Our first time dining here was nothing short of fabulous! From the moment we walked in, the host welcomed us with such warmth, kindness, and genuine charisma that immediately set the tone for a great evening. Our server was equally wonderful—friendly, attentive, and incredibly professional, making sure everything flowed smoothly.The food? Absolutely spectacular. Every dish was bursting with flavor, beautifully prepared, and served fresh. It was clear that a lot of care goes into both the recipes and the presentation. The Crabmeat Fried Rice, Pad Thai, and Massaman Curry were standouts—delicious, comforting, and authentic.As first-time guests, we couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to Thai cuisine. The combination of outstanding food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere made this experience truly memorable. We left grateful, satisfied, and excited to return.Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a genuine, delightful Thai dining experience. Thank you to the entire team for making our evening so special!

I think this might be the second best Thai food I've had in NYC. Now, I've been to a lot of different Thai restaurants in the city. Most of the Manhattan ones were mid, and the Queens spots were always popping. But Saranrom Thai just gets it, dude. The atmosphere is very modern and chic - they have lots of cute and artistic ornaments and decorations. The staff are super welcoming and extremely attentive. The only negative would be that the space itself is a little cramped and fairly narrow, but they're making the most of the limited real estate.We ordered their mango catfish salad, duck basil, drunken noodle, and the shrimp and glass noodle bowl. The catfish salad and drunken noodle honestly blew me away. That was probably the best drunken noodle I've ever had, no BS. The vegetables were cooked perfectly, the flavors were strong and poignant, and the portions were large and filling too. Best part - everything came out to under $100 for three people, and we were stuffed to the gills afterwards.Seriously, do yourselves a favor, and come here. Make sure to get there early because the wait-list fills up extremely fast. I can see why they were on the Michelin guide for four years in a row. Another standout restaurant in Queens and why this is THE best borough in NYC for food.

Went there during lunch specials and had a great time. Was meaning to try this place out for so long but just didn’t had the chance to but we finally made it. The staff were super welcoming and friendly and very attentive too and the food was the best Thai food I had in a while. We devoured everything and the mango sticky rice was heavenly( I had mango sticky rice in Bangkok but they had the best ones). The mango was so ripe and sweet and the rice was so moist. Still dreaming about it. Would definitely be going back!!!

Phenomenal. My husband and I are avid Thai food eaters and were blown away. Every dish was outstanding, the vibe was fun, the servers were friendly and the price was right. What a gem. We will definitely be returning!

Have heard a lot about Saranrom and it lived up to all the hype. Came here with a party of 3 and ordered 2 appetizers, a salad, and two entrees. Not only were the portions huge but they were also all so so delicious. The moo ping stole the show, it was so tender and well seasoned- perfectly sweet and salty. We got the miang ka-na which was a little too sweet for us but loved how vinegar-y and bright the flavors were. The yum pla duk fu (catfish and mango salad) was the best - loved the tangy flavor and the textures. The entrees were clam with basil sauce and the pineapple curry duck. They were both amazing, semi similar in terms of taste profiles of the curries. The duck was a little more citrusy - the meat was very well cooked. Prices are beyond reasonable , food is amazing, quantity is more than enough, and the staff are incredibly kind and attentive. (Our server Mia was the best!!!)I will say we booked via google and it seemed like the system didn’t go through to the restaurant itself so would be wary of that. The staff and owner are incredibly sweet though and sent a sticky mango rice!
