Great place for take out Thai food. The noodle dishes and appetizers are all delicious and as good or better as some other Thai restaurants' "gourmet" meals. Have never eaten in the small front area, but the foot traffic is very heavy due to a lot of take out orders. The ladies at the front and on the phone taking and distributing orders are always gracious, quick, accurate, and provide realistic time for pickup depending on the dishes and time of day. The lunch specials are also a great value! read more

Got their lunch special to-go here and it was great. For $15, you can get an entree, a spring roll, and a salad. Everything was so flavorful and yummy. Service was pretty quick. While waiting for food, I saw their full entrees looked huge. Would love to come back to try their in-dining experience! read more

I ordered take-out from this place and the portion size is pretty generous! Pad see ew with beef is on the sweeter side and the beef was bland. I did not enjoy the pad see ew. The pad Thai was good! I enjoyed it a lot more. Cucumber salad barely had any cucumber in it. I probably wouldn't order from here again read more

Amazing prices especially for lunch and really kind staff. Food comes out quick. I love the basil fried rice - I ask for it extra spicy and add shrimp for the protein. The shrimp are large and good quality. I just wish they would cut down on the single use plastic like the utensils and the containers they put the salads in. They also make a mean thai iced tea. read more

This is my number one take out spot for YEARS. So good I get the tom yum soup and yellow curry with tofu. Absolutely great for vegetarians So fast and so good read more

My family and I came here during our vacation because we were seriously craving some authentic Thai food. And let's be real--NYC has a ton of Thai restaurants. But we chose this one because it gave off more of a cozy, family dinner vibe rather than a fancy high-end place, which is exactly what we wanted. The food was amazing, and the service was honestly one of the best we've had. We were especially impressed that our server spoke both Lao and Thai--that really made us feel welcome and at home. Here's what we ordered: - Tom Yum Soup - Super flavorful and tasty. It hit all the right notes. - Crispy Pork with Chinese Broccoli over Rice - So good! Big portion, and the pork was thick and crispy. We actually ordered this one twice--it was that good. - Crying Steak - Perfectly seared and seasoned. It came with a side salad, which was a nice and healthy touch. - Pla Rad Prik - A whole fried fish tossed in sweet c chili sauce. Not fishy at all, just super crispy and flavorful. * Chicken Satay - Chicken on skewers that smelled amazing and tasted just as good. - Nam Tok - I think we ordered this too, but I was already full by then and didn't get to try it. It looked delicious though! - Pad Thai - Big portion and made with fresh shrimp, not frozen! We actually finished this before we could even take a photo. - Mango Sticky Rice - Our server surprised us with this sweet treat at the end. We loved it so much we finished it before we could snap a pic. Overall, everything was great. The service especially stood out--our server treated us so kindly and handled our big (and honestly, kind of chaotic) dining style like a pro. Highly recommend this spot. Even though the location might be a bit far for some, it's definitely worth the trip and the money. You won't regret it read more

Came here on a Sunday for an early dinner. The restaurant was about to close and prep for their dinner service. Thankfully they were kind enough to take 9 of us for a quick meal but we had to get our orders in quickly before the kitchen closes. Everything came out relative quick which was perfect as there were 6 kids and only 3 adults. We all enjoyed the dishes and most were finished. The fried chicken was pretty tasty as were the noodles. The restaurant itself is pretty tiny so perhaps go at off peak times for dine in or make a reservation ahead of time. The staff was friendly enough to give us containers for our leftovers. read more

If you're looking for some legit Thai food, you gotta check out Bangkok2Thai! This place has been around for over a decade, and everything we tried was so good. The Steak Basil Fried Rice was amazing, and the Kaprow Over Rice had the perfect amount of spice. It seriously tastes like real Bangkok street food! Also, the Pla Rod Yum Mango Bronzini--the mango salad on top is super refreshing. If you want that authentic Thai flavor, swing by! It's right near Gramercy Park and the service is awesome too. Featuring : Duck roll. Papaya salad.

