  1. Next time you are thinking of having Thai, dont settle for the place down the street when you can have the finest meal for the best price.

Great decor, good lunch specials

by Yasmine Deetjen , Citysearch Contributor

This place is very very romantic in ambiance, so it would be ideal for a first date. In the warmer months the dining area is extended in to the outback as they open the patio area, where you can sit in a pretty scenery to enjoy your meal.

The Thai orange color* iced tea is AMAZING!!!!!

The staff is very nice and attentive, which definitely draws you back to come again.

One caveat, its a little bit pricey in comparison to other Thai restaurants in the neighborhood, however to be in that tranquil environment is well worth it.

Also they must have had a very creative decorative team- the menus come in Compact Disc cases, how neat is that!

  • Pros: Chicken Pad thai!
  • Cons: A bit on the pricey side in comparisson to competitors

BY FAR THE BEST THAI IN MANHATTAN

by Thai Enthusiast NYC

Whether it is your first or 100th time, you will find yourself coming back to this Thai jem in Manhattan anytime you want the best Thai food. I recently stumbled on this Thai food mecca one saturday morning, having never heard of it and was amazed by the entire experience. This is not your average Thai restaurant, it is the best Thai you will ever eat. I went with the steamed vegetable dumplings with a spicy black soy sauce, then had their traditional Chicken Pad Thai with extra peanuts. Next time you are thinking of having Thai, dont settle for the place down the street when you can have the finest meal for the best price. this review is written by a true New Yorker, born and raised and is meant to lead you to the finest places in our amazing city.

  • Pros: Delicious well priced authentic Thai food, friendly service
  • Cons: NONE

Great Little Trendy Thai Place

by qtgurljny

Just what the neighborhood needed, a charming little Thai place that you'd want to eat out instead of just take out. Luscious thai is tiny but trendy with sort of red mood lighting. All the entrees here are under $20 and because it's relatively new, it doesn't get that packed during dinner hours just yet. Wine selection is so so but, the beer selection is better. Food however, is great. Charming place to try if you live in the neighborhood. My favorite is the spicy basil beef fried rice.
