Thai Rock

We were suggested to try this place. We called to see if we needed reservations but told to come on in. We arrived at about 7:45 pm and were seated shortly. We had to wait about 10-15 minutes for someone to bring water. My wife's menu was different than mine, which caused some confusion. We were not sure if they were short staffed as they blocked the entrance after we arrived. We placed our order at 8:05 pm for steamed dumplings and our entrees, pad ginger pad thai. We were told they only had pan-fried dumplings left. The appetizer (5 dumplings) came at 8:25. They were meh, with no significant taste. About 9:00, the server came to let us know they were out of jasmine rice and asked if brown rice was OK. We agreed. The main course came out about 5 minutes later, an hour after we ordered. As a matter of fact, the group seated at the same time as us was now leaving as they were done. The food was exceptional. It tasted fresh. I have to give credit for that. The server was good and kept our water filled during our long wait. The atmosphere was pleasant. It had the feeling of a group of friends hanging out. The owner was interacting with locals who seemed to be regulars. While I am not sure I would go back due to the 1 1/2 we were there for a small dinner, my wife thought the food was good enough to warrant a second chance. Also, parking is very limited, so it is best to find close street parking and walk. The view of the water is nice, but the railing blocked my wife from enjoying it.

Waterfront restaurant with decent food. I got takeout but it’s a cozy spot on the water with views. They greet you walking in after you exit the hallway. Lots of seating for guests and a big bar are mainstays in the dining area. The crab fried rice has real crab and quite few lumps in it. Use the fresh lime juice to really bring the dish to life. It’s $28 though! It was filling and the price is still on my mind. I’d go back.

First time ordering from Thai Rock through Doordash. Food is absolutely tasty! We loved everything we ordered except for the Pad Thai- was a bit bland even with the sauce. The only reason I’m giving 4 stars is because it is a bit pricey for the serving size. Other than the price, food is really delicious, definitely will recommend this place. 👍

The star is for the view and location. I really would say that they need more servers, for all the tables they have they need servers and bartenders. The check come with the 18% gratuity included but they don’t care about to give a quality attention. Other restaurants give great attention and don’t charge the gratuity in the check just as suggestion. One cup of juice came with a long hair from the bartender. The servers forgets some plates.

Great location, can watch the sunset closely but the dock. Food was great! Very authentic taste. They have children menu as well which was great, since we have 5 kids in the group. They have a full bar and live music. Parking was a little difficult out front, we parked in the McDonald's park lot next door.

I’m giving this place 3 stars because the food was good but the waitress we had was not helpful. We asked how many dumplings you get and was told 6 but she never mentioned that you only get 6 with certain kinds. We were livid to only get 4 and only got a half butt apology from her and a giggle. The bill was astronomically high for the little stuff that we ordered. I will not be going back but the ocean view was nice outside.

Was taken out here to eat, my first introduction to Thai food and it was very good. However I think the prices are outrageous so I'd never personally come here myself but if you can afford it go to it Nice scenery too

Good is always good at this place but service could be better. We stood in the doorway for at least 1/2 hour as the host took 3 or 4 takeout orders on the phone while we waited to be seated. Someone asked us if we were waiting to be seated so we thought they were going to seat us but then he told us to wait for the host, frustrating. Bottomline, if you're not in a rush or too hungry to wait, the food and ambience are good.

Well we went with 8 people and sat outside on the deck. Within a1/2 hour a huge thunderstorm hit. Although the metal canopy was closed it got a bit damp. Ordered wine and cocktails. I had a seltzer We ordered a lot of food Dumplings, curry puffs, chicken rings for the kids, chicken wings. Entrees beef pad Thai, duck on rice., chef's bowl pork dumplings and noodles in a broth. Salmon bowl.and loads of rice. Well although the food was good it wasn't all that much. The bill was exorbitant!! $740 including tip!!! OMG NEVER AGAIN

We had another great meal here tonight and our drinks were delicious too. I'm addicted to their Ginger Mojito and Brian loves their Mai Tais. We shared the Fried Calamari, Pork Dumplings, and Shrimp appetizer, then I had to have the Duck on Mom's Menu and Brian had his favorite Pad Kaprouw with beef. And we never leave without their Sweet Roti for dessert. I can't say enough about Thai Rock; rent a Jet Ski next door for a Sunset Tour and make a dinner reservation here- you won't regret it! The staff, especially Meta, the proprietess, are attentive and quick, and the food and cocktails are top notch but you don't have to take my word for it. They are recognized by Michelin....hello!

