Great Food great service. I first went here with my boyfriend and it has become our restaurant to eat in. We love going here and everytime we go we are never disappointed. The food is great the prices are great. The service is great and the whole atmosphere is very calm. The Tom Hka Gai Soup is great. esp if u love coconut. My boyfriend always gets the chu-chee chicken. even though we promise to try something new everytime we go .. he just cant help it. and the big birds love nest is one of m y favs that i would say to have.. plus u can eat the whole nest also..

Great Restaurant.

best value thai in theater district. Prices are quite modest for midtown. Nice clean family place. The food was ok, not the best I have had, but for the price you pay for lunch, it is ok. Pad thai was good, the thai ice tea the highlight of my meal. SUM IT: affordable & good variety of selections. Try it, same price as one of McDonald's value meal!!

Best Authentic Thai food I've fnd in NYC. I've tried quite a few, I keep coming back to this one. Very authentic and really EXCELENT food. The atmosphere is like or a little better than most typical NYC Thai sit-downs, pleasant enough to invite friends or a casual date but it's not a swanky first date type of place.

If you find anything as good or better for authentic Thai food (plenty of good fusion places too) please put it in your review.

Best Pad Thai in the city!. This is a great find near Times Square -- decent prices, and one of the best Pad Thais I've ever had (they don't scrimp on the shrimp -- jumbo, not teeny)!

Pretty decent thai place by Times Square. Every New Yorker knows that a decent, affordable restuarant in Times Square is hard to find. Luckily, we all have Pongsri. It's spacious and the service is good. The food itself is enjoyable. Believe me, it is a lot better than some of the other restaurants in the heart of Times Square like Pasta Break!

WONDERFUL!. We were just in the city for a day, and asked a local security guard what he would recommend for a good Thai restaurant. We were so happy that he sent us here! We asked Tina, our hostess, for her favorite dish, and for the most authentic Thai dish they had...Her response was "Any of the curry", and we were not disappointed! The shrimp were tender, and the curry is far more complex, flavorful and mild than any Indian-style curry... We were delighted! The staff was very friendly, and taught us to say "cheers" in Thai... Sounds like "Chai-yo". Overall, we truly enjoyed the experience.

Excellent!!. Great Thai at a great price. The Big Bird's Love Nest was incredible. Service was fast and pleasant. I would skip dessert next time - the coconut mango custard wasn't great.

Always Reliable. I'm actually shocked that this isn't being rated higher than it is. This is my favorite Thai restaurant in Manhattan and I have never had a problem with the food, service, etc. The prices are great relative to the portions you get. Believe me, you should be seated promptly, despite the theater crowds...Try the pad Thai.
