Exceptional thai food. Everything was super tasty and I loved that they had some more unique items on the menu. I've never seen raw seafood on a thai menu and it was in the papaya salad and I loved it. The raw shrimp and crab were high quality and super delicious. The fried branzino was very delicious and crispy and the sauce was great. The duck curry was good as well. The curry puffs are good but not stand out. My least favorite item. Thai coffee pretty sweet. I would definitely come again. A little salty and $$ but super delicious. read more

Wondee Siam is a busy Thai storefront with music that was unfortunately just loud enough to notice the entire meal and wonder if someone could turn it down a touch. The menu is extensive, but has photos to help you choose a meal if you are unfamiliar with any option. Expect basic Thai offerings with ado is on presentation for each dish. read more

Check your receipt!!!!! Came for dinner and when it was time to pay the bill, the waitress comes over with the credit card machine but doesn't give me a bill and just takes my credit card and says it is auto 20% tip (I came with a group of 5 people). She hands me the machine and it's at the signature stage already. After I ask for a receipt just so I could make sure everything is correct and that is when I see the workers taking time to enter stuff into the credit card machine and she comes back over with the receipt with a total of $279.14 and the tip is 24% instead of the 20% that she said. I tell them and they end up correcting the bill and keep claiming they don't know what happened but it is clear they entered in their own tip!! They ended up charging me $269.14 which is the correct total after 20% tip. I just checked now to see what the original charge was for and it was $322.97!!! So they actually originally charged me $322.97, then made a receipt saying that it was for $279 when the total should been $269! They tried to scam me an extra $53!!!! Please ask for a receipt when you eat here. read more

While in town for the day I came in for a late lunch. The staff were all nice but especially Emmy our waitress. She was polite, knowledgeable and helpful on suggestions. We made it in time for lunch specials. My friend and I ordered the red curry, shrimp with mixed vegetables and shrimp pad Thai. We ordered chicken satay for an appetizer. Everything was shareable so it worked out perfectly. Definitely will go again read more

Visiting from Chicago and got this recommendation from a friend and it was good! The papaya salad was just the right amount of spice and the drunken noodle was good and spicy. Just know medium spice is a little spicier than usual. The Thai tea was really good and not like other places. I liked how we came in during lunch hour and they had specials going in. The staff were really nice and the ambiance inside was so cute. Would definitely come back. read more

This is one of my top 3 Thai places in Hell's Kitchen! I really like their food and service. The servers are very quick and friendly. They give great recommendations and are very knowledgeable about the menu. The vibe is minimal, bright and clean. There isn't any music in the background so it's easy to chat with your party. However, I wish they had a full liquor license because they only server beer, wine and sake based cocktails for alcoholic beverages. Their bottles of wine aren't too expensive so I often buy them by the bottle. There are no reservations unless you are a party of 6 or larger, but I usually walk in as a group of 4 or less and are able to sit within 10-20 minutes at it's busiest. They do a really good job at the basics like pad thai, pad se-Iew and pad kra prow(spicy). I really like their beef noodle soup because it is very flavorful and has a nice spice kick to it. I also enjoy their khao soy (curry soup with noodles). I think their chef specials with crispy marinated pork are overcooked and very chewy, but not crispy. read more

Relatively busy when we came in but we were seated quickly. The tables are bit tight together but we managed. Sadly I was basic and ordered the pad Thai with shrimp but it was delicious and the meal really hit. It was flavorful, warm, and nicely presented. Service was ok, I wish they had come by with water more often, but they were busy. I'd like to come back and be more adventurous surrounding the menu next time I visit. read more

Loved this place! The Thai food was so delicious and we asked for it extra spicy. WOW. They certainly fulfilled that request. The garlic prawns were my favorite dish by far. They were so good. I would have eaten 4 plates of them, easy. Papaya salad was authentic and spicy! My part was mostly Thai, so I took their word for it. They ordered all the best dishes and were also impressed. The whole fish was crispy and fresh and also a table favorite. The inside is spacious enough for an NYC eatery and the location is good. I will return to this place, as it has some pretty awesome Thai food. read more

