50 Best Thai Restaurants near Wilmette

“Cool.“

“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“

“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!!!!“

“Very yummy 🥰❤️👍 อร่อยมากๆคะรสเด็ดไทยแท้“

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

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

“The food was amazing, I had the pat thai and my husband had the pat see ew.
Delicious and you could tell they use fresh ingredients.
The Thai tea was perfection! 🙂
And Melissa was the nicest person to host, she was very nice and personal and I will definitely will be back.
The most authentic Thai in the area.“

“Portion sizes were larger than expected, and the crab rangoons are pretty good! I feel the pad thai noodles are lacking in flavor and sauce. I added more fish sauce and lime juice at home and it went from sad to decent but I'm not sure I'll order that again.“

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

“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!“

“Great dinner, service and atmosphere!“

“gushing about my take out order - I got the fried rice with yellow curry and fried spring rolls. everyone says it feels like someone’s parents making a home cooked meal for you, and it really does. the ingredients were fresh and flavorful. the man who gave me my order was very sweet and helpful, suggesting ways to combine sauces for best flavor and making sure I got everything I asked for. he also provided me with a huge slice of fresh watermelon, specifically to cool down the “thai heat” and it was delish.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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 don't understand why this place doesn't have a higher rating! The food is absolutely amazing. I love the crab fried rice and my husband likes their Thai basil fried rice. We travel all the way from the south suburbs to come here and they never disappoint!“

“While visiting the Roger's Park area, I ordered take out from here. The food was good. It was cooked to order and a good amount of food. If you are looking for a Thai restaurant with decent food, this can be your place. The mango sticky rice was really good. There is plenty of seating if you want to dine in as well. There are also other shops close for Boba tea or other drinks if you are interested. The only issue is parking. It is very difficult to find street parking in this area.“

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

“If you love ginger and a crispy noodle, Penny's Noodle Shop has the best Lad Nar from the city to the burbs. Nothing else like it. The light sauce has ginger, carrots and broccoli and is consistently amazing! Best when dining in but take out good too. Take noodles on the side for takeout and mix it up at home. Delicious every time.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“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“

“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 .“

“I know this place is now closed, but if the owners are seeing these reviews. I hope you're doing ok. This little spot was my favorite go to especially when I dropped off rent to my landlord. I came to you on a whim and I truly fell in love with this restaurant.
I was going to order to drop off the last rent for my old Lakeview place and I'm sad to see I can't do that. I hope there's another cute spot that opens up there. It's a great spot and you can barely hear the train from inside.

To the owners- thank you for keeping this restaurant open enough for me to visit at least once a month. I hope you're in good health and cherish knowing you're little restaurant meant a lot to many people in the Lakeview/Wrigleyville area.“

“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!“

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

“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.“

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

“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!“

“I got the Crispy Pad see ew and vegetable tempura and it was amazing. I was worried that getting takeout would make it soggy but it traveled so well. They left the container opened inside a paper bag which kept everything perfectly crispy. I wish I was able to stay to eat at the restaurant because it seemed so cozy in there and the staff was so friendly. I’ll definitely be going back“

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

“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!“

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

“The place has constant turnover, which is good. There are a lot of Thais so you know it'll be good. The change their menu weekly, so follow their IG. Staff is super nice. It's more of an in and out kind of place. Water is available for you to grab yourself. The food and beverages are delicious!!!! All the food is fantastic that we tried.“

“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!“

“Delicious food good service friendly stuff Cost super affordable great experience Definitely worth it It was my first time but for sure going back“

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

“The whole event was full of good energy — from the food and music to the friendly people everywhere. One of the best parts was getting a massage from Thai Lotus Bodywork. Their therapists were so skilled and kind — it was the perfect way to relax during the festival. Big thanks to the organizers for putting this together. I’m already looking forward to next year!“

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

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

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

“We had a great experience at Ezankaya and I'm looking forward to a return. The food was delicious, fresh and plentiful. I only gave it 4 instead of 5 stars because we ordered three entrees for three people and they came out at different times. The curry softshell crab was one of the most delicious meals I ever had. It was so flavorful. My husband had the chicken curry and loved it. The presentation was nice and the vibe of the restaurant was 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.“

“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“

“I got the lunch special Kung pao it came with an appetizer which I chose veggie rolls (2) they was too good that I forgot to take a Pic of them. The Kung pan is amazing fresh and with savory flavor. Definitely going back to try other items on the menu.“

“Very nice atmosphere. Awesome old bar. Great food. Quick service“
