“Food is very fresh and delicious“

“Delicious 😋 food！ Warm and kind service ! Cozy atmosphere 😊 !“

“This was my second time eating here but 6th time having their food - I think I have confidence in this place to be consistently good. So when I brought my family here visiting for the first time time, for dinner, I was rest assured. We had come in at 8, and put in our order by 820 - all vegetarian with veggies and tofu. 30 minutes go by (nearly closing) and they come back to say they’ve run out tofu. Understandably, we were disappointed. We reluctantly made the modifications to our dishes as it was too late to go anywhere else. 30 more minutes elapse and we’re wondering where our food was; lone and behold, the restaurant had gone out to procure tofu for our dishes. Despite the bad taste the first half left in our mouth, the second half of them going above to fix the issue and make incredible food made up for it. Will come again, but just will confirm the tofu availability beforehand ;)“

“Papaya Salad, Grilled Squid, Crab meat fried rice.“

“I'm obsessed with Chim Thai cousin The dishes are expertly crafted, presentation is stunning, and flavors transport you to Bangkok!“

“I ordered takeout since my husband and I were working from home. We both got the Pad Thai, mine with tofu and his with chicken and beef. We really loved it! The portions were generous, especially the protein, and everything was full of flavor. We’ll definitely be back next time and plan to dine in!“

“great variety of noodles and vegetables. the service was perfect, on a busy Saturday night.“

“First and foremost, the staff is hands down the best! Literally the friendliest staff I’ve ever encountered! And I’ve tried a few things on the menu and nothing has been a let down. Usually I regret straying from “the usual” but I never do here. The crab rangoon is the best I’ve ever had, the wings surprised me with how tasty and well cooked they were, the basil chicken egg rolls were bomb (so is the basil chicken over rice), and the Khao Soi is a best seller for a reason!“

“I love thai food and have been to many different places. This Thai restaurant has to be by far one of the best restaurants and food I had ever had. The customer service was phenomenal; the main server was highly attentive and polite. I loved their pad thai; literally tasted perfect compared to other pad thai dishes from other restaurants. My friend and I ordered their pork pot stickers as well, and they were absolutely divine. The dough was almost sweet and it paired well with the sauce and pork given in the dish. Do not even get me started on the chicken satay. The marinade and peanut sauce for this appetizer exceeded my expectations. Super juicy and flavorful. Overall the food plus the atmosphere was amazing; if I could I would give this place more stars. Thank you Rice and Noodles Thai Food!“

“Absolutely. Amazing. WOW!“

“Eat Fine is a special place. Not only is their menu extensive and their food incredible, they really care about their community, the service is amazing and they always do whatever they can to help you out. But most importantly, their food is top notch. There isn't anywhere I know of that makes such delicious, fresh tasting Thai food, and I'm so lucky to have it in my neighborhood. You really owe it to yourself to visit.“

“gushing about my take out order - I got the fried rice with yellow curry and fried spring rolls. everyone says it feels like someone’s parents making a home cooked meal for you, and it really does. the ingredients were fresh and flavorful. the man who gave me my order was very sweet and helpful, suggesting ways to combine sauces for best flavor and making sure I got everything I asked for. he also provided me with a huge slice of fresh watermelon, specifically to cool down the “thai heat” and it was delish.“

“Great dinner, service and atmosphere!“

“Great food friendly service and reasonably priced“

“We had an absolutely perfect Monday night dinner for two. Getting a reservation was easy and we felt immediately welcomed. Kanlaya offers an intimate and comfortable setting with friendly, personable service from the owner (and chef) herself. Her love and care is very palpable and helped set the tone for a wonderful dining experience.

The food was perfect: well balanced and delicately flavorful with deceptively large portions and beautiful presentation. I've had a fair amount of Thai food over the years and this is among the absolute best. My only regret was not being able to try everything that caught my eye the first time around.