Not the best Thai food I've had. The pad see ew was mainly meat with a few noodles. The pad Thai was better but the pork was extremely over cooked, very crunchy & hard to chew. The chicken dumplings were okay, not very flavorful. Not a bad spot to stop in at, but not my first choice. read more

Oh where do I begin?!? First of all, this place is tiny so to wait over half hour just to order is insane. Waitress ignored the LIFE out of us for some reason. Then once got food, the lady stands with the door WIDE open for TEN MINUTES talking to an a customer she forgot to give them their food. Btw it's literally 20 degrees outside. Entire restaurant BEGGING her to close the door. Then, one of the servers, bare hands wiped the floor, turns around DOESN'T wash her hands and starts handling food, drinks and etc. I'm so GOOD! DON'T order their "alcoholic" drinks... it's pure JUICE too! I love life, I love thai food, I'm not a fussy person so me to discover all these things is a telling story. This place is NOT IT! read more

Bangkok 2 Thai - And the finale... hair in my food! YAY - Thai Near Me - New York, New York

fantastic experience at Bangkok 2 Thai! Every dish we tried was bursting with authentic flavors and left us wanting more. The fried rice was perfectly cooked, with a wonderful balance of seasoning and just the right amount of crunch. Although I will say they were heavy handed on the salt. The pad Thai was savory, slightly sweet, and packed with fresh ingredients. Pad see ew was definitely my favorite. The noodles were tender, and the sauce was rich and delicious. If you're looking for authentic Thai food that hits all the right notes, Bangkok 2 Thai is a must-visit. Service was quick and attentive. There was a strangler who came into the restaurant and tried to ruin our experience but the servers kindly escorted him out and he didn't return so it didn't ruin the atmosphere too much at all actually. Great spot! read more

Very solid thai spot for lunch! Got their lunch special which is $12.95 for a salad, spring roll, and entree. I chose the chicken pad thai and it was really good and the portion was very generous. I got sat at 12pm and finished at around 12:30. They give you your food very quickly and are very attentive. You truly can't beat this deal! I recommend going early because it definitely picks up quick! read more

My friend ordered catering from here for a party she hosted at her place for about 12-15 people! We were shocked by how much rice came with the orders. We enjoyed the curry, the pad Thai, and the pad se ew. The process seemed easy though I was surprised to learn that there was no catering special. She just had to pay per # entree ordered, but they just put all the entrees in a large container. Not a bad fast thai restaurant in the neighborhood but probably not a Thai place like Soothr or Sala Thai that you would go out of your way for. read more

Great lunch specials options. The food is always full of flavor and fresh. The waitresses are always very pleasant, attentive and being out my food fast. I love spicy food so my go-to dish is the shrimp Kee-Mao read more

UPDATE TODAY (ONE YEAR LATER): You might be asking yourself how does a restaurant go from an average 3 Stars to a superb 5 Stars. Let me explain... When I came last year I'm certain that I just ordered something I wasn't used to ordering at a Thai restaurant and therefore just wasn't super thrilled with. Until last night, I hadn't gone back to them in over a year. But rewind to me last night, it was late, I hadn't had dinner and knew I could pick it up quick since it's close to my apartment. I ordered two simple things-- Green Salad with peanut dressing and Coconut soup. I WAS ABSOLUTELY WOWED! This is a lesson for me. An incredible restaurant should be judged on its most simplest dishes as they are the hardest to get right believe it or not. Green Salad with Peanut Dressing ($7) - the portion they give you is very generous and I was happy to see that. The amount of dressing that comes with it is perfectly proportioned to the size of the salad. Hate when places don't give you enough dressing but they did it perfectly. Coconut Soup ($6) - ABSOLUTE FLAVOR BOMB! Best Thai soup I've ever had in NYC HANDS DOWN! It was packed with veggies like mushrooms, cilantro and cabbage. And PACKED with super tender chicken. I am salivating just typing this! Wow wow wow. Perfectly spicy (I asked for spicy), sour, sweet and velvet texture. Obsessed! You have to order it! Way to go Bangkok II Thai. When I wrote my original 3 Star review I truly appreciated your response to my review. You handled it perfectly last year. You were gracious and that is the reason I was able to come back nearly 1 year later and try it out again. You have to come here!!! read more

