Nemesis

Phenomenal and amazing, 10/10 visit. Service was flawless, both of our waiter are extremely polite and attendant. Food is great, recommend getting the Bone Marrow and the Black Sesame Cheesecake for dessert! Ambiance is also amazing, perfect for conversation and the food arrives in a speedy manner. Able to get full and be happy without breaking the bank too much too! Would definitely be back :)

We had an amazing experience at Nemesis. The ambiance was absolutely delightful. I’m addition to the delectable food and incredible drinks, the service was impeccable. Most notably, our server Luis catered to our every whim and need with the most warm and inviting disposition. From his suggestions to his overall manner and infectious smile, he ensured that our experience was perfect. He even arranged for us to have the octopus when it was officially not on the menu. He is the definition of hospitality. We adored our time here and cannot wait to return!

Good food, good service, good atmosphere (was a tad dark but maybe I'm getting old). I would say modern Thai food compared to places like Pranakhon. Less spicy but still great flavor overall. Tom Yum seafood entree was hearty. Good amount of seafood. Not spicy really. More on the sour and savory side. Maybe some glass noodles in there would be a good addition? The XL volcano ribs dish is really pork neck/spine bones. NOT ribs. I was actually a bit disappointed. While I love pork neck bones I was expecting ribs. It was meaty but definitely not meaty like an actual rib. Flavor was excellent. Good with white rice. The mushroom pad cha was excellent. Savory and earthy with the mushroom. The sauce was excellent. Laksa noodles were really excellent! The curry sauce, the chicken cutlet, the sprouts and the boodles worked really well together! Very excellent dish! And finally we had the sesame basque cheese cake with coconut cream and the pineapple plan. But the desserts were surprisingly light. The black sesame cheesecake was a bit savory due to the sesame and it was just excellent. The pineapple flan was fruity, not overly sweet, and silky. They were both great. Service was prompt and excellent. Some of the Instagram dishes weren't available anymore. But the server was excellent and informative. Dirty dishes were promptly exchanged and water was filled regularly.

The atmosphere when you walk in is really nice and so is the staff, however, they do not ask about dietary restrictions. I am very sad about the dishes we got cause they were too spicy especially the Tom yum rice. I ate that and felt very sick. The octopus and drunken noodles as well as many other dishes are made with soy sauce. The pistachio cheesecake is what we stuck with because the flan was a bad batch. Go figure The Thai ice tea is the biggest stand out because of the jelly—whoa, they even had lactaid milk and almond!

A perfect dining atmosphere — the dim, warm lighting creates a cozy and stylish vibe. The dishes are refined and full of surprising flavors, blending elements of Thai, Chinese, and Malaysian cuisines into a unique Asian fusion experience. The lemon fish was especially delicious, and the stir-fried cabbage had the authentic taste of a traditional Sichuan restaurant while also incorporating some creative twists. Overall, a highly recommended spot that’s definitely worth trying.

the service was amazing (gave us free appetizer dish!) and atmosphere was nice and calming, although there some entrees that tasted more like asian mix (like chinese) than Thai, but there were still good Thai flavors in like the chicken wings and the beef slices appetizer

This place is a flavor paradise! The **Tomyum Fried Rice** is an absolute standout—tangy tomyum flavors combined with rich bone marrow, succulent shrimp, and tender scallops create an explosion of taste in every bite. The **Grilled Pork Belly** is another masterpiece—crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and perfectly paired with a tangy Thai dip that adds the perfect zing. And the **Padang Short Ribs**? Simply divine! Fall-off-the-bone tender, slow-braised in a mildly sweet curry, it’s comfort food at its finest. Every dish is crafted with care and creativity, making this a must-visit for anyone who loves bold, unforgettable flavors!

Great ambiance and food here Tried their spicy corn ribs which was coated in tamarind glaze and cilantro. The fried rice with greens was perfectly spicy and flavorful too

I decided to stop in this restaurant to get dinner. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked in and was greeted. I was served by Luis, and he was great. I ordered: Vodka Martini Spiced Corn Ribs Heritage Chicken Satay Tom Yum Seafood Fried Rice Branzino The food was excellent! My favorite definitely was the branzino! It was super flavorful! I loved everything and definitely would return!