As great as Thai Rock was, it has officially closed, we met with the owner down in Florida and had a great meal at her sisters restaurant.

Service was right there, polite and quick. Food was excellent. Ambiance is very Thai with beautiful pictures and 2 large fish tanks. So enjoyed the experience.

Nice open layout. Lots of natural light. The staff was very friendly and helpful. It was a very relaxing experience to order and to eat. The Pad Thai was great and had a lot in the plate. The sauce had some sweetness to it and the ingredients were all fresh and not over cooked. Definitely give this place a try and it was quick, if you're looking for a quick in and out.

After a 2 hour train ride to get to rockaway beach, my son and I were hungry. We were looking for something different from the fast food served near the beach. When I saw Thai food we headed to it. We went early around 2PM, the view of broad channel and the water was beautiful. It felt like we were on vacation with the beach vibe. I asked for hot and spicy beef pad kee mao and my son ate mild pineapple fried rice. The beef pad kee mao was tasty but I think they made a mistake gave me mild because I tasted no spice in it. I asked for spice to go with it. They gave me some dry spice to use, it made the food tasty to my liking. The pineapple fried rice was good my son ate it, but I felt it was bland when I had a taste of it. I also had the ginger margarita which was good you could taste the ginger in it. Service was attentive, perhaps since it was earlier in the day.

Food and drinks were delicious as always. Service was terrible. Add on kitchen fee?? Waited an hour for our check. Did not have a set waitress there was two women waiting all the tables on a busy Friday night. No one ever came to offer us a refill or see how our food was. It took us getting up and asking one of the waitresses for our check and a to-go box. Again an hour after we finished eating. They passed by us frequently as we were seat next to the bar and a couple next to us whom came in after us got there check before we did. Better off sticking to delivery or take out.

This was my favorite spot in far Rockaway food was amazing always drinks was on another level ....entertainment was ocean side view and a lot more

Omg this place was amazing. I came here on a Monday afternoon and had a great evening. My toddler enjoyed the beautiful views of the water and the calm environment. Food.... The moment you been waiting for, let's just say it was amazing. I ordered crab fried rice and it was tasty. Not to salty just the right amount of flavor. I added soy sauce but that's just me. The calamari was good too and the sweet chili sauce added a kick. My toddler had chicken rings and french fries. I don't eat meat but the french fries were good. I'll actually go back for my own. It was fresh and filling. My toddler enjoyed his chicken rings and couldn't stop smiling. The service was great and our waitress was super knowledgeable about the menu. She answered all my questions and made great recommendations for me and my toddler. I highly recommend going to this spot. Parking is decent. I recommend for families (it's little kid friendly), date night and birthday dinners.

The food was surprisingly very good. And we love thai cuisine. Service was quick and very polite. The place was empty compared to next door restaurant (we preferred more quiet dining). We will be back.

Went here last night with wife and two friends for the first time . I thought the food was really good . Drinks were good . Service was very friendly and polite and food came out within a reasonable time . After food was served it was a long while before our Waitress was seen again and there was a bit of a mishap with our check were I had to alert them they never brought back our credit cards and the check after waiting a bit too long . They were very professional and apologetic and I noticed they comped something on the bill as well as bringing us some banana shots which we all thought was a nice way to correct a wrong . Overall I would definitely recommend this place and hope to go there again sometime soon .

This is one of the places you should definitely go, go a little early, so you can enjoy a little daylight and the view of broad channel. It has a patio with a retractable roof. So was our plan, we came here. But not everything goes as you planned. We sat a corner table, so we enjoy the view and weather. Right after we sat down, they decided. To close the roof. I said why? Oh their reply was the table next to us requested to close. Oh excuse me, i am a paying customer, you should ask everyone if it is ok. Second, they have indoor seating, if you don't want sun hit your face, go the f..k sit inside. Well that roof never got opened back until we leave. Food is incredible, had the calamari and mango salad. Then pineapple shrimp fried rice and tofu pad Thai. For desert fried ice cream and fried banana. Also, when we asked for the check, i saw gratuity added to my bill. You got some nerve!!! Don't please me but add the service charge!!! Terrible service! Deserve only 1 star for this time, just the food was really good, thanks to chef, gets 2stars!!

