Unglo: A Daily 12–6pm Happy Hour at a Thai Grill by Lincoln Center
Unglo runs a happy hour every day from 12 to 6pm at 35 W 64th St, a Thai grill in Lincoln Square. That is six hours a day, seven days a week, and it starts at noon.
The verdict: the window is generous and the deal is a blank. No happy hour prices are posted, so there is no way to say what you save. The regular menu tells you what’s at stake: cocktails are $20–$22, beer is $10 and a Thai iced tea with cheese foam is $13. If the discount is real, a weekday afternoon here is a good use of those hours. If it isn’t, you’re paying full price at a restaurant that is priced like one.
The Happy Hour
- When: every day, 12–6pm.
- What’s on it: the prices aren’t published. The window overlaps lunch and the early dinner hours, and the bar is open until 10pm.
- Regular drink prices: nine cocktails at $20–$22, including the Slow Heat (tequila, watermelon, basil, jalapeño) at $22 and the Amber Silence (bacon-washed whiskey) at $21. Beer is Singha Lager or Fiddlehead IPA at $10.
The Room
Unglo bills itself as refined Thai comfort food, with tables built for grilling and sharing. Entrees run from tofu curry at $24 to a New York strip at $59, with Khao Soi Chicken at $26 and Prawn Pad Thai at $29 in between. A Pre Theater set for two is $99 and includes beer or wine, two starters and three mains. The restaurant is open 12–10pm daily and takes reservations. The nearest trains are 66 St-Lincoln Center (1) and 59 St-Columbus Circle (1/A/B/C/D).
