Basil Fried Rice
Pratima M.

An outpost of a popular Thai spot tucked into Time Out Market on the ground floor -- I've been meaning to try their Manhattan restaurant for a while, so this was a great way to sample some flavors. Their Basil Fried Rice was delicious and hearty, with a pretty large serving size -- it was plenty filling to split. I appreciate they have so many vegetarian-friendly options. The market has a limited menu, but this has inspired me to hit up the actual restaurant too!

Scallion & Egg Fried Rice
Amber N.

I ordered from my table and the food was delivered to my table in good time. I ordered the scallion & egg fried rice- it was perfectly cooked & flavored.

Came here recently to get my Thai food fix and was super happy. This is an outpost in Time Out Market in DUMBO. It can be a bit tricky to find this spot as it's in the very back of the maze of different food spots. We ordered the dumplings and the drunken noodle with chicken. Both were made so well. The dumplings were juicy, chock full of delicately spices chicken, wrapped in paper and fried crispy on the outside. What a crunchy pocket full of delight!! The sweet sauce that came with the dumplings, accompanies it so well. The drunken noodle was also so delicious. Noodles come in bite size portions with thin slivered chicken and fried basil. I loved this dish. I aired for extra spicy and they did not disappoint. They even gave me chili pepper on the side which was super spicy and hit the spot for me. I highly recommend coming here and trying their food, especially if you're not in the mood to trekk all the way to the city to their restaurant. I will definitely be back to try more options on their menu, especially the chicken wings. Those looked amazing.

Red curry with beef
Aleena G.

Cute little spot to get a Thai craving. The food is very good with decent price meals. I got the red curry with beef yesterday and the broth was very tasty with the right amount of spice. There is also some seating area so you can simply watch as they make your food haha. Great service and good local spot :)

Pad Se-ew
Elianny S.

This is one of the many food spots in the Time Out market at 55 Water Street. There are a bunch of different food stalls and plenty of seating throughout the market. If the weather is nice, I would recommend eating outside so you can enjoy the beautiful views of the Manhattan Bridge. I ordered the Pad Se-ew with chicken. The food is definitely overpriced, and any protein is charged as an add-on. The food came out quickly, and it was good, not great. This area caters to tourists, so most places tend to be overpriced for no reason. Keep your expectations to a minimum, and you won't be disappointed.

Pad Thai with Egg and Chicken Wings.
Cindy Z.

With so many choices in the Time Out Market, I decided to eat at Wayla as the chicken wings looked really good. It was a busy day, so the food took 15 minutes to be ready. I ordered the Pad Thai with Egg ($15) and Chicken Wings ($14). The wings were crispy and good, but could use a bit more sauce. They were decent-sized, but overall pricey for 7 prices. As for the pad thai, it was okay. Nothing too special about this one, but I didn't want to wait in another line for different food. Nothing too special about this spot and a bit pricey as with all the spots inside of Time Out Market.

Wayla serves up their fair share of good Thai food in NYC's Brooklyn area; aka Dumbo. Was excited to seem them located in the TimeOut Market. The staff was welcoming and the line moved quickly. On this visit I decided to try the See Krong Moo Yang, "ribs" and Peek Gai Tod - "chicken wings". The food was great and I'll definitely be back when I'm in the Dumbo area.

thai tea & drunken noodles with beef
Thea A.

thai tea was delicious and refreshing, drunken noodles were good also. though, i wouldn't mind sprinkling some chicken boullion on top for more flavor. its a bit difficult to find seating inside, especially if you're a large party so i recommend finding a seat first. they have qr codes on the tables and they serve the food out to you!!!! this market/food hall is a short walk from dumbo and its a great spot to take friends and family who are visiting the area. that said, prices are a bit high, especially if you want to add meat to your dishes. my cousin and his gf got chicken pad thai (mid) and beef pad see ew (too sweet)

Fried rice
Daniel L.

This is inside the Timeout market. I got the fried rice and my friend got a Pad Thai. Kind of pricey but it was good! The staff was friendly and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time.

Lily S.

Probably the best pad Thai I've had on the east coast! One star minus is because of the steep price--$25? For pad Thai with tofu. Everything is add on: tofu, shrimp, chicken, etc. service was super friendly and nice. Not sure whether traditional flavor but definitely authentic and delicious. Would try the independent location next time.

Spicy basil fried rice
Ayesha A.