I went on opening day and the staff there was very friendly. I really like the new open concept decor they did to the interior. The menu seems bigger with a lot of traditional dishes. Everything we order was prepared quickly and had nice presentation. The food was great and my family had a great time. Definitely will be coming back again to try more new dishes!

Great neighborhood Thai spot and they know how to make a drink! The lychee martini is my absolute favorite. I get the same thing every time. The mango salad is always fresh. Curry puffs are so tasty & the drunken noodles can be spicy or not. Every thing is made to order. Large seating inside & outside. Beautiful romantic views for a date night. They let you sit & chill. No staff harassing you to leave after dinner like in the City.

The food was more than amazing every dish was full of flavor. Our waiter Naam was amazing attentive to everything and always making sure we were enjoying. Will come here again so goood

Great view , good food we enjoy everything also good music on Tuesday night highly recommended

Came here with my significant other for celebratory drinks and links. This spot is definitely a hidden gem! Glows: 1. Breath-taking view! It's situated on the Bay overlooking the bridge. We arrived just in time to see the sunset. 2. Strong cocktails: the Blue Margarita was strong and tasty. 3. Great food: the food was amazing. Very flavorful! While here you must try the Pineapple Fried Rice, or Pad Thai. Grows: 1. The pay as you go service: Upon entering you are told to order/ pay at the cash register and sit at your table until your number is called. Once your order is complete, you pick up your food and return to your table. Our food and drinks were served in plastic containers/ cups. The waiter didn't check up on us to see if we needed anything. I understand that restaurants are taking extra precautions in the wake of Covid, but this experience felt like expensive takeout. Overall, this restaurant is beautifully located and has great eats. I mean, eating by the water is always refreshing! However, I think they should reconsider the plastic containers and wait service so that it feels more like a restaurant experience.

I've been here many many times before mostly for bands and sometimes for the food. A beautiful spot situated on the Rockaway bay at the foot of the cross bay bridge. An amazing outdoor eating area for a gorgeous evening like it was tonight. Still in the midst of corona so eating outside only. This was a poor situation. You have to order your own drinks and food at the bar which was mostly closed in with plexiglass which is fine. It's pay as you go. You get a number and when called, you go pick up your food which is served in plastic disposable containers along with plastic cutlery. It feels like a cafeteria. I understand that they are using utmost caution but eating this way isn't worth the fairly high price of the food. Once outdoor dining was approved, I started going out a lot. All establishments had waitress service where gloves and masks were worn. One thing about my food - I ordered crunchy thin noodles with broccoli and pork. About 10 noodles were crunchy. The rest were not because they were drowned in the sauce it comes with. Chicken wings were very good. Until the virus is over I won't go back here.

Really good food ; great flavors . No parking in the the area only if you get lucky and the prices are definitely a bit hiked up .

Went to Thai Rock tonight and it was so BAD. Service, Food just horrible. Not sure if they changed the kitchen staff but the food wasn't the same as I had a few months ago. The Thai Iced tea was also bad. It's not right that they start the suggested tipping at 20%, 22% and 25% as well as a mandatory appreciation tip for the kitchen staff on every bill. I'm all about showing my appreciation for those in the hospitality business or who do a service for me. But it should be at my digression not added to my bill, either way aside from the water view which is the only thing Thai Rock has going for it stay away. Its pricey and the food and service are not good

The portion sizes are shockingly small, especially for the price. Which would be tolerable if the food were at least tasty. I have NEVER eaten such bland food and for it to be Thai, a cuisine typically known for its deliciousness, this was a travesty of tastelessness. The crispy veggie rolls? Bland. The basil fried rice? Bland. I had to sprinkle seasoning on everything. The pad see ew? A touch of flavor. The Thai iced tea wasn't so bad but it was such a tiny portion for $5 I felt like I was being robbed! I ordered it without ice so maybe they decided to give me the amount that would be left without ice in it which if so? Petty. If that was the actual amount? Shameful. This was overall a disappointing experience.

