Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Noodles are the star at this Thai East Village gem that got raves from Eater and the New York Times after it opened in 2020. You'll find them in a host of regional dishes like the spicy ba mii pu (dry crab noodles) and chicken khao soi. Pair them with equally exciting cocktails like the tequila and tamarind syrup-based Pay-Thai in a neon-lit space that'll make you feel you're at one of Bangkok's famed street-food markets.

    Wow. Felt like we were in Thailand. The server was so helpful in getting our order right with a good mix of everything. The noodles and crab were most memorable and spectacular. The cocktail special was so refreshing. Everything was a TEN

    The whole experience felt very rushed. We had placed our order and all of the dishes came out in less than 5 minutes. We ordered the Moo Dang Puffs which tasted like any other Curry Puff in a typical Thai restaurant. The Had Yai Chicken lacked flavor and had no shallots as mentioned on the menu. Most of the flavor came from the sweet chili sauce. My husband ordered the Ba Mii Pu in which he said it didn’t taste anything like Spicy Tom Yum. It was more soy sauce based. The roasted pork had no flavor in it either but enjoyed the lump crab pieces. He mentioned that he had no idea what he was eating. The best tasting dish IMO was the Koong Karee. The only gripe I have is that it came out very much room temp and there were no scallions, onions and celery. It was just pretty much egg curry with chili peppers. Lastly, we ordered the Mango Sundae. The mangoes were very sweet and ripe, the mango ice cream was not too sweet and mango forward which we loved. The sticky rice wasn’t fully cooked since we did have quite a bit of hard grains mixed in. We had higher expectations given that it’s a Michelin restaurant. I think if they took their time more with the food and make their guests feel like they matter instead of a number to crank out tables, then it’d be a much more enjoyable experience. It seemed like everything was premade which lacked execution and flavor overall. Hoping it was just a really off night for the chef otherwise I’m speechless. Unfortunately, we most likely wouldn’t go back because there are many places that have better quality food and service. Glad we gave it a shot.

    Food was absolutely delicious! Felt a bit rushed to eat given how crowded the restaurant was even on a Monday night, but all in all will def be going back or ordering in.

    Good but not worth the crazy hype. Fish cheeks is better but soothr is a very close second.
