T-Dog N.: Cute space. Byob for now. home made noodles. Friendly staff. Love the decor.
Deborah Au-Yeung: The real delicious deal. Addicted to papaya salad, chicken curry puffs and the duck noodle soup.
Time Out New York: 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.
nick antonelli: literally everything on the menu is a delight; a hole-in-the-wall hk gem with an authentic taste, cool atmosphere, & byob policy. what's not to love? I rock the pulled-pork quesadillas & chips/guac ~
matthew decristofaro: Such a great spot in HK! Byob is clearly amazing and the service is excellent. Pescato burrito is my fav!
Annie M: One of my fave restaurant in HK. Food is delicious, owner is friendly + it's BYOB. The fish taco is people's favorite, but I always get the Al Pastor and Alambre tacos. Don't forget the flan!

New York Habitat: Very small place with great flavor. Ask for the thai style basil chicken and bring your own beer for a great meal.
Steven Y: Get the crispy pork off the secret menu at this BYOB gem, and they provide a corkscrew if you need one; be prepared to wait though as there are only a few tables, but it's well worth it
Anissa: BYOB and secret menu! (Just ask for it) Everything we ordered was bomb! Start with the mieng ka na (spicy lettuce wraps) then get the fried pork basil and softshell crab with mango salad! 😛
dara lynne: AMAZING experience during "Fri Night Out". Super patient, fun staff and great guests. One of the best nights I've ever had in NYC. BYOB and enjoy. GO NOW!
The Corcoran Group: What looks like a run-of-the-mill pottery store is actually an amazing instructional pottery workshop. The instructors are patient, kind and amazing.
Olivia Landau: 1-time classes make for an interesting date! They're also a good way to tell if throwing clay would be a fun hobby to take up.

Jonathan Risk: This place is the best Ramen. Fresh noodles and the gyoza is bomb. They don't have Sapporo at this location but the staff mentioned I could go out and byob. Excellent service.
Nate Dorr: BYOB, convenient to MAD and Lincoln center, solid ramen in classic shared-counter arrangement. Nice!
Dan Sohayda: Very small 11 seat room. Stop at Whole Foods for a few beers and bring them along as it's BYOB. It's no Ippudo, but the ramen is good and at a more affordable price.
