Thai Villa
4.7 (7,783)restaurant
Rare Thai royal cuisine meets street food classics in an ornate, dark-wood dining room near the Flatiron District.
Description



Beyond the royal specialties like Shrang Wa Goong and Kaeng Hung Ley, the kitchen serves a wide selection of familiar staples, from papaya salad and vegetable dumplings to Thai basil fried rice and red curry. The dining room features dim lighting and ornate fixtures, creating an intimate backdrop for service that diners describe as welcoming and fast-paced. Portions are generous, though spice levels can vary; some visitors note that dishes like the beef pad ped can skew milder than expected.
