Cute interior No wait on a Friday when dropping in around 7pm Quiet street location, very close to south street seaport's main entertainment strip Crab Rangoon - ok Mango sticky rice - ok; just wish the mango slices were thicker like Ayada's Thai shaking beef (seasonal special) - burnt and dry Chicken pad Thai - too sweet and the chicken tastes rubbery (perhaps overboiled) The service here was great, friendly, and attentive Personally, would not return but
What a cute little restaurant in the Financial Distract. The restaurant is bright and fun. The staff was attentive but rather loud. Probably do to customer base. Restaurant was basically empty. Good was delicious!
Solid pad Thai lunch. The chicken was silky smooth, the egg was airy, the noodles were al dente. The peanuts were grinded to provide just enough texture. The flavor was decent too. What a pleasant surprise.
Must try: Seafood Pineapple Curry and Mango Mojito! Why: My family, a party of 6, was craving Thai so checked out this place and we enjoyed all the dishes. We also felt the portion sizes were large and perfect for sharing. We started with the Hey Thai Platter and Chive Pancakes as apps. We also ordered Tom Yum Soup and there was a good amount of large Shrimp. Drunken Noodles with Chicken and Crab Fried Rice were really good. Our fav was Seafood Pineapple Curry we ate over white rice or crab fried rice, and that was delicious! Lobster tail, squid, mussels, scallops, and shrimp in the pineapple and a bowl of coconut red curry with additional seafood. It was also Happy Hour so we had some refreshing beer and Mango Mojito. Notes: Cute place with nice floral decor and swing in front. Made for fun family photos. Booths and tables indoors as well as tables outdoors for small and large parties. Host, waitress, and servers were all welcoming, friendly, and helpful. They provided excellent service all evening. After being seated in a booth they were able to move us outside since it was beautiful breezy evening. It was less noisy outside too and we were the only ones for a while (around 7pm) until it got busier around 8pm. Overall, a great family dinner with delicious food and drinks!
Cute interior space with cherry blossoms and other colorful decor. Service is good, waters are always refilled and they take your order quickly. Onto the food, I loved my half chicken with papaya salad and sticky rice. This was so so good. The papayas salad had some sort of fish sauce dressing which cut through the richness of the roast chicken. The sweet chili sauce was also a great addition. Sticky rice was wonderfully chewy with a crisp exterior. Unfortunately, my friend did not like her pad see ew at all and barely touched it all dinner. I felt terrible but she didn't want any of mine. She said it's very hit or miss here and to be honest, it really just looks ok to me as well visually. The noodles don't seem very bouncy or fresh and the sauce wasn't great. Maybe was an off day. Prices are very reasonable for FiDi.
Conveniently located near South Street Seaport and Circle Line Cruises. Not super authentic Thai ( don't expect Thai level spice), but the food and portions are good and the staff was helpful. Lovely decor and a lot of seats, but can be a long wait for walk-ins. The lemongrass soup didn't have much flavor so I would skip that one.
Came here while in town celebrating the Knicks win. The spot was not far from the Pier 11 area. We walked here from our hotel in the Wall street area. Most restaurants were over crowded with long waits but we lucked up when we popped in! There was no wait. We ordered drinks and food. The chicken satay was good. It was paired with a peanut sauce and a pickled sauce. Both were good with the chicken. I got the shrimp pad thai which was also good. Not that many shrimp but i do know it is expensive these days. I would go back while in town
We went to Hey Thai for our lunch with friends. It has cozy interiors. We ordered Appetizers platter and it was delicious. For main course; we ordered pineapple fried rice and drunken noodles. They were fab too. For dessert: We got mango sticky rice. The mango wasn't ripe and was definitely not a Thai mango. However the rice pudding tasted good despite the odd coloring. The staff was humble too. Will definitely visit again.
Lunch from Hey Thai was okay. I ordered the drunken noodles as part of an office group order for delivery, and found the spice level to be pretty good. There was a nice heat in each bite, evenly spread through the dish. The noodles were okay, the consistency was decent, if not a bit soft for some bites. Chicken in the dish was fine. But the dish overall was a bit bland and a little heavy on the oil for some bites. There wasn't a lot of taste to the noodles beyond the spice alone, it left a bit to be desired.
Feels like a solid 3.5. Ordered a takeout and they taste not bad even after a five mins walk. Pad Thai with shrimp $18 was alright. Noodles is Al dente not mushy. It's also right amount of sourness. Shrimp is big, deshelled and bouncy. Crab rangoon was not good. Four piece for $9. But I couldn't taste any crab, not even fake crab meat. It's just sweet cream cheese inside. Don't recommend. Curry roti appetizer $10 was pretty good. Roti probably is deep fried so it's super greasy so it only taste good for the first two pieces. The curry however is the highlight of this meal. Taste so good and flavorful.
Hey Thai was great. So glad my hubs and I stumbled in. We were really hungry and had walked past this restaurant the entire time we were staying at our Airbnb in NY. It sat right on the corner of the block. We finally wandered in after my daughter mentioned that she loved it and that we should try it. We walked in and it was so cute, and the greeting was the best. They were very warm and friendly. The service was amazing. As for ambiance -- SO CUTE! Very well manicured, clean, and curated. Now for the main question: how was the food? Wonderful! The pad see ew was excellent, the shrimp curry was on point, and the portions were shareable. We loved it and will be back! It's a great, quiet, and chill vibe -- perfect for a reflective or deep conversation, or a "I just want to be with you" date. Check them out!
We went to Hey Thai for dinner on a Saturday night. It's a beautiful restaurant and they have delicious Thai and Pan-Asian Fusion food. The drinks were great! The staff members were friendly and accommodating. We had such a great dining experience.
Overall: C // 3 stars Running a generous promotion on Uber Eats with significant value takeout food. However, it seems like the flavor profile is also on discount as there are some critical ingredients lacking from what otherwise could've been a solid arrangement of food. (Chive Pancake: C) - The sauce has a delicious savory, acidic, and sweet profile. I like the chive component, but it needs more chive to make it taste like eating a big blob of mochi. (Pad Thai: C) - A large plate of pad thai, but when I first tasted it, I was incredibly disappointed to find that it had no flavor. When I retossed it on a wok, it seems like the flavor profile was correct, but it just seemed like someone forgot to add any amount of salt. (Pad See Ew: B) - Similar to the Pad Thai, this dish needs to be better seasoned. That said, there was a light soy note that could be tasted, and would be even better if it was intensified. The beef was tender. (Tom Kha: F) - The flavor profile of this soup was incredibly problematic as it tasted like coconut water and lacked most of the spices built to make the soup have its distinctively captivating flavor. It's lacking kaffir lime leaves, galangal, and perhaps even fish sauce. Food: -1 Presentation: E Price: +1 Insta/Yelp/Beli/TikTok: @amei_eats
Was on our way home and stumbled onto this place. What a great spot. And one that was open while all the others spots closed early. Service was quick and attentive and kind. We got a couple apps and entrees. Everything was delicious and I can't wait to come back. Love that there's a reliable Thai spot in this neighborhood. read more

