If you want good Thai food and plenty of it, this is the place. I had dinner at this place and loved it so much I went back the next day to eat there again. The pad Thai is a perfect 10 and they make awesome curry dishes as well. Good spot to bring a date to as it’s real nice inside and there’s even an open air roof top terrace in the back perfect to have a couple of drinks…

5/5! It was a little slower than what I was expecting. I can’t even tell you why! It’s amazing! We order for appetizer chicken satay, and the flavor was all there. Still drooling over the peanut sauce and the cucumber side that came with it. For our meal we ordered yellow curry, and that had a good strong flavor as well as a bit of a kick to it. The other item we had was pad Thai with chicken. If I room for round two then I would! The servers were very nice and never let our water go empty. They also were very quick to making sure our table was cleared of dishes before the next dish came. The atmosphere was great, and the food and service was better. If I make it back to NYC this is ON MY LIST! Thank you, Little Thai Kitchen!

This place has the best pad Thai! Easy pick up, my go to for pad thai

I hadn't been here before and it was my first time. The ambiance is so elevated, and the food was just truly delicious! For being in Manhattan, the prices were very reasonable, and for the quality, it was just perfect. Everything was beautifully presented! We only had 2 apps, and I couldn't finish my last bite of my main dish. Their fried calamari was perfection! The roti canai was heavenly! For my main dish, I had the Volcano Chicken, and it was delicious. I want their fried rice next time!

staff was so nice and food was amazing. the service was so quick and amazing . 100% coming back

Beautiful interior, well decorated, and with great atmosphere. Was seated and served quickly. Had appetizer and entree lunch special: curry puff and drunken noodles. The noodles were very soft. Food was great and prices reasonable (especially for Manhattan). Would come again.

We ordered the chicken satay, steamed pork dumplings and a larb salad. Everything tasted awesome and the staff was really kind with wonderful service. Oh and I also had a yummy blue Hawaiian drink during happy hour. It was fabulous as well!

Great food, great atmosphere, great service, even the employee / owner were eating lunch together. 😃 Lunch special 15 dollars for 3 course meal. It is truley the hidden Thai gem of midtown NY. 🥟🍜🧋 I had the green curry, rice, and noddle soup for 15.

Yum! Fantastic little place... large portions, fresh ingredients, bright flavors. Plus, great recommendations from our server. Will definitely return!

Best massaman curry I've ever had. Amazing. The strawberry mojito was good too. Nice atmosphere, good service.

They've moved a few doors down to a beautiful little space that's inviting and very clean and fancy looking. Lychee iced tea, spring rolls, and ginger chicken. Everything super delicious. Quick service and very friendly. And the seating is the most comfortable seating I've been to. It does matter! U feel very taken care of and classy.

Me and boyfriend were just walking around NYC as we don’t know it well and came across Little Thai Kitchen. There was a Thai place across the street but this peaked out interest due to the Drunken Noodles and the vibey atmosphere. Delicious food and very quick service. It has a great vibe and the restaurant had great music.The Mango Curry was delicious! Packed full of flavor. LTK was a great spur of the moment dinner spot! Definitely recommend! And not too expensive!

My son and I had dinner at Little Thai Kitchen on the last day of our trip to NY. We were so glad we found this wonderful place. We started with vegetable dumplings. I had Thai Red Curry and my son ordered Chiang Mei Noodle Soup. Both very delicious! Excellent flavors. Service was quick and the staff was very friendly. It is always nice when people take time to chat during the rush of the evening. This was a wonderful dining out experience. Thank you!

Tiny spot serving up absolutely delicious Thai food. Do sit down, it’s really cozy and the staff is nice. They have a great lunch special that includes an appetizer (get the curry puff!)

Their dishes reflect careful preparation and servers maintain attentiveness. The flavor is exceptional. The food here meets both physical and emotional needs. Their staff helps navigate the menu when you look unsure. The atmosphere here is good.

Really great Thai food! I did a lunch pickup and got two new to me dishes: -Chicken Pra Raam Lunch (Sautéed peanut sauce with steamed broccoli. Served with jasmine rice.) -Chicken Gang Kaur Lunch (Coconut red curry with pineapple, tomato, cashew nuts, bamboo shoot and onion. Served jasmine with rice. Spicy.) The first dish had a really nice peanut sauce. The layer on top was thick, and a little more thin with what was at the bottom of the bowl, but a good amount of chicken and brocolli. Crushed peanuts on top too to add a crunch. The Chick Gang Kaur red curry was just as I had pictured it. Nice fruity sweetness. Could have used a little more heat, but had a good amount of protein and veggies. Prices were very fair. Will definitely be back.

