Best Brookline Restaurants | Eater Boston
"A rollicking little bar and restaurant, Mahaniyom is home to some of the best Thai food in the Boston area. Don’t miss the kang puu, a subtle crab curry, and the spicy salted pepper pork cheek served with sticky rice. Mahaniyom has racked up many accolades in the two years that it has been open: Eater Boston named it the best new restaurant of 2021, and the restaurant was awarded a five-star review in the Boston Globe in 2022. If you want to extend the evening, the team followed up this act with Merai, located just down the street. It’s a dive bar of sorts that has plenty of Thai drinking foods on the menu (don’t skip the hot dog made with kra pao sausage and salted egg yolk mayo)." - Erika Adams
