Very tasty Thai food. Really enjoyed the red Panang curry and pad Thai. We will order from them again

This is our go to neighborhood Thai place. Basil Chicken and pad Thai are both delicious. Our one complaint is that they always under estimate the time our food will be ready when we place a carry out order. So we wait 5-10 minutes to get our food. A small price to pay for good Thai food. read more

Excellent food! I love the pad Thai, cashew chicken & Panang curry especially. Also very friendly.

It's a post-apocalyptic world and I have a choice of one awesome restaurant to survive, it would be this one. My friend and I discovered it last year by chance. It was probably a sign from the heavens guiding us towards the wonders this place has to offer. I haven't been disappointed by any dishes that i've tried. They are all full of flavor and well balanced. My FAVORITE is the Mussaman Curry. OMG! If I could eat this every day, I would. It is so delicious with the coconut sauce, peanuts, potatoes, onion and meat of choice. I've had it with chicken only. My favorite dessert is the Taro Pearls in coconut sauce. There's just something so comforting about this. I will continue coming here and recommending jt to friends. A friend of mine actually took my recommendation and she loved the Panang Curry. read more

Pan ang curry chicken is by far my favorite dish from there. Thank you for your quick service as well.

I stopped in for lunch today and was happy I did. The food was delicious!! I had Panang Curry which was one of the best i have tasted. My boyfriend had the Pad Thai and also enjoyed his. The inside of the restaurant is simple and tastefully decorated. Everything was clean. The service was good, although there were only two tables occupied during the time i was there. We will be returning. read more

I TRIED - Fresh Spring Rolls (5/10) - Crab Wheel (3/10) - Tom Yum (9/10) - Tom Kha (9/10) - Panang Curry (10/10) - Spicy Combination Seafood (6/10) In college, some friends introduced me to Pad Thai and Pad Seeyou. I fell in love instantly! I then considered myself a Thai expert just because I've had those 2 noodle dishes with each of the 4 meats (beef, chicken, pork, and shrimp). Then one day, on a business trip, I tried Pok Pok in Portland and had the Boar Collar dish they have and instantly realized, I knew jack about Thai! So one day, a buddy and I were wondering what to eat, and I suggested Thai, and Dan Thai just happened to be the place closest to us! The place is in the middle of a strip mall. The location of the strip mall is fairly premium, it's near a big intersection, but I don't think I've ever come into this strip mall my entire life, and I live less than 3 miles from it! The inside is pretty standard to most Thai places I've been to. It has a fairly decent number of tables, and it's usually been quiet when I've gone, which is either later at night or late lunch on the weekends. SPRING ROLLS & CRAB WHEEL Well the fresh spring rolls are like everybody's fresh spring rolls. Nothing unique about these. The Crab Wheels are supposed to be crab in "garlic pepper seasoning fried and served with sweet chili sauce," but that's not what I tasted. It just tasted like 1/3 of an imitation crab roll, breaded and fried. Taste was kinda funky by itself. The sauce was really good and helped, but wasn't anything I'd order again. TOM YUM/KHA I order my Tom Khas and Tom Yums extra spicy. I've had both of these and they are both excellent. Perfect ratio of mushrooms and meat. I consider ginger to be a landmine in Thai soups, but although they are present, I didn't have to be as careful as I had to be in other places. I don't know what it is that I've had at other places, but they have this skin of some vegetable (looks like a green onion) but it feels like a plastic straw that I can't chew. They didn't have that either, so I could peacefully drink my soup. PENANG CURRY With Dan Thai being a random restaurant in a strip mall in Schaumburg, I was expecting that whatever I have here, there'll be tons of other Thai places that are much better. If that is the case, I'm still waiting for a better Penang Curry! LIke the soups, there aren't a lot of "land mines" that I've had at other places. The curry isn't watery like some either, but the consistency is just perfect, like a Cream of Mushroom soup. It's got a perfect peanutty flavor and the heat is also nicely done (even though I'd like a little hotter when I order "extra spicy"). It's a giant bowl too, so be careful if you order with other things. I was stuffed with the appetizer and other entree we got, but the curry was so good, I ended up cleaning out the bowl, and then wanted to die because I was so full. BOTTOM LINE There was one restaurant out in Wilmette (I think) that had an better Tom Kha, but their Penang was just ok. I think, so far, if I ever had a craving for Thai, I'm going to Dan Thai for the whole package. Almost perfect Tom Yum/Kha and the best Penang Curry I've ever had. I really want to see if there even is such a thing as a better Penang Curry than Dan Thai. I'm going to go revisit my old college Thai place and see if they can hang... read more

