"Maybe you’re currently sitting on a couch somewhere on the Upper West Side pondering massaman curry. Calling Sala Thai should be your next step. Their takeout menu has various curries and noodle dishes as well as some things you won’t find at many other Thai spots in the neighborhood like taro samosas and chocolate Thai tea lava cake. This is a particularly good option for lunch, since they have over a dozen specials that come with soup or salad and your choice of appetizer." - hannah albertine, bryan kim
"Sala Thai is one of our favorite spots on the Upper West Side for a nice dinner that isn’t too big of a deal. Expect a range of curries, noodles, and specialty Thai dishes that you can split with a friend. Also - for the purposes of this guide, we’re considering sitting in a comfortable leather chair in a muraled room with gold accents “low-key.” It is the Upper West Side." - hannah albertine
"If you live on the Upper West Side, this should be one of your go-to neighborhood Thai spots. There’s a bar up front, and up a flight of stairs in the back you’ll find a dining room with gold light fixtures, comfortable leather chairs, and murals on the walls. The menu has various curries and noodle dishes as well as some less common options like taro samosas and razor clams in coconut milk. Bring a date, or stop by with some friends the next time you want to have a nice sit-down dinner that isn’t too formal. RESERVE A TABLE WITH RESERVE A TABLE" - Bryan Kim
"In eight months on the Upper West Side Sala Thai has become a hit for dishes like razor clams sautéed in a blazing spicy-sweet coconut-milk chile sauce with basil and a crispy rice salad with Thai pork sausage; the interior is lushly decorated with chandeliers, wood paneling, and gold ornaments." - Eater Staff
"A 60-seat Thai restaurant, Ruadee is slated to open in April at 307 Amsterdam Ave." - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya
