The food was very very good. We had the papaya salad and it was ok. Had the short rib and green curry with crispy duck. Both were excellent. Not the best Thai I’ve had, but worth a 5. The service was fine. Server was very soft spoken,...

Mitr Thai does an excellent job in giving a culinary regional overview of Thai cuisine. You don’t find many of their offerings in typical Thai establishments in the city. The food is nuanced and complex. It’s best to share a couple of dishe...

My second time at this location it’s a perfect spot for lunch. The food is delicious, the service is fast, and Popeye was very kind and welcoming. It’s one of my favorite places in Midtown to stop by.

Not too sweet. Very good.

The ambience was excellent and very welcoming. Since we didn’t have a reservation, we called around 9:30 PM on a Friday evening, and they graciously accommodated us despite the restaurant being completely packed. We ordered the Hot Pot Tom...
Strict table time limits
Guests frequently mention a strict 90-minute or 75-minute dining limit, with some feeling rushed to finish and turn over the table.

Two of us went for dinner and had made a reservation a few days in advance. We were seated right away, and the hostess informed us that there is a 90-minute time limit for the table. That seemed perfectly reasonable. Our server greeted us...

Food was good but service made us feel rushed to order, eat, then leave so they could turn over the table.
Reservation and front desk friction
Reviewers report occasional rude behavior from front desk staff and inflexible reservation policies regarding party size and late arrivals.

Utterly incompetent and embarrassingly badly managed. I made a reservation for 2 people and clearly included a note that we would be arriving with a baby and pram. When we arrived, we were told to wait 35–40 minutes because I had not booke...

This is review is for the reservation process & the hostesses in the front. I made reservations for 4 people. Three of us were there we were told we weren’t going to be seated until our entire party was present which we understood, however...

The lady working at the front was extremely aggressive about our seating arrangement. We never argued about having a full party or anything but she was condescending for no reason. Pretty odd given we told her we can wait a few minutes.
Good for
- Pre-theater dinner before a Broadway show
- Sharing multiple regional Thai dishes with a group
- Dinners seeking knowledgeable staff and menu guidance
Avoid if
- You prefer a quiet, spacious, and unhurried dining atmosphere
- You dislike strict time limits or rigid reservation policies
- You are sensitive to loud music and closely packed seating
