    I was just there last weekend and I like the whole fish curry (i think there's only one one the menu) and really liked the spicy beef salad - a staple of thai restaurants but done well here. The other two dishes were decent but not memorable (i literally can't remember what they were). I don't think you'll be disappointed with anything, if you like the description you'll probably like it. the only thing I had to complain about concerning the food was the curries didn't come with enough sauce. I think this has to do with the fact that it's more upscale so its trying to be a little more understated, but more upscale thai places i've been to before (not in NY, in asia) usually had more curry, it was just of a better quality than a run of the mill place.

    the cocktails all looked good too, but i didn't have one.

      As far as the food goes, the rib appy is good, but a tad sweet.

      I have tried most of their menu and have yet to have anything bad, and
      I am especially fond of their salads and soups. For mains, the fish is
      usually very fresh and tasty as is the steak dishes.

        The best "not to miss dish" is their muddled-berry mojito. Best in town.
