I loved the food, especially the durian crab curry and the appetizers. The yom yum soup was a little salty. The waiter was very friendly. It was the second day after opening, and they still did a great job, with only minor nits. The 70s decoration is kinda unique, and fine tastefully. The music was too loud for conversation though.

The best authentic Thai food, makes me want to go to Thailand!! The waiters were all so nice and the food was delicious, we’ll definitely be back!

Had the best time at LenLen! The retro vibe makes it a fun and welcoming place to hang out, and the staff is fantastic. The cocktails were delicious, and the food was outstanding, the crab was rich and full of flavor, and the wings were perfectly crispy. Definitely adding this to my list of go-to spots.

Everything was delicious. The pad Thai and fried fish were incredible! Definitely will be coming back.

Incredible spot for authentic Thai cuisine. The dishes are bursting with flavors, beautifully prepared, and served in generous portions. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Everything from the food to the service was perfect.

Amazing authentic Thai. The Thai tea cocktail was out of this world. High quality ingredients and tasted amazing.

From the food to the staff and the location, LenLen takes you to Thailand in the best way possible. Authentic food, great hospitality and stunning atmosphere.

REIMAGINING YOUR THAI EXPERIENCES. Just a short walk from Park Avenue, a new Thai restaurant has quickly established itself as a Union Square gem. From the moment you step inside, the space dazzles: a retro-Thai vision lush with hanging greenery, evoking the gardens of Babylon. At the entrance, a small shop offers house-made noodles and sauces to take home—a thoughtful touch that extends the experience beyond the meal. The kitchen shows both confidence and ambition. The crab durian curry is a standout, weaving together briny sweetness and the fruit’s unmistakable musk into a dish as bold as it is unforgettable. The tomato som tum cocktail, a bright, clever reimagining of the classic salad, offers a refreshing counterpoint—playful, unexpected, and perfectly balanced. Cocktails arrive as works of craft and balance, every sip carrying the hand of an artist. Hospitality here is more than a courtesy; it feels choreographed. The manager glides between tables with an attentive ease, ensuring each guest feels part of the room’s rhythm. It’s rare to find a place where service, setting, and flavor move in such harmony, but this one seems destined to become a fixture in the neighborhood.

Stepping into LenLen is like entering a chic, retro-Thai world. The restaurant immediately impresses with its warm hospitality and family-friendly vibe, framed by lush greenery hanging from the ceiling that adds a natural, artistic touch. We sampled the Jungle Curry, perfectly spicy, and the Crab Durian Curry, a bold, well-balanced delight that speaks to the chef's skill. Complementing these dishes was the Tomato Som Tum cocktail, a testament to the restaurant's serious craftsmanship. Freshness is key here, with vegetables sourced directly from the local farmers market, allowing each bite to sing with flavor. LenLen also features a charming bodega-style reception, stocked with Thai grocery staples--from noodles and spices to traditional sauces--inviting guests to take a piece of Thailand home. Ask for Lenny for an extra touch of personalized service. You might see him everywhere! With five-star service that's both fun and knowledgeable, LenLen is a must-visit for anyone seeking a vibrant, flavorful Thai experience in Union Square.

We love Thai food and we've never had Thai food like this (here in the city or anywhere else)! From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by the friendly staff and our server was attentive throughout our meal. She double checked with the kitchen because of our son's allergies, and accurately warned us about the spice level of the different dishes. Having been in the city for a while now, it can be rare to see food you've never seen or try it in new ways, which was the case when we got a bowl of fresh veggies with our eggplant dip. I didn't know "fairytale eggplant" existed-- and I had never eaten them raw. I was a bit hesitant to try the crab with durian but it was scrumptious. Lenlen is also notable for their decor. The first thing that caught my eye was the door handle and then the blue tile, and my daughter pointed out the cool photography on the wall. It's a lively place! So glad to see them in the neighborhood!

I can't believe I'm the first to review! What a gem in NYC! The place is such a vibe, feels like stepping into a modern Bangkok shophouse. moody, stylish, but still warm and welcoming. The menu is full of creative takes on Thai flavors. I tried the spaghetti squash with crabmeat and durian coconut curry and it completely blew my mind. Fresh ingredients, beautiful presentation, and flavors, This place is Rad. Definitely my new favorite Thai spot in the city!

This is a stunning new restaurant with a mid century feel. The food is so good and the fried chicken is out of this world. I would recommend trying the thai tea cocktail!
