Siam siam is a great thai place. I come here often for lunch. Parking is easy as its situated in a strip mall. Walking its very open with lots of seating. Good for larger parties. It's a bit dated so don't expect a modern spot. The lunch special is a great deal. Portions are pretty big and the food is delicious. The lunch special comes with an appetizer and a small soup, usually a light chicken rice or sweet and sour. Both are great. My go to is the Spicy Basil Fried Rice and they have a number of spice levels to pick from, I usually go for medium spice. The staff is very accommodating. Willing to split bills for larger parties and customize meals. If there is one thing I dislike is that sometime the service is slow, and it takes a while to get a check so don't be afraid to just walk up to the cash register and pay. read more

Did a carry out weekday lunch from here and it was a decent deal. For $10.50 you had plenty of entree choices along with a soup of the day and a piece of a fried chicken dumpling. We got two dishes the pad see ew and the drunken noodle. The drunken noodle came only spicy so ordered mild spice. Both dishes were decent sized and pretty tasty, the mild definitely has a bit of a kick to it. We did a walk in carry out order and it was done in about 10mins. The service was just okay, they sort of seemed a bit annoyed at the questions. And when we had moved a chair to sit on they mentioned to put it back before leaving, in a more negative tone than positive. read more

It's always so good. Great pad Thai, great drunken noodle, and green curry! The prices are fair too!! If you're in the area, get Siam Siam's pad Thai! read more

Siam Siam is a wonderful place for authentic Thai flavors. Their papaya salad is incredibly fresh, perfectly balanced with just the right mix of tangy, spicy, and savory notes. You can always modify spice levels too! The curries are rich, aromatic, and full of depth, with generous portions and beautifully cooked ingredients. Everything tastes homemade and comforting, and the service is friendly and welcoming. A must-visit spot for anyone craving great Thai food! It's great for both carry out or dining in. The restaurant is cozy and comfortable! read more

This place has the best Thai food in the northwest suburbs. The pad Thai chicken is out of this world, the five star chicken is delicious, crab. Rangoon is a delight and the hot and sour soup is dynamite. If you're in for a little bit more spice, try the Penang curry chicken - so good. * pro tip on the curry chicken, they give you a lot of sauce and a fair amount of chicken, but you could really stretch out that sauce if you make some of your own chicken in a crockpot and add it to the sauce. read more

Excellent food. Good service. They serve a nice variety of dishes. My favorite is the lemon chicken.

We have been ordering lunches for our group of nine or ten from this location for years, And while the food is solid, the staff always complain about having to make up our orders so we know whose is whose. This past Friday, they told us they would no longer make any effort to identify the orders. Marking numbers 1 to 10 on the orders does not seem like an ordeal, but apparently it is. Unfortunately, it looks like our run of ordering from these guys is ending. read more

This has been our go-to Thai food place for as long as we could remember. Family owned, but well kept for decades. They have the best pad thai in my opinion, Pad Thai-- not too intense on the sour flavor, it's more sweet tomato-like, but also very nutty but not overpowering. I've had both chicken and tofu, i think I'm more in a tofu phase now. They give generous amount. I also love they they put fresh mung bean sprout for the crunch and refreshing feel. Pad kee mao (Drunken Noodle)-- this is one of our go-to dish anywhere thai. Typically good Thai places make this dish super spicy, so we preemptively requested mild. This was also very flavorful and not too spicy. I like they they leave the tomato in bigger chunks so it doesn't disintegrate. we have had chicken and beef, I think I prefer beef. Chicken typically went well with pad Thai. Lad nar-- we have always gotten beef with this one, and this is one of the few non-spicy ones our kids can eat. We love how well the wide rice noodles taste against the sweet sauce. The rice noodles is cooked slightly crispy so when it is soaked in the sauce it doesn't fall apart. Fish cake-- we have been pretty addicted to the fish cakes here, it's super flavorful, according my daughter it's like sweet and sour (from the dipping sauce which has fresh cucumber cuts) and savory and spicy all in one. Siam siam offers really high quality and good quantity of food. Overall I think it's of really good value. Bonus is that it opens on Sunday which is when many Asian restaurants are closed. read more

Place is nice on the inside and super clean. I thought the food was good and the portions were great. Very attentive service without being overbearing. I had the Panang Curry lunch, which ended up coming with a side of soup and a rangoon-like thing. Was very affordable and would come again! read more

Siam Siam - Panang Curry - Thai Near Me - Buffalo Grove, Illinois

Anyone who wouldn't rate SIAM SIAM'S food five stars should be ignored. The best THAI cuisine in the North suburbs.

