Soothr LIC

Soothr's Long Island City outpost carries the East Village original's reputation for regionally rooted Thai cooking into Queens, and by most accounts it has settled quickly into the role of neighborhood anchor rather than hype destination. The room is described as dramatic and dimly lit — the kind of atmospheric space that gives Thai cooking a sense of occasion it doesn't always receive in New York — and the kitchen is known for not dialing back the bold, layered flavors that define Thai regional traditions. That combination of serious cooking and a considered dining room has made Soothr a recurring reference point for Thai in the borough. The menu centers on dishes that reward attention. The khao soi is consistently the one diners and writers point to first — a northern Thai curry-broth noodle dish that, when done right, balances richness with aromatic complexity and contrasting textures; Soothr's version is widely reported to honor the classic rather than soften it for a broader audience. The grilled meats are noted for confident seasoning and char, the papaya salad is said to be adjustable to your actual heat tolerance (a detail worth flagging when you order), and the crispy-rice salad has developed a following among regulars who order broadly and share across the table. Practically speaking, Soothr fits multiple occasions: a date-night room where the setting does real work, and a mid-range table where a group can eat ambitiously without significant damage to the bill. Weekend evenings draw a crowd, so a reservation is the sensible move. Come with a group if you can, order the khao soi and at least one grilled plate, and be direct about your heat preference — the kitchen, by all reports, will meet you there.

Glin Thai Bistro

Fort Greene has quietly become one of Brooklyn's best Thai corridors, and Glin Thai Bistro, on Myrtle between Washington Park and Carlton, makes the case loudly. Chef-owner Sunny took over the old Ace Thai space and turned it into something far more deliberate — a flower-draped storefront opening onto a plant-filled room where every table gets fresh blooms and the window seats are upholstered in plush velvet. It earned a Michelin Guide nod in 2025, and the cooking, drawn from both northern and southern Thailand, backs it up. Start with the gui chai, crispy golden chive pancakes that walk the sweet-savory line. The kra pow nuer is the table anchor: short ribs braised 24 hours until the crust caramelizes and the meat gives way to a fork. Get the fried rice studded with crabmeat and egg, lifted by cilantro chili lime sauce, and the crab curry, which is genuinely packed with real crab — order rice alongside. At $$ prices, it's a smart group room. Note it's currently lunch-and-dinner weekdays, so plan accordingly.