Very highly recommended.“

“Excellent food with the perfect spice level of my Penang curry. Food was fresh, attractive and delicious! Excellent service - our server even let us try a bit of Thai coffee- as neither of us had ever had it. I don’t ever drink coffee and typically don’t like it, but if I were to pick up that habit, I’d drink that stuff for sure-lol! Anna the owner checked in on us and was very attentive to all the guests. I highly recommend this place- and it’s byob!“

“Ordered the big pad Thai and the Blackhawk sushi roll. They had the food ready within 15m. It was delicious! The pad Thai is some of the best I’ve had in a while. And the sushi was fresh and flavorful, nicely rolled. Really happy with the quality and service! Definitely want to keep trying more on the menu!“

“This is the real deal. A must try gem in Forest Park, IL. Thank you for making my son's birthday so special. I can't wait to take my family to dine out at your place.“

“Ordered delivery for the first time thru Uber eats and got the pork blood soup, moo krob, and fermented sausage omelette.
I was slightly disappointed at the portion size of the moo krob and fermented sausage omelette as these were $15-16 dishes and did not include any rice. It turns out that their Thai menu are side dishes that are best with congee, a specialty. I think if you dine in, this is better explained but as someone who looked through their website and ubereats menu, I did not see this at all. I didn’t realize that I was supposed to order the congee until after I looked up Instagram reels explaining Me Dee’s Thai menu. I think more menu pictures or explaining that it doesn’t come with anything else in the food descriptions would be helpful.
The pieces of fermented sausage in the omelette were very little in size and quantity. I was hoping to be able to experience the flavors a bit more so next time I’ll just get the fermented sausage on its own. The omelette itself was tasty.
The pork blood soup is a good portion and very meaty with pork blood, pork belly (the same that they use for moo krob), ground pork, and pork liver I believe. Per uber eats it’s a popular order.

I was hoping to experience authentic Thai flavors/uncommon Thai dishes as pad thai is very common in Chicago. However, disappointed at the cost and portion sizes. Pictures or explanations on the online third party menus would’ve been very helpful. I also had a papaya salad craving and surprisingly did not see it on the menu (or maybe I missed it idk). I’ll give it another shot in the future.“

“The four of us had a great time at this local gem. We had curry with rice, drunken noodles, and two orders of “chef’s gone crazy”—the chef cooked whatever he wanted for us and they were both pleasant surprises! Everything was delicious, and I have to say that their 3/5 spice level is a pretty solid 3/5. You could definitely taste the spiciness, but it wasn’t the main star of the show. If you like your food spicy, I’d say even go higher.“

“We enjoyed their amazing food and the friendly waitress who even anticipated our needs. The environment was clean and welcoming. It was my first time there, and I would recommend it HIGHLY to anyone looking for a pleasant eating experience. I can't praise it enough!!“

“The food here is amazing especially regarding how many gluten free dishes they have. They have the largest gluten free dessert menu I’ve ever seen! So many delicious options that I just keep coming back. They also have a modern, but warm atmosphere that is delightful. This place is clearly a hidden gem and a must try!“

“Just a few blocks from our house, Yindee always serves very good food. Sushi, noodles, rice, whatever, it's always tasty delicious, quick and inexpensive. It's a shame to see so few customers on a Saturday night. It's well worth your visit.“

“We've had asianos 2x so far in the year we've lived here and this far our favorite Asian food close to Brookfield. Sushi was affordable and decent. Drunken noodles were to spicy for me but my husband loved them (I chose option 2 thinking happy medium he wanted spicer) and kids tangy chicken was very yummy. Only issue we had wasn't food at all Asianos uses Uber delivery and they delivered to the wrong house.“

“Good food! What I like about Dena Kitchen there is no msg in their cooking!“

“First time here! Everything was delicious.“

“Food was really good
Excellent customer service
But really small food portion size for the price

Please make sure feed the customer for the money you charge. Nobody likes to go home hungry after paying the chunk of money for food bill.
Thank you“

