Thai skewers, cocktails, and Isan dishes in a lively setting
"From the same people that run Soothr, Sappe is a good-time restaurant in the West Village fueled by pink neon and a theater marquee entrance. There are three things you must order on every visit: the first-rate grilled Thai ping yang skewers, a fiery fruit salad, and the somsri, a fluffy pink concoction of golden tequila and lime zest that’s one of our favorite frozen cocktails in New York. Once that’s out of the way, you can focus on the rest of the spicy, bright, and funky menu. Grab a larger protein off the grill, some sweet noodles with pork rinds, and a basil-fueled duck laab ped udon that’ll have you reaching for that frozen drink again and again." - team infatuation
"Sappe (from the Soothr team) was built for parties. The Thai restaurant in Chelsea glows neon pink, with a mirrored ceiling, over-the-top cocktails, and a noisy back room that can accommodate big groups. Order a bunch of skewers for the table—prioritizing the squid, chicken skin, and fried okra—and don’t skip the laab ped udon with its fiery mound of basil and ground duck.

"Sappe comes from the team behind Soothr, an East Village Thai restaurant that’s one of our favorites in the city, and the quality of the food here is just as exciting. A night at Sappe feels like a night at the movies, from the bright yellow marquee out front and the mirror on the ceiling to the cocktails inspired by female characters from Thai film and TV. It can be a bit difficult to make a day-of reservation, but if you plan ahead a day or two, you should be able to snag a seating between 6-8pm and order all the cuttlefish and tiger prawn skewers your heart desires.

"This sequel to the East Village Thai spot Soothr feels like the glam afterparty of a 1970s movie premier. If you need a place that immediately sets the tone for a lively night out, stop by and eat skewers beneath a mirrored ceiling while you listen to a Thai pop soundtrack. The food—like the spicy duck laab, and a seasonal fruit salad with fish sauce—doesn’t hold back, and the elaborate cocktails keep the mood festive. Try the frozen Somsri, made with tequila, lime zest, and guava puree. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve.

"Drinking a fluffy pink frozen cocktail alongside some Thai skewers should be on just about every summer bucket list. Sappe’s offering makes the cut: the Somsri, pink with guava purée, and balanced with lime zest and gold tequila, cools down even the laab ped udon at this West Village restaurant.