So here's the deal about Dan Thai: the food is good. It's the only Thai food that my husband has ever liked. Granted, he's picky about Thai food and hasn't tried it as often as I have but he's a huge fan of their wings and their pad thai. So that's the good part. We've been ordering take out from them several times a month for the past six months. But that stops starting right now. Not only have they left things out of our orders more often than not, they provided some of the worst customer service that I have recently experienced. Tonight we placed an order for myself, my husband, and my BFF. We got the chicken wings and chicken pad thai, tofu pad thai and basil tofu with a side of sticky rice. I picked it up around 8:30 and the lady checking me out was friendly and polite. Because we had so much food, I just asked if everything was in there including the sticky rice and she said yes. I tipped her, she thanked me, we both moved on with our lives. Until I got home and my husband got upset that there was no sauce with the wings. That's the reason why he orders wings. Then he tells me they only gave him six wings. This is the first time I've called them to let them know and I started off nice, I really did. Then the gentleman tells me that he goes by weight, not count. I say that this isn't what his website says and he replies that it is outdated. I say that's not how it's advertised and also advise that we didn't have the chili sauce. He tells me to check the bag and that's when I said that that was the point, there was no sauce anywhere. He then actually said to me "Well if you really want to drive back over here for one chicken wing you can." I told him that at this point I want my money back and he tells me to bring back the wings and then he would refund the money. That's right. Not once did I get an apology. Not once was he empathetic. Nope, he gave excuses and did nothing to attempt to help me, instead became defensive, petty, an offensive enough to make me want to drive back to the restaurant. My husband witnessed this and decided to go himself. He gets there and the guy has money on the counter and says, "here, your money back plus tax." My husband explains that he doesn't appreciate the false advertising or having to drive back to the restaurant to return chicken wings because our order was messed up again. He tells the man that we order so often and he's started checking the order before he leaves because it's wrong fairly often. My husband, a much more patient and kinder person than I complimented him on his food and said that he was really disappointed with this experience. All the guy says is that he knows his food is good and that his prices are cheaper than others. Again, more excuses. My husband left with no chicken wings and a refund of only the cost for the dish that we returned. That's OK. I never thought that Dan Thai was cheap, it was just good. But not good enough for me to put myself in a chicken wings situation again. I don't expect anyone to kiss my butt but I do expect at the very least, someone to own up to a less than stellar experience. You may find decent food at Dan Thai but I hope that you never have a problem. If you do, you might have to deal with someone who has no desire to help you, every intention of being petty and difficult. Don't let Dan Thai ruin your next meal. read more

