We got the afternoon tea set with lychee thai tea and a pumpkin thai tea. The afternoon tea set came with a good combination of both savory and sweet treats as well as a non-alcoholic drink of our choice. We loved the chive pancake and curry puff. They also had some interesting twists on food including an egg tart with pork floss, which was a great sweet and savory combo. The set was enough to fill us up as a full meal. I would highly recommend this to anyone who loves high tea but wants to try it with a new cultural twist.
Came here today for their afternoon tea set menu with a few friends after the gym and I love the ambience. Staff was friendly there is outdoor seating and a wide variety of food and drink options (alcoholic and non alcoholic) I think. They have outdoor seating and I think this place would be a great option for those booking bachelorette parties or baby shower venues. Their regular thai tea was a bit sweet for me but I really enjoyed my friends pumpkin spice thai tea (hot) it wasnt too sweet. The afternoon tea time set was cute but I would go for their entree party set next time instead. ($68) Luckily we were able to do tea time for one since it states $48 per person and me and 2 friends shared whatever was on it (chefs choice) the only 2 dishes that stood out was the chive pancake and the egg floss egg tart. The pad see ew which isn't on their afternoon set was good it had alot of "wok" air iykyk.
We came here for lunch on a Monday and it was empty, so I suppose they also turned the AC off. We were sweating and fanning ourselves with the menu, but it cooled down a tad. (I assume they decided to turn it on when they saw us). Anyways, they do offer some lunch specials, which were a good deal. For $14-16 each, you get an entree with a soup or salad. I opted for the soup while everyone else had the salad. Even though it was a hot day, I am a soup lover and the spice from this was delicious for a tom yum soup. Everyone also really enjoyed the peanut dressing for the salad. For my entree, I had a Pad See Ew while everyone got a Royal Fried Rice. The price ranges depending on your protein choice here. I also had to ask for hot sauce condiments, which they brought out separately. It's a decent spot, but there's too many other great Thai spots around.
Cute spot to enjoy afternoon tea with your gfs. Tried the afternoon tea and it's too pretty to eat. The staff is friendly. Had the pumpkin Thai tea hot. Delicious. Not too sweet.
Cafe Chili has been a staple in Carrol Gardens for some time. I have dined here in the past and can't believe I haven't reviewed... Well.. stopping in post movie Christmas dinner seemed appropriate. The space is rustic with exposed brick wall, warm lighting and cushy seating. Cafe Chili offers an extensive menu offering varieties of soups, salad, traditional appetizers and entrees. My friend and I opted for our usuals: 1. Appetizers: Coconut Shrimp: four pieces of battered shrimp served with julienne carrots and sweet chili sauce on the side. Scrumptious! 2. Entrees: Alisa has Pad Thai with Shrimp, generous portion of shrimp and enjoyed it immensely I had Pad se Ew with Chicken; broad noodles, spinach and generous portion of chicken. Both entrees were plentiful and we both took home leftovers. 3. Beverage: I was happy to see Thai Milk Tra with Boba; which was delicious Too full for dessert but we did see a $38 Afternoon Tea menu that offered Pecan Pie and Eclairs, looked promising. The service was friendly and warm. I highly recommend this restaurant. Cafe Chili is located on 172 Court Street Take R train to Court and walk @10 minutes
Lovely spot run by this sweet couple who have been running this business for two decades! Gorgeous back patio area. Perfect for a co-working lunch. I even took calls here because the patio was empty on a Monday afternoon other than my friend and I. We experienced such fantastic service, and I felt welcomed as if I was eating lunch at someone's house. The pad see ew was one of the best I've had in a long time. Slight char on the noodle and chinese broccoli makes such a difference. The chive pancakes were divine and I still think about it, and they are vegan. They have an afternoon tea tasting menu that we did not try, but looked beautiful in the plating and details. Don't miss out on this gem.
Super friendly owners. Great for a casual lunch or dinner. Came on a chilly Sunday for a late lunch and food was pretty good, service was quick and relaxed.
