Food was ok. Nothing was really amazing, just ok. I would only have a couple of dishes again. The vegetables kept coming repeated and food was too much for a tasting menu. Not a good value for your meal.

Went with a large party and had a tasting menu. As others have said, the chocolate ribs don't make sense. The food in general was okay to disappointing. And I felt like a sucker for paying so much for food that wasn't nearly as good as a cheap thai restaurant. The best items were the salmon tartar appetizer and the flourless choc cake. The cocktails are original, inspired, and delicious! Conclusion: go for drinks or dessert only.

Went to lunch for restaurant week at Kittichai and was blown away. First of all, most places charge $24.07 for lunch during restaurant week, but apparently Kittichai has a $20 brunch menu year round! Very well priced if you ask me. Decor was stellar. The main dining room has a large pond like area in the center which has floating candles and lily pads - soothing and calming. What blew me away the most however, was the creative use of natural light. You could almost imagine yourself in Thailand. Now on to food - For appetizers my friend and I shared crispy shrimp and corn fritters. Both very delicious. The shrimp was fried perfectly with a chili sauce to die for. The corn fritters also came with a creamy dipping sauce that complemented it very well. For entrees, I had the shrimp and scallop skewers with cashew rice. A little bit too lightly seasoned for my taste but then again I'm a gal who loves big bold flavors. It was still very very good however with an infused garlic taste. My friend had the coconut chicken with sauteed veggies which I absolutely loved. There was something about those veggies that I could not stop eating them. Great portions for lunch too! Not too much - just perfect. For dessert, we had flourless chocolate cake. The presentation on this one was stunning. It came wrapped in a banana leaf which our waiter slowly unwrapped for us one by one. It was pretty good but I kinda wished the cake came with a raspberry sauce or something instead of just cream. Tasted good but needed a little oomph. Last but not least, the service was phenomenal. Not overly cloying but very attentive. Our glasses were always filled and food came quickly at the perfect time only 5 minutes after appetizers. Waiter came to ask us how the food was and was very good about us paying with 2 cards and cash. Oh almost forgot - you MUST have the Thai iced coffee. I was blown away by this one. For only $5, you get three cute little flasks filled with Thai coffee, half and half, and liquid sugar. You also get a glass filled with ice and a beautiful flower - that way you can fill it up and make the coffee exactly to your taste. I really liked that concept and thought they gave me a lot of coffee for only $5. Overall, incredible value for a brunch and I would highly recommend this place to anyone. Great to relax in such a beautiful environment with great food and service!

I went to Kittichai for my birthday celebration and found the chocolate baby back ribs disgusting. (it was like eating a brownie with meat stuffed inside) However, my entree meal of lemongrass stuffed chicken was fabulous. the bananan and honey ice cream was ok, but overall I felt the meals were overpriced for such average food. Also the portions weren't that big

Our experience was good at this restaurant. We felt the food tasted very good (Vegetarians - You have a limited choice here). The food presentation was excellent. The atmosphere was lively but not overwhelming (good spacing between tables). This is a pricey restaurant -- which is not a bad thing if this was a fine dining restaurant which it isn't. So we liked the place but felt we were overcharged for the food. On the flip side, the wine bottles markups were lower than I had expected.

We went there on a Thursday and it was packed after 8pm. The ambience was really nice. we thought the appetizers were better than the entrees. I would NOT recommend the chocolate pork. The steak and the duck were good. Service was pretty quick and staffs were attentive. the meal was pretty expensive. I would only go back there for special occasions.

We went here on a weekday and were seated immediately. The decor was amazing and the food was exceptional. Everything we had was delicious, including the appetizer papaya mango salad and the sides (stir-fried rice and the thai omelette). I would highly recommend this place.The Thai food is unlike other places in New york. I'm definitely going back