Excellent Thai food at a reasonable price We stopped by Wondee Siam in Manhattan for several times in 2025. On each visit the food was consistently excellent - flavorful, fresh, and well-presented. We hope to return next time we are in the area. Food ordered Tom Kha Gai (Coconut milk Soup with Chicken) - excellent! Papaya Salad - refreshing Thai Salad - very plain; unmixed vegetables, passable. Red Curry with Chicken - delicious! Pad Thai - excellent Pad Woon Sen (Glass Noodles with Beef) - tasted delicious, with a sauce that added an interesting touch. The beef was a little chewy though. Beef with Cashew Nuts and Vegetables - very fresh, but could use a bit more spices for richer flavor. Chives Pancakes - a bit too oily and overly fried on the outside, yet slightly undercooked inside. Duck Panang Curry - perfect. Richer in flavor than the Red Curry, with tender and juicy duck having a crispy crust. The dish was loaded with pineapple, making it slightly on the sweeter side. Pad See Ew with Chicken - excellent. Soft, silky noodles paired with tender, flavorful chicken. read more

Wondee would get 5 stars if it weren't so cramped and loud. It's hard to hold a conversation. But the food is terrific, and there are great options for those who like it spicy, and for those who don't. Also a lot of vegetables here, which isn't always the case at Thai restaurants. read more

Great flavors and unique dishes. Found it hard to choose what to get as there were a lot of interesting dishes that I wanted to try. Went with the crab fried rice, duck gra pow, shrimp cake and curry puff. I should note I did take out and not dine in, so textually and temperature wise would be different when served inside. Shrimp cake was alright, interesting texture, thought it might have been fish cake. Didn't really taste a lot of shrimp. Curry puff with the sweet tangy sauce was one of my favorites. Great potato flavor. Crab fried rice was ok, it didn't stand out to me much, and the crab meat was a bit dense/chewy. I had a crab shell in mine as well, it's bound to happen when eating crab. Duck gra pow was another favorite of mine. Flavor wise it was pretty good! Very saucy, a bit on the salty side which I like. The duck meat was a bit hard, maybe a tad bit overcooked, but I still found it really enjoyable. Inside has a number of seating, a bit on the darker side with lighting. Staff was super friendly. I was looking at the menu out front and they came a couple times to check on us if we wanted to eat in. The wait was not long at all, food was served within a few minutes of us placing the order Overall not bad, I hope to eat there again but dine in next time instead of takeout. read more

I was excited to try Thai Food, and heard Wondee Siam was the place to go! We came here with no reservation, but were able to organize a table for seven in ten minutes. The place is decently sized with lots of seating. Our server was great and helped us with our large order and pick out top dishes. We got a variety and they all came out quick! My favorites were the Pad Thai noodles and steamed veggies. Their papaya salad was also good, and Tom Yum tangy without it overpowering anything. The pineapple fried rice was also great and simple. The Pla Rad Prig fish was great, but slightly too saucey, I would maybe try another type. I couldn't find the catfish in the catfish salad, was it fried underneath? Otherwise I had a great experience and service always checked in on us. read more

The food here is pretty good. I had a pork dish with string beans, and the pork was a bit chewy and the string beans were a bit undercooked, but it was still tasty. I also tried some of the minced pork which was much better. I will say both dishes had a pepper to signify 'spicy', and the minced pork had a tiny bit of spice, but the pork with the string beans had no spice whatsoever. My biggest complaint here is the service/billing. Our server wasn't the most enthusiastic about anything, and didn't really check on us the entire meal. And then when our bill came, two of the three dishes were $1 more than what was listed on the menu. $2 isn't the end of the world but that's an extremely shady practice. read more

This Thai place was pretty busy on a Saturday evening. We put our names down and came back. Wait was not too bad. We got a corner table for the four of us.

