    The decor, the food, the flavors, the service, the drinks....so basically everything was top notch...came to lemongrass to celebrate alot of accomplishments and left lemongrass fully satisfied and in good spirits. Everything was tasty, flavorful and eye-catching. The server did a great job handling a large group and the chefs did a great job sending out all meals in a timely manner. Everything was hot..sweet..spicy and ohh so good. Those who were vegan enjoyed..only ate fish enjoyed....It was a smorgasbord of different dishes and there was no complaints. The space is intimate but the decor makes up for it..its a very instagrammable space great for date night,girls nite or just out hanging with family

    Cha-ba | passion fruit margarita
    Michelle T.

    Haven't been here in years! But last Sunday I decided to stop in around 8pm to grab a bite. It was so packed when we arrived, I didn't think we were going to get a table but luckily we were able to snag a table right away since it was just 2 of us. The service was good, nothing too spectacular or overly friendly but it was quick and efficient. We had a young lady that was training, so she was being guided by someone else but she did a good job. Drinks: w head the cha-ba and the passion fruit margarita. The cha-ba was a big miss but the passion fruit margarita was great! Food: we had the shrimp roll to start. It came out piping hot and was flavorful and the sweet chili sauce complimented it well. For entrees we had the pad Thai noodle with chicken and the pineapple fried rice with chicken and shrimp. Both dishes came out hot and fresh. The pineapple fried rice was a big serving and it was very good! The pad Thai serving was more on the smaller side. I wish I would've asked if they could make it spicy because I requested chili oil after to add to it but they didn't have. Spice aside, the flavors were great!

    They sure can pack a lot of people into a small space! So don't go here if you don't like crowds! Service was super quick though. I appreciate how quickly everything was brought out. Drinks were fine, a little under sweetened. Food was good, small portions than typical for Thai, but you could tell these dishes were made with higher quality ingredients (the fried rice didn't taste so oily)! Great spot for date night!

    Scrumptious food with a gorgeous floral interior and top-notch service! I tried the lunch special and was pleasantly surprised with fresh spring rolls and salad as a starter. And my main dish, chicken pad thai, was so delicious! Would love to visit again to keep savoring the food and ambiance!

    I was taken here on a surprise first date. Apparently, this establishment is well known on TikTok (I don't use TikTok). The ambiance is beautiful. Very quaint place with great food. This was also my first time trying Thai food and it didn't disappoint. The staff is kind and the food came out rather quickly even though they were busy. We had missed our reservation time but they were able to accommodate us anyway. I got the basil fried rice (I heard this is a staple) with shrimp and a Thai tea. I liked everything. The food was so flavorful. If you're unsure , Go!

    Really good. The service was pretty good and the food was delicious. Definitely would come back for some authentic Thai food. Had a lot of fun and it was nice just sitting outside. The decor was great and the staff was really nice.

    Pad See Ew very flavorful. Definitely worth getting. Would prefer more noddles but over all very good!

    Very flavorful. Would like more noddles thats my preference but overall very good!! And for some reason gave my family a free Fried Ice Cream which was very nice. We had a great server . She was very attentive!

    We've been to Lemongrass Brooklyn a few times now, and every time we go, the atmosphere is what sticks with me the most. The inside is honestly beautiful. They have these decorations hanging from the ceiling, and they switch things up for the holidays, so it always feels warm and fun. There's usually good music playing too, which adds to the whole vibe. It's almost always busy, no matter when you show up. We've even gone at 9 p.m. thinking it would be quiet, and it was still packed. The staff is always really friendly and efficient, especially considering how much they have going on. Because it's such a lively spot, little things do slip through the cracks sometimes. There was one time when our order never made it to the kitchen and we had to reorder after about twenty minutes, and another time when my shrimp fried rice came out as pork instead. None of it was a huge deal, and they were genuinely apologetic both times, but it's something to keep in mind if you're going in with a tight schedule. As for the food, I really enjoy it. It's not the most traditional Thai food I've ever had, and it's definitely not very spicy, but the flavors are good and the portions are generous. I'm always impressed by the freshness and quality of the meat and vegetables. The shrimp, the grilled pork, the veggies, everything always tastes fresh and well cooked, and they give you plenty of protein and vegetables so your dish never feels like it's mostly rice or noodles. Some of my go to dishes are the pineapple fried rice, the panang curry, the basil stir fry, and the shrimp woonseen. The shrimp in that one are huge and really flavorful. Honestly, you can't go wrong with much on the menu. Overall, it's a great spot with good food, great vibes, and really kind people. If you're not in a rush, I definitely recommend checking it out, and it's worth making a reservation since it fills up fast.

