Every season, Muse develops a menu that preserves the rich flavors of authentic Thai cuisine while adding the chef’s creative elements to create Thai-style tapas that suit a wide range of palates in this loving neighborhood. Welcome yourself in and allow us to accommodate you at our The BEST Thai Restaurant and Cocktails Bar in Brooklyn.
We were in the neighborhood of Fort Greene, Brooklyn for exploring new bakeries and randomly visited Muse Thai for dinner.
The decor is simple and bright with cozy ambiance and lots of seating. However, it’s crowded during the peak on weekends so we highly recommend to make a reservation in advance.
It’s overall delicious with satisfying portion and reasonable price. Our favorites were the peanut dumplings and their signature noodle bowls. The broth of Muse Bay is light but flavorful with 3 different proteins. The taste of Khao Soy was super rich and creamy.
I would like to give my five stars to this authentic Thai food with a good atmosphere and taste. First of all, its decoration and atmosphere are particularly good, and secondly, the service staff are also relatively professional. Finally, the amount and taste of Thai food can meet my expectations, although the duck noodles are slightly sweet.
I really enjoyed the crispy egg. My wife and I are obsessed with pad krawpow kai dow and will always try it in every Thai to compare notes. This one was a solid effort. They shorted us on the spice level, when a person asks for Thai spicy they mean it! But the food was delicious. Only thing that could have been better was the coffee cocktail, it was not very tasty.
Walked in around 6:30 on a Friday night and was seated at the bar, which is a great spot especially if you’re dining solo. Service was amazing — they took my order and grabbed my drink right away. I ordered the Tonkatsu and it was great; flavor profile was delicious. The staff were very friendly and engaging. Would highly recommend!
This place from start to finish was amazing with a warm old school/ holiday ambience. Imagine sitting in your living room on a porch on a nice day with nice music and food. The Thai food was all fresh and the service was great. The food came out fast and prompt. Our waitress was attentive and informative. I had the drunken noodles with crispy shrimp and my friend had the pad Thai which were both delicious but a tad bit Spicy which was good. If you don’t like spice tell them to make it less spicy. We also had the calamari and wings. All in which we’re good. We followed our lunch with with dessert which was paired with a sticky rice with mango and the flavors were out of this world. I’ll definitely will recommend to anyone in the area !!! FRESH FRESH FRESH . With the culture of THAI ! Thank you all for wonderful service
I found this place when I was pregnant, my baby is 3 now, I can still taste every plate of food I’ve had. Food is a 10, service is a 10. Even if they might not understand at times, they take their time to understand exactly what you want. Staff is just sweet as ever. I’ve ate at another Thai restaurant down the street and it was NOTHING like it. The best thing to get is shrimp rolls, Thai ice tea, oh yeah the lychee drink is so delicious 🤤 the crab rice is bomb as well, just real spicy…you can get it without the heat. Just know if you do…lol your mouth would be on fire. I introduced my whole family to this restaurant. I can’t wait to have a date there soon. I hope their service never change except get better and better!!!
Great food and great service
Such a nice place to have some authentic Thai food. The setting is real nice and classy and the service is so friendly and welcoming! Thank you Muse.
Great food and service!
just stumbled upon this spot. everyone on the staff was kind and helpful. the food was delicious !! we got the khao soy and pad thai. the food came out so fast. the ambiance is very romantic and chic. would 100% come back
Curry chicken and mango salad were amazing!
Great food. The vs wings are really good and let you taste both flavors in case you can't decide. The drunken noodles were also very good and had just the right amount of spice.
I’ve eaten at plenty Thai restaurants, but none of them compared to this one. The Thai iced tea was probably the best I’ve ever had, other than in Thailand. The pineapple fried rice with shrimp was amazing and delicious. The steamed chicken dumplings were jampacked with chicken, unlike other restaurants that give you more of the actual dumpling itself with very little filling. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves Thai food and I will definitely be returning.
Absolutely the hidden gem in the heart of Manhattan. 💯 authentic Thai Cuisine, I’m obsessed with massaman here, just MEET my expectations.
You have to check out MUSE Curry & Beef Rib, no matter the seafood mix or beef ribs, everything was on point.
MASSAMAN = EVERYTHING. Super Rich as expected.
Honestly, is the first Thai Spot did not order any desserts, because we were SO FULL. Will definitely come back many time for trying everything and pretty cocktails 🍹
Great place! We go there with friends! Delicious and fresh food!
