If you're looking for a new Asian food spot in the Chicago suburbs, Phat Phat in Schaumburg needs to be on your list. They're serving up a mix of Indonesian and Chinese flavors, and some really unique menu items We started with their Rainbow Imperial Xiao Long Bao, and this is definitely one of the most intresting things on the menu. Each color is completely different flavor, with everything from traditional Shanghai to, beef stew , truffle, spicy Szechuan, chicken curry, lemon, and orange chicken. So every dumpling gives you a completely different tasting experience. We also tried their Nasi Goreng, which is Indonesian fried rice with chicken and egg. This was savory, really flavorful, and It paired perfect with their spicy teriyaki chicken which i couldn't stop eating. But My favorite combo might have been their watermelon boba with mini chicken dumplings served right on top, this would be the perfect to go option in my opinion. And if you need something sweet, their new seasonal menu items are a must, like pumpkin and apple Halloween drink Or these little Ghost Baos, which has an apple and cinnamon filling. I honestly felt bad eating these little guys. The perfect fall combo if you ask me. Overall, Phat Phat has a great variety of Indonesian and Chinese dishes. Service was great, they were very attending to us and the inside very well lit and is perfect for your next date night! So next time you're craving asian cuisine, soup dumplings, boba, chicken, or just want to Phat Phat is the spot. read more

Phat Phat is one of my favorite restaurants in the Northwest suburbs! It has a large menu of pan-Asian food but my favorites are without a doubt the Indonesian dishes. Number one on that list would be nasi goreng, also known as Indonesian fried rice. If you're into spicy food, order it extra spicy and you will not be disappointed. Same goes with the mie goreng (Indonesian fried noodles). Both are flavor-blasted comfort food. The other dishes I've had there have also been solid but a go-to is always the crispy eggplant appetizer. It's a large place so plenty of seating. They do get pretty busy on weekends but I've never had trouble getting a table. Cool vibes, good food, what more do you need! You can see from my photos that I came here with friends once and we ordered a table completely full of nasi goreng and mie goreng. XD read more

I absolutely love the food here! Strong, flavorful dishes. The dishes appear small but are quite filling. The spices infused come out in every bite. The fried tofu, fried rice and noodle dishes would highly recommend. They are our staple dishes. The industrial decor with open ceilings make the space appear open and spacious. However, it creates a space where the noise fills the room. Not necessarily a bad thing, but definitely bustling and gives a lively feel while dining. Staff were friendly. The wait staff seemed very busy managing tables. Service wasn't slow, but definitely felt their restaurant is always at capacity which is a good problem to have! But just expect to have a wait while there. read more

They seated me before my party of 3 was complete which I appreciate and had tables available. All the dishes we ordered were flavorful. The fish was the favorite, next was the salted egg covered tofu cubes and then the green beans. The thai chicken skewer was also better than other places. We skipped the aoup dumplings as my friends said it was not good. The water melon bubble drink was ok, for some reason the bobba keeps hetting stuck in the straw. read more

The Din Tai Fung of Illinois is finally here! My family and I have been chasing the high of Din Tai Fung's soup dumplings for years, but there has always seemed to be an absence of restaurants like this in the Midwest. Thankfully, Phat Phat stepped in to fill that gap. We drove 30 miles for a late lunch around 2:30 p.m. to hopefully beat the crowds. There's a huge parking lot in the back, the building itself is incredibly unique, and the interior is absolutely beautiful. It feels modern while still being warm and inviting. We wanted to try a variety of dishes, so we ordered two baskets of the Shanghai Soup Dumplings, the Enoki Mushroom appetizer, Chicken Fried Rice, Phat Phat Chicken, Nasi Campur, and finished the meal with the Mango Sago. Everything was incredible. The soup dumplings definitely filled the void that Din Tai Fung left behind. Every dish was fresh, perfectly seasoned, and served piping hot. The Mango Sago was the perfect palate cleanser and a refreshing way to end the meal on a hot summer day. The standout for me was the Enoki Mushroom appetizer. That will be a must-order every time we come back. We also have Indonesian family and have visited Bali, so we were excited to try the Nasi Campur. It was spot on. The satay is another must-order in my opinion. Our waiter was kind and attentive, and the rest of the staff were just as welcoming and pleasant. Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and we'll absolutely be back. read more

I came here once maybe 5 years ago. For some reason I forgot why I never went back because it's such a cute place with plenty of seating. Safe to say, I won't go back again. The food was either overly salty or it was tough. The server we had was very friendly but during our time dinning there, we did see a lady walk out I'm not sure if it was from her not getting any service or if she changed her mind. But she seemed mad. read more

