Amazing! Really loved the atmosphere! Everything I've had here has been delicious. Both appetizers will leave you wanting more. I highly recommend getting at least one appetizer to try. If you can generally tolerate spice then the khao soi won't be an issue. & If you like a sweet thai tea, definitely give this one a try. All the drinks looked amazing, I hope to try one the next time I return!

SERVICE - located on the intersection of 13th st and 3rd Ave in east village - very close to Union square train station - highly recommend making a reservation as they are busy every night - small interior with tables for groups of 2-4 - environment can be noisy since the tables are close together but we were still able to hold a conversation - ambiance is nice for a semi casual/slightly more formal meal - service is quick despite being busy MENU - unique selection of Thai entrees and appetizers with a focus on noodle soups - vegan menu available - slightly pricey ($25 per entree) FOOD - persimmon Massaman curry (8/10): peach, melon, cauliflower, shallot, and crispy seaweed in a bed of spicy persimmon coconut milk curry with a side of rice. Out of the two vegan Massaman curry options, the server recommended this one since it was the winter special. I had never heard of a fruit in a curry other than mango and pineapple so was intrigued to try it. Visually it was a work of art. In terms of taste, I liked the contrast of the sweet fruits with the warming curry. I was not a huge fan of the almost raw cauliflower. I also would have liked some protein to add an umami note. WOULD I GO BACK? Yes, i would want to try one of their other seasonal specialties.

Wow, literally 10 stars for Soothr. I was seriously blown away by everything - from the restaurant interior, to the kindest service, and the some of the most fragrant and flavorful Thai dishes I've ever had! I'd been to Sappe before Soothr, so was VERY excited to finally try it! I tried the: Khao Soi Sai Ua Koong Karee Crab Fried Rice and ALL were phenomenal. I loved the Crab Fried Rice, I think especially because of the sauces it was served with. The Khao Soi was insanely flavorful and you could taste every single herb in each bite. Definitely make sure you mix in those noodles well! The Koong Karee was so unique in its flavor, and the shrimp were juicy and cooked to perfection. Would seriously go back tomorrow and every day after if I could!

Believe the hype! The food is incredible. I can't remember how Soothr came into my radar but I definitely counted my lucky stars when my party of two was able to get a table with minimal wait (20 mins) and no reservation around 630p on a Monday. Soothr has a good table system and it works, but try to get a reservation in advance if you can. This is not the spot to hang out with someone you haven't seen in 20 years. It's going to be tight and you are not shooting the sh*t here, you are ordering as soon as you sit down and eating delicious and memorable Thai. We had read some reviews + asked the server about their most popular dishes and ended up going with the duck rolls, moo dang puff, duck noodles and the Koong Karee (shrimp in curry). We were next level delighted with our selections. The shrimp curry dish was my absolute favorite and thinking about it still makes my mouth water. Flavor explosion. I wanted to really love the duck rolls but some of the flavors didn't come through as much as I had hoped after reading the description. Still a solid choice! We ordered drinks too but these were standard in my book. I would skip next time. The service is great and the staff is polite but firm about their one hour and 15 min table max. All in all, Soothr is a gem and I look forward to the next time.

Food here was amazing! Made a reservation online a few weeks ahead of going and was very excited to finally try and see how it compares to other Thai places in the city. I would highly recommended the Koong Karee and the beef Pad Si Ew as the entree selection. The restaurant is always packed but it doesn't feel overwhelming. Service is very quick as you are limited to 1.5 hours. Will come back again!

Finally got to try theThai restaurant in the city with all the buzz on social media. Safe to say it was worth the hype and that Michelin guide four years straight! We managed to snatch a reservation like two weeks ahead. I heard you can walk in but be prepared to wait. The servers are very friendly and attentive. You will walk into a pretty yet unpretentious space with overall great ambiance. My partner and I got moo dang puff and gyo pla (fish dumplings) to share. I also got myself nam tok moo. We might have ordered a little too much but everything was phenomenal. Moo dang puff has a crispy pastry (a little oily in my opinion) and well seasoned filling. I really loved gyo pla - it has an interesting texture and well balanced taste! Nam tok was the best nam tok I have ever tried so far in the states!! They have an interesting drink menu based of gems and I know they are also well-known for their drinks but I didn't get to try them this time sadly. I will definitely go back for more! -8.7/10

