Everything we ordered off the menu was absolutely delicious. The staff is wonderful and our server was very attentive. I accidentally leaned onto my plate with my white shirt and she immediately got me napkins to help clean off the spot without me asking. Will definitely be back! I’ll definitely be back

The food was absolutely delicious. The chicken green curry was out of this world and the Thai Iced Tea was so refreshing. Service was on point as well! Definitely making this a staple spot in my book of Thai spots in Brooklyn!

Incredible vibe to this place, and the best pad see ew I’ve ever had! We were in and out within 40 minutes, the food was quick and service was very good.
The dumplings are worth getting once, but there are many other dishes worth trying here.
Highly recommend the pad see ew & softshell crab curry

Amazing royal Thai spot in Williamsburg!
Royal Pad Thai has excellent wok hei, Gaeng Puu crab curry is fragrant & great with rice. Crispy Larb Pla branzino tossed in fresh lime herbs hits different. Shrimp cakes, crab fried rice & purple dumplings are all fantastic. Nice ambiance for dates, big portions, will come back!

Have had this saved in my restaurants list for a while and strolled in after a gallery opening down the street since my friends and I needed a bite. I expected it to be good but this place is beyond deserving of all the 5 star reviews. On top of the impeccable service and cozily intimate yet refined ambience, the food is stellar. Everything was flavorfully seasoned and cooked perfectly while the presentation alone is enough to keep you coming back for more. Chor Muang (purple flower shaped dumplings) was a highlight of the meal for obvious reasons. Truly one of New York’s greatest authentic Thai food experiences. Cannot recommend enough.

I discovered Kaew Jao Jorm by chance while in Williamsburg, and it turned out to be a wonderful Thai dining experience. The restaurant focuses on Royal Thai cuisine, and the dishes feel refined with well-balanced flavors and layered spices without being overly heavy.
The highlight for me was the Pad Kee Mao. The broad rice noodles had an amazing texture, soft yet slightly chewy, unlike most versions I’ve tried. The seafood was fresh, especially the shrimp, which were tender and paired beautifully with the basil and chili aromatics.
The Yum Som O (pomelo salad) was also excellent. The pomelo segments were juicy and refreshing, mixed with mint, lemongrass, and kaffir lime leaves. The chili lime dressing added a bright acidity that balanced the natural sweetness of the fruit.
We also ordered two curries. The soft-shell crab curry had a crispy coating while the crab meat remained tender inside, soaking up the rich curry sauce that practically begs to be eaten with rice. The roasted duck curry with lychee and pineapple had a subtle sweetness that brightened the coconut curry and created a very nice balance between richness and freshness.
Overall, the dishes felt thoughtful and well-executed. From the refreshing salad to the flavorful curries, everything had great depth. Definitely a place worth visiting if you enjoy Thai cuisine in NYC.

Incredible Thai restaurant. The flavors and colors of the dishes were memorable. The service was also very attentive and we loved the homeyness of the how they serve (unlimited) rice on your plate.

Firstly, as soon as you walk into the place, you feel like royalty! It’s a cozy space but very well decorated, you can tell the design was carefully thought through. Besides the decor of the place, the presentation of the food was also great.
I had the purple flower dumplings which had a chicken and peanut filling that was delicious with the perfect hint of sweetness. Also, the lump crab meat salad was perfect as I wasn’t too hungry and came recommended by my waitress, Amy, as her favorite. The salad had a perfect savory and sweet combo with the grapes and tomatoes. It was a bit on the spicy side for me but still very flavorful. I’m not a fan of spicy food so Amy asked them not to top it with chili as they normally do, which I was very grateful for. Amy also recommended the Thai Tea which happens to be one of my favorites, definitely didn’t disappoint.
Amy’s service was impeccable and we had a great conversation about my visit to Thailand and the foods I enjoyed while there. Highly recommend dining here!
