Make sure to check your bill when picking up. We ordered online, chose to pay when picking up and total was around 11$. When we went to pick up the bill actually charged was 14$.Another guy also complaint about price display difference. So double check!
The worst manager, and service. These people dont care about customers. They are not responsible and customers are always wrong. I really felt discriminated and disrespected.They will not take a no for an answer when they do a mistake. I was trying to simplify the order for them and all they do is lie. I will never recommend this area. This food is not a 5 stars. I saw all reviews and I respect everyone opinion.
If you’re looking for Pad See Ew (Thai flat, wide rice noodle stir fry) this is it! I’ve been a few times just to confirm...it’s the best. And you couldn’t meet nicer people!
It’s decent Thai food. Not crazy spicy. Delivery was timely. I wouldn’t go way out of my way exactly to have it again, but certainly acceptable.I had a flat noodle dish and it was pretty much your standard fair—spiced down for American taste.If you want Thai food and are someone who really prefers the food to be muted on the traditional spice level it’s somewhere you might consider.I like highly spicy dishes when it comes to Thai food, so that was really my only disappointment here—expecting/hoping for it to be spicier than it came prepared—but it was still good, and otherwise the food was fresh and hot as well as delivered within the given delivery window and the delivery guy brought it directly to my door with no hassle or trouble.
Great find, delicious and friendly folks.
Fast service and tasty pad see ew. Will come again.
My favorite Harlem Thai food. I went here when this place first opened and it was terrible, bland and greasy. But I was bored one day in quarantine and I decided to give it another shot. Im so glad that I did. I dont know if they got a better chef or better ingredients or just a better system but its a thousand percent better. So delicious and so flavorful.
The best Thai food in Harlem! I have ordered different meals and they are all delicious!
Awesome spot to eat something when in a rush. The service is quick, pricing is reasonable, fantastic atmosphere. Will visit here again
Went with the chicken pad thai and thought it was a safe bet. Unfortunately was very disappointed. This did not taste like that delicious familiar pad thai flavor Im used to. The freshness is fine that is not the issue. There us a unique flavor good pad thai has. And in my opinion this did not have it and I would not order it again. Maybe they have other items that are good. We shall see.
The Food is subpar. The pad Thai tasted like they added to much Vinegar and for $14.00 I should have gotten more than 4 shrimps! Not a Harlem must.
Love this place! After several great experiences, they are now my go-to restaurant for Thai food in the neighborhood! Staff is great, food is delicious, and delivery is always hot & fairly quick. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
The food is nasty. Ordered pad Thai and it looks and tastes bad
The food was delicious! A total surprise. Their menu does their cuisine no justice. And the service was friendly and attentive.
Red curry was on point at 11pm eod wish it was more food but it hit the spot like a cheetah, lady was super nice like jasmine rice
Very nice food, amazing service and very low priceAll dishes were very nicely done
The $9.99 lunch special was a good price for the quality of food. The soup was delicious and so were the spring rolls. The pad thai was a little sweet for my liking but I would return. I eat with my eyes 1st and the food looked beautiful when served. The restaurant is small but charming. Fyi: byob restaurant,$10 corking fee per bottle.
Great prices and food
Really solid Thai spot in West Harlem! The place never looks crowded, but dont let it throw you..the staff is super friendly and welcoming and food was really good and affordable.4 of us split a couple of appetizers and each ordered something different from Massaman curry, to fried rice and pad thai and it was all really good.Will be my go-to for Thai in the area for now.
Its a really good place to eat. I went with my girlfriend and we loved it!! Ill recommend the place to my friends and Families👐🏼👐🏼🤗
I tried the food here 3x before I rated it. I live close by, so it was kind of by default.The food is bland and subpart compared to other Thai Restaurants. On my last visit I ordered pineapple fried rice, but they should name it cabbage fried rice because there was more cabbage than pineapples and cashews.
Weekly spot!
I just ordered from here on Uber Eats. Your name is Pad Thai, yet somehow you managed to mess up a signature dish. The chicken Pad Thai I ordered tasted like it came from a can. The noodles were mushy, the sauce was too sweet, and there were only 3 pieces of chicken.
Gave this place a couple of tries.. Food is often late and cold. This time it arrived 30 min late with the pad see ew spilled out of the container. The restaurant was also super rude when when I spoke to them on the phone about the situation. It’s covid, and restaurants are having a hard time but this is not the way to do business. Won’t be ordering from here ever again
