"Lung Yai Thai Tapas features the best Thai food in all of Miami, prepared by a Bangkok-born chef who clearly understands what it takes to develop flavors as rich as his dishes. It's normal to wait about 90-some minutes for a table at the no-reservation restaurant, but it's well worth it. The restaurant is about as unfussy as it gets in Miami's Calle Ocho district, with minimal decor and styling. Seating options include tables on the sidewalk or a laid-back covered patio. The restaurant feels authentic, gritty and full of rich Thai flavors that are showcased on the varied menu. The pad thai is a must—flavors perfectly coat every noodle without overpowering the soft noodles, and lovely bits of crunchy texture from the peanuts infiltrating every bite." - Nila Do Simon, Jennifer M.
