Khao soy
Connie K.

***3.5 stars*** We made a quick trip to the city to have lunch and decided to try out Noble. Thai. The interior of the restaurant is very open and I liked the space itself. I had made a reservation (we came on a Saturday) but it wasn't necessary as there were plenty of open tables. I had the khao soy (egg noodles, sliced chicken, coconut curry, and topped with crispy egg noodles, sliced onions, and lime). The flavor was decent but the chicken was dry. Hubby had the pad Thai (thin rice noodles, chicken, bean sprouts, eggs, green onion, ground peanuts, tamarind sauce) which was pretty small to his dismay. He wasn't full after his meal so he finished the rest of mine. However, the menu prices are reasonable.

Ordered for takeout out and it is one of the best new to me restaurants I've tried in a while. The panang curry is incredible and I would suggest upsizing to a large rice. The pad see lew and tiger cry were both flavorful and great portioned sized. Their crab Rangoons are also the best I've found in a while. Since this was to go I cannot comment on the service or ambiance but will be ordering from here again soon

41. Pad See-Iew
Mar R.

I ordered takeout. The massman curry was fine. The pad see ew was terrible. I ordered it mild and there's a ton of chilli flakes on top. There was no sauce, the noodles were dry and flavorless. Typically there's broccoli in the dish, but I think it was kale was very thick, woody stems. I had to throw it out

41. Pad See-Iew (chicken)
Eva L.

We always order takeout of Noble Thai! The crying tiger and chicken wings are a must for us. The dishes are delicious on their own but even more elevated with the sauces that come with them. The pad Thai and the pad see-iew were pretty standard.

Wow, this seems like a cute neighborhood spot :) They're always busy with takeout orders in the front. When you walk in, you're surprised by the spacious dining area. It feels a bit like a university dining hall with the way the tables are set up. I loved how relaxed it felt. What we ordered: - Papaya Salad: The citrusy flavor really opened my appetite. Loved this! - Tiger Cry: Can't go wrong with this. The marinated beef was so flavorful. - Fried Chicken Wings: Essentially salt and pepper chicken. Not bad but a bit basic. I'd try something else on the menu next time. - Pad Thai: They really crushed it! Sweet, savory, and sour ~ all the flavors meshed perfectly.

The ambiance and decoration inside is so nice. We were seated pretty quickly and the service was great. I would say their tiger cry was really good so tender and filled with so much flavors. I also like their pad Thai, other places it is soggy but this place made it really good, wished there was bean sprouts on side rather than cabbage. The khao soy was good and had the right amount of spices the way you ask them. It was so creamy. They also offer drinks like cocktails and they have a happy hour as well, but we got their Thai iced tea and it was good.

Great Thai spot in West Town to visit or take out. The Panang curry and pad Thai are great dishes, give them a try Pro tip: try the crab rangoon you won't be disappointed!

42. Kuay Tiew Kee Mao w/ beef
Jose C.

We did takeout from Noble Thai. My order was ready before the promised time. The inside did look very upscale for a Thai restaurant. Which was nice to see and the staff was great as well. We order their Pad See-Iew with chicken and Kuay Tiew Kee Mao with beef. Both dishes were delicious. Lately Thai has been a hit or miss for some odd reason, but Noble Thai was a good pick. The Kee Mao was spicy and the beef was very tender. The noodles were cooked perfectly. We also ordered their Mango Sticky Rice. This was also good and available for a fair price. Overall we were really satisfied with Noble Thai and will definitely consider returning.

This place has such a cute ambiance and really liked how the service was quick. The food came out in a timely manner and really enjoyed their pad thai which was not at all soggy like other places. Their tiger cry was so good with a side of dipping sauce. Their Thai tea was also good and you can see the cream.

Noble Thai was an absolute treat! I'd go so far as to say it's some of the best Thai food in the city--and the prices are refreshingly reasonable. I made a reservation for a Thursday night, and it wasn't too busy, which made for a relaxed dining experience. We kicked things off with two cocktails that were both tasty and well-priced. For our appetizer, we chose the Chicken Satay--and wow, the peanut sauce it came with was so good I could've honestly sipped it like a drink! For our entrees, we ordered the Gaeng Masaman and the Gaeng Pet Ped. While the Gaeng Masaman didn't have quite as much flavor as I had hoped, the Gaeng Pet Ped absolutely delivered--it was rich, aromatic, and everything you want in a great curry dish. The portions were generous enough that we needed takeout containers. We'll definitely be back next time we're on that side of town!

