Had a hankering for Thai and there was a deal for delivery in my app, so selected from Charm Thai the Cashew Nut Sauce Lunch Special with Squid and a side of Tom Yum Soup. So glad I did! The Tom Yum soup was freshly made with pieces of chicken. Squid is not a typical protein you can order in a lunch special, but it is something I enjoy. Everything was well prepared and absolutely delicious! It was a spectacular lunch! Recommend you also check out Charm Thai! read more

Charm Thai Express - Charm Thai freshly made Lunch Special Tom Yum Soup with pieces of chicken - Thai Near Me - New York, New York

Food are decent for the price. Minced chicken salad- Did not taste the kaffir lime leaves. Lemongrass, fish sauce and rice powder are weak. Definitely fresh made though. Minced chicken entree- Good portion, sunny side up egg with crusted bottom cooked perfectly. Missing the fish sauce taste. Rice is too mushy but it's freshly cooked. Tom Yum soup- Average taste. I didn't taste the kaffir lime leaves. This is not my 1st order, and it tasted slightly off this time. However, the price, portion and quality are good. read more

This is my go to delivery Thai food. I ordered the shrimp pad see ew and while it is always a hit today it was not as delicious. It was ok but it had too much soy sauce but the vegetables dumplings were delicious prefectly prepared. I also order the crab Rangoon where perfectly made. So overall it was great; next time I wil order the drunken noodles. I also ordered later on in the day and I usually order earlier so that could be the reason. The people on the phone are very nice and the delivery guy is always prompt and my food comes hot. This is a takeout place only so there is no ambiance. Even though the pad see ew was not as delicious as it usually is; I will still order from here because the other items were very well prepared the crab Rangoon had a good amount of stuffing and it was fried well. The dumplings were filled well and the vegetables used still had a bite to them. The time which they told me on the phone was the time it took and the food was hot and neat when it arrived. The lunch special is also a great deal. read more

This was a great delivery experience last week! I ordered chicken pad thai from here through Seamless. Bonus: they have a discount code for $5 off your first order from Seamless right now! The food was delivered before the delivery window, which was great. It was piping hot and delicious! For the price point, I thought this was one of the best pad thais that I have had recently. I would definitely order from here again because of the food quality and efficient delivery! read more

Overall the food is decent, but their beef pad see ew was terrible. It didn't have Chinese broccoli as it's supposed to have and the beef was tough and very chewy. They need to choose better cuts of beef, marinate them better or just learn how to cooke beef better. I will try a new Thai place instead. read more

Quick and easy!! Their green curry is so good and such a good deal for the lunch special

Charm is a good pick for Thai food! I've had their pad thai, drunken noodles, pad see ew, basil fried rice, red curry and massaman curry. Sometimes it's a little hit or miss and the dishes come super sweet. Otherwise solid option and available on all delivery platforms too! read more

Charm Thai Express - Basil Fried Rice - Thai Near Me - New York, New York

Delicious. Fast, cheap and the service is superb. Is it the best Thai food I've ever had? No but I consider it more so fast food and when you consider it as such, it's really really good fast food. I've had the Basil sauce and the Basil fried rice and both were soo good. Great flavor and spice and every time I eat it everyone asks me where I got it from because it smells so good. I usually get the lunch special which comes out to $11ish and comes with a dish + app (I get the Tom Yum soup and it's delish). Highly highly recommend!! read more

Charm Thai Express - Thai Basil Fried Rice Lunch Special - Thai Near Me - New York, New York

Charm Thai is our GO TO thai place. It is always delivered so quickly- this time it was at our door within 25 minutes of ordering. Getting food delivered that is too hot to eat, always a good thing. I highly recommend the street noodle w. Tofu. Perfectly cooked and super flavorful!! My boyfriend also loves their panang curry, he says it is rich and coconuty while still being light. Has a little kick when ordering medium I love any of their tofu dishes. The portions are generous compared to other thai places in the area and I love the way they cook their vegetables- never over cooked just nicely sauteed w a little crunchy (just how I like) I really recommend charm thai, having tried many other thai places in the area, I can genuinely say they do it best. Honestly every dish has a garnish and looks like it's been cooked w love. Really clean and well run establishment as well, and great customer services everytime we go there. read more

