    Naam Tok Noodle Soup

    Delicious Thai food. Quick service and friendly staff. Can't wait to try other dishes on the menu.

    I think I went off the grid and ordered a non traditional Thai dish on my first visit here. Granted, most of the menu outlines dishes unfamiliar to me since they're noted as authentic, Northern Thai cuisine with "street" food selections. When an initial check in (can't delete check ins on Yelp) at a local Greek spot didn't work out, we landed here. And it was getting to be on the later end of the night so we wanted something "light". Decor was gorgeous and our server was friendly albeit a bit lackluster in terms of service. I found it odd since there weren't many patrons at all, but she was super nice. I ordered a Jasmine tea (huge cup) to accompany the Steamed Chicken dish with Ginger rice. A side bowl of broth was part of the meal. So I've had Steamed Chicken at Chinese spots and hoped theirs would be similar. It wasn't. The most off putting thing was the soft skin still attached to the boneless Chicken of which I hurriedly swallowed a piece. The chicken was bland but the side dipping sauce jazzed it up a bit. The rice had the Ginger flavor but the broth was too salty. I used some of it to wet the chicken. I'm summary, I'm meh on my experience here but won't write it off. Will give it another try and update my review. Stay tuned.

    Side note: At least for now, they're using the same website as the old Ghang Thai for ordering but it seems they're making a site via Toast (which means you can order from there eventually which is good as the prices will be more reasonable for delivery compared to Grubhub/Seamless.) Other side note: As per below, if you order spicy here, it'll be very spicy (upper my tolerance and I am used to very spicy food.) I'd recommend mild or medium for folks used to let's say Pad Kee Mao. Anyway, this is the newest of the many (many) Thai spots in the area but this one is a bit different. While their lunch special mainly has the standard Thai dishes outside of a few notable exceptions like Pad Ped, Num Tok, and Yen Ta Fo, the main specialty of the restaurant is Northeastern Thai, i.e. Isan food. It's my personal favorite region for Thai food as I like the spicier, sourer, and bitterer side of it. The closest thing are a couple dishes at Boran which is a good 15 minutes walking away from here in Carroll Gardens. I went with the Yum Naem Kow Tod to go shortly before they closed for $19.00 listed as "crispy rice & soured pork sausage. Double fried rice croquettes with sausage, kaffir lime, ginger, chilies, mint, and roasted peanuts." The staff in front was nice and the music was light and as noted, they were closing soon. This is one of my favorite dishes from Isan and I've had it at their other spot along with some places in Elmhurst. I ordered spicy which was a slight mistake but it was delicious. A bit of crunch, a bit of sourness and sweetness from the sai ua/northern Thai sausage and the kaffir, and some nuttiness. It was excellent though I'd likely order medium next time if I wanted to not have to drink a good amount with the dish. Just as good as the other location so nice to have this dish around here.

    pork skewers

    A genuine authentic northern Thai restaurant in the heart of Cobble Hill. Just a heads up their spice level is drastically different to what the normal person deems as spicy so choose accordingly! The pork skewers we ordered were extremely tender and flavorful. Definitely a must order for the table! Loved the papaya and fried rice pork salad. A really great place to grab dinner with friends. The servers are super sweet and attentive. The only issue we had was there was a sign outside that read cocktails, wine and beers were discounted during happy hour but when we ordered cocktails they had charged us full price and told us cocktails were not included in the promotion.

    @zabbputawn with Michelin-starred Chef Therdtus "Tony" Rittapromis offering an authentic taste of Northeastern Thai cuisine is easily added to my fave Thai places list . Everything served is so flavorful and gave me a memorable impression. I was genuinely impressed by both the food and the atmosphere. From the moment we walked in, the warm lighting and subtle Thai decor created a cozy, welcoming vibe. Northern Style Pork Ribs are so tender and juicy without being overcooked. Crispy Duck Red Curry had a rich coconut flavor with just the right kick of heat. The vegetables were cooked to perfection -- not mushy, not raw. Whether you're a longtime fan of Thai food or a newcomer eager to explore authentic flavors, this restaurant promises a memorable dining experience. Highly recommended ! What we ordered : - Gaeng Hunglay ribs (Northern Style Pork Ribs Stew) - Chef Tony's Winning award from Rib King NYC 2022. It's a must ordered dish ! - Crispy Whole Red Snapper with Tamarind Sauce - Crispy Duck Red Curry - Gaeng Om Isan Style Soup with dark meat chicken and vegetable.