I love taking people out to this spot because of the view. You can also take a ride on the jet skis before you eat your food. Make sure to come here during the sunset so you can get the best experience. I love the thai tea from this spot. The waiters are very respectful and will give you their best opinion on the food. If you go to rockaway beach make sure to check this spot out! The duck was good and the fried rice came in large portions. I was not disappointed.

After a long day at the beach we decided to spot here for dinner. The atmosphere is pretty nice as it's right on the water. Service and food was good. Bit pricey but I assume due to location. Nothing really stood out here other than the views.

Food was decent and they did a good job of being safe during Covid times. They can make it as spicy as you want so that is good. Service was fine. Came on a Saturday afternoon in December so it wasn't crowded. View was great. Worth a try when you are in the area.

Absolutely disgusting!!!! I will only recommend getting vegetables dishes because everything else is old. Last night I order the jumbo chicken... OMG!!!!! It tastes like it's been spoiled for months now and they just season it to mask the smell. When I send it back to the kitchen they try to give me an old shrimp dumpling as a replacement. One thing I love about seafood is that the smell will always tell you when it has gone bad. Seems like the owners are too greedy to throw away old/ spoiled food.

Good is always good at this place but service could be better. We stood in the doorway for at least 1/2 hour as the host took 3 or 4 takeout orders on the phone while we waited to be seated. Someone asked us if we were waiting to be seated so we thought they were going to seat us but then he told us to wait for the host, frustrating. Bottomline, if you're not in a rush or too hungry to wait, the food and ambience are good.

Food ok we were charge an extra feed for the kitchen service slow View is nice in the summer by the beach

Food is tasty, but the portion sizes for delivery orders are consistently TEENY. Mind you, most of the entrees are at least $20. I got the Thai Iced Coffee and Thai Iced Tea as well (each for $5) and the cups were so small they looked like they were intended for children (probably 8-10oz) --- more importantly, they were filled 3/4 of the way. For FIVE DOLLARS EACH? When you rip off your customers, it doesn't go unnoticed!

Second time back to Thai rock within a month! got to sit outside again and enjoy the amazing views. they take reservations so id beware when booking in the evening since they hold tables.loved the rock and 90s grunge they had playing. service was great. good selection of beer on draft, typical prices for craft beer. but the reason i came back were for the peanut and turnup dumplings. for a steep price of 10.00 you get 5 stuffed to the max, chinese soup dumpling style vegetarian dumplings. the last time i got them they came with sauce, this time they didnt. before i could ask for the sauce i thought i would try one, and let me tell you--they were great by themseleves. id also like to state the curry puffs are amazing. soft, flakey, and crammed with veggies and seasonings. perfect for an app or snack after the beach. cant wait to come back next beach season!

Came back on Friday 9/4/2020 and they redeemed themselves from the last time. The service was much better and the food was delicious. There wasn't the mass confusion from Last time. There were actual waiters and waitresses. I was very happy! Really disappointed with Thai rock tonight. I ordered a frozen piña colada and a mango salad with shrimp. Paid at the bar I was told to sit down with my number and wait for my number to be called of the loudspeaker. That's how they're doing things now. Waited patiently while everybody else around me was getting their food. I finally asked what was taking so long with a simple mango salad with shrimp? The hostess looked into it for me. They lost my order. She asked me if I had my receipt. I showed her my number and she said no she didn't need the number she needs the receipt. I found the receipt. Waited some more. She informed me they would expedite my salad. I, again stressed to her I wanted shrimp with the salad. She apologized and assured me I would be getting my order. It took so long I asked for them to make it to go, because I was really tired. Got home and of course my salad did not have shrimp. I must've said that I wanted a mango salad with shrimp at least five times to various people there. Very

The food never disappoints! The atmosphere is amazing. Makes you feel like you're on a vacation when sitting on the outside patio. Love coming here