Didn't know this place existed until tonight. I got their Pad See Ew with beef, red curry with chicken, and their crab rangoons. The Pad See Ew was hot and fresh, meat was pretty tender, and the noodles were soft, not chewy. The red curry was spiced pretty well and it wasn't too sweet with a reasonable amount of meat and lots of veggies. Be sure to mix it before serving. The rangoons were rangoons. Nothing special, but fulfilled my Rangoon craving lol. Overall, fast, affordable, and tasty. I would def go here again. read more

Was hanging around west Harlem and needed a quick lunch fix-up. When I saw the storefront I wasn't convinced I would have the best experience here, but boy was I proven wrong. First off one of the best pad thai and pad sew ew I've had there in NYC. The pad Thai was decent portion, piping hot, seasoned and flavored well,and came with a lot of shrimp. Very authentic. Pad see ew too was good and fresh. Lots of chicken and the noodles were really tasty. Best part is lunch special. You get a appetizer salad or soup (choose one of four) with your entree for consistently between $7 to $10. So filling at such an incredible price! You can't beat that ANYWHERE. read more

When I'm craving Thai food, I like my food Thai spicy! Much like Indian food and Mexican food, it is important to get my order in the right level of spiciness... nuclear. I came across Charm Thai, as I was perusing my UberEats app. I liked what I saw from here, and ordered Pad Thai. After a 30 minute wait, I had my food delivered to me. As I unpackaged my order, I noticed that it came with generous portions of chicken. This is great, as many places like to cheat people out of quality meat portions. Another good note is the fact that they actually made my food Thai spicy. And I was able to divide the food into two meals, so I had twice the great food that day. This place offers good food, and efficient service. I would most definitely order from here the next time I crave Thai food. Keep up the good work! read more

The pad thai and drunken noodles here were delicious! The pad thai noodles were slightly different than what I usually have - a bit rounder instead of the flat ones. The chicken was fresh, and I loved the bean sprout and peanut toppings. read more

This place has the right name because it's magical! Delivery has never taken more than 30 minutes in all the years we've been ordering, and all of the noodles and fried rices are consistently great. Sometimes I get a double order during the lunch special hours to have for later. Unlike other places where they stint on the protein, this place chucks it in, and I sometimes actually wish there were more noodles (the cheapest ingredient)! read more

This is more of a take out restaurant but it's very good if you're on the go. I usually order the Pad Thai lunch special which comes with vegetable dumplings or soda. I always get the dumplings Everything here is also reasonably priced. read more

Found this place on Grubhub and ordered a Pad Thai go. The rice noodles were cooked amazingly, they gave a good amount of vegetables and were well garnished with peanuts and lime. The combination of the Pad Thai had a sweet, sour, and spicy flavor, especially with that sauce. the vegetables provided a crunch to it along with the peanuts making have that slightly nutty flavor. read more

Just like all my reviews from this time: this was not an in restaurant transaction. I received my order through UBER eats. I ordered drunken noodles, served with chicken, peppers, flat noodles, string beans, onion, and basil. It was pleasantly spicy without being so hot that the taste was lost. The chicken was well done, almost smoky, and well seasoned. I also ordered spring rolls, which were hot and crispy, as well as vegetable dumplings, which you could tell were made from scratch, with corn and greens. Delivery was fast and courteous. Very tasty food with a large selection of rice dishes, pad Thai dishes, wok dishes, soups, and more. read more

So good! We had the massaman and green curries (we were told the sauces do not have fish sauce so, safe for vegetarians) and the veggie dumplings and fried tofu appetizers. Everything was absolutely delicious. Adding Charm to my favorite list! read more

