Excellent as always. Falansai's full tasting menu, what's now called the 'Super' Dac Biet, has been a regular feature of our birthday/anniversary dinner rotation for years now (I maintain you're doing it wrong if you only order ala carte here) and it's always a blast. The team does an amazing job of making really high-end, inventive cooking feel fun and casual. I have to give a huge shout-out to the beverage program as well; Falansai's wine list might have the most reasonable prices of any decent restaurant in New York right now (a five-course wine pairing for $65 in this day and age is nuts) and there's always something interesting and unexpected on offer. Even the really baller bottles (which you might have to ask to see the reserve list to know about in the first place), which are often on par with the best wine you can buy anywhere in the city, are sold at astoundingly fair prices. Falansai is a gem of an increasingly rare breed in NYC.

We came to this place under the premise that the food was outstanding based on the Michelin rating and social media touting that the food was comparably to that in Thailand…..this was the reason we booked. The service was lovely, everyone friendly and attentive which is always appreciated. The shrimp pancake appetizer was an interactive delicious experience. The rose quartz drink I had done virgin and enjoyed. The shrimp pad Thai was delicious, noodles done well, very tasty. The Wagyu pho was recommended and underwhelming honestly. We enjoyed both of the desserts we ordered, the crème brûlée and mango ice cream served with sticky rice….this was a highlight for us. Would I say Value….Probably Not.

Amazing! The food was so good and fresh. Servers were attentive and kind. We came to check this restaurant out from Connecticut and it did not disappoint. Can’t wait to go back and try more of the menu.

Always delicious and the staff are so friendly. We love coming here!

Awesome, can’t beat dining with crackheads and people waiting for a bus