(Overall: B) - Nemesis is a southeast asian-forward fusion restaurant that beautifully incorporates elements of Eastern and Western cuisine to highlight the beauty of southeast asian flavors. The food is executed well of high quality, and the presentation is equally elegant. The ambience was decently calm and pleasant, so my only criticism is that the staff were attentive when it came to ordering, but nowhere to be found for the rest of the visit. (Scallop: A+) - The scallops taste as impressive as it looks. This dish is perfected in the attention to detail, from ice to keep it chilled, to the spice to bring a light heat, and the slicing in a delicate way to highlight the sheen of the scallop. The only thing this dish could possibly do better is perhaps to finish with a sprinkle of flake salt. (Beef Short Rib: A+) - This platter starts off strong with a tender short rib that is pre cut for easy consumption, soaked in a seductive curry. The coconut rice adds a beautiful fragrance to absorb that luscious curry and the pickled vege adds a pleasant contrastive acidity. Most platters come off as very cafeteria like, so I'm pleased that this dish kept the emphasis on elevated presentation. (Crab Fried Rice: B) - This fried rice maintains all the elements of the comfort food, but is elevated with an abundance of crab and egg saute that adds a natural sweetness. I do think this dish could be made a signature by additional layers of flavor or textural development.

Nemesis is a perfect spot for GNO, date night, or a small intimate hangout. My bestie & I came here to celebrate my birthday, and I loved everything we ordered! We came on a Tuesday night around 6pm & it was pretty empty at first, but filled up quickly throughout the hour. Highly recommend making reservations for busier times and weekends. We just made the happy hour times which I was ecstatic about - can't say no to $12 drinks! The lychee margarita was fruity & well balanced, but I didn't try the Thai & Cozy (not a huge chai fan). Between the both of us, we decided on the crying tiger steak, mie goreng, and the tom yum fried rice. The portions here are generous - I'd say our 3 dishes could've easily been split amongst 3 people. We had plenty of leftovers! The crying tiger steak was really tasty and overall cooked perfectly, though there were a few pieces that were a little chewy. I was pleasantly surprised by how much steak there was for 10 oz. We were a bit on the fence initially about ordering the mie goreng, thinking it'd just be like a regular chow mein. I'm glad we did though because I actually really liked it! It comes with a bit of a kick, and the noodles are seasoned really well. Tom yum fried rice was also an interesting dish for me - the tom yum flavors weren't overwhelming, but you could definitely taste it. I'm a sucker for bone marrow, so I loved that it came with the fried rice. It adds just the extra bit of fatty goodness that the rice needed. Service was attentive and not overbearing. Our waters were never empty, and food came out pretty quickly. Overall - would recommend, and already looking forward to coming back to try other dishes!

I forget when I added this to my bookmark or how i even stumbled upon this place but it had a lot of last minute available reservations for a party of 5. Last minute as in 48-72 hrs notice. The place was elegantly decorated. The service was friendly and attentive. We loved the ribbed corn. The chicken satay was interesting as they were grilled chicken meatballs and not just grilled pieces of chicken. We shared the crab fried rice, the char Kway teow and the Indonesian mia goreng. They were all done very well. You can't go wrong. We also got the tiger steak which I didn't particularly like. It was an interesting cut of steak. I Would recommend for apps and entrees given the space, the many food options and cocktail options.

The physical menu had prawn lumpia, but the online menu only had crab lumpia. I told the server prawn lumpia, but when it was brought out they announced it as crab lumpia. Either way, I wouldn't recommend this dish. It was really oily with very little filling. The filling itself was black pepper carrots, no crab or prawn in sight. The sauce carried this dish. I spent a lot of time picking apart the crust so I wouldn't consume an alarming amount of oil. I ordered no sugar Thai ice tea and they told me no sugar wasn't possible, just less sugar. To my surprise, it wasn't sweet at all! It came with some grass jelly. The mie goreng was good, but nothing to write home about. Bell peppers forward flavors and spicy. The crying steak was good, the sauce elevated the dish for me. This was the best dish of the night. Lastly, we ordered the pandan flan and it was burning my throat. I couldn't identify what was causing that. The pandan flavor was very faint and I only really tasted dry coconut flakes (even after scraping it off). This was $18, not worth it. The restaurant is beautiful and large. Service was kind of hard to track down, but I didn't mind. Overall, I wouldn't revisit or recommend. I'm not sure if we ordered the wrong dishes, but it didn't live up to the hype of other reviews for me. It was also overpriced.

The dishes ranged from "great" to "spectacular". Of note, the pork belly small plate, the Mee ko rang (even asking for it less spicy it's got some kick), and the string beans with minced pork are amazing dishes. For dessert my friends preferred the flan over the pistachio cheesecake but I enjoyed the latter just a little more. Service was great - water refilled, plates cleared, frequent stops to ask if we needed anything. Supposedly this is actually known more as a cocktail place, and to confirm that the drinks menu is significantly bigger than the food menu. Their cocktails are original. By the descriptions, I thought they'd all be too sweet, but everyone loved what they ordered. The warm cocktail (Tea and ... something) was quite good for a cold evening. And the space is lovely. We got a table in the front but the restaurant goes pretty far back. For a midweek evening, it wasn't crowded but wasn't empty either. A great place and a reminder of why New York is so fantastic.

