10Best Says

Authentic Thai reigns supreme at this casual Woodside kitchen, where walk-ins are welcomed with a friendly smile and the fare runs from Panang beef to catfish fried to a golden crisp. The vegetarian menu is nearly as long as the regular one, so order freely if you're off the meat. The interior is understated and lacks the flash and flair of the high-profile chains, but if you're looking for something to spice up your trip to Queens, this is the place. A word of advice: lately SriPraPhai regulars have complained about a lack of heat and flavor in their favorite dishes. If you like your dishes spicy, don't forget to ask your server for Thai hot.
