Uncle Boons

A relative newcomer on the block, Uncle Boons is high-end Thai food served up in a basement space in Nolita. Its cool vibe seemingly oozes out of the walls, but what's more impressive is what's coming out of the kitchen. Along with a collection of tasty share plates, the charcoal grill at Uncle Boons leans heavily on Isan influence, turning out delicacies like pork and rice sour sausages, grilled blowfish tails and head-on prawns. The Thai rotisserie half chicken with fiery dipping sauces and green mayo salad has also quickly won the hearts of regulars.
