    Great Thai food and drinks. You can tell that the staff wants to give great service and take care of you but they kind of do it with a little bit of chaos and slight bit of divergence from the task.

    Wang Bang Panang!!! I recommend coming hungry because they really feed you here. Great spot, reasonable prices, swanky cool atmosphere with Buddha Bar style music. I will be back for sure! :).

    No matter which location I decide to go to everything is always great! My favorites have to be the spring rolls for an appetizer and the drunken noodles for an entree

    Drunk man noodles 🍜 nicely spicy and tamarind crispy red snapper good. Coconut 🥥 milk soup is kind of plain however-- needs kick. I remember the one in Chelsea as better.

    The spicier the better! Green Curry is delicious. Sweet Basil anything can't go wrong. Basically you should eat stuff!

    Solid thai food for a good price. If you want to kick it up a notch (in price and quality), hit up Land nearby.

    This is a really good Thai restaurant and, just as important, the wait for a table is usually short even on weekends.

    Good appetizers and decent Pad Thai. Overall I'd give it a 7.5 out of 10 and somewhere to go if you ran out of options!

    My favorite thai place in NYC! Try the 6 o'clock train with chicken or phad thai!

    The duck lettuce wraps and pad thai are solid options. There is a small bar (4 seats) if you want to grab a drink or need to wait for a table.

    Is it as good as Land? Not to me, but that's a matter of preference. Different taste altogether, as regional thai cuisine often is. Variety is good.

    Very good although not as spicy as I hoped. I'm sure they would have turned up the heat though.

    Dinner was okay but the waitress was horrible. Really bad service. We should have just moved when we had a chance.
