Family owned thai restaurant since 2008. Originally was a small thai-food supermarket; selling thai produces and goods. My mom was a chef, I had learned over the years, then I used to cooked for myself and ate at the supermarket, people always asked where I get it from. I said its home-cooked and they want me to cook for them. The rest is history.

Very disappointing experience, won’t be visiting again. I’ve visited here a few times over the years and really enjoyed it. I’ve had the massaman curry (average taste but very aesthetic) and summer rolls (bland but works well with the creamy sauce) that I enjoyed over a nice classy ambiance. Yesterday I drove 1.5 hours with special friends to give them the experience I enjoy. I really hyped it up, we were hungry and looking forward to it. Online it says they close after 9 but when I got there around 3:30, the moment we stepped inside they shooed us away saying they’re closed and to visit their smaller restaurant in Chelsea market. Well we go sit there (less aesthetic, loud disco music) and I try ordering my tried and tested items. Well despite it being summer in June, they didn’t have summer rolls. Everyone’s majorly disappointed at this second setback but they figure since we’re here let’s just order something. So we order the massaman curry. You’ll see an image attached with the floral vegetables of what I’ve always had, comes with a pita bread ($36~). And then you’ll see an image of what they served us yesterday. Completely different look, taste and presentation. Came with rice instead of bread. The menu was the same, item was the same so I ordered the same thing. When I show the server my picture and ask, they explain that original menu item was discontinued and they serve this knockoff instead. How misleading!! The menu should’ve been updated, there should’ve been signage somewhere to indicate items may differ but no nothing! And this dish was $18! Incredibly overpriced for what it is, didn’t taste good. Despite my negative experience, they offered nothing, no apologies or anything to compensate for my waste of time and horrible experience. I was so embarrassed in front of my friends. Imagine expecting a fine dining experience and getting takeout instead. I honestly should’ve just walked out of there but we paid for our uneaten food and left

I really loved it here especially the mango sticky rice and catfish salad. Very nice presentation on the sticky rice with a rose petal. The staff was also kind and patient. The atmosphere had warm lighting too!

We decided to eat here as it was one of the few places that was still open late in Chelsea Market without a long line.

Amazing place. If I could give it 10 stars I would. Never crowded. Never a wait. There’s two locations in Chelsea market. We are talking about the larger one next to the stairs, it sits back a bit. The first time we went in on a THURSDAY and I got the papaya salad with shrimp and chicken satay. Both super delicious. My other half got the Pad Thai and it was THE ABSOLUTE best we’ve ever had, to die for. Our waiter must have been Phu. Service was amazing.

A gem inside the Chelsea Market! The place was reserved by friend whom we’ve visited in NYC and I was delighted cause I haven’t eaten Thai food in a while. They occupied a huge area considering it’s inside the market; They can accommodate big group (17 persons) in short notice. I love the decor/ signage of Ayada; good ambience. Staff are great; fast service; food are delicious and with ample servings. This place was highly recommended by our NY friends and I totally agree with them.

Delicious food. Great service. Every dish’s taste was on point. Very authentic. Love that they have 2 nearby locations in Chelsea market, the waiter took us to a bigger one since we had a big group. The bathrooms were hidden tho, although I could find it, but my family had a hard time finding it because it blends in with the background

Stopped here Saturday evening. Husband had the catfish salad. We asked where the catfish was and they said they shave it down to crumbs then fry it and mix it into the salad.

Solid Thai place to go to in NYC! The pad thai was the best out of the three dishes we had, which included basil fried rice and red curry. The Thai iced tea was also just as good. Our server was super kind and really good about refilling water and noticing our requests. Overall a great experience!
