Wow, what a great experience! My friend and I decided to try this place for the first time, and I have to say, it's now one of my favorite spots. We ordered the Pad Thai with fried tofu, Uncle Plump's Dumplings, and the Shrimp Curry Laksa. Every single dish was packed with flavor, and the portions were just right. The Pad Thai had the perfect balance of tangy and sweet, with the tofu cooked to perfection. Uncle Plump's Dumplings were a delightful surprise--soft, juicy, and bursting with savory goodness. The Shrimp Curry Laksa was a standout, too--rich, creamy, and just the right amount of spice.
What really impressed me was how fast everything came out. We barely had time to chat before the food arrived. The service was quick, and the staff was friendly, making us feel right at home. I can already tell this place is going to be a regular go-to for me. Highly recommend!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Sep 9, 2024
SERVICE
- located in east village
- indoor and outdoor seating
- servers are friendly! The one we got told us about how he named the place after his own mom and that we should respect our mothers
- food served on paper plates
- no water given unless requested
MENU
- Malaysian, Vietnamese, and Thai dishes
- vegan options available
- average price
FOOD
- mango tofu (7/10): tofu and mixed vegetables stir fried with mango in a sweet and sour sauce. This dish was originally made with shrimp but the server told us we could do it vegan. I liked the contrast between the spicy sauce and the sweet mango. There was a good amount and variety of vegetables. I would recommend ordering it with a side of rice.
- vegan laksa (9/10): spicy coconut noodle soup with tofu and vegetables. This dish screams comfort food. The broth is thick and full of warming spices with just the right hit of chili. There is a good amount of tofu, though I felt it was over fried and did not absorb the flavors of the broth.
WOULD I GO BACK? I have promised the owner that I would see him again so I am obligated to go back.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 8524234104Aug 19, 20241 check-in
If you go into this restaurant craving deliciously authentic Southeast Asian food, you won't be disappointed!! I ordered Roti Canai and Mee Goreng with chicken, and they were top tier!! The service is also super quick and very friendly.
One thing to keep in mind - this is a VERY casual restaurant. Our food was served on plastic plates and there was no air conditioning in August - only a few fans, so we were still dripping sweat during our meal hoping to escape the heat lolHelpful 8Thanks 1Love this 2Oh no 1 - Emily X.New York, NYSep 6, 20241 check-in
No frills place. Decent prices. Friendly server. Large plates of delicious food that has the wok hay flavor. Seems like a good late night place.
Pad See Ew with Chicken: the chicken was very juicy and flavorful, not what I was expecting! Large amount of noodles. Good flavor.
Beef w Coconut Rice: the coconut rice was delicious and you could actually taste the coconut, the beef had a kick to itHelpful 2Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Sep 4, 2024
"Average Thai + SE Asian"
I've been here a number of times and while the food is good, not sure it is great. Maybe I'm the best dishes are the ones I don't order
The Best
- wide selection
- the mee goreng and the lemongrass chicken are the best
- Prices are reasonable
The Rest
- Service is just ok
- Decor is very basic
- Some dishes are a little greasy
Its certainly a place you wont go wrong but there are others places in the neighborhood you can go much more rightHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Benita P.Brooklyn, NY967791Sep 10, 2024Updated review
Dissapointed to have walked to this restaurant only to get this rip off and an overfried spring roll as the lunch special, which was $1 less than the dinner portion. Will admit that the food was good though.
