    Shrimp pad Thai!
    Denisha B.

    My friend and I decided to do a Thai takeout night and wanted to support a local spot so we decided to order here. I've been here a couple of times. My first couple times were stellar when they first opened and my latest time not so great. I decided to give it another try so We ordered the panang curry and massamum curry. We did end up waiting a very long time for delivery but that's ok because sometimes you have to wait for good food. While the curry in flavor was delicious, it was incredibly thin like soup! On top of it, they do not give you much rice at all. Only a scoop of rice comes with a big container of curry, which makes no sense. Rice is super cheap--give the people more rice to enjoy with their meal ya'll. I won't be back. Too many good Thai spots to support.

    R Haan Thai is a tiny restaurant on Lincoln Ave just south of Peterson Ave. How small is tiny you may ask? Then again you may not ask but I'm going to tell you anyway. There are 10 seats and I reserved 5 of them. Shortly after we came in a party of 4 came in and took 4 more seats. Just after that 2 guys came in but unfortunately there was only one seat left. They opted to eat outside as they have a small seating area on the sidewalk in front. We ordered the following dishes to split among our table. * We started w/Chicken satay w/peanut sauce. This was perfect an order of 5 pieces). This also came w/a small dish of cucumbers & red peppers in vinegar * 2 large orders of Tom Kha soup which was also enough for 5 people. This was a little too sweet for my taste preference. * Nam Tok Salad- Grilled beef w/red onions, green onions, roasted rice powder, Thai chili & spicy lime dressing served nicely spiced and seasoned served over lettuce leaves. * Crispy Pork Belly - Tasty but I've been spoiled by the Filipino Crispy Pata (fried pork knuckle) * Ground Chicken w/Thai Basil, onions, carrots & red peppers. * Pad Thai - Thai Noodles w/bean sprouts, egg, green onions, ground peanuts, cabbage, lime & carrots. This was good but too sweet for my taste. The service was good but the one woman was the Jack of all trades & was kept busy running between the tables & kitchen. Nice restaurant overall but we weren't overly impressed by the food. It was good but nothing that really stood out for us. (Sorry to say). I'm not sure why it's rated 4 1/2 stars but food is very subjective to people's personal tastes

    Chicken Pad Thai

    In the middle of the workday, I was haunted by a craving for Thai food. Specifically, noodles. Noodles are always a comfort food to me & it's been forever since I've ordered Thai. Of course, I find myself on DoorDash, while cross-referencing Yelp. (Yes, this is how I make my delivery decisions & it works out!) I came across R Haan Thai. Seemed to check off all the boxes - nearby, good looking food pics, good reviews. Workload picked up & before you know it, the day was over but I needed to order my food. Chicken Pad Thai it is, not spicy, no peanuts, & a coke. Somehow, DoorDash didn't display my "special instructions" so in a panic, I called the resto. The gentleman who answered the phone was very polite & checked my food. He assured it me it was fine. Food eventually arrives, it's glorious & there I am, shamelessly stuffing my face. Noodles were perfect, plenty of chicken, all complimented with bean sprouts, egg, a bit of cabbage & carrot. Feeling full & thankful, the phone rings. It's the restaurant & the same man I spoke to earlier on the other end. He asked if I got the pad Thai & if was it okay. SIR - it was more than okay. It was amazing. Seriously thank you for even thinking of asking. It's a delivery review sure, but R Haan Thai has a new fan & I'm excited to try other dishes. Thank you!

    This is my jam I work literally a few blocks from here. I really love their lunch specials. They have fire entrées, love the Penang curry, Pad Thai, is my go to, but I really love the basal fried rice w chicken or shrimp and extra basil leaves. Don't ask me about the beef. I've never had it but I'm sure that is good here too. Very solid locally owned and operated business. People are always super friendly here. For my birthday last month I made sure that I ordered catering and it was so delicious everyone loved it. You can't go wrong with this place. Only complaint is there close on Sunday and I usually love my Thai food on Sunday.

    This is the place to eat in Chicago in my opinion, and has made every other restaurant look bad…read more it's the absolute best meal in the city, at a great price, with a super awesome staff. I bring everyone i know here at some point. Only negative thing to say is that i no longer feel anything about anywhere else that I eat. Im okay with that though, because in my opinion this is how you run a restaurant. They are always full, but it is always worth the wait!

    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!

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.

I tried the biang biang noodles, but which was a bit bibimbap-esque with the tomato and egg, black bean pork, braised beef, and minced sauce. This was awesome as I love each ingredient individually but normally can't choose between which noodle bow I want. Mixed together, this creates a heavenly flavor of sweet, sour, and umami. The biang biang noodles were thick, chewy and bouncy, and like wider longer belts. The texture was actually so addicting and I devoured my bowl almost instantly. My friend got the Szechuan spicy vermicelli pot with beef, but this needed a bit more flavor and spice. Adding vinegar helped! Our server was super nice and friendly and helped us pack all our leftovers too.

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.
