50 Best Thai Restaurants near Skokie

“The restaurant is cool and comfortable on a very hot and humid day. The restaurant looks good and smells good. Came to do laundry next door and found this by luck. I have lived on the other side of the world and I have been to Thailand multiple times. This food is excellent. We had teriyaki chicken and tom yum. The nice lady explained it was one of her first days while the owner is in Thailand on vacation. Hopefully they see this and know their restaurant is in good hands!“

“I loved my Drunken noodle w veggies and tofu for $15.99. It's was not too oily and not salty and the taste was perfect w a little sugar so I was very happy with my dish. You can use a QR code to pay. Convenient. They have open free parking in this shopping mall w lots of major stores. They sell merch too. But the tofu was not as fresh.“

“Nice and comfortable ambiance & decor. Great food, tradition Isan cuisine, perfect seasoning, delicious and not like any other Thai restaurant in the City!!! The service is very friendly and attentive. Prices are reasonable! Definitely going back!!!!“

“Delicious fresh Thai cuisine. Staff is friendly and the space is beautiful!“

“Very yummy 🥰❤️👍 อร่อยมากๆคะรสเด็ดไทยแท้“

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

“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!“

“really good! food was excellent, albeit a bit on the more expensive side. tom kha was very flavorful, the satay was phenomenally well seasoned and juicy, and the Pad Thai also great, although I wished the veggies were cut a bit smaller lol.
our server seemed a bit out of it, but we also came during down hours so I'm not pressed but just thought I would mention it.“

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

“Great dinner, service and atmosphere!“

“This is the BEST panang curry I’ve ever had. Aside from the rich flavor, the magic touch is the ground peanut garnish to give a bit of extra texture. I’m sooo glad I found this place. Very few tables, so better for 1-2 and 4 people max if they combine tables. Will definitely be my go-to Thai place from now on!“

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

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

“Amazing meal from Thai Aree! It is takeout only but wow is it worth it. We ordered when we arrived and it only took a few minutes for our food to be ready. The best Thai we’ve had in Chicago and such warm and friendly service. We loved the Massaman curry and Pad Sea-Ew. Can’t wait to try more of the menu!“

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

“Absolutely. Amazing. WOW!“

“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!“

“Absolutely the best Thai food in Wrigleyville!!! Not to mention Chef Tee, Julie and staff are the best!! This is a must stop for us when we visit.“

“Great restaurant with large outdoor patio and friendly staff. Got the drunken noodles, which were amazing. We've also had ping yang platter which I would totally recommend splitting among friends. The drink selection is solid the mashed avocado coconut smoothie was so unique. I don't think I've ever had anything like this before.“

“Delicious and fresh Thai food that can’t be beat! The crab Rangoons are the best around, the Real Thai roll was so fresh and absolutely mouth watering delicious! I always get pad Thai and it’s truly one of the best I’ve had! And the Tiger Cries entree is phenomenal!“

“Came in here on my lunch break and the server was very nice and attentive. The Thai iced tea I got was some of the best I’ve ever had, and the seafood soup I got was delicious. The prices were also good given the portion sizes. If I’m ever back in this part of the city I’m definitely returning here again“

“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.“

“Such a good Thai place in Uptown!! The service was average but quick. The food was amazing. I had been craving pad Thai for a while and finally got it and now I’ve been wanting to go back to try more dishes. The menu was vast so there’s plenty to choose from. Would recommend“

“One of my longtime favorites!!! Glad they are open.“

“Went here before Sumo and Sushi. Found street parking easily. Sushi was delicious. They accommodated an extra person on our reservation easily. It is close quarters inside the restaurant but it never felt overwhelming. Excellent food and drinks. Definitely recommend.“

“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“

“My partner and I had gone to see Resident Evil at the newly reopened 400 Theatre (matinee) and planned to visit for an early dinner afterwards. Super dope interior with incredible mood lighting etc. Every corner had something fun to look at. I had the Thai Lemon Ice Tea which was delicious! And my Beau had the Honey Lemon Butterfly Pea, which was a pleasant surprise. We shared Edamame, with Tom Yum and Miso Soup and a side of Pot stickers. And we shared the Sushi Platter A, which also came with Miso soup 😅 But it was a great price for all that food and drink for two and we were stuffed when we left. Super good, super chill, super delicious. Would recommend to anyone. Will certainly be back.“

“We came here after the festival, and it was exactly what we needed. The food was so comforting after a night of drinking. Back home in Thailand, it’s common to end the night with a bowl of rice congee, and this place gave me that same feeling. It really reminded me of those late-night meals back home. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend!“

