Terra Thai is closing this month for a revamp with a March return

Terra Thai closed after service last night for a month-long revamp. 

Owners Karuna Wiwattanakantang and Norawat Margsiri emailed us with the news about the restaurant at 518 E. Sixth St. between Avenue A and Avenue B. 

"We plan to reorganize the store to make it fit for the current economic situation," they said. "We'll be back in March at the same location and look forward to serving you and the community again." 

The owners previously operated Terra Thai in Boulder, Colo., for six years before deciding to move to NYC and signing a lease — weeks before the pandemic PAUSE of March 2020.

They could offer a more limited menu of Bangkok-style street food starting in May 2020. Since then, they've expanded the menu (our go-to is basil tofu over rice or the sen yai drunken noodles). 

With lush plants, a working turntable, and rows of LPs, dining at one of the two tables feels like enjoying a meal at a friend’s home. 

Highly recommended if you haven't tried it. Mark it in your calendar for March.