I've been wanting to check this Thai spot out for awhile and finally made it. My friend met me there and arrived first and of course I am wandering around the restaurant right next door looking for her. LOL I'll get back to that other spot shortly. It was very confusing figuring out how to get to the outdoor dining to this place. They definitely need more signage in the front with arrows where to walk. When I arrived I was unimpressed with the ambiance. I am not sure what I was expecting but it seemed very blah. I know exactly what it was I had just left a jumping, nice music playing spot called Bungalow Bar right next door and wished I was over there. LOL I love waterfront restaurants but this one wasn't as charming. We ordered our food and both agreed the place was a bit pricey for Thai food. I ordered the lychee mojito and my friend had a ginger mojito and we both enjoyed them. For entrees, I order the chicken basil fried rice and my friend had a curry stir fry dish. (forgot the name) We agreed the food was good. We didn't like that they brought our food out in to go containers. We definitely understand COVIC times it just felt weird and kind of took away from the overall dining experience. The staff were friendly and service was prompt. We did enjoy the walk around the water views around the restaurant after dinner and watching people jet ski. With limited places with outdoor seating this is a cool spot to check out if you're in the area. However, my friend and I agreed we will return to check out the spot next door. LOL

The food is great here but the service is abysmal and the management treats local employees like complete garbage and god forbid they mess up your order and you ask for the correct item.

I was in the mood for Thai tonight and a friend found a place in the water we were hoping would have the outdoor seating available during this pandemic of 2020. Behold found this place next to Cross Bay Bridge by Beach 92nd st and Rockaway Beach blvd. Because of the pandemic, they were not open for sit down for another 2.5 weeks. The place is right next to Bungalow and upon arrival, you may think its a small place due to the small entrance. The place opens up in the back on the water. We placed our order by yelp and it said at least 30 mins before it would be done. We arrived there 45 mins prior to closing. There were a few people waiting for their pickup orders, and we decided to wait until they all left for social distancing. When we got in, Robert greeted us and let me tell you, he was very welcoming and gracious for us to come. They also prepared cocktails from the menu. Of course you are not allowed to drink outside, only for takeout. The lychee martini was to die for. Maybe I had not had one in a while with the lock down, but it was damn good. I had 2 of them and made me a happy camper. I ordered Tom Yum soup, fried calamari, mango salad and house fried rice with shrimp and squid. The calamari was not oily at all. The Tom yum was good and flavorful. The mango salad was really good, i almost went back for another one. The rice was not bad. May have been a little pricier than I expected. Brought it home to my son who left not trace of it and at 11pm. The drinks is what really made it. When I woke up the next day, no ill effects and certainly no headache so they use good liquor. I would certainly return to try more items on the menu, but i would definitely return for Robert who was just so open and welcoming. It also seemed most regulars who were picking up knew him well. What a great demeanor!

Don't come here hungry! My parents and I, three guests in total stopped by Thai Rock on Friday as we had frequently visited the restaurant in 2021 and remembered the food and vibe was great. How have things changed. The three of us stood near the register awaiting to be seated. A small line began to form behind us as there was no one to great or seat us. My dad had to flag down a waiter to seat us. After we were seated, we ordered and I went to the bathroom. There was no soap in the bathroom; not in the bigger bathroom and not in the communal sink. And from the looks of it, there hadn't been any soap IN A WHILE. If there is no soap for customers, that means there is no soap for wait staff either. YUCK. After a global pandemic, really? I returned to the table and awaited our food - and waited and waited and waited. We finally received our appetizer and it was cold. Just as a quick note, it was not crowded here at all. After the appetizer we finally received our food after waiting for about 30 mins after the appetizer. The food is good but the poor service and extremely long wait time before receiving your food coupled with the difficulty in parking, idk if this place is worth it.

