Service:
Exceptional service! The staff were so attentive, asking us about any allergies we might have.
Food:
The food was delicious! We ordered:
Steam Dumplings (tasty, but no crazy effect)
Pad Thai: 10/10
Drunken Noodles: 10/10
Cocktails were also great! We went with OBAO and Thai Basil Gin & Tonic.
Atmosphere:
For us it was not loud at all (as we read in other reviews). Like that also!
For me personally, that's the best Thai food I've ever had!

So delicious! We had a Christmas dinner at Obao and ordered Pad Thai and Drunken Noodles. I’d say it was the best I’ve ever tried! Definitely worth it!

Had the beef pho with short rib (for $32 which meant the short rib was $16, since the beef pho was $16). The pho itself was nothing remarkable, but boy the short rib was fantastic, the melt-in-your-mouth kind. I don't typically opt for this much red meat, but I suppose it was good enough that I didn't feel too guilty 🤣 (also, kind of needed the protein for a later workout 😄)
Despite the 5 stars short rib, still I give 4 stars overall for food.

The experience was marred by the fact that the waitress had a cold - was coughing and sniffing - and should not have been serving. Thankfully another server took over after she brought our drinks. Overall great food and good atmosphere.

Such a great experience dining at the OBAO. After a short 15-min wait, we were seated at a corner table with a sofa seat. The hostness was considerate enough to provide us thay seating after she saw that our daughter had fallen asleep on her stroller.
We were served by Han Ley. We got chicken and shrimp steamed dumpling appetizer, and Drunken noodles and Crispy Pork Belly for entree. Han Ley was nice and offered to take our family photo. The good was really good, the atmosphere was lively, and the staff were great! Highly recommend this place!

I had a great dinner with my boyfriend here. Baitong, our server, was excellent and very attentive. He fixed our uneven table before we even noticed, and the food and drinks were delicious.

Spacious place, good food options.
Got a mushroom steamed dumpling, it was very different, the filling was soft and nice.
The kimchee fries were good.
Drunken noodles were tasty, good quantity. Green chicken curry was average, good for 2 quantity. Crab fried rice, was simple, good crab meat and good quantity to share but was slightly expensive for $50.

Great location, great food, great service, we did have a remarkable evening so we decided to come back the day after during our short time in New York.

Cool vibe and busy place. Seated us right away and service was friendly and efficient. Food was great portions and tasted all good except the teenager did not like the fried rice 🍚. It was shared by the rest of the family and taken home to eat later. Good pho and got the meats. Other teenager said the best steamed dumplings 🥟 they have had. They were good.

Lovely spot to grab some good Vietnamese or Thai cuisine. Atmosphere was really good and this place always has a crowd so maybe try to reserve a table to avoid the wait. I really enjoyed the meals here. They give really hearty portion sizes and everything I had tasted delicious. I would definitely recommend checking it out.
