This was such a wonderful dining experience! The restaurant itself is so charming -- we enjoyed sitting outside on the patio. The waitress was also incredibly friendly and helpful.We enjoyed the variety of gluten-free, vegan dishes Plue had to offer. All of them were flavorful, delicious, and authentic! Especially unique was the vegan pad krapow, which is one of the most special Thai dishes Ive had at a restaurant. I hope this special of theirs is here to stay!This was overall an incredible dining experience, and I highly recommend Plue.

We loved the authentic Thai cuisine here! The Steak Khao Soi Curry Noodle was my favorite dish and the seasonal Braised Pork Riblets and Beetroot Dumplings are a must-try!

I recently dined at Plue Thai Restaurant, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience. The food was absolutely delicious, every dish was flavorful and authentic, making it one of the best Thai meals Ive had in a long time. The service was equally impressive; the staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend Plue to anyone looking for a fantastic Thai dining experience!

Best thai restaurant for me in NYC! Hidden gem in the upper east side! The food is better than the food I ate in Thailand!Location: It is located along Lexington Ave! The interior is quite small but very nice bar where you can wait for you to be seated.Service: omg this guys are awesome! They gave us free thai tea while waiting! We are well taken care of. And they gave us good recommendations!Food: Everything was good! Like for real all the food was on point!CHIVE CAKE: crispy on the outside and soft inside, the sauce compliments the cake! Perfect appetizer.WINGS: crispy fried chicken wings! They tossed it in garlic sesame soy sauce! So good!PAD SEE EW: so the noodles here is what I like! I felt like they just made it. It was soft and chewy at the same time. The seasoning is perfect.PAPAYA SALAD: so good, very refreshing and again the seasoning is perfect.CHILI GARLIC CRISPY PORK BELLY: omg this is soo good and umami! The pork is so crispy even the skin! The meat was soft and flavorful. the rice and egg was cooked perfectly. The egg is dripping on the rice.THAI ICED TEA: so milky and sweet! Wish they have boba hahahaHOMEMADE LIMEADE with BASIL SEEDS: so refreshing and good! You have to order this!Price rating: 7/10. It was not bad, worth every penny!I will definitely come back here and try their other food. Best thai place!!

From the moment you step into the doors of this Thai restaurant, you are transported to the streets of Bangkok with the tantalizing aromas and vibrant atmosphere. The menu is a culinary journey through Thailand, offering a wide array of dishes that are bursting with authentic flavors and fresh ingredients.I highly recommend starting with the Tom Yum soup, a spicy and sour broth that is truly a taste sensation. For mains, the Thai Fried Rice is a must-try, with perfectly balance of flavours, succulent shrimp, and a delicious balance of crispy and savory flavors. If youre a fan of something sour, the papaya salad with string beans and crisp vegetables and tomatoes will not disappoint. We even got a Braised Beef Brisket ( came with rice) which did not disappoint.The service is impeccable, with attentive staff who are happy to provide recommendations and ensure your dining experience is nothing short of exceptional. Whether youre a longtime fan of Thai cuisine or looking to explore new flavors, this restaurant is a gem that should not be missed. This restaurant reminded of my visit back in Bangkok.

We found this hole in the wall through Apple Maps, “Healthy Food nearby.” We were in for a treat! Authentic, fresh, savory. A must visit in the UES! The decor on the wall brought us to Thailand mixed with music for the holidays. Date Night - Success! ✅

Great Food but room for improvement in ServiceMy partner and I visited this restaurant for the second time, eager to relive the exceptional dining experience we enjoyed during our first visit. The food is, without a doubt, outstanding – fresh ingredients, beautifully presented dishes. This place has some of the best food weve had in the area.However, our second visit didn’t quite match the first. We arrived a bit close to closing time, fully understanding that it would require us to order quickly and dine efficiently. The staff kindly seated us and informed us of the 10 PM closing time, and we had no issues with making quick choices and dining at a faster pace to respect the restaurants hours.Where we felt let down was during the payment process. After a rushed dining experience, our waiter encouraged us to tip a suggested amount and watched intently as we completed the transaction. When we opted for a different amount, he politely questioned our choice, which left us feeling a bit uncomfortable and pressured. Tipping, for us, is a reflection of the service, and while we are always happy to acknowledge great service with a generous tip (as we did on our first visit), we felt that this time it didnt align with the experience.All in all, we are grateful for the memorable meals this restaurant has provided, and we would return for the food alone. Our hope is that future visits feel as welcoming and relaxed as the first.

