JACKSON HEIGHTS — A new Thai restaurant opened this week on 83rd Street, with an extensive lunch menu and seating inside.

Sompong opened Monday at 37-09 83rd St. in a former Chinese take-out restaurant, according to employee Rainny Phoopattana, 25.

They offer special seafood and duck menus with curries, like an avocado tilapia with panang curry and a tamarind duck.

Sompong, which means "desire" in Thai, is decorated with various Buddha statues on wood-paneled walls.

There's seating for more than 20 people, and they also deliver throughout the neighborhood.

It's open seven days a week, from 11 a.m. until 11 p.m.
