“I eat here often, the food is amazing. Any time I have friends over I suggest going here. They’ve all loved it as well. I think the owners appreciate how much I enjoy their food, and on occasion will surprise me with extra when I take it to go.Highly recommended!“
“3rd time here and might have been the best. Friday night and it was buzzing. We were able to get bar seats and ate there, which was perfect. Live music, food was delish (braised chicken is just so delicious), and everyone on the service team is happy and helpful. This is a fav and we're thankful Evanston is the home of Nakorn!“
“I have an allergy to garlic which is kinda hard to work around at times but the staff basically told me that they will make anything I want work. Super nice and the food was fantastic! Definitely give it a try!Dietary restrictions: If a thai place can work around garlic they can work around anything.“
“The food is delicious. Im really glad I stopped by and tried the pad thai thai iced tea and the crab ragoon . Everything 5 starts!!! Even if the place is small is comfortable and clean! Best of all the waitress/ cashier/ jack of all trades was so nice and so helpful with recommendations. Will be definitely coming back again.“
“I planned on going to dinner there last night (Tuesday) and we found great parking, walked to the restaurant and sadly found out it was closed. As we were about to turn around, Anna appeared and invited us in and cooked dinner.... what other owner would be so generous with her own personal time? We had an incredible evening, great food and the compassion of Anna and her concern for her customers makes us keep going back....Anna's Thai Kitchen deserves a "10." It is my favorite Thai restaurant and every different dish I have ordered has been phenomenal for the quality, freshness and incredible flavor. Anna's restaurant is her heart; she only serves food that she loves! Her menu and her food come from her heart.... open your heart and share in her love!“
“A Cozy Culinary Gem: Delights and Comfort at Chim Thai CuisineThe warmth and inviting atmosphere immediately set the stage for what was to be a memorable dining experience. Nestled in a cozy corner, this restaurant is a haven for Thai cuisine enthusiasts and foodies alike, offering a blend of traditional flavors and a homely ambiance.The Chicken Satay, a dish that stood out for its perfectly grilled texture and the harmonious blend of spices that permeated the tender chicken strips. Served with a side of rich, creamy peanut sauce, each bite was a delightful journey through the vibrant tastes of Thailand.Next on the table were the Pork Rolls, which were nothing short of exceptional. The pork filling was succulent and flavorful, complemented by a dipping sauce that added a tangy and slightly sweet note, making each bite irresistible.The highlight of the evening, however, was the Pork and Wonton Noodle Soup. The noodles, cooked to perfection, tied the whole dish together, making it a profoundly satisfying experience.The restaurant exudes a cozy charm, with its warm lighting and thoughtfully arranged decor, creating an inviting space that complements the dining experience beautifully.I will definitely comeback!“
“Ever since they opened we go out of our way to frequent this place. We have other Thai places within walking distance from our condo but a short drive yields better quality Thai food and wonderful service. Ambiance: The place is super clean which is a plus. If the front of the house is immaculate, I would think the kitchen is the same. The food is amazing. Tiger Cry is amazing and they give a nice size portion compared to other places. Sweet/savory marinated thin slices of beef char-grilled is wonderful. Don't hesitate on the fried shumai- Fried shrimp shu-mai, served with light sweet and sour sauce. Awesome finger food. You can't go wrong with any of the curry dishes. This last round we had the Gaeng Masaman - Masaman curry and potatoes sauteed in coconut milk with peanuts and chicken. Great flavor. So many selections but all have been great! I love the fact you can choose the level of spiciness for each dish depending on your preferences. We go full-tilt hot as hell spicy and it does not disappoint! Pricing is a bit lower than your average Thai places and portions are more generous. 3 dishes for 2 people yields leftovers! Owner is friendly and I can tell he loves what he does and is looking out for the diners. This is the place you want to make sure thrives. Go pay them a visit.“
“My fiancee and I are here after work at Loyola, and it was DELICIOUS. I had Pad Thai, and Sue had something else (my bad for not remembering). A five minute walk north from Loyola. BYOB, and no cork fee. We will definitely be going back soon.Vegetarian options: They can make any dish vegetarian.“