    Hopefully I labeled everything correctly here -- Our group of 3 ordered 4 dishes to share. We were hungry and everything was delicious -- the sausage was surprisingly my favorite though my neighbor liked the salad best. And my son seemed to like everything! The place was calm and the waitstaff were pleasant. Many of the dishes were spicy though I'd think that one could ask them to be prepared less so. The menu also labeled well -- gluten-free and vegan items. Well done!

    Be aware. The sign reads 4pm but they meant to say 3pm

    Taste is just average but be aware of the lunch special scam. They place a handwritten sign for lunch special till 4pm but once you enter, they proceeded & showed me a printed menu with lunch special till 3pm. When I pointed out the wait person said "oh the owner has to change that ( outside hand written sign ) " and she offered me to have appetizer that I've get from lunch menu but she never did. A few other customers came in after me inquiring lunch special so the scam signage is definitely working. I would value honestly in business so I would not return.

    Blue crab papaya salad
    Benjamin B.

    Thai restaurant with a focus on the northeastern Thai food of Isan. Originally located in the Upper East Side, this location in Cobble Hill makes for a strong new addition to the many Thai restaurants in the neighborhood. The decor feels kind of what you'd expect and the restaurant itself feels like a really long hallway although the table spacing is kept comfortable. Although they have the standard fare you see at most Thai restaurants across the US, this place really shines in dishes with flavor. We ordered a variety of things and ate family style to try things out. The waitstaff are quite nice and accommodating, also seemed like they were all speaking Thai to each other which is honestly a bit of a surprise considering this isn't even their main location. The Isan style papaya salad, som tum pu, comes with some absolutely delicious marinated blue crab pieces. Everything in the salad is just deeply savory and seafoody with a pleasant amount of heat, more-so than a lot of other Thai restaurants in the city but nowhere close to unbearable. Maybe not for you if funk and seafood isn't your thing but it was probably my favorite papaya salad I've had in the city. The laab moo kua was super flavorful and also pleasantly spicy. The dish had a really nice balance of textures between the ground pork, crispy skin (that is kept super crunchy by leaving it on the side, outside of the sauce), and the crunchy cartilage and the spices and chiles keep everything feeling quite light. The naem gradook moo are these deep fried, cured pork ribs that are deeply crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. I honestly find lots of skewers and grilled meats at Thai restaurants really disappointing because they lack the char and crisp that I'm looking for with that type of food but this dish fully satisfies that need. Although there are certainly some people who will find the meat to bone ratio disappointing or even a bit too much work for the reward, I personally found that gnawing to be just pretty satisfying and a bit nostalgic. Only complaint is that the dish comes served with slivers of raw onion and some massive slices of raw ginger. Maybe it is custom to just gnaw on some ginger to cleanse your palette but it just feels like a bit much and I was the only one who even tried it. Just a bit of explanation of what to do with it would be nice, silly as it may sound. The yen ta fo noodle soup is fairly mild seafood soup brimming with toppings. The broth tastes like a mix between a clean pork broth and a bit of funk and savoriness from the red soybean paste. The seafood was all satisfying although kind of made me wish I had the massive sweet prawns common to South East Asia. A surprise delight was the snow fungus which just gave a little soft, slightly crunchy textural experience while also serving as a perfect little mop for broth. Only disappointment was the nuer yang. The beef suffers from being cooked a bit too much to be really beefy and tender but also lacking the char I would want from a grilled marinated meat. The jaew dipping sauce was lightly sweet and salty although I would have loved more depth or spice. Not even really a bad dish by any means but just really disappointing considering how good everything else was. This is definitely a product of how new the restaurant is to the neighborhood but this restaurant hits the holy trinity of being easy to get into, pretty reasonable in price, and just plain delicious. I can't imagine that the first point will last all too long but even with a wait, this restaurant deserves to stand alongside the other really great Thai eateries in the city although a lot of the flavors and textures here are really quite catered to my palate and what I grew up with. Honestly, my only complaint is that I want to try other dishes next time I'm here but I also want to relive some of the bites I've already had.