Great place for the business lunch, with quite soothing music, nice quick service It was tasty but if you want spicy 🌶️ ask for more mock duck 🦆 is not duck 😂 I’m guessing all could figure that out 🥹 I did not; still very interesting taste

We had the best little lunch here. The serving sizes were smaller than most places, but everything about LTK excentuates how tiny the place is. I ordered a Chicken Larb salad for the first time, and it instantly became a new favorite Thai dish for me. It tasted sour, spicy, and warm with just the right amount of each, for me. By the time I thought to take a picture it was too late--the food did not survive long enough. We also ordered vegetable spring rolls and steamed veggie dumplings in addition to my wife's eggplant basil order. I'm surprised this place doesn't have better reviews, we just had the best lunch date today and can't wait to go back.

The BEST Thai food in the city tbh. If you’re choosing between Thai options, pick this place you won’t regret it. The Tom Kar soup is full of flavor— highly recommend this as a starter. Drunken Noodles w Beef are amazing, the beef was a great texture not too tough.

BEST PLACE FOR A PARTY!!! We had a wonderful retirement party at the LTK on 53rd Street between 2&3rd Ave. The owner Kasiya is GREAT!!! She gave us a beautiful section with an outdoor garden for our party of 34 people. The prefixed menu had SO MUCH options with drinks, appetizers and entree. She was able to accommodate all the special requests with allergies and preferences from our guests. The restaurant crew wrote our guest names on each dish and drink!!!! It was so awesome and considerate. Kasiya prepared a table for us to put our own dessert and coffee. We were able to get there 10 minutes earlier to decorate. I felt bad leaving a lot of our trash from our dessert table at the end of the party. The crew was helping us clean up. We supposed to have the party between 7 to 9pm and she let us stayed until 10pm. God bless her soul for giving our retiree and our guests a beautiful memory and great times. Thank you again, LTK and the owner Kasiya!! BTW, the food was DELICIOUS with vegetarian, gluten, nut & shellfish free options!!

This Thai restaurant is a cute spot with both indoor and outdoor seating, making it a nice place to relax and enjoy a meal. I came during lunch and thought the lunch special was a great deal. While the spring rolls weren’t fully heated, the pineapple fried rice was flavorful and satisfying. The service stood out—it was very friendly and attentive throughout my visit. Despite the small issue with the appetizer, I had a positive experience overall. I’d definitely consider returning for another meal.

One of the best Thai restaurants I have been to . I found them while looking on the Crave App. Decided to give it a shot. I had a made a reservation through the app. We were seated right, but this is a small spot. Our order was taken right away and service was amazing. Food and service was truly on point . I highly recommended it !! Ambiance- 8/10 Service - 10/10 Happy Hour - NO WiFi - Not Sure Reservation- NO Definitely worth trying !! Not recommended for large groups

From the Tom yum soup to the chicken pad Thai to the non-alcoholic beverage, everything was perfect! The service was stellar. We wished we saved room in our bellies for the all you can eat dessert spot upstairs.

Fantastic, elevated casual Thai food restaurant with all the menu favorites. Their lunch special was a great deal with appetizer included and good portion size. Highly recommended!

Beautiful interior, great food, reasonable prices, and friendly, efficient service. Noodle dishes were good. Curry was marked spicy on menu, but lacked fire. Thai ice tea was really good with a strong tea flavor, not an instant mix. This block of 53rd st between 2nd and 3rd has some really good casual restaurants and a cool vibe.

OMFG how have I never tried this place before yet I've walked by for YEARS for work?! 10/10! Great food, quick service and very friendly, warm and welcoming staff. My new fave spot! I ordered Pad Thai with Mock Duck ($16.95 including tax) for takeout and it was *SO QUICK & fresh!!* It actually made me nervous that it was so fast because then it might not be good. However, it was delicious!! So flavorful and the mock duck was so tender and juicy! I wish the portion was a bit bigger but still my new fave spot omfggggggggggg

Amazing!!! Love the tom yum soup and shrimp fried rice. Been going here for over 8 years. They just moved to a bigger location a few doors down. Great service, good price, great food.

Very chic place, looks like a hotel. I was worried that the food might not be very authentic at first, but it turned out to be better than my expectations. The Taiwanese luorou was very tasty and the Thai fried rice tasted exactly like the comfort food I wanted. The Thai milk tea was delicious, as was the lemonade. The waitresses were nice and attentive, and the food arrived almost immediately, in big portions. Very worth the money!

Excellent food! So many vegan options! The chive pancakes and spring rolls are great apps. For mains, they can make any of the curries and some of the fried rice vegan. Must try!

