Hey Thai

1. The place was decorated very nicely. The owner definitely put a lot of thoughts into it. There are five booths that are super comfortable and spacious: it is however reserved for reservations first and then open to walk ins first come first serve.2. The food is great. The staff will explain the menu if you ask and they have another seasonal menu with new dishes. I like spicy dishes and their spices won't disappoint.3. Overall very good service. All the staff were very polite and friendly (which is something that I take very big consideration in when it comes to will I visit again?)

Great Thai Food at Affordable Prices!Hey Thai, located at 127 John Street in the heart of the Financial District, is a hidden gem for Thai food lovers. My wife and I stopped by for an early dinner, and we were thoroughly impressed with the flavors and quality of the food--all at very reasonable prices.We ordered the vegetable soup, which was light and comforting, the garlic shrimp, which was perfectly cooked and packed with flavor, the basil fried rice with duck, which had a great balance of spice and savoriness, and the drunken noodles with chicken, which were rich, spicy, and incredibly satisfying. Every dish was fresh, well-seasoned, and cooked to perfection.The restaurant has a relaxed atmosphere, quick service, and generous portions, making it a great spot for lunch or dinner in Lower Manhattan. Overall, we rate Hey Thai a solid 4 out of 5 and will definitely be back to try more dishes. If you're in the area and craving good Thai food at an affordable price, this is the place to go!

Stumbled across this restaurant after I saw how lackluster the Winter event at the Watermark was and I was happily surprised. Drooping flowers everywhere gives it a feminine touch. It's nice to enter a space that takes you out of the concrete jungle. Now, for the food. Everything was delicious. Generally, I don't think you can go wrong with Thai but I'm happy this spot held that message to be true. Everything was fresh and came out quickly. Hosts/waiter came around with a smile and took our orders. He didn't speak English too well, but it didn't really matter since it was easy to point at the menu. Amd I don't know if it's because I was going to a specialty event at the Watermark, but I just thought it was so affordable for the area.

In a mood for some warm Thai food during this cold winter, so my friend and I stumbled across this quaint little place. The interior was decorated so nicely with a lot of flowers and a bunch of Christmas decorations. It wasn't too big of a place but they were still able to have a lot of seating. We were seated immediately and handed menus.Pad See Ew with beef (4/5): It's hard to go wrong with Pad See Ew and this one was really good! It had a lot of beef parts and was the perfect amount of sweet and savory you would expect from a good Pad See Ew.Chicken Khao Soi (5/5): The star of the show!! All the flavors were perfect and it was the perfect amount of spicy (as someone with low spice tolerance). The soup was delicious and warm. They had plentiful amount of chicken bits and I lovedd the noodles that were used!I would definitely come back, especially for the Chicken Khao Soi and the cute ambience of the restaurant!

What a cute Thai restaurant! The decor was very bright, pretty and floral. We were sat promptly and we immediately ordered cocktails and the Hey Thai platter appetizer. The platter was great! I loved being able to try the coconut shrimp, the chicken satay, the chive pancake, the shrimp dumplings, spring roll and golden bag. Soooo tasty. I decided to order the Panama curry with shrimp. My cousin got the seafood pineapple curry! It was huge and so delicious!! We definitely had leftovers. The service was great and attentive. I'm definitely glad we chose to come here. I'd go back next time I'm in NYC.

I came by with a friend for a quick weekday dinner; we got here around 6pm and got seated immediately.I ordered the pad see ew with chicken, which was delicious. The chicken was tender, noodles chewy and flavourful, and overall the dish was just exactly how I like my pad see ew. The portion size was pretty big (I ended up packing up roughly a third of it).My friend ordered the basil entrée (?) with tofu and chicken, which was also really tasty. Basil flavour definitely came out, not too spicy, and the tofu was surprisingly well cooked (not dry or too hard).Price point was quite good, too - for sure better than what I expect from this neighbourhood haha. I'd definitely come back!

Came here on a Sunday and most of the booths were filled. I loveeee the ambiance and decor of the restaurant - I caught myself admiring the ceiling and interior a few times!We ordered a Hey Thai Platter, Chicken Pad Thai, and Chicken Drunken Noodle. The Hey Thai Platter was very fresh and came out piping hot. Everything was tasty however, I wasn't a huge fan of the texture of the Golden Bags - it was a bit too mushy for my liking, but flavor was decent.The Chicken Pad Thai was on point flavor-wise. However, I wish it was a tad bit wetter. It got kinda dry after eating it for a while. The Drunken Noodle was definitely saucier and more flavorful, but I've personally never really liked the taste of the dish so I can't give a fair rating. It was spicy though so if you're into that, you might like it.The service here was great, everyone was friendly and food came out at a good speed. They kept refilling our water and came over to ask if everything's okay a few times. Not the best or cheapest Thai food that I've had, but I would be down to come back to try their lunch special if I'm in the area!

Hey Thai is a beautiful establishment located in a beautiful part of NYC matching the vibe and aesthetic of the vibrant city atmosphere.Beautiful indoor decor and style, with spacious seating and high ceilings. The venue overall is clean and bright! The Chicken Pad Thai was good, as well as the Crag Rangoon! The menu is full of options with many things to try, and I decided to try something new. The name is escaping me (pictures below), the violet/blue colored dish was sent back. It wasn't good and the texture wasn't for me. The cocktails were delicious! The end of my visit was rushed as they closed 10 minutes before their scheduled time of close. I was the only individual in the restaurant and I guess there was an assumption that I was almost done. It wasn't a good feeling.I would return a little earlier in the day to experience the lunch menu, neighborhood and some different food items.

Blown away by the decor as soon as you walk in! The restaurant is stunning and perfect for pictures. They offer a really great lunch special during the weekdays. My friend and I got the pad sew ew and the pad thai and they were both delicious. Would definitely recommend if you're in the Fidi area looking to grab lunch.

The service was very good and the waiter was very attentive. The ambiance is so nice and their decor was super pretty for pictures. On top of that the food was great and they had a lunch special.
