“Good experience. It was busy, but we got our order fairly quickly. The food was hot and delicious. Pot stickers were perfectly crisp, the fried rice actually had flavor. Will be back for sure.Parking: Parking in the garage behind is free if you park less than an hour. There is an entrance to the restaurant from the alley.“

“Fantastic food, competitive prices for FRESH food and incredibly friendly staff. Food was made super fresh and their Crab Ragoon has real crab in it (and lots of it as well). The atmosphere could use some updates, but it doesn't take away from the quality of the food which is why I go here. The owners are a young family with two kiddos the same age as mine (1 and 2 years) and their daughter presented my daughter with a traditional Thai elephant keychain. I absolutely love everything about this place and the food.“

“Solid Thai spot in oak park with quick service and deals if you pay cash (we got a free pad Thai for spending over $70). I absolutely loved the kao soy, I took the broth home and added my own noodles the next day for the best leftover-lunch ever.“

“I still love Penny's after all these years going there.... one of my favorite items is the TomYum soup... but a little disappointed that the mushrooms used in the soup seem to come from a can now instead of the fresh ones they used to use. Stir fry is excellent though!“

“JJ is our favorite place to go. We have been coming here for lunch and dinner like forever. This place offers a variety of popular Thai street food dishes and they are all heavenly delicious. Note: Try their Khao Kha Moo and Fried Tofu Salad (Nam Tok), you can't go wrong with those!“

“Absolutely incredible place!! It's definitely the best sushi and Thai on the north side of Chicago. We usually go to Hot Wok Cool Sushi or other places further into the city. -Not after today! This place was fantastic. The service was great - they were so friendly. And the food and presentation was phenomenal. It blew away any place that we went to before. It's the first place that all 4 members of my family agreed was awesome. We will definitely be back soon!“

“High quality Thai food. Limited menu (no pad Thai) but that doesn't detract from the offerings. Grandma's pork belly is different from your typical pork belly dish. The pork belly is cut into bitter sized pieces and deep fried. Served with the jaew sauce is really delicious. My wife loves coming for the papaya salad and Thai fried rice. The pad siew is also really well prepared here.“

“Very clean and cute shop with wonderful service. The people were very polite and food was quick. I got the orange chicken and it was outstanding. A lot of place use a sugary/ fake tasting orange sauce, but Broccoli has a very authentic and delightful taste. Our appetizers were super good, too. I was in town for a convention but I'd happily drive the hour it takes to get there to eat at Broccoli again.“

“Amazing place, the food is top notch for Vietnamese cuisine, the ambience is nice and relaxing, and also the owner, Daniel, who made us laugh and made us feel so welcomed. You can tell the restaurant is there to serve an experience to their customers. No wonder there are so many 5 stars.We are definitely coming back, and would recommend this place anyone.“

“I eat here often, the food is amazing. Any time I have friends over I suggest going here. They’ve all loved it as well. I think the owners appreciate how much I enjoy their food, and on occasion will surprise me with extra when I take it to go.Highly recommended!“

“This may be my new favourite restaurant in Chicagoland — an opinion shared by my family.We enjoyed stellar food. Even by non-vegetarian standards.The Tom Kha soup and spicy eggplant (which also tastes great mild) are fantastic. The curry we tried was also very good. The soy “chicken” has excellent texture and flavour, whether soft or battered.One plate per person is a reasonable serving size.Dietary restrictions: Vegan“

“Talk about heaven in a bowl. It was my bday week and a friend wanted to take me out. I had seen this video on Instagram of someone enjoying a bowl of ramen with a colossal beef rib and was intrigued enough to see it for myself. The interior had a fabulous island Filipino vibe with greens and oranges. The staff was diverse and accommodating. I spilled my water in the first minutes of my experience, and the staff was so quick and helpful to respond. My friend and I got drinks. I initially ordered Old Fashioned, and I can't remember what she first did, but it was purple, and I ended up liking hers more, so we traded. For appetizers, we got delicious dumplings and the roasted duck bun, which was also super tasty, and I highly recommend it. Regarding the main course, I came here for one mission, the beef Rib Ramen. Words can't fully express or comprehend how delicious this bowl of excellence was. So many flavors of spice balance in the broth accompanying fresh noodles, and laid enormously over the bowl is a four-hour roasted bone-in rib. Upon picking the rib up, the meat fell into the broth as if to say I was ready. It was simply delicious and, by far, one of the best meals I've ever had. The broth and noodles were also excellent and complemented the meal perfectly. My friend and I both enjoyed it as she also enjoyed her meal. Overall, this was the most accessible five stars I've ever given. Please enjoy Bite. They deserve your business. 5 out of 5“