Was driving down Schaumburg Road on Saturday night this past weekend. Pulled over to place a take out order with a local joint. Pulled into the parking lot of Dan Thai, not even knowing they were there..... ...I wish I had never pulled over that night. We never noticed DT was here. I have lived down the street for years and had never really seen it. I even fill up at BP in their ajoining parking lot regularly. Looked them up on Yelp and saw they had 4 stars. Good enough for me, let's take a look at the menu and see what they have. My fiance and I glanced over the online menu and found two dishes that both sounded great for each of us. Me: I love Basil and they have a "Basil Lovers" Chicken. Sold. And after reading the description of the Five Star chicken, my fiance was game. We also decided to get an order of their Pot Stickers. We placed an order from their parking lot because it didn't really look like the kind of place you can walk in and order take out and sit any wait without interrupting people dining in the restaurant. They told us about a 30 minute wait for the food, so we went home and did a few things at the house while the food was being cooked and off he went to pick up, what I was HOPING was going to be a great meal! He brought home our dinner. The Basil Chicken was excellent, the Five Star Chicken was also a crowd pleaser. The pot stickers were over cooked but b/c the main dishes were so yummy, we didn't really care. The white rice that accompanied our dishes, were in small containers that were about 3/4 of the way full. Overall, the meal was good. Good enough that we convinced my sister to come over for dinner three nights later and have it with us. We called & ordered the same two dishes, Basil Chicken and Five Star Chicken for my fiance and myself. My sister looked over their online menu & selected the Garlic Peppered Stir Fried Shrimp & the Crab Wheel App. We decided to give the Spring Rolls a Try. Let me explain how I ordered: A Basil Chicken (mild), a Five Star Chicken, The Garlic Peppered Shrimp, a Crab Wheel appetizer and one order of 2 spring rolls. The woman on the phone told us it was "about 45 minutes or 30 for pick up". I didn't care for the broad window because I don't want cold food. My fiance went to pick up dinner. Came back with Everything we ordered, but two orders of the spring rolls. Why? I don't know. After we eat, grab the receipt so I can review it, and then lets call and discuss. As my sister plated her dinner, she pointed out that the Garlic Shrimp was kinda small considering it was $11. I looked at it, and it was all broccoli and 5 little shrimp. Her crab wheels looked interesting, but they looked really greasy! Ick! She offered me one and because of the way they looked, I wasn't touching them. She also said "is this all the rice we get in this container? There isn't much here." My fiance & I were plating our food and noticed the same issue with our rice. Hardly enough for half a serving of the chicken dish. Each container is probably about 12 oz. There was only about 5-6 oz of rice in each and was in no way packed in like we're use to getting from most restaurants like these. He was happy with his Five Star chicken & my basil chicken was pretty good, just spicier than "mild" as requested. I decided to call and talk to a manager. The woman that originally took our order, answered. She told me that her brother, the owner, was cooking but she asked if she could help me. I explained our issues. The extra spring rolls, the unappetizing crab wheels, the lack of shrimp, the lack of rice and the abundance of spice. I got to mention everything except the spice because when I got to the issue of the extra spring rolls, she turned from sweet little lady on the phone to crazy woman and actually yelled at me. She told me "YOU ORDERED TWO SPRING ROLLS, THAT MEANS TWO ORDERS". I replied and said "No, I said ONE order of TWO spring rolls." She corrected me and said "No one ever specifies how many they want, they just say how many orders, so you ordered two". That was totally unacceptable to me as I explained AGAIN that I only ordered "ONE order of TWO spring rolls" My sister heard me place the order and confirmed that it, in fact, was exactly what I said. She said "Well, I'm sorry, but what do you want me to do?" I suggested that perhaps she could have read me back the order before hanging up the phone to confirm she had the proper order. She said, "Well, I apologized, what else do you want?" I told her that I want my money back for the extra spring rolls. She said no, you ordered them and ate them. I explained that we actually did not touch the second order and if they want them back and the crab wheels, they can send a driver to come get them. I want my money back for these items. She never offered a resolution. She told me if I was unsatisfied, to call back when the owner was available and hung up on me. Perhaps he will contact me after he reads my review. read more

Nice lunch specials, but only if you dine in. Good food and nice people. I'll frequent the restaurant! I do wish there were specials for take out since sometimes it's hard to go eat during the work day. read more

I've loved everything I've ordered from this place! I'm only giving it a 4, since I've only done delivery, and not sure how it is to eat inside (and sometimes my food is too spicy, even if I order it medium or low spicy). I generally order their curry, and it's super tasty. read more

I dont understand how ANYONE can mess up on Spring Rolls. They smelled and looked like they were 2 days old. Peanut sauce was all watery when it should be thick. Even Sriracha sauce doesnt help it go down my stomach. I even opened up the spring rolls to try to find out what was the issue was and found a rotting basil leaf. I offered my dog some and even HE shot it down. That pretty much explains it... Jungle Curry with chicken was more like Chinese takeout Chili Oil mixed with vegetables and chicken. The best part of the curry was the string beans. Next time I'll just stick to Chinese takeout! read more

This place is okay. I personally will never come back though, no matter how bad I am craving Thai food. I ordered the basil chicken and a Tom Yum soup to go. The chicken first of all wasn't grounded up, even though it says in their menu ground chicken. It obviously still tastes the same, but I was a little thrown off by it. This was not the deal breaker for my two star rating however. Any ground meat that is not cooked thoroughly carries more bacteria, so in all honesty, I really didn't mind. The deal breaker is how both my dish and soup were incredibly greasy!! very disappointing .. i love the basil chicken sauce with rice, but i didn't mix it like normal because i didn't want to eat all that grease. The Tom Yum soup had a good taste to it, and it was nice and spicy, but it's like they didn't strain it or something. Every mouthful I took, I was spitting out a piece of lemongrass. Now I know that lemongrass is one of the main ingredients, but never in other Thai restaurants did I have to consistently keep taking it out of my mouth!! It was really annoying. I did take out, so I can't comment on their service. The taste is there, they just need to chill out on the oil. read more