Yummy place!
Delicious noodles. Also liked the wok chicken with spicy basil sauce. Loved the service, too; super friendly.
Great neighborhood joint for easy thai food that comes with friendly service. Good match for weeknight dinner or lunch!
Loved our meal here! Friendly service and very attentive! We had the Tom yum soup, red chicken curry and Thai basil tofu. Tom yum is spicy and will clear out your sinuses. Food all very good!
The food was fantastic and the servers were incredibly kind!
This is an easy go-to place when craving some of the best Thai food in Brooklyn. Highly recommend this cozy place and friendly staff.
Best Thai food in the city. Legit better than any I’ve had.
Great food. Accommodating for families with small kids.
Great food
good environment and attentive service. had lava fish it was good.
Love this place the atmosphere is wonderful. The spirit of the staff is incredible.
I’ve been going to this restaurant since 2014/2015. The food is amazing and so is the service!
I like the food very fresh the atmosphere is great the service is good the employees are friendly I've have eaten inside the restaurant and also take out the complaint I have is with the street fried rice which is supposed to come with egg scallion and onion the first order had limited eggs limited scallions the second order had just chicken and onion and I understand the egg situation I asked for extra scallions and they said they couldn't do extra but if the order says eggs scallions and onion and you're not giving eggs why can't I have extra scallions if you're going to take a item out then you should replace it with something so if you're no longer giving eggs and scallion it should be represented in the menu
This is my favorite Thai place in Brooklyn! It’s become a regular spot for me, I especially love their Muse Curry!
Loved it!
Under the STRONG suggestion of my girlfriend, she, our daughter and I went to Muse Thai for a family dinner out. She gave raved reviews on this establishment and knows how much I love Thai food, so we went.
The place was small, but intimate and had a nice ambiance. The restaurant was packed, but they had seating in the back and that is where we were sat, which was great for us. They have outside seating as well, but it is winter time at this point, so it was closed off.
I cannot fully remember the initial interaction with our servers, but we had 2.5 servers serving us. We started out with appetizers in the form of wings. We ordered one of each option; one BKK and one Thom set of wings. There is an option to have both wings in one order, but we wanted the two separate orders and one of our servers had a hard time understanding that.
They brought out one set of wings where we later found out that it was the mixed wings instead of one separate order as we had requested, but no big deal. They were going to bring out another order of the mixed wings to even it out and when they did, the wings came out looking AMAZING but they were FROZEN COLD!!! We were in such SHOCK and they apologized and brought out another set and it was really hot.
Then, we had to ask our servers for items such as straws and napkins, to which they were STINGY with the napkins and literally gave us one. The food was alright; I asked for some sweet chili sauce to which they gave ONE, TINY cup of and I had to ask for another.
Finally, the bill came, which my girlfriend paid with cash, saying to our main server, "Please take out your tip as well". As we paid up and are exiting the restaurant, we are CHASED DOWN by our .5 of a server with the bill in her hand and everything. To this, we were truly shocked and confused. She said that we did not pay and we confirmed that we did. In actuality, she said that we did not leave a TIP!!! (This was EXTREMELY embarrassing!!!)
We explained that we told the server to pay the bill and take her tip as well as we paid with cash. The .5 of the server said that maybe WE misunderstood. I responded, "No!!! The SERVER misunderstood!!!", and the .5 server instantly agreed. LOL.
To say that our experience was not "aMUSEsing" is an understatement. The service was not the greatest, being ran down on was embarrassing, we had to discuss everything the cold WITH our baby since we were stopped at the outside area of the restaurant; it was not a pleasant experience AT ALL and nor would I recommend anyone to go there and have such a TERRIBLE experience like we did.
Good service and good food ❤️
Everyone is so nice! The spice in on point . Vegan friendly also :)
Yatika and the rest of the service team is amazing. They are incredibly attentive and kind.
The food is equally as amazing as the service. I had the chicken dumplings, grilled chicken massaman curry, and a few drinks and it was absolutely delicious.
Yatika is an amazing server who is very kind and attentive!! Muse Thai has fantastic ambiance and quality food! I am from out of state and am very impressed with the flavor range!
My friend and I stumbled upon this spot completely on a whim—we just Googled what was nearby and decided to give it a try. Boy, are we glad we did! This place is such a delightful surprise.
