Incredible flavors that hold up whether you dine in or order delivery. The Pad See Ew and fried rice are always 10/10 Really great spot read more

Charming small restaurant serving up Authentic Thai food with a twist. Their menu design is the cutest I have ever seen. Our waitress was super sweet, oddly there was only one other table in there so she was very attentive. We shared the Crab Curry Binge, Supreme Pad Thai and Rainbow Roll. The food was delicious. The deconstructed pad Thai was a nice presentation. Definitely try some of their fancy mock/cocktails. read more

Such a cute and intimate Thai spot in Brooklyn. The space is small but cozy, which made the vibe even better. My cousin and I shared the pad Thai and tom yum soup as our girl dinner, and it was perfect. The pad Thai was slightly on the sweeter side but still really good, and the soup was a 10 out of 10. The menu was one of my favorite parts since each dish had a Polaroid-style photo, which made it so fun and adorable. Portions are generous, the menu is very versatile, and everything we saw coming out looked amazing. Definitely recommend if you're in the Greenpoint or Brooklyn area. read more

First and foremost what a find !! Chinta is a gem ! Been to greenpoint a lot this summer but never stumbled across this place. We sat outside but the ambiance inside was very pleasant. The service outstanding & the menu.. well I won't spoil it ;) We got an order of plain wings and the Zapp. The plain came with this flavorful chilli honey that was so good we had to order extra. The zapp wings were BEST WINGS EVER. So delicious we also ordered extra. For mains we shared crab fried rice that was perfect & the spaghetti sai-oua. The spaghetti was 9/10 because I wasn't a fan of the sausages but I still would recommend! I'll be coming back here very soon ! read more

Amazing Thai spot in Greenpoint! My friend and I walked in shortly before 6:30 PM on a Friday and got lucky with a walk-in. Dapper snapper was great, but the kao soi gai was the showstopper. Highly recommend getting that. 4.5 stars. read more

I went to Chinta Thai with a friend after work on a Friday night. We ordered the Ka Praw Gai Khai Dow and the supreme Pad Thai. The food was exquisite and so flavorful. The soft shell crab was amazing and fresh. The Ka Praw Gai is a spicy dish and I can definitely vouch that this dish is spicy. I like spicy and typically can handle it well but by the end of finishing this meal I need to chug a ton of water to help me with the spiciness. I am definitely not complaining at all about the dish. The dish was so so good. The service was great and attentive from the staff. They constantly checked up on us to see if we were okay and needed anything else and refilled our water cups often. The ambiance was great and lively. We had a 8pm reservation and arrived a tab bit late and the staff quickly helped us out in getting seated right away. We sat outdoors as it was a nice warm evening. The interior of the restaurant is a bit small but they also have outdoor seating available. This is such a cute Thai restaurant, the food is so great, and with excellent customer service I can't say one negative thing about this establishment as I left so happy dining here. Unfortunately, I completely forgot to take pictures while dining at Chinta Thai as I was enjoying the moment in real time but I'd say a 10/10 Thai restaurant in Greenpoint. read more

Came here with a group of four and shared many dishes. We got the minced chicken, pot of gold, and the winter special. Would definitely order one dish per person. Personally, the favorite was the pot of gold. Definitely not something I have seen at other Thai restaurants before. I liked how it was a semi sweet rice with lots of veggies and seafood on top. The minced chicken was good, and tastes like basil and pork dishes at other restaurants. The winter special was also delicious, but finish it quickly, or else the noodles will soak up all the sauce and cool, which is not as good. We ended up being seated outdoors with no reservation on a Friday night, and it was pretty quick, but can definitely see this place getting more popular. read more

Walk-in for 2 on Thursday dinner. I've ordered takeout from here a few times and every time has been excellent. Glad to experience the in-person dining with friendly service. Vibe is casual nice. I loved the color theme of red and tan, to give a modern and inviting look, and the floor to ceiling windows give the place an openness making it appear more spacious. Loved their menu design in a book form with laminated pages and page markers! It's a nice added detail that I appreciate from restaurants that make the experience that much better. Both dishes we got were delicious and spicy. You can tell each one was prepared as an art form. The house sauce on the furious calamari and on the side was delish. The flavor on my Kao Soi Gai was on point, a bit spicy but I enjoyed it. My boyfriend loved the Ka Praw Gai Khai Dow as it was spicy to his liking and protein rich. read more

