ThaiHolic Replaces Manee Thai At 372 Myrtle Avenue

The aptly named ThaiHolic is open for business and already charming customers with the family-owned restaurant’s authentic and affordable cuisine that they describe as embodying “country, tradition, [and] simplicity.”

They opened Valentine’s Day weekend, moving into the former Manee Thai space at 372 Myrtle Avenue, thus ensuring that area residents and workers (us included!) in need of their Thai food fix still have it (including great lunch specials!).

“Culinary arts is about enjoying nature’s bounty in different, innovative ways,” they write on their website. “So, it only makes sense that our menu is a mixture of new creative ideas, and cultural influences that have embedded itself in Thailand for centuries. When it comes to dinning, we want more for you, since you deserve it.”

The Thai-riffic menu includes now-common American Thai dishes like green papaya salad ($7), Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, Basil Fried Rice, and curries — Massaman, green and red ($10/$11) — alongside less recognizable items like Thai marinated pork ribs ($7/$13), Hawaiian duck curry ($16), beef short-rib kabocha curry ($15), spicy white fish ($15), and desserts ($6) like Thai coffee creme brulee and baked pumpkin custard.

ThaiHolic is open from 11am-11pm on weekdays and 11am-11:30pm on weekends. For delivery ($10 minimum), call 718-222-9992.
