This Thai restaurant has garnered praise for its exceptional dishes, particularly the chive pancake, which reviewers rave about for its unique texture. The tiger shrimp, cooked to perfection, is another standout, served with a spicy green sauce that has been described as "ridiculously excellent." The crying tiger, a popular entree, has also received high marks for its flavor and quality. While the food has been consistently impressive, reviewers have noted that the wait can be long, even during busy periods. However, the price is considered worth the wait, and the restaurant's hours and reservation policies have not been mentioned in reviews.

Excerpts

One of the best thai restaurants I have ever been too. The thai tea was one of the best I have ever had. For entrees we got the crying tiger the soft shell crab curry and the duck curry. Everything was amazing. The duck was my favorite because it was so tender. The wait wasn’t even that long when they were busy. The price is definitely worth the food and experience

Excellent spot for tangy and flavor-packed Thai food. I recommend getting the chive pancake by a lot. The texture is very nice, glutinous but not too heavy. I also recommend the tiger shrimp which was cooked perfectly from head to toe as a light cook, accompanied by a ridiculously excellent spicy green sauce. The steamed fish had great texture, meaty and moist without being dry, and the sauce would go well with rice on its own. The sauce is very tangy and thus works well with the fish's flesh. I would order this again for two people. The crying tiger had a great rice but the steak was just normal. I was thinking about why I think the steak is normal and I realize that in most of these preparations you get flecks of salt that bring out the meatiness. Also in those preparations the meat is piping hot. Here the meat is a normal cut but could be better with a bit more technique. The space looks like a classic Thai place with the bamboo seats and wooden accents. For being "near" Times Square, it's an excellent find. One note: the mains are now $40+.
