What is Worth Choosing

For New York locals in the Westchester area, Sambal Thai & Malay is a top-tier choice for several compelling reasons. The single greatest draw is the combination of its **stunning Hudson River location** and its **consistently high-quality, authentic fusion cuisine.** Dining on the outdoor patio or the rooftop while watching the sunset is, by itself, a worthwhile experience that elevates the meal far beyond a typical restaurant visit.

The food, however, is the main event. It is worth choosing Sambal for the opportunity to explore beyond the usual Thai menu. While the **Noodles (CLASSICS)** like **Pad Kee Maow** and **Pad See Ew** are excellent and prepared to perfection, the true value lies in the **Chef’s Special Entrees**.

For poultry fans, the **Sesame Chicken** and the popular **Thai Ground Chicken N Basil** are exceptional, while seafood lovers will appreciate the market-priced **Branzino** and the decadent **Seafood Pad Cha**.

Do not overlook the beverage menu. The extensive and creative bar, known for its **Great cocktails**, offers signature drinks like the **Lychee Martini** and the **Basil Gin Smash** that perfectly complement the bold, spicy, and aromatic dishes. Furthermore, the commitment to all guests is evident in the inclusion of various dietary choices, ensuring that a **Vegan** or **Vegetarian** diner will find options that are equally delicious and flavorful, such as the **Crusted Triangle Tofu** or the popular **Chive Cake** starter.

Ultimately, what makes Sambal Thai & Malay the right choice is its total package: a welcoming, women-owned business that delivers impeccable service, a beautiful setting, and a consistently delicious, expansive menu of authentic Thai and Malay cuisine, making every visit a memorable occasion for the discerning New York palate.