Yum yum yummy! What an AMAZING place. We went around 4:30p and were seated immediately as the place was empty. I actually loved that because it was peaceful especially with their decor - it's so well thought out. We ordered what is pictured + chicken pad thai (not pictured). Everything was excellent! Different flavor profiles that just all make sense. Their sauces and spices are soo good I wish I could take some home lol This has easily become my favorite Thai spot in Chicago. Just go!

30. Pad Paak Roum Mit with chicken and 41. Pad See-Iew with shrimp
Karen L.

I wanted to love this place. The interior is cute and the service was great. But the food was without question very mid. Started with the Tiger Cry - it was so incredibly dry and over cooked that it was like chewing jerky. Not spicy at all. My husband got the pad see-lew with shrimp and spice level 1. I got the pad paak roum mit with chicken spice level four. They were both equal spicy which to me was maybe a level three. I have no idea why they even asked us. My dish was kind of tasteless otherwise. The best part was sadly the Thai donuts which is fried dough with sugar so kinda hard to mess up. We will keep exploring the neighborhood for a regular Thai spot cause this wasn't it for us.

Sunday Funday with a fantastic first visit to a Chinatown gem!…read more I felt like Chinese food today, and rather than eating at my neighborhood regular, I wanted to go straight to Chinatown for the most delicious, authentic experience. Thanks to my deep dive and discovery on Yelp, MCCB turned out to be the perfect spot to achieve this. The restaurant has held its Michelin status for five years now, and for my first time visiting, the flavors here were incredible. Please note: the restaurant signage is not easily visible from the street since the storefront faces inward toward the mall plaza, and while looking for it, I ended up asking a local man and his wife for directions. He was so kind and welcoming that he unexpectedly left his wife on the sidewalk, my husband in the car, and walked me right across the street and into the mall to point it out from the inside! WAIT TIME: there is a 1 to 1.25 hour wait period to be seated for a table, and a $10 fee via credit card is required to secure your spot, which is then fully transferable to your bill upon checkout. The wait is a great time to walk, explore the shops, restaurants, all Chinatown has to offer, and get your steps and miles in! SERVICE: our first server, Allen, was a bit on the stiff, curt side, but overall nice. However, we had to move from a two-top table to a four-top to accommodate all the dishes we were trying. In that changeover, we were blessed to get one of the BEST servers there, Ashley, who made the experience wonderful. FOOD: we ordered an absolute feast, starting with three starters. The Cheng Du Style Dumplings were fantastic. The Crispy Crab Rangoons were actually not mini at all and had a great crunch. The Szechuan Style Cucumber was a bit underwhelming and a slight bit on the soft side for my tastes, as I prefer my veggies crunchy even when cooked. We ordered everything with the mild heat option so there was no overwhelming spice, just great flavor. For the main dishes, we started with the Cauliflower Flank Steak and added broccoli to it, which was a fantastic addition. It is cooked in an oyster sauce and has none of the standard sweeter seasonings of the other dishes. I chose this to balance a sweet and salty rationing across my dishes, finding that MCCB is a great place to get that perfect balance. The Chicken in Spicy Garlic Sauce was perfect with the mild heat option as well, and the Honey Black Pepper Flank Steak was also incredibly savory, tender, and good. We paired everything with garlic string beans, white rice, and a great jumbo shrimp fried rice. I preferred water, while my husband had a few Diet Cokes. The food comes out hot, fresh, and bursting with flavor. PARKING: parking is convenient--there is street parking or you can use the two north and south lots within walking distance. The north lot is on Archer and Wentworth, and the south lot is on Cermak and Wentworth. Validated parking is permitted for a maximum of 3 hours, and you will only pay $3 with the validation. Just make sure to stay within that time limit and get it validated, because if you go over the 3 hours or forget the validation, you will have to pay the full price for the lot. PRICE: the pricing here is very reasonable for a Michelin-recognized restaurant. Our dinner came out to just under $146 total, which offers phenomenal value given the large portions and top-tier quality. If you are seeking high-quality, delicious Sichuan food in Chinatown that completely lives up to its multi-year Michelin status, and can be customized perfectly to your spice comfort, this is a great place to go. Highly recommend and will return with family!