Hell's Kitchen has a lot of Thai restaurants, but Wondee Siam is one of my preferred options. They have a wide menu with lots of entrees and I tried their Crabmeat Fried Rice which had so much lump crab meat and a generous portion of rice. I only wish it was a bit saltier, but I've tried other dishes here before which have always been super flavorful, so maybe today, there was just a different chef or a dash of more salt missing. It was still good though! The appetizer I had was the Fried Chicken which is basically chicken wings but it was still really crispy and served with a sweet chili sauce. The servers refilled our waters often and checked in on how the food was. When the bill came out, they almost accidentally charged us for an extra drink, but we let them know and they apologized! The tip on the tablet starts at 20% which I think is a little high. Most places still keep tip between 15-18% as the minimum, so I wish they changed the options. The inside is spacious and for a Saturday evening, it got packed quite fast. There is also just one bathroom, but it's really clean! read more

3.5/5 rounded up. Nice ambiance in here! Heard that their catfish salad was popular, it was refreshing and very unique! Would recommend getting it. Also got their satay, duck tamarind, and pork yum bbq. Thought the duck tamarind sauce was a bit salty, but I liked the pork yum bbq and how they balanced it with cucumbers. Ended the meal with mango sticky rice! read more

I really enjoyed the food here. We were a big party and we ordered a bunch of different things. We ordered about 13 dishes and everything was good no complaints. The food is leaning a tad towards the sweet side. This place is very busy so it's wise to make a reservation or make plans to go in advance and put your name on the waitlist. The service was just alright. The restaurant is busy so it seemed like they were scrambling, but the food did come out on time. read more

I was craving some good pad thai, so I decided to check Wondee Siam out. Service was fantastic-- everyone was super friendly. Ambiance was very casual but clean and modern. Pad thai: 10/10 (great pad thai. Noodles were cooked well and def weren't overcooked, which I find to be the case in a lot of other places. Sauce was very flavorful-- not too sweet, which is the way I like it.) Overall, I had a great experience. I'll def be back to try out their curries and other dishes next time! read more

Came by with a friend for a weekend lunch on a whim since we were in the area - we saw pretty good reviews online and there wasn't a queue, so we decided to give it a try. (I've walked by a few times before and it seems they can be pretty busy at peak hours, so we probably got lucky). I liked the clean and refined interior decor throughout - the place was fairly large, but they did manage to fit Quite a lot of tables, so it was a little bit squished between our table and our neighbours. Random observation was also that this was one of the few Thai restaurants I've been to in NYC with lots of Thai-speaking clientele, which is always a good sign! haha My friend and I ordered the catfish salad and the pad kaprow (minced pork with basil). Catfish salad was SO good. I was not expecting the catfish to come out in that ... shape? or texture?? but it was a pleasant surprise. The salty fish paired really well with the mango, lime juice, and fish sauce flavours. Minced pork was a little bit more meh. It was good, but not great - I didn't really feel that the natural aromas of the basil or the savouriness of the pork really came through, and I wish it had been spicier (!). Price point was fine.. but I think it was a little pricey for the portion sizes (and the bowl of rice was disproportionately small lol). In any case, still a great experience overall and it seems that they have so many more delicious dishes to try next time! I'll definitely try to come back soon read more

Overall: 4.3/5--rounded down, although I debated rounding up Value: 4.2/5 Service and speed: 4.5/5 Taste: 4.2/5 I arrived at the restaurant just before 5pm and it was already quite packed. By 5:30PM there was a line in the foyer, so come early! The restaurant is somewhat small but elegant appearing. Menu is pretty large and they are quick to take your order and bring out food. I had the key mao noodles (drunken noodles) and the khao soi. As someone who has visited Thailand, I felt that the key mao noodles were some of the best in the world. They really know their way around fried noodles. The Khao Soi was a bit disappointing which I should have known that Northern Thai cuisine was not their specialty but I was craving it anyways. I would come back here for more fried noodles or to try their curries. Skip the khao soi. read more

Little wait to be seated without reservations on a Monday night. We got some apps and I liked the papaya salad. Chicken satay was ok. I am not biggest fan of chicken satay in general. I got the steamed whole fish, Branzino. It was in a lemon type dressing but I also noted some garlic in it as well. I am sure if it came with garlic as I had asked the waitress if I can have the garlic vs lemon and she said it would taste better with lemon. Alas, it arrived with lemon and garlic. So not sure if fish was made with my personalization. Eitherway it was very delish and came out super fast. We laughed because normally steam fish would take a while to prepare. My friends ordered the chicken basil dish and I was well on my way eating my fish before their chicken even came out. Like it was took a ridiculous amount of time for their chicken to come out vs my whole steamed fish. I massacred that fish tho. If it wasn't dead after being killed, not dead after being steamed, it certainly was dead after I got done with it. Lol. I would Def get that again. The fried fish is apparently good too but I was trying to stay away from a meal made with tons of oil. Ambiance was good. Nothing too romantic. Not too loud. Casual dress style. read more

