Malii Gramercy

This is honestly one of my favorite Thai restaurants in New York. The atmosphere is bright, cozy, and beautifully designed, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal. Every dish has something special about it, and the presentation is absolutely gorgeous. Whether you’re catching up with friends or coming here for a date night, it’s such a lovely place to spend time. I’ll definitely be bringing more friends here in the future. Highly recommend! ✨🍽️

The amount of protein provided could be more in the creamy tom yum but the flat rice noodles had the perfect chew and smooth texture. The yuzu margarita was refreshing and if you prefer citrusy cocktails, it was worth the cost at happy hour. In total I was charged around 34.

The lychee martini was veryyyy good and I’m particular about martinis and cocktails (hate when they are too sweet)! The guava spritz was also refreshing and delicious. I thought the food was okay- The butterfly pea dumplings (Cho muang) were pretty yummy and a cute/different experience. The pineapple fried rice with chicken was average and lacking in pineapple.

Servers were very friendly and quick with service. The food was delicious! We came here for a quick bite off their happy hour of $9 apps. We got the wings(4pcs) and Duck buns(2pcs) which were both delicious! We also had the Tod Mun which were also delicious with the sweet plum dip. Would absolutely recommend. The oysters for $2 each were huge! They were very neutral tasting but the toppings really made the flavor. Also a side of Pandan Coconut Sticky rice never hurts anyone! It was sweet, warm and a wonderful side for the apps. I definitely had a wonderful food venture here and I hope you do too!

The food was absolutely phenomenal every bite was full of flavor, perfectly seasoned, and truly unforgettable. The atmosphere was just as impressive, beautifully set and inviting. Everything came out incredibly fast with no wait at all, which made the experience even better. To top it off, the chef, Lisa, personally came over to introduce herself she was amazing and added such a special touch to the whole experience.

Omg the food was so amazing from the appetizers to the main dishes and the dessert was sooooo good. We went 30mins after they opened and There was barely any wait time. The service was amazing and the staff was so friendly and chef Lisa made every meal to perfection . 10/10 you have to visit.

Had dinner at Malii Thai Kitchen in Gramercy and honestly everything we ordered was solid — not a single miss. The restaurant itself has a cozy but modern vibe, perfect for dinner with friends or a date night. Service was attentive and the pacing of dishes was great.<br>Definitely one of the better Thai meals I’ve had in NYC. Would come back again.

Malii Gramercy was such a great experience. The CHO MUANG was absolutely amazing—so unique and beautifully made, nothing like I’ve had anywhere else. The crab fried rice was loaded with crab meat and tasted so fresh and flavorful. We ended with the sizzling roti for dessert and it was incredible—the perfect sweet finish to the meal. Everything was so good and well executed. Definitely coming back!

Malii Gramercy lived up to its 4.8 rating with a beautiful ambiance and impeccable food. We tried the $119 Lovebirds set and every dish impressed—the Tom Yum wings were crispy and perfectly spiced, the Lemongrass Sea Bass was flaky and flavorful, and the Pad Thai Boran wrapped in an egg net was both stunning and delicious. Added the minced beef basil rice (a must-try). Cocktails were lovely too. Cozy, aesthetic, and ideal for a date night. Highly recommend!

It was my first time coming here after being recommended on social media and it did not disappoint! Of all the Thai restaurants I’ve tried, this one probably takes a top spot. The flavors were well-balanced from start to finish. Highly recommend the papaya salad, steamed sea bass, and crab fried rice. For dessert, the Thai tea sizzling roti was a unique mix of savory and sweet. 10/10 recommend!!

Malii Gramercy is a great spot for Thai food in Manhattan.<br><br>We ordered several dishes and everything was well executed with bold, balanced flavors. The Shrimp Pumpkin Curry was rich and comforting, with tender shrimp and creamy pumpkin in a fragrant red curry. The Tom Yum soup was bright and refreshing — properly sour and spicy, not watered down.<br><br>The Lychee Duck Curry was a standout: crispy roasted duck paired surprisingly well with lychee and pineapple, giving a nice sweet-savory contrast. The Crispy Sea Bass was perfectly fried with a crunchy exterior, topped with a fresh and spicy mango salad.<br><br>The Pad Thai Boran felt more traditional than most — not overly sweet, great wok flavor, and wrapped in a delicate egg net. For dessert, the Thai Tea Sizzling Roti was a fun and satisfying finish.

I recently had a meal here with friends and the food was delicious! They have classic dishes but also many amazing signatures. I had the pumpkin fries (winter special), roti massamun, shrimp mango salad, cho muang (instantly a new favorite), tom kha, lychee duck curry, crab fried rice, mango sticky rice, and the Thai tea sizzling roti. There's more from the menu I wanr to try in the future like the sea bass! Definitely recommend visiting!

Came here mainly for the pumpkin fries and Thai milk tea dessert, and they were both worth it. The pumpkin fries are sliced very thin and fried crispy without being heavy or greasy—super fragrant and easy to finish by yourself. The clay rice was also solid, with pork, Chinese sausage, and egg cooked separately so each flavor really stands out; the rice itself is aromatic and not oily. Dessert was a pleasant surprise too—the Thai milk tea ice cream wasn’t overly sweet and was very refreshing. The location is a bit out of the way, but the space is comfortable with warm lighting and a relaxed vibe, perfect for sitting, chatting, and taking your time with the meal. Overall, a nice spot in Gramercy for a cozy, laid-back Thai dinner.

Great Thai spot in Gramercy with an excellent weekday happy hour (11:30am–5pm), especially the $2 oysters which were fresh and flavorful. We loved the shrimp mango salad for its refreshing sweet-and-spicy balance, and the crab fried rice was generous with real jumbo lump crab meat. The steamed whole sea bass was tender, aromatic, and full of classic Thai flavors. Drinks were solid too — the yuzu margarita was bright and refreshing, and the lychee martini went down very smoothly.

We’ve been meaning to try this place and glad we finally did. They specialize in 'Royal Thai Cuisine,' and the dishes are not only beautifully presented but also delicious.<br><br>Must-Try Dishes:<br>Pad Thai Boran<br>Wrapped in an egg net and topped with huge shrimp (lobster tail size!), the noodles are perfectly springy, and the sweet-sour balance is excellent.<br><br>Steamed Sea Bass with Lime: The fish is super tender, drenched in a classic Thai sour-spicy sauce. Easily the best sour-spicy dish we’ve had recently.<br><br>Crab Fried Rice: The rice grains are perfectly separated, and they are incredibly generous with the crab meat<br><br>Clay fried rice:<br>Great portion and variety of proteins including sausages, shrimps, pork…Also love the mushrooms and chestnut touch!<br><br>Cho Muang:<br>These blue/purple dumplings are a classic, savory palace snack.<br><br>Their mocktails are also pretty and reasonably priced.
