First time at this establishment - the food was top notch and the service was fantastic (shout out to Joshua)! We got two rounds of the Melon and lychee cocktails (forgot the names), the pork belly (100/10), crab fried rice (100/10) and the steamed fish (100/10), plus the sticky rice dessert. 10/10/10 would recommend!! We will be back!!! read more

Fffu you, Fish Cheeks! I am revolted by the takeout order I just received. I ordered the tilefish curry. Not only was the curry sauce missing, but the fish that arrived was so rubbery, trying to choke a piece down was like chewing on bubblegum. I cannot believe this restaurant would serve such a dish. Like, absolutely disgusting. I paid $14 for some corn salad. It was about half a cup of it. I remember eating at this restaurant years ago and enjoying it. Tried calling the restaurant 4 times and couldn't get through to a human. I will never touch this place again. read more

My friend and I both graduated from NYU together in the field of Social Work and decided to meet up as a congratulations lunch and I was going to meet with her to help her study for the ASWB exam. She chose the restaurant Fish Cheeks and I was really excited to try it. When I got to the restaurant, I wasn't aware that we needed to make a reservation in order to get a table. Luckily a table was open for two people and we were able to be seated despite how busy it was. I ordered the green curry which was vegan and included Thai basil, red finger chili, roasted seasonal vegetables, and served with rice. My friend ordered the coconut crab curry which has three chili peppers next to it on the menu and includes southern-style curry with crab meat, house-made curry paste, betel leaf, makrut lime leaf, and also served with rice. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was casual, but also classy. Our food came out relatively quickly and the person who was serving us was very informative and answered all of our questions. I really enjoyed my time at Fish Cheeks and it's the perfect place to eat amazing food and catch up with a friend. read more

Had a good lunch here at Fish Cheeks -- the duck curry, prawn karee, and crab fried rice were very authentic, delicious and flavorful. Definitely have to make a reservation since they get really full on the weekends. The service was great as well with food arriving within 10 minutes of ordering, and our waitress was friendly and attentive. The space was a little bit tight and loud but that's okay. :) I also personally felt that the prices were a little higher than other Thai places around the neighborhood. Overall satisfactory dining experience! read more

Yummy spot!! We had a rez for 12 on a sat and it was filling up as soon as it opened. The crab fried rice, crab curry, morning glory, all very satisfactory. We were 2 and finished everything- altho we were def full im ngl its like wild for us to go to a thai spot, order 3 things, and not have left overs (in other words, the portions r on the smaller side) More spacious inside than i would expect from this type of place. Eavesdropped on two tech bros next to us giving pep talks on how to be good managers/leaders. Want to come back and try the vegan stuff read more

Fish Cheeks - Crab Fried Rice, Coconut Crab Curry - Seafood Near Me - New York, New York

Had a great time at Fish Cheeks! I've been meaning to come to this Resturant in a while since I saw it on social media. I was seated immediately for my 1:30pm appointment. The Thai Iced Tea is a classic and was delicious. The Zabb wings were spicy, sour, and a little sweet. For someone like me who is very sensitive to spice, I found this actually pretty spicy and had my eyes watering, so be forewarned! If you're very spice tolerant, then I think this would be the perfect amount of spice for you, if not spicy enough. They do not do any modifications so I could not ask them to lower the spice level. The steamed fish was also advertised as mildly spicy, but it did not taste spicy at all. It was wonderfully seasoned with a lot of herbs and lime, salty, and with a nice tangy soup. I also got the crab fried rice, which I heard taste great with the crab curry but I couldn't handle that spice or that much food. Regardless, it was delicious on its own or with the steamed fish. To be honest, I'm not that interested in trying the other items after I found out that you can't adjust the spice level. I'd probably not return, but that's only because I have terrible spice tolerance - not because it wasn't good! Service was excellent and food came out very quickly. Would recommend to someone who loves Thai food :) read more

My friend and I came here for dinner because of their gluten free menu, but more importantly we want to try this restaurant. We were greeted with complimentary gluten free shrimp chips with a spicy chili jam. These were addicting. We started off with the tongue cheek mocktail and cocktail versions. Both were tasty and paired well with the following dishes: Special Tom Yum Soup - this was off the menu special item of that day. The spicy sour soup was comforting and filled with a variety of shellfish: Squid, shrimp, Mussels and fish. Too bad this is not a regular item on their menu. Crab Fried Rice - this dish is solid definitely worth ordering as quality and quantity is on par with Manhattan prices. I even took some leftovers home which my parents ended up consuming. Steamed Fish with Thai herbs - this dish is served hot; the branzino is filleted as it fell off the bone. The cilantro lime broth was very good even comparable to the ones I've had in other Thai restaurants in Queens. We devoured everything except the head and brought that home for the Asian parents to consume. Service was great. Our server was knowledgeable. The dishes are served family style so solo dining is not ideal. Ambiance was smaller than I thought, there is a small instep to get to the bathroom. However, great place worth trying especially for restaurant week or even a small group lunch or dinner. read more

