50 Best Thai Restaurants near Northfield

“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!“

“Love Love this place!!!! Food is amazing and the staff are so friendly and attentive!!“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“Great dinner, service and atmosphere!“

“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.“

“Having wanted to dine here. Finally did! Wow, amazing cuisine.“

“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!“

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

“Excellent food and excellent service. Everything was delicious. For appetizers, we shared the shrimp Vietnamese rolls, the crab rangoons, and the Moo Ping. For dinner, we had the pork pad Thai, the Panang curry with beef, and the Kee Mow with tofu. All of it was very tasty!“

“Been going here for a very long time. owners are great , food is amazing. Chicken Larb is very good. Nam Tok. They make a very good Thai coffee“

“We tried the
- Pad Thai with tofu and added broccoli separately — it was absolutely delicious! The homemade Pad Thai sauce stood out — rich, flavorful and quite different from the usual ones we have had. You can really taste the freshness and balance of flavors.

We also ordered the Bangkok Chicken, which had a nice flavor and seasoning. However, the chicken pieces were a bit too fried for our taste, though the overall flavor was still good.

Overall, great experience and would definitely come back for that amazing Pad Thai!“

“Lady behind the counter WAS rude so the comments are true but I think that’s just how she is(not that it’s ok) I called and asked for pananag curry she said “what meat you want?” I said “what meat do you have?” She said “WhAt mEaT YOU WanT?” .I said “chicken”So I said chicken. I went in and no “hi” or “ how are you ?” Just right away “23.50! HOW YOU PAY?” I said Apple Pay she said “23.50 don’t forgot tip okay?” Obviously I didn’t tip but chicken parang curry was good . Crab Rangoon was skimpy .“

“Good food. ❤️ the staff. Local eatery 10 minute walk from my house.“

“Ben’s is my go-to Thai restaraunt. I’ve ordered takeout from them loads of times and have always been happy. The portions are generous and I feel it is a good value for my money. My favorite is the chive dumplings (although they stick together so I wish they would package them differently). They also have a weekday lunch special that is a good deal.

I saw someone mention how they didnt like their food and had a problem with the to-go cups having a lot of ice in it. I believe they freeze the styrofoam cups with water so there is a cup-shaped large ice cube in their to go drinks. Simple solution is to ask for no ice :)

I’ve never dined in, but it is your standard small hole-in-the-wall Asian restaurant with just a few tables. No frills. Good food.“

“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“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

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

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

“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. �“

“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!“

“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“

“Best veggie Egg Rolls ever. It was my first time here so I played it kind of safe and got Cashew Chicken. It was excellent , large portion, with just a hint of spiciness ( which enhanced flavor). Tried the Coconut Milk Ice Cream. Good but unexceptional. Over all excellent and reasonably priced for what you get.“

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

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

“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!“

“Cool.“

“I love this place! My husband and I are pretty regular customers for over 10 years and we never had a bad meal at Siam Paragon. Super friendly owners and servers - great food variety - Japanese, Thai, Chinese and Korean. Everything is very fresh and tasty. Also big bang margaritas and liche martinis are strong and delicious. I highly recommend Siam Paragon - it’s a true Evanston gem.“

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

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

“Food was delicious! Wait staff super friendly. Came out quick. Had never tried this place before and we will definitely return. 8/10 recommend.“

“For someone who grew up in Thailand, I always have higher expectations for Thai food. Thai Yasothon’s food is made with traditional presentation and spices, the portions are generous-fresh and well prepared. Always stop by here to support our friends Aom and support our neighbor hood restaurants. We did dine in many times and also catering at home, our guests love them😋“

“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!“

“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“

“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...“

“We enjoyed Beyond Thai restaurant. The owner helps on the dining room. The food is prepr bcdf ared fresh. We had crispy egg rolls, tom yum soup, delicious seaweed salad with cucumbers, and salmon fillet with rice topped with a large mound of fresh Asian style vegetables. We had tasty Emerald noodle dishes and pad see eiew.“

“Hands down the best Thai food in town! Every time I’m in Chicago, no matter how far I am, I have to stop by. Their Thai basil chicken is my absolute fave—so good!! 🔥🍽️”

Any good here is all good! Thai fried rice! Curry!😍😍😍“

“the food is delicious

( I had the green curry with chicken + Thai peanut spring rolls)

it's more than reasonably priced

from what I gathered, this place is family owned and has been passed down

The owner and staff were friendly + welcoming

the ambiance of the place is also colorful and very inviting! Definitely somewhere I would take my partner out to for a cozy date

If you're looking to support local - GIVE THESE PEOPLE YOUR MONEY in exchange for delicious food and great service :)“

“I have been here many times and with all of the Thai food options in this neighborhood and the surrounding area, this place is the best. The food is fresh, hot, and incredibly flavorful with standard options and more regionally unique options as well. Highly recommend.“

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

“My first time ever having authentic Thai Food!

It was amazing! Not perfect, but cLose!

I had the Drunken NoodLes Spicy 10 with Tofu!

It was actually spicy. Needs just a little something idk. Maybe cardamom.

My picture doesn’t do it justice. And I can’t even finish. It’s so freakin yummy!

I rate it 9.3/10“

“Very delicious food and I really Love TomYum Raman 🍲“

“If you’re a fan of authentic Thai noodles, this place is a must-visit! Every Tuesday and Wednesday, they serve delicious and authentic Thai noodle dishes at incredibly affordable prices. The flavors are rich and perfectly balanced, just like you’d find in Thailand.

The restaurant is always bustling with customers, which speaks to its popularity and quality. Even when I arrived as early as 6:00 PM, there was already a line, and I had to wait for a seat. However, the wait is absolutely worth it.

I highly recommend visiting this place if you’re craving authentic Thai noodles. Just make sure to go early and be prepared for a little wait—it’s all part of the experience!“

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

“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.“