Highly recommend making a reservation in advance! Came here for lunch and ordered items mostly from their seasonal specials menu (ending on new years). Got the Xiao XingXing (dumplings), Had Yai Chicken, Soi Dao, and Persimmon Masaman Curry. The dumplings were delicious and had a nice meaty filling. The chicken had a perfectly crispy skin and was juicy and delicious with the sweet chili sauce. I really like the Soi Dao which had squid ink noodles. It was flavorful with just the right amount of heat and nice chunks of crab meat. The curry was a bit too sweet for me. For dessert, we got the Thai Choux which also came with a scoop of Thai ice cream. This was super good and totally worth the $16. Service was attentive and very helpful in suggesting what to order. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and was able to point us to things within our spice level. There is a cozy and welcoming ambiance with warm lighting. They allow 1hr and 15 minutes once seated.

Best Thai food we've ever had Entrees are ~$25 and there are nooo misses! We got the crab fried rice, duck noodles, koong karee (shrimp curry), and mango sticky rice. This could feed 3+ people, totaled to be ~$120 w til. All of it was sooo good, would get everything again except maybe the mango sticky rice (it was good but not super special). Resys are so hard though so look early! Instagram - @joangela.eats

We had a reservation for a Saturday at 6pm. Restaurant was packed and seating in general tends to be a little cramped here so I was anxious. They offer coat check at the entrance to help mitigate that - a considerate touch, but I noticed most patrons decided to keep their coats with them. We were seated at a table in the back room which I never knew existed until that point (my first two visits were at the bar and a corner table by the front window) It provided the most spacious seating arrangements in the house and we were happy to be seated against the wall. Heating lamps above set to 73 degrees kept us comfortable. We placed orders for drinks and food. Both emerged within no more than 5 minutes. Had Yai Chicken and Yum Kaw Moo to start. The chicken (2 drumsticks and a thigh sliced neatly in half - clean through bone) arrived steaming and fall-off-the-bone. Tendons removed from the drumsticks. They're a low carb-delight: deep-fried sans batter. The grilled pork salad was a perfect combination of sweet, spicy and sour with a hint of salinity. A carnivore's dream given the only vegetables in sight were of the herbal variety. The lime dressing was so good I used it on the fried chicken. The mains arrived next: The Panang Duck Lychee Curry was nice but the star of the show was the Crab Fried Rice. To be clear: it was the fried rice portion they perfected. Tastes like it came from a 7-star hotel. Such a centerpiece I decided to box it to go as soon as the full-meter hit a comfortable 8/10 because I didn't want the discomfort of stuffing myself to detract from my enjoyment of it. Also because I was reserving space for dessert. We ended the meal with the Seasonal Thai Choux. Wonderful presentation with an enjoyable range of flavors and textures. I enjoyed the buttery aroma from the choux but my favorite part was the chewy mouthfeel of the Thai tea gelato gently interrupted by crunchy cacao crumbles.

Food: 4/5 yummmm!!! Food here was really good and I got to try something o wouldn't normally gravitate towards thanks to the recommendation of our server. I ordered the Karee Pu Noodles and loved them! I did get a side of chili sauce to add because I love spicy, and that made the dish extra good. The amount of crab that comes with this is fairly decent and I liked the thin spaghetti like style of the noodles. Also had the duck rolls with wood ear mushrooms which were very good! I have to say Thai I've had in queens has been better, but I've enjoyed this meal! Atmosphere for date: 4/5 I loved the atmosphere inside the restaurant, just keep in mind tables are all very close together! I would not recommend eating here if you are a larger person (even for me squeezing in between tables was hard and I'm only 5'3) I don't think it would be very comfy if you are looking for more spacious seating/ have a large group. They do have a coat check which is helpful but it's tight quarter inside. Think this would be a nice date place if you wanna be near someone and it wasn't too loud to talk / although not super quiet either. Definitely a hustle / bustle about the place. Service: 3.5/5 For a really nice restaurant the service is good, but they are so busy they don't seem to have time to explain the menu in depth, etc. maybe this just isn't part of the experience but I wouldn't say the service stood out in any way. It wasn't bad, but just typical of most restaurants.
