I was ordering takeout, but there's also a little sitting area where I could wait near the front door. There's was a little bit of a wait since I did not call ahead, but not too bad. And the food tasted very fresh, so it was worth the wait! I ordered: Crispy Thai spring rolls $6.98 Panang curry chicken $11.98 Both dishes were tasty. I asked for a little extra spice for the panang and it was perfect! I'll definitely be going back to try more on their menu.

I came here first for lunch while he was competing in a Scrabble tournament. I ordered the chicken and tofu Pad Thai, and it was so good that after he finished his tournament, I suggested we come back to the same restaurant for dinner that very same day lol For dinner, I ordered the fried rice, while he got a sushi platter that came with complimentary miso soup. Everything was delicious. We were impressed with both meals and would definitely keep coming back whenever we're in town. The only downside is that the restaurant is quite small, and finding a parking spot can sometimes take a while. Other than that, we had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend it!

I liked that the lunch special had some cucumber pieces to cleanse the palate. My Pad Thai reminds me of the college Thai food that is well made enough but might seem a bit premade. If you like the profile, slightly sticky and chewy noodles with pretty strong sweet flavor profile, this is not bad. Egg roll was light and crunchy, some might like that. Overall I think the Thai flavor is a bit muted, and it's leaning sweet to fit non-Asian palate. It's not bad, but also I think there are better Thai places around Chicago.

Certainly there's noodles but there's still lots more. The prices are good and there's lots of choices for vegetarians. Finding it takes a good look. It's located in a strip mall. The place doesn't look like much. On the outside it's pretty boring. The inside isn't much better except for some random ornaments on the walls. Most people get carryout it seems, making the interior not that important. The place has some lunch specials. I was around at the time and decided to come in. The entree I got was the Pad Kee Mao. It's about $10 for the lunch special. The lunch specials comes with a soup which isn't vegetarian. Better to just get the full dinner entree. This is the same price and you get a bigger plate. Get here for some big and cheap portions of Thai food. It of course has noodles. There's lots of items that can be made vegan and vegetarian so just ask to leave out eggs and fish stuff.

It was the perfect opportunity to try a variety of items. Here is what we ordered: Thai iced tea (4) Egg roll, vegetarian (4) Chicken satay (2) Pad see eiw w/beef (2) Crispy Thai noodles w/tofu (2) Green curry with tofu (2) Basil seafood with extra seafood mix (2) Mixed veggie stir-fry with shrimp (2) Mango and sticky rice (4) Overall, we were satisfied with the flavor profiles and everything was delivered in an efficient manner. The portions are not large and I think we would order two more entrees when we revisit with our large group of 14. We have had mango and sticky rice many times in the past. This is our first time having it with a purple-bluish color sticky rice. I don't think it made much difference with the flavors but the kids were turned off by it and refused to try. Then again, kids are sporadic and we can never truly tell what appeals to them. The mango was not ripe but this was back in March when mangos were not in season. Otherwise, we would definitely return and we are eager to try the other items such as crispy catfish curry and pepper squid.

Our server was nice as we were one the last customers and we didnt feel rushed. The chicken pad Thai wasn't my favorite its flavor profile wasn't as strong and sweet as I am used to. The teriyaki chicken was actually good as the chicken wasn't overcooked. If I'm in the area I would stop by again.

We ordered spicy garlic shrimp as a rice paper wrap, Thai pork belly (sandwich), and Sichuan spicy brisket (sandwich). The food was just as excellent as the first time we came here. I'm glad they kept consistent after all these years. Sichuan spicy brisket was a tad bit spicy but nothing overwhelming. The meat in the Thai pork belly was very tender and juicy. The spicy garlic shrimp as a rice paper wrap is a great alternative if you're on a low carb diet or you can't handle gluten.

Even the drinks in the cooker area were very interesting that I had never seen before. It's very clear that this is a very well thought out restaurant. The only feedback I would give is to add a couple of options for vegan gluten free in the menu. My wrap had to be customized and communicating with the chef was a bit of a challenge due to language.
