“After hearing great things, I finally had a chance to eat at Thai Neighbor. Let me tell you, I have never felt so welcome in a restaurant ever. Food is incredible and it is run by the most lovely people.

Everything was excellent. Way above and beyond my expectations. Run, don’t walk, to Thai Neighbor next time you’re looking for a good meal.“

surprised. We liked the cute atmosphere ,the cleanliness, and most importantly, the food!!! We got the lunch specials! It includes an appetizer/soup/main meal. It was a great price for great food!!! We will definitely be back here again soon.“

“Huge fan. As Americanized Thai places go this is tops. When I order spicy, I get it. I enjoy their take on salmon nicoise, with a beautiful dressing. The curries are very good. I would like to know if there is a hidden menu where unamericanized Thai exists.

Vegetarian options: You can get almost dish vegetarian“

Round 2:
Khao Soi Chicken, my new favorite.
I go to many Thai restaurants and this is tops. Even the service is exceptional. Had an issue with our meal and it was quickly resolved. Stay tuned for round 3....we'll be back ?“

“Absolutely. Amazing. WOW!“

“This is a Thai place that is fairly new to the area. I ordered Pineapple Fried Rice, Pad Kee Mao, and Crab Rangoon. Wow— I love it! This may be my favorite place for Thai in Chicago. Spice level is perfect for those who love to eat spicy dishy- it is actually spicy, not American spicy.

Lots of Thai places don’t sell Pineapple fried rice which is one of my favorite dishes. It tastes perfect and authentic!

Please support this small business! The food is authentic and not Americanized!“

“The spicy basil curry had the best balance of heat without overwhelming the flavor, and the portion was just right. It was really loud, but I can't exactly blame them for some unruly clientele or being busy. It's a great alternative from Herb if you want tasty food without breaking the bank.“

“as someone who loves thai food, i go to rice & noodles at least once a week. i work a couple blocks away so it is super convenient for me to stop by here for their lunch specials. my food is always ready on time and the staff is super friendly.“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“This is a great spot! My friend and I went last night and had a delicious meal. We ate in the cafe where the atmosphere was very cute and happy! It is perfect for a date night or an relaxing chat with a friend as most tables seat 2-3 folks. The service was very welcoming and considerate about our experience. We got spicy udon noodles with chicken and pad see-ew with beef~ each dish was delicious and I’m still thinking about the bouncy noodles with perfect sauce ratio! I will definitely come back with friends to make more happy memories. I hope you try it out! Thank you!“

“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“

“Some of the best Thai food in the city. Our favorite dishes include their mooping, chive dumplings, satay, pad Thai, and all the curries. The curries aren’t overly sweet like I’ve tasted elsewhere, and their pad Thai has just the right amount of tamarind to make it legit. Thank you for high-quality Thai food, R Haaan.“

“In-On Thai is truly the hidden gem of Chicago's Thai food scene. This family-run establishment offers the most authentic Bangkok-style cuisine I've experienced outside of Thailand. The husband-and-wife team who run the place are incredibly warm and attentive, often stopping by tables to chat and make recommendations.

Their Panang curry is legendary and their green curry might be the best in the city. The pad see ew has perfect wok hei flavor, and their crispy fish with jungle salad is a unique must-try. Don't skip crab wontons and papaya salad as starters - they're exceptional. Everything is made from scratch, and you can taste the freshness and care in every dish.

The restaurant itself is small and cozy with a cute ambiance. It's BYOB (conveniently, there's a liquor store next door), and the prices are very reasonable for the quality. The food comes out surprisingly fast, and portions are generous.

What sets In-On Thai apart is not just the food but the consistency - I've never had a disappointing meal here. Whether dining in or taking out, the quality remains top-notch. Just remember to buzz in when you arrive!

-Try the dishes at Thai spicy level if you're brave
-Don't miss their homemade peanut sauce
-Parking available, but watch out for pigeons under the L tracks!

Without a doubt, this is some of the best Thai food in Chicago. Five stars aren't enough!

