nasty hostess – I have been to Republic numerous times and was aware of the communal seating arrangement...today, I arrived with my fiance for lunch and we were asked to follow the hostess to the center of a communal table. Although, we noticed that there was an empty table, where we could have sat alone. We asked for this table and the hostess RUDELY rolled her eyes and said NO. We repeated that we wanted to sit at a different table and once again she repeated NO with an attitude.My fiance and I eat out a lot and I have NEV... read more
avoid – The food is very bland and the service is very mediocre. The servers who are there seem to do a good job but they are grossly understaffed. So they repeatedly close huge sections of the restaurant. But they still try to pack the place in. We had 7 people sitting next to us in a space built for 4. On asking the manager why they couldn't be seated at one of the many many empty tables, she explained their lack of staff and said, "really, the food isnt great, so the only reason we are stay business is because we are on u... read more
Average Food/Service – While I do think one can make a much worse choice for Thai food, Republic is not the best. The Pad Thai is slightly bland, and other dishes just do not compare to other similarly priced Thai restaurants.
Great Night Out!! – The service is fast and the food is great. The restauraunt has a very communal feel. You share your table with other parties but you are never cramped. The prices are perfect and a dinner for two with appetizers was 40 bucks!!!. I loved it Would come back again. Try the Grilled Calimari and the Frid Wontons
More Unique but barely – I thought that with a very unique decor and environment that this place would be amazing. Their location is convenient but their food is no better than any other thai place. You pay for their rent basically. Also the service there is less than mediocre. Furthermore I called to make a reservation. Someone took it and then later when I got there they said that making a reservation doesn't make a difference-you wait behind the other people who got there-so there really was NO POINT in making a reservati... read more
Well disguised fast food – This is a noodle shop. There's nothing on the menu over $10 bucks. With that in mind, YES it's loud and YES the staff is quick/abrupt but it's CHEAP! Most of the food there is good. Congratulations to Republic for making fast food seem more glamorous. If you want a fine dining experience go somewhere else!
DON'T DO IT! CONVENIENT LOCATION, TERRIBLE ATTITUDE! – If you want mediocre food and bitchy waitresses, then you're in the right place. The only reason why this place is still in business is because of its location. Sure, Republic put some thought into their lighting scheme and decor, but they clearly forgot to train their servers in manners. I went here with my boyfriend and will NEVER go back. We were both really in the mood for Asian soup & had already been to Zen Palate that week, so we opted for somewhere different. My ... read more
Good value, quick eats – When I'm in the area and just want simple yummy noodles, i come here. The atmosphere in the restaurant is noisy given the all around concrete atmosphere. Be prepared to share a table since they will seat multiple paties together since seating is on benches. Not a big deal unless you're trying to have a private conversation, but then again you wouldn't do it here anyhow. The drinks are good, but pricey compared to the noodle dishes. I always order the steamed vegetable dumplings and glass noodles. I'v... read more
fun atmosphere – my friends and i were looking for a nice place to have a drink on a friday night in union square, we ended up at republic this thai place right next to mc donalds. the drinks were amazing, the food came fast and the staff looked like they were having a good time. our waiter even told us a really cool place were we could go dancing afterwards. overall a really good experience would not recomend for a romantic date, its too loud.
