Great service and food. We ordered Mango avocado salad - taste good, but too much cilantro for our taste; Roasted bone marrow - was okay; boneless beef ribs - our favorite dish, great sauces, definitely will come back for more; charcoal roasted dorade was also very good. Can’t wait to come back and try more of their delicious foods and cocktails 👌

Outstanding! Food, ambience, cocktails, flavors. Just great. It's a Thai place but it has the Thai flavors with super origin and fascinating dishes. Try just about everything and you will not be disappointed. If you have to try only one dish, I would go with the bone marrow! Yes, its delicious.

This place earns 5 stars just for the ambiance, creativity and the explosion of flavors when you try their leaf wraps or a mango coconut sundae. I can honestly say I have never had food quite like this before. Duck was perfectly cooked. Chicken was falling off the bone tender. Prawns were delicious. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly. The atmosphere was unbeatable.

What a lovely place! I’ll never be able to look at the food the same after this. Their flavour combination is unbelievable! I’ve never imagined simply roasted chicken can taste so good with those amazing sauces on the side. I believe it was papaya and kohlrabi salad that was insane as well. So fresh and so flavourful at the same time! Lamb salad was pretty spicy and I don’t even like spy yet food, but that was amazing. And the beef ribs curry was great as well as rice with crab. Also the bread was something out of this world! For desert four of us shared their coconut desert which was full of texture, light flavour and just perfect end to the meal. We loved the food, the service was great, felt very welcome and comfortable there. Design is pretty dark and interesting, there is probably national music playing in the background. All this made a beautiful experience to remember, so thank you very much for that! Can’t wait to be back next time I’m visiting NY!

It was good Thai food. I came here because of Michelin Star. I wanted to try the best. The service was nice and very friendly and attentive. I did not really enjoy their draft beer. It was uncle boons draft. It was not cold and red pepper spicy. Red pepper was ok but temperature was really disappointing. Food was great though. All the recommendations were great. I will definitely come back and try some other foods.

Got one of the few reservations that they have. When I arrived there was a huge line halfway down the block! It moved quickly and we were seated right away. Drinks were good - especially the Cruel as a Cucumber and Tamarind Margarita. Ordered the food right away and then it took almost an hour to get the first 2 appetizers which were RAW!! However, the server noticed and got our other dishes out pretty quickly. The crab fried rice and massaman neuh along with the raw scallop salad and green mango salad were all good and not terribly spicy (the table next to us ordered the chicken banana blossom salad and were sweating and crying as they ate it!). The highlight of the meal was the coconut sundae at the end of our meal! I would definitely come back to try different dishes!

It’s a throwback to a time and place far far away. When you come aboard right away you know you’re in a different kind of restaurant. Surrounded by dark woods and classic retro Asia everywhere you’ve been transported to a busy diner in Bangkok. The amazing thai food came fast. Two dishes and two sides of sticky rice barely fit on the tiny table. The overflowing table and busy shoulder to shoulder seating created a sense urgency to eat as fast as I could. Not in a bad way strangely. The music was hypnotic. The service was fast and knowledgeable. Thinking back to that time in Uncle Boons the whole experience seems like it was a dream.

This was one of the BEST Thai restaurants I've been to, if you are in NYC then you absolutely must go to this restaurant. The wait is close to 3 hours if you don't have a reservation and some people actually will wait that long to get a table here and it's absolutely worth it!! The food is outstanding!! I went with 2 friends and we ordered 4 items to share and had two desserts. There are only 3 vegetarian options (I'm a vegetarian) on the menu but when I say those are the only things you need to eat on the menu, you have to trust me on this. We ordered the Yum Mamoung, which is a green mango salad, Mee Krob, and Khao Soi Kaa Kai, which is a golden curry with egg noodles. The flavors were perfection and everything was outstanding!! I would also like to say that the service here is awesome as well. Everyone who works here is super friendly, know the menu very well and make the best suggestions. Angie and Christine were the kindest hostesses who work their magic and manage that 3 hour wait line with so much grace!! You don't even get mad when they tell you the wait is that long because they are so nice!!! Love this place and I'm so excited to go back!

Not your typical Thai place but definitely the kind of real Thai food you need to try. I'm not a fan of Thai but I was a fan of everything I tried here. I'm not a fan of spicy food but I couldn't get enough of it here. Worth coming with a group and ordering a bit of everything for the table. Frog legs are a MUST and so are the short ribs. Phenomenal service too. Every employee made us feel welcome and made sure we were happy and comfortable. Will be raving about this spot for a while!

Food is actually really good. Drinks are good too. Are they 2 hour wait good? If you aren't hungry and want to go for a walk. Otherwise there are plenty of good thai places. I did very much enjoy the massaman curry and pork jowl, however. It was fun but probably wouldn't wait again.