Came in during brunch hours on Saturday because I saw a picture on Yelp of some pandan pancakes only to find out there was no brunch menu, so we were a little bummed about that. But it was cute inside and the servers were really nice. For two of us, we ordered: - Zaab Wings (yummm) - Tom Yum Soup (solid, not that spicy) - Krapow Moo Krob (sweeter than what I prefer with mostly fatty pieces) - Supreme Pad Thai (so good - reminded us of Pad Thai that we had in Krabi, Thailand) Overall we had a really good meal. Hope they consider bringing the pandan pancakes back (if they ever had them) because I've been on a real pancake kick lately. read more

The food is very good! I am not sure if it is the most authentic or even tried to make authentic Thai per se. Definitely would return. Service is ok, nothing lacking or standing out. The ambience is only a regular restaurants so not necessary for special occasions. However, the food could make it up. Short ribs - off the bone, tender and very flavorful Crab fried rice - my fav dish and not even expensive; the crab taste super fresh, not oily, perfectly seasoned especially with the sweetness of the crab Broken rice with Egg - also very good but not as special as the other two; well seasoned when eat with the rice read more

I've been wanting to try this moody yet inviting entrant into the Greenpoint dining scene for some time. I'm glad I finally did, as the "impossible" larb burger is one of the more exciting dishes I've tried so far in 2025. The larb burger is a reimagining of the classic Thai salad employing sticky rice as buns, served with a fire engine-red chutney that gives the dish some punch. (Practically speaking the burger needs to be de-constructed into classic larb form for consumption, but it's a nice aesthetic touch nonetheless.) read more

Had early dinner here yesterday with a friend. I read reviews prior to picking this restaurant and was curious how it is. It is a small restaurant with seating inside and outdoors. We were greeted by the host and was given the option where we prefer to sit and we picked inside as it's getting chilly lately in NY. Our host name is Toto, very pleasant and really nice. He chatted with us which is a plus and so much fun! We chose three items to share- we got the curry puff- three round pastries filled with these delicious chicken, potato and curry flavor which you dipped into this oniony sweet sauce. Also got the crab mango vibes which is part of their summer menu - a deep fried soft shell crab topped with mango salad- absolutely delish! The third dish is the chicken pad see ew - basic thai dish but my comfort food, always love it. And the finale is of course, the mango sticky rice with the rich coconut cream on top! My tummy was full and my mood uplifted. Definitely a must try and of course I will come back and try more of their dishes! read more

Came here for a lovely dinner! Immediately I was charmed by the cute decor - their menus are inside books so it looks like you're reading when you're perusing the menu. We got the tofu massaman for an app, which had a great sauce. The real star were the mains, the pad see ew and the garlic sautéed (both with chicken). For some reason, I found the flavors to be extremely saturated and somehow better than normal versions of these dishes I've had at other Thai restaurants. Highly recommend. It came out to about $50 before tax and tip, which was very reasonable for a night out. Love this spot! read more

Thank you snowstorm... you forced me to celebrate an anniversary dinner local with last minute reservations. On the "to try" list for quite some time we finally made it to Chinta Thai. Reservation made same day online with ease, table for two noting we were celebrating our anniversary. While we were seated right away, there was no acknowledgment of our special occasion. The concept and offerings were interesting with the menu reading like a fairytale storybook. Loved the concept and inclusion of pics. Ordered a happy hour cocktail... and a regular cocktail a couple appetizer and main entrees... half of the food was room temp upon receipt. They politely (and without hesitation) warmed it up upon request, as I do prefer my rice steaming hot and my food hotter than received. The pork appetizer was full of flavor and delicately balanced jaew sauce with the vermicelli and lettuce. Curious calamari was the mouth feel I didn't know I needed.. crunchy on the surface and tender in the inside, although fried no trace of oil to be seen. Garlic sautéed shrimp was fresh and cooked to perfection (despite the temp issue), however I would've preferred a stronger garlic taste that I'm accustomed to with Thai food. The prawns were held in high regard, as we chewed the heads ...extracting all the flavors. Also cooked well, but not served piping hot. Couple of signature cocktails with smoky mezcal.... And having to pack some to go, as the belly had "no more room at the inn". Overall a delicious dinner, despite the hiccups they were easily corrected. Minus a star for food temp, incorrect itemized bill and failure to mention loyalty program... most of which were corrected when addressed. Worth another attempt to see if they get it all right... but maybe for lunch. read more

Great experience, went during lunch time and was able to try the supreme pad Thai and Pot of gold! Very unique presentation, I really enjoyed the addition of soft shell crab with pad Thai & the jumbo fresh shrimps which came with a sticky Chinese sausage clay pot rice in the pot of gold. The Thai coffee and Thai ice tea were great, refreshing! Also had the summer special fried taro with a spicy sauce which was interesting.