We thought the food was delicious! Green curry and Tom Yum were incredibly flavourful and yummy! Very nice atmosphere too.

Ive came here a couple of times now and i can confidently say I Love everything here, i always get the papaya salad and its just amazing never disappoints. Ive tried the volcano chicken, pineapple duck curry, taiwanese pork rice bowl, and a few other dishes and they are consistent with their quality. I haven’t had a bad meal yet, my sister and i love this place and will keep coming often.

Betty Eastland

Gorgeous restaurant. The beef boat noodle soup (gluten free) and basil classic dish were fantastic. The taste is complex, well seasoned. The vegetables were el dente and very fresh. The staff was nice, thorough. They asked about allergies. The restaurant is quiet and the music is not loud which makes conversation pleasant. It's a beautiful well lit space. The only issue is they need to professionally print the menus. The are worn out and a little shoddy looking. They don't match the gorgeous atmosphere. Great food, great service, excellent atmosphere.

Saveur Spot

A great spot in midtown for lunch. The set menu was perfect as I was hungry when visited. I came with a few friends and we got to sample a good amount of food. The staff were friendly and the food came out very fast. They also have a dessert cafe upstairs. We wanted to check it out but the staff mentioned it opens around 5pm.

Little Thai Kitchen in Midtown is a hidden gem in plain sight! The food bursts with authentic flavors, perfectly balanced and full of freshness.

Such a cute and cozy Thai spot! Everything was absolutely delicious — fresh and flavorful from start to finish. The fresh oysters 🦪 are a must-try! I also loved the shrimp roll, curry puff, and Tom Yum soup with shrimp — all bursting with authentic taste. The Nasi Goreng fried rice was especially amazing, perfectly seasoned and comforting. Can’t wait to come back and try even more dishes — everything on the menu looks incredible!

Such a great atmosphere of a restaurant and place to have large dinners since there is two floors. I would've rated 4 stars because I had their lunch specials which was amazing with the salad, but the veggie dumplings were not my favorite and the pork was not too crunchy. The jasmine rice though went great, meal was enjoyable especially their branzino and short rib curry specials. I wanted the rib to really fall off the bone, it was okay but the curry really sold me. Filled with flavor. Branzino was definitely favorite item and their guava margarita made less sweet and their sake is really delicious. Service was nice too so, I give it 5🔥 Check out our amazing video on and follow Instagram @jadaexploresall!

This restaurant is beautiful and delicious. Underrated. The red spells drink yummy. Rose and lemon. The blue Hawaiian was good because it wadnt too sweet and had a good amount of liquor. The. Crispy pork was perfect. Exactly as it looked. The show stopper was the purple dumplings Sweet, salty peanuts and savory. The grilled branding was fun to eat and excellent. Nice char with fresh raw veggies and pork skin. Definitely paired nice together. The ginger steamed fish was sweet and sour and perfect.

After a hiatus of four years, I made my grand return to Little Thai Kitchen, a culinary oasis that still shines brightly amidst the chaos of the world. Nestled snugly in its new, expansive abode, the restaurant has expanded its horizons, quite literally, while retaining its impeccable standards of service and cuisine.Stepping into the revamped space, I was immediately struck by the warmth of the atmosphere and the inviting layout. It's as if the restaurant whispered, "Welcome home," as I took my seat. With the Central Synagogue as a neighbor, this eatery undoubtedly holds its own as a must-visit destination.Now, let's talk about the food. Oh, the food! Little Thai Kitchen continues to be a haven for lovers of Thai cuisine. From perfectly cooked prawns to tantalizing shrimp pad Thai and sumptuous Thai chicken curry, every dish is a symphony of flavors dancing on my taste buds.And let's not forget the desserts. The coconut ice cream, chocolate custard, and mango sticky rice are like a culinary love letter, each bite leaving me swooning in gastronomic delight.But what truly sets this place apart is its libations. Whether it's the delicious wine that complements the meal or the refreshing Thai iced tea, ice tea, or chocolate frappe, every sip adds an extra layer of bliss to the dining experience.What's more, the convenience of food delivery only adds to the allure of Little Thai Kitchen. Whether you dine in or opt for a cozy night at home, the flavors remain just as impeccable, thanks to the dedication of the kitchen staff.Speaking of staff, the team at Little Thai Kitchen deserves a standing ovation. Their patience and dedication to providing top-notch service are commendable, elevating the dining experience from great to extraordinary.And while some may argue that prices are average, I say they're a steal for the quality and quantity of food and service you receive.In conclusion, if you haven't yet experienced the magic of Little Thai Kitchen, what are you waiting for? Treat yourself to an unforgettable culinary journey, where every bite is a passport to paradise. As for me, I'll be back again and again, for this is more than just a restaurant—it's a culinary sanctuary where dreams come true and taste buds rejoice.

So good! Great little spot with lots of vegetarian options. Nice atmosphere. Tasty!

Good food, service was a bit grumpy but no big deal

Overall the food was good but the Tofu pieces were too big and silken tofu. Veggies in the soup were very big and a skin was left on an onion. Papaya salad had good flavor but very little papaya to lettuce ratio papaya on top hiding bed of lettuce. Ambiance and decor was great and very fast service, we were also asked 3 times if we were enjoying everything.

Love this place! Have been ordering pickup and delivery for a few weeks now. Delicious every time. I’ve been ordering the Pad Thai and the Vegetable Egg Rolls. I only wish their egg rolls had 4 in an order, rather than just 2! Staff is lovely, great local place to support!

Great place Amazing food Could do wwith more space ot seating

Decent Thai place that's good for a quick bite. They had lots of options on the menu and prices were affordable, but don't expect to be blown away. I got the basil tofu & mushrooms and it was exactly as the menu promised. Portion size was reasonable and the food came quickly.

Great Thai food, the Thai fried rice was delicious. Great food, good prices for NYC. Overall great place to eat you have to try it.

Great place for takeout. I like how you get request extra vegetables. Good sized portions, would recommend.

A small Thai restaurant but the food packs big flavors. There’s only 4 narrow tables so seating is limited and tight. I order my food to go here as it’s quick and easy. My go to dish is the drunken noodles - good flavor, perfect amount of spice and ingredients!

A very small Thai with 12 seats. All meals are smaller and cheaper at lunch time. Authentic cuisine and friendly service. No tourists ;-)

+2

Best part is the food as it should be. Well presented dishes with vibrant colors and flavors. This is a solid lunch spot with a very good price fix lunch menu. Service is mediocre as the staff take far too long to handle simple requests and are not very attentive even while standing around chatting amongst themselves.

I've been ordering from Little Thai Kitchen for many years and have enjoyed their authentic dishes. Sadly, I've been disappointed as their dishes haven't gotten smaller and more expensive. I ordered the basil with rice and shrimp with tofu as an add-on for $6, totaling $21 (excl. Tax and tip). They are skimping out on the veggie when you add an add-on. When I took out the tofu, the dish looks ridiculously empty. I hope they make necessary adjustments soon. --- 8/12/24: I ordered the garlic shrimp w.rice today and they gave more shrimp this time. Portion is still small.

Excellent Thai spot. The food was delicious! The panang curry was perfect and spicey. I recommend getting the crab fried rice and the cheese crab wonton appetizer! The restaurant was a peaceful scene, and the service was great.

Really nice Thai place: the decor here is really above average. Considering their lunch prices, makes for a good local option. I ordered the ginger sauce with chicken. Portion was a bit small though. I will probably be back to try a curry dish.

Very good option for Thai food midtown. The spring rolls were amazing. The fried rice was good, but not the best we have ever tasted. Service was very quick.

Pad thai was great, I really enjoyed it. We ordered the corn salad, which did not look similar to the picture on the menu at all. It had a very distinct and sharp smell that we did not expect on a salad -Turns out it has fish sauce, which is not specified on the menu. We could not finish it, so I’d suggest staying away from that. Also, bathroom soap is mixed with water. A LOT of water that it’s not consistent. I understand the need to lower the cost, but customers also need to clean their hands.

Place is small , extremely nice waiters here. Food came really place. It's a good place to go if you're craving for some spicy food. This is definitely not the type of spicy that makes your tongue burn . It's that nice type of spicy that have lots of flavor! I had the drunken noodle and a noodle soup.

WoA WoA

The summer roll was very good. However, I’m unsure if the decorative leaves are being reused across dishes, which is a bit concerning. The soup wasn’t spicy at all to me, and the quality of the vegetables could be improved — it was mostly stems and quite tough. I wish there were more fresh and tender vegetables included. On a positive note, the service was excellent, and the outdoor space is great — a very nice atmosphere to enjoy a meal.

David Cabanzo

Delicious Thai food!! Flavorful curry but mango a little too ripe and not enough pieces, and not enough meat. I wish I could’ve had more of that delicious pork. The Pad Se Ew tasty and great portions of mock duck. First time eating at their new location. Very nice new restaurant, and service always on point. Wish I could give it 5 stars but the current can definitely be better :)

Located on a side street on the upper east side of NYC, the LTK has a wonderful atmosphere on 2 floors. The menu is vast with choices for everyone, but I found the prices a bit on the high side. Roti Canal is $12.95 -- I have never paid that much for this appetizer which is usually $6-7. Pad Thai was bland and the steak tartare only ok. The Leo beer was tasty, but this isn't something the restaurant prepares. Not sure I'd return.

