“What an incredible find! I love Thai food and this is hands-down the best Thai restaurant in NYC. The entire staff was so friendly and accommodating and took great care to make sure we had a wonderful experience. Even the chef came out to greet us and make sure he got the spicy levels right for each of our dishes. I had the Pad See Ew with vegetarian duck, which was the best I have ever had. Highly recommend!!!!Vegetarian options: The vegetarian duck (in the pad see ew) is the best I have ever had!!“
“Went here last weekend to have lunch with our daughter who goes to St. Johns. Parked right on the corner (Metered ) no parking lot for those wanting to know. Mostly college crowd. Service was quick and good. Photos from others are the same as ours so i won't post. We would definitely go back again.“
“Small and friendly local Thai restaurant where service is attentive and the dishes are always flavorful and on point. Have ordered numerous menu options and the chef never disappoints. Highly recommend ?I would add a photo but it would just be of a bunch of very empty plates.“
“Went to Pata Cafe for lunch in Elmhurst, Queens, NY. Looking for authentic Thai? You'll find dishes here that are hard to find in the ??. NY Times and Michelin recommended for casual authentic Thai fare.Had Thai Lychee tea and Yum Woon Sen. Sweet and complex flavor for the tea. Spicy, tangy, earthy, and herby flavors for the dish. Too full for dessert! The wife had the beef soup.Only seats 12 people max. Cash or Venmo only. Lots of free street parking on a Saturday. Can't wait to go back!Dietary restrictions: Most dishes dairy freeParking: Found parking right in front immediately on a Saturday for lunch“
“No frill place. You choose your entrees over rice. 2 meats $15.50 3 meats $16. Just a great deal especially since the food is made fresh daily. So by the evening time the most popular dishes are sold out. I believe they switch up some of the meats monthly. Garlic pork and spicy ground pork are my go to’s. The space is clean and very cute during warmer weather. And the workers are always welcoming.“
“The best Thai food in NYC, and I’m NOT JOKING! Service is amazing, provided by servers who are upbeat and willing to make a conversation and advise. Food is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Please do yourself a favor and order fish and som tum Thai! It is the best salad you’ll have, spicy and crispy ♥️?? p.s. Thai tea is an absolute DREAM ✨“
“I have been craving nam khao tod since living in Europe where SE Asian food is fairly basic. This did not disappoint! They made it spicy as I requested and gave me more herbs/lettuce for free when I'd run out! Note it's cash only.“
“We were in the mood for some good drunken noodles. My wife found this place through Muslim foodie review. The ambiance, and atmosphere of the restaurant are pretty decent. We had a friendly young lady who approached us as soon as we entered the place. We knew what we wanted- drunken noodles and fried fish with papaya salad. However, our server told us the fried fish may take a minimum of 15-20 minutes to cook, with two kids with us, we didn't want to wait that long, so I ended up ordering the orange chicken. Both of our dishes were good and flavorful. Their price is also relatively reasonable. I also like the fact that they designated a small space for prayer. I would recommend this place.“
“Great price for what you get. I don't live around this area, and was just here to get the original chicken combo; but the fried chicken (see picture) looked really good, and I think it might be worth another trip back to try! The combo came with salad and soup as well that are not pictured - all very good.“
“First visit 11/05/2023: The sukhothai noodles are beyond amazing, the flavors are so fresh and my mind was blown away by the combination of sweet, sour, nutty, fishy, and umami flavors. Will definitely be coming back for more!Second visit 04/15/2024: Ordered sukhothai noodle bowl again as I loved it so much last time - I believe it was cold last time? This time it was served hot, which I didn't like as much. Recommend ordering with standard rice noodle btw (not vermicelli as shown in photo). Also tried my friend's pork blood broth noodle soup which I didn't like much, but might be an acquired taste, and really enjoyed the pork meatball skewer!Keeping 5-stars for excellent food and service!“
“Found my new favorite Thai restaurant. This is hands down the best Thai food ever! We ordered the Tofu Pad Thai, Tom Kha Soup, Chicken Satay, Snapper, Crabmeat Fried Rice and Thai Iced Tea. So delicious! Not only was the food amazing but the service was also amazing. Our server Jack was very attentive. We definitely recommend this place and will absolutely be returning soon to try other dishes!“
“The service was great, Tae was my server he helped me out everything. I like the chicken stay and the peanut sauce was so amazing all the meats section was organized and fresh. However we had time to stay 90mins but we got full before time’s up. Probably recommended and will go back again soon.“
“outstanding! you won’t find better drunken noodles on the streets of Bangkok! the place and proprietor or a little quirky but in a way that makes me think I’d find it endearing in both if I lived closer and could eat here often (and I would eat here very often!).. the thai iced tea is equally impressive.“
