“We love Montri Thai. It is close to home and has a nice variety of food. The staff are authentically nice and helpful. It is a small business, so sometimes there is a wait when they get really busy, but it is worth it. Staff really try to make everything right.“

“Unique flavors if you are familiar with Thai food in the states. The menu had a few surprises. And the staples had very well balanced and thoughtful construction. I enjoyed this much more than I expected to for a Thai place in a strip mall. Really cute inside. Good service.“

“Real Thai authentic food Thank you 😋“

“We had Somsri’s Thai Cuisine for the first time tonight and everything we ordered was delish! The crab rangoons, basil rice, and massaman curry were fire! Definitely a new favorite spot close to home 🫶🏽“

“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!“

“Completely authentic. Great service“

“I found this little gem when searching for Thai food in the area. I can tell you right now that the prices are more than reasonable for the ample portions they have. If you think Bua is even remotely expensive then you should try White Crane in Naperville. That place is way overpriced for the same food. Bua is tucked away in a small strip. Not a lot of traffic. We didn’t need any reservations when we walked in after 7:40 pm. We were seated right away. The owner is very friendly and attentive. Food came out fast and fresh. We ordered Thai ice tea, beef pad si-ew, tofu pad thai, massaman curry, and mango sticky rice.

-Thai ice tea 5 - very refreshing. I like the glass it came in.
-beef pad si-ew 4 - beef was tough and chewy. Not sure if it’s because we came in closer to closing time. The sauce and noodles were good. Noodles are a little chew.
-tofu pad thai 5 - noodles are chewy and sauce isn’t bland. Good amount of tofu pieces. Colorful dish with the sufficient amount of veggies.
-beef massaman curry 4 - not spicy. Very creamy. Could use a bit more flavor. Good amount of meat but beef was overcooked. A bit chewy and tough.
-mango sticky rice 5 - big pieces of mango. Sticky rice was a little sweet. Seasonal dessert only.“

“Authentic Thai restaurant with great service. Green curry was slightly sweet but the chilli oil and hot sauce made it taste amazing. Loved the chilli oil - the spice level is perfect for Indian palette.

Spicy minced chicken fried rice (Kra Pao) was very mild and flavorful.“

“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!“

“Love this place. Authentic Thai food in Wheaton. Take out or dine in - bith are great. Plenty of good choices - the Tom Yum soup is legit as is their noodle dishes. I keep coming back. And if you like it spicy, they'll be happy to oblige. .“

“Bambu Thai Cuisine is a true hidden gem — a perfect blend of flavor, freshness, and hospitality. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a relaxed, inviting atmosphere. The staff is incredibly attentive without being intrusive, and the service is consistently excellent from start to finish.

Let’s talk about the food — absolutely outstanding! Every dish we ordered was bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and made with clearly fresh ingredients. The portion sizes are generous (seriously, come hungry or plan to take some home), and you can tell there’s real care in every bite. I especially appreciated how balanced the meals were — bold spices without being overwhelming, fresh herbs, and perfectly cooked proteins. You can taste the authenticity and passion behind each dish.

Whether you're going for a classic like Pad Thai or venturing into something new like their specialty curries, you won’t be disappointed. Even the sides and sauces feel crafted, not just added on. And for those who care about nutrition — it’s a refreshing change to find food this delicious that still feels wholesome and energizing. Everything tasted vibrant, not heavy — like it was made to nourish, not just fill.

The atmosphere itself adds to the experience — calm, clean, and thoughtfully designed, with subtle Thai décor and soft music that complements the meal without overpowering conversation.

All in all, Bambu Thai Cuisine is an easy 5-star experience across the board: amazing food, stellar service, and a vibe that makes you want to linger a little longer. I’ll definitely be returning soon — and bringing friends. Highly recommended!Great food, huge quantities, great service tasty fresh nutritious.“

“Truly a beautiful small family business.

I come here a lot and I never see this place packed, but it should be. Sure, it’s not your charming dine-in experience. Makes you feel like you’re eating street food inside. Needs some help with the ambience but the food hits. Those women crank it out and it’s all delicious too. Best pad Thai around.

10/10 recommend“

“To me, Thana Thai beats every other restaurant on the Lake. Everything on the menu is amazing and is super consistent. No matter how you feel about the price, to me it is worth coming back and is becoming my number one place for my favorite dishes. The Thai Fried rice reminds of my favorite place that closed down, and having found Thana Thai has filled a tremendous void.

Do not skip out on this place.