I live down the street from them and theyre awesome. Super nice great food price is right. Totally go here
I always come buying some food here. I loved the prompt service and well made dishes. Fantastic work.
Food was delicious, service was great, and the wait staff friendly. Definitely going back & will order for delivery.
Absolutely a place worth visiting, the food is fantastic and fresh, the prices are affordable and it is consistently neat there. Fantastic work.
Food was delivered 40min late in a broken container. My dinner was cold and extremely oily, it’s an absolute mess, I had to throw it out. The restaurant was super rude, when I made a legitimate complaint he called me a liar.
Surprisingly tasty! Was walking in NY without much direction and stumbled upon this place. Good service, good price and great taste
The BEST Pad Thai I’ve ever had hands down. This is definitely a neighborhood gem! The service was great, not too busy, a lot of fresh flowers in and outside the restaurant. So perfect for casual delicious food.
Been eating here for years and enjoyed it. Unfortunately I got horrendous food poisoning from them. Only thing I ate that my gf did not so I’m sure it was papa thai. Order with caution...
Love this place. Small, cozy, simple, priced right, and huge portions.
The food is beautiful, really beautiful! You need to visit this place you will love it!
Friendly. Good service. Good food.Owner invited me back to sample different foods that she plans to cook for me.
Amazing cuisine and service. The perfect choice for a late night meal.
Small restaurant that looks pretty standard on the outside but serves great quality tasty food. Go in hungry because the portions are really big.
Cute little place. The portions were pretty big for the price. The food was also pretty good. We ordered curry puff, duck and the fried pompano fish with thai ice tea
Very good service. Quick delivery. Thank you!
This place is amazing. The Thai food is the best Ive had outside of Thailand. You have to try the vegetable dumplings. The food is so legit. People who gave it bad ratings probably dont like legit Thai food. (Though I havent tried the sushi yet).The price is so much better than the places downtown, too.
The customer service is always quick, lovely ambience, very friendly staff. Will eat here again when I am in the area.
I will back, service was great. Food that I order was GOOD.
This was a miss for me. I ordered several plates of their Basil Fried Rice, and it just did not connect. No one was Wowed. Im sure they have other dishes that are more of a specialty item to them.
Very friendly staff. Great food at reasonable prices. I recommend supporting this store, because of the nice people whom work in it, and for the delicious foods at affordable prices. Stop by, and enjoy!
Good food and prices, excellent customer service.
Cute little place with amazing chicken spring rolls, but the rest of the food was just meh. Chicken fried rice was bland & the chicken larb was okay but not great.
Service was very hospitable and the food was authentic. When I got home I lack amenities in my bag. No sauce of any kind for my food.
Do not eat here unless you want to die! This place was disgusting and rude! Sent me food with EGG SHELLS in it, literal EGG SHELLS! Then when confronted, refused to give a refund! Who the hell does that! FDA needs to be informed.
Excellent food, lots of flavors. The 3.9 current star rating underestimates the place!
The place was airy and clean with a very attentive waitress, and we had the veg dumplings for starters and the red snapper for entre and it was die perfectly.I would recommended this restaurant to anyone who is looking for Thai food.
Good food and for he price it’s a lot of food .Clean and nice service!
Delicious Green Curry (with chicken). Ordered it “medium spicy” which for me was minimally spicy (after being warned that their “spicy” it really hot). Chicken Pad Thai was awesome. Perfect sauce and portion. A touch sweeter than standard NYC Pad Thai.Friendly staff. DEFINITELY coming back or ordering takeout.
Its an okay place I ordered Pad Se Ew Noodles and dumplings. Asked for spicy but got non spicy.
I really enjoy the food here. The food is very good and tasty. This place is very affordable.
Dang i did not take a picture. But WoW the Red Snapper it’s SUPER DELICIOUS. Out of this world... PaPa Thai you made my day.... thanks
Food was tasty. Staff and chef Peter were charming. Not fancy set up - still welcome to bring your own bottle - but a meal well worth having.
Yummy food and wonderful and attentive service
Good Thai food! Solid from their spices, flavours right up to and including the flourishes of carrot sculptures are even awesome!!
Delicious indeed! Got the lunch special so wasnt too expensive either! This is red curry pad Thai!
Not great Thai food. Kind of greasy and nothing special.
Very tasty food and awesome staff :).