Plue Thai is an absolute gem! From the moment we stepped inside, we were greeted by a charming ambiance, highlighted by a beautifully decorated wall of elephants that instantly transported us to Thailand. We visited on a chilly, winter weekday, and it was pretty quiet inside, but we didnt mind at all!As we perused the menu, we were intrigued by their seasonal winter offerings and decided to try the oxtail pho. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint! The oxtail was incredibly tender, practically melting in my mouth, and the broth was bursting with flavor. It was the perfect dish to warm me up on a chilly day, and the addition of gluten-free rice noodles made it even more enjoyable for me, as someone with gluten sensitivities.My sister opted for the chicken fried rice, which was equally impressive. Packed with flavor and just the right amount of heat, it was a comforting and satisfying choice. For appetizers, we couldnt resist the steamed dumplings, filled with a delicious blend of chicken, shrimp, and veggies. The accompanying sauce was a delightful complement to the dumplings, adding an extra layer of flavor.One aspect that truly stood out was the attentive and friendly service. In an age where good service can be hard to come by, we were impressed by the staffs warm hospitality and attentiveness throughout our meal. It truly enhanced our overall dining experience and made us feel welcome and valued as guests.To top it all off, they offer a fantastic selection of non-alcoholic beverages, including the lychee Earl Gray iced tea, which was a refreshing and delightful choice. I hear their Thai iced tea is amazing, but unfortunately I am lactose intolerant, so I had to pass on it!And lets not forget about the takeout experience! I ordered the Chili Garlic Crispy Pork Belly for my husband, and he absolutely loved it. He devoured every last bite, and said it had the perfect amount of heat. I stole a bite of the pork and it was so good, even after sitting in my car ride to the airport for over 40 minutes!!Overall, our experience at Plue Thai was nothing short of fantastic. With its delicious food, welcoming ambiance, exceptional service, and mouthwatering takeout options, its a restaurant that well be returning to again.They offer tons of vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options! Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic and flavorful Thai cuisine in the area!

This charming Thai spot serves up a mix of classic dishes and modern twists in a welcoming setting with friendly service. We tried the Salted Egg Cream Sauce Pasta, Brussels Sprouts with Crispy Pork, and Garlic Black Pepper Squid. Each dish was flavorful, well-balanced, and had a comforting, home-cooked feel - focused on taste rather than elaborate presentation. The Salted Egg Pasta was especially memorable, with its rich, cheesy, and salty egg flavors.Overall, a fantastic Thai spot that offers unique takes on classics in a lovely setting, all at a great price.

Entering Plue we were made aware that a large party would be coming in over an hour from our arrival time which was strange. We were seated where we wanted but definitely felt rushed to order due to the large party which was mentioned to us earlier. The food came out fairly quickly and tasted okay. There was nothing really to write home about with the food. Flavors were like any other thai place I have been too maybe even less. Gyoza was okay, rice was okay, fried chicken chunks were okay. Would I eat here again? Probably. Would it be my first choice? Probably not.

I love Thai food and couldnt wait to try this restaurant! When I arrived I parked right in front. I walked into this small, cute restaurant. I was greeted by the server Ara and the manager Kim, and they were so nice! I started with a glass of Pinot nior, which was good. I then had the Tom Khlong, and that was spicy and good. The winter salad was also tasty. For my meal, I got the Crab Fried Rice and the Spicy Thai Basil Minced Chicken, which were tasty. I really liked the crab fried rice the most! For dessert I had the molten lava cake made in house and tyat was delicious! I had a really good experience all in all and would return!

Lovely local Thai restaurant with delicious food. They have some vegan options. My favourite Thai dish Pad See Ew can be made vegan by taking away the eggs too. They give a lot of tofu in the dish, unlike some other restaurants only 3-5 pieces! They have vegan Thai ice tea with coconut milk.

Went for dinner with a few friends (one who is gluten intolerant and one who is a vegetarian) and was blown away!

