Let's start by saying... 10/10 would absolutely recommend Kam Rai Thai!! The restaurant is small…read morebut spacious enough. The vibe was on point, especially for date night. The food was absolutely delicious and the staff was so friendly and charming. I went with a small group and we were able to be seated rather quickly. We ordered so much and ate every bite of it. We had shrimp dumplings, spring rolls, thai ice tea, edamame, mango salad, Garlic style shrimp, Garlic style chicken, Garlic style steak and coconut icecream. Everything was amazing! Can't wait to go back!

I came here to celebrate my mom's birthday, so maybe that's why I'm extra disappointed because I…read morereally wanted this meal to be great. To start, the food wasn't bad. There were some things we enjoyed, but overall we left feeling that the quality and portions didn't justify the prices. We ordered the chicken curry puffs first. They were much sweeter than I'm used to, and instead of the traditional cucumber relish, they were served with plum sauce. It wasn't terrible, just not what I expected. The roti with Massaman curry had good flavor, but the curry was so thin that it had the consistency of soup rather than a rich curry. It also came without any potatoes, carrots, or onions. I wasn't expecting meat, but I did expect a more traditional Massaman curry. The grilled beef (nuea yang) was cooked well and very tender, but the beef itself was lacking seasoning. Thankfully, the dipping sauces added some flavor. The beef short rib khao soi was another dish that felt underwhelming. The short rib was excellent--fall-off-the-bone tender--but the curry broth itself tasted too light. I personally think it needed more curry paste and more depth of flavor, especially for a dish that's around $40. The biggest disappointment was the kua kling chicken and the Hat Yai fried chicken. Both portions were surprisingly small considering the price. That's where I really felt the value wasn't there. Unfortunately, the service didn't help either. It wasn't rude, but it felt inattentive and lacked the warmth and hospitality I usually associate with Thai restaurants. I always want to support fellow Thai-owned businesses, so writing this review honestly makes me sad. I'm not trying to discourage anyone from trying the restaurant--this is simply my family's experience. Everyone has different tastes, and yours may be completely different from ours. For us, though, the combination of light flavors, small portions, and lackluster service left us disappointed, especially for a birthday dinner.

The ramen was good, but it was also at least 5-7 dollars more expensive than comparable ramen. The egg also was not worth the 3 dollar extra, as it was a cold poached egg and not standard soy egg.

We got everything at medium spice level which was just the right amount of flavor and spice and wasn't too strong. I have a lot of Thai food and I have to say this is some of the best I've had. We also got the drunken noodles and veggie dumplings which I don't have photos of; noodles were good but dumplings were only okay and probably not worth it. Thai curry fried rice was very good. I also personally really enjoyed the Thai iced coffee!! Highly recommend stopping by!

A forgettable lunch I had here. It's not terribly bad but I can name a couple other Chinese…read morerestaurants I've had a better experience in. The restaurant is a few blocks from the main street of Steinway so it'll take a bit of searching. Going inside, the area is rather abstract. Pink flower wallpaper on one end and dry wall on the other, it's kinda off-putting but I didn't come here for the atmosphere anyway. Service was lukewarm, I got my order in but the two workers inside weren't too receptive and the menu itself is kinda barebones with most of their food being a bit more than I would like to pay for so I just settled on one order of Singapore Mei Fun. After waiting 10 minutes for my food to arrive, the Singapore noodles which are usually spicy were kinda salty but it was nothing a bit of duck sauce wouldn't fix. This one order cost $17 while not the worst Singapore Mei Fun...well technically it is, even though it's not horrible but I've had much better from other places for a stable price of $12. Yeah, a rather disappointing visit. Not the worst I've ever had but could be so much better.

We happened upon this spot after a workshop across the street, and were so pleasantly surprised by…read morethe unique flavors served up by this small local business. I got the wonton soup and pork juicy buns. The soup was different from other wonton soups with the addition of cilantro and some nice balancing flavors for the salt, and the juicy buns were your classic soup dumplings with a very nice rich sauce to dip in. The dandan noodles my friend ordered were maybe my favorite, they were the perfect level of spicy and so flavorful without being overwhelming. I'd go back just for my own plate of those. The service was quite fast, and it's a cute little shop that feels like a small town Chinese restaurant. Very reasonably priced as well. Some of my favorite Chinese food I've found outside of Lower Manhattan !

The first thing I noticed was that, despite the shop front having only five seats, there's actually a lot more seating available if you go through the door at the back--so don't be discouraged by the small space! I also learned that if you dine in, you can only select the combo options, but you'll be treated to some complimentary snacks, like the plums I received. As for the beef noodle soup, I was really impressed by the quality of the beef; it was both thick and tender. I enjoyed the side dish of rice noodles and cabbage as well. Since I'm not a fan of fried foods or spicy dishes, I would have appreciated more veggie options for the side dishes (rather than only friend food) and a non-spicy version of the beef noodle soup. However, aside from that, I had a wonderful experience here, and the staff was very friendly.