Service is ... laid back. The food is savory, and of exceptional quality. I'm so glad I can get away from the office and just enjoy the lovely music in the background. Lunch dine in specials are a steal! read more

IN THE GREAT SUBURBAN THAI LUNCH SPECIAL WARS Dan Thai is a major contender. While the lunch special menu contains most of the usual suspects (pad thai, pad khee mao, etc.) they also have a pretty extensive regular menu for authentic dishes like larb and somtum. In particular, they make an excellent green curry and they actually listened to me when I asked them to make it hot. I was sweating! I liked that once they noticed how much water I was drinking that they placed an entire carafe of water on my table so I could extinguish the flames in my mouth at my leisure. read more

Checked this place out since we were in the area for lunch on Sunday. It was about 2:00 PM and the plaza that it's in was completely dead. Walked in to find one other table eating. As soon as we sat down we all ordered our Thai Iced Tea/Coffee which is always delicious. Appetizer round of Crab Rangoons followed of course! They were yummy as well.. Now these things are hard to mess up so i'm still waiting for judgment time. Now any Thai joint I go to, I need to try their versions of my favorite Thai dish which is the spicy catfish. As my plate came out, it looked promising. It was a good sized portion and accompanied by a bowl of white rice. Yes! Thank you Dan Thai for meeting my expectations. While not as good as some, definitely worth it for me as it hit the spot. Would've liked it to be a little more saucy for it was just a smidge dry for my taste but great nonetheless. Everyone else I was with seemed pleased as well. If we are around the area this will definitely be an option for myself again. The decor, like any smaller That restaurant around. Home like feel with some sort of marine life. They surprisingly had a small but neat looking salt water aquarium! I love salt water fish mainly because I have no time to take care of them but the colors, vewy pwetty! If you're near, and like Thai food, give it a shot. read more

A rather large group of us came here September 6th, 2014. We all ordered different dishes ranging from rices, to curries, to pad Thai, along with appetizers. I was lucky enough to get to try just about everything- each dish was well prepared, flavorful, fresh and yum-tacular! Most served with rice and spiced to order. Portions were large, and our waitress worked with us to make sure we had enough appetizers for all to enjoy. Water, beverages and plates were all well maintained by staff and they even helped us cut and share a homemade cake! At the end, the waitress offered to split the check. She didn't ask- she offered! Great service, great food and it made for a wonderful overall experience. Pricing was reasonable, small location, but intimate with a nice ambiance and private parking area. read more

Disappointed. I had Rama Thai Noodle and he had something with eggplant and tofu. Both very bland even though we asked for extra spicy on the eggplant. Steamed spring rolls were good but vey loosely rolled so they fell apart. He loved the edamame but that is pretty difficult to mess up. Veg fried rice was ok but again was bland. My dish had a stone in it that cracked a tooth. I went here because Thai Tannee closed and thought I would give it a try. Walked in to pick up to go order and place smelled like bleach. May have been residual from decorative water feature. I had hoped that this would be our new go to place. I will never go back. Disappointed. read more

This place is really hidden and unexpected. Delicious stir fry dishes. I asked for spicy and boy I got my wish! Yikes. But in a really good way. So many places are afraid to spice it up...even when I request it. Also, the service was terrific. $33.00 for a beer, large combo appetizer, side of rice for a kid, and 2 huge entrees! Not bad at all! Quiet on a Saturday evening though. I really hope more people go here cause I like this place. Not fancy by any means, but the food was damned good. read more

The food is a 4 star but service is a 1 star. I had the panang curry noodles and when I asked about what the difference was on the 3 sauces I can pick from, the waitress had no idea. We had to ask for water refills. I had to take napkins from other tables as my child spilled water and no one came to clean the spill nor were we offered any extra napkins at all. My husband and daughter went to look at the fish and our same waitress asked how any people in their party....the place was very empty like 5 booth were occupied....how she did not notice she was our waitress I have no idea. The food was good. It had a good flavor but my dish was a noodle dish and it barely had any noodles. Small portion for Thai food for this kind of establishment I think. Just order take out as service is awful...better eating it at your own home. read more