The atmosphere was exactly what we needed after a long day at work. It’s quiet and dainty, a perfect escape from the noisy restaurants we’re so used to. The servers were incredibly nice and attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable.
Now, let’s talk about the food—absolutely spectacular! We ordered the chicken dumplings, rock shrimp, se ew noodles, beef, and the mango salad. Every single dish was bursting with flavor, but the mango salad deserves a special shoutout—it was so freaking good!
I’m thoroughly impressed and have officially added this place to my list of favorites. Thanks so much for the amazing food and wonderful service. Can’t wait to come back!
Drinks are great, food delicious.
Great vegetarian dishes and a really attentive staff.
This place is solid. Go for it
I really enjoyed the crispy egg. My wife and I are obsessed with pad krawpow kai dow and will always try it in every Thai to compare notes. This one was a solid effort. They shorted us on the spice level, when a person asks for Thai spicy they mean it! But the food was delicious. Only thing that could have been better was the coffee cocktail, it was not very tasty.
Great food, wonderful staff. The noodle soups are all amazing!
BEST THAI FOOD IN NYC !!
Walked in around 6:30 on a Friday night and was seated at the bar, which is a great spot especially if you’re dining solo. Service was amazing — they took my order and grabbed my drink right away. I ordered the Tonkatsu and it was great; flavor profile was delicious. The staff were very friendly and engaging. Would highly recommend!
I love to eat there when I am in Brooklyn
Wonderful staff and wonderful food!
we love it here! killer vibes
Just had an amazing meal here! You have to try it if you're in the area. We tried three appetizers: the muse roti, the curry puffs, and the vs wings. The muse roti is incredible! So much flavor. The wings were also excellent. Very crispy but moist inside and well-sauced. The portions for the appetizers are small so we were glad to try many things.
For the entree, my partner had the muse roti with beef and I had the red curry with fried tofu. I loved the red curry! Not too spicy and so rich in flavor. The fried tofu is a perfect crispy complement to the rich curry.
The decor inside is tasteful and cozy. They have candles hanging from the ceiling which is a nice romantic touch. We had a reservation and our table was ready as soon as we arrived.
The staff were also fantastic. So kind and attentive.
I will definitely be back again and again! Thanks for a delicious meal!
We were racially profiled as soon as i walked in with my friends. Someone disputed the transaction on May 4 but the owner thought it was us who did that but however the last time we went there as a group was May 26. One of my friend was there last week but he didn’t say anything to him. We just told him he’s racist and walk out. This is not the first time we gave him a $20 tip the last time he had the audacity to tell us it’s too small. The other time we say we went there he was mad about the tips and he just walked out and let another bartender services. Just because we are black and the other people are black, he thought it was us.
Me and my three black friends were racially profiled by the bartender who’s also the owner. He accused us of coming there previously, but then later said he doesn’t know if it’s us anymore after my friends card didn’t match and we asking for the video of the camera. He said they looked like us and so he thought it was us, this same guy was angry at us for only tipping him $20 when we once went there…and even sometimes goes to the back for someone else to serve us. I should’ve learned the first time…they are racist
Cozy atmosphere and friendly service.
Amazing service, ambiance and drinks
amazing attentive service and the food was amazing!! the lunch special is a great deal, the khao soy was incredible and such a good size too! definitely will be back
Popped in for their lunch special, was super happy with the quality of food, portion sizes, relaxed atmosphere and overall experience. Definitely worth a visit!
Walked down the street and saw this place, decided to try it out with a friend and we were genuinely blown away by the vibes and the service. The food was equally as phenomenal. 100% come by if you’re near Prospect Park and want some seriously nourishing and outstanding food
Cozy atmosphere, nice interior decor
Lunch special was awesome!
waited 30 minutes only to get on the train and take a bite of a chicken dumpling when I ordered vegetarian. I have been vegetarian my whole life. Absolutely will never go back.
Love this place!! All the food is delicious and they have great cocktails. Solid lunch special as well. One of my favorite neighborhood spots
Muse is a very trendy and authentic Thai restaurant that offers amazing portions, great variety, and very nice service. The moment I enter the restaurant, I’m instantly greeted by the friendly staff.