4.5, rounding to 5. Chinta Thai is probably one of my top Thai restaurants in terms of flavor! We managed to snag a reservation for 6:30, for a group of 4. There was a bit of delay getting us seated, but we were in no rush. We started off with the Zaab wings and mushroom curry balls. Really great appetizers bursting with flavor. After, we got the Angry Duck, Pad thai, and Ribs. Out of these three, the ribs leaned more on the Chinese side in terms of flavor. For dessert, we got the mango sticky rice and sorbet. Luckily, we caught the tail end of the mango season. These mangos were SO GOOD. This would have been a 5 star meal -- the only qualm I have is that the portions were small for the price we paid. But that's just classic New York, businesses have to make a living somehow. read more

Cute Thai spot in Greenpoint with friendly staff and a good atmosphere. Food wise: Zaab Wings: 4.5/5, pretty solid, punch flavor. Not a huge fan of the texture where the seasoning is a rub on top rather than baked into some batter. Tom Yum: 3.5/5, classic but I've had better. Pork Belly Entree: 3/5. Not a huge fan, a bit disappointing, wouldn't get again. Would return and re-order the Zaab wings, but try new dishes beyond that. read more

I had a pad thai craving so I decided to come here. The pad thai is good. It has different spice levels. I got the spiciest level. It was good, but I wish there was an even spicier option. The summer rolls were meh. But I really did like the pad thai here, so I will be coming back for that and to try the other options. read more

Solid Thai cuisine in Greenpoint. A humble restaurant size with a couple of tables where they use the most of their space. I'd recommend it for small parties of 2-4 max. They have a couple of outdoor tables where we were sat during a late, humid evening. Sometimes between serving indoor and outdoor tables, service outside can falter but I was impressed by their ability to attend to us promptly and check on us frequently. The staff displayed lots of hospitality, which I think makes Chinta Thai stand out a more memorable experience. Great food - well seasoned som tum with the right amount of spicy, and I enjoy their offerings of signature spins on classic dishes such as the pad thai. read more

I tried the curry shroom balls, which is basically green curry with mushroom fritters as the protein. The curry was rich and complex, packed with vegetables and quite savory. The mushroom fritters were also full of flavor. The dish comes with white rice. Prices were reasonable at $22 before tax and tip. For a generous portion. This was a great choice for a unique spin on a classic dish. read more

One of the best Thai places in Brooklyn that just opened. So happy that this place opened up and is close by to where we live. The weather has been unbearable lately, so my boyfriend and I ordered delivery. We got the Tom Kha, Green curry, Pad See Eew, Fried Rice, Wings, and papaya salad. There was an explosion of flavors and we were thoroughly delighted with the portions and taste. I would advise a little less salty seasoning on the wings as well as making the Tom Kha a little more soupy. I do love coconut so much, but I think if they made it more soupy with a little more chicken broth, it'd be perfect. Definitely will return and excited to dine inside next time with my boyfriend and or with friends. Already started raving about Chinta Thai to our neighbors and friends! read more

Guys, I haven't opened Yelp in months, but I had to do something to commemorate this meal I just had. I put some chicken on some sticky rice on some papaya salad on some lettuce.

