Durian, which originally began in Larchmont, opened a second location in New Rochelle at 227 Main St. in late 2022 and since then, has received praise for its food and service.
The eatery, led by a chef with over two decades of experience cooking in high-end Thai food restaurants, specializes in using fresh ingredients from both local sources and Thailand.
Dishes offered by the location include pad Thai, Tom Yum Koong soup, a variety of curry options, Thai fried rice, and specialties such as Kai Jeow, a Thai-style omelet.
The New Rochelle location's opening follows the original Larchmont restaurant located at 147 Chatsworth Ave.
So far, visitors to the New Rochelle eatery have had plenty of good things to say, as evidenced by several positive Yelp reviews.
"When I saw Durian opened a second location I had to stop by!" wrote Siomara P. of New York City, who added, "I love their drunken noodle, it's not your typical Thai restaurant, they use all fresh ingredients."
"They do not play around with their fresh veggies," she continued.
Jerry L. of New Rochelle also praised the dishes that he ordered during his visit.
"For food we ordered the Kari puffs which came with 2 pieces, for entree I had the beef drunken noodles that really hit the spot," he wrote, continuing, "The food here is excellent and our experience was great."
The eatery is open every day of the week besides Tuesdays.