“Party at home isn't bad idea at all after ordering out from Ayada Thai. Everyone is happy with deep fried fish with mango salad on the side. We order 2 kind of sausage and both of them are delicious. Grilled beef we wanted medium rare but we got kind of rare, so we had to cooked more by ourselves. Papaya salad is just ok and a bit salty. I was disappointed on Ka Nom Jeen noodle (side dish) the noodles were too hard and too big, not like Thai style Ka Nom Jeen. My favorite dish was Koong char nam pra (row shrimp with spicy fish sauce) Overall, they did a good job.“
“Update: prices have increased. Menu changed a little. The vegetable dish I ordered had very little sauce. I wasn't pleased with the mixed broccoli.?I love the crab ragoon! So good.?thai ice tea is amazingMy favorite thai restaurant. Great ambiance & atmosphere. The owner is amazing, and the staff are attentive. Always a great time here and always leave this place very satisfied. I highly recommend the chive pancakes! The soups are delicious. The garlic pepper chicken entree is so delicious.I recommend everyone to come here for a true thai authentic food experience. The prices are reasonable. Street/ residential parking is easy to find around here as well.Love both dining inside & outside. Great music is playing in the background. I also love doing take outs here as well. Highly recommend.Vegetarian options: Options availableDietary restrictions: Options availableKid-friendliness: Kid friendly.Wheelchair accessibility: On ground floor.

“We have had dinner at this restaurant several times. The environment is very tasteful, the service is very good, and the various dishes are very exquisite in workmanship. We highly recommend this place and will stay here again if we come back to New York.“
“Such a great place. The food was amazing, the restaurant is nice and cozy, and the staff are great. The Massaman Short Ribs are a must try, and the Blue Rain is so refreshing.Special shout out to our server Darrow! He made the night very enjoyable for us.“
“The food here is fresh and delicious. Great portions without being overwhelming. The service was spot on. Everyone was so nice and attentive. Service was fast, friendly, and efficient. The atmosphere is warm and quant. I never write reviews but they were so impressive! Finally a spot that offers it all!“
“If you want to look for a new experience that will not disappoint you, it is to come eat Thai. We ordered chicken fried rice and pad Thai. In addition to appetizers, we ordered some chicken dumplins. The restaurant is small but the time we were here we saw many delivery people coming out visiting the store to enjoy the food. The price plus the quality and taste of food is worth it. The portion of their dishes seems great to share between two people and try each dish. It is worth highlighting that they have a very unique decoration with their chandeliers. and the waitress was always very attentive. This restaurant is a 10/10. If you are from the Sunnyside community or its surroundings you should come to this restaurant.“
“2nd time coming to this place. Leaving with satisfied tummy. They really deliver on the spice and their food always comes out tasty and hot.The location is small and nothing flashy, but love a yummy, quiet and affordable dinner. My go to Thai place in the neighborhood.“
“Generous portions, consistent great taste, and very affordable at $10-11 for most dishes! I've gotten their chicken drunken noodles and pad see ew and both have been very tasty and perfect for a cheap after-work dinner. The woman at the food truck is always friendly and the noodles are prepared fast, which is a plus.“
“Woooowwwwww…….!!!!!!!Such an amazing place and wonderful staff … and talking about the food which reminds me of the home food and it’s didn’t disappoint at all .. I loved the food so much that we almost ended up ordering so much of food and got full but overall great place and I can say I found a place I can trust around my place to be at.Thank you so much.“
“I've gotten food from here four or five times (mostly ordered out but dined in once) and have loved it every time! Really flavorful meals, generous portions, and friendly staff. They're really efficient with preparation time. Cute interior and a welcoming vibe. One of my new restaurant recommendations!“
“I went there for my friends birthday dinner and it was an incredible experience. The look of the restaurant is very chic and modern. The food and drinks were amazing and my servers Yuliza and Sahana were the sweetest people. Would definitely be back!“
“Just dropped by for the first time (embarrassingly) after a coworker recommendation, one of those places I've walked by 100 times and somehow never stopped it. And now it's going to be a regular in the rotation!I got their grilled chicken set (#2) and it was delicious - the chicken itself was amazingly well marinated and flavorful, the rice cooked perfectly to join with it - and man their sweet/mildly-spicy thai sauce they give you to go with it is pure heaven. The soup they give is very mild but pleasant. Their serving system felt slightly chaotic for a newbie, but it worked perfectly well, the woman working had a perfect memory and nailed people in order.Highly recommend!“
