About RUA Thai

Thai Made Fast, Fresh, and Simple in The Heart of Brooklyn

"From the Floating Markets to Brooklyn — The Heart Behind RUA”

Our head chef was born and raised in a small town Ratchaburi, where the floating markets weren’t just a place to shop — they were the heartbeat of the community. Mornings were spent watching his grandmother ladle fragrant curries from a tiny boat. Afternoons were for helping prep herbs while the river breeze carried the scent of lemongrass and grilled fish. It wasn’t fancy. It was alive.

That’s the soul he brings to RUA. 

More than just a restaurant, RUA is a tribute to those roots — the balance of chaos and calm, of sweet and spicy, of old-school Thai flavors with a fresh Brooklyn rhythm. Every plate is inspired by the dishes that floated down the canals of his childhood — now reimagined with local ingredients, seasonal produce, and a whole lot of heart.

We’re not here to reinvent Thai food. We’re here to honor it, with fire, flavor, and the stories that make it unforgettable.
Come hungry. Leave changed." - The Chef
