Super affordable and delicious noodles! Fast and friendly service
The place has constant turnover, which is good. There are a lot of Thais so you know it'll be good. The change their menu weekly, so follow their IG. Staff is super nice. It's more of an in and out kind of place. Water is available for you to grab yourself. The food and beverages are delicious!!!! All the food is fantastic that we tried.

The Khao Soi there was so delicious! Reminded me of the Khao Soi I've had in Thailand! I definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting authentic Thai food.

If it weren't for this restaurant being off the beaten path on a sleepy stretch of Lawrence Ave, you might mistake it for Bangkok by the sheer number of Thai people packed in to eat their delicious noodles and other Thai eats.
They completed a renovation in 2025 that makes the space much more inviting and clean. This is still very much a Thai restaurant for Thai people and you can expect table condiments, and writing down your own order to hand to staff. If you're NOT Thai, I recommend checking in with a server and ordering with them to make sure you get what you want.
The food is good and comes out fairly quickly. I recommend egg noodles in tom yum soup with bbq pork and wontons!

Amazing food and service. Staff was super accommodating for first timers. Really seems like a street food environment. Tom Yum was amazing. However, this is not a safe space for peanut allergies. Cross contamination is prevalent even for “peanut free” broths. Probably should go without saying for Thai cuisine though. But if you’re really sensitive to peanuts this is not the place for you

Finally got the chance to visit Noodles Party Thai Cuisine in Chicago, and it was amazing from start to finish! Authentic Thai dishes, bold flavors, and the sweetest Thai hospitality from the owner. You can really feel the love and pride in every plate. Loved every minute of being there. 100% recommend to anyone looking for real Thai food!
A hidden gem with amazing flavors, Great value for money! The portions were generous, and the taste was exceptional.

My bsf and I decided to give this place a try after their rebranding. They are only open two days a week with a rotating menu so we must visit again after our first great experience here. We started with the longan tea which is sweet and refreshing, it went great with the spicy soup we had. For entrees, we shared the pink noodles soup and the fish ball tomyum soup, both with thin rice noodles. The pink noodles soup is interesting since it was my first time trying it but it was good. The fishball tomyum noodles soup is spicy but it was so good, we finished the last drop of soup while fighting for our lives 😂. For dessert, we got the shaved ice to cool everything down. It comes with some corn and jellies underneath, we didn’t really like the bread chunks as they don’t compliment the dish. The people here are really sweet and we would come back to try the boat noodles and the braised duck noodles 😋

Great food so authentic. Very friendly service. Very crowded in a small restaurant but they def tried to speed it up and make it feels home for you. Two of us ordered three entrees, one appetizer and one dessert which is def too much. But we absolutely enjoyed all dishes. We got the meatballs which you can tell are made from fresh fish. We got two noodle dishes and one braised pork with rice. Absolutely enjoyed the rich ingredients and flavor of both. Coconut as the dessert and you can tell it’s homemade. 5/5 for sure

I grew up with the scorching heat of SEA. Maybe that's why every year, when the winter chills start to sneak up, my homesickness always follows close behind. I’m not sure if it was fate or coincidence but I stumbled upon Noodles Party on one of those cold days that made the city feel especially far from home.
The moment I stepped inside, I was mesmerized. The space is so unapologetically authentic: the glass display case stacked full of skewers in the corner, the branded tarps covering the tables, the condiment caddies on top of the tables. For a second, Chicago seemed to blur away behind me and I felt like I was back at a hawker stall somewhere at home.
Their menu is small and rotates weekly. It usually consists of a few Thai noodle soups and street food dishes. To me, the noodle soups are the highlights with their incredibly rich and complex broths. So far, this is the only spot in the city that made me stop and think wow, this feels a little like home.
Chicago winters will still be cold but at least now I know where to go when my hands need to be kept warm with a steaming fragment of home.