Our group of 4 started with a bottle of Pinot Grigio and a few appetizers to share, namely: Som tum papaya salad and dumplings curry. For the main entree, my eyes caught the attention of clay pot mix-fried rice with shrimp, chicken, sweet sausage, and my partner chose shrimp pad thai. Nothing really stood out with the dishes; I found it to be a bit Americanized, having eaten in so many Thai restaurants around New York City. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner here; our food came in timely fashion, and the customer service is good as well, but it's probably not your place if you are seeking a more authentic Thai-style cooking.

    I eat Thai food every week and this is probably in my top 10 in NYC!…read more The staff here are super friendly and all the drinks/apps/entrees/dessert were good, which is so hard to find! PLEASE get the mango stick rice cocktail omg it was gone in like 5 sips because it was so good. The tuna ceviche was so refreshing and the sauce had a little kick to it which I absolutely loved! It was like a sprinkle of Thai on a classic tuna ceviche. Note the taro chips are a little thicker than a typical chip! The pork jowl wasn't as crispy as I expected but it was still flavorful and the portion size was huge, considering how it was an appetizer. We got pineapple lychee crispy duck, crab fried rice, and kana crispy pork over rice as our entree. ALL WERE SO GOOD! The curry for the pineapple lychee crispy duck was so creamy and flavorful, with the duck portion being huge and being the perfect texture. I loved that it was crispy and didn't get soggy fast in the curry. The crab fried rice was top tier as there were SO MANY HUGE CRAB PIECES!! You can definitely tell that it had flavors of seafood/crab.. they did not skimp out! And the kana crispy pork over rice was huge portion as well, but note that it was a big strong/saltier than the other dishes. For dessert, the pandan coconut pudding custard was SO yummy. It was warm and so flavorful and creamy!! I fell in love with Brooklyn even more after coming here. Highly recommend!!

    My husband is insane and eats the spiciest foods. I do not. So this review is mainly from him since…read moreI couldn't really eat a lot. Server was friendly but stern and told him he was ordering too many of the spicy dishes - I think he would've been fine though (and we intended to bring home leftovers anyway) so that was a little annoying.

I feel differently about Hungry Thirsty. At this point I've been to countless Thai restaurants, and for the most part they've all been fantastic. Compared to all those fantastic meals the flavors here still stand out and I'm excited to read that they're expanding with additional locations. They have a phenomenal and lengthy beer selection, which is fun because it complements the spicy fried dishes quite well. The fried branzino and shrimp and squid in salted duck yolk were very tasty with white rice but the dish that lit up my taste buds was the Kai Jeow Pu- colossal crab omelette. The egg was deep fried in an aromatic oil and filled with fresh, large pieces of crab and served with a phenomenal zesty sauce. The place is tiny and no frills, and our server chafed at my partner for pronouncing a beer on their menu incorrectly, which just added to the experience. I loved it here!

Unfortunately, I have to admit I was pretty disappointed. Most of the dishes, especially the sauces, they were extremely salty! - Beef Tartare "Dine-In Exclusive" -- I'd skip this one. The beef was very dry, and it came with taro chips and greens but no sauce to tie everything together. Definitely not what I expected from a tartare. - Enoki Bloom -- Crispy, perfectly fried enoki mushrooms that I actually enjoyed. The only downside was that it was also very salty. The creamy green sauce on the side helped balance it out. - Crying Tiger -- Another skip for me. The steak was dry, tough and chewy, and the meat itself was pretty bland. The sauce had plenty of flavor, but again, it was way too salty. - Pork Jowl -- Probably my favorite dish of the meal. It was perfectly grilled, tender and flavorful. I'd skip the sauce though since the pork was already delicious on its own. - Crab Curry -- Unfortunately, another very salty dish. I honestly don't know how it got this salty. I was expecting more of the spicy or slightly sweet flavors you normally get from a Thai curry, but the salt completely took over. Very disappointing!!! - Thai Iced Tea -- This was actually really good. Creamy, rich and not overly sweet. The menu changes seasonally, so unfortunately, some of the dishes I had seen online were no longer available when I went. I was really looking forward to trying Tong, especially since it's so close by, but overall the meal just didn't do it for me. I probably wouldn't come back or recommend it based on this experience.