By far one of my most favorite Thai restaurants. Quality, authenticity, and thoughtfulness come yo mind. Quality- the photo is of Khao soi which believe it or not is from takeout the day before as you can see, the chicken is prepared finally sliced be mindful to the grain of the chicken, there's ample amount of the condiment ingredients and a generous portion. I don't even think my photo does justice to how beautifully prepared the dish it really is to have to try to understand, the curry base they use tastes as actually handmade quality, there's a very slight coarseness as opposed to mass manufactured pulverized to powder. Amazing. Larb gai- again outstanding preparation! I love that any time I have asked for a modification they always very carefully follow through. I am also impressed by the cultural relativity, in the sense that they use an American spice/heat scale rather than Thai . That said, mild/level 1 means any sharp spice will be minimized or omitted. This was really interesting because if you like the typical taste of the dish, then you have an opportunity to try it without certain ingredients and maybe realize you like it more (or less). I'm fairly certain people who, like sharp spices will probably not be very fond of the mild versions! I hope they'll consider expanding the menu to include dishes which are amazing but rarely seen outside of Thailand but are probably made in Thai American households or when seasonal ingredients available as I'm sure they'll be amazing under this chef. read more

Success for lunch! I came with my husband for the first time for a quick lunch. The team in Bangkok did not disappoint us. We were in and out in 30 mins, and the food was good. We ordered two lunch specials which included a spring roll, a salad, and a choice of entree. Our entrees were fried rice with crispy chicken and massaman with white rice--$ 16 on average per meal, including tips and taxes. Everything was delicious and brought to us promptly. Although the indoor seating is limited, we did not have issues finding a table. The place was never fully packed, as everyone came in and out quickly. The decor is simple, and the ambiance is casual. I rated them five stars because of the quick service and food quality. I'm looking forward to coming back soon and trying a new dish. read more

Bangin! I'm still thinking about my pineapple fried rice several days later. I went there with another couple and everyone's food was delicious we had no room for appetizers however they had some really good green tea and other beverages that I definitely would suggest you try. The wait staff was attentive and they had the best hot sauce that I've ever had at a Thai restaurant. The food was so good that I tried to come home and replicate the rice!I can't wait to go back read more

Lunch special portion is TINY (maybe 2/3 compared to other Thai places in the area) at a more expensive price ($1-2 more). I paid $11.95 for a drunken noodle with shrimp. All the meats are the same price, so I guess that's one good thing. It also comes with one spring roll (can't choose apps unlike other lunch specials) and a salad that came in a paper take out box?? While the food wasn't bad, it did take forever to pick up my order on a busy day. Probably won't be going again since there are plenty of more generous restaurants around the hospital areas. read more

Bangkok 2 Thai - Lunch salad in a paper box - Thai Near Me - New York, New York

Bangkok 2 Thai is the best Thai restaurant we have been to for many years. They are not one of those fancy Thai restaurants, but as far as good old Thai food that we grew up with, they are the best. Every dish we have tried from them has been delicious! We love the garlic soy chicken appetizer, and their curries are simply amazing. They even have Thai basil fried rice with DUCK!!! My husband had almost given up hope of finding this dish again until we found Bangkok 2 Thai. It's his favorite Thai dish and, according to him, this was the best version he ever tasted. It's rare to find a restaurant whose every dish is equally solid. There's no such thing as a house version for Bangkok 2 Thai. We are confident any dish we order from them can be considered the house special. read more

Not the fanciest place but offer great thai food. Have sat down to eat and have ordered for takeout and both have been great. Not crowded if you decide to eat in (not a lot of people do, mostly take-out). Very friendly staff. Great go-to and reliable thai food. read more

Always my go to for thai in NYC. Recently tried the SPICY spice level for drunken noodles and it was an intense jump from the usual, so that's something to take note of. All the food I've had from here is always delicious and great when taken out. The staff is nice and the shop itself is very cozy! read more

The front end staff was very nice but the food was tasteless or one-dimensional (very salty or very sweet). The mood in the restaurant was set by the latin music playing eminating from the kitchen. Maybe it's because Thai food is my favorite kind of food and I want others to experience it, I hope you don't hold the food quality of this restaurant against an amazing, nuanced, and varied cuisine. You will not experience the culinary wonders of that nation here. read more