Great food, great price plenty of selection this is our Thai spot in Harlem!
Affordable prices. It’s very nice that their food is halal. Not much halal Thai food in places exist. Conveniently located near the train.
Do not order delivery from them. They will say it’s delivered the. Not show up after you’ve paid.
Food was just okay. I got the salmon and the sauce on top was delicious. The rib eye had a ton of fat on it. The rice was so tasteless. The hummus too tangy for me. Pita bread ass salad was yummy. couldve been cheaper.
Great service, I had the Mango Spicy Chicken, it was delicious.
The atmosphere, food, and staff were all wonderful and the bill was way less than I expected. I felt bad for the staff when this obnoxious group of racist came in and started being discriminatory towards asians and were just loud, which actually spoiled my time, a little. Id have stayed longer if it werent for that group. Overall, Im definitely going back here! Highly recommend this restaurant.
The Pad Thai & Thai iced tea was amazing. The staff & chef are very friendly. Beautiful ambiance.
Better than Sex!
Love their food and great service
I never take the time to write reviews but Im doing this so theyll do well because I never want them to go away!! First thing I ordered for delivery was their grilled shish kebaba. Came with salad, rice and amazing roasted peppers. I ordered the same for delivery the very next day. Im ordering it again now. Nice to have you guys, welcome to the neighborhood!!!
Love the food, very clean place
Had the chicken Pad Thai, its pretty average compared to other places in New York and the same price. Friendly staff though!
Good food at good prices. Filling portions.
Worst service ever rearely meets worst food ever, but in this place they did the impossible! I ordered the duck tamarind through Seamless and after it was marked as delivered i still hadn’t received it in 10 minutes, i called them and apparently they were “very busy” so ok, i waited another 40 minutes until i ran out of patience and called again (contemplating calling Seamless). The phone line was busy indeed. After finally getting a hold of the person on the other end, my order finally arrived. But after unboxing it, my eyes could barely believe what they saw. To cut it short, the food was cold, ridiculously drowned in duck sauce and most of it were bones. Could not force myself through even half of it. Stay away from this place!
Superb food, attentive service.
Pad Thai and coconut chicken soup were delicious. So were the spring rolls. Wouldnt recommend the curry puff or the dumplings. The puffs were a little stale tasting. Presentation very nice as you can see!
Worst Pad Thai and Shrimp Tempura I’ve ever tasted. The noodles were watery and hard, the chicken inside the Pad Thai was rubbery and had a weird taste. The shrimp tempura was so fried, it was actually burnt. The food made me nauseas I couldn’t get pass the first two bites.
Great consistent food and Customer Service. And I love Ann the Chefs wife
I constantly come getting some food in this place. I love the rapid service and well prepared dishes. Kudos.
Probably worst Thai food ive ever tried and i got a very basic basil fried rice
Good Thai food at a good price
Forgot why i stopped eating here. Every dish is kinda odd for some reason.
Very tasty, the staff is very friendly.
I love this place my fav Thai spot and it’s quiet and in the cut hosts are very nice and food service very fast
Lovely food great sevice
Pad Thai @ harlem just opened.Nice and simple decorLunch special @ $9.954 dining & pick up(12:00 pm-3:00pm)Reasonable price with awesome taste..BYOB .. no charge.Delivery service is available (minimum is $15)I enjoyed thats why I’m writing this reviewCome to Pad Thai to enjoy great cuisine!
Excellent service and food
Momos was excellent serve very nice
Great service by Pat! Highly recommend this place!
The food was very good
The garlic beef and roast fish are both great. Best papaya salad Ive ever had outside of Thailand.
Awful, they’re not cooking, microwaveable meals, presented as made in house. Avoid it
Their phone is disconnected. Rude on the phone and my delivery is lost
Really good food!
Ordered a lunch that I thought would have broccoli and chicken. There was no broccoli and it was mostly all pasta.
Horrible service. Waiting for delivery for 1,5h , they are not picking up the phone. Will never order again.
Penang curry and tom ka soup were great!
We tried falafel, shakshuka and Chicken Tagine with couscous. The chicken was moist and subtly flavored; the falafel were pressed thin, coated in sesame and had a nice coarse texture. Shakshuka is a difficult dish for take-out; it had less tomato sauce than is common. Overall the food was fresh and satisfying. Although we ordered for pick up, there is a wine menu for dining in and the ambience is simple yet warm. Prices are average for sit-down restaurants in the area.
The best special lunch!!!!
Good food!!
Great food!!
Food was extremely bland compared to the cost not what I expected
The best in town!!!!! Pleasantly surprised!!!
Fried shrimp is the best!

