Many New York City residents will agree that authentic thai food is difficult to find amongst many restaurants that attempt to pass themselves off as the real deal. The Thai House, however, is highly rated and lives up to its name. With a wide variety of menu options including vegetarian ones, we recommend giving it a chance.
