"On New Year’s Eve, sister restaurant Kiin offers a five-course tasting menu that spotlights signature dishes such as Tom Yum Oyster, Lobster Tom Yum, Boombai Short Rib and Khao Yum Rainbow Rice Salad." - Julia Eskins
"This isn't your typical Thai restaurant. Its colorful and eclectic interiors offer a high-end, luxe experience that feels truly transporting. It's telling that the only pad thai on the menu here is the whole Prince Edward Island lobster pad thai (market price), a decadent far cry from the pad thai takeout you order at home. The food here isn't the kind you slurp down in a hurry. It's the kind of food for which you slow down in order to savor. Go for the seven-course Tasting Menu if you can. At $150 per person, it's steep, but it covers the menu's most notable dishes. The bar leans into Thai ingredients like tamarind, panda, and kaffir limes. Try the Krung Thep, made with powerful Thai coffee, Thai basil-infused rye whiskey, amaro, chocolate bitters, and orange peel. There's also a robust list of wines by the glass and by the bottle, as well as a sake menu, and a good selection of Thai teas." - Todd Plummer
"Chef Nuit Regular impresses with her elaborate, one-of-a-kind vision of royal Thai cuisine. The elegant space is a prime setting for equally elegant dishes, which are presented with flair. Colorful mounds of rice, pineapple and dumplings shaped like flowers, and so much more arrive in petite forms in small bowls and on large platters. The dishes themselves will ring familiar, from Isan-style sausage and larb, to hot and sour beef soup and the famed khao soi, all of it seasoned and spiced in a measured manner. The tender Boombai short rib glossed in a dark curry is a particular standout. First-timers should start with the signature chef’s tasting, which nearly covers the entire menu alongside a few bonus dishes." - Michelin Inspector
