Somtum Der

New York

Thai Restaurant

$$$$

Originating from Bangkok, this beloved restaurant serves the same authentic Northeastern Thai cuisine (also known as Isan) right in Alphabet City. Complete with an assortment of dishes and flavors (including chilis, lime juice, palm sugar and fermented fish sauce), Somtum Der is warm and welcoming. The casual atmosphere has many modern fixtures, but is boldly reflective of traditional Isan in its use of utilitarian clothing and patterns representative of the region as decor.
