew such a thing existed! BUT was pleasantly surprised, the drink was delicious!! My friend had the Floating Market which was super colorful and pretty. For appetizers we had the Shrimp Doughnuts & Cheesy Crab Rangoon both were very rich & savory. For mains my friend ordered the Duck Yaowarat and I had the Crying Tiger. My friend's dish looked GREAT. My steak was cooked to perfection BUT it was very fatty so I kind of regretted that I didn't order something different :( the service and overall experience was wonderful....I would definitely dine here again!! read more

It was a quiet evening and there were only a few ppl there. My boyfriend and I came for date night and it was super cute. Cocktails were yummy, we had a Tom Kha cocktail and another one that was similar to a margarita. Staff were super sweet. The food was delicious. We had chive pancakes and crab rangoon to start. Very simple thai appetizers but my all time favs. Then we had the ribeye and this tom yum mama dish. 10/10 read more
