    Kee mao ( Drunken noodle )
    Ingrid C.

    This place has always been on my to-try list, and I'm glad I did. There is some bar seating, and a couple of tables in the back. I definitely would recommend reserving as I can see space getting kind of tight. If you're seated in the back of the restaurant, waiters may have a harder time getting to you. - Peek Gai, (4.5/5): 3 pieces of fried chicken wings. Perfectly crispy, nicely salted, and dip was nice and tangy. Portion size was small relative to the $15 price - Kee Mao, (4.5/5): I love the big flat noodles! They are so chewy and pair nicely with the sauce. I substituted shrimp with chicken, and the waitress was kind enough to bring me more chili flakes to spice it up more - Nuer Yang Jaew, (4.5/5): good steak! It was juicy, not at all chewy and pretty moist. Though I will say it didn't blow my mind- it was definitely something I could cook at home as well - Panang Ped, (4/5): succulent duck, and a nice sweet and slightly spicy curry Happy to see so many Thai spots pop up around the city :)

    Comfortable neighborhood restaurant The cocktails are creative and tasty. The Ka-Prao Ribeye is spicy and delicious. The service is attentive.

    Braised Pork Belly. $27. Particularly good version of Moo Palo. Nice and tender

    I returned to this Thai restaurant a couple of months ago, having first visited a few years prior. The menu is a bit smaller compared to many other Thai spots, which I didn't mind, as the food in general was still pretty tasty. I started with a cocktail, the Morning Dew for $19, with mezcal, aloe vera, and lychee, which was decent. It was definitely mezcal-forward with a bit of sweetness from the lychee. We started this time with the Tum Strawberry, their unique take on a Thai salad for $15, consisting of fresh strawberry with spicy dressing. If I recall correctly, I slightly preferred the La Tiang from last time, but this was still very tasty. The sweet strawberries went well with the sweet, salty, and spicy dressing, which had some fish sauce, chili, and other ingredients. The portion size was good enough, the flavors were nice, and the price was decent enough that I would recommend this. For mains, two of our dishes matched our previous experiences. As before, we loved the Nua Yang Jaew (grilled northeastern style ribeye steak,) while I found the Panang Ped (roasted duck Panang curry with flatbread) to be fine again. The steak (which is $2 more, being $30 now) was tender, and the jaew sauce was slightly sweet with enough chili to balance. The duck for $28 was fine, with enough meat and a well-seared duck, but I prefer other spots in terms of their panang/phaenang sauce. The only new dish was the Braised Pork Belly (or rather Moo Palo) for $27, listed as 5 hours slow-cooked in five spices with shiitake and baby bok choy. I'm usually not the hugest fan of this Chinese-Thai specialty, but they cooked this quite well. The pork had very well-rendered fat with enough flavor but not too much, and the five-spice powder wasn't too overpowering. The vegetables were good as well, with my preference being the shiitake as it absorbed the sauce, of course. The food here was pretty good again. I preferred my first meal a bit, but it was still a good meal. The first time was a mid-4 and the second time was a lower 4.

    They were open on Thanksgiving!! Thank you for a great meal on a holiday. It was a one woman show during lunch on Thanksgiving, and she killed it! It was relatively full given not many places are open, and I'm glad I got to share a meal with my friend that just got in from DC. We shared the wings (4 for $15) and the grilled steak ($28). The wings are so good and crispy and flavorful - my friend really enjoyed them. They were too spicy for me and I think it's partially because I had a cankor sore lmao. Such unique flavor - this is a really decent option. The grilled steak seemed a bit messy looking but it tasted great, I think its a ribeye cut and it's just the piece we got. The sauce for the steak is really good - refreshing to balance out any fattiness from the steak. The steak does not come with a rice, so we got a side of rice ($4). It was such a small portion and it came in the same size bowl as the sauce for the steak, so not a lot at all. It would have been nice to have a bigger portion. The bathroom is super nice and clean - wasn't necessarily expecting it and it was nice to experience!

    SERVICE - located in east village on a quieter street between 1st and 2nd ave - indoor and outdoor seating available - can accommodate groups of 2-6 people - service is very friendly and let us wait on their tables outside while our group was coming - food prepared and served quickly - restrooms available for diners MENU - modern take on thai classics - limited vegan/vegetarian options - slightly pricey ($25 per entree) FOOD - massaman tofu (7/10): tofu, cauliflower, and potato in a spicy and sweet massaman coconut curry sauce served with white rice. This was one of the only vegan options on the menu but I was glad to see it had a substantial protein and vegetables. The flavors of the massaman curry were warming yet subtle. The portion was a good size for one person with the rice though could also be shared if you were going family style. WOULD I GO BACK? Yes, though I would have liked to see more vegetarian options on the menu.

    Thai Iced Tea
    Victoria K.