We had a great waiter, Joshua, who guide us through the menu. Since I don't eat meat, I ended up eating Tofu Pad with red chili peppers with green beans and it was delicious! I was concerned because I don't eat shellfish or anything on the menu but this place doesn't disappoint. Must go! read more

Super delicious Thai food! I tried the following items: 1) green curry, 2) crab fried rice, 3) pakboong fai dang (morning glory vegetable w/ chili, garlic + soybean). I loved the crab fried rice & pakboong fai dang (morning glory vegs) - superb! It was so flavorful. I would reorder these items next time. The green curry (vegan) was very interesting. The green curry sauce was delicious + had a nice spice kick to it. There were so many farmers market vegetables in it - some were a bit hard to chew but it was definitely very crunchy. Friendly staff + nice decor. read more

Fish Cheeks is one of those places I always recommend to my friends if they're craving Thai food. It's always a hustling and bustling spot, and the food hits every single time. For those that are spice lovers, Fish Cheeks is for you, they don't mess around! If your spice tolerance isn't good, BE WARNED!! My partner and I arrived at 7PM on a Monday. No matter what day it is, I highly recommend making a reservation! We were pretty hungry so we thought we ordered a lot, but we ended up finishing everything. The duck curry wasn't bad, but the portions were a bit on the smaller side, so I probably wouldn't get this again. The steamed fish is one of my favorites. If you're not a fan of sour things, this probably isn't for you. It's very lime heavy, but I LOVE it. The sautéed cabbage was so yummy and had the perfect amount of smokiness and char, but also a bit expensive for the small portion of cabbage. The crab fried rice is also a staple! Lots of crab chunks and a good dish to share. Fish Cheeks overall is a great spot for a family style dinner. It's not your typical Thai spot, and it's a go to of mine. Cant wait to come back! read more

We finally made it to Fish Cheeks after my friends saw a long line outside on their last NYC trip. This time, we were prepared and made a reservation a couple of weeks in advance--and I'm so glad we did. The ambience was vibrant and energetic but still felt elevated and welcoming. Think: tropical-chic meets modern Thai dining. Great music, good lighting, and a packed but well-run space. We started with a few drinks, and every cocktail we ordered was spot on--balanced, fun, and refreshing. The Thai iced tea was another standout. Creamy, sweet, and super satisfying. For food, we shared a few standout dishes: * The branzino was amazing--light, lemony, citrus-forward, and full of herbs and chilies. So flavorful and refreshing. We also asked for side of sambal and chili. * One friend ordered a glass noodle dish, which she said was good. * Another friend got the duck curry--rich and complex with a gentle heat that didn't overpower the dish. We didn't save room for dessert, but they mentioned they were nearly out of the mango sticky rice, which honestly made me wish I had more space. Next time, it's happening. Overall, Fish Cheeks gave us such a memorable experience--delicious food, great drinks, and an atmosphere that really made it feel like we were dining somewhere upscale in Thailand. I'd absolutely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for bold Thai flavors with a modern twist. read more

The reviews for this place are fully justified. It is AMAZING. The food is so good that we ended up going here TWO times out of our 6 nights in New York because we loved it so much the first time that we came back and ordered the same EXACT items the second time. My husband typically only likes Drunken Noodles at Thai restaurants and was hesitant to come here the first time. He changed his mind quickly LOL What we ordered: -Market Oysters(the Nam Jim sauce with it is a great touch) -Fried Prawns. Listed on their separate happy hour menu as a "March special" but it should be a permanent item that they add. The flavors of the sauce that the shrimp are cooked it are just phenomenal. My husband devoured it each time we went and said he if we lived closer he would stop by and order 3 of these and make it a dinner lol -Zabb wings. Tangy with a bit of a spicy kick. Almost like lemon pepper wings but definitely better and more refined in the taste. -Crab fried rice. This is one of the best fried rice dishes I have ever had. Nice big chunks of crab layered with the rice and eggs(we did ask for no scallions and cilantro). My picky eating son actually really liked it and was the only dish he ate lol This was also the only item we somehow forgot to get a picture of both times, go figure lol -Duck Curry. The skin on the Duck is crispy, the Duck is tender and juicy, and the curry that it sits on is so good that I ate the curry with my steamed rice. My husband HATES curry and even he loves this dish. -Pork Belly Chili Garlic. SPICY(my daughter's reaction) but oh so good that she insisted we get it the second time even though she said her mouth was burning the first time. The pork belly is so juicy and flavorful with the chili garlic spiced and sauce they use. The skin on the pork belly is crispy and addicting. My husband is not the biggest pork belly fan and he said this is the best pork belly he's ever had. -Steamed Fish with Thai Herbs. The restaurant's staple, for a reason. The fish comes out steaming hot on a burner and stays hot during your meal. The soup that it sits on is so flavorful and hits so many flavorful notes between being tangy and spicy. Fish is deboned and we found very little bones in it. A must get dish. Besides the wonderful food, the service was excellent. The hostess at the front is SO NICE and friendly and seems genuinely happy that we enjoyed our dinner so much that we came back a second time in a span of 3 days and especially that our kids enjoyed the food so much as it's not things they would typically eat. Our waitresses were also friendly and hospitable. Couldn't recommend this place more. read more

