    Pad Thai
    Cara T.

    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!

    Basil Fried Rice

    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!

    Thai Basil Fried Rice Lunch Special
    Alexus S.

    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!!

    Garlic Sauce w tofu- nicely cooked and nice veggies.

    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.

    Red curry chicken
    Andrew T.

    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.

    Pad Thai
    Jonghan L.

    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.

    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!

    Pad Thai
    Jonathan C.

    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.

    Pad Thai
    Jasmine S.

    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.

    Vegetable dumplings and spring rolls
    Hunter S.

    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.

    Food is decent, especially the green curry and drunken noodles. but there was a cockroach in my curry today :( they did refund my order when I called to let them know.

    This is an excellent restaurant to go to for Thai cuisine. We went after watching a Broadway show…read more And made reservations for 4 people for 9pm. We were seated promptly , then given our customary beverage orders (Thai iced tea, of course). And while mulling over the menu with excellent choices , our server Salina suggested certain items for dinner. Her recommendations were spot on. We tried the papaya salad, soft shell crab, deboned duck, crispy pork with noodles. And the crispy branzino... everything was devoured quickly!! The dishes were full of flavor, but some were lacking in spiciness(our request really since we had a friend who could not tolerate spices). The post-meal dessert was very good as well. We had a wonderful time dining, and the service was top-notch. Thanks, Salina...!!!

The interior was super nice, with very nice decors hung all around the restaurant. They had two floors, especially second floor was massive, so they were able to sit a lot guests. They had the both regular, lunch special and drinks menu. I ordered the crab fried rice dish from lunch menu. It came with a salad bowl. The salad just had lettuce and cherry tomatoes, mixed with some delicious dressing. The crab fried rice came with some cucumbers and two sauces. The sauces had such spicy kick, they enhanced the flavor of the rice and crab so much. They were excellent dipping sauce for the cucumbers too. Just loved the whole dish. Being lunch special, the portion was small, so I was sad when the plate was empty but I was still craving for more. For $32, I feel they could have served a bit more. But other lunch menu dishes were mostly around $18. The service was excellent. Several staff members constantly walked around the floor like Marshals, takings ordering, serving dishes, refilling water, taking out empty dishes, and doing checkouts right on the spot. After guests left, they were turning over the empty tables super quickly. No wonder we a table in such short time. Since it's so close to my work place, I'll be back here soon for sure to try other dishes.

They had a very respectable pad see ew beef - sweet and savory, good amount of egg, a little stronger bitter broccoli but otherwise a good dish, good quantity to fill you up even though in the bowl it seemed smaller than it actually was with the rice noodle cooked well. The steamed sea bass with garlic and lime (Pla Neueng Manow) had beautifully cooked sea bass with a very nice spicy/sour/savory green garlic sauce which I'll have to try again. The fried version is supposedly very good, too, and the one person that always gets the basil fried rice had a wonderful aroma that we'll have to try again later. Mango sticky rice was a tasty dessert (although we probably didn't need the 3 orders they recommended for our table of 6), though usually like I like the purple rice version better, and came with a very cute shovel spoon. They gave a free birthday dessert of caramel delight which was ok, crumbly and sweet (I'm not a caramel fan but others liked it). Overall, good experience and solid food - while not the best Thai I've ever had, this certainly is a keeper for the Midtown East area. Will come again soon to try the lunch specials! Service was a little slow due to how busy they were, but do appreciate the birthday candle for the birthday friend!

A quick ride on the LIRR or E Train will have you enjoying some of the best Thai food NYC has to offer. For me it all started with their Shrimp Croquettes that were fried to perfection and packed with flavor, then it was the Crispy Pork Belly, and for a second, I had to ask myself, am I in the Dominican Republic?! The crunch, seasoning, and flavor in every bite let me know immediately that they understood the crispy pork belly assignment! Let's not forget the cocktails! Each drink paired beautifully with the appetizers and dishes throughout our dining experience. Now, let's talk about the entrées. Their menu ranges from specialty seafood dishes to authentic, modern Thai cuisine. As a seafood lover, I especially appreciated the generous amount of Lump Crab meat in the Southern Crab Curry. The flavor was rich, comforting, and absolutely worth ordering. But the unexpected STAR of the night was the #TaroCustard! Who knew that the "everything bagel energy" could transfer so effortlessly into a dessert?! It was those crispy fried shallots that did it for me! If you're a true #Foodie, you already know sometimes it's that unexpected flavor assist/combination that creates pure magic on your tongue. I've had some great Thai Food Experiences in NYC but Charoen Krung Restaurant & Bar has now entered the chat as my new found favorite!

These were new on the summer menu and I hope they stay! The dipping sauce in the calamari was sweet, tangy and syrupy with some heat but not too sweet. It was good without the sauce but with it, made it even better. The soft shell crab larb, wow, blew us away. The crunch and heat factor with the basil "salad" was out of this world. It is definitely spicy but is soo tasty. From their "privileged" menu, we had the duck chu chee which is a crispy roasted duck in a creamy mildly spicy red curry - the duck and curry was soo bomb, super crispy and stands out from other places. Finally the Royal Thai Spiced Lamb which is grilled lamb chops with karee curry sauce, snow pea tips and roti, sooo flavorful and so good. The veggies and the lamb paired so well with the curry sauce. It was not gamey or chewy but after all the appetizers I could not finish this dish. For dessert, we did try the Khao Neaw Puak which is a taro sticky rice with coconut ice cream. Again different but I think I will pass on this next time. We loved the food and will definitely be back!

I happily introduced her to my two favorite go tos: the crab fried rice and the steamed branzino. The crab fried rice was nothing like I was used to. Even at some of the other notable Thai restaurants I've been to, their crab fried rice presentation was basic compared to this one. The egg on this fried rice was soft and melty the soon it touches your tongue, and we didn't even have to chew it. It melted perfectly with the buttery crab and the rice was so warm and soft. It was a sizable portion but it didn't take us long to gobble it all down. Then came the steamed branzino. The presentation here I want to say is so unique that it blew me away. The fish was cut so that the head and tail of the fish was chopped off (a little disappointed but glad it was clean cut), the fish was so soft you would question if it was even fish...the soup was lightly seasoned with chili and lime and it wasn't super overpoweringly spicy that you can still taste the fish flavor. Everything was delicious and they even had a pre fixe menu that I will definitely come back and try again! My drink I ordered was also very creative and a mix of strong bourbon with the creaminess of Thai tea. Very interesting combination but I don't hate it! It was strong and welcoming and I want to try the other drinks when I come back as well. As pictured, the drink menu is beautiful and our server came back and forth to make sure everything was okay. We actually stayed past closing hours but they weren't rushing us (which was very hospitable of them)

My friend ordered the pork chop for his entree and it came with two large chops. Good to take back as leftovers.