Muse houses a decent bar section, a relaxing outdoor patio, and another bar at the back where they serve noodles. It’s a pretty spacious restaurant if you ask me! As for the menu, they offer an all day menu, lunch special, Muse specials, and drinks. Muse truly has a great variety to choose from.
Since it’s lunch time, I order their Shoyu Ramen Lunch Special, and to my surprise it’s one of the best ramens I’ve ever tasted! It’s on par (if not better) with other Japanese ramen stores. The soup is rich and hearty. Muse is very generous with the Chashu Pork (4-5 long slices) and noodle portions. Couple it with the included appetizers and at the price of $16.95, what more can you ask for?
Overall, Muse delivers fantastic food and service! I’ll definitely be back to try out their other food!
Good flavor, good portions. Really enjoyed the lunch special:)
I came on a Monday night so it wasn’t busy, but I really liked this place. It’s a cute cozy dimly lit spot, very nice ambience. The food was sooo good too, nice portions. I got the chicken dumplings and calamari as my starters. I didn’t get any sort of sauce for the dumplings but I didn’t even need it because they were very flavorful on their own. I got the Alaska fried rice as my main and it was very well made and a lot of food. Everything tasted great and I would definitely come back here again. I ordered a Mai Tai and it was stronggg lol but very good. 10/10!
The lunch deal is great!!!
Amazing food & service.
I would like to give my five stars to this authentic Thai food with a good atmosphere and taste. First of all, its decoration and atmosphere are particularly good, and secondly, the service staff are also relatively professional. Finally, the amount and taste of Thai food can meet my expectations, although the duck noodles are slightly sweet.
Always reliable for take-out
Went for dinner on a Sunday. Papaya salad was great. Pad thai was bland - not sweet or sour, or savory. Also it was too oily, maybe that was because I ordered it with fried tofu.
Service was great.
THE STAFF IS FRIENDLY, KIND AND INVITING.
EVERY TIME I GO THERE I HAVE THE SAME WAY BEYOND DELICIOUS DISH "THE GRILLED DUCK OVER RICE"
I JUST HAD MY FAVORITE GRILLED DUCK OVER RICE YESTERDAY THURSDAY OCTOBER 17 AROUND 7PM.
Sauces in the curry and noodles were a little too sweet but such efficient delivery and fresh!
This spot is a little more expensive than your typical Thai carryout, but it’s definitely earned the extra! My Red Curry Beef was delicious, prepared with, among other things, artichoke & pumpkin. I loved the chill atmosphere and the friendly waitstaff. I’ll be back when I’m in the neighborhood, for sure!!
Great food great service great shot
The flavors, the service, the room. Everything is perfect. One of our favorites!
Pad see eww is 🤌
Have ordered from here a few times, but first time dining in. True gem in Prospect Heights. Amazing food and drinks. Great vibe.
The place is very nice, staff is extra friendly, and the food came fast and it was delicious. Highly recommend.
Food is delicious. Wonderful customer service
There are tons of Thai restaurants, but Muse is my go to! Whether delivery or in-house, the food is always fresh, the drinks are good AND everything is affordable. If you're looking to try new things, their Street food menu has some surprising highlights like the ground beef dish and the pork belly with basil fried rice.
OMG! It’s soo delicious! I always get the Drunken Noodle with fried tofu and it’s amazing! So fresh and tasty!
This is my local favorite. Staff is super friendly. We love it here
Fantastic!
Authentic Thai food; amazing atmosphere and service!
A DELICIOUS and joyful experience. SUPERB service and wonderful enviroment. Will definitely be back
Delicious food, fast and great customer service. Also the lychee martini 10/10
The staff were super friendly and the food was great! We got the Duck noodle soup and Drunken noodles 😋
Such a great experience - ordered 3 dishes and they were all delicious, full of flavor, and so comforting. Service was excellent, very attentive, and kind. Ambiance 10/10 relaxing music and beautiful interior. Will definitely be coming back many times for the Ramen and Braised beef dish!!!!!!! The best Thai food I’ve ever had
Yatika was excellent. Loved it, really cute spot with great food and friendly service
I stumbled across this place and I am absolutely in love! The staff is friendly, the food is good (I got an appetizer of the mock duck buns as I don’t eat meat— delicious) and the atmosphere is so beautiful calm and relaxing. Seriously recommend! In a rapidly gentrifying neighborhood, which is sad and annoying😢😢😢😢😢😢 I was happy to see many people of color dining here when I went on a random Sunday. My server was lovely and I plan to return. Definitely a new favorite. Also super reasonable prices!!!!