“Eat Fine is a special place. Not only is their menu extensive and their food incredible, they really care about their community, the service is amazing and they always do whatever they can to help you out. But most importantly, their food is top notch. There isn't anywhere I know of that makes such delicious, fresh tasting Thai food, and I'm so lucky to have it in my neighborhood. You really owe it to yourself to visit.“

“Beautiful interior, delicious food, attentive staff, and fast service. We dined in on a Sunday afternoon and very much enjoyed our experience. We started with the Finger Combo. I tried the crab rangoon and crispy rolls which I thoroughly enjoyed. The only note I have is that it comes with a tiny cup of sweet and sour sauce. The dish could definitely use a bigger serving of sauce to complement all the yummy fried finger foods! The pineapple shrimp curry was perfectly sweet and creamy with a hearty helping of rice. My mom said the Pad Si Ew was tasty, loved the presentation as well. My boyfriend ordered the Basil Fried Rice which packed a spicy kick but was super flavorful. We are excited to have a new Thai place in our repertoire!“

“Solid Thai place. Not great, not bad. Generally very nice people inside. Was surprised that there were so few gluten free curries —only their green and red were GF. The Pad Thai was also very agree.The picked cucumbers, carrots, and onions as a cheap appetizer was probably the most delicious thing we ate.“

“First and foremost, the staff is hands down the best! Literally the friendliest staff I’ve ever encountered! And I’ve tried a few things on the menu and nothing has been a let down. Usually I regret straying from “the usual” but I never do here. The crab rangoon is the best I’ve ever had, the wings surprised me with how tasty and well cooked they were, the basil chicken egg rolls were bomb (so is the basil chicken over rice), and the Khao Soi is a best seller for a reason!“

Definitely give it a try!Dietary restrictions: If a thai place can work around garlic they can work around anything.“

“This is our go-to takeout spot. They have plenty of vegan and gluten free options. The massaman curry and basil fried rice are my personal favorites. You can tell they use fresh ingredients and spices. I've had the chive dumplings, fried tofu, veggie egg roll, cucumber salad. (All marked vegan on the menu which I highly appreciate). The panang curry was waaaay too spicy for me so I'm sticking with massaman. I haven't dined in but whenever I pick up take out, the staff is super friendly and the restaurant has a peaceful atmosphere.“

“I planned on going to dinner there last night (Tuesday) and we found great parking, walked to the restaurant and sadly found out it was closed. As we were about to turn around, Anna appeared and invited us in and cooked dinner.... what other owner would be so generous with her own personal time? We had an incredible evening, great food and the compassion of Anna and her concern for her customers makes us keep going back....Anna's Thai Kitchen deserves a "10." It is my favorite Thai restaurant and every different dish I have ordered has been phenomenal for the quality, freshness and incredible flavor. Anna's restaurant is her heart; she only serves food that she loves! Her menu and her food come from her heart.... open your heart and share in her love!“

“The food is outrageously good and the man at the counter (guessing he is the owner) is wonderful. He’s helpful and welcoming and just a pleasure to deal with. I’m so glad I took a chance. I’ve got lots of decent Thai around me and the menu is a bit different here. Everything I’ve had has been so good.“

“I’ve gone here multiple times and done takeout multiple times. It is honestly a favorite neighborhood gem. The service when dining in is truly great and some of the best in Lakeview!! The food is always consistent and the atmosphere is quite adorable…great for friends or date night - either way! Thank you to the staff! A young gentleman was our server twice and he was phenomenal.Favorites: Shanghai Lo Mein & Mongolian Beef“

“A Cozy Culinary Gem: Delights and Comfort at Chim Thai CuisineThe warmth and inviting atmosphere immediately set the stage for what was to be a memorable dining experience. Nestled in a cozy corner, this restaurant is a haven for Thai cuisine enthusiasts and foodies alike, offering a blend of traditional flavors and a homely ambiance.The Chicken Satay, a dish that stood out for its perfectly grilled texture and the harmonious blend of spices that permeated the tender chicken strips. Served with a side of rich, creamy peanut sauce, each bite was a delightful journey through the vibrant tastes of Thailand.Next on the table were the Pork Rolls, which were nothing short of exceptional. The pork filling was succulent and flavorful, complemented by a dipping sauce that added a tangy and slightly sweet note, making each bite irresistible.The highlight of the evening, however, was the Pork and Wonton Noodle Soup. The noodles, cooked to perfection, tied the whole dish together, making it a profoundly satisfying experience.The restaurant exudes a cozy charm, with its warm lighting and thoughtfully arranged decor, creating an inviting space that complements the dining experience beautifully.I will definitely comeback!“