We came here for my daughter birthday and the waiter was wonderful. Very professional and attentive. The restaurant is very spacious with an industrial vibe. We got several of the soup dumplings dishes including the imperial bao which including a samples of the various dumplings they served. Our favorite was definitely the black truffle and spicy Szechuan. The popcorn chicken and mushrooms were our kids favorite. It was also super nice of them to include some ice cream for our daughter for her birthday. read more

Solid place - we came here for a work lunch. The food was great overall - I go the stir fried rice noodles and that was good. We also got a few apps - the sichuan wontons are amazing. The space is very airy and has a lot of natural sun which is cute. The mango sago was my favorite dessert here and would recommend that. read more

I made one of those Internet inspired bingo cards to push myself a little to try new things and one of my squares is to try 12 new restaurants (outside of Yelp event privileges). Phat Phat was the first one of the year! I have seen the Imperial Xaio Long Bao on Instagram and was intrigued. I also saw the Chocolate Bao while scoping out the menu online and mentally added it to the list of things I wanted to try. When we got there, we saw the photos of the soup on the menu and thought it would be the perfect addition to the stop. I got the sweet corn soup (I'm trying new things, remember?) and my boyfriend got the wonton soup. I was a little skeptical of the consistency of the sweet corn soup, but it was not strange at all and the perfect thing to eat on a cold weekend. The Imperial Xaio Long Bao came with a lesson on how to eat them fully. I enjoyed every one less the Spicy Szechwan because it had dried shrimp in it and I cannot eat shellfish. My favorite one was the Chicken Curry [pink] with the OG Shanghai [white] a close second. Every single one was delicious, though! The Chocolate Bao were fluffy, decadent, and the perfect ending to our culinary adventure. Props for using imported chocolate over the American stuff, haha. The service was great, our waiter was funny, patient, and asked us some intelligent questions, like, how did we hear about the restaurant? The seating space was beautiful and it looked like there was a 2nd floor for seating, too? The tables were placed resourcefully, but not too close where you were sitting on top of one another. The space was bright and decorated well. I didn't use the bathrooms because I was too busy absorbing everything I definitely look forward to visiting again soon! read more

Had a bit of a mixed visit. Came in with a larger group for early dinner. The restaurant looked nice and was pleasantly decorated. We were seated fairly quickly and the staff was very pleasant and helpful. My wife and I got the Mi Goreng, Dry Chilli Chicken, lychee iced tea and mango sago. The Mi Goreng was good and we enjoyed it a lot. The Dry Chilli Chicken didn't really look like the picture and was just okay. I didn't mind the Lychee Iced Tea but it was basically just Iced Tea with a very small hint of lychee flavor, my wife wasn't a fan. The Mango Sago was disappointing, It was very liquidy and wasn't too refreshing, mango tasted good though. Overall, staff and ambiance are nice. The food was more of a miss than hit unfortunately. read more

This is an updated review as I haven't been back since that original review a few years ago. Came by on a Sunday afternoon for lunch to meet up with a friend who's also been here before. Service as usual was absolutely fantastic. He was so kind and helpful and made recommendations also. He was also very funny. We ordered quite a few dishes as you can tell from the photos and everything was really tasty and delicious Love coming here and trying some new things. This is definitely a must stop. read more

This place was very busy at 5pm but it wasn't a long wait. I had children with me so I think our food got cold and wasn't as good as it could be. However, one of the dishes also didn't seem to be served very hot which took away from the flavor. My son and I liked the egg and corn soup. We also enjoyed the chocolate bao. I like that they have a sample "rainbow" dish of their soup dumplings. It was a great way to try the different dumplings to know what to order more of. It also has a fun rainbow appearance. The chicken fried rice was pretty good. read more

This is such a cute spot, tall ceiling with warm but chic decor, and plenty of easy parking in the lot behind the building. Staff was SO friendly from greeting us, to recommending menu items, to superb attention throughout our meal. That came in handy because the menu is quite expansive and can be confusing with the mix of visuals and line items. The menus we received had gone through quite a bit of wear and tear so at times it was hard to read and navigate. This didn't deter us though, we ended up asking a million questions instead haha. The food was very tasty and everything came out piping hot. They paced it so we could enjoy everything while warm. We got two sets of dumpling, two appetizers, and a larger noodle dish to share between two people. We probably could've ordered 2-3 more dumpling dishes. The dumplings really are the star so I would encourage you to order a variety to sample and try! read more