[Food] - Shrimp Tom Yum Soup ($8/small): A bit pricey for a small soup, but was pretty good. Very flavorful and has lots of ingredients in it. Can definitely tell they made this in house instead of using store bought powders as I'm quite familiar with the tastes. - Yum Woon Sen ($18): I really liked this dish especially because this tastes really close to what I had in Thailand. Just the right amount of citrus, spice, and flavor! We got this in medium spicy and it was a decent heat for us so maybe we'll get mild next time. Despite the heat, I still couldn't stop eating it. I also really liked that they added so much noodles instead of salad. Most places barely give you noodles. - Pla Gra Tiam ($40): We were recommended this dish by the staff and although it's good, we can't say we enjoyed it since we wanted a curry dish instead. That was our fault and we should've just ordered what we initially wanted [Service] - Friendly, attentive, helpful [Ambiance] - Casual, bright, cutely decorated [Overall] - Would come back for the Yum Woon Sen and to try their curry dishes! read more

I absolutely love this place. They literally can do no wrong. Service is phenomenal & food is phenomenal. The ladies who work here are super warm and efficient. You put your name down on a piece of paper with your party size and they'll call your name. Don't be deterred by the list of names, they're pretty quick with turning parties around in their decent sized space. My favorite dish is the pad thai with tofu, sooooo flavorful and caramely and the perfect amount of eggs and peanuts! Also highly recommend the go chai, pad gra pow, crispy pork & chinese broccoli, and any of the duck dishes!!! read more

One of the better thai restaurants I've been to in NYC. I lived in Thailand for a bit and the food here definitely rivals what I'd find in Thailand. Overall, the space is incredibly clean. I like how it's bright and inviting and noticeable from the outside. Our waitress was incredibly knowledgable and recommended some great dishes. The food came out pretty quick and packed with flavor. For NYC, the portions are slightly above average. The dishes also don't leave you feeling super heavy. I loved how light the salads were and the sauce on the minced chicken was so delicious. I definitely want to come back and try as many dishes as I can! read more

The service was impeccable. The food was very good, I had tofu coconut vegetables soup, shrimp cakes, Penang curry roast duck. The mild was still a little spicy but that was alright. The only negatives were crowded tables and super high acoustics volume. It was disturbing. Restaurants need to pay attention to that and try to mitigate, they could put acoustic absorbing tile on the ceilings. Wheelchair accessible but no room in the aisles to move much. read more

Wondee has upped their game in real estate, with a new place just down the block from the original. Pros: -cute aesthetic -more servers -a bathroom!

I never thought to have a small and sheek resto be where I would have my best taste of Thai food. Thai food is my favorite ethnic cuisine, and I've eaten at many Thai restaurants, but this by far is the best one I have tried.

But the vibes here were so authentic, and homey. The food is packed with flavor. The crispy basil pork is a must!!! Added chicken to the pad se-eew, and it was so smokey, blended amazingly with the sweet noodles. The thai iced tea was perfection, not too sweet and pairs so well with any dish. I highly recommend.

I came with a party of 4 on a Saturday and the wait time was 15 minutes. Interior is beautiful a bit cramped with the workers busing the tables but that's to be expected in NY. I ordered the chicken satay and soft-shell crab with chili oil sauce. I regret getting the satay, pretty unremarkable I expected better flavors. However, the soft-shell crab was amazing, crispy, spicy, slightly sweet. I thought it was BYOB but they received a liquor license. We ended up getting drinks since the prices were very reasonable. Th white sangria was a nice fruity sweet drink, and I love the fruit bits, a bit heavy on the ice though. It is a very busy restaurant so can't really take your time, felt like I was being rush out. I'm not sure I was wowed enough to want to return, not a bad place to eat. read more
