a food truck parked in front of a restaurant
Molly S.

I was so happy to see Katie's tiny Thai food truck appear last week in Elgin! We have been twice already and will surely be regulars. The prices are very reasonable for the great quality. Don't be afraid to ask Katie to spice it up, too! She makes everything from scratch every day. So far we've tried the eggrolls, potstickers w/ spicy red curry, Chicken fried rice w/ basil (kao pad kapow), Spicy Ginger Chicken (Gai pad king), Neua Yum Nam Tok (waterfall), Chicken pad thai and the Drunken Noodle. The Pad Thai lacked something the first go around so I asked her to not hold back on the flavor the second time and it was GREAT! The sirloin "Waterfall" was full of flavor and had just the right amount of mint. The Drunken Noodle is very spicy and the Ginger Chicken was also a favorite. Katie let me sample a few of her homemade drinks, too. The lychee was sweet and delicious! I look forward to her soups this winter and to the daily specials she would like to start trying. As far as food in Elgin goes, this is certainly one of your very best bets!

Pineapple Curry

OMG! How have I not found this place before now! This is some of the best Thai food we have had since we traveled to Thailand. I had the Ka Prow and my husband had the Pineapple chicken curry. We got it spicy and be warned...it's Thai Spicy! This is exactly how it would be served in Thailand and we loved it, but if you aren't not used to Thai spicy go mild and build up. Very authentic, and so close to home we will be good friends! Looking forward to a long delicious relationship!

Yum yummy.

The food is fantastic! I am usually picky about my Thai food but this place is a winner! The lady is the sweetest too and gave us free potsticks samplers. I will be visiting again that's for sure. Go try it out. You won't regret it. She only has 1 table set outside right now so hopefully it will grow in the future. We just grabbed our food and took home since it was a bit chilly out.

Is this business still in business? I went to the business address but could not locate it. I called the business phone number twice and no one picked up during business hours.

Is she still in biz or back in biz? Looks fabulous.

Fabulous Thai food. The staff is amazing. I've had the red curry and the green curry and the pad…read moreThai. Highly recommended

Tried DA's Thai Cuisine for pickup and had a little bit of a mixed experience…read more First things first -- the place itself is nice, clean, and the staff is personable. No complaints there. Ordering and pickup were smooth. Now let's talk food. The deep-fried egg rolls (stuffed with carrots, cabbage, and clear bean noodles, served with sweet and sour sauce) were really good. Crispy, hot, and flavorful. Solid start. The steamed dumplings? Now those were the star of the show. Made with pork, shrimp, crab meat, green onions, and carrots -- and served with their special sauce. That sauce paired perfectly with the dumplings. Balanced, flavorful, and just worked. Out of everything we ordered, this was the clear home run. I also ordered what I believed to be the Thai papaya salad. From what I can tell comparing ingredients, I did receive the Thai-style version (shredded papaya, garlic, fish sauce, tomatoes, lime juice, palm sugar, topped with peanuts). Unfortunately, I was not impressed. I've had papaya salad at other Thai spots where the peanuts are roasted and really incorporated into the dish. Here, it felt like the peanuts were just tossed in at the end. The overall flavor just didn't come together, and I wouldn't order that again. My husband had the Thai fried rice (his second time ordering it), and he thoroughly enjoys it -- so that's a win on his side. For me, out of the egg rolls, papaya salad, and steamed dumplings -- the dumplings were the only real standout. Would I go back? Probably not. But that's just my experience -- don't let me be the deciding factor. Give it a try and see what hits for you.

We've always enjoyed Thai Spoon. Can't believe I haven't reviewed a staple of our diet lol. I…read moreusually opt for the drunken noodle (which is amazing flat noodle dish with tons of veggies). But today I went with the Chef's special "Spaghetti Kee Mao". She was a spicy one, but oh so good! Can't say I ever had a bad dish here. Service has always been solid and friendly. The restaurant is well situated, clean and not overly noisy. This is one restaurant I hope to visit for years to come. Thank you Thai Spoon!!! They also have in house ice cream (mango, coconut and Thai tea). We tried coconut and mango which were superb. We will try the Thai tea next. Also able to order to go incase you are full as servings are quite large. We did make a reservation to accommodate an elderly in-law. They kept us a booth open despite us running a tad behind and some other customers try to take it. Very grateful!!

Ordered food togo as I was craving thai! Ordering was easy…read moreand food was ready on arrival (before the projected pick up time) I ordered the yellow curry- super flavorful and right amount of spice however the potatoes were a little undercooked and tasted odd. The drunken noodles were good however the spice level was a little off from what I expected. The crab rangoons were great I loved the texture of the wrapper and flavor of the filling! Mango sticky rice was on point! Will definitely be back soon!

Two I always come back to bookend the same shopping center, Miller's Smokehouse and Narunya's. I have eaten Thai coast to coast. They all claim authenticity, but quality varies widely. Out of all that I've tried, Narunya's is a favorite. The restaurant itself has an interesting layout. There is no parking just for them, so it can be a challenge. There is a small lot on the side, but you have to jump the curb to access it. It has an indoor balcony area with plentiful seating, though I've never seen anyone up there. Every time I've come in, the food is excellently prepared and presented. Service has always been attentive with regular checking to ensure the food is good and my needs met Desserts are magnificent! Really, the only thing that gives it a demerit is the programming on their deplorable credit card machine. It is programmed not only to calculate your tip after tax, but also after the excessive credit card usage fee of 3.5%. So beware and select either custom tip or a lower percentage unless you like giving businesses unearned income.