Stopped in the Timeout Market after attending an event at Sohoworks. Decided on Wayla because the Thai food display looked really good. Ordered the spicy basil fried rice with fried chicken thighs. This food was so good. It looked good but it tasted even better than I expected. I couldn't stop eating it.

Pad Se-Ew with Beef.

At this limited menu outpost in the Time Out market, I rolled the dice between drunken noodle and pad se ew, and i added beef as my protein. This time the pad se-ew came up and it was as fantastic as the reviews. I'll be honest, I wouldn't mind a chain of these around the city.

They have food and dessert vendors on the first floor and rooftop area on the 5th floor. There were dj's on both floors. We chilled on the rooftop area where there were tons of seating. They have a large dining area to sit and eat and drink. They had chairs and couches to chill and enjoy NYC water and Skyviews. The DJ (DJ Stretch) on the rooftop was amazing and played a lot of old school music from different genres. The venue was packed on Valentines day (2025). There was also an amazing violinist, (Judithviolinist on IG). This is definitely a place to check out and get your grub on or just sit and chill.

We were also able to order beers directly to us. The burgers and quesadilla and chips came out almost immediately but the Reuben took for-ev-er. To the point that all our other food was gone and we had to go check on if the order actually went through. It did...they were just sloooooow. Upside, it was tasty. This spot also has a great rooftop area with excellent views of the bridge. On nicer nights it would be a great place to hang out. If your headed over the bridge for a night, this place is worth checking out as it's also right nearby the instagram-able views!

From my initial impression, I was honestly kind of underwhelmed. When I first entered, it seemed like a ghost town with so many of the tables empty like it had just opened minutes ago. Towards the later evening after 6:30-7pm, it started to get packed towards the back. This food hall consisted of several stalls mostly Singaporean & Indian cuisines - with some hint of Filipino, Chinese, Malaysian , etc. You order, find a table and pick up your food when it's ready. [Just note that some dishes come out in plastic containers as if you are taking it to-go even though you are dining in]. I opted for a Singaporean spot called Prawnaholic and opted for the #3 HOKKIEN MEE. Don't get me wrong, it was good. But I'm not sure that the dish was that good to equate the cost in terms of portion size or taste. Maybe if it was slightly cheaper, I could make sense of coming back, but otherwise, I think I would prefer buying other dishes elsewhere. Overall, I find that price are high (typical midtown prices for foods) for average tasting foods. I personally was okay with trying it once and would prefer other food options as opposed to this food hall.

I don't spend a lot of time in Brooklyn, so I actually had no idea that the Dekalb Market Hall was a thing until I started zooming in/out on Google Maps. This sounded like the best idea for our group of 4 - we could all get whatever we wanted to eat without having to compromise on one cuisine! Jokes on us, 3/4 of us ended up getting food at Hainan Jones. I had a grilled chicken bowl from Wiki Wiki and we also had boba from Tea Makers. Everything at Hainan Jones was great. The bowl at Wiki Wiki was really good. The boba was just fine. You really can't go wrong with Dekalb Market Hall, there are literally so many options. When we were leaving, we realized there was an entire whole section that we had not even realized was there! A plus is that there are bathrooms inside so you can use it before you leave.

This used to be another unused office building atrium until several years ago they reconstructed it to be a semi Scandinavian minimalist design-inspired indoor park space replete with faux trees, glass baubles hanging from a ceiling decorated with narrow wooden panels. Seating in the form of smaller tables for 4-6, communal tables for 8-10, and bar tables areas are spread over a central tiled ground floor. Along the south side of the space, two sets of stairs (and an elevator) going up to street level are sandwiched between wooden risers that can be used for seating as well. Chairs and small coffee tables are available on the second floor overlooking the below too. Getting to the food: - Teranga: West African bowls that are flavorful and delicious, their juice options are great too. Jollof rice, Yassa and Shay chicken, kewelele (sweet plantains), and my favorite Bouye drink. - Miznon: Israeli/Mediterranean food, yummy schnitzel, roasted cauliflower, stuffed pita sandwiches. - Petit Maman: coffee shop with baked pastries and fresh sandwiches. - KazuNori Handroll Bar: sushi handrolls a bit pricier though tasty, fresh seafood. - Pesce Lulu Seafood Kitchen: I haven't eaten at this one personally though their mahi mahi fish tacos, grilled salmon bowl and fisherman's soup are well known here.
