Try the beef with chili. Wok-charred beef is tossed w/ kafir lime leaves & green beans, then bathed in a orange-tinted sauce of turmeric & Thai chilies. It’s one of our #100best dishes & drinks 2011. Read more.
It's a consensus: Ratchaburi Pork and Crab Noodles is their best dish! I actually go there for there just for this dried noodle dish alone! ;9
More heavy-handed w/ fish sauce in dishes & more authentic than most dishes @ Americanized Thai joints. My faves: Fried fish cake app, Veggie Pad Thai, & Mixed vegetables w/ tofu.
Crab pad Thai is unique and have lots of crab chunks on top. On the pricier side though but expected ($15)
Amazing food from northern Thailand, not your traditional and overdone noodle and curry dishes. Papaya Salad and beef skewers in coconut milk are a must!
Second best egg on a meal I've ever had- dish is the "quack and kale". Comparable to the egg+mushroom pizza at ABC Kitchen
They're stingy w/ it but ask 4 Jalapeño vinegary sauce-instead of sweet soy sauces-to offset oiliness of fried Chive pancakes (like turnip cakes from Canto dimsum)
Luak Jim (app: mix of steamed seafood cakes/ balls w/ spicy seafood sauce), Pad Pukk (chicken w/ veggies in oyster sauce w/ over-easy egg on rice. Request less sesame oil) are also my MUST-try's!
Rib Eye Beef Combo (w/ spring roll & salad) here is my fave rice bowl in the area!
Authentic Thai noodle joint! Pad Thai done right! Dip Jalapeño sauce w/ Chive pancakes. Tom Yum Bolarn (soup noodles w/ minced pork+fish balls) + Pork Kaprow w/ overeasy egg on rice are MUST-try's!
Pad Kee-Mao, Massaman curry, & Crab Meat Fried Rice, & (2) Spring rolls app are okay. No to frozen & reheated Edamame & (heavily fish-sauced) Vegetable soup apps.
Damn good Thai food with a specialty in seafood-focused dishes. Crab Curry and Crab Fried Rice are outstanding and loaded with a ton of crab. Dollar oyster happy hour is great too. WinstonWanders.com
Best Isan Thai food in Midtown E. Stars are Ground Chicken w/ Fried Egg, basil, garlic, & chili over rice; Egg noodle soup w/ roasted pork, lump crab meat, & yu choy + Crispy pork belly salad.
A very relaxed and low-key restaurant with a menu catering to Northern Thai specialties. This is truly a treasure in Midtown West- fair prices with amazing food. We love the Kana Moo Krob.
Pad Thai, good pricing for New York. Has a hole in the wall feel, but still fixed up. Would come back!
Cozy spot that cooks up authentic flavor without standard greasy American Thai takeout fare. Tom yum noodle soup is well worth a try with spinach egg noodles!
Beautiful decor, great tasting food! Do try pandan leaves chicken, Pad thai & Tapioca dumplings. For vegetarians they use oyster/fish sauce,pls check with server to modify :)
Be sure to check out the daily special & eat at the counter, as its open kitchen is a delight to observe. Menu favorites include Hanin Chicken over garlic rice, Thai sausage and Thai BBQ chicken.
My fave Thai in Manhattan only 2 blks away w/ “spicy” (request) & distinct LOVEs: Up Spring Rolls, Pad Thai, Jeed Jard Noodle Soup, Krapow Gai Sub, Kao Nar Gai, to name a few...
And a few more.. Massaman Curry, Lemongrass Pork Chop, Kway Tiew Gai Noodle Soup, Fried Rice Clay Pot, Mango Mousse Cake (w/ Mango Sorbet)
New UES Thai gives Up Thai some competition! The HITS: Good Thai iced-T (ask 4 less milk); tender, juicy & tasty BBQ Pork Skewers (liking Spicy Tamarind sauce); great heat & flavor in Pad Prik King
The MISSES/WIP: Fried Chive pancakes were a tad oily; Pad Thai (w/ fresh seafood)-good noodles w/ fresh seafood-lacked spice+flavors of a good Pad Thai. Lkg fwd to trying hard-to-find Mee Grob dish.
This place has the same feel as Tiny Thai and M-thai and taste the same. The Sukho Noodle Soup is basically tom yum noodle soup with lots of different toppings.
