Editorial Review for Song – by Kara Zuaro
The Scene
Song, the Thai word for "two," is Park Slope's sequel to Joya, a perpetually packed Thai spot in Carroll Gardens. The sister restaurants share identical menus and bear a striking family resemblance. Here, the slim bar area opens up to a spacious, streamlined, and bustling dining room. Industrial gray dominates the color scheme, but soft lighting warms the space and eclectic dance music (spun by a DJ on weekends) lifts the mood.
The Food
Inexpensive, large-portioned, Americanized Thai favorites are served up at lightning speed. A hearty helping of marinated beef tops a bed of lettuce, cilantro enhances a mild mango salad, and zesty sauce complements lightly battered calamari. The spicy broad noodles and green curry pack a punch and can be made spicier upon request, while copious bowls of pad thai and chicken in garlic sauce soothe more delicate palates. Desserts aren't offered, but the mango martini makes a sweet finale.

This is one of my all time favorite Thai places. The food is always hot and very tasteful. You must have the calamari salad. It is one of my all time favorite dishes. The drinks are strong but a bit pricey ($8 and up). Do not go on Thursday, Friday, or Saturday nights because I can guarantee you that you have to wait 30 minutes after 7pm. It is best to go in the afternoon or right after work.
Pros: Affordable and tasty food.
Cons: can get alittle cowarded.

I eat to Song anytime Im in the area. The food is amazing, fresh and it really is the best Thai food Ive ever eaten. The best part about the experience is the fact that you dont have to over-pay for delicious Thai. The decor and the atmosphere is that of a much more expensive restaurant except its really not expensive at all. I recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves fresh Thai food, really anyone who loves food in general. For those who havent tried Thai, this would be a great place to experiment.
Pros: Delicious & Fresh Thai at low prices
Cons: None
