Read moreLocated at 461 W 23rd Street in the heart of Chelsea, Manhattan, HED NYC will introduce a new era of Thai fine dining to New York City as one of the first restaurants in Manhattan dedicated exclusively to a seasonal tasting menu experience. Positioned in one of the city’s most vibrant and culturally rich neighborhoods, HED NYC will offer an intimate and elevated destination for discerning diners seeking a refined culinary journey.
Designed as a modern luxury dining experience, HED NYC will present a carefully curated multi-course tasting menu that evolves seasonally throughout the year. Each menu will highlight premium ingredients at their peak while showcasing Thai flavors through a contemporary and elegant perspective. The concept blends traditional Thai culinary heritage with modern technique, precision, and artistic presentation.
At the heart of HED NYC is Chef Saint, whose culinary vision and international experience define the restaurant’s identity. Chef Saint brings world-class expertise from Sawaan, the acclaimed one Michelin-star Thai restaurant in Bangkok, where he refined his skills in precision, technique, and luxury hospitality. He is also the executive chef behind HED11 in San Francisco, which earned recognition in the Michelin Guide in both 2024 and 2025—an exceptional accomplishment achieved just three months after opening. His ability to merge authentic Thai roots with innovative fine dining execution positions HED NYC as a serious contender in Manhattan’s competitive luxury dining scene.
HED NYC will be more than a restaurant—it will be a fully immersive tasting experience. Each course will tell a story rooted in Thai culture, seasonal inspiration, and culinary craftsmanship. Guests can expect bold yet balanced flavors, refined plating, and a thoughtful progression of dishes that reflect Thailand’s diverse regional influences while embracing modern creativity. From rare herbs and spices to premium seafood and carefully sourced meats, every element will be intentional, elevated, and memorable.