This place was a 10 out of 10 for my entire family. It was the best experience ever. This place is packed in for a good reason their food is packed with flavor and honestly such a memorable experience The staff is super friendly and very welcoming explaining the menu and making sure you're comfortable with what you're ordering. It is authentic Thai food so it's not going to be your typical pad Thai kind of place. Everything that was served was absolutely delicious and blasting with flavor. The wings have this scrumptious rub on them that just leaves you wanting more. We got a curry lamb dish that was to die for the curry was so divine. My mom absolutely loved it and then we also got a whole fish and that was so tender juicy and so fresh in line at the same time. This place also has a gluten-free menu so if you have celiac, that's something to flag. My mom has celiac, and they were very gracious with her allergy, making sure that everything we ordered did not have gluten in it or whatever she was eating did not have gluten in it. The restaurant itself is super clean. It's really beautiful inside lots of colors and a play on the Thai agriculture and ART. read more

Solid spot for Thai style seafood. The main highlight was the steamed fish with Thai herbs, very delicious and surprised that it was completely boneless. Loved the Thai herbs sauce made it paired really well. Oysters, crab fried rice, coconut curry, shrimp in 3 crab sauce was all good. I did order the $10 coco bah drink. In my opinion, it was nothing impressive. It was pretty pricey considering how small the glass was and half of it was ice. Overall service was fast and workers were nice. read more

We were lucky there was no wait & we were immediately seated (came here yesterday (sunday) ~3pm. Cute decor & comfortable seating. Staff + service was excellent. We ordered to share: 1) green curry, 2) crab fried rice, 3) pakboong fai dang (morning glory vegetable w/ chili, garlic + soybean). Green curry (vegan) which comes w/ a small side of rice - the green curry base was very delicious and smooth + had the right spice. This item to us was spicy enough - I had runny nose afterwards LOL. There was many different seasonal farmers market vegetables in this dish (cauliflower, thai eggplant, carrot, bell peppers, etc). We have never tried vegan green curry but it was an experience. Crab fried rice - WOW! I highly highly recommend this dish. The dish does not look special but when you eat it, it was orgasmic! So much flavors in this dish + the 2 sauces was amazing! I would reorder this next time! Pakboong fai dang (morning glory vegetable w/ chili, garlic, soybean) - This dish was also super amazing + flavorful! Super delicious! I would reorder this next time as well! Excellent Thai food! We will be back to try their other foods next time! read more

The thai steamed fish is a must and might be one of the best bites in the city. The fish was expertly deboned and cooked in a tangy sauce. Also recommend the shrimp in 3 crab sauce and the zabb wings for appetizers - both were amazingly flavorful. If you have room, the dessert which was pandan ice cream with jackfruit and sticky rice was unique and surprisingly delicious. The service was excellent as well. read more

Fish Cheeks - Steamed fish with thai herbs - Seafood Near Me - New York, New York

Holy moly! Best restaurant of 2025 so far. Wow this Thai food seafood does freshness and flavor right. We started with the shrimp chips which had an interesting sauce. The corn salad was refreshing and well balanced with intensity and acidity. The hallmark of this restaurant their crab curry which is the perfect of cream, sourness and spice. The crab chunks were also generous. The morning glory is a sleeper item on the menu and should not be forgotten. Furthermore, the tom yum was outstanding. Reddit sent me here and I genuinely don't regret it. Service was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. Extensive menu offerings. There are plenty of new times I look forward to trying nest time. Bathrooms had golden fish details. Modern, reasonably priced but upscale - loved by locals and out of towners alike. read more