Located right in Downtown Brooklyn, you will find the only place that serves Thai-style afternoon tea. If you don't consume pork, they will happily accommodate you and provide you with a vegetarian-friendly spread. Immediately upon arrival, I was greeted warmly and there were a few tables open on a busy Saturday afternoon. I decided to order the afternoon tea but found that many items contained pork. However, when I explained to them that I don't eat pork, they gladly, without any hesitation, made accommodations for me. I was happy to receive a spread with gorgeous sweet treats and creatively made veggie items such as a spring rolls and scallion pancakes. The Thai tea was perfect! I also have a dairy intolerance. But I was able to consume the tea because there wasn't any dairy products in it. It wasn't too sweet. But if you know that it has a lot of caffeine then you know it was just right. My visit was timed perfectly and I was able to stay to have dinner. I ordered the beef pad see ew, crab fried rice, basil red snapper, and half duck. I was very pleased with the presentation of every thing. However, I wasn't a big fan of the half duck smothered in the sauce... I felt like the duck was a bit dry and so it wasn't as delightful as I thought it would have been. Oh, and the lychee martini was excellent BTW! Despite the one dish, I really loved this place. I am recommending it to everyone I know.
I came here for the afternoon tea but I do not recommend! I think it was a 3/5 but I really liked the service so bumping it to 4/5 Food: we came here for afternoon tea which after tax and tip comes up to $50 per person! In the tea you get your choice of Thai tea or a tea bag. I got the Thai tea - which was very sweet and was a bit too much with a primarily sweet meal! The way the afternoon tea works is that the chef decides what you get. Most of the items are sweet! My favorite was the chive pancake! Everything else was good but nothing too special. I did love the presentation of everything and was pretty full after (i couldn't finish it)! I think this is decent especially for the price but I think I prefer more tradition afternoon teas Service: great service! Our waitress was very kind and attentive Ambience: the restaurant is very big and nice!
If you're in Brooklyn and craving a unique afternoon tea experience, you have to check out Café Chili! Their Thai-inspired afternoon tea set lets you choose up to 8 sweet & savory pastries, paired with a selection of teas--or go for a classic Thai milk tea. For just $38 per person, it's an experience worth indulging in. Perfect for a cozy date or a catch-up with friends! Who's in?
Cafe Chili goes back--kind of way back and it used to be a go to Thai spot for me and my family/friends. Fast forward to present day. The restaurant stands in the same place---inviting and with attractive decor. While I ordered for delivery a few times in the last several years, I recently took the opportunity to dine in. A sign outside noted happy hour food and drinks until 7. The server was courteous to extend the offer even though it was 7:09 when we settled. The air temperature was cold inside which was uncomfortable considering it was very cold outside. We started with an appetizer known as Pretty Package which were Steamed Chicken and Shrimp dumplings. They were quite good and 5 pieces to an order. For main we chose Chicken with Cashews and Chicken with Ginger (my choice). I asked for less salt since I typically don't like dark brown salty gravy. I ordered a Jasmine tea to accompany my meal. Service was somewhat lackluster which was surprising since there weren't many patrons. Food arrived a short while later. My opinion was satisfactory. It was pretty good and I enjoyed it Overall, Cafe Chili will satisfy your Thai craving but doesn't measure up to other high quality NYC restaurants cited in various articles. In the past, I liked their Pad Thai and some other selections but many dishes include duck and pork which I do not eat. Good to try if in the area and out of ideas where to dine.
Came on a New Year's Eve and the restaurant was relatively quiet for lunch. There was one server working at that time and I think there were others helping out in the kitchen. Menu was extensive but it wasn't overwhelming really just a front and back page. There were some interesting looking specials that I got which was the Andaman noodles and a curry. We originally ordered the shrimp and pineapple curry but i think the server misheard and brought out a duck and pineapple curry for us instead. They were friendly enough to offer to take it back to the kitchen to correct it for us, however we didn't want to waste any more time so we just took the duck and pineapple curry instead. The noodles were very very flavorful. A lot of seafood in it and just the right amount of spice. The pineapple duck Curry was also pretty good, I kind of wish that the bowl of rice was a little bit bigger since we finished the rice quicker than the curry. When it came to dessert, this was where I was a little disappointed because because there were two desserts that I wanted, however I was told that anything with mango wasn't available and they really only had ice cream left for dessert. Other than that, bathrooms are pretty nice Ambience was pretty nice and there looks like there is a really cute patio in the back for warmer days.