If you come with a group of nine people and two or three are running late they will not seat you…read moreand then we'll give your table to someone else. Make sure all of your party is on time and they are off here. You get Michelin food but not Michelin service They only have ONE waiter ONE ( on Wednesday night) for every table here. It took me about 10 minutes to get Allen's (the only waiter) attention so that I can get my plate changed bc I didn't like what I got (beef dry signature) and my sister ordered fried rice with egg and there was no egg in it and the waiter said there's a little one egg. A bit of egg. I see one egg in there one small egg that was not enough.. It's a very small restaurant with an amount of maybe 15 tables small but they will accommodate a large group and put tables together. And still, it will be very small.. I'm using that one li The dry signature spicy meal (chicken or beef) all come breaded and it is not mentioned that it's breaded on the menu I was not happy with that. I was expecting non-breaded, but they accommodated me and changed my dish Kindly.

5 stars for the cold gluten salad and the flatbreads, 4 or 5 stars for the noodle soup. I'm…read morerounding up to 5 because, well, maybe I ordered wrong. The cold gluten salad is a true highlight here, with an impeccable springy texture and an absolutely perfect mix of chili oil and sesame in the seasoning. The flatbread was also a standout, being perfectly crunchy and flavorful alongside a cumin lamb with a good punch. I was less impressed by the hand-pulled noodles. The soup itself was fine, as were the lamb intestines (though I really prefer them grilled). However, for hand-stretched noodles, the noodles were just lacking and missing something. Maybe wheat noodles get better the further west you go, and it just isn't quite Lanzhou style.

Went here by myself for dinner on a weekday around 6pm, and honestly, the whole experience was…read morepretty strange. The restaurant was almost completely empty, but the waitress started rushing me to order before I'd even had a minute to look at the menu. I told her I was still looking, but she came back shortly after asking me to order again, and eventually brought her iPad over and continued rushing me. I'm not sure what the hurry was when there were barely any customers. I ordered the biang biang noodles with lamb, and unfortunately, they were pretty disappointing. The noodle thickness was really inconsistent, so some parts were overcooked while others seemed undercooked. The flavor was okay, but nothing special. To make things even more awkward, the waitress brought out a lamb burger that I never ordered and insisted that it was on my order when she showed me the receipt. She eventually took it off, but it was frustrating to have to explain that I hadn't ordered something that she had entered herself. Overall, it was just an uncomfortable dining experience, from being rushed for no reason to the confusion over the extra item. The food was average at best, and I probably wouldn't come back. Ambiance was normal nothing special.

Our large group was accommodated easily, and we were served relatively quickly after an initial delay while we were waiting for someone to come by. Food came soon after that. We ordered a wide range of things: honey shrimp, beef tripe, pork intestine, Hong Kong style fried noodles. Everything here is solid and delicious. Portions are reasonable too. Ambience is nice, clean, and modern. Only issue while we were here is that some in our group tried to order their baked chicken over spaghetti and they were out of spaghetti. Interesting basic ingredient to be short on here, but rice was not a bad substitute. Would definitely come back here if ever back in Chicago!

You can always count on Chi Cafe for a satisfying meal when hungover. Things have definitely changed over the years. After COVID, the hours became more limited, and the neighborhood has faced challenges that have unfortunately affected the area's late-night scene. It's sad but Chi Cafe still delivers when you're craving quick, comforting food. Whether it's a bowl of noodles, , baked rice dishes, Hong Kong-style cafe classics, or a late-night snack, the menu has plenty of options that satisfy those comfort food cravings. It's the kind of place where you know exactly what you're getting, and sometimes that's exactly what you want. The biggest downside is that prices have increased noticeably over the years while portions seem to have gone in the opposite direction. What used to feel like an incredible value now feels like a clear case of shrinkflation. The portions are smaller, and the bill is definitely higher than it used to be, which can be a little disappointing for longtime customers who remember the old days. Even with those changes, I still find myself coming back here just not as often. There's a nostalgia factor that's hard to replace, and the food continues to hit the spot when I'm looking for something warm, filling, and familiar. For me, Chi Cafe remains one of those places that may not be quite what it used to be, but it's still worth visiting when you're in the neighborhood and looking for a dependable meal.