Nemesis in Flatiron is such a vibe. The ambiance is super cozy--perfect for a dinner with friends, a date night, or even just going solo. It feels intimate but not too serious, which I loved. The cocktails were amazing, and they really nailed the creativity. The Movie Star cocktail was such a cool twist--a rich espresso martini with sweet foam and actual popcorn on top. So unique! But the Thai iced tea with grass jelly? Hands down my favorite. It was just perfection. The food was insane. The volcano ribs were melt-in-your-mouth good, and the soup in the dish was ridiculously delicious. The bone marrow was easily my favorite--so rich and flavorful. And the Tom Yum fried rice? Super unique and packed with flavor. Honestly, every single dish felt special, and the plating was next level. On top of all that, the service was incredible--super friendly and attentive without being over the top. Nemesis has officially become one of my favorite spots in the city. Can't wait to go back!

Led by the team behind Antidote, Nemesis is a trendy upscale restaurant weaving Southeast Asian culinary styles. It spotlights traditional dishes from Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia with a modern twist. Their food and drinks were so delicious that I wanted to give a star to everything I got. Attentive service and sophisticated atmosphere. This could be a great choice to bring a friend visiting NYC to enjoy a multicultural dining experience. ＊Grilled Iberico Pork Belly $23 * The pork belly was flame-grilled and well-marinated. Every bite was juicy and bursting with a savory, tangy flavors. The edges were slightly charred which gave some smoky aroma. It had a good meat-to-fat ratio so it wasn't greasy at all. ＊Heritage Chicken Satay $16 We were pleasantly surprised to see chicken satay in meatball shape. It was so flavorful with the peanut butter satay sauce. The cucumber, red onion and cherry tomato made it more refreshing as a starter. ＊Crying Angus Steak $39 *** We were so OBSESSED with this crying angus steak!! The angus ribeye were marinated in thai sauce and chimichurri. Each piece were cooked perfectly to medium rare and thinly sliced. 10oz was A LOT and my Asian instinct told me it would be great with jasmine rice. The mixed roasted fingerling potatoes and sweet tomatoes on the side were aromatic and very enjoyable. ＊Tom Yum Seafood Fried Rice $35 * We got their most viral bone marrow tom yum fried rice. The bone marrow was melt-in-your-mouth fatty. It was 100% insta-worthy though the bone marrow didn't really add much flavor to the dish. The scallops were cooked to absolute perfection and the prawns were very bouncy. Wish it could be a tad spicier. ＊Lychee V $10 * ＊Sky High $19 Worth to mention they have an impressive selection of cocktail and wine menu. The aesthetics and Asian-inspired flavors are spot-on. Sky High waz a picture-perfect cocktail with cotton candy, with a base of rum, pineapple, lychee, lemon and four season tea. It didn't taste too alcoholic so it was right up my lane. While Lychee V was a mocktail with lychee, oolong tea, jasmine tea syrup, yuzu, lime and tonic. Loved the tea flavors and it wasn't too sweet.

The spacing between the tables are a bit on the cramp side but the ambiance and decor are still upscale. The service is amazing 5/5 literally the best servers I have had the pleasure to meet. Despite how busy they were they made sure to be attentive and really kind. So far the best service I have ever had. Now the food. Bone marrow: 4/5 this super viral dish was great. It had a nice spice to it but the flavors of the bone marrow were a bit lost. Still delicious. Salted Egg Yolk Soft Shell Crab: 4/5 Absolutely delicious! The curry was amazing and the crab cooked to perfection. The only thing is this didn't come with rice which it absolutely needs and the reason it's a 4/5 is because I didn't taste any of the salted egg yolk part. That flavor was absolutely lost. If they didn't mention the salted egg yolk I wouldn't have noticed. A suggestion would be to have them shaved some salted egg yolk on top. Lamb Shank Kareen Curry; 5/5 fall off the bone cooked to perfection meat. This was delicious and the flavors were on point. 100% must get! Coffee Ice cream:5/5 great wait to cool off from from the delicious , spicy, and savory meal. Flan: 5/5 out of the this world. One of the most flavorful and creamiest flan I have had. Lychee Mocktail: 5/5 delicious and refreshing! Overall amazing restaurant that you can't go wrong with any of the dishes!