My threshold for Thai places is high and this really surpassed my expectations. Came for New Years Day lunch. Easy enough to get a reservation and got a lovely corner booth. The vibe of the place overall is super cute. Bright colors, fun staff shirts. The menu is overwhelming only because there were so many things I wanted. Started with the cuttlefish. I honestly didn't remember the spice level indicated on the menu so I was shook when I tried the dipping sauce. The fish was so tender, a huge portion, and tasty. The dipping sauce packs a punch. So flavorful and a little numbing. Adding the cilantro on top of each bite really completes it. But the spice level is real. For mains, grabbed the crab curry and the scallops. The former I was a bit worried about as I don't typically love coconut forward dishes. However, looking around it seems that everyone gets this dish and I get why. Lovely seasoning, tons of crab. It's labeled as four chili peppers but I really don't understand that- would at most give it 2 (maybe even 1?). But I don't think that's a bad thing and maybe the coconut just balanced it out very well. The scallop dish was a surprise. One for how many scallops you're given. Two for how tender they are. And three for just the overall taste. I wasn't sure what this specific curry paste would taste like and it was so so lovely. Both dishes came with jasmine rice but we were given the option of switching one to sticky rice, which we did, and I found this to be a lot more manageable for dipping into the sauces. Also grabbed the pakboong fai dang side dish. I had never had this and wow was it spicy. Once I realized I thoroughly enjoyed it. Such rich combo of spice and the texture was not what I would have expected upon inspection. The happy hour is essentially all day and is a great deal for drinks. Service I felt like was mid until we accidentally dropped a glass and then I truly saw how attentive everyone in the restaurant could be. Overall such a great experience. It was ironically not our first choice but happened to be open for the holiday and now I'm so grateful it was! read more

Fish Cheeks - Coconut Crab Curry and choo chee scallops - Seafood Near Me - New York, New York

This might actually be one of the best Thai places I've ever had in my life. Highly recommended by a friend of mine so I knew I had to come. Immediately when you walk in, you get a cozy ambiance with dim lighting and modern interior design. the atmosphere is casual and lively, with lots of groups enjoying their meals. Get a reservation if you can since there was a line when we arrived. We had a reservation at 8pm and got seated right away. Our server was extremely friendly and attentive, giving us suggestions on dishes and checking in periodically. The food was INCREDIBLE and I'm still reminiscing about it: - complimentary shrimp chips: I had these chips growing up and it's been years since I've enjoyed one so this was the biggest surprise of the evening for me. Light and crispy, with fun shapes and colors. brought me back to my childhood and a very good starter. - somtum corn salad: chill and refreshing appetizer to start off your meal -- you can really taste the sweetness of the corn and I liked the crunchiness of the beans. The lime added a layer of sourness while the chili provided a spice kick. - pakboong fai dang: tender, well cooked and subtle flavors but there's spice from the red chili oil that enhanced the taste - steamed fish with thai herbs: this was SO GOOD. I couldn't believe how tender the fish was -- it literally melts in your mouth. The soup is sour and spicy which is a great contrast to the fish. Great portion sizes and prices were reasonable for this type of restaurant. If you're looking for a comforting meal in NoHo, would highly recommend Fish Cheeks! read more

TL;dr: excellent location! You can order a meal or you can get light snacks. I would absolutely come again. The ambiance was relaxed. The host was able to seat us without reservation so long as we left by 5:15 PM. This gave us nearly 50 minutes for lunch. Appreciate the accommodation! The menu had plenty of offerings and a solid list of drinks, but we wanted snacks and not a full dinner. I settled with the hazy IPA and ordered the following: Zabb wings - 5/5. No notes Somtum Corn salad - 4/5. Excellent dressing. Too small to share imo. Crispy rice salad & pork -4/5. This is absolutely delicious, but it can be a bit too salty. The dish is served with some cashews, which provides relief from the saltiness at the right moment, but not enough were given. We ordered rice to help balance out the saltiness, but it didn't taste the same. This dish needs more cashews. read more

Fish Cheeks was highly recommended by both family and friends, and I finally got to visit! The restaurant has both outdoor and indoor seating. It's pretty dark and loud once inside but def part of the overall ambiance. Our server's friendly and checked in on us often. Corn salad had a kick but was still sweet, light, and refreshing. Crab Woosen was one of the few non-spicy options and it didn't disappoint in terms of flavors. Crab meat had some shells and cartilage that I had to pick out from my mouth though. Ice cream Bo Lan was the highlight! The jackfruit pandan ice cream was absolutely delicious and it went so well with the sticky rice and evaporated milk. I would totally just come for drinks and dessert. Sadly, I had to dock off 1 star since customization to less spicy/non-spicy was not available. I really cannot handle spice so I wasn't able to try a lot of the dishes. read more