Really really tasty curry, fair prices, good menu, poor customer service/food safety. Ordered for myself and my partner and noted that my partner has a shellfish allergy and was assured that there was none present. Fast forward and now they’re getting hives. Thankfully their reactions aren’t bad, but I wouldn’t bother taking a risk at this place if you have an allergies.

Pleasant staff and clean restaurant. I had Massaman curry with beef. Although beef sliced thinly it was very tough and inedible- visible grizzle. The massaman curry was very good and I ate that with the rice. FYI on the weekend dinner prices only even if you eat at lunchtime. I missed that information.

Had lunch there today. Curry sauce is good but several Shrimps inside was uncooked. It’s easy when the shrimp is cooked well it’s red outside , white inside. Couldn’t eat I don’t want a diarrhea.

Having been here before I visited with a work colleague, food was brilliant as always. The new restaurant is very nice. But as we left, we were chased out the restaurant by one of the waitresses saying we didn’t tip…. But we had ticked the receipt to give the required tip. This was embarrassing & no apology. Left a bitter taste in our mouths and might not come back. It’s a shame.

The drunken noodles is decent and the restaurant/vibe looks nice. The portion of the papaya salad is a bit sad. I can't complain too much bc it's lunch special.

Gemma Kim

I ordered red curry which was delicious but when I asked to pack the leftovers, they put the curry and the rice together in one container like this. Who does that? I’ve honestly never seen any restaurant do this before. It’s like they were trying to save a container or something… not great at all.

I’m a regular customer and usually enjoy the food and service at your restaurant. However, I had a disappointing experience during my most recent visit. I ordered my usual—garlic shrimp with vegetables and rice—but this time, the dish was extremely dry, lacking any sauce or gravy. The shrimp had no flavor and the vegetables were bland. However, not everything was bad the shrimp rolls, was great! To make things worse, the drink I ordered was terrible—nothing like what I’ve had before—and I was still charged for it, despite mentioning it wasn’t good. I was really surprised and let down, especially because I’ve had such great meals here in the past. I hope this feedback is taken constructively, because I truly want to continue supporting your business.

While the service was very nice and atmosphere okay, I was disappointed with the Neua Nam Tok I ordered. It was not necessarily bad, but it didn't taste anything like the authentic dish I was expecting, which is the reason to come to a Thai restaurant to begin with. Dish was lacking the fresh and vibrant flavors of the spicy and sour dressing, fresh herbs, and toasted rice powder. I understand from the staff that they didn’t have some of the same ingredients, but this is problematic, especially as the site mentions carefully selected ingredients for the right flavors. Plus some of the missing flavors are from basic herbs that would be easily available in the city.

We went there for a set lunch. The Thai fried rice and Pad Thai had almost 0 chicken!? The mail waiter was very rude and impolite. It was very hard to get soy sauce and his attitude was very very bad. The chef was alright. We will not come back and not recommend the restaurant to Asian arriving friends.

Slightly less than average for food and service. Average for atmosphere. Ordered duck salad and basil fish last night. The dressing for the duck salad was candy-sweet and was so off-putting that we barely touched it. The fish filet itself was tasty but the outside was no longer crispy when it arrived, and there were very few veggies. We ordered brown rice to add to our meal, but the waitstaff didn't replaced the white rice with it instead of treating it as an addition. Not understanding this, we asked for it halfway through the meal. Decor is warm and inviting near the front and middle, but garish near the back. There should probably be curtains covering the kitchen since the florescent lights kill the vibe.

I ordered the tamarind shrimp lunch entree for $13 and received six small shrimp with some pieces of iceberg lettuce. No broccoli, no rice. Tasted fine but did not match the description on the site and the value was non-existent.

The worst service I’ve ever received. I would never come here again. They make payment imposible if you need to split the bill. If you’re with friends or co workers, keep walking and go eat at any of the other 4,000 Thai spots in this city.

I placed a lunch order through Seamless for a shrimp Pad Thai. It was very bland and dry. This was my second time ordering Pad Thai for lunch and it was dry before. Needless to say I will NEVER order from this place again. Very disappointing for a $21 lunch especially when you are hungry.

4 of us from Argentina went to this place for dinner on May 7. The food was great but we had a bad experience when the check arrived. We left around 10 usd of tip for a 90 usd check and the server *refused to take our money* because “the tip was not enough”. We know that in the US it is customary to leave around 15 percent tip. But tipping is voluntary and we found it very rude that the server wouldn’t event take our payment. Alternatively, she could have suggested a higher tip or something like that but not refuse to take our money. In the end I added more to the tip since I didn’t want to get into conflict. But I would never event return to this place where tourists are treated this way. If you are a tourist, think twice before dining at Little Tai Kitchen.

