Time Out has crowned this Williamsburg spot the best Thai restaurant of 2025
Briefly

Last year, NYC lost a beloved Thai restaurant, prompting reflection on the city's rich Thai culinary scene. With diverse regional specialties from Isan dishes to khao mun gai, New Yorkers continue to show their passion for Thai food. Kru in Williamsburg emerged as the top Thai restaurant, gaining acclaim for its vibrant dishes and dedication to challenging classic recipes by chefs Ohm Suansilphong and Kiki Supap. Other notable mentions include several restaurants in Queens specializing in unique regional offerings, highlighting the breadth of Thai cuisine in the city.
Husband-and-wife chefs Ohm Suansilphong and Kiki Supap bring a vibrant revitalization to 100-year-old Thai recipes; unapologetic about spice and flavor.
Every time I eat at Kru, it makes me feel energized and excited about the future of Thai food.
Queens dominated the category for top Thai cuisine. Out of the five in the borough, four reside in Elmhurst.
Kru's 'spicy, bold [and] innovative flavors' made it a standout, according to our writer Ali Domrongchai.
