I truly can't express my appreciation for this wonderful space. It's my favorite Thai place in the city, their reasonable prices & consistently delicious food keep me coming back frequently. My go-to is the pad see ew with beef, recently tried it with tofu & it still hit just as delicious! The curries are always on point, warm & nourishing. The folks there are also always so sweet & kind. I can't stress enough what a gem this place is, you just have to try it & see for yourself!

The walls are covered in children's drawings and the low light, quiet atmosphere makes it really enjoyable for a calm meal with friends and family.
Every time we can, we try to take people here, and every time, without fail, they leave and tell us how awesome and tasty it was.
I have loved everything I have gotten there--the curry especially! Their Thai Tea is the best I have ever had by MILES, and I recommend it to whoever will listen. They even introduced me to my new favorite snack, which are taro chips.
I think Dena Kitchen is a hidden gem of Logan Square, and more people should stop in. Very excited to eat there again. See you soon!

Dena is so amazing!!! The food is delicious; best Thai I’ve had in Chicago hands down. Also super allergy friendly. I’m corn and nut allergic plus dairy and grains intolerant (aside from rice). I used to live nearby and this was my go-to delivery place for me and my picky teenager. Recently moved back to Chicago and put in an order on NYE. I called back to make sure no nuts on duck noodle soup (incredible!! Must order if you like duck; my son loves the beef noodle) and was patiently given a run down on the no-nuts prep. ❤️ Plus I got a lucky orange as new years’s gift when I picked up order! This is seriously a hidden gem; I almost don’t want to post this in case it blows up! Happy to see 4 years later that Dena is still amazing. Thank you for your excellent food and attention to detail regarding food allergies!

Tom Kha soup was mostly onions and a few super dry strips of tofu. If I come back, I’ll try something else.

So tasty, kind, quick, and wonderful vibes all around. More like ~$20 per person if you get an appetizer. Glad we stopped by!

Love this place and their food. I had a small issue with my order today and they corrected it immediately. Thank you for great food and great service! This is a neighborhood must try!
I’ve only ever had this as takeout but it’s SO good everytime. Reasonably priced and everything I’ve tried has been amazing. I need to go sit down and eat there. It’s perfect.

Very tasty! We ordered tofu pad kee mao and shrimp basil fried rice and both were very large portions (2 dishes is enough for 3/4 people). The pad kee mao was a tiny bit more sour than expected, but it had a delicious char on the noodles and tofu. I do wish the ratio of noodles to veg was a little higher, but it was still very good. No complaints at all on the basil fried rice.

Awesome local Thai spot and worth it everytime if you live in or near Logan. Very reasonable prices and family that owns it are always lovely. Their curry fried rice is amazing! Papaya salad is a favorite of ours as well. Pad Thai and curries are good, but not earth shattering. Inside/decor could use a bit of TLC and is usually pretty quiet, but we always get it to go anyways.

Really lovely little place. Our server was above and beyond friendly. The food was tasty, well priced, and ready to go really quickly. The mango sticky rice we got for dessert was delicious.
