    Pineapple Fried Rice with mixed seafood
    Stephen L.

    Great Thai restaurant in West Village with a cool interior and tasty food. I ordered the pineapple fried rice with mixed seafood ($31), which was a big portion of delicious fried rice. There was a good mix of different seafood in there including shrimp, scallops, squid, and mussels. The squid was a tad on the chewy side but the other ingredients were all good. I will say though that on the menu, it showed the fried rice being served in an actual pineapple while in reality, it just came out in a plain white bowl, which seemed quite misleading. I also tried the Top Thai spring rolls - they were good but for $17, it seemed a bit overpriced. I think the best part of Top Thai is the interior, which has some colorful and funky Thai-themed decor throughout. There is a lively atmosphere and while it was busy, we were still able to get a same-day reservation for weekend lunch. The service was fine, but I thought our waitress could've been a bit more attentive. Overall, Top Thai has a really nice environment and good food, so despite my few points for improvement, it still strongly deserves at least 4 stars.

    Mango sticky rice
    Linda C.

    OHHHH MYYYY FOODDDIEEEE! So glad my bf and I found this Thai restaurant on our first night in New York. We arrived around 7pm and waited roughly 45mins. Thank god we put our name on the waitlist on Yelp. This place gets packedddd so definitely come when you aren't starving to wait. Food: 10/10 We ordered the fried calamari, panang curry with crispy duck, grilled steak with 5 spiced sauce, and mango sticky rice. Everything was phenomenal. The steak was cooked to perfection. The duck on the other hand was the highlight of the show. The skin was crispy and the meat was soft and juicy, perfect pairing with the curry. Highly recommend ordering the crispy duck panang curry. Atmosphere: 8/10 It is a small restaurant. Very packed. The tables are very close to each other where you can hear other peoples conversation. We loved the interior design of this restaurant. It really felt like we were in Asia. Service: 8/10 It took a good 10mins for our waitress to come since it was so busy. Our waitress was wonderful and made sure everything was to our liking. Definitely can't wait to come visit New York again just for this restaurant to try other dishes. We left full and so satisfied.

    Food, service, and wait times were all solid across the board. Nothing felt rushed or dragged out. It all came out at a nice pace. The food itself tasted great, not overdone or heavy, and portions were just right. The Thai iced tea especially hit the mark. Water was filled quickly. Only real downside was the noise situation. There seemed to be a birthday celebration every 10 minutes, and each one came with the same loud music blast and the same birthday song on repeat. It kind of breaks the flow of the meal after a while. Once in a bit is fine, but it felt like it was on a loop. Limit it to 1 hour minimum between celebrations.

    Really good food. Liked everything we got: crab Rangoon, Thai chicken wings, grilled skirt steak.

    Shrimp Pad Thai with Glass Noodle
    Rafik C.

    Saw the good reviews, took a chance and ordered via Doordash. Delivery was super fast! I was totally blown away by the quality of the food. Super fresh, authentic Thai cuisine. I had the Thai Chicken fried rice and my wife had the Shrimp pad thai that with glass noodle done perfectly well. Top Thai definitely lives up to its name!

    New York's cutest Thai place hands down. The decor of this place was so well thought out. It's packed with college kids and locals. It does get loud and a little tricky to talk. It's great for large parties. They have an amazing happy hour with huge drinks. The food comes out quickly and is packed with flavor and presentation is on point. Reservations are necessary unless you are lucky enough to get a spot at the bar.

    It was a good Thai restaurant which is Halal. The wait can be long but worth it. The dishes are delicious but portions are small. Well it is in NYC so you cannot complain about it though. The atmosphere is vibrant and cheerful. Overall worth to check out.

    Pad See Ew with Skirt Steak and Basil Udon with Chicken
    Tasnim C.

    My favorite Thai spot in nyc! I used to go to their original location, but this one is significantly bigger. It's so cozy and cutely decorated too! We got the early bird special, which our server told us that it would be less than the full-sized entree. It was soo much for us! Lol way too much food but no complaints and I appreciate her trying to look out for us. I got the basil udon, which never disappoints. My husband got the pad see ew with skirt steak and it was so good! The early bird special also comes with an appetizer and drink, and is a good value. The service was great as we kept getting our water refilled and were checked on frequently. I love Top Thai and will always come back!

    This is solid casual sit down table order or take out affordable traditional Thai food Resturant with amazing food and a very extensive menu. Service was excellent with all dishes served at perfect time and water filled regularly and extra attention. I was surprised to not see my favorite noodle dish Pad Kee Mao on the menu and inquired. The very accommodating excellent waitress pointed out that one of the bitches was Poki, but served with udon noodles and then I could substitute out for the big fat wide rice Noodles (or even Glass Noodles). The glass noodles sounded delightful, but I wanted a traditional Noodles. Oh my goodness these are the best big rice noodles I've had such a long time. They were so so thick and cooked perfectly! It had green beans eggplant and That basil and a perfect spice and served piping hot. My husband also had a special order because he's on low sodium diet and they accommodated him with the steak and steamed fries and salad. My daughter is a regular here and always gets the fresh rolls with tofu and the tom yum soup with chicken substituted for shrimp which she loves. The only criticism I have is the cleanliness of the walls and cabinetry in the bathroom area and right outside of the kitchen. Makes me wonder a bit about the kitchen.. When we come to visit, our daughter, will be regulars at Top Thai!