Location had ample parking. A bit difficult to see from the Main Street and entrance was tough to find for parking lot. Eventually arrived and even with no reservations, we were able to get a table rather quickly. The dining room had clever decor, ample space, and had an inviting atmosphere. The food photos only show a portion of the menu, so look online before going although choices are plenty, there will be discussions about the food. A nice quaint place that you gotta try if you're a local or simply looking for a different flair. read more

From the moment we saw pictures of the noodles, we knew we had to try Phat Phat. We really enjoyed our first visit two weeks ago. We loved it so much, we drove from the city to have it again today. This is such a great restaurant. It's clean, spacious, and busy...and rightfully so. The staff is super nice and they remembered us from the first visit! On our first visit, we had the orange chicken xiao long bao, sichuan wonton, kwetiaw with chicken (asked for spicy) and hongkong mee with chicken. On our second visit, we had the orange chicken xiao long bao, sichuan wonton and two kwetiaw with chicken (spicy again). We had to have the our own kwetiaw because we loved it so much. The wide noodles (looove wide noodles) are perfectly cooked and the savory sauce coats the noodles and chicken just enough to make it balanced and delicious. All the dishes we had were wonderful. We can't wait to go back and try more items...and have all the same things! read more

The restaurant is very well decorated, which makes an amazing environment for a date night with cozy bench seats or quaint tables. It's also a perfect place to go if you want to order many small dishes and share. Each dumping dish comes with 3-4 in steamer baskets making it perfect to go with 2-4 people. I recommend the siew mai, sichuan wonton, and gao zi in the dim sum menu and the enoki mushrooms from the appetizer menu. All of the dishes arrived quickly and stove hot and the experience overall was fantastic. The servers are attentive and checked in with us frequently. read more

Came here for dinner with my cousins. It was busy for a rainy Saturday night. Every table had their conversations & it was loud enough to hear each other talk. I showed up late, but they ordered quite a bit of food. Everyone was hungry so....the camera did not eat first this time unfortunately. We had Shanghai xiao long bao which was not bad. Wish it had a little more broth in it. The golden sheng jian bao was flavorful and I actually enjoyed it. My favorite was the garlic chicken wings! It was nice and crispy and juicy! You can tell it was marinated well. The mie gorreng was also pretty good...but I also love noodle dishes! The phat phat chicken was interesting! It was one of my cousins favorite! I thought it would be like a meatball texture but it had a little crisp to it because of the tempura flour. Another good dish we all enjoyed was the crispy shrimp with Szechuan sauce. Lastly, my cousin insisted that we all get the chocolate baos. Just the perfect amount of chocolate in it! Overall, it was a good experience. There's other dishes I would love to come back and try. read more

Came here on a Saturday afternoon for lunch and it was busy. Fortunately there wasn't a wait and got seated right away. They looked a bit short staffed as we waited a while for the waiter to take our orders. But they were quick with the food. Dishes came out before they brought our drinks! We had the fried hongkong mee with chicken and the kwetiaw with beef. The kwetiaw was made with the flat rice noodles which I loved. The HK mee was ok probably wouldn't get again. Also had an order of the sichuan wontons and the Shanghai xiao long bao, all are very delicious, just wish it came with more per order. Overall the dishes were on the smaller side so if you come hungry, I suggest ordering a few more baos to fill your stomach. read more

Last time I was in town, my mom and I had lunch here. And it was only us two but we ordered for 6 for some reason but that's ok because used we got to take it home and eat it again later. My mom happens to always be cold so she ordered hot tea and soup but we also got fried rice, dumplings and skewers. Our eyes were hungrier than our stomachs. We even ordered dessert bao and they were so good. Fluffy and light and beautiful too. Service was great too - friendly and welcoming. This is a great restaurant and I recommend it. read more

Great food with charming ambiance. We had driven by this place for ages, finally decided to stop in. It was an early Sunday afternoon, so not many folks in the place. I would describe food as a combo of dim sum and pan-Asian, we especially enjoyed the hot & sour soup and the wonton appetizers. Service was attentive but not obtrusive. Will definitely be stopping by again! read more

Awesome soup dumplings with a high quality ingredient menu. Service was attentive. Modern clean atmosphere. Definitely coming here again

Great place to try soup dumplings! The combo platter is the best bet if you want to try a bunch of them and share. Our favorites were the original and the spicy. We also had some satay and some shrimp dumplings that were excellent. Pass on the tofu tots. Without a sauce they are just too pasty and bland. Also pass on the beef balls that were in the noodle soup. I'm not sure if it was liver dumplings but they were really rubbery and gross. Noodles were excellent though so I just took the meat out for my daughter. Mango bao was not their favorite either (I knew they wouldn't like it, but they insisted). Beautiful spot, but very cold. Really friendly and fast service too! read more

