    A somtum is a must, and all this stuff is killer, too: grilled coconut milk marinated pork skewers, pork fried rice with Thai basil, deep fried chicken thighs, any larb (but esp. the mushroom).

    Authentic Isaan Thai food. Closest to the real thing I've tried since moving to NYC from Bangkok!

    Make a reservation. Larbs and somtums are excellent.

    Holy crap so spicy. Your lips will be numb for an hour after, so good if you like that kind of thing. Dishes are legit and the cocktails tasty and boozey.

    Crab pad Thai is unique and have lots of crab chunks on top. On the pricier side though but expected ($15)

    Most authentic Thai place in NYC! You can tell by the spiciness. This place will not water-down a spicy papaya salad for the "farangs"!! Try the salads and pork larb, just like in Thailand!

    Try a salad where the fruit is tossed with tomatoes, chiles, fish sauce and lime in a wooden mortar and pestle. Add a salted egg if you’re feeling daring.

    My favorite Thai restaurant in NYC! Isan style & several variations of Som Tum salad. Portions are for sharing and very authentic!

    The food was excellent. I feel like any Thai restaurant I've visited before this has been a sham. The food was very spicy though, so make sure you can tolerate it or you'll be in for a long night.

    Chicken thigh/papaya salad lunch combo is a good deal. All the noodle/rice lunch combos are good but standard. Be adventurous.

    The somtums and larbs are the strongest sections of the menu. Mushroom larb is fantastic, as is the grilled pork neck somtum. Skip the rice and noodle dishes (other than the sticky rice, order that!)

    Better than uncle boons AND you don't have to wait two hours for a table. Seriously, come here and get the duck larb and tell me I'm wrong.

    Great new Thai restaurant in the neighborhood. Try the many varieties of Papaya Salad (Somtum) - the original is my favorite!
