Nadia Palon: Pure Thai cookhouse is really worth visiting. Their handmade egg noodles (w/ crab meat) are the best I had this winter. They will change your opinion about thai curry puffs. Also, ice tea!
Agnes Kumala: Order the ribs, curry puff and papaya salad for appetizers. Pork and crab noodle is great and so does the sukhotai noodle. Pad see euw beef is tasty. Close it with mango sticky rice! Nyammm
Peter P: This is the best Thai resto on Ninth Ave. Definitely try the Ratchaburi Noodles with crab and pork. I prefer it with soup, but it's great dry as well. Also, try the Chicken Curry Puffs!

Debbie Kopinski: Pâté is fab, enough for two and love the crab cakes.
Brian Michael: The escargot and crab cake were both amazing! For entrees, both the chicken dishes were juicy and succulent! For dessert, get the chocolate heaven and the frozen cappuccino. You won't regret it!
Danyel Smith: get the crab cakes + sweet potato fries

Booie: The crab dumpling appetizer is amazing
Jason Vincik: Get the whole red snapper and eat the eye! Surprisingly delicious. Also, best crab rangoons here.
What's Good Here: Very authentic Thai dishes at one of the best in NYC. Even the decor transports you and makes you feel like you are in a club on Sukhumvit Road in Bangkok. (they can be forgiven for the crab rangoon.)

Mike Chau: Try the Futomaki - Grilled eel, egg omelet, crab stick and vegetable. This is the best rendition of Futomaki I've ever had.
Toad Mushroom: SOFT SHELL CRAB: actually not sure whether or not they messed up our appetizer order because this dish had no soft shell crab. it was potato, radish and cherry tomato.
Nawal: Crab and shrimp dumpling are amazing

Elizabeth Spaulding: This place has the best most expansive menu of any non sit down restaurant in midtown. Check out the Brie and turkey sandwich!
