Don’t be fooled by the simple appearance of Sripraphai. The food here is as terrific as the prices. Crispy Dried Catfish, Chili-Pepper Salad, Fiery Beef Panang, Minced Pork - the list is endless. Get here early because its usually packed and they don't take reservations. Tip: Enjoy your wonderful Thai meal alfresco because it can really get cramped inside. If you are stuffed, pack some... more

They serve us red snapper in chili and basil leaves, which I did not order. So I told the waiter, that we didn't order the snapper.
Then she told us that we were wrong and we had ordered the snapper. When we told her (again) that we had not ordered it, so she said, with an attitude in her voice, "So u don't want this right? The kitchen is closed, so you still won't get what you want if I take... more

I've been a couple times, with larger groups and on dates and it was always a pleasant experience. The food is always good and honest - this place is pretty cheap - and never attempts to conjure fancy presentations, unlike many other - hipper - Thai restaurants in the city like to do. It is fairly authentic mainstream Thai, which is hard to find at this quality anywhere in the US and the menu... more

On my first visit, I was rushed by my waitress because they were "busy," told that several items were not available, and then had to wait 40 minutes for a dish that the waitress had insisted that I order, and that turned out to be an utterly generic chicken-cashew stirfry. I agree with some other reviewers that the experience here is probably much different if you are a regular than if you... more

Based on some of the reviews, I was expecting excellent food. My dish was a very average Panang. The sauce was quite oily and it was very mild, despite my request for spicy. I have had much better in most other Thai restaurants that I have been to. One of my companions had a very good beef dish. The other was served a crispy chicken dish that could not have held it's own against your... more

If this crispy catfish salad doesn't convince you to head out to Woodside, maybe you just don't like Thai.

Peter and I ate at Sripraphai last night. I think it’s been eight years since I’ve been going there. I remember when it was one room, with mirrors on one wall. I once saw a Thai customer pick up the sugar dispenser on his table and pour sugar all over his noodles. [...]

Look. I've been to Thailand, ate for a whole week the real Thai food – not the sterile restaurants in Bangkok – but in the countryside, where noone speaks english and you buy your breakfast and lunch for 50¢ in little plastic bags, and it's the best food you'll find in all of Thailand. Only one restaurant I've been outside Thailand is comparable to that, and it's Sripraphai in Queens. The far... more

Fantastic authentic thai food with an extensive menu. Your taste buds will certainly get a pleasant awakening. Service was not great and the decor is nothing to write about so I won't but you'll definitely want to eat out in the garden or the back part of the room. The front part is too brightly lit and the place is noisy but definitely worth going to and you won't feel it in the wallet. The... more

We've been to several Thai restaurants in Queens and Manhattan. Honestly, nothing compares to Sripraphai. Fresh spicy food, pleasant service and interesting deserts. Papaya salad with squid and shrimp is delightful. Pork with Thai eggplant and shrimp curry made me sweat. Greens with pork tasty and not spicy. Haven't found a bad dish yet. $1.50 tamarind desert will soothe your mouth. Service is... more

i knew this place when it was an undiscovered hole-in-the-wall, but I knew one day it would shine. The food is the best you'll ever find in N.Y. or probably in all the U.S.

Been here a few times to get the real scoop. On weekend evenings, expect a wait before sitting down, but not too long, say 10-15 mins. Tasty food, decent portions. Decor is nothing special. The rooms, loud and crowded. Some might say "festive"; others, too loud. Entrees are $7.50 to $14+. WATCH OUT for overcharges on your bill--they've done that to us every time we've gone. It's... more

Best Thai food ever, great prices, and after their renovation this place looks amazing..look forward to their garden in the spring, fresh flowers, and the staff are very polite...always a good experience to go there...everything on the menu is worth trying, the flavors of the food are very intense and they always leave you wanting to come back for more on the next day..

Had another great trip out there. Tried the crispy catfish salad, which I didn't really enjoy. Had the crispy watercress salad which was great, but not as good as its been in the past. The penang curry = as good as ever. Delicious. And I also tried the drunken sauteed noodles with beef for the first time. Excellent. Note: Takeout orders of the Penang curry are smaller (I think) than the regular... more

WOW! As good as I've heard and then some. This will likely go down as one of the best dinners I'll have in New York. The flavors and balance of ingredients were incredible. Truly an eye opening and mouth watering experience. A true wake-up of the senses.

Pronouncement Sripraphai New York City Entry #72

vealcheeks

In a city as varied and as disputatious as New York, to find unanimity on anything is as rare as coming upon a parking spot. Yet, as far as Thai restaurants are concerned, one name is on everyone's lips - even if that name is routinely garbled. Sripraphai, located in the heart of Woodside, Queens, a few blocks down from the Jackson Heights subway stop. One imagines that the staff keeps a list... more

I was helping Pat move from his Greenpoint apartment out to Boerum Hill. Along with his brother Jim, we loaded his CDs and books into boxes and drove them through the borough. Around two, whenever our mild hangovers started to wear off, we all went out in search of food. Jim suggested a new taco stand down by McCarren Park. I hadn't had a good taco in ages, so I quickly and optimistically agreed.

I love Sripraphai.  They treat me like family there, which is to say that the best waitress pokes fun at my limited Thai vocab and berates me for not visiting more often.  Eleven of my friends came out to help me celebrate on Saturday.  All the elements seemed to be conspiring against us: the cold October rain came in spurts, the 7 and G trains were not running properly, and it was completely... more

We had dinner at our friends house a couple of week ago.  They are both serious foodies.  When it comes to Thai food, they both said we must go to Sripraphai in Woodside because it is the closest thing they had tasted to the food in Thailand.
