Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Noodles are the star at this Thai East Village gem that got raves from Eater and the New York Times after it opened in 2020. You'll find them in a host of regional dishes like the spicy ba mii pu (dry crab noodles) and chicken khao soi. Pair them with equally exciting cocktails like the tequila and tamarind syrup-based Pay-Thai in a neon-lit space that'll make you feel you're at one of Bangkok's famed street-food markets.

    Overall the food was good, but the service was horrible. Messed up our order then tried to argue with us about it. Food came out 15 minutes apart. No explanation for apology and not checking in on us. I’ve been a server for years and typically have empathy for servers but I’ve never felt so unwelcome at a restaurant.

    My wife and I went to Soothr for our anniversary and it was a great experience. The food is warm and comforting and is so well seasoned and fresh that it’s hard to believe that it comes out of the busy kitchen that serves such a popular restaurant. The service was fast and attentive the only knock is that during the winter their semi outdoor seating is not warm/insulated enough, besides that 10/10

    The food was exceptional! The service quick and easy… it was just TOO COLD WHERE WE WERE SEATED In the very back and the tables on either side of us had heaters overhead for those tables but NOT our table! Would NEVER BE SEATED IN THAT BACK AREA AT ALL! The ambiance in the front and the Bar area would have been much better. Looking forward to returning again!

    This cozy spot on the lower east side is very trendy with its gem named cocktails and seasonal menus. It is clearly incredibly popular as tables turn over quickly and there is never an empty seat. The food comes quickly and is deeply flavorful. The menu consists of dishes that can be harder to find, even in a cultural hub like NYC. I do wonder if lunch service is a little less bustling as at times I found it difficult to hear my dinner partner. I also wish they would tell you about the QR code for the food menu as it is on a physical drinks menu and that’s a bit confusing. Overall I’m glad I made it to Soothr and look forward to trying their sister restaurant Sappe soon.

    Food was amazing. Service could have been better. Server didn’t touch table and service had to be flagged down after multiple attempts. Everyone seemed to have blinders on. Overall delicious meal but service could improve to be in alignment with the reputation of food.