This restaurant is very cute. Loved the decor. The cocktail menu was extensive. A good amount of unique cocktails. The menu also scales the cocktails on potency, sweetness and sourness which I thought was great. Easier to find a cocktail that suited you. There were so many yummy looking choices on the food menu as well. I went with the Mie Goreng which was so good. Had a nice spicy kick to it too. Service was friendly. Enjoyed everything about the experience here.

I visited Nemesis on a Tuesday evening with a friend and had a great experience overall. The restaurant has a relaxed and chic vibe, and the decor is clean and modern. We were warmly greeted by the hostess and promptly seated. Unfortunately, two menu items--the morning glory and Padang short ribs--were unavailable, which was a bit disappointing since we were excited to try the morning glory. But we went with the lychee mocktail, grilled whole branzino, charred octopus, and spiced corn ribs. The food was excellent. The spiced corn ribs were sweet and savory, the charred octopus was tender and paired perfectly with its sauce, and the branzino stole the show. The crispy skin and melt-in-your-mouth fish were amazing, though you do need to watch out for bones. The lychee mocktail was refreshing and a great non-alcoholic option. Every dish was beautifully presented, and the service was attentive. I'd definitely come back to try more!

I almost don't want to write a review because I don't want everyone to find out this restaurant is AMAZING! It's focused on Thai food but it has a lot of other Asian food influences. Every dish I tried so far is all delicious and they go extra mile for Thai ice tea because the ice cubes are also made of ice tea. The service is great and attentive, candle-lit ambience is suitable for a date or casual friends get-together!

We had the char kuey teow, beef satay, and char kuey teow. Service was great! The place has a nice dark ambiance and is a good place for a date night or food with friends.

This was a great Thai place in manhattan. Great place to hang out and grab a drink with some friends. The service was pretty fast and friendly for midday, and the menu was mainly common Thai food with a twist. For three people we ordered the fried rice, pad see ew, fried chicken, and pork. The fried chicken was delicious! My favorite out of all other dishes. Overall would come back again to try other items in the menu.

Nemesis in New York, NY. Words can't describe how much I love this place. The decor is beautiful, the food is stunning and the cocktails are speakeasy quality. Everything we ate was 10/10-especially the Whole Grilled Branzino. The branzino is flame grilled making the skin extra crispy and the sauce on top hits all of the taste buds. Service was amazing "Nemesis" is part of NYC coming back with a "vengeance" with serving amazing Asian influenced food.

I came here with a group of 9 ppl for my birthday. The food was delicious - literally every dish we ordered was plated beautifully and tasted soooo damn good!! Full disclosure: I did not take any photos because I just dove into eating. We tried a little bit of everything. They are really hitting all of the good and bold flavors here. I do wish the portions were a bit bigger for everything though. Service was okay - they were nice but I did feel like they were just trying to get us out as fast as possible at some moments. Overall, everyone in my party LOVED their experience. The food, drinks, ambiance - a very well-rounded and elevated experience. I highly recommend!!

Made a reservation for a party of 5 on a Friday evening, and I loved the interior and service. Barely made it in time for happy hour - I only got one cocktail that was recommended by a waiter and it was mixed with baijiu which had a very interesting and strong flavor. All the waiters were very attentive without checking in too much. We ordered four dishes, which came out a bit pricy, but honestly I think it was worth it. Every single dish was great, but the ribs in particular were amazing! It's a huge rack and it's soaked in a zesty soup, where the meat was super tender and flavorful. The crab fried rice was very soft and not too salty at all. Drunken noodles weren't really spicy, but had a rich taste. I'm not a huge fan of salted egg yolk so I was a little worried, but there wasn't the typical scent of salted egg yolk, and the crab was super easy to eat. Definitely recommend this place!

Just had an incredible dining experience at Nemesis, a new Southeast Asian Fusion gem in Midtown Manhattan! The decor is absolutely stunning, creating the perfect ambiance for a memorable meal. We indulged in the whole grilled branzino and Padang short rib--both dishes were bursting with rich, flavorful goodness! The branzino was perfectly grilled, and the short rib was melt-in-your-mouth tender. Every bite was a delight, and we savored every moment. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to elevate their dining experience! We ordered -Banana leaf steamed egg 16 -Scallop crudo 24 -Padang short rib 42 -Grilled whole Branzino 45 -Drunken Noodles 27 -Peach Tea 10 -Thai ice tea 8 Save this and follow @spinx17 for more NYC food recs!

No, like, actually it's REALLLLY FREAKING GOOD! Last minute decided to come on a Wednesday evening with my boyfriend for dinner, we were seated right away! The place and ambiance is a 5/5 and service a 5/5 as well. Not to mention the food... 10/10! We started out with the Octopus - cooked to perfection and paired so well with the yam puree. Ordered the Crab Meat Fried Rice - A MUST GET! They gave a decent amount of crab meat and the dish was just... soooo deliiicious! Also ordered the Drunken Noodle which was too spicy for my taste but my boyfriend LOVEEED IT! The highlight was def the Crab Meat Fried Rice though! Highly recommended! This spot is a bit on the pricier end but hey, worth a date night!