I was expecting so much more in terms of food quality. Although the food was delivered quickly, our meal was quite subpar. It was suggested that the food was old. For example, the fried calamari definitely had been previously fried on another day and reheated prior to delivery. Even the pad thai, which should have been a cake walk for a thai restaurant, was very underwhelming. Not sure if the current pandemic has put additional strain on the business, which resulted in a lackluster meal. That said, once things get back to normal, I'm willing to give the place another shot. read more

Good spot for quickly available but still well prepared Thai food on the Upper West Side. I was blown away by the flavors of such a simple dish as the Basil Fried Rice I ordered, and my husband's Pad Thai was creamy and rich and perfectly seasoned. We took some Pad See Ew back to our hotel frig so we could have a nosh the next day. Reasonable prices Nice big portions read more

This place is very shady hole in the wall Thai food place that doesn't take Apple Pay I'd advise you to go elsewhere.

I don't even know what to say. Y'all have some good Thai iced tea. But come on. Garlic chicken has to have flavor. This didn't do it for me. Plain and probably undercooked. Boiled, maybe. The crab Rangoon was burnt. Why was it this dark and crispy? Just no bueno. Won't be ordering again. Overpriced and under-delivered. read more

Great take out Thai place in Harlem. I have ordered multiple times from Charm Thai and they have been consistently good. Love the curries, various noodle dishes, and appetizers. The food is hot and fresh, generous veg and meat in curries and noodle dishes, and very authentic flavors. I appreciate their reasonable prices. When I pick up, their staff is gracious and friendly, which makes the experience even better! read more

The best Thai food in the area and it's so cheap. I love the mock dock and squid options. The noodles here are amazing. I strongly recommend the drunken noodles. The lunch special is pretty good too :) read more

The shumai was good, but I also got basil chicken Thai, which was below average. OK place for some appetizers but seems like they use the same base for most things. read more

I like this place, mostly because it's conveniently close to where I work, but their food is very good, so I go there often for lunch. Unfortunately I've only ordered the same two items but they're very good so I stick with it. Pad Thai with shrimp or Drunken Noodles with shrimp. I only have one advise don't order through an app, you won't get the lunch specials, call in your order by phone, it's a better value and you'll save money. read more

One of my favorite Thai places in Harlem. The drunken noodles are my go-to and they're perfectly spicy and a great portion size. I've also had the pad thai, curry and dumplings and they're all hits. A quick, affordable option that never misses. read more

Charm is officially my favorite Thai takeout spot in the Harlem/upper west side area. Yesterday I got the lunch special which is ONLY $8.50 for an entree and appetizer. I got the red curry spicy and chicken tom yum soup. The chicken red curry is my absolute favorite and the lunch special is such a great deal. My roommate got the drunken noodles lunch special and loved it. I love that Charms red curry is so flavorful and they put slot of chicken in so you totally get your money's worth. For $8.50 I had lunch yesterday and have leftovers to eat today so I don't have to go out during our nyc snowstorm. Service is also incredibly kind, I went in person for the first time yesterday and realized now that this is a take out strictly joint, there is NO seating. The woman at the register so kindly gave me hand sanitizer from her own bag when I asked if they had any. Love this place, its now my go-to. read more

This is definitely my go-to Thai takeout spot in the neighborhood. It's tasty, affordable and they are fast! I'm not going to lie though, there have been days where the food was off a little (by taste, spice level or lacking veggie variety) but never too far off where I stop ordering. They also have a pretty good lunch special that includes an appetizer but sans lunch special, still affordable! read more

Charm Thai has officially usurped our old neighborhood favorite and become our go-to for Thai delivery. The food is consistently hot, just the right level of spice, and unfailingly good. Drunken noodles takes the cake! read more

