Forest Hills locals are happy to have an authentic and delicious Thai restaurant in the neighborhood, and Nine Thai has quickly become the casual Thai eatery of choice for many. With friendly service and a diverse menu of hand-crafted fare, each meal is created from scratch for your dining pleasure. Their tom yum soup is raved about, and their pad Thai is compared to some of the city's finest. That's high praise for this humble eatery which is tucked away on a busy street. There's plenty more on the menu, so no matter if you're dining in or calling for take-out (or delivery), you can sample your way through the menu dish by dish. Traditional fish cakes, a classic papaya salad, curries with your choice of protein (including duck), noodle dishes, basil fried rice, and favorites like pra ram with shrimp, or ginger delight with beef, are all sure to please. Add a glass of wine or sake to your meal, and you'll be all set to enjoy a meal which the chef takes evident pride in creating.
