When in Bangkok

Great experience at When in Bangkok! The Zabb Wings were super flavorful and crispy. The Tom Yum soup was perfect for a cold day — warm and comforting. The cocktails were beautiful and delicious, and the Thai tea was a must. If you love duck, don’t miss the pineapple curry duck — such a great combination of sweet and savory. Highly recommend!

The food was a pleasant surprise! The fish was fresh and tender, with a refreshing kick from the lime and chili. The curry was rich and aromatic without being heavy, and the spices were well balanced. The meat dish was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Beautiful presentation and a cozy atmosphere — a great spot for dining with friends. Will definitely come back!❤️

Had a great lunch at When in Bangkok on Northern Blvd in Flushing. Even past lunch hours the restaurant was still filling up — definitely a good sign. Tried a few of their winter specials and signature dishes: Tom Yum Ramen Hot Pot: rich, aromatic, with just the right level of spice. Soft Shell Crab Karee: crispy soft-shell crab in a creamy curry egg sauce — comforting and delicious. Pineapple Curry Duck: my personal favorite!The roasted duck was tender, and the red curry with pineapple and basil had the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory. For drinks, we had the Cha Manao and the Passion Fruit Mojito, both refreshing and well-made. Bonus: happy hour cocktails are only $11 before 5pm!! Service was friendly, the vibe was great, and the food is absolutely worth coming back for — especially the pineapple curry duck. Highly recommend!

Honestly, consistently some of the best food in the area. The crab fried rice is a must try. The fish/garlic sauce they have with it is so flavorful, it's astounding. They also have a cocktail called Meet Me At Siam, that they seem to have discontinued which is unfortunate. Great strawberry smoothie cocktail! Could try asking for it, they probably would have the ingredients.

This place gets busy sometimes so I recommend you make a reservation. Food was very good, especially the jumbo shrimp pad thai and the duck. Their portions were a nice size. The tom yum soup was just okay. Atmosphere is a bit loud so it’s hard to hear sometimes but not terrible.