I love the food from here. They always cater to my specifications, delivering excellent, high-quality, delicious meals every time. I particularly adore the green curry with extra tofu, but everything I've ever had from here has been scrumptious. Highly recommend. read more

Been passing by this place for what seemed like forever wondering 'would they ever open?' Went for a walk today and saw that beautiful 'Open' sign (conveniently sponsored by Seamless). Lets be clear; the name of the place is Charm Thai Express, but there's no other Charm Thai location in NYC to my knowledge. That said, the size of this place emphasizes 'Express' - there is only two chairs and a small ledge by the window if you want to 'dine in'. So the expectation is carry out or delivery (hence their 'Seamless' open sign). But if you're looking for them online it goes by the name Charm Thai (no express). The menu features most of the Thai staples folks come to know/love. One nice aspect is the prices are flat no matter the style of preparation - that means chicken pad Thai is the same price as pineapple rice with chicken. The price changes depending on the type of meat you order. Looking forward to future Thai runs (both pick-up and delivery since this place is about two or so blocks from me). Welcome to Harlem Charm Thai. read more

this is a go to for me. the lunch specials are a great deal. the tom yum soup is yummy. sometimes i don't like the chicken, i feel like it can be over cooked at times and takes forever to chew. but the flavors of the rice and curries are on point! also love the wings. this place is take out only, there's no space to sit and and eat. read more

So so delicious every single time. My go to Thai restaurant! The food is always fresh and flavorful, and it gets delivered fairly quickly. Would highly recommend! read more

Amazing lunch specials! For $8.50, you get an entree and an appetizer-- I've ordered from this place through Seamless countless number of times and never had a bad experience with it. Delivery was prompt and it's always packaged nicely. I either order their Chicken Drunken Noodle or Chicken Pad Thai and both are delicious! Chicken is well-seasoned and cooked perfectly. With its incredible price, hearty portions, delicious food, I highly recommend this place! read more

Five stars for the best Thai in Harlem/UWS. I have never ordered a dish that wasn't cooked perfectly. I'm obsessed with their massaman curry w/mock duck, pineapple or basil fried rice and pad Thai. I normally order the garlic entree w/shrimp for hubby (I'm allergic to shellfish) and he devours it every time. The kids also love their chili wings. Finally, make sure if you order a Thai iced tea, ask for it without ice! read more

Finding a new Asian Fusion spot to order delivery from is like searching for a new barber you can trust with cutting your hair for the first time. Sure, if you receive solid recommendations you feel a bit better about the odds of having a positive experience, but deep down you know there's a chance for significant and memorable disappointment. Well, Covid 19 has brought me to the precipice once again, my well known favorite Chinese food spot was closed, it had been so long since I tried another similar place, I had to go experimenting. Now, I know that Charm Thai, is, well, a Thai food restaurant. But it had the dumplings and egg rolls, noodles and sweet and savory flavors I was looking for on the menu. I found this place through seamless, and after a quick validation on Yelp, I decided to go for it. My wife went with an obviously Thai dish, Chicken Pad Thai. I ordered Sweet and Sour Duck (again I had a taste for Chinese, so this order called out to that). I also ordered the Won Ton Soup, which was fantastic. In addition to a $10 dumpling sampler that came with spring rolls, shrimp rolls, Shumai and Chicken Samosas. Wow was this tasty, and came with like 4 sauces. If you have ever eaten with me, you know I love sauces. Delivery Details: Food arrived in like 40 mins, which was right on time. It arrived hot, and everything was where it should be. Also, everything tasted amazing. I have to admit a delivery duck order is ambitious at best, but believe me when I say they delivered (pardon the pun), I would definitely order again. My wife's Pad Thai was good too - taken as a whole, the whole experience was very positive. I am happy to say I have a new Thai place to order from. But good to know they can also help me scratch that Chinese food like itch if in a pinch. Let me stop there, clearly this is a Covid induced review. Hope all are doing what's required to stay safe.