Vegetarian options: In-On Thai offers excellent vegetarian options with many dishes that can be made with tofu instead of meat. Their crispy tofu with curry sauce is outstanding, and the deep-fried tofu appetizer is perfectly crispy outside and silky inside. The tofu Pad Thai and Pad See Ew are delicious vegetarian alternatives to the classic dishes. Their green and Massaman curries can be ordered vegetarian-style with tofu and extra vegetables, including authentic Thai eggplant. The papaya salad (som tum) is a fresh, vibrant vegetarian option, and they're always accommodating with customizing dishes to be vegetarian-friendly. The kitchen is happy to adjust spice levels to your preference, and the homemade peanut sauce pairs wonderfully with their vegetarian dishes.“

“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!“

“​Stopped by Talay Chicago over on Madison for dinner with some friends, and it was a solid choice. We each spent around $35, which covered a couple of dishes and a drink. The Pad Thai was flavorful and had just the right amount of spice, and the sushi rolls were fresh and well-prepared. The Crab Rangoon was a standout appetizer—crispy and filled with creamy goodness. The spot has a cozy, laid-back vibe, perfect for a casual meal. Service was quick and friendly!“

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

“PS Bangkok is a great restaurant run by an even better person! My boyfriend and I visited this evening and had the BEST Thai food we’ve ever had. We ordered the Chive Dumplings to start and they were sooo chewy with a tasty chive filling. We also ordered the Siamese Curry Noodle with chicken and veggies! The noodle dish was soooo yummy and had great flavor. While eating our food, Sue, the owner, checked up on us and chatted with us as we ate. We had such a great time at the restaurant and chatting with her that we decided to stay for dessert and order Mango Sticky Rice, the perfect treat to conclude our wonderful dinner at PS Bangkok! Thank you, Sue for great food and even better company! ❤️“

“I have visited Bodhi many times and the food is always excellent. Also, the service is great! It’s cute and cozy! Highly recommend!“

“If you’re in Ukaniana Village and love Thai food, this spot is a must! We usually do takeout, but recently dined in, and it exceeded expectations. The food is consistently delicious, with authentic flavors and generous portions. Highly recommend!“

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

“Has been a Thai spot staple in my household for YEARS. Grew up down the street from their Oak Park location, and currently live a stones throw away from their lakeview location. Never ever disappoints, love the staff and consistency in quality.“

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

“First time here! Everything was delicious.“

“The only vegan option I believe was the pad see ewe. Later the waitress asked us if we wanted tofu a certain way and we thought we were talking about in our dish but it was a separate side. So that was a bit confusing, and we should have clarified too. Cute art on wall“

“Certainly! Here’s a polished review for you:

“I had the pleasure of dining at Fine Thai and was thoroughly impressed. The food was not only delicious but also incredibly fresh. Every bite was packed with flavor and you could tell the ingredients were of high quality. The service was attentive and welcoming, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a fantastic meal. I will definitely be coming back!”

“Puk was our server and she was truly the best. The food was amazing as always. The service was fast and friendly. Prices are very reasonable and the food is so fresh and flavorful. Definitely try if you are looking for Thai food in Chicago!

Vegetarian options: The best vegetarian options. Almost any dish can be made to your accommodation

Parking: They have free parking on the side street and also street parking in front

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly environment“

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

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

“I haven’t eaten inside the restaurant yet but we order take out almost weekly. We recently moved to the suburbs from Chicago and have been disappointed with the Thai places we’ve tried. We’ve finally found our go to place to order from! Food is always delivered still warm and fresh. You can choose your spice level and even the medium be quite spicy so order accordingly. We love this place and hope it stays around!“

“I’ve done takeout like 8 or so times: I’ve ordered just tea like 10 times. Love the Thai ice tea—got interested in making it and figured out their recipe by reverse engineering it.

Great sukiyaki dry, great chicken fried rice, tomyum soup, fresh salmon sashimi, and more. Best prices in the area for any Asian food! 4.6 is fair, I’d say 4.7 is more accurate. Big foodie so I’m not hyping them up, they have good service.

Parking: Addison has free street parking“

“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.“

“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. �“

“New favorite spot 😊 🤩 ❤️. Will return and bring all my friends!“

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

“I love the Golden Thai it was my first time dining and I recommend it. The food was freshly made and great portion size. The food was delicious 🤤. Great service too“

“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“

“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!!! I would definitely recommend this place…“

“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.“

“Outstanding and flavorful and large portions . High quality Thai“
