This is one of my husbands favorite restaurants! I’m so glad he showed me this gem. The food here is so absolutely delicious, every meal is oozing with fresh flavor. I love that there’s a separate vegetarian menu and so many vegan options! This is truly a place me and my non-vegans partner can enjoy and leave satisfied. Customer service is always amazing, food arrives pretty quick too! Very attentive staff. 10/10 place and food.
The appetizers like soft shell crab, shrimp cake and chicken wings are delicious. The coconut chicken soup is creamy and refreshing. The pad thai, pan fried minced meat, fried eggs and the Chinese broccoli are all well cooked. Overall we enjoyed the service and the food here, and we had a great family dinner here!
This is a place where you have to know what to order on the menu to really appreciate it. Get the morning glory, it's delicious and the perfect balance of crispiness and savory. The egg omelette is also an amazing, local favorite that is inexpensive relative to the other Thai places you might find in the city. We came in with a big party, and they were able to accommodate despite being pretty busy already. The waiters are constantly on their feet attending to your needs and questions.
Our friends from Thailand invited us to this hidden gem. I was really excited to try the food I once enjoyed in Phuket during my vacation: papaya salad, red curry, tom yum, mango sticky rice! All those sweet memories turned into delicious dishes made with love by Thai people. The place has a charming veranda decorated with artificial flowers, peacock figurines, and a little fountain — the atmosphere is simply amazing. The team is incredibly welcoming, and we always said khop khun ka/krub (thank you in Thai).
SriPraPhai truly lives up to its reputation as one of New York City’s most beloved Thai restaurants. As vegan diners, we found the menu very vegan friendly and every dish was incredible and fragrant. Large portions, we shared 4 dishes and had plenty of leftovers.
Wow this has to be one of the best traditional Thai food outside Thailand! Went there with two friends, around 3pm, service was good, everyone is kind and attentive. I really enjoyed the fried shell dish, sticky rice, papaya salad, and the sause on the fried pork was to die for!!! The only dish we didn’t enjoy was the trout but the red snapper was delicious. Even the lychee martinis were really tasty! We even order food to go that’s how great the food was! Will def be back!
We chose to sit outside. They have a really nice outdoor dining area in the back. Drunken noodles were really good. Red curry was pretty okay, would not order it again. Bunch of vegetarian and vegan options available.
A really nice place restaurant. Soothing and relaxing atmosphere. There's a nice shaded patio in the back with a waterfall. Very clean and fresh inside. The food was fabulous. The menu is large. I wish I had gone with someone. Then we could have shared and experienced more item. Worth going back.