“Best Thai food ever!! The potstickers and pad Thai are toooo die forrrrr! Along with that the Shumi, Crab Rangoons, and Mango sticky rice is fantastic!! Affordable prices, great food and most importantly the best owner in the whole world! Jimmy is the sweetest person ever and you can see how much he cares about each customer! You have to try it outttttt“
“We hosted our daughter's 16th birthday party here. We were a group of 12 people.Chef Patty went above and beyond in communicating with us before the event to make it special for my daughter and her friends.This is the best Thai restaurant in Chicago, hands down.We also were happy to get excellent service and food.Super nice people and restaurant. Highly recommend it.“
“The people were so friendly, very talkative..it reminded me of how Greek families of old ran their own businesses. The food is amazing in look, style presentation and taste. Alot of selections and the first time I tried the coconut ice cream with strawberries my tongue was in love. Love this place.“
“This is my go-to spot for Thai food in the city. A frequent takeout fave but also excellent for dine-in. It's always delicious with generous portions. The staff are consistently welcoming and attentive.Dietary restrictions: Many gluten-free options, clearly labeled on the menu.“
“Rainbow Thai Cuisine Rainbow Thai Cuisine a family owned and operated business. Rainbow Thai Cuisine serves amazingly delicious authentic Thai dishes. We like to place our orders online and select Express Pickup or Delivery. Their online order service is a time saver. We enjoy their take-out options. Best of all, they are open 6-days a week. We enjoy starting with a Thai Ice Tea followed by an appetizer before we enjoy our main dish. The basil leaves beef was recommended to us by the owner. The meal service was quick and the food containers did not leak while holding the steaming food. The meat was tender, the vegetables were fresh, and the sauce had the right heat. The owners remember repeat customers. OrderRainbowThaiCuisine.…“
“This place is so delicious! The food is so beautifully spiced and balanced that I don't have to add condiments to enhance the dishes at all. The crab rangoon actually tastes like crab and not just a "cream cheese puff" which seems to have become a current trend. The salmon tamarind is unbelievable. You can bring your own alcohol without a corkage fee. It's a casual place with tasteful decor and lighting.“
“I love Hello Thai so much! Their food is tasty, fresh, and most of all affordable. Some of my favorites include the fried rice, papaya salad, and crab ragoon! The service is also wonderful, the staff is so attentive and sweet. Check out their lunch special, it is such a great bang for your buck and always hits the spot.“
“I really loved my experience here! I ordered the fried rice and a crab & cheese (crab rangoons) and it was all very delicious. The service was really good too. I feel like places that are a smaller dining-in area can be intimidating, especially when we were the first party to be sitting in there tonight. But since we were confident and content, it really made for no big deal and there were many others who came in for dine-in/carry-out while we were there.“
“This was first visit and I am impressed with the food. Ordered ginger chicken and summer rolls. Both very good. Prices are reasonable and they have seating inside for dining in. I will be back! I am excited to try some more dishes. The people are also very nice and great service. As a side note, they do not serve any wine/beer/cocktails.“
“The ambiance, staff, and food remain exceptional. The surprise birthday celebration was highlighted by the chef. A wonderful experience nestled in an unlikely place. This is my third or fourth visit with consistency over decades.Dietary restrictions: Let staff know in advance. They were great with the lactose intolerant guest.“
“I recently had Ruk cater an event and they were amazing to work with- the food is great, they were SO accommodating, and created beautiful sushi trays within my budget. In addition to ordering take out and dining in, I will absolutely be using them for catering again!“
“Over the years, Indie Cafe has been amazingly kind and thoughtful in their service, and their food preparations and presentations always go above and beyond all of my expectations. From quadruple-checking whether or not a menu item is gluten-free, to recommending the best wine/sake pairings for an entrée, their staff have always ensured that I've left their restaurant knowing that I was appreciated as a customer. And welcomed as a friend. Maya is hands-down one of the most excellent servers I've had the pleasure of dining with. She always goes above and beyond with her level of professionalism and attention, and her personality is lovely as well! Given the quality of their sashimi, the creativity behind their menu, and the warmth in their hearts? I look forward to dining with them for many years to come.“