I really enjoyed my dinner at this Thai spot in FiDi. The interior design from the entering the restaurant to being seated really makes you feel like you left the city temporarily. Looking through their cocktail menu, I noticed everything was made from sake. Not hating on it, just an observation I noticed. We got the Chiang Mai Lady ($16), which was made from Japanese plum wine, sake, lemon juice, cranberry juice, ginger-infused syrup, and fragrant rose water. Sounded like an interesting combination of ingredients and tasted pretty decent. I personally ordered the Thai Coffee Martini ($15), which was on their specials menu. This is made from Thai coffee, sake, and Baileys coffee cream. Good drink to get to stay awake with a Thai twist. For appetizers, we ordered the Thai Dumpling Curry in the Ocean ($14), also from their specials menu. This was more of a vegetarian dish made mainly with chives and mushrooms soaked in Massaman curry. Great for the vegetarians out there. We also got the Grilled Shrimp Mango Salad ($16), which I was surprised how well it tasted. It may have been my favorite dish out of everything we ordered. For entrees, we ordered the Drunken Noodle w Duck ($27). Duck was prepared well. I ended up having this as leftovers for lunch the following day and the duck still tasted great along with the noodles. We also got the Seafood Pineapple Curry ($38), which was massive as they served the dish in a gutted pineapple and anything that didn't fit in the pineapple in its own bowl. Comes with white rice. This definitely can feed two people alone. Did we have room for dessert? No, but we always make room. We settled on their Ube Ice Cream Cup ($12), which was a lot larger than I thought it would be. It's meant to be shared. I loved the touch of diced fruits on the side, which goes well with the ube ice cream. read more