We found this place on accident and so glad we did, it really is a hidden gem. Right when we walked in we where greeted and sat. The waitress was very sweet and very attentive to us. I was very excited when we got the menus because they had a ton of options for you. To start my order I got the Tofu Tom Yum soup and hands down the best Tom Yum soup I've ever had. They ask you how hot you want your food and since I love spicy I got the extra spicy. The flavor in the soup is amazing and they are not afraid to spice it up for you like some places. When they say spicy they mean it. For dinner I had the Seafood Drunken Noodles, again extra spicy. I am very picky about seafood at certain places but the seafood in this dish was delicious. It tasted fresh and was just so good. The noodles where cooked perfectly and the spice and flavor again where just perfect. I highly recommend this place to Thai food lovers and spicy food lovers. I suggest getting the medium spice if you are not sure about to spicy. I already want to go back and try new things. The waitress always made sure we had beverages and came back to check on us. Pricing is very fair, for the 4 of us including two appetizers the total was about $60.00. read more

Dan Thai is middle of the road Thai cuisine. Now having moved from Lisle, land devoid of any decent Thai I should be festive if not joyous at any sort of ok Thai but being closer to actual civilization I was hoping for more from a place that got a pair of 4 star reviews here. "Best Thai restaurant so far in Schaumburg," says one. I hope not, for my sake. We stuck to standard dishes, having gotten a combination appetizer plate and then Ped Se Ewe and Rama Chicken Noodles. The appetizers were very "eh," being under seasoned and very ordinary. The entrees had appeal, the beef in the Pad Se Ewe being very tender and the dish overall not being too salty but still retaining a good soy flavor. The Rama Noodles were a nice combination of rice noodles, chicken and a slightly spicy peanut sauce with broccoli on the side. I can't complain about the dish, I ate and enjoyed it but there was no wow factor to any of it. I don't know, maybe I'm just picky but if Dan Thai is the best Schaumburg can do I might have to look a little further to get my Thai on. read more

A Friend of ours recommended this place to us. I being a big fan of Thai food tried it out ...WOWWWW this place was toooooooooooo good ... We tried couple of soups and they were really good. For main course we tried drunken noodles, panang curry and basil fried rice .. All of them were delicious..... The waitress were very cute and polite... excellent atmosphere...Overall i would definately recommend people to this place... excellent prices too .. I will vissit there soon. read more

Wonderful food. Everyone in my party loved it. I had the curry. Service was exceptional. The ingredients are very fresh, and the prices are reasonable. This is a little gem tucked away in a strip mall. There is a huge aquarium in the center of the room. They do EVERTHING well. However, the washroom was falling apart and a little run down. A place as nice as this deserves to have a washroom that reflects the same level of detail that is evident in everything else. I hope that the owners see this review, because I REALLY LIKE THIS RESTAURANT. Please fix this. read more

This is by far the best Thai restaurant I've been to. I've been to other Thai restaurants and was expecting them all to be the same and the results being pretty much the same. I've been here a few times now and have been impressed each time. Here's what I've had: - Tom Yum (9/10) - Tom Kha (10/10) - Crab wheel (1/10) - Panang curry (10/10) Tom yum & Kha I've had these both several times at other Thai joints and they've always been just ok. Usually too much meat, too much mushrooms, too much ginger, too much lemon grass or whatever those green spears are that are trying to disguise themselves as green onions, etc. The ratio of everything was great. When I asked for it to be spicy it actually was. I don't know if it's because I'm white and evidently some white people can't handle spicy, but they actually was spicy. It sounds odd, but I like the runny-nose spicy. Crab Wheel This was just plain nasty. The crab wheels, similar to a potstickers, had no flavor; at least desirable. The crab actually tasted rotten. I tried a few hoping maybe just the first one was bad, but it never got better and the sauce was of of no help. So my advice is to keep away. Panang Curry I've had this dish at a few other places and have liked this. Out of the other dishes I've had at Thai Places this has become a dish to try much like a ribeye at a steakhouse. All I can say is this was by far the best. I've tried this at other Asian\Thai places and they've been good, but nothing like this. The consistency of the sauce and peanut flavor are perfect. The chicken is tender and peppers good just right. It is a decent size so don't go crazy on appetizers. This is a must have dish, unless you have peanut allergies...if that's the case I hear the Pad See Ew is good. I highly recommend visiting this restaurant. A nice environment and the food is great. You wouldnt think this place is good based on the location, but those are usually the good places to go. I will definitely go again as the food has not yet disappointed me, apart from the crap wheels. It's consistency has made this a place I'll go to again and again. read more