Situated in the Flatiron district, Nemesis offers an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and inviting. The establishment specializes in delivering vibrant Southeast Asian cuisine, drawing inspiration from the culinary traditions of Malaysian, Thai, and Vietnamese fares. Each dish is artfully arranged to not only captivate your eyes but also stimulate your appetite. This setting is ideal for a romantic evening or an elegant outing with friends and family. I recommend making a reservations because it gets packed quickly.

The ambience was very cool and nice. Really enjoyed the vibes. The food was good but not amazing, which I expected more for the more expensive price point. The scallops were very good and soft. My fried chicken noodle curry dish ok.

Service: 2/5 The service was notably slow despite the restaurant being only a quarter full. It took an extended amount of time to receive our drinks, and no one checked on us to take our food order or see if we needed anything. What should have been a one-hour meal turned into a two-hour wait due to the delayed service. Ambiance: 3/5 The interior of the restaurant is quite dark, making it difficult to see the food. We were seated next to the bar, which was uncomfortable as the ass of other customers sitting at the bar were directly at eye level with us. The tables are too close to the bar and the ass other customers right next to our face , which makes the overall experience uncomfortable Food: 4/5 Most of the food was delicious, though the portion sizes were small relative to the price. It might be worth trying once, but the high cost could deter a return visit. Recommended Dishes: Grilled Pork Belly: Excellent flavor, perfectly cooked, and tender. Tiger Steak: Great flavor and tenderness. Dishes to skip: Crab Fried Rice: Lacks flavor and is not worth ordering. Seafood Pot: Also lacks flavor; consider getting seafood elsewhere. Bone Marrow: The flavor is good, but the high price for a single bone cut in half, plus the additional cost for tiny bread, makes it less appealing. Dishes to Avoid: Scallop Crudo: Extremely small portion--essentially one thinly sliced scallop--smaller than a sushi piece.

Has a lovely dinner her with a large group. The cocktails were great and I really enjoyed my grilled branzino and Thai gimlet. In addition to the branzjno, I tried the crab fried rice and one of the noodle dishes. We skipped appetizers, but I go back. Service started off a bit slow with drinks.

We absolutely loved Nemesis! This spot is such a gem and we already have recommended this spot to all our friends the food is beyond delicious every bite melts in your mouth and seasoned to the T! No one knows details better than @nemesis. It's hard to pick favorites when everything is a favorite, but if you go definitely get the roasted bone marrow,grilled Iberico pork belly, drunken noodles, crying Angus steak Loved the cocktails! The cocktail menu deserves its own round of applause. Each drink is crafted with care and flair, but the Sky High stole the show. Topped with whimsical cotton candy, it's as Instagram-worthy as it is delicious.

We came to celebrate a good friend's birthday and had a lovely time in this low-lit, block-spanning narrow enclave of an eatery, let's dive in... Spiced Corn Ribs (4/5): Like all dishes here, the presentation was thoughtful and elegant -- in this case, a lovely rib tower. The corn itself was well cooked and sweet. Grilled Eggplant (5/5): The dish came with fork and knife which was appreciated. It was essentially two octopus-leg-resembling eggplant pieces which absorbed the sweet and umami sauce soaking the base of this dish. Pad Kra Pao (3/5): I love spicy Thai basil and this dish didn't bring enough heat nor flavor that you expect from this dish. The portion was particularly large compared to the other entres. Pad Hor (4/5): The shrimp and the bean sprout were fairly plain and needed a bit more flavor. The noodles however were decadent and after mixing everything together the dish came together. When it arrived, there was no room to stir everything until you pick a bit off the top. Service (5/5): I must say the service was superb here. Staff were incredibly attentive -- one example, I dropped a chopstick and our server rushed over ready with a new pair! Ambiance (no rating): I'm not a design expert so I'll keep in my lane. I just wanted to comment that this is a funky footprint of a restaurant as it's a skinny line straight across a whole block. TL;DR: Lovely service and some tasty bites. Great for eaters of all types as our company got their dishes vegan without any issue.

We started off with Peach Tea and Thai tea, which were both perfectly sweetened and refreshing. The market oysters that had a tangy bright citrus sauce. Charred octopus was perfectly cooked- soft in the inside with a nice bite to it on the outside. The night market stir fried wide noodles were perfectly chewy and had such a delicious sauce. You must get the Salted Egg Yolk Softshell crab, it was so rich and creamy and super crunchy. The sauce had a bit of a heat to it. If you're looking for a showstopper, the whole grilled branzino is it!! Check out Nemesis Kitchen for some truly delicious, satisfying, and flavorful SouthEast Asian cuisine.

