Beli's TikTok account (@beli_eats) named Hungry Thirsty one of the "top 4 rated NYC restaurants of 2025, so far," out of over 50 million ratings on the Beli app, calling it "a phenomenal Thai restaurant," per Beli (TikTok, @beli_eats). A separate Beli TikTok post called it Beli's new No. 1 Thai restaurant in NYC, noting it's from Ugly Baby alumni operating in the same small Carroll Gardens space.
Beli described every dish as "extremely flavorful, spicy, but still balanced," language that points to strong, sustained diner demand for a small space, though neither TikTok post gives a quoted wait time or line length, per Beli (TikTok, @beli_eats).
