About Pongsri Thai Restaurant

A staple on the Thai cuisine world map!

In 1972, the leading Pongsri Thai Restaurant launched its' first venue in the soul of Chinatown, New York City. At that time, countless people questioned how the restaurant could contest with the neighborhood’s plethora of Chinese cuisine. Over twenty years later, the restaurant is still standing in its' original location, and has since progressed to open two additional restaurants throughout Manhattan. The community knows Pongsri’s places as well as they know Thai food.

Khun Pongsri and her husband Khun Prasit Tangchakkrachai began serving authentic Thai food from the beginning, and have continued to do so making them successful in the restaurant industry. Over the years, customers have enjoyed the restaurant's cuisine at each location, including several famous guests such as movie stars, prime ministers and ambassadors. “Pongsri” even catered to the royal families, Her Majesty Queen Sirikit the Queen of Thailand, and many royal princesses during state visits and private holidays.

It is easy to say that a Thai restaurant as popular as Pongsri is a staple on the Thai cuisine world map.
