Waiter made the experience along with food was fantastic. Thai Old Fashioned was a nice surprise. Bone marrow was excellent and desert with the fermented rice that was like ice cream was worth the trip.

Atmospheric, lively restaurant a little off the beaten track, with modernized Thai cuisine. Fantastic wine selection, especially the German Rieslings are represented in an astonishing range, with the fruit-sweet Rieslings here perfectly matching the subtle spiciness of the food. The staff are friendly and attentive. A wonderful experience!

We had a lovely dinner during Restaurant Week and loved every dish we tried. This is not your traditional Thai restaurant, be adventurous and you'll find something special here. The restaurant is spacious, it's so rare to have "so much room" in a NY restaurant. It was full by 745pm and the noise level was tolerable; we didn't lose our voice after the meal. It's a great spot for a first date or party.