“Absolutely amazing. I was blown away by the flavor. Like no other Thai food that I have experienced. Beyond 5 stars. I was spellbound. If you like Thai food, you need to give this place a try. It's a shame I don't live in Chicago, because I find myself daydreaming about it and wanting to fly across a quarter of the country JUST to eat here!“
“I recently dined at this delightful Japanese/Thai fusion restaurant, and it was a flavor-packed experience. The Spicy Creamy Tom Yum Noodle broth was rich, tangy, and had just the right amount of heat. The egg noodles were perfectly cooked, and the fragrant aromatics—garlic, chilies, and kaffir lime leaves—elevated the dish. And fav dish was Yakiniku don. The savory-sweet yakiniku sauce tied everything together. It was comfort food at its finest. The Beef Tongue was our adventurous choice. Thinly sliced and grilled, it had a unique texture—tender but slightly chewy. The marinade was flavorful, and the hotstone grill made it even more enjoyable (10/10 for this dish!!)“
“Came in for a quick dinner before the gym and they greeted me with kindness and quick service. I got the drunken noodles with tofu and halfway through forgot I had gotten tofu! The tofu was so well seasoned and prepared that I honestly thought I had gotten meat (I’m flexitarian meaning I eat meat but minimal amounts)! It had the perfect amount of spice (I got medium) and was the perfect amount of filling but not stuffed.“
“I love this place!! The owners are so sweet and kind and the food is delicious!! The customer sitting next to us was talking about how much she loves this place and how the prices are so much better than any other Thai restaurant in that area! I recommend this place 100%??“
“I will always be grateful to Yasotorn for taking my order right before closing on a weekday night. I had a long day at work and called in 15 minutes before they close at 9pm. The server who answered my call was very friendly and said that I can still place an order.I recommend trying their Hoi Tod – Thai omelette with mussels and beansprouts. The accompanying sauce paired well with the omelette.If you're looking for good, reliable Thai food with some unique options and friendly customer service, I recommend visiting Yasotorn.“
“Hello to all who read this review. It pains my heart to leave this review. This restaurant use to be one of my favorites, but since the old owners are no longer running things I have to say that my recent visit was a waste of money. I ordered some soup and basil egg rolls and the egg rolls tasted like frozen food, the chicken inside of the rolls were very dry with no taste to it. I didn't taste the basil like I use to, I didn't finish it, I tossed it out. The soup was not like I'm accustomed to. Wasn't sour at all, wasn't spicy at all, and too many DAMN mushrooms in it!. I was furious and through all of it out. Stick a fork in me I'm done with Ben's noodles.“
“All the food was GREAT! and didn't have to wait but 10 minutes to start receiving my orders. There used to be waiters in the past but now you walk up to the counter and order. The food arrives in to-go boxes but there's tables to eat “
“This is the best Thai food I have ever had! Definitely the best Thai food in Chicago. The service is fantastic. You need to get the crispy pad Thai! The tamarind chicken wings are also to die for! The drunken noodles and the duck pad see ew are also a hit. 10/10 the service is amazing“
“Ordered on Grub Hub. Their wings (5 total pieces) were really tasty. Steamed dumplings (4 total pieces with no meat) were decent – they were a bit bready. I was pleasantly surprised with the portions of the Pad Kee Mao and Orange Chicken though! The Orange chicken was too orangey. The Pad Kee Mao (with chicken) was good and had a nice amount of veggies.“
“First time ordering and it was decent. The veggie egg roll were good but the sauce was thin and watery. The fried pot stickers were good. The paid Thai was what you would expect and the fried rice was good. I will try again and try other things too.“
“I am SO delighted that this restaurant is in the neighborhood! The quality of sashimi is exceptionally high, and each dish is created and plated with intricate care. Definitely looking forward to trying more of their items. And their homemade kimchi is some of the best I've ever had; a nuanced balance of deep and bright heat, aged to perfection.“
“Just ordered take out,got it home, and opened it up. The first thing I noticed is that it is very lightly sauced. I mean very,but it packs a Whole lot of flavor. All of the ingredients where fresh. I mean, I wanted to drive back over there just to tell them how good the food was.“