“Ever since they opened we go out of our way to frequent this place. We have other Thai places within walking distance from our condo but a short drive yields better quality Thai food and wonderful service. Ambiance: The place is super clean which is a plus. If the front of the house is immaculate, I would think the kitchen is the same. The food is amazing. Tiger Cry is amazing and they give a nice size portion compared to other places. Sweet/savory marinated thin slices of beef char-grilled is wonderful. Don't hesitate on the fried shumai- Fried shrimp shu-mai, served with light sweet and sour sauce. Awesome finger food. You can't go wrong with any of the curry dishes. This last round we had the Gaeng Masaman - Masaman curry and potatoes sauteed in coconut milk with peanuts and chicken. Great flavor. So many selections but all have been great! I love the fact you can choose the level of spiciness for each dish depending on your preferences. We go full-tilt hot as hell spicy and it does not disappoint! Pricing is a bit lower than your average Thai places and portions are more generous. 3 dishes for 2 people yields leftovers! Owner is friendly and I can tell he loves what he does and is looking out for the diners. This is the place you want to make sure thrives. Go pay them a visit.“

“I downloaded Yelp just so I could review the food and service. Service 10/10!!! The worker was the most sweetest and patient person ever. I was being so indecisive with my food choices and whether to eat in or out and she was so patient with me. I ordered the Pad See-eew Noodle with Chicken Katsu and Crab Rangoon. Everything was cooked perfectly, they practically MELTED in my mouth. I usually am a fast eater but I ate slow just to enjoy the food, honestly. And when I wanted to tip her-- SHE Refused to let me tip her! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE GO HERE!!!!!“

“Very cozy asian-style noodle spot!I ordered a beef pad thai for lunch. The food was good, but it wasn’t until I added fish sauce and chili at home where all the flavors came out and molded together! I wish I asked for the condiments in-person. The beef was more on the hard side though, I wish it was softer. The portion was bigger than I expected but was the perfect size. I would love to come back and try other noodle dishes on the menu.In terms of service, I was greeted with smiles by the hostess doubling as a server as I walked in the door. Very attentive and very kind. She knows her customers very well. The food came out quick and I was able to get a good meal in while I was in-between classes.The music was great it contributed to the ambiance. I loved the fact that I could also hear the wok sizzling in the background as they were cooking.Parking: There’s a side street that’s not paid but it’s difficult to find parking. Sheffield is paid parking.“

“The people were so friendly, very talkative..it reminded me of how Greek families of old ran their own businesses. The food is amazing in look, style presentation and taste.

“Able to seat yourself for dine-in — or serve yourself at the to-go kiosk! Excellent dish choices that do take some time to come out, but that’s to give you fresh and piping hot food! Big portions so be prepared to share or build up an appetite.Finally tried Pad See Ew which I was recommended to try since I love Pad Thai — I was amazed! Also Sala Pao Buns Definitely a gem hidden in the rough!“

“This is one of my favorite places! The vibe here is Thai, and the food is absolutely delicious and tempting. The taste never disappoints, and they have a great selection of vegetarian options. If you're three people, I recommend starting with the veg gyoza and crispy tofu as appetizers. For sushi, the farmers market roll is a must-try for its incredible flavors. And finally, for the main course, I suggest trying the pad thai with tofu and the red curry with a variety of veggies. The staff here is really friendly and helpful when it comes to navigating the menu.“

“I am absolutely obsessed with this place. The shrimp spring rolls are fantastic and I will be ordering the Khao Soi Gai every week for the foreseeable future. It is incredible!! I tried it for the first time last night (having never tried Thai curry) and oh my god. It’s sweet, savory, the chicken is great, and the noodles are perfect! I had my 8 month old try a bite and he loved it too!! The papaya salad is also super good! I will absolutely be ordering from here again next week. Thank you!!“

“I've been to this cute neighborhood spot twice now but have only gotten to reviewing it now. The decor is cute and I like how much sunlight streams into the space, and the service has always been nice and friendly even though it's a small team (we love supporting local + family-owned businesses!). Now onto the food - last time I got the udon pad Thai which I thought was a fun way to eat pad Thai. This time I got the fish cakes as an appetizer and the crispy rice salad as a main. The fish cakes are well spiced and fragrant and I enjoyed them and the little cucumber salad they came with. They have a lot of interesting appetizers so next time I want to try the chive dumplings and/or the shrimp in the blanket. I ordered the crispy rice salad because I saw great reviews for them and it caught my eye because I love a crispy item and the crispy rice puffs sounded so good. They are really great, although the red curry paste def gives it a kick so it's spicy but not unbearable (reference point I am decent but not amazing with spice and Thai spice usually is pretty spicy for me). Definitely worth trying and I've not had anything quite like the crispy rice balls. Such good texture and very fragrant - you can taste the lime juice and herbs. Lastly, I got their taro pearls with coconut milk, which reminds me of the Filipino dessert ginataan. Warm, cozy and perfect way to end a meal especially on a cold day. The verdict is I'm glad this restaurant is in the neighborhood and I would definitely come back and try other things on the menu.“