Food was decent at first but that didn't last long. The tables were super sticky. There was food floating around in the water the gave us. The customer service was great. They had an interesting music theme going,and a nice feel to the place. I do not recomend eating here if you haven't tried Thai before.

This was the worst Thai food I have EVER eaten. I ordered around 8:30pm, and went to pick up my order. They were really nice/polite, which is why I gave them any stars at all. The brown rice was so overcooked. It was mushy and wet. Not to mention they charged $2 extra dollars for that. I got the green curry, and I'm not kidding it was the worst curry I have ever had. It was watery, and didn't have the right flavor. I could hardly taste the curry, and it was like they had drowned it in coconut milk. I rarely leave reviews, but this was so bad I had to warn other people. Really disappointed considering how much I love Thai and green curry.

It's in the 20's outside and they have the front door open so a bitterly cold breeze blows through the restaurant. It is extremely unpleasant. The wood bench is freezing to sit on and the stone tabletop is so cold it cools your food the minute it's placed before you. Even the plate is cold as if it had been in the fridge I find it very strange that a restaurant is so inconsiderate of their PAYING CUSTOMERS. Terrible. We won't go back.

We went to this restaurant because we searched it via google review, it shows 4.3 which means should be good. We ordered some dishes including 2 takeaway Tom yum noodle soup to takeaway, but when we got back home we realised there were no noodles, just 2 small bowls of soup there.

I witnessed one of the servers berate a group of girls last night regarding a tip. It was extremely unprofessional of the server to behave like that and this is not a good way to run a business.

My friends and I had a reservation for 5 pm. The doors were closed when we arrived so we had to wait on a line outside the restaurant. After waiting about 20-30 minutes, we eventually saw that the door was slightly open. Even though the restaurant was empty, one waitress was scrolling on her phone when we inquired about whether they were open. No one came outside to inform us that they were ready for dinner service, so if it wasn’t for our asking, there’s no telling how long we would’ve been waiting on the line. The hostess who seated our group was named Cee, as per the name on the receipt. She seated us and took our orders. One of my friends mentioned to a male server who brought out our food that she received the wrong food—she ordered pad see ew but received pad Thai. The gentlemen took the food back with a promise to bring the correct order. Instead of apologizing for the error, Cee came to our table and insisted that my friend actually ordered pad Thai, which was untrue. We were all shocked and my friend said okay to keep the peace. Cee continued to walk by our table throughout the night, failing to ask us how dinner was going despite doing so for other guests. When reviewing our receipt at the end of the night, we noticed that we were charged $6 for lychee iced teas, despite the physical on-site menus displaying $5. Although this may seem like a small difference, we wanted the prices to reflect the advertised price per the menu we ordered from. I informed another waitress of the error, who eventually came back with an updated receipt. We paid for the dinner in full with cash, intending to give the second waitress and the male server cash tips for their kindness. However, after taking the receipt, the waitress went to speak to Cee at the bar. The waitress returned and stated that we only paid for the food and were expected to tip. We explained that we were planning to tip her, but due to her demanding a tip and the overall negative dining experience, we no longer intended to do so. The waitress again informed Cee, who came to our table and loudly demanded that my friends and I give her a tip. She spoke over us, cut me off, and told us to get out. On our way out, she gave us hostile looks and repeatedly told us to get out, slamming the door behind us. As per older Google and Yelp reviews, it appears that LTK is known for berating customers and demanding tips. This was such a disappointing experience, considering the food was quite good. However, customer service should always be at the forefront. I will not be returning to this restaurant and am highly dissatisfied by this experience.

The food was really good which is why it was unfortunate that the experience was ruined by unprofessional and rude behavior. My friends and I made dinner reservations for 5pm. When we arrived at 5, the doors were locked so we joined the queue outside. We ended up waiting in line for 20-30min before one of us decided to check at the front to see if anything was wrong, only to discover that the restaurant doors had been opened and the hostess/server was on her phone. No one bothered to come out to make sure people were aware that they were now ready for the dinner shift. Deciding to overlook this, my friends and I followed our hostess/server to our table and placed our orders. I ordered the Chicken Pad See-Ew even pointing it out on the menu to make sure she understood my order even if I butchered the pronunciation. After a few minutes, our orders came out and as the male server placed them on the table, he said the name of the dishes. The dish I got was Chicken Pad Thai, something I didn’t order and had been hoping to prevent this exact misunderstanding by pointing at the Pad See-Ew. After politely letting him know I had originally ordered a different item, he apologized for the mistake, I told him it was totally fine, and he took the Pad Thai back to the kitchen. What I had thought was a closed matter was reopened when our hostess/server came back and starting telling me that I definitely said Pad Thai. I was shocked because I thought she was going to apologize for the misunderstanding but instead she doubled down and blamed me for the mistake insisting I acknowledge something I didn’t actually say. Afterwards the dinner had a weird vibe, my friends noticed that our server stopped coming by the table to check on us and only came by to serve us water once. At the end of the night (only an hour later), we decided to pay the bill total in cash and not give tip to our server (Cee - the name on the receipt) because she had been rude but we thought the other wait staff deserved something for their respectful behavior. Intending to give the second waitress her tip at the door as we left, we started to pack up our things only for the polite waitress to come back to us and let us know that we hadn’t given a tip. My friend told her that a tip was suggested and based off good service which we did not receive from the moment our reservation was suppose to start. She said “oh okay” and then clearly looked toward the front of the restaurant where our original server was as she left our table. Deciding that this had been an extremely weird night and we should just leave with no one getting a tip, our original server comes back to our table and starts yelling about why we didn’t give her a tip, what was so bad about her service, and how it’s NYC culture to tip and she couldn’t believe we didn’t even give her a 10% or 15% tip. As if all this behavior didn’t prove why she was not getting a tip, my friends very politely tried to de-escalate the situation only for them to be cut off and immediately dismissed once “Cee” didn’t like what they were saying. After she stormed off, we continued to pack up our things and as we left the restaurant, one of my friends told her to “do better” and that made Cee go off again and tell us to get out and that she doesn’t care - which was clearly shown by her disinterested behavior from the beginning of the night and is a terrible quality to have in a customer service job. I hope the management of this restaurant can care more than their employees to fix this server’s attitude problem and make sure they don’t lose more customers as this seems to be a recurring problem based off another Google review from earlier in the week. ⭐️/5 - only because the food deserves a shout out.

I had an extremely rude encounter with the hostess Cee (name stated on the receipt). She had short hair in a half up, half down style. From the moment my three friends and I arrived at the restaurant, she was disinterested and on her phone. When my friends and I ordered, Cee got one of the items wrong. We had ordered Chicken Pad See Ew but received Chicken Pad Thai so we informed the male server who brought our food and he apologized and changed the order for us. Immediately after he went into the kitchen though, Cee came to our table and began yelling, stating that she didn’t get the order wrong. We tried explaining that she did but she didn’t care and continued to yell, trying to gaslight us and intimidate us to say that we ordered the Pad Thai when we in fact did not. Before we could say anything else, she said but don’t worry the order will be corrected. We were put off by that because the male server already solved the situation so her extra commentary did nothing to help. An apology would have put everything to rest. She visited our table once after the fact to refill water but catered to the other tables at the restaurant multiple times, and spent the remaining time at the bar. Another server, who had longer hair, came to check on us briefly and was polite so we wanted to put Cee’s rude behavior behind us. When it was time to pay, we noticed that we had an up charge on some of the drinks we ordered so the server with long hair assisted and gave us the corrected bill. Because Cee was so rude, but the server with long hair and male server weren’t, we were going to give them a tip separately. The server with longer hair came back to us stating that we didn’t include a tip and we explained that we were planning to give a separate tip to her and the male server (in cash which was our payment method), and not Cee. She was still trying to force us to give a tip stating that in NY, tips are required so at that point we decided to not tip at all because tips aren’t required and we didn’t want to reward Cee for her disrespectful and unprofessional behavior. Once the server informed Cee of what happened, as we’re packing our stuff to leave, Cee comes behind us and starts yelling again saying that we’re required to tip and that in NYC, that’s the law. It is in fact not the law. Tips are experience based and our terrible experience with Cee warranted a 0% tip. We were asking her to lower her voice because she was still yelling and other people in the restaurant were looking but she didn’t care. She stated that the noise in the restaurant was loud which wasn’t true because the other server spoke to us at a normal volume. As we’re trying to let Cee know why she wasn’t going to get a tip from us, she yelled and said I don’t even care, you all need to get out. We were already leaving so what she was doing was unnecessary. Cee went back to the bar and as we were leaving, she looks at us with disgust as if we did something to her. You can’t treat people rudely and still want to receive a tip. One of my friends stated that Cee needs to do better and not treat people the way she did and Cee starts screaming at us, stating she doesn’t care and doesn’t want to hear what we have to say. She even slammed the door behind us, again acting as if we wronged her. Whoever manages this restaurant needs to put her, and any other staff member who acts similarly, in customer service training again or remove her/them from the establishment because no customer wants to be disrespected, insulted or yelled at for something they’re not at fault for.

