If you asked us to make one wildly accurate guess about something happening in New York City right now, it’s that a line is forming outside of Fish Cheeks. The buzzy Thai hotspot has been an NYC favorite for nearly a decade–and if we had to put money on why, we’d say it has a lot to do with their coconut crab curry.
But good news for anyone who has ever had to suffer through a cacophony of their friends’ voices asking if their table is ready yet: Fish Cheeks fans now have another option, and this one doesn’t require standing on the sidewalk refreshing OpenTable.
The team behind Fish Cheeks has officially opened Little Cheeks, a brand-new sister concept designed exclusively for takeout and delivery. No reservations, no wait times, no hovering awkwardly near the host stand–just excellent Thai food, delivered straight to your door. It’s essentially a New Yorker’s dream.
While Fish Cheeks is built around communal, share-everything plates, Little Cheeks is all about a more personal dining experience. Which, yes, means your coconut crab curry is yours and yours alone. No sharing. No judgment. No “can I just have one bite?” Which is exactly as it should be.
Little Cheeks leans heavily into noodle-driven, single-plate meals, spotlighting the everyday Thai dishes the team–who are all Thai natives–grew up eating. These are dishes that don’t quite fit into Fish Cheeks’ family-style format, but are just as crave-worthy and arguably even more dangerous when you’re ordering solo.
Think: comfort food energy, elevated execution, and portions designed for one very happy person.
If you’re already mentally building tonight’s order, here’s a taste of what’s on the menu:
- Roasted Duck Noodle
- Pad Kee Mow Chicken
- Tom Yum Soup Shrimp
- Mussel Gorlae
- Zaab Wings
- Shrimp Pad Thai
- Coconut Crab Curry (because obviously)
Little Cheeks is currently available on DoorDash, Uber Eats, Seamless, and Grubhub, with delivery coming from both the NoHo and Williamsburg locations–meaning a whole lot of NYC just got significantly luckier at dinner time.
If you’re hungry, Little Cheeks is ready to send you noods! (Their words, not ours 😉) Learn more and place you order on Little Cheeks’ website.
