"I 've read a lot of bad reviews for this place but that was after I stopped in for dinner. The interior of this place is definitely dated and in need of a renovation. Old diners like this are either cool and retro or not so cool and kind of dirty.This one had a dirty vibe. (The bathroom is gross) The salt and pepper shaker on my table looked like it hadn 't been cleanedsince the 70s. My server was fine, but she was not the friendliest person. She spoke very little ... just took my order anddisappeared for a good half hour. Ironically she was the one that told me the place closes at 7:30 when I walked in at 6:30. Ithought — who cares, I have plenty of time. Little did I know my order wasn 't going to come out for 30 minutes! It felt like Iwas sitting there forever. I finished my water and then asked for a drink when she finally came back 30 minutes later. The dinerwas NOT busy. Maybe 3 other tables had guests. I ordered comfort food — chopped steak with mashed potatoes and corn. It was alarge portion and it was good. The mashed potatoes and gravy had an odd color but everything was tasty. It was the vibe of theplace that put me off. A man came in at one point with the food that he had picked up earlier, screaming about how it wasundercooked. The owner took the food out of the container and handed it back to the cook. I 'm not even sure what it was. It wasjust so off putting, especially NOW after reading so many reviews about that kind of thing. I worried later, about whether Iwould have a stomach ache later and I did not. So overall, my food was very good, the service and atmosphere was odd. Iwouldn 't go back as I would try somewhere else on Austin Street ... and there were tons of places!"

Pretty solid dive bar with Austin St. Popped in the early evening for food and drink and some baseball before a show in Forest Hills. I will.

Clean place, great service, the food was alright, great coffee and the best lemon meringue pie. My mom got a cherry pie that she didn’t like and they exchanged it for her at no additional cost.

Definitely will not be back. The food is not that great. I ordered scrabble eggs, but they were the powder ones. Not delicious at all. The place is not that cozy and the food well you can have a better breakfast at home. View menu

After reading several negative reviews, I decided to give this restaurant a try for dinner. The interior definitely needs a renovation as it has a dated and dirty vibe, especially the bathroom. The salt and pepper shakers on my table looked like they hadn't been cleaned since the 70s. The server was okay, but not very friendly and disappeared for extended periods of time. Despite being told the place closes at 7:30, my order took 30 minutes to come out. The food, a chopped steak with mashed potatoes and corn, was tasty although the mashed potatoes had an odd color. The atmosphere was off-putting, with a customer complaining about undercooked food being returned to the cook. Despite my concer...

This diner is so dirty. I came in right after it just opened in the morning. After I sat down I noticed the floor was filthy as there were gum wrappers and straw papers and little pieces of napkin everywhere. Definitely from the day before or even daysssbefore. The floor had streaks of dirt throughout. I started noticing this minutes after I ordered and felt bad as the nicewaitress had already served us water and set the table. Otherwise I would have left. I went to the bathroom and it smelled likerank urine. I ate my overpriced two egg breakfast special priced at almost 10 bucks which you can get at any other diner for$5-6. The food wasn’t great. The home fries had no flavor and were cold....

"We came, we saw, and we indulged in all-you-can-eat Thai, something I never knew I needed until I was handed an iPad full of options. Now, I can’t imagine settling for just one order of Kung Chae Nampla ever again—*tears over sashimi*. Honestly, for a city and country obsessed with Thai cuisine, you'd think Na Rath would be a staple in New York. Then again, if it were, the $52 per person for a two-hour dining window might not be so special. While some dishes are restricted or limited to one order, about 80% of the menu is open for repeats. Here’s a quick rundown of what we tried: - Wing Zaab: Perfectly crispy and seasoned with spice, fish sauce, rice powder, shallots, and coriander. - Som Tum Tad: Just okay, lacking enough papaya. - Raw Spicy Shrimp: Fresh, spicy, and best of all... unlimited. I still prefer Somtum Der’s, but I won’t lie—I ate at least three plates myself. - Raw Oyster Salad: While it doesn’t beat Chalong Thai’s, it’s still a solid contender. - Crispy Catfish with Mango Salad: Mostly crispy batter and mango, very little fish, but tasty nonetheless. - Tom Yum Kung (Clear): Warm and refreshing, perfect for chilly nights. - Steamed Red Tilapia with Lime and Garlic: Tender and flavorful. - Duck with Kaeng Phed: Rich, hearty, with perfectly cooked meat. - Stir Fried Squid with Egg Yolk: Not my favorite since I’m not an egg yolk fan, but those who love it enjoyed it. - Crab Meat Thai Omelette: Lacked enough crab. - Crab Fried Rice: Fluffy and savory, but didn’t have enough crab. - Kana Moo Grob: Only a couple of pork pieces, though cooked well. - Phak Boong Fai Daeng: Expertly done—perfect balance between tender and crispy for morning glory. - Shrimp Cake: Great batter and shrimp filling. - Crab Roll: Probably the worst dish—barely any crab meat and very little flavor. - Pad See Ew: For those in your group who prefer something simple and familiar, it’s exactly what you expect. - Mango Sticky Rice: Unfortunately terrible; the sticky rice wasn’t thawed properly and was impossible to eat. The mango was juicy and sweet, but without the rice, it felt like just eating fruit on grains. - Taro Custard: A unique mix of starchy cream topped with fried onions—an odd flavor combo that might appeal to some but wasn’t my favorite. Service was solid, and the atmosphere comfortable. Price per person: $50–100 Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 Highly recommended dishes: Chicken Wings and Raw Oyster Salad."