“This is my second visit within 7 days. As someone who loves visiting Thailand for their food, I finally found my go-to place at Thai Neighbor!
The place is comfy, and you can see inside of the kitchen also clean. Owner and staff are friendly. The best thing, cost effective authentic Thai food!
Can’t wait to come back to try more dishes❤“

“Noble Thai makes the best Chicken Pad Thai I’ve ever had!! I’ve tried to branch out to change things up, but haven’t found another restaurant that comes even close. Their Potstickers are also amazing and the Veggie eggrolls & Moo Ping pork skewers are also great apps/sides. I’ve never dined in, but it looks like a cool vibe. The takeout is always ready very quick. Overall excellent quality, consistency & value!“

“We have dined at Silli Kori before and had an excellent experience, but this time we ordered delivery. Everything was delicious, fresh, well-presented, and arrived quickly. It's wonderful to find a spot at which you want to be a regular. Also, a very easy ordering experience.“

“Really great atmosphere, and a wait staff that directly asked the chef our questions and dietary restrictions. To add on to the friendly service, the food is AMAZING! We enjoyed two dishes, extremely flavorful garlic and pepper tofu, and delightful and spicy green curry. We also ate the cozy taro puff which is flaky and yummy. The quality is top tier and the food is also affordable for a fun night out. Pok Pok is one of my favorite restaurants in the city!“

“fantastic meal, great restaurant , friendly staff, Tasty food“

“Thai O Clock rocks! Banging food. Nice cozy environment. Reasonable prices. If you’re on West Peterson, give it a try.“

“The food is made fresh and so delicious.“

“Wow, went in with low expectations and walked out happy. I had the pad gra pao and it was delicious. Perfectly cooked, not dried out and very spicy like I want. Also had some massaman curry which was loaded with onions carrots chicken and not too sweet but just the right spice. Wife had the boat noodles. Again we came not expecting anything special but Surprise! This will be my wifes go to place for boat noodle. She is Thai and we have been to over 60 thai restaurants and this was the best in Chicago. We will be back again and again.“

“First time here! Everything was delicious.“

“Absolutely amazing experience! The food was fresh, authentic, and full of flavor. The Tom Yum was one of the best I’ve ever had—perfectly balanced, rich, and delicious. The service was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome. The atmosphere was warm and cozy. I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend this place to anyone who loves Thai food!“

“My friend and I went there to go eat. Our experience was FANTASTIC. The food was amazing ,very clean environment and the people there are amazing. 10/10 recommended to everyone!!“

“Really good authentic food. These servers are meticulous and anticipated every need before we even asked. I dined with 5 friends and all 6 of us got different orders and all loved each one. I next found myself trying to figure out what I would order next time I’m there!“

“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.“

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

“Bún bò siêu ngon. Rất là ưng ý 🥰🥰🥰“

“This place is incredible. Food is 10 out of 10. I lived in Thailand for years and this is incredibly authentic and absolutely delicious. The restaurant is the tiniest I've ever seen so carryout seems best but worth every penny and then some.“

“I always enjoy dining at Ping Pong. The food is always amazing and the staff is very attentive. They also have a nice wine selection and creative cocktails.“

“This is located in Park to Shop. The food court area is pretty spacious. It’s one of the nicest looking food courts I’ve ever been to at any grocery store. Decoration is key. We ordered chicken satay, fish cakes, boat noodle, basil crispy pork, Thai iced tea, crab rangoon, and wonton noodle. Service was friendly. Overall, it’s a solid 4. I would go back but try more dishes.

-chicken satay 5 - chicken was very tender and well seasoned.
-fish cakes 3 - they were okay, nothing to wow you. I think the curry paste could be stronger.
-boat noodle 5 - it is served in a large bowl. The broth has a sweet and spicy mix. There is beef, noodles, pork rind, bean sprouts, and meatballs,
-basil crispy pork 3.5 - I feel like the pork was too crispy and chewy. I would have liked it to be a little bit softer, crispy, and juicy. No one likes eating tough meat.
-Thai iced tea 5 - standard, not watery.
-crab rangoon 5 - pretty standard. It had a lot of crab imitation and cream cheese.
-wonton noodle 5 - the wontons were very meaty. Don’t sleep on that broth, it’s very savory.“

“It is a small family-owned restaurant with nice decor and friendly staff. The food is all good, I personally like their duck basil, broccoli beef, and chicken satay best. They also have a variety of good smoothies!“

“Really enjoyed this place! The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the portions were very generous. The food was flavorful and tasted really good. Everything we ordered was satisfying. Definitely a nice spot for Thai noodles — we’ll be back!“

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