Plus is an incredible restaurant worth a visit. It has a very good menu and the offerings are quite decent. They are in close competition with Chu Ros right across the street, however they manage to hold an incredible amount of flavor. Both are incredible and you won’t be disappointed with either.

TLDR: Do yourself a favor and come here ASAP.I made a reservation here yesterday for my partner and I, after discovering the restaurant randomly, and I will never regret that decision. I knew I had to write my first review EVER because I will be coming back many, many times.The food was fabulous. Ive never eaten Thai, and everything was delicious, fresh, and came at a reasonable time. We started with two Yuzu cocktails, which were super yummy and came in these gorgeous glasses. Honestly, I would come back just for drinks! The attention to detail in the silverware, dishes, and restaurant decoration was very impressive.Anyway, the drinks were great, and we shared an order of shrimp pancakes. They were so crispy and delicious and every bite was just as good as the last. We both had a steak salad with a chili lime vinaigrette, and it was the highlight of the dinner. The steak was cooked perfectly, the greens and vegetables were fresh and delicious, and this VINAIGRETTE! I had no words for it. The portion sizes were a little large, so we took half our salads home (the server packed them up for us!) and ate them for breakfast just now. It was just as good the morning after.For dessert, we each had an order of mango sticky rice. I have had this dish before elsewhere, so I was already excited, but this restaurant blew my expectations out of the water. Everything was the perfect temperature and the rice had these other grains mixed in that made the texture delectable; it was the most flawless dessert we could have ordered after our meal. Maybe that was the real highlight.Making the reservation only took a 30-second phone call, and there was even a little candle on our table when we came. Our server was so helpful and attentive, taking our dishes away promptly and making great suggestions. We arrived at 5, and it was not busy at all, which surprised me because the quality was so exemplary. In all, our 1.5 hr dinner came out to ~$100 dollars, without tip. A pricy dinner, perhaps, but I believe the quality is deserving of that value.

Come in for a delicious Thai meal! The large windows and light color walls give you a sense of relaxation and comfort. The food is superb! The calamari were crunchy and not extremely chewy, pairing well with the sauce. The braised beef was soft and tender, easily melting in the mouth. The salad and soup are flavorful, with just the right amount of herbs and spices. The dishes can be shared amongst others, which I recommend doing so you can try a bit of everything!

Experience the taste of Thailand in Plue, Uptown Manhattan!Chef Kim Chaimongkolchai’s culinary journey blends tradition with a modern twist.Named after the native vining plant, Plue offers a unique dining experience, radiating the warmth of Traditional Thai dishes.The appetizer selection was a delightful start, showcasing the rich variety of flavors.Must try for the appetizer is Curry Fish cake and Crispy shrimp Pancake. They were so delicious. The mouthwatering whole fish with the special sauce was a true highlight. The sauce is spicy but it was the perfect balance of spice and flavor. Pair it with the delectable Crab Fried rice will leave you craving for more. The hanger steak with the Northern style curry noodle is also so yummy. The steak was so tender . For the vegan lovers, dont miss out on the exquisite coco cream caramel dessert . It is a perfect ending to the meal.Plue Thai is a unique spot, combining fresh, local ingredients with Thai Flavors. A must-visit for those craving authentic and contemporary Thai cuisine.

To those whove yet to dine at Plue, youre truly missing out. Whether youre a local or just passing through, do yourself a favor, stop in for a meal and get your mind blown. You wont regret it.Standards are high in NYC, so its not often that you come across a restaurant where every aspect is a perfect 10/10. Plue has truly mastered this feat. The attention to detail is evident in everything from the decor to the dishes, making it the best dining experience my wife and I had in New York City in a long time.The assortment of appetizers we tried was sublime, leaving us hard-pressed to pick a favorite. A standout for me were the steamed dumplings – a powerhouse of well balanced flavor and craftsmanship. Complementing our meal, the Sauvignon Blanc my wife enjoyed was perfectly paired, enhancing the culinary experience to a level beyond our expectations.Service at Plue was impeccable. Our waiter was so attentive ensuring our plates were cleared promptly and our dishes arrived without delay. The experience made us regret not discovering Plue sooner, but it also cemented its place as our new weekly date night destination.The ambiance struck a perfect balance between elegance and coziness, with every detail, from the lighting to the mural and color palette, coalescing into a cohesive vision. Its rare to find a place in NYC that delivers such exceptional value without compromising on quality or presentation. Plue stands as a stark contrast to the overpriced, underwhelming offerings found all throughout the city.

