Just talked a friend into going there, found it online, and was embarrassed!! Mediocre, tasteless food. Fyi, BYOB policy is each person has to eat $15 worth of food plus corking fee.

Really good food, nice atmosphere, great service, great prices and BYOB. Can't beat it!

I've been to most of the thai places in the east village/LES, and I can't find one that beats Sticky Rice. The best part is clearly the BYO aspect, and I've had many a great celebration dinner here. But the added bonus is that the food is really, really good. While most of the dishes are good to great, Sticky Rice stands head and shoulders above other places with their curries. Unreal. I also love the atmosphere, with the cushioned round booths -- very homey. Service is a little slow, but for BYO AND delicoius food, you can't beat it.

This evening I ordered two dumpling starters, two entrees, one green chicken curry (tasted like old socks) and one Duck panang curry described as: Panang Curry choice of braised duck or jumbo shrimp braised with red curry paste, fresh green peppercorn, fine julienne lime leaf and coconut sauce 15.95. It arrived with two huge pineapple rings, 8 lycees and dozens of cherry tomatoes, no lime leaf or pepper cornsin sight. It was not what I was expecting and I actually thought they had sent a miss order. When i tried to reason with the man at the end of the telephone he said he would re cook it without the fruit, he implied that I had no idea about Thai cooking and that if he put everything on the menu that was in the dishes it would be the size of a book. I told him not to bother and have resigned myself to a $45 mistake. There are far better Thai restaurants in the Lower East Side.

They give a discount with your museum ticket but it's not needed since it's very reasonable with large portions. We had a special duck that was fantastic as was the massaman curry. I found their "mild" to be hotter than other Thai places but still enjoyable even for someone with a wimpy palate like me. Appetizers were a work of art!

worst service. they know nothing about food or hospitality. we actually left during the appetizers after having been asked to move twice b/c they couldn't get their seating situation together. you'd think they'd be embarrassed about that, but they were rude and told US we were being problematic. these people definitely do not know how to run a restaurant.

Not only is the atmosphere very cozy (very hippie chic), the prices are reasonable and the food is GREAT. I highly recommend the Masaman Curry -- and I'm not usually a curry person. Portions are large, and delicious. I just went this weekend for the first time in a while, and discovered that not only are they still BYO, but they have a liquor license now as well! Plus their drinks were unbelievable cheap for the area -- fun mixed drinks (lychee mojitos, margaritas, caipirinhas, etc.) were $6, and my blue moon was $4. Sold.