Vegetarian options: You can add Tofu to just about everything.“

“man, i love tai san chef😙“

“Bangkok Village is hands-down one of the most charming and delicious spots we’ve been to! From the moment we walked in, we felt a welcoming, cozy atmosphere with warm lighting, tasteful décor, and a calm, relaxing vibe that made it easy to settle in and enjoy the experience.

The staff here is outstanding—friendly, attentive, and genuinely happy to guide you through the menu. They didn’t just take our order; they took time to answer questions, make recommendations, and ensure everything came out exactly as we hoped. It felt like they truly cared about our dining experience.

Now, the food—this is where Bangkok Village really shines. Every dish was fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with authentic flavor. You can taste the quality in every bite, from the vibrant herbs to the perfectly balanced spices. The Pad Thai was a perfect mix of sweet, savory, and tangy, with just the right amount of crunch from the peanuts. The Green Curry was rich and creamy, with tender vegetables and a depth of flavor that made us slow down just to savor every spoonful. And the Drunken Noodles? Absolutely addictive—bold, spicy, and satisfying.

One of the highlights for us was how family-friendly the restaurant is. The environment was relaxed enough that we could enjoy a meal without worrying about feeling rushed, and the staff was so kind to the kids, even bringing them extra rice and recommending milder dishes they would enjoy.

The portion sizes are generous, and the prices are very fair for the quality you receive. Everything tasted fresh and made to order, and the presentation made each dish look like something out of a magazine.

We left completely satisfied, with leftovers in hand, and already talking about what we’re going to try on our next visit. Bangkok Village is the kind of place where you can come for a casual weeknight dinner, a special occasion, or even just to pick up some amazing takeout—and know it’s going to be a great experience every time.

If you’re craving authentic Thai food that’s cooked with love, served with care, and enjoyed in a welcoming atmosphere, Bangkok Village is the place to be. Highly recommend it to anyone who loves great flavors and great hospitality!“

“We are new to the area and we’re looking for our new favorite Thai place, we found it last week! Food was delicious, service was great! Definitely will come back and bring friends with us.“

“Excellent Thai food prepared fresh and served“

“nice people good food clean place“

“We came here because Katy’s was too full. For some reason, their customer base is all white people, not Asian. Mai Thai had plenty of tables free. I felt a little bad since they closed in half an hour. I don’t understand why Asian restaurants close so early in Illinois compared to other States. We ordered chicken satay, Thai bbq chicken, green curry with beef, Thai custard.

-chicken satay 5 - the chicken was very tender and juicy. It tastes great with the peanut sauce.
-Thai bbq chicken 5 - don’t sleep on this entree. The chicken was so flavorful and succulent, you don’t really need the Thai sweet and sour sauce. The sauce does give it a more tangy taste.
-green curry with beef 5 - it is spicy but the enjoyable kind of spicy. Not the kind of spicy that is just hot and you don’t want to take another bite. It has a nice milky texture from the coconut milk. You may need to ask for more rice.
-Thai custard - 4.5 - just the right amount of sweetness, not too heavy.“

“Great food and people. Highly recommended!!!“

“Clean and tasty, excellent friendly service and priced fair-ish.

I had the Pad Kee Mao w/tofu. The dish was steaming hot and the portion huge!

I ordered it “high spice” and well, that did not happen but that’s fine. I asked for chili paste. Just that most times food cooked with spices is far better than food with spice added on top. The tofu was excellent and plentiful. I did not taste any basil. Tons of fresh vegetables.

If I lived here I would come frequently. I would only ask them to use less oil because there’s a lot of glistening oil left over on the plate. For most people who pay attention: way too oily“

“All staff was friendly and the food was good. Clean and cozy environment - great little place to go to. Right across from Naperville Metra station so convenient if you have a wait!“

“My boyfriend and I came in on New Years Day and we was the only 2 in there which was no issue. The food was EXCELLENT, wish there was bigger portions but the food was top notch. I do NOT eat sushi but I did this night because of my boyfriend and it was SO GOOD. Great job...will be back.“

“The BEST Spicy Tuna Hand Rolls on the planet!“

“Just recently moved to Bloomingdale. First time trying this restaurant. It was by far the best Chinese food we have ever had! Shrimp fried rice actually had a lot of shrimp. All the food was absolutely delicious. We will definitely be making this our go-to restaurant for Chinese food.“

“Ever since I moved to Naperville, it’s been hard to find a good tasting Asian restaurant. I found this restaurant and tried their lunch special. I was so impressed, I brought my daughter to dinner. The food and service were wonderful with a reasonable price. I will be back.“

“We finally tried Chinese from Yes, wow! we will be regulars from here on!! Great quality food, everything we tried was amazing!!!“