“Come visit New York. I want to eat mixed fermented pork. Someone just recommended this shop. So I ordered several menus. I have to admit that the fermented fermented pork at the restaurant is very delicious and the Thai salted egg salad has a perfectly mellow taste, but.. the papaya salad with crab and fermented fish and the Tam Mua are a bit too salty. Reducing the saltiness would be very good. But overall it's okay.“
“My friend and I had wonderful dinner at Na RATH Thai restaurant. We shared everything as Thai family styleDecoration is colorful, vibrant flowers and bustling. Surprisingly the ambient sound wasn't to loudDelish, authentic and flavorful Thai food. You can't go wrong with Thai food at this restaurant. Also, I love all decorative and garnishes all dishes with flowers. So creative and beautiful !The service was friendly, had excellent service minded and fastOverall everything we ordered was great. We finished the dinner with a piece of coconut chiffon cake and a piece green tea crape cakeI would suggest anyone when people ask me a good Thai restaurant in Queens“
“We were very excited to come here based off of recommendations and knowing the connections to the other establishments (the attic, tavern157).My recommendations would be to order a bunch of the shared plates because it’s barely enough for two people.The sampler platter was a good introduction to the food ( the moneybag dumplings was my favorite of the night).On a Monday night it’s not busy, which surprised me when I had to order a side of rice (not warm) that didn’t come with the shared plates.The atmosphere is nice, it’s Instagram ready, the staff are people pleasing, street meter parking was available and it’s a quick walk down a flight of stairs to the restaurant.Bathroom is clean and the food is decent. Maybe the food sat in the window a little too long, I felt the food could’ve come out warmer.I would come back.“
“Truly an excellent dining experience with a beautifully curated menu and all of the delicacies you’d expect. They make the steamed egg right in front of you and it tastes AMAZING!!! The speakeasy aspect makes it perfect for a quiet, elevated meal in a cozy setting/atmosphere. Non-pretentious, quality dining.“
“This place is just around the corner from where I live and we decided to try it. The place is very quiet, not too busy yet because this is new. We ordered like 6-7 types of dishes and we almost finish everything! The food tastes really good! The place is clean and the service is fast. I will recommend this place to everyone I know.“
“Recommended by a Thai friend for its authenticity and desserts. Was not disappointed. The food was so good I had to stop eating multiple times to enjoy the flavors. Service is amazing and it's a really cute place for lunch too. Definitely would come again.“
“Chang Pai Restaurant offers a delightful culinary experience with a diverse menu of authentic Asian cuisine. Manager Momotha ensures top-notch service and a welcoming atmosphere. The food is consistently delicious, and the staff is attentive. Whether you're craving traditional Thai dishes or exploring new flavors, Chang Pai is a must-visit dining destination.“
“Chachawan is an amazing Thai food restaurant you’ll absolutely love! Nancy is so helpful and when I am not sure of what I want to eat, she assisted me in choosing the right meal that never fails! Highly recommend the pineapple chicken. Great customer service from Nancy! You will be very delighted to have her serve you. Highly recommended Chachawan! You’ll never regret it! Amazing Thai food. Thanks Nancy for all your help!“
“Really enjoyed dining there!This place is a phenomenal Asian restaurant! Nice variety of options and veg options too. The service was super friendly , attentive and thoughtful.Loved the food and experience overall. Definitely worth a visit!“
“So glad that there is a local Thai place that opened up to compete with Tuk Tuk nearby. The ambiance is dimly lit, so it's easy to miss if you're just waking by. I've had the Roasted Duck Curry, Street Noodles, and Tom Yum Soup. The food at Rod Niyom is a bit more of the expensive side, but I still like to treat myself every once in a while here whenever I can. Service is attentive with the waitresses here.“
“Pata Paean is well known for having the most delicious boat noodle in NYC!!! Let's me tell you all, it is deserved its reputation. The tastes is very original, The moment that I sipped the broth from Numtok noodles (boat noodles), I felt like it already took me to Thailand. Not only that Tomyum noodle soup also other favorite one. I can't have enough those noodles. Also the service is in timely manner. All worker there are very friendly and attentive. I always love the music that they played as a background. Also the decoration represent the noodle shop in Thailand.10 out 10!!!!Recommend to all who love Thai's food and noodle. Also I recommend order the small bowl of boat noodles to experience more authentic version of boat noodles because in Thailand bowl noodles usually served in small bowl. Don't worry you can order more and more of course. I always order like 3 bowl. Very delicious, and wonderful dining experience.“
“I brought my friend after I found this place from a friend. We enjoyed everything … and talking about service, i can’t brag more about Amanis … She’s just the best. Aside from the delicious offerings, She will give you all to have you enjoy and have the best experience in their restaurant ??“
