About

Oh yesss.., Lung Yai - Thai tapas in the corner of the 17th Avenue in Little Havana. Its that small asian joint that takes you out of the ordinary into the Thailand street food scene. The food here is amazing. The Shrimp and Calamari salad is always so good.

You know that feeling when you can’t decide what to eat…

And you go to a tapas place where you can order once 😣😣 the anxiety really kick in 😰

But I went with my gut and ordered the Tom yum soup, blue crab fried rice and a shrimp Pad Thai from Lung Yai Tapas 🔥🔥 also, if you didn’t know or haven’t tried it their passion fruit sake is AMAZING!!

Have you been in this predicament? If so, drop your go to meals 👇🏼

    Just Amazing. Great Thai. Just be aware to make a long line and you only order only once. Still is worth it

    You know that feeling when you can’t decide what to eat…

    And you go to a tapas place where you can order once 😣😣 the anxiety really kick in 😰

    But I went with my gut and ordered the Tom yum soup, blue crab fried rice and a shrimp Pad Thai from Lung Yai Tapas 🔥🔥 also, if you didn’t know or haven’t tried it their passion fruit sake is AMAZING!!