Amazing experience and food! Thai iced coffee: So delicious and strong! It has a certain grittiness to it which I loved! Drunken noodles: so flavorful! The noodles were thick and silky, and the chicken was cooked to perfection. We added their house chili sauces to it and it became even better! Thai bread with chicken curry: the bread was one of the flakiest roti canai/thousand layer breads I have ever had! The chicken curry had a coconut based and a rich peanut taste - two flavors which my husband and I love! It was a chance find, and I am so glad we did because we loved our meal here! read more
Taylor's Tayke: Cafe Chili offers a fun introduction to Thai flavors through both its afternoon tea experience and its full dinner menu. What stood out most was the variety. From savory bites and traditional Thai dishes to tea service and desserts, there was plenty to explore throughout the visit. The afternoon tea service in particular offered a unique way to experience the menu beyond a traditional meal. My Taysty Tayke: Get Down & Dirty, Expeditiously: Fish in the Boat One of the most memorable dishes from the visit. Fresh salmon paired with bright flavors and a subtle kick of spice. It almost gave salmon salad vibes while still feeling distinctly Thai. Egg Tart Soft, creamy, and incredibly smooth. The texture was outstanding and easily one of the strongest items from the afternoon tea selection. Crying Tiger Skewer Tender, juicy, flavorful, and everything you'd want from grilled beef. Simple execution done extremely well. Hot Chai Tea Excellent on its own, but the addition of cinnamon elevated it even further by adding warmth and complexity to every sip. Shrimp Bite Loved the texture here. Fresh shrimp with a bright lime flavor and none of the chewiness that can sometimes hold shrimp dishes back. Duck Salad Fresh, juicy, and tender with great balance throughout. Macaron with Grape The grape added a fruity sweetness that complemented the macaron nicely without overpowering it. Pork Pastry Flaky, savory, and satisfying. Dumpling Solid texture and flavor throughout. Curry Puff Enjoyable curry flavor but could have used a little more punch. Thai Wings Well executed with good flavor throughout. Rice Ball Sweet, sticky, and compact. A nice contrast to some of the savory items. Chicken & Shrimp Fried Dumplings Enjoyable but didn't stand out as much as some of the stronger offerings. The Experience: The afternoon tea service was a pleasant surprise and offered a creative way to sample multiple flavors in one sitting. Pairing that with the dinner menu gave a well-rounded look at what Cafe Chili has to offer. Best For: Afternoon tea, casual lunches, catching up with friends, introducing someone to Thai cuisine, or exploring a variety of flavors in one visit. In Conclusion: Cafe Chili shines when it leans into dishes that balance freshness, texture, and bold flavor. The Fish in the Boat, Egg Tart, Crying Tiger Skewer, and Duck Salad were the standouts for me, while the afternoon tea experience adds a unique element you don't often find at Thai restaurants. If you're looking for variety and a mix of savory and sweet offerings, Cafe Chili is worth a visit. Stamped by Elajas read more
Came on a Saturday late afternoon and there was plenty of seating, no reservation required. The ambiance is really nice too. I would totally come here again for group gatherings. They also have backyard seating area as well. They have this afternoon tea set that's $38. It comes with a variety of savory and sweet items. The chive pancakes were tasty and everybody enjoyed it the most, as well as the pork floss egg tart. Some other items weren't as tasty. I'm glad to have tried it, but won't be ordering it again. The pad see ew was delicious! It had good "wok hei" and noodles were slippery. I would come back for this dish. And I'd like to try their other entrees as well. Staff was super nice and accommodating. read more