    fun spot with some very delicious food. I recommend the fried red snapper and duck. the drinks / mocktails were merely okay - very sweet. but the entrees were pretty exceptional. -- pricey but reasonable in light of the portion sizes. I recommend making a reservation as this place gets full very quickly and has a decent waitlist, even on weeknights. the interior is quite maximalist in decoration with fake flowers and leaves hanging off of the ceilings, and it's a very relaxed and casual vibe. the service was fast and friendly. I would come back again!

    Very vibrant Thai restaurant in Brooklyn. I thought that the food and ambience were both very good. We started with the Lychee Shrimp. They tasted exactly how one would expect the combination of shrimp with lychees to taste. Very sweet, but a flavorful mix nonetheless. We had the Mango Shrimp for our entree with a side of Basil rice and I thought they were both very good. The restaurant has a trendy atmosphere with many colorful flowers hanging from the ceiling. In spite of the restaurant being very busy, the service was still very good.

    Duck Pad Thai
    Jeila F.

    I loved Lemongrass! Their duck pad thai was flavorful and the duck was cooked perfectly. The waitress made sure to check up on our table often. I would want to go again during the day. But the ambiance at night is good. A late night dinner, but just expect it to be busy. We didn't have to wait for a table, but it is a loud restaurant.

    Really good food that comes out really hot. Trained well staff. The prices are a bit high for drinks . $25 for a watermelon marg . That's more than the fancy drink spots in the neighborhood .

He was friendly and very helpful. The dishes were all so flavorful. The appetizer we got was hor mok. It was the perfect pairing and balance of flavors. The larb was very spicy!

As soon as we arrived, we were escorted to a table. I've noticed that this restaurant seemed very authentic. They had dishes that I've never seen at other Thai spots. Their chefs are also from Central & Northeastern part of Thailand. So, they are cooking from their respective regions. The presentation of their dishes are all aesthetically pleasing. We decided to share a small plate of HOR MOK This tasted almost like a crab puree into a spoon sized portion. There's 7 pieces in one order. It was recommended to eat it all in one bite. It was great. Texture was very smooth in your mouth. Surprisingly, it had a spicy kick (but nothing too intense). I personally decided to try KHAO PAD MUN NEUR. This is a pricey dish, but very filling! It was said to have 2 pepper spice level to it, but I personally didn't find it very spicy. The rib eye was cooked just the way I like it - medium well (still with some redness in the inner portion). The meat had a perfectly charred/grilled exterior, but very soft to chew. This meat was probably the best part of the dish. Only slight complaint is that the rice was very saucy (almost a bit too much for my preference). But overall, I did enjoy it and was able to finish it, but left super full! Overall, I think it was worth a try. Their service is great. The servers are super great of making sure that your water is always topped up. They explained the recommended way to eat certain dishes. They were able to answer any questions that we had.