If I am reviewing the food, this would get 4-5 stars easily but the service is pretty bad. We came here with a group of 8 on a Sunday night at around 7 pm and they maybe had 1-2 other tables. We were quickly seated and given water but that is where the good service ended. We ordered some shumai dumplings, Panang Curry and Red Curry. We waited, and waited and waited and then got our appetizers. The dumplings were fantastic, especially the sauce that was served with them. It was another wait for the food and then our dishes kind of staggered out, each one coming a couple of minutes after the other one. The food was pretty amazing. I loved everything about my curry and it was a pretty large portion. I will say that one of the people I was dining with was dissapointed because the restaurant will not allow you to substitute fried rice for steamed rice with your entree. So if you want fried rice, you have to get a whole order which is pretty large. The good news is that the fried rice is the best I have ever tasted. To get the check was probably the longest wait of all of the waiting we had done during our quick dinner. Had the service been better this place could easily be a 5. read more

Dan Thai has the best chicken Pad Thai that I've ever had. They deliver, which is wonderful, but I've picked up as well. The place is in a strip mall, and it's very well maintained. I'd like to dine in sometime! I've enjoyed the few appetizers I've had as well. My boyfriend is not a fan of Thai food and he really enjoys this place. He likes the duck dishes. read more

This is not the best Thai place but being behind my house and have reasonable prices, it's not bad. They have a very pretty salt water fish tank as you walk in. The owner talked to us for at least 10 mins on our way out about it, very friendly person to talk to. The inside is nicely decorated as well. Menu has alot of variety and is priced reasonably. I had the Panang beef noodles which was tasty and the beef was good quality. Some Asian places beef tends to be lower quality and on the rubbery side. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Went again on April 16th and tried the chicken basil, which was ground chicken breast, and it was delicious! Also the thai ice tea is really good and under $2! read more

I came here for my Birthday on Monday night. The owners were very accommodating as reservations were made for 14 people, but by the end of the night 20 people showed up. The waiters were more than happy to move tables around so we all could be seated together. Although I have been to this restaurant a number of times, it was a friend who made all the orders ahead of time as well as the accommodations as he eats here at least once a week. It was a pleasant surprise that it was a prefixed dinner as I got to try dishes that I would normally not get, like their papaya salad and their spicy ground meat and shrimp on lettuce wrap....All so very good. I had so many favorite dishes, all prepared hot and very fresh. The last few times I've been here, I ordered the duck in yellow curry sauce with pineapples. It is absolutely one of my favs. The curry has just the right amount of coconut crème and a hint of chillie, combined with chunks of pineapples. All the fusion of flavors exploding in my mouth, made me so excited that I wanted to pee my pants...just kidding. Oh I forgot to mention, their Shrimp Pad Thai is one of the best in the burbs. The shrimp are humongous !!! and oh so succulent. And you also have to try their fist cakes served with cucumber salad for appetizers. The décor is laid back but beautiful. There's intricate wood carvings on the wall and a saltwater aquarium when you first enter the place. I know this was set up to Feng Shui esthetics. The place is moderately small but very clean and the owners are also the waiters, so they are very attentive and know the menu well. read more

Went to Dan Thai a couple of days ago to try Thai food for the first time. I think I'll be going back to try some other things. I had no idea what to expect. I'd heard of Pad Thai so I tried that. I have had veggie spring rolls at Chinese restaurants so I also tried them. I wasn't expecting cold spring rolls as they are always hot at Chinese restaurants. They were ok. Not sure I'll get them again. Maybe eggrolls next time. The pad thai - that I'll go back for. It came with a variety of hot, and not so hot, sauces. I tried them all but liked the hottest one best. Made me sweat and even made my nose run a little, but it wasn't a nuclear burn. Just a persistent heat. The server was very nice, very helpful and took all the time a Thai food virgin needed. I told my wife about it and now she wants to go so we'll probably be going there Friday. If you pay for everything by credit card like I do, you may want to know that there is a minimum of $15 for credit card and if you want it delivered, there is a $3 delivery charge if you're within 3 miles. Both are according to their website. read more

