I was here a few times before. If you are craving authentic Isaan food, then you are at the right spot! Delicious authentic isaan food and their Thai Iced Tea is great too! The waiters are very friendly as well. Highly recommend it! But be careful with the spice level!

As a Thai food lover, this place was amazing!!! We ordered a bunch, including the papaya salad, the rib eye steak, and their grilled fish. This place offers authentic northern Thai food so you know they won’t hold back with their spices! Papaya salad has a rly good kick to it so be aware but it has a a great balance between spicy and freshness. The rib eye steak was super juicy and tender and their grilled dish was also amazing/ super crisp and perfectly cooked. All of the dishes paired so well with rice and we ate it 🆙

Here’s a more natural, down-to-earth version: This little Thai place is honestly such a cute spot — the kind of restaurant that just feels cozy and welcoming as soon as you walk in. The food is the real deal, none of that watered-down stuff, it actually tastes authentic. My favorite has to be the Tom Yum shrimp soup — the broth is so well balanced, a little spicy, a little sour, and just really satisfying. Everything we tried had that same balance going on, which I really appreciated. The only thing I’d warn you about is the portions are on the smaller side, so definitely order more than you think you need. But honestly, the quality makes up for it. If you’re looking for a good authentic Thai meal in a cute little setting, this place is worth checking out.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Best Thai food I have had in the US. All other Thai restaurants are ruined for me. Eating The duck Larb was like a religious experience for my mouth. The spices, herbs, and sticky rice made the most exquisite of bites. Spice lovers should make a pilgrimage here when in NYC.

Very much liked the fresh vegetables here from the papaya salad to the morning glory and the fresh lettuce , mint, cilantro, and basil that accompanied the flavorful sides like larb. That is what makes this Thai place unique.
