I was looking for an easy late lunch spot around 9th Avenue on a Monday when I walked past Pure Thai — honestly, it felt like discovering a hidden gem on 9th Street. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel so welcome and gave amazing recommendations. But even better than the service was the food. Every single dish was incredible. The Larb Ped was hands down the BEST I’ve ever had — no other place even comes close!!! The noodles were so flavorful I didn’t need to add any seasoning at
Happened upon this place while looking for a quick bite during half time of the Knicks game. They were so welcoming and even had the game showing on a projector in the back of the restaurant! It’s a narrow place, so the vibes are cozy and intimate. Prices were great, especially for sake. Not a huge menu, but includes all the solid Thai staples. The vegetable dumplings and mango sticky rice are a must try!
Solid Thai food in Hell's Kitchen. Small restaurant thst can get busy. We made reservations and we're glad we did. Shared all of our dishes starting with papaya salad (good), basil chicken (hard to go wrong here - solid) and Ratchaburi dry noodles with pork and crab (tasty). Service was good and efficient and prices are reasonable.