Cafe Chili has great Thai Cuisine, and this establishment is located on Court Street in Dowtown Brooklyn. Cafe Chili is close enough to Trader Joe's, Daily Provisions, Lemongrass, Blue Collar Burger, etc. & other shops, is in walking distance from the F & G trains at Bergen Street as well as w/ in enough walking distance from Atlantic Ave & Borough Hall. We came here on X-Mas Eve 2023. It was the only restaurant still open in the area that evening after first going to Brooklyn Farmacy and Soda Fountain to have dessert. Yes, we definitely craved dessert before dinner-lol. Anyway, we stumbled upon Cafe Chili that day, was seated immediately, and the rest is history. Cafe Chili has a good selection of thai / asian-fusion dishes, along w/ cocktails, & other beverages. The Veggie Spring Rolls, Vegetable Dumplings, Chicken Wings, Sauteed Vegetables & Chicken Skewers are delicious. I have been back a number of times for lunch. The weekday Lunch Special is an appetizer & Entree for $11.95. My Lunch Special favorite is the Glass Noodle Soup as an appetizer & then I get the Workingman's Noodles w/ Chicken as the entree. Everything is prepared well, and the Lunch Special is a good price for a nicely-sized dish. Happy Hour is every day from 3pm - 6:30pm and includes $5 beer, $6 wine & $2 off appetizers. Website - cafechiliny.com Instagram - @cafechilibk On the website, there is a "Discounts & Deals" section & one can place orders online to be picked up or delivered. Open Sun. - Thurs. - 11:30am - 10pm & Fri. - Sat. - 11:30am - 10:30 pm. When you check-in on Yelp, you can redeem the offer to receive a free spring roll! read more
Such a unique experience - afternoon tea with a Thai twist at a very good price. The unlimited Thai Ice Tea was delicious and the bites were very interesting - a wide variety of flavors. We sat in the courtyard outside and it was so beautiful, even saw some dogs join in the back. The service was a bit slow, but it allowed us to feel relaxed and we were able to hang out for a while. read more

Cafe Chili won't win any awards for creativity or authenticity, but if you're in the area and need an affordable meal with big, flavorful portions (and a gorgeous setting to boot), this is your jam. We got the Spicy Basil Fried Rice and the Pad Thai, both of which hit the spot for our poor, hungry stomachs. And at $15 per dish, our wallets loved us too. read more

Stumbled across this awesome mom and pop Thai shop that's now one of our favorites in the city. The owners are so kind and welcoming, telling us to take our time. The coconut shrimp was good, but nothing special. The tom kha was delicious and flavorful, we were scraping the bottom of the bowl. The pad Thai was a little sweet for my liking but I asked for fish sauce and that fixed it right up. The andaman soup was a unique dish we've never had before and it was filling, creamy and the seafood was cooked well. Main dish portions were large and we were stuffed! We will 100% come back again read more
Came here on a Friday evening for dinner with my gf. Compared to a lot of the Thai restaurants in NYC, the atmosphere is more on the romantic side. Soft classical music played in the background with candles lit on every table. Drinks, we got the Summer Pineapple Punch ($6) and Raspberry Peach Lemonade ($6). Both were refreshing. If I had to choose one, it would be the Sumer Pineapple Punch. We tried a variety of unique items that we thought was only available at this restaurant as well as dishes recommended by the staff. We started off with the All Flavors Thai Snack. This consisted of roasted coconuts, fresh lime, red onion, ginger, and peanuts. In one bite, you're supposed to be able to experience sweet, sour, spicy, salty, and bitter. For sure have never had anything like this in any Thai restaurants. The Spicy Thai Basil Minced Chicken w Sunny Side up Egg ($18) was another recommended dish. Regardless of its simplicity, it's a pretty good dish. One entree dish you cannot go wrong is the Kao Soi ($18) which is a Northern Thai style curry egg noodle w chicken. The chicken is a huge drumstick and the meat is fall off the bone good. It is also very filling and the noodles, including the fried noodles on top, were great. For dessert we had to get the OG Blue Butterfly Pea Sticky Rice w Sweet Mango ($9) aka Mango Sticky Rice. The presentation and plating itself was done very picturesque. If you're looking for some more flavorful dessert, I'd recommend the Thai Pearl ($9). This dish is sweet and will also be salty when you pour the liquid that comes on the side. Aside from the food, service is great. We got to meet the owners, Peanie and Gary, whom are super friendly. They will greet you when you first walk in and will walk you out, like how grandparents would when their kids come visit. If you get the chance to chat with them, especially Gary, they'll tell you all about Thailand. They'll be excited for you if you're planning a trip to Thailand and give you recommendations as well. read more