“This is a small locally owned Japanese restaurant. The food is always great and well-prepared. I have tried many things on the menu and it is always delicious. The bubble tea is also especially good. The employees are always very courteous and care about maintaining a positive atmosphere. The sushi and sashimi dishes are also very reasonably priced and high quality. Highly recommend this place!“
“I am not local, this is a regular go-to place for a friend, so when I visit with her, she wants to bring me. I had a Chinese Eggplant with chicken dish, flavorful and spicy. Also had some nigiri sushi, all very good. The Black Tobiko was plentiful and fresh. The Tamago and Inari, which are types of sushi that are deceptively simple seeming but really show a chef's knowledge and artistry, were excellent. I'm sure I will go again.“
“I'm sorry, it was damn near perfect. Believe it or not it was my first time. The ambiance was perfect. I had a business meeting. It was so conducive to what we were trying to accomplish that we probably over stayed our welcome.lol Even so, no one was rushing us out the door. I don't remember the name of the dish. It was a curry dish with vegetables and catfish, very delicious. We did start with the shrimp spring rolls. Being a pescatarian I don't always have those options. If you're in the Rogers Park/Edgewater area this is worth your time.“
“Decent Thai food, flavor is good but portion size could be a bit bigger. I ordered a seafood noodle dish, and the seafood to noodle/veggie proportion was off. Definitely overpaid for the amount of seafood provided in the dish. Restaurant is mostly set up for take out. They do have a couple of high top tables, but I did not see restrooms in the establishment.“
“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“
“Tub Tim Thai is the place to be!! The servers are so nice, the food is so good and they have such an amazing atmosphere. It's a very chill place which amazing food and the servers and cooks are genuine and care about you as a customer. I love it here ◡̈ if youre looking for amazing thai food, this is the best place to be ♡“
“The food here is so good—full of flavor, very nice thick sauces, some dishes you don’t see at every Thai restaurant (somtum, some interesting fish) and the servings are so generous when eating in. It’s also a beautiful, quiet space with lots of greenery, wood, kind of an elegant 90s feel. Truly one of my favorite places in Chicago.“
“Great local Thai place with a pad Thai that is o the sweeter side but very tasty. The shrimp are always clean and cooked well and their rolls and salads are very authentic. Their delivery is really fast and their prices are competitive to the area.“
“Food quality is good. Chicken dishes are mostly sweet . Even after you ask for a spicy chicken it would not be under that much of spicy but taste is good. The one thing I didn't like which is their quantity. It's less quantity compared to the price which is a bit higher.“
“Food is sooo delicious ? omg love this place I really like the coconut lemongrass soup and the green curry and yellow curry spicy non spicyVegetarian options: You can always get anything here and leave meat put wonderful awesome establishment my husband and I have been Attending This place for so many years“
“Dowize Bistro has the best and affordable lunch here in Wilmette. I got the pad Thai with fried tofu as the complimentary appetizer. It also came with a small salad and soup. Big hearty portion! The food quality is excellent, and the variety is pretty extensive across several different cuisines and including multiple protein and vegetarian options. The ingredients have always been very fresh and prepared beautifully, and served generously. There is an array of traditional and modern Thai and Chinese dishes including curries, rice, noodles, bento boxes and sushi, and complete entrees and special meals. A personal highlight is they have ice-blended fruit freeze bubble tea drinks, which are a real treat on a nice day. Great little restaurant- Thai and Sushi. Everything very fresh and tasty! Efficient and friendly service. Highly recommended! Definitely will be back soon.“
“We have been ordering delivery from Lulu's forever. It's a favorite of our Labor and Delivery night team. The food is always wonderful, the service is always fast, and I've never had an incorrect order. Tonight they included the sweetest note with our delivery, and we just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts- you made our night! Thanks for keeping us well fed always and being out delivering during this time. -The Labor and Delivery night team“
“I love PNS! I've been coming to this location for years and it always hits the spot. I am a big fan of the Vegetarian Bowl with tofu - it's light and healthy but delicious. I've also tried a few appetizers and I've enjoyed everything. I usually call in my orders and they're quick to fulfill and orders are easy to pick up. I hope this store never closes in Northfield!“