“This place is so delicious! The food is so beautifully spiced and balanced that I don't have to add condiments to enhance the dishes at all. The crab rangoon actually tastes like crab and not just a "cream cheese puff" which seems to have become a current trend. The salmon tamarind is unbelievable. You can bring your own alcohol without a corkage fee. It's a casual place with tasteful decor and lighting.“

“We ordered delivery and called ahead to see if there were vegan items available and the woman I spoke with was great! She was very helpful and even called me back when I ordered something that wasn't vegan and switched my order for me to a special item she made--taro bean fritter--that was delicious! Everything was delicious and I've had non vegan friends say the same. I highly recommend this place! The food is excellent and the service is the best!!Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options and they are very accommodating to vegans also.“

“Just as great as I remembered. I ate here 10 years ago often then I moved, now that I'm back in Chicago it's worth the drive from the Southside! Service awesome, good hot and seasoned perfectly. Basil fried rice, crab Rangoon, pot stickers, pad Thai and ginger wings are staples. I hope this place never closes! I wish the take out on 18th was still there but maybe another location will pop up in the future. Til then I'm going to keep taking the 45 minute ride to Berwyn, it's just that good and the service and quickness you receive such delicious food is unmatched.“

“Quiet hole in the wall place. Worth every penny and definitely coming back. Satay chicken was perfect, tender and juicy and the sauce on the side is essentially peanut butter with coconut milk. The Nong Thong were fried extra crispy and are really hot when served, definitely wait a minute before grabbing and it comes with sweet chilli sauce, but the sweet chilli sauce is the stuff you can get at the store. Their salad has a nice light vinaigrette on it. Their Tom Yum soup is sour, threw us off initially and if you get it medium heat, it's really spicy and the spice coats everything. The pineapple fried rice is a really large serving, almost seems likes it's supposed to be shared by the table. Again, medium heat is pretty spicy, but on the pineapple fried rice it's a slow build and it lingers for a long time. That being said, the spice is only in the mouth and doesn't burn the stomach.Vegetarian options: Lots of tofu or imitation meat optionsDietary restrictions: Can be veganParking: Parking is a crap shootKid-friendliness: Easy with the spice level, medium is not for beginnersWheelchair accessibility: First floor, no steps“

“we had tofu pad thai and tofu green curry noodles and they were both amazing. i love thai food and have been to at least 10 diff thai places in different states too, but this is hands down in my top three favorites. the tofu in my pad thai was cooked to perfection, crispy but not too much and the portions were great. we loved the thai tea from here too, their style was more creamy than i’ve had at other places (or how i make it myself) but it was tasty and makes me want to make it like that at home :) great service too everyone was nice and it was great thank you“

“I really loved my experience here! I ordered the fried rice and a crab & cheese (crab rangoons) and it was all very delicious. The service was really good too. I feel like places that are a smaller dining-in area can be intimidating, especially when we were the first party to be sitting in there tonight. But since we were confident and content, it really made for no big deal and there were many others who came in for dine-in/carry-out while we were there.“

“I think Andy's has the best Thai food in Chicago. It's a traditional Thai menu, with a few superlative chef's specials like wild boar red curry and spicy udon special pad Thai. For appetizers, we usually go for the grilled meatballs (pork, fish, shrimp and beef), the grilled squid in spicy Thai chili sauce, tod mun (fish cakes),or the ever-reliable chicken satay. For entrees, the curries are all excellent, as are basil fried rice, basil ground chicken, pad pred catfish, pad Thai, or any of the other noodle dishes. The restaurant is decorated in a sleek, spartan manner, but it's not by any means a hole-in-the-wall Thai place. Service is always pleasant and responsive. Highly recommended.“

“I come here for the Bring It On Noodles. This is a soup that tastes like nothing I've ever had. It combines the best of Thai flavors. The soup is spicy, tangy, sweet, savory, and packed with umami flavor. All of the elements of this soup pair so well together. 10/10 for this soup that I have damn near once/week. The owner knows me well at this point. Please taste this soup!“

“We just moved to Portage Park and have been here several times. The sushi is so fresh and good quality, service is absolutely outstanding and Kay always remembers us and makes us feel like family. I'm sad the weather is warming up because the Tom Kha soup is out of this world! Tried the wings for the first time today and the seasoning they sprinkle on them is a magic dust of chili and lime, crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside.“

“We have eaten here twice, once dine-in and later, take-out. The delivery was faster than they promised online, and the food was hot. I can say without qualification that I have never had better Thai in three decades of trying. The flavors in each dish are vibrant and sometimes surprising ... it's an experience I expect at a Michelin starred restaurant, but from takeout. Wtf.“