Monday 6:30pm dinner, I made a reservation to catch up with an old coworker/friend. The menu is quite extensive, and we asked for some recommendations from the waiter. Everything we got was amazing! Each protein was tender and super flavorful! Each bite was so scrumptious I couldn't stop eating. It was the perfect spot for catching up with a friend, bc we talked to hourssss and I didn't feel rushed at all. The decor of the restaurant is super cozy as well. If I had to list any critique, it would be maybe the price? But hey, this is NYC and unfortunately everything is pricey here. I would definitely recommend this place for a delicious evening dinner out! I think they have some lunch deals too for anyone that works in the union square/ flatiron area!

Amazing place, really great flavors, super delicious and sooo flavorful. Perfect to warm up on a cold day. Full bar with great cocktails. Nice decor, lighting great for date nights. Really loved the whole experience.

Go here for if you're happy to pay top dollar for the ambiance and the Instagrammable dishes. If all you want is flavorful food, go elsewhere. The service was good, and we felt well taken care of throughout. The main draw is the ambiance, aesthetic and vibes: the drinks were colorful and beautiful, the decor was pristine and Asian, the soft lighting and murmur of conversation all around would be great for a romantic date. As for the food - the Crying Tiger steak was good (tender meat, flavorful marinade and sauce) but seriously overpriced for what it was. The Drunken Noodle was tasted flavorless to me, although that could be because I ate it alongside the Crying Tiger. It's good food, but I really can't imagine this food deserving the prices they're asking for.

Stopped in for a late dinner and was promptly greeted by the staff. It wasn't busy - maybe 2 or 3 other parties but I loved the dark and moody interior with plants and neutrals. Nemesis serves a Thai/ Asian fusion menu with crafted cocktails. I was excited to order one of their cocktails but was disappointed to hear they were all sweet tasting. My boyfriend got the Highnoon Jakarta and I had one sip and it was way too sweet for me. They also did not have any uncaffeinated hot teas which was also odd to me. It was a little weird to me that they couldn't control the lychee margarita sweetness level but I guess that's what you get with premade drinks? Hope they offer more options soon. Well onto the food, we got the scallop crudo, wanted to get bone marrow (informed they were out AFTER we ordered), drunken noodles, pan dang short rib and the chicken green curry. Tasty but nothing wowed me. The best thing was the pandang short rib as it had nice flavor, fell off the bone and the sauce was very tasty. Good for a date night if you are looking for a more intimate setting. Will be curious to see how they get more people in the door. I would try one of the many other NYC restaurants rather than return.

First impression: delicious! This a beautifully, soothing establishment with dim lighting and soft music. The mirror in the rear makes this place look twice as big as it actually is. Within 10 minutes of taking my order, I was sitting before a heaping plate of corn ribs, sweet and savory. The lychee mocktails was perfect for this sober sister, with enough heft that I didn't down it within seconds. My entree of crab fried rice didn't stand a chance, especially paired with their seafood sauce. DEVOURED the whole bowl. I enjoyed this dining experience thoroughly and will definitely be returning for more in the future!

Nice ambiance. Overpriced. Some dishes are pretty good. I loved the beef rib. The meat is tender and the curry flavor is delicious. Crab fried rice is not bad either. A little too salty, but overall a good dish. Prawn lumpia is just glorified shrimp spring roll. I don't recommend it at this price. The worst dish was the duck. It lacked flavor and I personally hated the soft fatty duck skin. We (2 girls) initially ordered 3 dishes (two mains and one appetizer). The waitress was like it's not enough, get a crab fried rice, everyone loves it. It turned out to be way too much food.

The service was impeccable. Everyone was so tentative and sweet. Atmosphere was lovely as well, could hear well enough to have actual conversations. We had the octopus, branzino, ribs, and crab fried rice. Would recommend!

Love this place! The ambiance was a nice, upscale casual vibe, and the food was fabulous. Highly recommend and will def be back. The lychee margarita was delicious. I could've had 5 of them. Agree with other reviews that it's weird it only comes half full. As for food, we loved the crab fried rice, night market noodles, and prawn lumpia. The beef rib wasn't bad either but relatively speaking, the rest were much better. Food came out quick and servers frequently checked in to see how we were doing. All around a great place! Easy to make a reservation on resy though we wouldn't have needed one (we came on a Sunday night around 7:30pm and there were plenty of empty tables).

