Q2 Thai

Q2: Quality and Quantity. We Understand Thai Spicy

  • $6.95 Lunch Specials
  • Free Delivery; no MSG added
  • Holiday Prix Fixe Menu

Restaurateurs M & P have created a new culinary formula for Thai cooking. Q2 = Quality x Quantity. Every dish boasts large portions at agreeable prices and proves that the best Thai food doesn't have to come from mom-and-pop shops.

Q2's decor brings some retro-sleek flair to Ninth Avenue, but there's nothing old school about Q2 Thai.This casual midtown eatery is every bit avant-garde American in design as it is traditional Thai in taste. Under the supervision of co-owner and Executive Chef Koh (whose restaurants include Hell's Kitchen Aceluck and Aura), the kitchen puts out authentic entrees and memorable specials packed with herbs and spices like basil and kefir leaves, lemongrass and galangal. The clarity of four flavors is so sharp and robust that you can taste sweet and sour, salty and spicy all at once. This palatable mingle is a cornerstone of Q2 Thai. Full bar license.

I went with my boyfriend because he had never had Thai food before. We ordered the sampler appetizer for 2 and had fun trying the different appetizers. We especially loved the calamari, the spring roll, and the shrimp roll. I had a delicious mai tai (of course it was as expensive as each of our meals). Then we each got an entree, and had fun picking off of each other's plates. The portions were fairly large and filling, and very good. All together we paid only about $45 so it was not too bad. Plus, the weather was really good and so they opened up the streetside wall, so it was like we were sitting outside since we were seated right by there. The atmosphere was nice and our water glasses never got before half-full before they were refilled - very good service. We will probably go back there to try some more things on the menu, overall it was a very nice dinner. I only wish they had offered us dessert before they brought us the check!

Pros: nice atmosphere, big portions, good food, good prices, fair service

Cons: they didn't offer us dessert before bringing the check!

I was actually on citysearch trying to find a good Thai place to go to, and figured might as well give Q2 Thai a try. As soon as my boyfriend and I arrived, we were seated promptly. This place was awesome. Although it was quite small, it had a great chic look to it. Our food was good. We ordered two appetizers, two entrees, three drinks, and dessert. And the bill was only 32 bucks. Not bad at all! Staff was really nice and always checked on us. And the bathroom was CLEAN! Ive always had bad experiences in bathrooms at restaurants in Manhattan, so I peeked it and was relieved. I was amazed on how clean it was. But I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. Great food, service, and atmosphere.

Pros: Service, Food, Fried Ice cream

Cons: Nothing!