Very cute spot with delicious food! Highly recommend the Muse Bay.
Delicious pineapple jasmine rice topped with fried cod. Server was friendly and made adjustments to my plate. Will definitely return.
The vibe is great, the service is on point, especially for those with children, and the food is pretty darn yummy. A great taste of Thailand ❤️
Amazing service and really good pho
I enjoyed my lunch very much.
Incredible food! Very flavorful and sharp Tom kha. The pad Thai was huge portions (we both had leftovers) and delicious, sweet but not too sweet, umami, not dry.
We were in the neighborhood of Fort Greene, Brooklyn for exploring new bakeries and randomly visited Muse Thai for dinner.
The decor is simple and bright with cozy ambiance and lots of seating. However, it’s crowded during the peak on weekends so we highly recommend to make a reservation in advance.
It’s overall delicious with satisfying portion and reasonable price. Our favorites were the peanut dumplings and their signature noodle bowls. The broth of Muse Bay is light but flavorful with 3 different proteins. The taste of Khao Soy was super rich and creamy.
such a beautiful interior and great great food! drunken noodles were perfectly spicy.
The food was amazing, the service was friendly, and I could eat here EVERY day
Love this spot. Great happy hour with perfect bites.
this place is awesome
Everyone was very friendly and it was a very comfortable atmosphere. The food was incredible! Pad thai was wonderful, pineapple fried rice was some or the best I've had, and the pork buns were definitely worth trying
We had the basic noodles and loved it!
Love this neighborhood place. Is it the best Thai food in New York? No! But it’s homey, and cozy, and the people here are so kind.
I’ve been coming here for two years now. The service is excellent, the wait time is next to nothing and the food is fantastic. I’ve nearly tried everything!
Service was great! Had the fried tofu see-ew noodles which were delicious and filling.
The food came out quick and was fresh. Definitely recommend.
Really solid Thai food. Order off their "street food" menu for something a bit different than your standard pad thai.
The food at Muse was great, especially if you enjoy Thai cuisine, but unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired. The waitress was overly pushy, which made the experience feel uncomfortable and took away from what could have been an enjoyable meal.
I love the ambiance of the venue, the service is great from the time you enter the restaurant. We were welcomed by the beautiful smile of the waitress. The food is excellent and I would recommend this place to everyone .
A large variety of foods on their menu ranging from pho to ramen to your classic thai dishes. Great happy hour deals as well.
Great service and food, would come back again!
Great so far. Love the glasses
Food was great and plentiful with great prices to go with it!!
The food and the staff here are so amazing
Horrible customer service horrible waitress/host disgusting attitude, she tells me to leave after I waited around for my pick up order for 20 minutes on both sides of the restaurant and starts yelling at me and making a scene a small short Asian woman on Friday evening at 740pm never will ever go there again! And would NEVER RECOMMEND
Coming here is always the best choice🥹😌
Cute corner Thai spot in my neighborhood - we ordered the Khao Soy and Crispy Pork Fried Rice. Service was kind and friendly, and the food was excellent!
Great food and lovely environment. Prices are very reasonable!
Drunken noodles were amazing! Great staff
Friendliest service and hands down the best drunken noodles in Brooklyn. Love Muse!
What an establishment. Amazing cocktail deals for happy hour coupled with voluminous portion sizes ripe for leftover collection. Nice chili oil spoon too. Mmm
Great happy hour deals! Very good portions and flavorful dishes. One of my favorite Thai spots in NYC!
Fantastic food, service and atmosphere
We love going here, even the children. The food is good. Servers are helpful. Overall great time everytime we go.
This is one of my favorite thai food restaurants in bk. 10/10 recommend, good food, good drinks, good vibes. Check out Muse anytime your in the area.
The best duck I’ve ever had. Must have! Great customer service.
Awesome food, service would come back
Our fav Thai place in the area! Great happy hour
10/10! Best Thai spot in Brooklyn hands down
Amazing food, very great experience!
Beautiful interior, great servers, happy hour until 830, and fantastic food.
Great drinks! And very attentive staff
The food was incredible and I recommend getting the crispy pork over rice with sweet chili sauce and drunken noodles
This place has a warm and cozy atmosphere. The food is also good, even for Thai people like me.