    Lunch in Brooklyn during in-between meetings of my professional duties of a Wednesday afternoon…read moresummons Thai cuisine. Pad Kee Mao (aka Drunken Noodles), chicken $15.00 Stir-fried flat rice noodle, bamboo shoots, garlic, basil, fresh chili, onion, carrot, string bean, bell pepper, long hot chili The flat rice noodle quantity was sufficient, but minimal and there were too much onion, insufficient string bean, two paucity pieces of carrot. I dislike bamboo shoot which is not a standard ingredient for this particular entrée. I think the bamboo shoot tainted this entrée. I am a traditionalist conservative which bean sprouts is a good substitute variation for bamboo shoot vegetable including string bean. This entrée is my favorite default and as a caveat, if any Thai restaurant or cafe do not offer on their menu I refuse entry to patronize. This entrée enticed my interest and embedded the lunch meal menu for the reasonable price. I personally despise and do not consume spicy hot foods, but occasionally consume mild or very mild in the smallest measurement of the Scoville scale which I specifically requested, but received medium hot spicy. The waitress forewarned me the intense heat level on the Scoville scale as Thai cultural spicy with two or more bird's eye chilies for a high level of spiciness. The spiciness of chili peppers were, in my opinion, medium spicy. Despite the intense medium heat spiciness, the stir-fried noodles lacked flavor with, tender chicken, minimal vegetables, and Thai basil in a bland taste. I wish I chosen shrimp as the protein. Pad Kee Mao sustained my hunger pangs and ate my fill. When eating Thai intense heat spicy foods, I visualize to think of the TV segment "Niall Horan & James Corden Take On Hot Wings" on "The Late Late Show with James Corden" in March, 2020. High heat spicy foods! Thai ice tea, large $3.00 This was a delight and neutralized the heat spiciness because it contains milk. It was served chilled in a large highball glass. Samyan is a Thai cafe located in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, NYC and accessible via MTA NYC Transit C local train at Clinton-Washington subway station. This cafe is a independently owned and operated, thankfully. The waitress did check-in with me during my meal for attentive customer service. The atmospheric conditions were a simple small dine-in cafe. There were many paintings, portraits hanging on their walls of white subway tiles. Gold metallic metal chopsticks and fork are provided. If utensils are gold then the interior cafe should contain these "gaudy" feature extensive gold elements, including gilded moldings and furniture. Peony rose are very simply and made pretty table centerpiece decorations. Takeout menu and business cards are available for grabs. I did received my sales receipt. At the bottom of the sales receipt there is a suggested gratuity in intervals of 18%, 20% and 22% where customers do not have to perform math calculation. I paid $23.00 in cash as the waitress' informative knowledge of the ingredients and preparation of the heat level on the Scoville scale.

My partner was running late, and even though the place is clearly very popular right now, they still accommodated us with a table. The staff explained every unfamiliar dish we asked about, always with a smile. I usually avoid the standard NYC Thai restaurant lineup of pad thai + generic curry situations and look for places that feel more regional and authentic. The menu here had a bunch of dishes I didn't recognize, which immediately made me excited. They even have a spice guide though the icons don't necessarily mean increasing spice levels. As I understood it, different symbols represent different types of heat. Three chili emojis and three meteor emojis may be equally spicy, but they hit differently. They recommended not to order the pad krapow nuer, and honestly, fair enough. Instead, we got the chicken khao soi, which was far better than versions I've had elsewhere - deeply flavorful, spicy, rich with umami. My partner was crying. I, meanwhile, was at "this is perfect and I'm having a great time." One Huge chunk of chicken cooked exactly right. Mix everything thoroughly before eating. Then came the kua kling which arrived with another warning. That dish became my personal challenge to impress the server, and apparently I succeeded because now they've promised that next time they won't discourage me from ordering the nuer. They kept refilling cabbage and cucumber for us to cool down from the heat. The kua kling itself was incredible. That dry curry heat was everything. It builds slowly, then suddenly punches you in the face - but alongside all that spice is an insane amount of flavor. They also recommended to order a non-spicy side dish to have a balanced meal and spice level, but we skipped it because it would've been too much food. Honestly, this is the kind of place where going with at least four people is ideal so you can try more dishes and balance the spice levels. And if you're unsure what to order, trust the servers - their recommendations were spot on. Also: really great ciders and beers. We were really happy with both choices. Overall, even though it's far from the city for me, I'd absolutely go back.