Pretty cute contemporary/thai fusion spot. Seasoning and spice was pretty on point. Great for date night since dishes are relatively small and designed for sharing. Wouldn't be as good for larger groups. Likely not an 'event' experience but good for tuesday night catch-up with your friend/partner. Food: 7/10 Value: 6/10 Service: 7/10 Vibe: 7/10

the food was all very flavorful. also the ambiance is nice - not too cramped and enough space to comfortably dine, even for larger groups. i went in a group with 8 people and it wasnt hard to get a reservation the day before. i will say i thought the crying tiger steak was a tiny bit overhyped but still good

A hidden gem Thai restaurant that hits the spot in Flatiron. I fully recommend coming with a large group to be able to sample all the options on the menu because they truly are delicious. Don't miss out on the specialty cocktails!

I went to this spot with my group back in October. Forgot to write a review. They are related to Antidote apparently even though that spot is Chinese I believe. As the rest of the group loved that spot we went here. Slightly dark inside but fine for photos and the service was nice. They had a unique cocktail menu and as I was there early, I got a drink first and brought it to the table once others arrived. I got the Tempest for $17 with Kaoliang 58% baijiu, white gourd tea, lemon, fresh ginger, and toasted pink peppercorn. Said cocktail was unique and tasty. There was some light sweetness but not too much with some spice from the ginger and a nice aftertaste from the pink peppercorn. There's not many places with baijiu cocktails and this was a good one. We first got the Curry Pork Ribs for $21 with twice-cooked ribs on the bone, mild karee curry, and kaffir lime leaves. This was outstanding with super tender ribs that might have been on the bone but they fell off with a slightly sweet curry with a bit of spice. This type of curry is more associated with seafood but it worked well here. We soon got the majority of the other dishes. The Crying Tiger Steak at $39 is listed as a Thai-marinated grilled 10oz skirt steak, organic and grass fed with Thai chimichurri, crispy fingerlings, and nam jim jeow. This was a very tasty version of this northern Thai dish, Suea rong hai. The sauce was excellent; better flavored than most spots I've been to; and the steak had a slight chew as it was a skirt steak but not too much. The portion size was good for the price and I would recommend it. A bit more pricey was the Padang Beef Ribs at $46, a Indo-braised grass-fed beef rib grilled with pickled cucumber and chili, and a mild padang curry. This was a huge fall off the bone rib with a slightly spiced curry with some sweetness. The lightly pickled cucumbers and chilis with the former being refreshing and the latter having a fiery kick. This was tasty also though I would recommend splitting it as it gets a bit overwhelmingly fatty eventually. The Sambal Skate for $32 with roasted marinated skate fish, shishito peppers. rustic Sambal sauce, and crispy fin bones was nicely presented with the large fried crispy fish bone. The fish was tender but there wasn't enough of the sambal sauce. I'm used to sambal flavored foods being quite well spiced and this wasn't. Probably the only large dish with enough faults that I might not recommend it. There was finally the obligatory Drunken Noodles for $25 also listed as the more directly named Pad Kee Mao. Listed as Angus beef sautéed Thai inspired wide rice noodle stir-fry with string beans, Thai basil, and chili. The noodle had a good texture and flavor and the beef was tender. Was it worth $25? Nah. It's just the prices match the rest of the dishes here. Go with the other more unique offerings. As most of the food was good, some of us got dessert. The Flan was excellent with a slight pandan flavor as well as coconut. It was a satisfying end to an excellent meal. Very tasty food outside of maybe 1/2 dishes that weren't as worth it as well as a very tasty cocktail. I'd go back. Low 4

Nemesis was the perfect spot for our girls' night dinner. Food was delicious and perfect portions for sharing a bunch of dishes. Drinks were also creative and service was amazing! We made a reservation for a Friday night which was a good call because it got popping around 7pm, but it also seems possible to walk in at earlier times! The three of us ordered three appetizers : scallop crudo, charred octopus, and the tiger shrimp shumai. I would definitely get the octopus again. It was crispy and plentiful! The shumai and scallop were not as standout, but still OK appetizers to get us excited for our entrees. Next time I'd opt for different options. We were very impressed at all of our entrees. The night market noodles were peppery and savory with a hint of sweet, the tiger steak was plentiful and tender, and the crab fried rice was soo addictive with the smokey crab flavor. Of the drinks, I recommend the Tempest, the lychee margarita, and the BK tea. I also can't say enough about how pleasant the service was. The entire staff was attentive, friendly, and not once did we feel rushed. Vibes were also on point. Looking forward to returning!

This place is so bomb, everything I tried was good. The grilled fish was a nice way to try a typically fried fish or fish in soup, as well as the crying tiger. Staff were very friendly and interior is nicely decorated although some of the tables are close to each other. Will be returning!