The food was delicious. Our server at the bar, Jordan was charming and we enjoyed talking to her. We came all the way from California to have the fried chicken and it did not disappoint one bit. That, an order of pork belly and crab fried rice and we were stuffed. Loved it all. This place is cute, trendy but very popular. Expect to wait. It is worth it in the end. I'm actually giving this place a 4.5. Almost made it to 5 stars. The hostess' blew it. Not paying attention and chatting away with each other to even care, it seemed. We would have waited all evening if we hadn't gone up to check on our place in the queue. read more

I'm kind of mortified by how expensive this place is. But then again, we're in Manhattan, competing with other upscale restaurants and high rent. My chicken was really well seasoned, and very soft. I was somewhat shocked to learn rice had to be ordered separately, though. I'm not sure if that's their way of saving rich that goes untouched or making an extra dollar, but I was a little surprised. That never happened to me at any Thai place I've been to. The open kitchen and the hot weather will make a perfect ground for attracting a fly here and there, but that didn't bother me. It's summer in NY and with us now being considered subtropics, it's probably something more of us have to start accepting. Overall, charging extra for rice and a Thai iced tea being $8 was somewhat unexpected to me, but the ambiance of the place and the presentation of the food might well be worth splurging on. read more

Here's how I knew this place was a 5 star for me. I came back home yesterday night and while reheating the frozen leftovers from Fish Cheeks I was thinking 'Man if I go back to NYC for Thai food I would go back to Fish Cheeks again.' This thought crossed my mind, with the gazillion dining options NYC has, that I have not gone to yet. I knew we would be visiting the city so I got in an early dinner res on Memorial day. We were early by 30 minutes but they still got us seated right away- and this was restaurant was PACKED at 5pm. Glad I had a res because I could see a line forming out the door within 10 minutes of sitting down. I liked the fishy decor, with the lighting and the fish baskets hanging overhead. More so I also liked the color scheme- red, yellow and teal. But man the food. So much to choose from- we took the easy way out and did the set menu for 2 for $140. We chose option A which is the Zabb Wings, the Mussels Gorlae, the Steamed Fish with herbs, Crab Fried Rice, Rawaaeng Duck Curry and the Pakboong Fai Dang. What can I say about the Zabb Wings that hasn't been said. I think it speaks for itself that they sell the Zabb seasoning as retail. The sweet and sour punch of the dusting on the freshly fried wings is *chef kiss*. Never have I tried Mussels on a skewer before- but these were so good, with that slightly spicy sauce for dipping. But the piece de resistance is absolutely the Thai steamed fish. The steamed fish with the aromatics of the herbs is so good. Even if you don't get the set menu this is a must order item in my book. And the crab fried rice with it - they are not skimping on the crab. But here's the thing - this is a LOT of food for 2 people in my opinion. But hey - that just meant I had to make sure to freeze leftovers for driving 4 hours back home the next day. The dishes that went back with us were duck curry, the remainder of the crab fried rice and the veg side which was wok fried morning glory. And they reheated perfectly well for dinner the next night. Did I silently covet the crab curry other tables ordered around me? Maybe. But the 3 chilis next to the item did not inspire confidence in myself or my ability to handle spicy food. Maybe next time I will ask if I can just sample the curry sauce in a teaspoon or condiment cup, before committing and ordering something I cannot eat. But if I can,you bet I will absolutely order it. Cannot finish a meal at a Thai restaurant without getting mango sticky rice and of course that was a perfect end to our meal. Our server Clem was fantastic and took such good care of us. Thanks for making sure our leftovers were waiting for us at the hostess station instead of taking room at our table while we enjoyed our dessert. That might be my ONLY complaint - Guys if you know people might get a set menu - a bigger table might be advisable. It was hard to jockey for table space to keep the dishes all on the table while we were eating. But please consider opening a DC location. You would for sure have fans flocking to dine here. read more

Solid spot in NY. Coming for the HH is good too. They raised the price a smidge from when I last visited but green sauce that accompanied the oysters was good. I thought the steamed fish was so soft and I liked the chili sauce as well. The curry was very smooth in texture but my greedy self maybe thought there'd be a bit more crab within? Crab glass noodle I expected to be a bit more flavor but I do love the texture of the glass noodles! Our cocktails were good too but I've been hearing about this savory cocktail (I think that Nam Gin Martini) that tastes like pho?! Please don't take it off the menu until I come back to NY to try! read more