Spicy food, in case you didn't know, connotes authenticity. Call it suffering for beauty, in a culinary wrapper. Ugly Baby took this S&M theater to its logical conclusion in all regards: tuck it in an inaccessible corner of South Brooklyn; use tiny chairs and brusquely inform diners they have an hour start to finish at their table. The more inconvenient it was, the better. I held my applause after my single visit to Ugly Baby, which closed amidst wails and lamentation last year from people who liked rough treatment. But something drew me back to this reincarnation, started by the same people. Maybe, I thought, they'd found a way to bring us that magnetic authenticity, and hold the ball gags and chain flails? The answer is no. I should have known from the name alone: another mysterious two-word phrase (both of whose words again end in -y) that sounds like it could be an overly literal translation of some ineffable Thai concept. I should have known when it opened in the same godforsaken corner of ... what is that? Gowanus? I should have known from the protracted negotiations for a suitable table that followed when my husband, mom and I arrived punctually for our 5:30 reservation and were primly informed we'd be squeezing onto a two top, then were refused an obviously empty three-top ("it's reserved"....oh you mean by a party of three with a reservation like us?), and then grudgingly seated at a four-top, half of which was literally in the kitchen. I should have known after being apprised that "you have one hour at the table." I should have known when there were no appetizers or desserts, and only two vegetarian entrees. This is the same thing as before. We're so back, baby. The mushroom curry, with its single fire emoj, was nowhere near the spiciest thing on the menu, but gosh was it still spicy. How do they make food with such complex flavors that's still hot enough to have emanated from the bowels of hell? It has to be one of the best curries I've had. It's a talent, special even, but it could easily coexist without Hungry Thirsty's other downsides. But I think all those inconveniences and discomforts are the point. They serve to reinforce the specialness of the special parts, counterintuitively increasing your mental investment in internally extolling Hungry Thirsty's virtues. They are to each element what spice is to food: it hurts, and you're proud that it hurts. It all adds up to the second coming of Ugly Baby, and why wouldn't it? Enough people liked being slapped around; maybe they felt like they deserved it. You know if that's you or not.

My first experience was…read morethrough a Yelp Elite event where we were generously welcomed to a wide variety of items on the menu. I enjoyed the food and the event so much that I've returned and told others to go as well. What I like the most is that Chiangmai's expansive menu showcases aspects of Thai cuisine that you're probably not getting at your neighborhood spot. Many items are Northern Thai style dishes. I'd never had Khao Soi before coming here and I was blown away. The chiangmai sausage is also delicious. The roasted duck curry boasts deep flavor while also maintaining the crispiest duck skin. For appetizers, we started with the crispy salmon belly bites and the moo ping. Frying salmon is risky, but the fattiness of the belly keeps it from drying out. The moo ping is nicely grilled and served with a sweet sauce. You just can't go wrong ordering meat on a stick. As an entree, I tried the Gaeng Awm Nur, a soup-like beef dish served with a side of sticky rice. Our server had been really nice and welcoming, so I felt ok asking how I should eat my meal. She advised that I make a ball of some sticky rice with my hand, mash it a bit, and then dip it into the soup. Thai food achievement unlocked! Now I know what to do next time I'm served sticky rice. There's so much on the menu it can be hard to choose. This is encouragement to go with someone else who enjoys food so you can choose things to share! You won't be disappointed and in fact may find that your regular Thai spots could step up their game in comparison.

    If I were able to give this place 10 stars, I would. As soon as I saw Michelin Star on the door, I…read moredisregarded the Korean spot on the corner and dashed in. I was floored by the service, presentation, and absolutely authentic flavor of the food. Every dish was a work of art. As if the chef painstakingly labored to have the dish coming to the table be a mirror of the picture on the digital menu. It was like the picture animated itself into real life with robust and rich flavoring. I bless this place with overwhelming abundance and positive vibes. The atmosphere was nice and upscale but not pretentious. Everyone there as customers appeared as if they were about the foodie life but in a grown up way. Our server was so nice and sometimes invasively helpful but I loved it. I will be back.

    We had a solid meal here and the portions are fair for the price point, and the atmosphere in…read moreBrooklyn is lovely. Kee Mao Short Rib (4.75/5): Our absolute favorite. The meat was incredibly tender and literally fell off the bone. It could have used a punch more of seasoning, but the texture was perfect. Thai Ice Tea (4.75/5): Perfectly balanced, creamy and delicious without being overly sweet Beef Shank Massaman (4/5): Solid choice; the beef was well-cooked and the curry was flavorful. Pad See Ew Chicken (4/5): Good, though it leaned a bit sweeter than the traditional savory profile. Gai Tod Wings & Pad Thai (3.75/5): The wings were okay but felt slightly overcooked. The Pad Thai was also on the sweeter side, though my friend really enjoyed it. Pla Neung Manow (3.75/5): Usually my favorite, but this version was a bit overcooked and the broth was blander than expected Thai Dumplings (2.75/5): Be warned if you aren't a fan of cilantro! The flavor was overpowering and unexpected
