    Chicken Satay.  Out of five pieces, three were overdone.
    David Z.

    Not only were the satay overdone, the rice container was 2/3 full. Three of the five pieces overdone. I was hungry and ate the least overdone one.

    Quick quarantine update: As of July 9, 2010, Bangkok Belly is still doing carry-out only. They have tables lined up inside the dining area, blocking you from going further. There are a couple of chairs for you to sit and wait on your order, along with a giant bottle of GermX hand sanitizer. Food is still fantastic, and this place is still my go-to if I'm craving some good Thai food. I recommend that you check it out.

    Rice upon opening container. Not much in there, almost looks like it had been eaten out of. Way more panang curry, needed more rice.
    Michele B.

    Small portions for the price compared to other Thai spots. We ordered pad see eiw, Panang curry, shrimp shumai, and crab rangoons. Taste is decent, although the beef in the pad see eiw tasted burnt. Totally skimped on rice per volume of curry. Wondering what other, better Thai options there might be in the area.

    Tempura
    Charmaine D.

    We ordered the Fried calamari, Pad Thai with Tofu, Pad See Eiw with chicken, and the Tempura. The amount was smaller than expected but the noodles were good. The fried calamari was a little rubbery. The tempura was over fried on the shrimp and not enough on the large broccoli. I will most likely order from here again since it's in my hood but will try other things on the menu.

    BYOB! Friendly staff and good food. Not great but good and it'll get the job done if you're in the hood. When recently dining here I tried both a couple maki rolls and one of their entree dishes. Sushi was fresh enough and constructed well. The main entrée we had was tasty though not overly so. All in all, decent sushi and Thai option.

    Reduced portions for $26.

    So we opened our carry-out sushi from Bangkok Belly and immediately saw how the rolls were only 5 pieces, instead of the usual 8 pieces for sushi rolls. And we spent $26! We felt ripped off. When we order 3 rolls of sushi - Spicy Tuna, Spider Maki and Mexican maki from other sushi restaurants, they always give 8 pieces, not 5. Now we won't go back. Our favorite sushi restaurant is Nami Sushi, 7344 West Lawrence Avenue, Harwood Heights, IL. They give you 8 rolls and the quality is very good! And you will have a few leftover pieces of sushi to enjoy the next day.

    Edamame, crab rangoon, potstickers and cashew chicken with rice.
    Lauren F.

    Prices are great for the portions you get. The edamame was perfect and enough for leftovers. The crab rangoons were plump and tasty. The potstickers were good, nothing extraordinary, though I liked the inclusion of some spinach for freshness. For my main dish, I tried the cashew chicken from the signature entrees menu. I liked the flavor, the fresh vegetables and amount, but the chicken was mostly breading and a bit soggy from the sauce. Still good but not a lot of actual chicken. My boyfriend got the sweet and sour chicken and enjoyed it but had the same thoughts about the excess breading. Be sure to ask for chopsticks and any condiments--nothing is included with takeout.

    This is an excellent sushi place - great vibe, young crowd, and terrific food…read more We started with the roasted edamame and the tempura shrimp, followed that with three rolls, and finished with sashimi - it was all excellent, the beers were very cold, and the service was solid (not excellent but very good for the price point) Prices are not cheap but not as crazy as some other places (Juno is better, but it can get really pricey). Sushi-San is Defintely on our regular list

Seating was comfortable. I tried their express lunch menu, which is a great option if you're here during lunch time. You get to pick 3 items from the list and I chose tako taco (a little spicy but highly recommend- one of my favorite things that day), salmon avocado (I'm not a personal fan of the Meyer lemon sauce), and tuna avocado rice bowl. Each item is smaller portioned but all together it's a substantial lunch set. I also tried the express sushi and sashimi lunch set, which comes with a delicious seaweed salad which I would order on its own as an appetizer. The lunch set comes with their "oh-my-kaze." This includes salmon, hamachi and tuna. One piece of tuna was substandard and had a big piece of sinew in it. Our server quickly switched it for another piece. The only dish I would skip is the Peking duck sizzling rice. The taste was fine- a little on the sweeter side with the hoisin sauce but the portion was more of an appetizer size. It's also not a true Peking duck, which focuses on a crispy duck skin and this dish just featured duck meat.

We wanted to have some sake and asked for help. Their sommelier was very helpful and recommended the Snow Tiger Yuki Tora which is unfiltered and looks like milk, but it went beautifully with our food. We started with Edamame which had a perfect char. The grilled Avocado was a pleasant surprise with the char flavor and great spicy sauce. You get a spoon to scoop out the avocado and it's sliced so it works with chop sticks. By the way everything is great for sharing which gives everyone a chance to try the wonderful menu. Then we attacked the main menu. The Wagyu Nigiri, the must have Bluefin Tuna Crispy Rice, Crispy Spring Rolls and I drank the juice with the Hamachi and Lemon. Now it's time to figure what's next! spicy Tuna roll, triple tuna roll, the incredible Wild Mushroom sizzling rice bowl and it is sizzling! We're nearing the end! The Unagi and the Black Cod couldn't have been any better. It melted in our mouths. Think we're finished, we saved room for dessert! The Miru-Ishi and Black Sesame Mochi. We're finished! Maria was a great server and was very attentive!

My only critique is the pacing. Since the chef already had the fish sliced and prepped, I expected a smoother flow, but the meal took about an hour and a half for 14 pieces of sushi. It felt a bit slow, especially for a lunch service. That said, if you're looking for a reasonably priced omakase with quality fish, this is a solid choice.

Both were great. Our bartenders were lovely and very friendly. Found out this is a Malort tasting room and we were able to sample some different Malorts (the cocoa one was good!). Then we were taken back to our table for dinner. Our server was super friendly as well. Started with the miso soup and crispy tuna bites which were probably my favorite dishes. The taki yoki fritters weren't bad either. We saw people getting omakase, so we ordered a yummy looking piece they were receiving. It was just okay (chutoro truffle). The nigiri was also okay. The tuna piece was the only I really loved. The fish quality wasn't as high as I was expecting. The sushi was decent. A little too much truffle in the spicy blue fin tuna and a little too vegetable forward in the hamachi serrano. All in all, the atmosphere and amazing service pushed this up to a 4 for me.