I was here on a double date with my cuzzos and we really enjoyed our time here! We arrived around 5pm on a Saturday and the place was already starting to fill up. We were told that items tend to sell out quick so I recommend getting here as early as you can. By 6pm this place was jam packed. Although it was busy our service throughout was consistent and quick. For my drink I tried the lychee margarita. It was refreshing and fruity. I also took a sip of my husband's hibiscus flower cocktail which had mezcal in it. This was also sweet with a hint of smokiness. As far as food we all shared a bunch of items. The portions here are similar to tapas and I recommend ordering 2-3 plates per person. If you're a big fan of sharing food and trying different items this is the place to be. My favorites here were the pork soup dumplings, steamed veggie dumplings, fried tofu and garlic chicken wings. Everything was flavorful and cooked to perfection. This is a spot where I can see myself trying out the entire menu. IT'S THAT GOOD!!! read more

My husband and I have dined here before. We've now returned with our kids. My son has severe sesame allergy and he felt safe eating here. Phat Phat was so accommodating and made sure sesame was completely eliminated in every dish we ordered so my son can enjoy what we ordered. Everything was delicious from the soup dumplings to the green beans and chicken wings, Indonesian noodle dish, and dessert. Our server Danny was attentive and so helpful. We had a wonderful experience and will definitely go back! read more

Wanted to get together with my cousin and she wanted to try Phat Phat. I came here a few weeks ago. This time we came at 5 pm in hopes to try the dishes that ran out last time. Also to get some of the same dishes we tried that I really liked. We arrived at 5pm and we were seated immediately. The server provided us with menus. When ahead returned we ordered our drinks. I decided to try the Sake. She dropped off our drinks and took our food orders. They did run out of the Salt and Pepper Enoki Mushroom but they did have a dish I wanted to try: Salt and Spicy Eggplant. I tried the Crispy Wontons, Crispy Shrimp with Szechwan Sauce. I had some repeat dishes but I will provide reviews on the new dishes. The Crispy Wontons were crispy and filled with shrimp,Seasame, and shallots. They were pretty good. The Salt and Spicy Eggplant had the right amount of salt and were fried perfectly. Lastly, the Crispy Shrimp was cooked perfect and was not over cooked. The sauce was really good. Overall, the food was great as usual. My cousin and her husband loved the food as well! I enjoyed the night catching up and eating! I'm sure we will be back again. read more

Oops we did it again! We enjoyed Phat Phat so we brought friends with us for a repeat visit. We ordered everything we ordered on our previous visit, plus: beef stew, green beans, soup dumplings, phat phat chicken, won tons and chocolate bao. The restaurant was busy but not crowded. Our server was very efficient and our food was brought out fairly quickly. Our friends enjoyed phat phat as much as we did and though we first thought we over ordered--we demolished it all. We are well on our way to becoming phat phat but we couldn't be happier! read more

I had reviewed this fine establishment before, but once again, for whatever reason, my review is no longer listed (even though it was not a negative or bad review). Phat Phat is a good pan Asian restaurant that serves Chinese and Indonesian dishes. They are known for their Baos and Indonesian dishes such as Nasi Goreng and Mie Goreng. In my previous visits, I had their Sheng Jian Bao, Chocolate Bao, Hong Kong Mee Noodles w/ seafood in XO sauce, and Nasi Goreng. On my current visit, we ordered Crispy Fish in Egg Floss, Wok Fired Hong Kong Mee Noodles with Chicken and Vegetables, Spicy Szechuan Xiao Long Bao with pork, shrimp and Szechuan black peppercorn; Golden Sheng Jian Bao with chicken and shrimp, shrimp fried rice, Lychee margarita, and Strawberry Coconut bubble tea. The food arrived in a short time. It looked good and smelled delicious. I enjoyed trying all the dishes we ordered. The flavors of each dish were exquisite. My favorite items were the Spicy Szechuan bao and the crispy fish dish. The Lychee margarita was very good and refreshing. I asked for hot chili oil, which added a nice flavor profile to some of the dishes I had. The food was fresh and cooked well. The service was good and had been in the past well. Their menu has a good variety, and the pricing is reasonable given inflation and all. They also have some drink specials posted by their bar area, which are worth checking out. The decor of the restaurant is nice and inviting. The restaurant was clean, spacious, and well-lit. I definitely recommend checking out Phat Phat when you are in the mood for Asian cuisine. read more