    Really enjoyed the lunch I had at Rynn! They offer a $15 lunch special with an option to add $5 for a drink. The lunch menu is pretty small, with only about 5 options to choose from, but the portions are large, and the food is super flavorful! I ordered the Khao Gai Zaab (spicy crispy chicken with rice). My spice tolerance is not the highest, and I will say I somewhat struggled with this, so if you're a spice baby I wouldn't recommend this, BUT the chicken was so satisfyingly crispy and the flavors went crazy. It's a dish I've never had before, and I could never make it, so I'm so glad I got to try it. My friend got the pad thai which looked delicious. Her portion size for the pad thai was huge, so I appreciate how generous they are. The Thai tea was served with milk foam on top, which isn't something I've ever seen before! After mixing, the color is a darker orange than what you might normally be used to from a restaurant Thai iced tea, and you can definitely taste how the tea has a stronger flavor and is slightly bitter as well (not in a bad way!). If you're a fan of strong teas, I'd recommend this drink. Service was also wonderful! Felt super taken care of.

    Came to Rynn for the restaurant week dinner offering, which was one of the better ones I had through the past few weeks. For $45, the restaurant provided well over $70 of items all at regular size! Plus they were so yummy. The favorite across the table was actually the wings dish, so much so that we ordered an additional one outside of the restaurant week prix fixe! The restaurant is an intimate and small setting, so reservations are probably necessary for most nights!

    Butterfly pea coconut ice cream
    Amanda W.

    We dined in for summer restaurant week, enjoyed the $45 dinner set menu with $16 cocktail. Good quality burbon in my not a mango season cocktail, it said jasmine but i didn't taste that. Coco mellow cocktail is recommended by our server and it was indeed the best tasting one. If you like mezcal, you'll enjoy morning dew cocktail otherwise don't get it haha. Butterfly pea coconut ice cream taste like vanilla bean instead. My favorite is the chicken wings, fish sauce is great. Strawberry salad is refreshing, egg net was an interesting try love the sauce and the bird eye chili!! Khao Soi wasn't the best we had, soggy noodle taste like clumpy peanut noodles from fj cuisine, fried chicken was good tho, and the steak is yum. Did indeed enjoy the bathroom but not so much the over attentive staff.

    A charming Thai restaurant located in the East Village with beautiful decor, friendly service and excellent food. My friend and I shared the spring roll appetizer and the yum gaew, that is pork bits with fried wonton strips which was quite good but very spicy. We both had the pork pad se ew entree which was fresh and on point. They also offer a $15 daily lunch special. Service is quick so if you dine in for your lunch hour, you will be back at your desk on time. Definitely planning to visit again.

    Came here on a whim given our other Thai spots were all booked - the interior is lovely decorated, but unfortunately that's where the positives stop. The service wasn't great, and our food was largely lacking flavor. We ordered the mushroom truffle croquettes, which was delicious but unfortunately just an appetizer. I ordered the khao soi, but the chicken breading slid off the chicken and the noodles were not spicy or flavorful at all. Definitely better Thai restaurants in the city.

    Peek gai.
    Wendy W.

    I came here during the winter Restaurant Week, and it was a real highlight. Peek gai - Boy were they generous with these chicken wings. Considering it was an appetizer, it could've actually been a whole other main course. The spicy roasted rice dressing had me sniffling, but the flavor was so addictive I kept spooning more on. Pu karee - This crab curry was the reason I wanted to come. I'm usually not a big fan of soft shell crab since it's so fried, but I tried one piece, which was cooked well but reconfirmed my stance. My friend had the remaining three pieces. The curry itself was absolutely delicious though. So flavorful and comforting, with a good amount of crab meat, and an extra little zip from the turmeric. Nua yang jaew - I loved the sauce that this steak came with. The meat had good flavor, but was a little chewier than I would've liked. Thai tea creme brulee - Really good, and shockingly not as sweet and uber-creamy as I thought it would be. I'm so thankful for the variety of excellent Thai restaurants in NYC, and I'd return to this one in a heartbeat.

    Panang Ped
    Bre M.

    A decent place for dinner but I was disappointed with my reservation experience. I made a reservation for 8:30 and met up with a friend ravenous. When we arrived though, there were absolutely no tables available and we were placed at the bar to eat. The whole time we were there not a single table opened up which meant that our table was not reserved in the first place which was frustrating. Other than that though, we had a solid experience. For appetizers we ordered the Peek Gai wings which were delicious. I ordered the Morning Dew cocktail which I would give a 7/10. Well balanced and refreshing with the addition of aloe Vera. And for my entree I ordered the Panang Ped, a duck dish with crispy fry bread. Really yummy!

    I went to dinner with a friend at Rynn before a show. I found out about them through the Seated app. The have a concise but interesting menu which includes some unique specialty dishes like crispy soft shell crab, which I had, and the braised pork belly, which my friend ordered. The food came out very fast. I thought the portion was good. The crab was nicely fried. I thought the sauce was a little fishy and not as rich as I was expecting but it grew on me. My friend also ordered a lemonade which she said was tasty. The restaurant is quite small but the ambience was nice and the service was friendly. Overall, it's a cute neighborhood spot. Bonus: they also have all day happy hour on the weekend!

