46 Best Thai Restaurants near Des Plaines

“A few years ago I didn’t know about this place but my sister recommended it. Now my family and I order pick up 1 or 2 times each month. 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“

“The food is high consistent quality, delicious, and good portions. I love this place, my only complaint is that they close at 8 on the weekends. I always want to order from here around 9pm.“

“this place was great the service and the food 👌“

“Delicious and fresh Thai food that can’t be beat! The crab Rangoons are the best around, the Real Thai roll was so fresh and absolutely mouth watering delicious! I always get pad Thai and it’s truly one of the best I’ve had! And the Tiger Cries entree is phenomenal!“

“Pleased to see an authentic Thai restaurant here. They have diverse dishes that take risks with Thai spice-level and ingredients like strong Thai fish sauce. While the spice was not spicy enough, it was still delicious. I won't order often (I am from NJ) but when I am in the area, this is my new go-to in the Rosemont vicinity.“

“Words cannot give this food justice! I’ve been in the city since 2014 searching for my go-to Thai spot and I FINALLY found it last night after my friend suggested it. The service and friendliness of the staff were top tier and every dish we had was out of this world. What a gem of a place. The flavors of the pad thai were unmatched, and don’t even get me started on the custard taiyaki with ice cream. This chef’s talent is unmatched. Can’t wait to come back and to order for delivery and pickup too!“

“Real Thai authentic food Thank you 😋“

“Stopped there on our way to AllState Arena, amazing food, and such a kind owner! Super clean and beautiful inside! We had a vegetarian in our group, and this little gem had so many options for her!“

“I’m certain I’ve tried almost everything on this menu. Today I tried the Penang curry and it was absolutely delicious! I had a bit of extra sauce left over so I dipped some fried chicken in that. Probably one of the best ideas I’ve had. I’ve never had bad device here. Everyone is so nice and friendly! This is one of my favorite Thai spots“

“Only place that sells khao soi that I’ve found in the area, and it’s delicious.

Small little place where you can sit but afaik doesn’t have a public restroom (I may be wrong!) so just keep that in mind.

Take out or not, you’re going to be getting fantastic Thai food made with care. You may be waiting a bit when you eat in-restaurant, so consider take out if you don’t have time.“

“Riquísima la comida excelente atención“

“อารหารอร่อยไปอุดหนุนกันนะคะ ลองชิมดูจะคุ้มแค่ไปหน“

“Excellent food! Atmosphere was modern. Staff friendly.“

“Just ordered BNK today for carryout and was so pleased with the portion sizes and the food was so fresh and made to order! I'll be back!“

“Surprisingly very good for a suburban Thai restaurant. The pad kee mao was one of the best I've ever had. I got it with the crispy noodles which were good but I didn't expect them to be super crispy, like a tortilla chip. I thought they'd be a mix of soft and crispy like I've had in other Thai restaurants. Next time I think I'll get the regular soft noodles.“

“It is a family run restaurant. Everything was delicious. We had chicken dumplings, chicken broccoli, chive dumplings(veg), papaya salad, tom yum soup, mango sticky rice, red curry tofu. Everything was perfect 👌. We will definitely visit again.“

“I love the taste of Thai food here and the warm service.“

“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!“

“Food here is very authentic!! Everything is so delicious. They have the best Chicken satay I’ve ever had.“

“Casual, affordable place. I had the wide noodle Pad Thai with tofu and it was good. Friendly customer service and no pressure. Go here if you want to relax and have some decent food. I've been here a few times. Oak Park is charming as well.“

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

“I dined at Neko Sushi and tried their tuna and avocado fried rolls, and they are the reason I’ve already been back three times in the past two weeks since finding this neighborhood gem. My fiancé ordered the shrimp in a blanket and they were perfectly crispy and packed with flavor. I had the ramen both times and it was absolutely delicious. My fiancé tried the pad thai with shrimp on one visit and the basil shrimp fried rice on another, and both dishes were full of flavor and so satisfying. Neko Sushi has quickly become one of our favorites. Everything we’ve tried has been consistently fresh and tasty. Oh and they are BYOB!“

“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.“

“Delicious food, very friendly staff. One of our faves!“

“Delish and very fresh! So yummy!“

“I love the the taste of their fried rice level 10 spicy and their Mongolian beef. Out of all the restaurants I've tried in belmont cragin this is my top one. The flavor of their food is delicious. 1 order of rice and a protein is good for 2 people.“

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

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

“I met the owner he was very personable and professional. I got my food delivered and I might add it was just as good as if I was Dining in. I got pineapple fried rice cooked with ingredients just like I like it and it was delicious. I also got Tom Kha soup and crab Rangoon’s they were good as well. Thanks again for having great service Mr. Penny“

“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...“

“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.“

“First time ordering Thai food and it was delicious. A friend posted on facebook how good it was so we tried it. Will definitely be ordering again soon!“

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

“The first time I ever visited Ruk, the owner was incredibly nice and offered many recommendations on things to do, sights to see, & places to go as I’m not local to the area. We chatted for a while and I enjoyed the cashew pad Thai I ordered with peanut sauce. Going back year after year, Ruk is a staple for dinner the night I arrive in the city. Always nice to catch up and relax there.“

“I ordered food for the first time today. The overall flavor of what I ordered was good but the beef they used is very tough and chewy. I ordered carry out so I really didn't stay in the restaurant but my first impression was that it's very crowded and very chaotic. The owner was very nice“

“Food is very fresh and delicious“

“Amazing authentic Thai food. Great value for money. My go to restaurant every time I am in the area.
Amazing Pad Se Ew, sauce is great, broccolis are not overcooked as they should be, allowing the extra crunch factor instead of a completely soft vegetable.
Wonderful chicken satay paired with peanut sauce and a dish of cucumbers, a good combination.
The Pad Thai was delicious, portion was plenty for me. Spiciness well suited my taste.
Overall, excellent food and service!“

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

“It is our favorite lunch spot! So friendly and very good food!“

“I love this place.! The food has always delivered for me. I have been ordering from this place for a long time now. That being said recently I have noticed that the smoky chicken that I absolutely love from this place (no other place around me seems to have smoky chicken option) has had a bit of a texture change from how it used to be sometime ago. It seems to be a little more fried/crunchy rather then tender which is where it is the most delicious. I can't describe it exactly but I know it does not have the same texture as it once did. It is still very good regardless and I will continue to get it but I hope this gets seen and maybe offer some kind of explanation but I recommend this place!“

“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!“

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