I was very impressed by Nemesis. We were welcomed and brought to our table quickly. The staff were incredibly friendly and were prepared with recommendations. The lychee margarita was perfect and we enjoyed the ribeye salad, the wings, and a noodle dish. The wings were absolutely to die for. The dim lighting made the atmosphere intimate and romantic. Will definitely recommend to others.

4.5 stars I came here with my bf after work last week and we had a great meal at Nemesis! Definitely a good spot for a date night. For appetizer, we started with the spiced corn ribs. We looved the flavor of this, but definitely city prices at $14! For our entrees, we shared the Crying Tiger Steak, Padang Beef Rib and the Night Market Noodles. The Crying Tiger Steak was delicious - cooked well and the chimichurri was so refreshing! Best dish of the night. The Padang Beef Rib was super tender, the curry was the stand out here for sure since I'm normally not a big fan of beef rib like this. The Night Market Noodles were okay, I was definitely missing the Pad See Ew/Pad Kee Mao vibe which normally has more flavor. Overall, I'd come back! Interested in trying a few other dishes on the menu.

We came to celebrate someone's birthday. The interior design is beautiful and the service was good. The best is the bone marrow and the night market noodles. But I was disappointed when a bone marrow came with a few tiny little pieces of bread and we asked them can we have more bread. They said that a four-dollar charge. For what they charge they can afford to give more bread. And some of the entrées on the menu no longer service

Came for dinner as a group of 4. The restaurant is nicely decorated and the service is friendly. We ordered the corn ribs (7 pieces) and chicken wings (5 pieces) to start. Both were good and cooked nicely, but did not have as much flavor as we would have liked. For entrees we got the crab fried rice, crying tiger steak, grilled branzino and lamb rendang (they were out of the morning glory). The crab fried rice on its own was decent, but definitely benefited from adding the sauce that came with it. The branzino was delicious, cooked perfectly and had great flavor. The crying tiger steak was tasty and very soft. The lamb rendang came as 4 thick lamb chops and the sauce was delicious. Overall a nice meal, just a bit pricey and the portions are on the smaller side. We could have done with another entree, but were not eager to spend another $40.

The food is your typical Thai food with an assortment of different options. I personally would not recommend the cocktails..didn't leave a big impression, but food was decent.

A new addition to NYC's southeast Asian food scene, @nemesis__nyc is created by the same group behind @antidote__nyc. You can see that the interior design is a similar vibe of dim, luxurious modern style. The food is delicious but on the saltier, heavier side. My favorite was the crab fried rice! There were many juicy, tender chunks of crab meat in the rice. Note that the plates come in smaller portions so you can order several to share.

A trendy spot for Thai eats in the Flatiron area -- the space is surprisingly large and well-decorated, and was decently busy for a weeknight dinner. I really loved the ambiance! I recommend getting food family-style and sharing -- my friend and I got the Crab Fried Rice and Green Curry. The Fried Rice had a generous portion of crab but otherwise wasn't too flavorful. The Green Curry, on the other hand, was one of my favorites I've had in a long time!

Wow. Simply amazing. Very nice, clean, welcoming environment. I loved the style of the space and how the tables were organized so it doesn't feel crowded. Our waiter was PERFECT. He really helped us explore the food and drink menu and gave us suggestions based on our preferences. Me and my partner loved every single dish. We had the spice corn ribs, Grilled Iberico Pork Belly, Whole Branzino, and the Thai-Style Jumbo Crab Fried Rice. The flavor and texture profile 10/10 The cocktails we tried the lychee martin and smoked sunset. Perfect flavors Will be coming back again to explore more of the menu

As aesthetic as the dishes looked, flavors fell a little short of expectations and below other trendy popular restaurants serving South East Asian cuisine. Started off with the grilled pork belly. Meat was tender and had a good ratio of meat to fat. My friend felt like it was too salty but I thought it was ok, especially when paired with the cabbage. The padang beef short rib was very tender and meat came right off the bone! Nevertheless felt like it could have been better seasoned. The curry felt more like a generic curry but at least the two paired well. The Night Market noodles featured a good composition of ingredients (squid, chicken, onions, chives, sprouts) with really chewy flat noodles but I wish the flavors were stronger with more soy sauce and white pepper. It didn't have the wok hei 锅气 that legit noodles from street markets would have. Wish I got a chance to try their gin and pandan drinks! Wanted to try their desserts but menu not offered during lunch. The plating was cute and the restaurant itself was very pretty. Staff were polite. Food came out real quick. Again food was decent but flavors could have been stronger.
