Theresa RoldanApril 3, 2016Great food & very accommodating. I had the Spicy Noodles and Thai Iced Tea - both were delicious! The noodles weren't only mildly spicy. My friends got a few curry dishes and seemed to love every bite
Sarah SpagnoloDecember 28, 2014Thai tofu with vegetables and ginger sauce. I come after a movie at BAM. Affordable, with many options on the menu.
Keron JonesAugust 7, 2014I go here for the lunch specials. Try the pad thai noodles lunch special with your choice of chicken or shrimp and 2 spring rolls with some bomb sauce. Your taste buds will thank you!
Gianna NebbiaNovember 10, 2017Awesome lunch options- you get an app and entree for $10.95. You can also get takeout and they’re so quick.
What’s good: spicy noodles, pad see ew, all the curry, pad kraprow, tom kha, Thai iced tea. I eat here all the time and it’s always good.
Sarcastic TanishaMarch 8, 2015Love this spot... Kinda small but the drinks and food make up for it.. Try the curry puffs omg and the mango martini is the best.. Food is delicious
Beril EsenSeptember 30, 2017Go for the delicious spicy noodles with a good portion. I wasn't too fond of koong kratiam: the sauce was too watered down and the portion seemed small. Mango salad tasted normal.
Eating their shrimp fried rice while I type this! Love their quick to-go service. Small and quaint. Good food. Good service. CASH ONLY.
Daniel BarnettDecember 9, 2014Really good the first few times you go at a very reasonable price point. Then things start tasting the same. Just don't get to that point.
Sylvia LewisMay 28, 2013delish curried sauteed vegetables w/green sauce, Spring rolls, Thai iced coffee. good price, perfect location near subways. will return soon.
Saeeda QuansahAugust 10, 2015My friends, eat the Spicy Noodle. Don't fear the fire, draw closer to the fireplace of flavor and noodley goodness.
Jessie BeharOctober 3, 2018The Pad Thai is my absolute favorite! Calamari served fresh and shrimp dumplings as well!
CécileDecember 2, 2018This place deserves more love. Efficient, good, cozy and cheap. It's been here for ages.
Julie MorseJune 11, 2016Shrimp pad thai is a definite must!! Specially if you like peanut sauce on your rice noodles!
Ron FosterJanuary 27, 2016The food and pricing are always excellent. But the customer service can be improved. Waiter skills can be improved. Needs to be attentive to the needs of the customer. Other than this. I liked.
Maria MontesanoJuly 13, 2016Love the noodle dishes and the curries. Large portions and food comes quickly. CASH ONLY.
Faiza KanjiApril 18, 2014Mango salad is delish! Panang curry is great, ask for it with chicken instead of beef. Cash only.- Zuri DFebruary 1, 2012As Thai food goes its not bad, the portions r gr8, and the calamari is really good that is if "U" can find it! It has no sign! /L0l :)
- gai kraprow (chili basil chicken) stir fry with carrots, peppers, cabbage, and onion
Keith _September 8, 2013I've eaten here for years but after yesterday I will never return after witnessing them recycle uneaten rice. I couldn't believe it!
- fried vegetable spring rolls with sweet dipping sauce
Michael HarrisJanuary 29, 2019Fastest pick-up I’ve ever experienced, EVERY TIME. And it’s so good, love this place.
Mike FraiettaFebruary 2, 2012Great prices, good atmosphere, meh Thai food. If you have someone new to Thai food, this is a great beginner course.
HolidayMarch 25, 2018Spring rolls were the best I’ve ever had. Fruit punch is authentic blend of 5 juices.- spicy noodle with chicken flavored with chili and basil
Loren DomiliciJanuary 29, 2013Great food at a great price - a bottle of wine, appetizer, 2 entrees - less than $50!
Love my local Thai spot. Food is solid and the staff is sweet.
The curries like Massaman and Panang are pretty good. I always order spicy noodles. The Chicken Spring Rolls and Mango Salad are musts.
EVERYTHING! I’ve been coming here for 10 years now...Never disappoints...
My overall favorite restaurant in Fort Greene. Inexpensive and delicious.
Blossom MenezesSeptember 3, 2011excellent thai food. the masama was nice. they serve curry enough for 4 people....and the rice comes with the curry....
Trevor HillNovember 8, 2017Delicious fried chicken spring roll but the Panang beef curry not so much- woon sen glass noodles with chicken, egg, and vegetables
The specials are generally great. I'd they have the prawn skewers with peanut sauce, don't pass it up!
Solomon PropheteOctober 3, 2010This place is BYOB, great cheap Thai food...get the Grilled Skirt Steak with Garlic Sauce and Chinese Broccoli. So good...
Soulful Thai. Wonderful lunch spot. Just really delicious food.
- When they have the shrimp satay appetizer, definitely order it!
- Spicy Noodles are excellent mixture of traditional thai noodles w/ a western flare
Chicken pad-see-yue rules. Also, BYOB, though they do serve their own drinks now.
RDasheenb DOctober 21, 2017WILL NOT BE BACK. Party of color told to wait for table 2B cleared. Other party came in & took table being cleared. Host did not take control. Party of color asked to wait for another table. They left
Chris CostelloSeptember 13, 2014Pad see yue wasn't much for flavor, but add enough ground chili and you'll be okay. Cash only.
