    Some of the best Thai in NYC. Duck salad is incredible, spicy & herbaceous. Also: coconut soup w/ fish, turmeric sea bream, pork shoulder. Khao soi is well balanced.

    Legit Thai, maybe more adventurous menu that their “father” restaurant. If something says “spicy,” believe that. The “brutally spicy” item is a spiritual journey, to say the least. Duck salad too.

    All great: chicken skewers, duck laab, and khao soi, fried coconut milk cakes, green curry. I'd skip kua kling in favor of other, tastier dishes. BYOB for now, so come with beer or an acid heavy wine.

    Authentic Thai, but for a place that requires u to show up at 5:30 pm for dinner, it’s not THAT good. Decent khao soy.

    The pig’s tongue is lovely and the duck salad’s heat CREEPS up on you (but is damn tasty). My favourite thing on the menu is the curried rice with pork skin 🔥

    Best Thai restaurant in NYC. It’s a fight to get the dish you want coz the waiter would assume you are the average American who can’t handle flavors and try his best to talk you out of ordering it lol

    It is spicy (sometimes crazy spicy), but not to feign authenticity. Menu is casual yet WOW in its selection (fried coconut cakes, stingray soup, etc). Far more approachable vs Pok Pok or Uncle Boons.

    Order the kua kling, brisket soup, and rice noodles. Bring your own beer or wine as Ugly Baby currently doesn’t charge a corkage. Leer más

    I like this place but I can’t help feeling the spice level is turned to 11 as some kind of statement about authenticity. Duck laab inedibly hot. Kao Tod Nam Klook (rice salad) my fave dish.

    Everything is spicy, but the spiciness level really varies — a mild spicy one time was much spicier than a medium spicy next visit!

    As traditional as Thai food can get with its rich flavors and spiciness with the elegance of unique dishes you won’t find in a lot of Thai restaurants around the area.

    Don’t fool yourself thinking you can handle spicy food. This is another level, specially the green chicken curry. Ask for a salad, rice or cucumber as a side.

    Best KHAO SOI I had outside of Thailand, but beware, it is really really spicy! :)

    Incredible flavors that are incredibly spicy, come prepared. Wish I could've tried everything but loved the dishes we had: Khao Soi and the shrimp/squid

    Laab (duck salad), Kao Tod Nam Klook (curry rice), and Kang Kua Supparod (mushroom, pineapple 🍍 curry) all super delicious! Can’t wait to come back!

    Michelin restaurant in the making. Get there before 630p to make sure you can get a table. Two words: sea bream!

    Truly authentic Northern Thai food. Get delivery or expect to wait. The spicy dishes are not for the faint of heart (but still delicious)!

    Fantastic, affordable Thai food. Must order the khao soi. The ‘brutally hot’ beef dish is no joke

    Live a little and try some fun stuff - sea bream and durian sticky rice. Nobody comes here for pad Thai.

    Delicious Thai food in a cozy setting. Most dishes are quite spicy though so you may need to load up on the Thai iced tea.

    You can tell by the location that they are not trying to make the food accessible but the spice level reaches almost that of novelty. The food is good but it is hard to finish a dish because of it.

    Khao soi & Kang Kanoon were very delicious. 🥵 food is spicy, by even southeast asian standards. Order the Thai ice tea... b/c you will freaking need it.

    Authentic flavor hindered by unnecessary spiciness. I eat extra hot all day everyday, but Ugly Baby is too hot.

    Intensely spicy duck salad- pair it with a much-needed Thai iced tea so you don’t lose your tongue.

    Super spicy but delicious. Ask the waiter to give you tips on level of spice. Assume medium is nuclear

    There's spicy Thai food and then there's Ugly Baby. The level of spice is otherworldly. Our server tried to tell us to order different items, but could not adjust the heat level.
