Pata Paplean - Queens

Definitely try the Taro balls! The noodles are great too, but I usually visit for the drinks and desserts.

The noodle soup is absolutely delightful! I ordered the Tom Yum noodles, which are very affordable. They have a nice balance of spiciness, sweetness, and just the right amount of salt. The portion size is not too large, leaving room for dessert. While the menu isn’t extensive, they certainly know how to make a great noodle soup! Food rating: 5/5.

Authentic Thai-style noodles. The BEST Nam Tok (blood soup noodles) in New York!

Pata Paplean is a cute, inconveniently small place that you can easily pass without notice, but if you go inward, you are welcomed by friendly servers and entangled in the delicious smells of flavored Thai dishes. Your menu is not as extensive as other restaurants in the area, but the dishes they offer are very well prepared. My husband and I enjoyed the dry frying pork noodles that came with a fragrant and tasty broth on the side, along with a chicken dish that came with a tart tamarind sauce that balanced the dish very well. I would definitely return to this place. The prices are affordable, the service is great, and the food is on point.

Amazing Thai restaurant that serves delicious noodle dishes with broth or dry. The ambiance and service is great! My wife and I shared Roasted Pork Dry) Noodles and the crispy Hat Yair Chicken. Both dishes very great! Be aware this place is cash only! Go check it out and enjoy!