Ambiance: This place has a nice ambiance, definitely very "New York" -- dark (you can't see how dirty the floor is) and loud music (maybe too loud). We sat upstairs (we had a reservation) and of all the people on the top there was a party of 4 (us), a party of 8 (all dudes celebrating something) and the rest of the tables were on a DATE - which I thought was funny. Service: We were served by Ann-Marie who was so delightful. She was kind, super nice, and took the time to speak to us (which is basically how we figured out she wasn't a native New York City person). She gave us good food suggestions and we were very happy with our selection. Food: Here is what we ordered * Steak Frites: My two boys got the steak frites and I have to say the steak was awesome! I had a bite of each of theirs and they each ordered it differently (one Medium Rare/Medium and one Medium) and they both were prepared PERFECTLY. The fries were overflowing. * Caeser Salad with Salmon: My wife got the salad with Salmon (they only have a few salad options) and she enjoyed it. * Prawn and Crab Risotto: I got this and I have to say it was VERY bland. I wouldn't get this if you are looking for taste. I had to put salt and pepper on it to make it have any semblance of taste. Value/Price: I would say this is not over priced but it is not cheap either...bill is attached. I would recommend it to folks who are looking for a good place to either go out on a date or a family type meal.

Service was good. We had the fried chicken Benedict and the crab cake Benedict. I was a bit confused when I saw that each Benedict dish only had one poached egg - shouldn't it always be two? I guess that's shrinkflation (plus inflation) for you. That bent said, the crab cake was actually really big and filling. The side of potatoes were really delicious. Would I come back for brunch again? Very unlikely. But, it does seem like a pretty "safe choice" if you need a last minute reservation for a group.

The Amazake Kick was balanced with just the right amount of sweetness, making it a fantastic starter. For food, we ordered the scotch egg, sliders, and fish and chips. The scotch egg was solid, though the sausage layer felt slightly dry this time around. The sliders were great, while the fish and chips were decent--nicely crispy, but the fish needed a bit more flavor seasoning. We tried several other drinks throughout the night, and my top three recommendations would be the Amazake Kick, Hotmail, and Lock & Key. If you're searching for a cozy spot with great drinks and light bites, this place is definitely worth adding to your list!

    Very cute speakeasy hidden behind an empty hair salon. The decor was very fun, and I couldn't quite…read moretell what the theme was. It's a very small space, so it may be a bit of a wait for a seat. We came around 8:45 PM, and got a spot at the bar after about 20 minutes. We tried the yuzu contact and the ma-chet baker, and the ma-chet baker was definitely our favorite. It tasted just like a matcha latte, and I liked the bits of gen maicha in it. It wasn't very strong however. The yuzu contact was also very light and citrusy.

    yuzu highball mt highball…read more- highball was nice, basic, and refreshing; nothing much to note about but ive definitely had better - i liked the yuzu a bit more because the mt highball was a bit too alcoholic hojicha colada - hojicha is their seasonal menu and it also is my favorite! The tea was strong and fragrant - it is on the sweeter side, a bit like dessert, so i had to pair it with water, but it was still yummy and would recommend yuzu contact - this was alright! Typical yuzu but ive had better ones - personally feel like the yuzu can be brighter and a bit sweeter rating: 4/5 - the drinks were all good but nothing particularly stood out except for the hojicha colada - the vibe and the music really brought up my rating though! It was such a cute, cozy, intimate spot for dates - small speakeasy with only a few seats, similar to bars in japan; it's one of those japanese listening bars and i love it - there was light jazz in the background, not too loud that i had to shout - the mood was perfect; I couldn't stop staring at the interior decor and immerse myself in this little cozy corner - service was super quick, nothing much to note IG: @nom.noms.only

    Apotheke was one of my first experiences with a hidden speakeasy a number of years ago, and it…read morestill remains the OG in my vast encyclopedia of experiences. :) Strolling down Chinatown's busy and gritty Doyers Street, looking for any sign of Apotheke is a fond memory, then finally figuring out where it was, and entering through the mysterious and otherworldly threshold resulted a transformative experience that made me feel like I time traveled. Mood lighting, comfortable seating, great drinks in a cozy and Victorian-inspired space are the perfect blend of unique and. I always felt like I was part of something special the few times enjoyed creative, delicious, and strong libations from the pros at the bar. While it has always been pricey, I do feel like the excellent service ambiance, and drink quality warrant this, but may prevent more folks from becoming regulars so to speak. I love the clever and compact bathroom design, too. IYKYK Long live Apotheke!

    Fifteen years later and Apotheke is still one of my favorites!…read more You will walk past this hidden speakeasy several times before finding it. I could tell you to look for the blue beaker sign that says "Chemist" but the better tell is the random guy sitting on a stool outside. He'll be the only person on the street, so no worries about missing him! The menu has changed over the years, but the quality has not. The bartenders are social and personable. And the prices are in line for the area. My bestie and I loved the vibe. One of the best speakeasies she's had the pleasure of experiencing. Don't miss out on this place!
