Amazing experience and food!…read more Thai iced coffee: So delicious and strong! It has a certain grittiness to it which I loved! Drunken noodles: so flavorful! The noodles were thick and silky, and the chicken was cooked to perfection. We added their house chili sauces to it and it became even better! Thai bread with chicken curry: the bread was one of the flakiest roti canai/thousand layer breads I have ever had! The chicken curry had a coconut based and a rich peanut taste - two flavors which my husband and I love! It was a chance find, and I am so glad we did because we loved our meal here!

Taylor's Tayke: Cafe Chili offers a fun introduction to Thai…read moreflavors through both its afternoon tea experience and its full dinner menu. What stood out most was the variety. From savory bites and traditional Thai dishes to tea service and desserts, there was plenty to explore throughout the visit. The afternoon tea service in particular offered a unique way to experience the menu beyond a traditional meal. My Taysty Tayke: Get Down & Dirty, Expeditiously: Fish in the Boat One of the most memorable dishes from the visit. Fresh salmon paired with bright flavors and a subtle kick of spice. It almost gave salmon salad vibes while still feeling distinctly Thai. Egg Tart Soft, creamy, and incredibly smooth. The texture was outstanding and easily one of the strongest items from the afternoon tea selection. Crying Tiger Skewer Tender, juicy, flavorful, and everything you'd want from grilled beef. Simple execution done extremely well. Hot Chai Tea Excellent on its own, but the addition of cinnamon elevated it even further by adding warmth and complexity to every sip. Shrimp Bite Loved the texture here. Fresh shrimp with a bright lime flavor and none of the chewiness that can sometimes hold shrimp dishes back. Duck Salad Fresh, juicy, and tender with great balance throughout. Macaron with Grape The grape added a fruity sweetness that complemented the macaron nicely without overpowering it. Pork Pastry Flaky, savory, and satisfying. Dumpling Solid texture and flavor throughout. Curry Puff Enjoyable curry flavor but could have used a little more punch. Thai Wings Well executed with good flavor throughout. Rice Ball Sweet, sticky, and compact. A nice contrast to some of the savory items. Chicken & Shrimp Fried Dumplings Enjoyable but didn't stand out as much as some of the stronger offerings. The Experience: The afternoon tea service was a pleasant surprise and offered a creative way to sample multiple flavors in one sitting. Pairing that with the dinner menu gave a well-rounded look at what Cafe Chili has to offer. Best For: Afternoon tea, casual lunches, catching up with friends, introducing someone to Thai cuisine, or exploring a variety of flavors in one visit. In Conclusion: Cafe Chili shines when it leans into dishes that balance freshness, texture, and bold flavor. The Fish in the Boat, Egg Tart, Crying Tiger Skewer, and Duck Salad were the standouts for me, while the afternoon tea experience adds a unique element you don't often find at Thai restaurants. If you're looking for variety and a mix of savory and sweet offerings, Cafe Chili is worth a visit. Stamped by Elajas

(3 out of 5) Pretty good dumplings, but not…read moredestination-worthy. I came here after a disappointing ramen experience nearby, looking to redeem the day with something reliably comforting , dumplings. The vibe was simple and clean, and I was hopeful the food would match. I ordered the chicken and shrimp dumplings (10 pieces), which came steamed, though I wish I had known that was the default. No option was given for pan-fried, and it wasn't mentioned at the counter. A small thing, but still. The dumplings themselves were good, not bad by any means, but not especially memorable either. The filling was a bit one-note, and while the texture was fine, I didn't feel like I got anything I couldn't replicate at home with a decent frozen brand and a steamer. They came with a little chili oil and soy sauce on the side, plus some shredded cabbage and a pickle slice (an odd garnish, but hey). At nearly $19 for 10 dumplings, I did feel it was a bit overpriced for what I got. Not a ripoff, but definitely not a great value either. Would I come back? Maybe if I was already in the area and craving something light. But I wouldn't go out of my way.

It was freezing outside, and because of our party size we wanted to be as far from the door as possible (it closes really slowly), but only the front could hold us. I tried to have menu items I didn't have before, so I got their pumpkin soup and jap chae. Pumpkin soup was honestly enough on its own, and so refreshing! It was flavorful and warmed me up inside. The jap chae was soooo delicious. I had to cheat and use a fork though... the noodles clumped together and were just heavy overall haha. But that was tasty too! I was very close to trying their pineapple ginger sake, but opted for next time. I didn't order it myself, but my niece got these nuggets that came with this... fantastic sauce. There's another NYC restaurant that makes nearly identical looking nuggets... but both the nuggets and the sauce here were... WAY better. I was honestly blown away and could eat a tray of those. I'd recommend this spot to anyone who's looking for yummy veggie options. But I wouldn't suggest a party larger than 6 to dine in.

Juju is an interesting shop. It's a market with Asian goodies from snacks to toys. It's got three…read moreclaw machines. And it's also a boba shop with onigiri and sushi burritos. First thought is that it's quite pricey here, especially their onigiris. There's many other Japanese convenient shops nearby that also sell this for half the price (though I can't say for the quality). Anyways, I decided to try their Tuna Poke Sushi Burrito ($17). There was one other customer waiting as well, but it took a good 10 minutes for my order. The burrito is pretty packed with fillings, but can get a bit messy to eat. There are good chunks of tuna, which was well marinated. I did enjoy this sushi burrito, but wish it was slightly more affordable as I'm not sure how likely I'd want to spend that for a quick meal. The sushi burrito is such a niche, that it's a specific craving that would bring me back here.

The congee itself was quite pleasant in texture. The chicken ginger soup was spicy and sweet, a nice complement.

Overall a great spot for congee and other cafe bites.

The bread was very good - crispy and soft and chewy. I didn't like how they layered the filling…read morethough because you have to bite on each side to have a balanced taste of meat and veggies because the filling was layered vertically instead of horizontally. I got the spicy, but it wasn't spicy because there were barely any jalapenos in it, but the staff gave me extra jalapenos to add to the sandwich. I wish the sandwich also had much more cilantro. I think there was only one stem of cilantro. The pickled carrots were very good, but it would have been nice to have more radish in there. Lots of potential for the banh mi at this spot. I would go again, but I would have to tell them how I want my sandwich.