This was such a pleasant experience. The afternoon tea was so beautifully crafted and presented and such a good deal! The food was all delicious, and the service was outstanding. They do serve their afternoon tea all day, but recommend making a reservation and letting them know you would like it ahead of time. read more
The staff was super sweet and attentive - they introduced the whole menu to us when we first walked in and the ambiance of the place was nice and homey. We came since we saw their thai inspired afternoon tea set online and they were sweet enough to let us know that we could split a set between the two of us (though the unlimited tea would only be for one person). They served us the chef's selection with the afternoon tea set so we couldn't choose the actual items, but they had all the flagships that we would have ordered anyways. My favorite was the egg tart with pork floss and these cubes that they served (honestly didn't really know what it was...though they did tell us in the beginning).. read more

I stopped by here for a quick lunch and left head over heels for their Massaman Curry. With about 40 mins to spare between appointments, I ordered the Lunch Box Special with Massaman Curry + Chicken and I was in and out in less than 30 minutes. I can't remember anything that stood out about the salad or various dumplings that were included in the lunch box but I enjoyed the spring roll and was happy to get an extra one for free. (Hello Yelp check-ins!) I'm not sure how frequently I'll venture for food this far down on Court st in the future, but if I do, I would be happy to pop in here again. Most of my lunch was delicious and decently priced, I was served quickly, and the staff was incredibly kind. If I just throw some great cocktails and lovely outdoor seating into the mix for my next visit, this place may go to 5 stars lol. read more

My friends and I decided to try this place for the afternoon tea. We were seated right away around 12pm. We tried the Thai afternoon tea for $38 per person, chive pancakes and three flavor fried fish. The chive pancakes and fried fish were good. The Thai afternoon tea was a different story, we had a choice of 8 items and tea, we received the exact items for both of the afternoon tea set. Unfortunately, we didn't like any of the items from the afternoon tea menu, everything tasted microwaved and not fresh; quite disappointing. Hopefully they change the way afternoon tea items are prepared as we quite enjoyed the items from their regular menu. read more
Cafe Chili, a family-run gem in Brooklyn, offers a warm and inviting atmosphere from the moment you step inside. The friendly staff makes you feel right at home, and the owners themselves might even greet you and make recommendations from the extensive menu. The cozy ambiance is only getting better! They're also currently creating a charming outdoor garden, complete with lights and plants - perfect for enjoying the upcoming warm weather. Our dishes arrived quickly and bursting with flavor. What we ordered: Thai Iced Tea Lychee Marti Calamari Lemongrass Tom Yum Soup Green Curry w/ Seafood Pad See Ew w/ Seafood Sticky Rice w/ Mango Thai Coconut Custard Support local & family owned businesses! The delicious food, friendly service, and cozy atmosphere make Cafe Chili a must-try for anyone craving authentic Thai cuisine. read more

I was super excited to give this Thai restaurant a try. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked in and was greeted. The place was super cute. Galy was my server, and he was super nice! I started with the Pinot Nior, and for my appetizer, I had the veggie dumplings, which were tasty. I then had the Tom Kha soup, and that was delicious and a good amount of sweet. For my meal I got the Phi Phi Islands and that had seafood all through it and it was very good. I enjoyed the flavors! The food here was absolutely delicious! I had a great experience! read more
