Been here a couple of times and the food is always on point. They serve big portions, the flavors are deep, the staff is kind, and the restaurant is calming. They’ve earned my business as my go-to Thai spot in Logan

We love love LOVE Dena Kitchen! Its affordable, large portions, and incredible food. All of the curry’s are amazing (Red is our fave!) and everything else we’ve had has also been incredible. Bonus points for having so many vegetarian options.

Very good red Thai curry. Actually added spice (and left more spice for me at the table). Great flavor. Enough for two meals with an extra side of rice.The owner was very nice and super responsive to questions.

I got the Pad Thai and spring rolls which were delicious. The only thing I wish was better was the dine in service and temperature inside (it was hot outside, so I understand). But, after they noticed we were inside, they served us really politely and timely. Loved the food!

Delicious Thai food and fantastic personal attention and service. The Pad Phrik was awesome, great mix of spicy and savory and very filling. The Thai iced coffee was sweet and delicious.

This weekend, I traveled to Chicago with a few friends to attend a music festival, so I wasn't able to explore the Chicago food scene as thoroughly as I would have liked. We were able to make some last-minute lunch plans at Dena's Kitchen yesterday, however.When we arrived, one of the restaurant's employees greeted us warmly. He gave us time to peruse the menu and relax before we placed our orders.For starters, we got crab Rangoons and Vietnamese spring rolls. Then I got a Thai iced coffee and chicken panang curry for my meal.The lunch arrived promptly and was generously portioned. Everything was great, and we departed with a few leftovers and happy faces.

Honestly better than I expected! We were walking past this and wanted to try out some thai food. It was very authentic and the menu had a good variety of food. Thai tea was really good and not just from the bottle. It was empty when we went and our food came out quick. There was a credit card fee of 3.75% so they recommend you pay cash. I got the pad see ew and I wish it was just spicy. They had nice lullaby music. Overall, good experience to try!
Honestly one of the best pad thai and fried rice dishes I had in a very long time. Fried rice in so many places is flavorless and here it is packed with flavor. Truly a Logan Square gem. Also great prices and owner is very nice. Will come back and probably often.

This is a gem!! Absolute gem of a place. It kind of looks like a hole in the wall, but these are the best places to eat. It's a cute family owned Thai restaurant. Everything I tried was delicious and full of flavor. The fried rice was one of the best I've ever tried. Fair warning, if you ask for something to be a little spicy, it will be spicy!!! The mango sticky rice is a must for dessert.

Delicious food for take away! We got the massaman and red curry, and papaya salad. Awesome. 4 stars instead of 5 on service for the extra charge when using credit card.

What a great hole-in-the-wall!!! Stumbled upon it while walking to a different dine-in spot and was craving Thai food more. I'm so glad we found this place! The food was amazing and freshly prepared. The ton yum soup was so refreshing and the pad Thai had thin noodles inside of the thicker ones I was used to BUT needless to say the flavor was there and delicious. Our server was very nice and welcoming. Was very shocked how empty the place was but lots of pick up orders. Highly recommend dining in though!!

Lovely little spot. With both amazing red and green curry. Good range of dishes but love the fish cake appetizer.