Why go to Rockaway beach? I am going to let a couple of my more eloquent neighbors from Forest Hills field this one - Chewing out a rhythm on my bubble gum The sun is out and I want some It's not hard, not far to reach We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach Up on the roof, out on the street Down in the playground, the hot concrete Bus ride is too slow, they blast out the disco on the radio No, you can't beat the Ramones, and even with the Q52/53 converted over to SBS, it's a lengthy bus ride, made worse by the inconsiderate crowd - it was comical to see someone hail a cab to the bus stop with their beach gear and kids in tow. If you want a clean beach without shards of glass / driftwood (Brighton Beach or Coney island) and you can't drive to Jones Beach, Rockaway beach is your there, and there's a revival happening here, judging by the facial hair, tattoos and eateries with kale, avocado toast and organic free-range whatever in the area. You could call it "Williamsburg-by-the-bay". It's a 2 block walk from the Beach 90th subway station - it's a single block north to the waterfront, after all. See if you can spot the old Rockaways Municipal courthouse (currently under renovation) right on 91st, or those newish construction houses right next to the McDonalds. You might be tempted to grab something from Mickey D's, but save it for the desserts. Right next to the on-ramps for the Veterans memorial bridge, jutting out of the waterfront is a deck shared by two establishments. One of them happen to be Thai Rock. So why eat here? Well, look at a map of the area. It's roughly 6 blocks from the north to the south, a large chunk of it taken up by the slab-like apartment buildings across the street from the boardwalk, which gives this place a Eastern European collective housing flair - not much commercial spaces here. Now, there is a commercial area running down Rockaway Beach Blvd, but with the exception of Uma (Bukharian kebab joint) it's bodegas and local Vinnie pizzeria joints as far as the eyes can see until you hit Arverne or Rockaways Park (the Hamel Houses housing project is in the mid-80s, so what were you expecting, really). So your choices are the boardwalk concession stands (overpriced douchey millennial kibble)...and this place. This is the one with the live band and the bartender. Whatever notion that you have of getting the same thing as you do in Elmhurst (sizable Thai population) - very much a nope. You are not getting Arunee or Ayada quality food here. There are only 3 Thai joints that I am aware of in the Rockaways, a Chinese takeout counter that claims to do Thai food on Beach 116th (near the Rockaway Park Subway terminal), a place right next to the Beach 67th/Arverne-by-the-sea stop (seems inconsistent), and then there's this place, which is in the middle of the Irish Riviera. When it came to pricing - yeah, it's steep. I ordered a shrimp pad Thai, a chicken curry and a satay, and it's close to $65 with smallish portions. But since when is beachside food cheap out of a first world country, especially when/if there aren't much competition in the immediate area? You are here to rock out with some umbrella drinks and have a good time under the sun. Well, how was the food? Well, it's okay, and like the usual Thai joint in your neighborhood, neither terrible nor mind bogglingly great. Service can be rather indifferent, unfortunately - it's not like the bus boy comes in to refill your water glass nor would the waitstaff come by to check on you. The idea is sit on the waterfront lounge (or the outdoor deck) and watch the sun set (or see the live band play) while tucking into a plate of Pad thai. I would say that it's a place you should hit once during summer while on the Rockaways just for the ambiance, but don't make it your "regular". It's expensive. Besides, the truly good Thai places are in Elmhurst on the other end of the Q53 bus line, and it's worth waiting until later.

Another amazing dinner with a beautiful view! The Diner Club is a great deal if your local! This is best Thai food around!

LOVE LOVE LOVE THAI ROCK. Pricey, but I don't care. The Thai Curries are so delicious and I have never had a bad dining experience. I do take out 2x a month from this place. The food is great!

One of my favorite date mate local restaurants. Great views and even better food and drinks! Party can be a bit challenging depending on the day and time you get there. I'd recommend you trying this place at least once. I usually order: Chicken Pad Thai and Lychee mojito

Placed an order through UberEats and one of the dishes was completely wrong. Called Thai Rock at 820, and was told a driver would bring the correct dish as soon as possible. At 930 (an hour later) I called to check on the order, and I was told it's on its way. At 1000 Thai Rock called me and said the kitchen was closed, and they never made the order. They then asked if they could deliver it tomorrow!? Horrible customer service. They had more than enough time to correct the error, but chose not to. They made it ten times worse by lying and saying the order was being delivered. Wish there was a zero stars option.

First I called the restaurant to make a reservation they said first come first serve or you can reserve a table online so I did which cost me $10 for two people they missed lead me and said the place would be full because of a band was playing when I arrived at the restaurant it was practically empty so I really didn't need a reservation and they would not apply the $10 to my bill The food was not up to any good standard at all very overrated I ordered a pork chop which was advertised to be a thin seasoned pork chop but yet I got a slab of pork look like a grilled chicken cutlet simulated human flesh was disgusting I eat a lot of establishments and this is by far was the worst one I've ever been to and will never return if you're looking for for a good meal in a Thai restaurant this is definitely not the place

Horrible service as others have mentioned. Waitress (Renata) rushed us to order, pointed to the sign that said no exchanges or refunds when I was mentioning (without wanting a refund or even exchange) that the drunken noodles were not cooked fully, made fried rice that was bland and clumped together, and when I asked to see the menu where they automatically add tip, they gave me a different menu. I believe they add automatically for parties of 5 or more. The waitress was beyond rude, and felt annoyed to be working there. This was my first and last visit. You can get better Thai food anywhere else. The bill for 6 was $180 and we didn't order appetizers or drinks.