While the food was great the service was horrible. We went as a group of 4, but the hostess/server Cee (as per the name on the receipt) made the experience awful and I would never go back or recommend this place because of her. I'll continue to refer to her as Cee, but in case that's not her name, she had short dark hair, half up half down, upturned nose and spent most of the night in the bar area. Cee sat us down and took our orders and returned to the bar area. When the waiter brought out our food, one of the orders was wrong and my friend informed him. She ordered Pad See-Ew, but was given Pad Thai. The waiter was very polite and said he'd bring out a new one. Shortly after Cee came over very combative and said that we ordered the wrong thing and was adamant that it wasn't her mistake. My friend tried to explain that she did in fact order the See-Ew and even pointed to it on the menu when the order was being taken. Cee kept cutting her off, so she stopped talking. The rest of us also tried to explain, but she was rude and continued to insist that my friend was in the wrong, but that they were going to bring the correct plate despite that. Cee returned to the bar and we decided to brush it off because the other staffers were very nice. Another server (long, brownish hair) came over and we ordered 4 more drinks (lemonade/thai ice teas) in addition to the lychee ice teas we previously had. She was very nice and brough out the drinks promptly. When the food came out, everything tasted great and we had no issues, however we did notice that Cee kept walking by and giving us looks. Upon receiving the bill, we noticed they had charged us $6 for the lychee iced teas even though it was listed as $5 on the menu. Again the server was very nice and went back to the bar area (where Cee was located) to correct it. Due to the experience we decided we'd pay the bill exact in cash and personally give the tip to the server and waiter. She spoke to Cee and came back with both the bill and cash. At first we thought we overpayed, but she stated "the tip is not included", which we acknowledged we didn't add. She said usually tips are given. We pointed out that tips were suggested and not a requirement and that we were in fact going to give it to her and the waiter, but now felt it shouldn't be given due to the experience. She went back to the bar area and then Cee came over very rudely and started yelling that it's the culture to tip, it's a requirement in New York state, we should give money, etc. It's actually not a law, and tips are typically given based on the experience you have. When I told her she was yelling, she got even louder and said that she wasn't, it was because the restaurant was loud. The rest of us were talking calmly and were able to hear eachother perfectly fine. We proceeded to explain that we weren't going to tip because of HER rude behavior. Boy did that set her off!!! She didn't want to hear anything else we said and continued to argue, grabbing the attention of other patreons. She told us to get out and walked back to the bar. The bill had been paid and we were already getting our things to leave, so it was very unnecessary and embarrassing. It made it seem as if we were in the wrong. Why are you expecting someone to tip, when you've been nothing but rude and disrespectful? Then when you don't get what you want, you continue to display that rude and obnoxious behavior, therefore proving why you didn't deserve the tip in the first place. On our way out my other friend told her to do better and it set her off again. She came out from behind the bar and said she didn't care and didn't want to hear anything else we had to say, then proceeded to slam the door behind us. Based on some other reviews (see below), this tip thing seems to be a recurring problem. I'm honestly glad we paid in cash. Had it been a card, she might still try to charge us, as evidence by another review.

I was really shocked by my experience. When I was about to pay, the girl at the bar told me the price was €15. She turned the tablet toward me as if I were supposed to choose whether to add a tip or not. However, before I could clearly see or understand what was selected, she turned the tablet back toward herself, changed something on the screen, and then processed the payment. I later realized that a tip had been added without my knowledge or consent, bringing the total to €18. When I realized what had happened, I went back to the restaurant to address the issue. Unfortunately, the same bartender completely denied everything and refused to acknowledge what had been done. I want to be clear that the rest of the staff had nothing to do with this situation. However, tipping should always be optional and clearly explained, especially for customers who may not be familiar with local customs. This practice felt dishonest and unprofessional, and it really affected my experience.

While I have not been to its physical restaurant (only ordered online through a platform), I’m not here to critic their service and restaurant’s atmosphere. I’m here for their food quality. Just when I thought there’s nothing worse than one other Thai restaurant near me, this one is the worst of all. I have one specific instruction that was never followed (that’s fine, it’d have saved them ingredients), but their chicken dumplings were the worst part. It tasted chemically treated, I could not figure if it’s the dough that feels so thick or the meat that doesn’t taste like chicken at all. It’s a big turn off considering it’s my ALT (all time favorite). While for sure, there are more delicious items on their menu, It’s my personal opinion not to consider this restaurant again.