The food is amazing, and this restaurant has been my favorite Thai spot in my area for years. However, lately their customer service is unbelievably horrible. I would advise to not order online, since the deliveries are always late and the food arrives cold. Delivery time is exceptionally high (for reference I live about 5 blocks away) and they never answer the phone when you call to check on the status of your order. It seems like everything went downhill for this restaurant after they changed their name.

Everything about this place is calming and great!Let’s start with the food:the steak served here tastes better than some steakhouses (hot take)We also got the pork drunken noodles which were super solid. The wok hey flavor was there and the sauce was very nicely balanced. The pork slices were more on the fatty side but that’s a good thing in this case.The ambiance here was amazing. It makes for the perfect date night spot. It’s cozy but not cramped. The open air during the summer paired with ac and fan make a super pleasant environment. On top of the ambiance the staff is also very nice!Would highly recommend (:

Craving Thai, looked up this spot and ordered ahead. When I rolled up, I saw the avocado summer roll and asked to add it. While I waited I had a lovely conversation with the owner about the restaurant, his vision, my experience with vegan inspired Thai food and more. Just a wonderful conversation and vibe to the place. My food was cooked quickly too and I took it home to enjoy. The avocado summer roll was fantastic, light and fresh, with a bold, creamy peanut sauce. The chicken pad Thai was equally good and not dry, but still wet and tangy. Ill be coming back soon!

I stumbled upon this place after it was featured on the neighborhood instagram page and was so glad that I came. The restaurant is Asian fusion in the best way to showcase delicious flavors with seasonal ingredients. I ended up sharing 2 seasonal dishes (salted egg cream sauce pasta and oyster mushroom tempura) and a regular menu item Butcher’s steak. Each bite kept me coming back for more. The portions were generous. I also shared a Thai iced tea with coconut milk, lemongrass cocktail and the crème caramel for dessert. The chef was very friendly and shared they will continue having seasonal menus. I will definitely be coming back for more!

Plue Thai Kitchen is the quintessential neighborhood spot! Legitimately every single bite I had was incredible. The Steak Khao Soi Curry Noodle was one of the best Thai dishes I’ve had in a restaurant ever, and it was also extremely affordable (especially considering the great quality and very generous portion size). The staff are so down to earth and make you want to eat at this restaurant every week. I highly recommend this place, and they just gained another regular!!

Had the most amazing dinner! The ingredients were all super fresh and the dishes were big portions with tonnes of flavor. Perfect for sharing! Cant wait to come back and try even more! Love that I can bring my gluten free and vegan friends because all of the main entrées can be made gluten-free or vegan!

This is coming from a Thai guy. I know what Im reviewing.Foods are tasty, genuine yet some modern twist on some of the dishes. Service is excellent. Truly remarkable experience!My dish of the day is the crab fried rice, if I to close my eyes, it just transport me back home! The rests are closed second.

Plue is absolutely a lovely spot. I came during marathon Sunday for lunch and understandably, it was not crowded. Very relaxed and soothing atmosphere. The staff was very welcoming, kind, and attentive. I got the Butchers steak, served with garlic rice, a soft boiled egg, and cherry tomatoes with a Thai iced tea on the side. The food was delicious and portions were great for the price. I wasnt able to finish the meal, but at least I took the leftovers to go for dinner. Someone next to me ordered the beef panang curry and it smelled so good. Looking forward to trying that next time!

Date night ! We loved the ambiance in this space, the service was excellent, and food was delicious. Prices are also very reasonable.

Review №128

I had really high hopes for this place. The menu looks sophisticated and modern.Unfortunately, my $26 short rib meal came out and the meat was so rubbery I couldnt even cut it with a knife. You could tell it wasnt fresh and was heated in the microwave. After asking, I discovered its because the meal was cooked the day prior.Daily specials make your customer base think they are buying something very fresh and very special. It is unethical to serve your guests nearly $30 leftover food.I will give the staff credit, they immediately made me a new dish. The vegetable pad thai was made fresh and was flavorful. However, the owner clearly needs to work on ensuring standards dont slip in the kitchen.