Came last night for a friends birthday, it was 7 of us so we packed the place out pretty good. I'll say this, this is a small place with some BIG food with BIG flavors! The portion size was great, enough to pass around a taste. The chinta Margarita was excellent, could have been a bit stronger but that's just me. The Crab Fried Rice was amazing but the star of the show was the prawns in garlic sauce. Probably top 5 best prawn dishes I've ever had in my life, I probably would have licked the plate if I could it was great. I'll DEFINITELY be back for that. Overall, everyone enjoyed their food. The restaurant was accommodating and lighthearted and made us feel welcome. Price point is good too. Overall I'll definitely be back! read more

Astoundingly good food, wonderful, friendly staff. Pretty much right since it opened, it's been jam packed every night -- because it's that good. They have all the classics you'd expect at an American Thai restaurant, and the ones I've had are great. But perhaps what's most special is their less common dishes and fusion ideas -- I particularly love their Spaghetti Sai-Oua. read more

Middle of the road Thai spot with absurd pricing. I got the lunch special Pad See Ew and the Tom Kha soup with chicken. The soup was $14 and heavy on the coconut milk. I found it to be a bit out of balance and not very fragrant. It was more savory and I could taste and smell a lot of fish sauce. The Pad See Ew was average and the noodles were broken up, but I didn't mind that too much. The side salad included some brown wilted greens and an unappealing purple sauce. I did not try it. The spring rolls were fine but mostly comprised of noodles inside. I am hoping it was just an off day for Chinta Thai. read more

This thai spot was a hidden gem! We visited Chinta Thai on a weekend afternoon and was able to get seated immediately. I was pleasantly surprised with the Zaab Wings, they were my favorite dish by far. It was heavy on the citrusy flavor, and not too spicy. I liked the Tom Yum soup, and the Pork Belly entree was good but could've done without. I highly recommend the Zaab Wings, but would probably skip the others when visiting again. The thai tea hit the spot, and the service was amazing as well! They changed our plates between dishes, and even gave us wet wipes before and after the wings so our hands were clean. I'd say the portions are pretty small for the price but still satisfying for us two. Can't wait to come back to try other options! read more

Long story short, this has got to be the most underrated contender for best Thai food in NYC. Chinta is a charming authentic Thai spot in Greenpoint worth a visit for a special occasion or a casual weeknight dinner. I came for a Saturday date night with a 6:30pm reservation (thankfully made several days earlier, as there was a handful of parties waiting for tables when I got there). Even with such a beautiful space and fantastic servers, the food is still the star here. For two people, we got 2 apps and 2 entrees -- calamari, wings zaab style, the supreme pad Thai, and the chicken set. Zaab style wings blew me away - the tangy Thai dry rub is a masterpiece. As a huge fan of SE Asian food, I'm always looking for the stamp for authenticity through the subtle yes unmistakable sourness of tamarind and lime juice. It's sour and spicy and just plain delicious. Calamari was good though not particularly memorable. No complaints but would definitely opt to try something more specific to Thai food next time. Supreme pad Thai - again, the perfect flavor profile of an authentic pad Thai, it balanced spice, sugar, and sour to make a stunning pad Thai. It's bundled up in a thin egg and topped with a crispy soft shell crab. It's a must ... basically the centerpiece for our dinner. Chicken set - this grabbed my attention for its variety, as the dish has 2 pieces of chicken, a tangy papaya salad, mixed greens, and sticky rice on the side. It also comes with pork rinds which we requested they leave off. The chicken is cooked well but the star for me was the papaya salad. Definitely want to come back and get some salads for starters because it works well as a palate cleanser. Chinta perfectly balances classy with cozy. It's a small shop yet has a full bar with incredible imaginative cocktails. We were at a bar before dinner so didn't have much appetite to drink but the cocktails are so intriguing I want to try them all!!! An awesome date night and the bill came out to just under $100 with food and a cocktail. I've paid much more for much less!! I really have no complaints and can't wait to come back. I just love trying new small businesses and I'm grateful to have found Chinta. Go Chinta! I'm a fan for life!! read more

Got their chicken dish with sticky rice, tasted my friends mango mock-tail. The mango drink was very tasty - hints of ginger - and quite refreshing.

I would say this was good but not amazing. Some things to note- service; very pushy- asked us 3x what we wanted to order before our last guest arrived. Really loud acoustics in the space, too small of a restaurant. I asked for an extra plate and the server gave me attitude about it. Don't feel that they have it really nailed down service wise. The dishes were beautifully presented and the food was good but there are better Thai spots. The chive pancakes and sauce was the best item we had. We also ordered crab fried rice and chicken pad Thai. Crab fried rice was overly fishy for my taste and lacked flavor and the chicken pad Thai was good but nothing special sadly. I really wanted to give this a better review but alas read more
