The owners and staff are always super nice and the food is fantastic. I recommend supporting this local Des Plaines business. It’s two doors down from the new Giuseppe‘s location for reference“

“I've been searching for a good Asian food since I move to the area 5 years ago. This is it!!! Food was perfectly cooked, made with super fresh ingredients and was so, so delicious! It is a small family owned businesss too. Loved it!!! It will be my new go-to for sure.“

“I haven’t eaten inside the restaurant yet but we order take out almost weekly. We recently moved to the suburbs from Chicago and have been disappointed with the Thai places we’ve tried. We’ve finally found our go to place to order from! Food is always delivered still warm and fresh. You can choose your spice level and even the medium be quite spicy so order accordingly. We love this place and hope it stays around!“

“Love at first bite!

I can't say enough about how well both lunch specials tasted. Peak level of flavors and a warm touch of authentic family cooking. The pad thai sauce was amazing and an instant recommendation. The Pad kee mao noodles texture were tender and bouncy. The spice was above medium and enhanced the meal. The teas had a balanced sweetness and plenty of textures.
The music playlist matched the cozy and bold color pops. The staff were very friendly and offered some samples of the delicious Ube ice cream. Over all my new favorite Thai restaurant and will explore more of the menu.“

“I like the Pad. Thai. And Garlic Chicken.“

“Awesome as always! Exactly what I ordered. Delicious!“

“A husband and wife duo cranking out delicious Thai food — we’ve been going here for years and absolutely love it. If there is ever a seasonal dessert, don’t skip it! The coconut cake is our favorite, but the keylime and pumpkin pie with sweet sticky rice are equally delicious. Highly recommend — come out and support a local business!“

“Pleasant atmosphere, we went for lunch and were the only family dining inside but noticed a lot of orders for pickup.
Big portions, reasonably priced.
Clean bathroom. Located in a strip mall.
Not the best Thai restaurant we've been to, but it wasn't bad!“

“My family comes by rather frequently but i've never left a review. The food is Exceptional. The chicken satay with the peanut sauce is full of flavor and tender. The kanom jeeb is cooked to perfection as well, it had a very nice and tender texture. Additionally, their thai curry, pad see ewe, and fried rice are full of flavor and portioned very generously. Apart from food the service is very nice and friendly. Overall very good, give it a try.“

“We stopped by looking for a good meal and we found this gem. The decorations were amazing and the food was absolutely delicious. We had fried tofu and edamame for appetizers and everything came out quickly and efficiently. The fired tofu had a satisfying crunch with every bite and was not overly greasy like other places. Main course was Chicken teriyaki don, the chicken was flavored very well and the meal came together with the sauce. It was a beautiful balance of flavor and texture and we left very satisfied. We are looking forward to our next visit!“

“Food was fresh and delicious. Service was great and prices are very reasonable.“

“Wonderful restaurant. Good menu selection. service attentive and friendly. Definitely eat here when you can. Lemonade was delightful.“

“I arrived an hour before closing after googling restaurants that were near me and still open. The space is small and there is a column in the middle of the dinning space that really seems out of place. I ordered the basil chicken drunken noodles and although I wished they used more noodles, the flavor was definitely there! This restaurant is kind of out of the way for me but I'll be back to try more on the menu. If anyone reading this has a recommendation, please reply and let me know!“

“food is good, with a nice variety on the menu...only problem tonight was that the food took 2 hours for delivery...and the only thing the driver said was that they were busy...“

“I grew up in Brunei and their food is the closest i have felt to home. I ordered the Nasi Lemak, kuih lapis and roti paratha.“

“Hands down the best tom kar soup I've ever had. The red curry was delicious with just the right amount of spice. It felt like someone's grandma was in there cooking. The service was amazing the staff was attentive all at a great price.“

“This cute little spot nestled in the heart of Norwood park steps from the train station is a hidden neighborhood gem. One of the best Thai food places in the area with staff that is really friendly complete with a cozy dine in area with BYOB option for a fun night out with friends or family. I am a long time native of the area and have seen restaurants come and go and I have to say I am so pleased that Nan and her family's restaurant is a mainstay . It is important to support local business and I am proud to give a shout out to one of my favorite places to eat in the area. The green curry is one of my favorite. They also have a great selection of rolls as well. Great lunch menu options and a staff that remembers your regular order and greets you with a smile every time.“

“Party of 2 Did all appetizers Very good Hearty portions Good service Would go again“

“I walked in for pickup and ordered chicken pad Thai. It only took about 7ish minutes and they were really kind. Brought it back to my hotel and really enjoyed my meal. I got some spicy chili sauce to put on it, but was not as spicy as I hoped. Doesn’t really matter it all tasted really good. If you’re in this area I’d recommend grabbing something from here.“

“I've been wanting to try this place for a long time since I drive pass it often. Today me and my husband tried it the first time for lunch. Very very good. My husband is very particular when it comes to Asian food since he is Asian himself and has his spots in the city we visit. We ordered a few things to share and try. The portions are very generous and we ordered too much as usual but we wanted to try several things. We had the shrimp soup in coconut milk and veggies ( I can't remember the name). Very good. I would come back for that. Also we had the Papaya salad. To me, this was the only thing I probably wouldn't order again. It wasn't bad, but I prefer my husbands which is hotter and a few more things in it. Then we ordered a chicken skewer with a peanut curry sauce. This was great. Very tender and the sauce omg . I asked the server if he could bring a tiny little bowl with some pho broth to taste it. My husband is a pain in the butt about his pho in the suburbs. He approved of it. That's a complement to them then haha. I ordered the drunken noodles with shrimp Thai spice level. And omg yesss! So good. I can't wait to take my older son here, he will love it. My husband got the glass noodles with crispy duck. It was so darn good and the duck was perfect. Soft, crispy but not oily. We also had Thai tea. Very good. We will definitely be back to try more of the menu.“

“Wonderful food and service. Will definitely be back“

“Very good and tasty food. Friendly service. Loved the sweet and sour shrimp..“

“I love this place. Especially the one on Irving park always good food, service and environment.“

“Yum I feel like they changed there peanut sauce :(“

“I find some of the low reviews here baffling. I think some people may be confusing this restaurant with other Chinese restaurants due to its rather non descript name. Make no mistake, the food here is excellent and punches way above its price point.Coming in the first time I was pessimistic. It seemed your standard pre prepared food menu ready to dish out quickly to the lunch crowd panda express style. I quickly became a huge fan after eating large well prepared portions I would expect from a normal sit down restaurant. Yes it's your standard generic fare but made so much better.Great food, great price. Appreciate these places, the owners care about making something good.“

“Food is very fresh and delicious“

“Great food every time love it“

“Everything was delicious 😋 the crazy noodles 🍝 amazing 😉 thank you 🙏“

“Over 20 years ago I started eating at their original Lincoln Park location. Today, their delicious food keeps me coming back time after time. It helps that the restaurant is staffed by the nicest people in the world. When I call for pickup they know my order (lad nar with chicken and Japanese gyoza) and they have it ready in ten minutes. Ten minutes!“

“omg i had the taro root smoothie the best smoothie i ever had!! food was great 2 I had the eggplant and beef“