Review №129

This restaurant has never failed me. They recently rebranded as Plue thai and the food is still as great as before with a dash of classiness alongside the taste of the previous menu all at the same very affordable prices. Definitely an amazing date spot. They also seemed to up the portions and i even tried their Plue specialty menu for their newer dishes and had their new chili pork belly dish with a soft boiled egg over rice and the balance of flavors was really astounding. The way the yolk, rice and pork balanced was really amazing and the spice of the chili wasn’t overwhelming at all like some other places have it but balanced the flavors even better.One of my favorite new eat-out spots in a long time.

The flavors are amazing, and I keep coming back! The drunken noodles and papaya salad are some of my favorite, but tonight decided to try some new things. Got the tom yum soup, pad Thai, and green curry. All were fresh, delicious and super flavorful. We will keep coming back here for sure!!

The vibe is beautiful as soon as you walk in! It was so comfy and cozy. The service impeccable. We came at happy hour and purchased the popcorn chicken, herb fries and edamame. Great starters —all of them, and at a discounted price. We also got the Vegan Thai Iced Tea - made with coconut milk! It was so yummy. The entrees were delicious! We got the Crab Thai Fried Rice and Chicken Massaman! They were equally so, so delicious! Amazing spot. Highly recommend. They also have an amazing homemade coconut 🍨 ice cream!

Review №144

Was in the neighborhood and decided to try a new business. Very glad I did!Upon walking in, found out they have a lunch menu. That’s usually the way to go since you get to try different foods for a better value. I got a soup and an entree for less than 20$ (including tax and tip). Can pick between multiple soups and appetizers and the Thai classics as entrees.The soup was great on a rainy day. Warmed me right up. Rich in flavor and good sized portion. For my entree I had the drunken noodles with beef, 4/5 spice level. Great flavor and right amount of spice for my liking.They have some great patio / outdoor seating. Inside looked cute and quaint as well.They apparently have some great cocktails, beer and wine. I believe their specialty is around the infused soju drinks. On the list to try for next time. Liquor license coming soon.Service is always important when eating or drinking somewhere. Every person I interacted with had a smile on their face and was friendly. The owner / chef even came out to see how things were and if I needed anything. Those small gestures go a long way.

I called yesterday to check if they had restaurant week offers in store. They are listed on the website and the person who answered the phone said the promotion is running. I ended up making a reservation for two. We spent 2 hours traveling there and got turned away at the door with the server saying “Restaurant week offers start next week”. If that’s the case, why is this restaurant listed there starting this week, and furthermore, why would the person answering the phone tell me they have it when they don’t? Wasted 4 hours traveling for nothing yesterday, not fun.

Food tastes good, but over time, this restaurant has gotten cheaper and stingier with the portions at the same prices.Advertises the chicken as wings or tenders, but it’s neither. When it waswings, the wings practically became nubs. And it’s not tenders, it’s just cut up pieces of chicken. Insulting to the clientele. There are plenty of other delicious Thai places you can enjoy. I’m done with place.

I am in love with Pro Thai. I always order delivery or pick-up from them because I live 15m walking from them, I am really no fan of eating with takeout food because I rather cook at home, but their Red Curry with chicken is just sooooooo good that I have to have it at least once per week (I can easily eat it daily).I always order from their lunch combo which is super cheap! 9.99 if I am not wrong but I can pick two appetizers plus the main dish (In my case red curry) so I always get the soup and the steamed dumplings and omg I love everything so much! And it is incredible the amount of food I end up with for that price than usually I end up saving some for the next day or dinner!Pro Thai is definitely awesome, i just personally need to try something else because I had only literally.order from them like 20 red curries but I had never try other thing, I would need to check some recommendations of what to try next.Oh, I almost forgot to say: THEY DELIVERY IS INCREDIBLE INCREDIBLE FAST. Today I literally got my food at my door 15m after I place it, and I leave 15m walking from them, besides than the delivery guy probably flied to get to my apartment it was still incredible fastThank you for all the joy you guys at Pro Thai give me, from the food to also the friendly girl that gives me my food when I pick it up! Keep up the good work!