    Calamari Salad and Duck Curry
    Christina L.

    One of the best restaurants for large groups of people imo! Came here with a reservation for a group of 7 on a Monday night and the service was amazing. Water was always full, never had to flag anyone down, waiters were friendly and hilarious. My friend and I split 1 starter and 1 entree and we were stuffed. The crispy calamari tasted incredibly fresh, tangy, and savory and I would definitely order it again. The Panang curry with duck was amazing as well, and the portion of duck meat was huge. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their dishes + their mango sticky rice when it's in season!

    Pad Thai Lunch (Beef) Thai Green Salad Cherry Temple
    Austin L.

    This is one of the few halal-friendly Thai spots in NYC so I took my Muslim friend for a lovely lunch here to try their food and new cocktails! The new cocktails for their happy hour in 2026 are the Espresso Martini, Caribbean Kiwi, and Fruit Punch Martini. All 3 were quite good! I also liked their rich and creamy Thai Iced Tea and their mocktails. The Rose Margarita and The Ocean are pretty and nice for a photo or video. We tried the Appetizer Platter and we chose to do the Grilled Skirt Steak with "Jeaw Sauce". Crab Rangoon, and Crispy Basil Roll. The steak was cooked a nice medium-rare and was yummy. The Basil Udon with Crispy Duck is their very popular noodle dish here which I liked. I just don't like bamboo shoots so next time I'd ask them to take it out of the dish. The Shrimp & Crab Meat Fried Rice was packed with fresh shrimp and crab. The Whole Fish Red Snapper with 3 Flavors Sauce blew me away. It's very crispy, boneless, and flavorful. For dessert, we got the new Pandan Toast Bread with Ice-Cream. It was sweet but comforting. You will get incredible service and feel like you're in the streets of Thailand once you're seated here. Shoutout to our server Muay who was very kind and attentive. It's big inside and they have a really nice and clean bathroom area.

    Been here again few time before and post lunch menu changes (went from $16 to $19) The lunch special is NOT particularly a great deal. Previously as early as 3 months ago, it used to be $16 for an app ( spring rolls, clear soup or side salad) and entree. Then it would be $1/$2 add on for soda or tea/thai tea/Shirley temple etc. Now. Its $19 flat price for the app/entree/"free" drink which includes boba tea as an option if desired. The deal isn't really a great deal as the portions are small and there is the same add on prices for proteins other than veggie/tofu. (Ie: grilled steak is $6 so the lunch special would end up being $25) Flavor is alright. It can be a bit saucy / salty but portion size for the pricing is really the bummer. Desserts are ALL $17 (ie: ice cream scoop & chocolate cake (similar to apple bees cake) is $17). Candles are $3 extra. There is NO more "free" dessert for birthdays that previous customers have noted. If you bring a cake to cut, it is $3 surcharge fee per person add on. You can waive the fee if you buy a dessert. Overall, there are better lunch specials around the neighborhood. If you take a look at the various lunch pictures I've posted, you will see the portions are pretty small for the value. Would not recommend for first intro to thai.

It delivered on both fronts, but I really was blown away by the wine. The sheer quantity of available wines is really impressive, and the sommelier was able to recommend a rare wine that fit our interests (a fantastic, effervescent, creamy Txakoli that had lovely fruit and minerals). Later, I tried amazing ice cider. The food rundown: -Sesame pizza Bianca: complimentary bread! This was very good and quite sizable. The bottom is entirely encrusted with sesame. -Scallop crudo (rhubarb, shiso): very good and the plating was gorgeous. Meaty scallops with tangy and pungent flavors. -Snowdance chicken (spinach, sherry, thyme): Super tender, crispy-skinned chicken in a savory sherry sauce. -Sea bass (asparagus, hollandaise): I was surprised at how remarkably well this dish worked. The asparagus was so good with the rich, buttery sauce. Definitely a smaller portion, but the chicken was huge so it balanced out. -Potatoes with ramps: Yum. Served hashbrown-style and the ramps were added as little sauce dollops. I loved the space, and by that I mean the ambience and also the literal amount of space we had to ourselves. We got to stretch out in a roomy corner booth. The room featured a lot of exposed brick and grey and utilitarian ceilings, but it manages to be cozy all the same.

We came in on a Friday evening and it was pretty quiet inside. After we were sat down upstairs, it took a long time for our waitress to come to take our order. We got the Butterscotch flip, Getaway driver, and Big trouble. These drinks were not it. Although the prices are okay($19 each), they definitely need some improvement. All three had very strong flavors that were not balanced with the rest of the drink. After we finished our drinks, we waited an especially long time for the waitress to come back, check on us, and give us our bill. It was especially frustrating because we were the only ones in the bar at this point and we could hear them chatting downstairs. Overall, both service and the drinks need improvement. Can't really recommend Split Eights over other cocktail bars around.