My new favorite Thai place! Stumbled upon this place on yelp and it has really good rating and review and decided and come try it. The rating and reviews are legit ! The food is amazing ! The servers are very nice and welcoming , I've tried their Kao Soi , basil fried rice and ask their hot and sour noodle soup. The place is a little small and doesn't have a fancy interior but that didn't matter , the food was really food. If you are a Thai food lover like me , give this place a try :) ! It became my go-to Thai place now ! read more

See all

My husband and I are regular at this place...carry out and eat-in. I have also introduced several of my friends here, and we all love it! The atmosphere is casual with homey feel to it...people are friendly except when I ask for more than a couple hot sauce for carry out they give me the looks...we like extra hot sauce on our food! The food is amazing!! We have never been disappointed with the food...it is reasonable and tasty. check it out if you are in the area. read more

We love Dan Thai and order often for delivery. The deliver is fast and the food is hot. In addition we have a food allergy and they get the order right every time. read more

Went here for the first time today. Food was very bland and had no flavor. I got the chicken pad thai and crab rangoon. Chicken was dry and Pad Thai was very plain. Don't let the looks deceive you because I also thought the food looked great but unfortunately the taste just wasn't there. Crab rangoon was more like cream cheese rangoon, didn't taste like crab at all. Don't think I will be going back, which is ashame because the prices weren't that bad. read more

Dan Thai - Pad thai - Thai Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

Food was just OK. I expected more for the overall rating. The veggies didn't seem fresh and/or over cooked. Tom yum not up to standard, noodles were good and rice was good. Also panang curry had a good flavor but overall food combo was okay. read more

Extra star b/c the folks who run this place are exceedingly gracious and kind, and I do wish I could've rated the food better, but i've definitely had better Thai. Went here for the MIL's birthday as she knows the owners well. She had the whole menu picked out for our group of twelve, and while she selected great items, the food didn't wow me...and to be fair, it didn't wow her either. Started w the gway dee-oh which is basically a beef broth noodle soup with spinach, some veggies and sliced beef. This is a dish that the MIL has perfected and hers is best in Chicagoland, no contest; the gway dee-oh from Dan Thai was heavy handed w star anise, and well, if you've too much of that spice in any dish, it usually doesn't translate well, unless you enjoy eating flower petals or chewing on evergreen trees, but I digress, it wasn't *that* bad, just not my cup of tea. Next up were the apps; egg roll, chicken satay w peanut sauce and crab rangoon...all decent and pretty textbook, nothing really stood out. Then came the entress, and they continued to come, in droves, it was a ton of food. Pad Thai, Pad See Eiw, Panang Nue, Beef and Broccoli, a few Curries and some fried rice. All pretty decent but again, nothing that stood out as absolute quality. The death by chocolate cake ordered from Cheesecake Factory as the dessert, now *that was quality, sinfully decadent would be a monuMENTAL understatement. read more

We were three of us headed there for a late lunch. We had the tom-yum soup with tofu/veggie (small) and spicy, it was really spicy. It was good though but I felt the veggies were a little raw, they could have been boiled and cooked a little more. Then each of us had something different, one person had the red curry with crispy noodles, the curry was really good in my opinion, one another person had the drunken noodles with tofu, that was also good. I had the pad thai with chicken, it was really good. I really liked the entrees. Then we had the Taro custard, which was pudding but it tasted like sweet egg with coconut, too eggy taste for some reason and had the banana in the blanket with lychee ice cream, that was good. I particularly enjoyed the banana in the blanket which is nothing but a piece of banana wrapped with crispy outer shell of flour I guess. The service was really friendly and place had really nice decor. read more

Good service, food is mediocre, but not bad! Food is not that authentic and small portion.

My family has been here several times, and have never been disappointed. The food is excellent and the staff extremely friendly. They were also very sweet and accommodating with our two year old. Note they are kid friendly but the place is not loud or chaotic by any means. Its actually quite peaceful. Highly recommend! read more

Service was good but don't order the pad see eew. It was fishy. I ordered beef pad see eww and it smelled horrible . The chicken satay was good but the pad see eew was horrible! I had the chef smell it and they told me they use fish sauce to cook it which was not true. I know what fish sauce taste like and that was defiantly not fish sauce. I was still charged for the dish. Incredible place. read more

Dan Thai - Yuk. It's suppose to be beef but it was fishy. Stay away from this dish. It was the worst Thai food ever! - Thai Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois
