Exceptional service that felt like coming home. Our waitress took her time walking us through the flavors and creation behind every dish and cocktail--it made the whole experience feel personal and intentional. This East Village gem has a beautiful, intimate design and was surprisingly easy to get a table for lunch. Cocktails that impressed: * Sodalite: Unexpectedly delicious--unique, perfectly sweet, and refreshing. * Not a Mango Season: I'm not a bourbon fan... but this changed my mind. Every sip was magic. * Morning Dew: A thoughtful homage to My Neighbor Totoro--nostalgic, creative, and absolutely loved it. * Thai Iced Tea: Hands down the BEST I've ever had--rich, creamy, and balanced without being overly sweet. Must-try dishes: * Braised Pork Belly: Melts in your mouth. Juicy and bursting with flavor. * Nua Yang Jaew: Perfectly cooked, seasoned, and seared. I'd crave this any day. The ambiance made the whole experience even more special. I'd definitely come back to try more--very excited to try more cocktails and see what the creator dreams up next!

Great brunch spot! Came here with a couple other friends on a Saturday right around opening time so the place had plenty of tables open when we were there. I ordered the Chu Chee Curry Shrimp Omelet which was fantastic! Would definitely recommend. I normally would try something new, but I would definitely consider ordering the same thing again cause it was that memorably delicious.

I'm right around the corner from this Thai restaurant and have been missing out! The food, service, and decor are all top notch - real authentic Thai dishes and service that isn't too overbearing. My favorites were the crab omelet $22 and the soft shell fried crab in curry $32. The omelet has a hearty portion in the center and is well complemented by the sweet sauce. The soft shell crab comes in a tumeric curry and is so good on top of rice - the flavor is not too spicy and super flavorful. The pork belly $26 is a really good size and comes with rice as well, tender and tasty but not a stand out dish to me. The steak $28 is beautiful and a bit well done, it needs the spicy sauce it comes with to soften it up a bit. The fried calamari $13 is tasty and the other app is a shrimp and minced pork egg wrap egg $15 is good as well, and pretty unique but not as much flavor as one would expect. My friend really enjoyed the cocktails and hopefully we'll be back, I'd come back for the soft shell crab curry alone!

Food was okay most Thai spots in Manhattan are pretty average. Small spot, but wasn't very busy seems like it's easy to walk in! Service was great and they had great music playing. Good for a quick dinner

Cute quaint women own Thai place. I tried their mocktail which was delicious. I also had the crab fried rice and soft crab dish

4.5 stars. Exceptional service will make you feel at home at this inventive Thai restaurant in the middle of the East Village. We went on a Saturday at lunch and the place had plenty of seats. I'd still make a reservation, though, as we went on a holiday weekend. La Tiang: beautiful to the eye and yummy to the tastebuds. Peek gai: it was good, but next time I'd skip it to make space for something more interesting. Tim strawberry: so simple and yet sooo good! Beware... it's spicy! Kra prao ribeye with basil sauce: this is the spicier of the two ribeye dishes and, in my opinion, the better one. The marination is delicious and the meat as tender as you'd expect. Don't miss this dish! Nua yang jaew ribeye: also very good, but it loses a few points due to the sauce which I didn't find to match the flavor of the meat and comes cold, taking something away from the succulence of the ribeye. Mango sticky rice: good, but I've had better ones. Seasonal. Thai tea crème brûlée: decadent and a must-order. Overall, we had a great meal and loved the quiet ambiance. I'd definitely return to try other dishes I didn't get to taste, such as the pork belly and any of the noodle options. Keep in mind that portions are not big and dishes will quickly add up to you tab. Recommended.

Stellar! So good that I went back again in the same week! First I met up with a friend on a Tuesday night, they take reservations though we didn't make any. Only a handful of tables occupied in the restaurant at 7pm. The space looks pretty new, a mix of traditional and modern--deep marine blue walls painted with traditional Thai figures offset by the caramel wood tones of the table and seats. Service was prompt and friendly. We ordered the Pad Thai $20 and Pad See Ew $18 to share. So I normally don't order pad thai because it can be mediocre at some Thai restaurants, but boy this one punched the flavor bell and then some! The rice noodles really stood out, bouncy and slightly chewy in a good way (QQ for those who know the term), the shrimp were plentiful and plump, the bean sprouts crisp and fresh, the tamarind sauce was delicious and brought the authentic slight tang of SE Asian cooking. Sooo good that I kept thinking about it all week and had to order it again. The Pad See Ew was solid with slippery noodles, plenty of pork and slightly crunchy Chinese broccoli, a pleasant sweet soy sauce. Less standout than the Pad Thai but still good. Convinced another friend to come on Saturday and reservations are recommended on weekends, the restaurant was packed and we got lucky to snag two seats at the bar. Ordered the Pad Thai (again very good and my friend agreed), La Tiang $15, and the Pu Karee $32 based on other Yelp reviews. The La Tiang were 3 pockets of marinated mince meat and shrimp with greens wrapped in a delicate netting of egg. A tinge of Birds Eye chili added a spicy kick. Fun to eat and loved the balance flavor that wasn't too salty. Augh, WOW, that soft shell crab was something special ~drooling~ now it's been a minute since I last ate soft shell crab and I didn't know what to expect, sometimes the thing with thin-shelled crustaceans is that not all the shell is light and crispy. But that wasn't a problem here! They included TWO full crabs perfectly crispy swimming in an tumeric egg curry pool of deliciousness. Yummmmmmm. Certainly will be back! Thanks for two tasty meals in the past week!

We were able to make a reservation online for the same week and they had a lot of availabilities. The restaurant is small and the tables were close together in the back where we sat. We ordered the Yum Geaw (Spicy Crispy Chicken wonton toss with spicy dressing), the Braised Pork Belly (5 hours slow cooked pork belly in five spices Shiitake mushroom and baby bokchoy), and Pad See iw (Pork with wide rice noodle in sweet soy sauce). The wontons did not have a lot of filling, but I'm glad that they were able to adjust the spice level for us to make it less spicy. The pork belly was very tender and flavorful. The noodles were good, but nothing special. The portion size was on the smaller end for the price, but everything tasted good. The service was attentive, and everything came out in a timely manner. We did feel a bit rushed towards the end because they tried to take the food away, and then they let us know that the next party was here. There is one spacious bathroom in the back of the restaurant.

My friend and I tried Rynn on a random Tuesday afternoon and the restaurant was completely empty. The restaurant was clean very vibrant. They also had a bar that had that flavor inspired drinks, but we opted out of them. The server was nice and attentive and the food was delicious. We both ordered items of the lunch menu and the portions were perfect for lunch. I ordered the Grilled Ribeye which was tender and cooked perfectly. It also paired really well with the savory tangy sauce that came with it. My friend ordered the fried Branzino which she loved. It came with a variety of mix-in's like fried shallots, chili peppers, cucumber, red onions, etc for the bed of rice. She asked for more sauce and the server had it out in seconds. Lunch specials came with a same salad appetizer that was spicy, savory and refreshing. I highly recommend and I definitely will be coming back with more friends.