Thai Rock was one of my fave spots in Rockaway. But, today my friends and I had the worst meal. All dishes came out cold and had to be sent back to heat up! The Roti Massaman Curry was a thin soupy thing not resembling any Roti I've ever had. The chicken satay was fine. Side dishes of rice were cold, the Pad Broccoli was cold and we sent the Pad See Yew back to heat up! This made the shrimp overcooked and dry. In May, we raved about the food noticing the prices had gone up with the new ownership. So what happened in a few months. The place was empty on a beautiful Sunday fall afternoon?! I informed the owner/manager and she didn't seem like she cared very much. She actually suggested that the wind caused the food to be cold.m

My expectations might've been too high for this place but my overall rating is 3 stars. The curry puffs didn't have meat in it, which I generally look forward to. The tom kha soup (my favorite soup ever) had a bit too much of lemongrass and didn't taste like most tom kha soups to my dismay. The paste used in the green curry tasted rather thick. I asked for it to be spicy but it mild at most. It also didn't have any string beans, my favorite vegetable usually included in this sort of dish. The drunken noodles were fairly decent and if I were to visit again, I'd order the drunken noodles. The Thai iced teas fared well and didn't disappoint. The seating/dining area was nice. I'll give this place one more chance in the summer to experience the outdoor seating.

I used to love the food here. My favorites were the curry fried salmon ( they no longer make) and the thai peanut dumplings (a little pricey). These are delicious; but small portion I haven't enjoyed any other dishes. I was so disappointed they stopped serving the fried curry salmon. The view is nice and the staff is friendly.

Thai rock, oh Thai rock. How much do I love thee? Let me count the ways..... ok... maybe that was too much but this place is amazing! Lol. I have been here several times and at all different hours of the day - lunch , early dinner, and late dinner to be around for the live bands. Yup! I said live bands! Last night was probably my 5th or 6th trip here. I also love that this is a family run restaurant!! I love supporting a great mom & pop shop instead of a big box chain. There were 3 people in total for my group and we were seated right away. The waitress came around not even 5 minutes later for our drink order. Great service! I ordered the mild cashew nut sauce with shrimp and veggies from their sautéed section, guest #2 had the Chefs bowl with veggies and dumplings, guest #3 had pineapple and chicken fried rice with sautéed veggies on the side. Both also had a ginger cocktail. As the responsible DD, I sipped on ice cold water. Food came out maybe 10-15 minutes later and it was hot and smelled delicious!! The food was amazing!! Perfectly seasoned and just spectacular! The staff is also super nice there!! Always happy and pleasant folks! Last night there was even a surprise guest!! A baby seal was hanging out on the dock!!! During the summer they also have an entire outdoor area where there is a bar and music. If you have a boat you can even pull up and dock there for lunch!! Jet ski rentals also!!

Love all the vegetarian options!! I got the pad ginger with vegetarian "duck" and it was DELICIOUS. Drinks were great too!

Called Thai rock to make reservations for 2 on Saturday night, was informed they no longer take reservations for 2! So I made it 4 knowing I could fine another couple to join us. Friday with the heat and cooking myself like a steak on the beach I was not up to cooking but up to eating out. We decided to do a walk in Friday as it was just 2 of us. We waited less then 10 minutes and the hostess was so pleasant i was thrilled. Usually at some point my DINING experience starts to deteriorate BUT NOT THIS TIME! Our waiter OZ was a delight quick and pretty much on top of his game. I have nothing to complain about for the first time in years and only have good things to say We were seated without reservations quickly Staff was FABULOUS food always so good but that's worth repeating For an unplanned night out it was a 10+ It was such a GREAT DINING EXPERIENCE BRAVO THAI ROCK

I came last night with a few friends and we were amazed. Everything was spot on. I had the Chef's Bowl w/ shrimp and pork and it was delicious. Can't wait to come back again, especially after a long day down the block at the beach.