I ordered food from this restaurant on Uber Eats. The food was great. Moreover, customer service was amazing. I definitely visit this restaurant by myself soon! Thank you.
We ordered take out. Expensive for lousy quality. The food tasted bad, I hardly ate in case I felt bad.
The food is delicious, especially Pad Thai, as the name suggests. The curry is delicious.
Highly recommended, inexpensive and delicious! Pad si uw and sweet sticky rice were excellent. The evening before, sushi and curry were delicious!
Wait a long time for a common meal.
Very good food! 😍😍😍

2022-06-07Probably the worst Thai food I’ve had in America. Shockingly bad. Disgusting. Hardly any meat in the massman curry. The pad Thai was flavorless and 3 pieces of chicken, and the spring rolls sickening, all this for nearly $40. What a joke. AVOID.
Review №2
2022-02-25I just ordered fried calamari and it was super greecy and taste disgusting. Just look at the bottom of the container smh. I felt like I was eating Greece. In the past I had order pineapple rice from them and even that wasnt as good as other Thai cCuisine Resturants Ive been too.They really need to work on thier skill set when it comes to the kitchen. Just the appearance of the place also speaks volumes.

2021-10-06BEWARE! ROACH in FOOD!!! Ordered food from them previously and it’s been decent. This time I ordered and was putting the Panang curry on my rice and a roach was in the Panang curry!!! Disgusting!!! I called the restaurant and they offered to send another order and I said absolutely not, I want a refund!!! The manager called me back and asked if they could get the food back and they would refund me. No apology or anything. Terrible experience!!!

2022-04-15Ive ordered the whole red snapper with jasmine rice 2 times before but it was from a Thai restaurant in queens, I was so happy to see that this restaurant had the same dish but for 2 orders at the price of $65.22 it was the worst Ive ever tasted. For one the fish wasnt seasoned and it tasted like it was fried in old cooking oil, the sauce for the fish wasnt spicy all I could taste was this sweetness. Definitely wasnt worth the price.

2022-03-27Food was not bad. For the entree I got Pad Kee Mao drunken noodles with beef & chili sauce and it was savory, noodles were soft, & the chili sauce gave it a tiny kick with each bite. My husband got the Pad Se Ew. Their vegetables in this dish was bitter and tasted odd. I initially thought he was just being a picky eater, but then I tried one and had to spit it back out and was like whoa something is going on with those veggies. Also got their Mango Sticky Rice for dessert and again, it was okay. Mango wasnt as fresh or tasty. Their thai ice tea was pretty good and creamy, and loved it initially, but got too sweet towards the end. Overall food was okay, but not the best Thai food Ive had. Their prices are a tad less than nearby Thai food restaurants so thats a plus.

2022-05-17Vegetable pad thai,Spring rolls and tom yum soup were good. Tom yum is especially full of flavor, creamy and filling; ive had it at least 4 times and always enjoy it😊
Review №7
2019-05-29Loved all the live plants on the table. The homemade chilli sauce was the perfect balance of sweet, spicy & sour. The lightly battered, perfectly fried calamari had no salt and the batter wasnt seasoned; however the dipping sauce made up for it. My green curry was delicious and the eggplant and melange of vegetables were perfectly cooked in the sauce. My dates pad thai was more on the sweet side but the chilli paste they brought to the table gave it the spice it needed. I would definitely go back.

2018-08-10Visited during the time that the lunch special was in full swing. Reasonably price menu and an atmosphere of quaint and peaceful dining. From the moment you walk though the door the ambiance is welcoming. Food delivery is timely. Fair is well seasoned, tasty. They deliver. Accessible entry (ADA).

2021-01-07Thoroughly satisfied! The menu is minimal and highlights traditional classics making selection easy. Was able to see my order progress and it came exactly between the estimated delivery time. The food still looked great even though it is packed. Sometimes this can lead to food presentation disaster, but we even got the food on plates and made it look like it was served at the restaurant. I have been to Thailand and surrounding countries and everything from Papa Thai was delicious. 100% positive ratings is hard for even a robot, but Thank you for the good experience! 5 stars from me and my friends. (Ordered through GrubHub and got 25% off)

2019-07-06DO NOT EAT HERE unless you want to die or be dissatisfied. Ordered from seamless and took only a couple of bites of my noodles before biting into pure eggshells. The entire dish tainted. When I demanded a refund not ONLY was seamless USELESS (why even go through a third-party site if they cant provide customer service) but the owner only decided to give back about $5 of a $30 meal, WHICH I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE. Trash 👎🏾. Never ordering here again and making sure my friends don’t either.