“I came here on a Thursday night. I had the basil shrimp with vermicelli noodles. It was a 10/10 across the board! The only difference is it could use a little more flavor (for my taste personally) so I added some type of red spicy sauce and it was even better! I also tried their Thai iced tea for the first time which was refreshing. I love how lowkey the restaurant is. It’s very small, but still an intimate setting for a date or family. Our waitress was very attentive, while still being productive. She made an error on a friend of mine’s card and she quickly corrected the error before we left the restaurant. The restaurant gives me a homey feel & I appreciate my entire experience. I would definitely come back here! Especially with the homemade food for a steal!“

“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!“

“Food was very good but they didn't have soup spoons & also rice should always come with your meals. We order Tum Yum Shrimp soup but had to order the rice separately.“

“Amazing Thai food

The customer is very home welcoming.

The owners and the place are
very nice. People.

Best Thai food I've tried all over Chicago and I've tried almost every Thai food“

“order:

⸻

I ordered the Red Curry Chicken for takeout and it was outstanding. The curry had a rich, creamy coconut base with just the right kick of heat, and the chicken was tender and perfectly cooked. The vegetables were fresh and still had a nice crunch, and the portion size was generous enough for leftovers. Even after the drive home, the food stayed hot and flavorful. I’ll definitely be ordering this again! and most of it it’s Halal. Will def be back. Tysm!“

“Fine dining love there food come here to eat everyday excellent service and feels like your at home“

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

“Delicious food & cocktails!“

“Outstanding experience. The atmosphere was sensory friendly with romantic lighting. Fun music but not too loud. Amazing food and service with very affordable prices. My jasmine tea was served in a gorgeous teapot from Thailand. Definitely try the tiramisu. Seems like maybe a takeout spot (at least on weekdays) but definitely worth dining in, too. Can't wait to come back. Thanks again!“

“5 stars for sure! Their takoyaki balls and sushi are top notch! I’m in love with this place. Perfect for a night out“

“My daughter and I stumbled on arriving to this restaurant. The environment was beautiful and it looked very elegant. The food was delicious. I told my daughter that we will return because we loved everything about this restaurant and want to try other food with my son too.“

“Took my husband here one last time to say goodbye to Chicago before moving states; this was one of our favorite places to eat when we began dating 11 summers ago. �“

“Great service Lovely owner and team worker so friendly I’ll always go there because I feel comfortable and I the got the food out of menu too Love love love this place“

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

“We seriously love Pinto Thai Kitchen . The owners are genuine people and the food is great! They are always donating meals to front line workers and contributing to the Evanston community. They have our support! Their fish curries are pretty awesome and their delivery is really fast!“

“When you come in you feel right at home, with orange hues, warming smells and decorative pieces from the culture it can make anyone excited to see what taste will enter their palette.
Every dish you can taste the love poured into it. They are accommodating to any dietary restrictions such as gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, and so on.
Thank you for taking me on this beautiful culinary experience.

Much love.
All is Victory!“

“A wonderful surprise in the neighborhood... everything was delicious and fresh“

“I can't believe I forgot to review Benny Thai. Their lunch specials are delicious and at such a great price! For $10-11 you get your pick off lunch dish, an appetizer and a can of pop. Try the Pad Kee Mao if you like your food spicy, and the Pad See Ew if you don't. You get two egg rolls if you pick them as the app and they are very tasty. Also, the employees there are very friendly and welcoming. Recommended!“

“Terrific food quality is the same as before when it was “ Opart ““

“super authentic, good quality food! great owners and staff!“

“Nice low key spot, very nice service“

“This place is a great place if your in the mood for a thai/mexican fusion!! My partner and I ordered the drunken noodles, Al pastor tacos, Steak Nachos as well as the Thai-Chata. Everything came out delicious and decently priced for great quality food! Will 100% be coming back here“