Ran in for a quick lunch. Service was quick and efficient. I had a shrimp pad Thai. I was impressed with the pad Thai. I hate a dry noodle but this one was saucy! The shrimp were large. Love a good NYC takeout and this hit the mark. read more
Hidden gem alert in Downtown NYC -- Hey Thai on John Street (just a 10-min walk from Fulton Center) totally won my heart! Cozy ambience, friendly service, and the warmest welcome -- it's one of those rare spots that instantly makes you feel at home. Their Thai Iced Tea? Pure love in a glass Don't miss their special dumplings -- soft, flavorful, and absolutely mouthwatering . The Basil wok entrée was incredible, and the Massamun Curry with veggies & tofu hit all the right notes -- rich, creamy, and comforting. Generous portions (rare for NYC!) + great prices = total win If you're craving authentic Thai flavors with cozy vibes, Hey Thai deserves a spot on your list! Would you try this spot next time you're around Downtown? read more
I got lunch to-go here and thought that it was just okay. I ordered their duck pad see ew and thought that it lacked a bit in flavor. It was also an additional $13 for duck and thought that the amount of duck I got (5 thin pieces) wasn't really worth it. Their salad rolls were also really thick, hard, and unevenly cut while their mango stick rice came with really thin and dry slices of mango. Overall, I wouldn't really recommend. read more
I was in local area and decided to stop by. I was immediately greeted and seated at a table. I was given a menu. The place is very Instagrammable with lots of greenery and they have a cocktail list. They do have an happy hour, which looks great and happens every day until 7pm. I got the pad see u noodle dish. The noodles were mushy. It wasn't the right color. I think they need to add more soy sauce to the dish. I got it with chicken, which was very tasty but overall I think the restaurant has great aesthetic but lacks food quality so I would skip it. read more

This is actually my second time at this spot (first time we ate here but this time was takeout). Just wanna start off and say the decor of this place was very nice and calming. Pretty standard & traditional Thai menu with a nice drink section as well. This time around we ended up getting the chicken pad Thai & chicken pad see ew. The pad see ew was great, had a nice sweet but savory soy flavor with the flat noodles being the perfect texture. The pad Thai was mediocre as we've had better from other Thai spots. However I do feel like the food did taste better the first time around and probably because we had eaten there instead the first time around. Overall a good Thai spot in the seaport area that I'd go back to again :) read more

We were downtown for a couple of dog adoption events and when it came time to eat, we were not quite sure where to land. A quick search brought up Thai food in the area and Hey Thai came up, so we decided to give it a shot. The lemonade was a pleasant surprise, tasting legitimately homemade rather than the standard fountain variety you find most places. The calamari came in generous pieces, heavily breaded but with a satisfying crunch, and the sweet chili dipping sauce delivered on flavor. The pork chop was equally solid, a respectable portion served alongside white rice that held its own as a side. The ambience leans dark with an abundance of artificial plants scattered throughout, giving the space a tropical feel that is either charming or a bit much depending on your taste. The staff was a mixed experience, some genuinely warm and attentive, others appearing less enthusiastic about being there. That is not unusual in food service and it did not take much away from the overall visit. One thing worth mentioning for the sake of honesty. The restroom needed attention during our visit. Staff was notified and they did respond, though the cleanup was not as thorough as it could have been. Small detail, but worth noting. Overall Hey Thai was a solid find for a casual meal downtown. The food is the reason to come here and it delivers. The lemonade alone make it worth the stop, for me that was the champion. read more

It's considered a solid neighborhood spot especially for their lunch specials... offers a casual, cozy dining experience with a vibrant atmosphere that's great for dates as well. I went there with a bunch of friends after reading reviews that were generally positive, highlighting friendly service and good food ...and I couldn't agree more. We ordered a lot.. from popular dishes like Drunken Noodles and various creamy curries and apps. However, authenticity can be hit-or-miss for some. The large portions of dishes is always nice esp for sharing. Drinks were good too. Overall had a great time! read more

1. Ambiance- beautiful! Awesome for date night or Instagram boasting 2. Service - amazing! Fast and attentive. Who the #€££! is busy on Sunday evening but this place? Food, drinks and dessert came MINUTES after ordering. Also, call me old school ( they do) I'm a sucker for beauty and the male wait staff tried to hide the hateration for Mr. Steal Your Auntie as the mild flirting worked. 3. Food- Delicious BUT I wasn't ready. The portions are HUGE. Your uncle, Mr. Steal Your Auntie managed 2 portions before the to go boxes were requested. But Hey Thai got me: I stayed nursing 2 delicious drinks so long that I slid into dessert and then this review! Pray your uncle slides into this server's phone! read more

Restaurant was nicely decorated and my husband's lemongrass pork chop was really good but my pad thai was only ok. Not very tasty and noodles were mushy and shrimp was was not very firm. Mango sticky rice is not the kind I usually get elsewhere. Unripe and hard mango thinly sliced placed around the sticky rice. Portions were huge and friendly service. read more