Order lunch today and was kind of disappointed. I got basil fried rice and asked for it to be spicy. I don't think it was. I wasn't a fan of the chicken or this kind of rice. It's usually my favorite dish but this place was just not to my liking. Although I did order and my food was ready quickly before even the mentioned time. I got soup and a Rangoon with my order. I wasn't a fan of the soup, lacked flavor. I don't think I'll be back. read more

Food is always amazing. Been going here for years and never had a bad meal. Often take out of town guests here & they love it & request to come back here on their next visit. read more

Got take out while at a convention nearby, and everything was great. My order was ready on-time, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The interior is nice and clean, and next time I will eat in the restaurant itself. I had the Thai basil fried rice with chicken, and it was great. I asked for medium Thai/spicy American, and it was perfect. No complaints at all. read more

Stopped in for lunch. I had the Drunken Noodle with Chicken. It was outstanding! Plenty of heat to go with an excellent taste and fresh vegetable. The meal comes with hot and sour soup which was fair and a Rangoon which was tasty. I'll be back! read more

My favorite Thai restaurant in the Northwest burbs so far. I've only gotten takeout, but the interior looks very welcoming and cozy. The food is great! Prices are reasonable and portions are big. My shrimp pad see ewe had a lot of shrimp in it! The panang curry was in a large container. Nice ratio of veggies to meat, nothing dry, everything flavorful. read more

Yum! I ordered a lunch special online and it was ready for pickup when I arrived 5-10 minutes early. The special comes with a large entree (enough for two meals or one massive one), a cup of soup and a appetizer. The chicken pad Thai was delicious, and the soup was very hearty -- it contained lots of crunchy veggies. The appetizer wasn't particularly memorable (as I'm writing this a few days later, I have no idea what it was), but it was a nice addition to the meal. The service was fast and friendly and the food was very reasonably priced for the quantity and quality. Looking forward to trying additional items here! read more

Siam Siam - 1. Pad Thai Lunch - Thai Near Me - Buffalo Grove, Illinois

Since the new owners.. the food is tasteless inconsistent portions and flavors. They use the old recipes and they are not anywhere near what they used to be. Don't even try to return a dish or tell them that is not good. They literally told us don't come back because of the horrific fried rice they gave us. You will never get the same suit served you the same way ever. The inconsistencies of portions of flavors are unbelievable. There isn't a comfortable place to sit in the entire restaurant. The employees openly eat and messy disgusting in the back of the restaurant all day long. I don't care what time of day you go you'll see three to six people eating back there messy and stinky and disgusting. Extremely bad service with terrible attitudes. No two people are the same every time you go and try and eat into the restaurant. We knew the chef Dana for many many years and supposedly she's back. But the dishes or whoever is cooked back there is not the same. They do a not allow you to comment or return or even ask for anything. They don't even give you place settings you have to ask for everything. A cup of tea is just a cup and water no spoon nothing. The portions are half the size they used to be and the ingredients. Good luck. It's freezing cold in there all the time and in the evening it's pitch dark and they real high on the parking lot light. They can't even turn on the lights at night. The decor the whole atmosphere in the attitudes are something I've never ever seen. Totally unwelcoming and they could care less about their service or guests. I don't know how many times we kept going back for punishment and this is definitely never go near the place again. I can't even see them staying in business anymore. The one Chef left and started her own Thai restaurant in Buffalo Grove. Her name is Katie. The new owners are the worst. read more

We just enjoyed lunch at Siam Siam and will definitely be back. Our hunt for good Thai food has been disappointing so far, so we were pleasantly surprised to find this place in an unassuming strip mall. It is adjacent from the strip mall that Rivaj is located in, which is another favorite of ours. I had the unique opportunity during my studies to live in Thailand for about half a year. Once you get exposed to Thai food, you are constantly in search of those bright, balanced flavors that make it so unforgettable. With that in mind, I applaud this place for keeping authenticity in their food while still making obvious adjustments for the western palate. Papaya salad - this is the best papaya salad we have had outside of the city. Loved the abundance of whole peanuts (as well as some crushed ones) and the depth of flavor in the fish sauce. Definitely recommend this! Pad Thai (with Tofu) - I have had stellar pad Thai in the street markets throughout Thailand, so it is hard to find one here that compares. This version was a pretty good contender. The sweetness hits you first, with a hint on spice (we ordered ours medium). I worried it might be a bit too sweet, but contrasted against the tangy papaya salad, it was pretty good. I would definitely order again. Thai Beef Noodle Soup - if you have been to Thailand, you'll know there are few things better than the noodle soup stands. The broth is like a warm hug, and you crave it even on hot days. Siam's beef noodle soup was all the right balance of flavors in a bowl big enough to share. It is not Pho, but has similar characteristics to it. Both my husband and I were not as keen on the beef though, it was a little chewy, but the broth and noodles were good. Basil Fried Rice (with seafood) - the amount of seafood in this dish was impressive, huge ringlets of soft squid, shrimp, scallops (smaller ones), and fake crab (which I can live without) were perfectly cooked in flavorful rice, basil, and a prominent fish sauce base. My husband really enjoyed this - I was too full to try it but will enjoy the leftovers. So pleased to know there is a good Thai place outside of the city. Thank you for giving me a little walk down my Thai memory lane with these dishes. We will definitely be back to try more!! read more

This is my go-to Thai restaurant in the area. They are excellent for carry-out. Very quick, delicious food and I've never had an issue with them forgetting anything or losing anything. Their in-restaurant service is also great. The place is big and food comes quickly. Sitting in the booths is very pleasant for a couple people together, but I've also brought my family and in-laws and they handled that well. read more

Red Curry Tom Kha Soup Thai Egg Rolls Just moved to the area and this will be my go-to for Thai food. Everything was great. Ordered for pick up and food was ready at their given time. The people working were friendly and kind. Prices are great even for this economic recession. 10/10 read more

Ordered for lunch from Siam Siam. The lunch specials are a terrific deal! You get an entrée, a soup, and a single appetizer piece (I think it was a crab rangoon). We don't like a lot of spice, and they were able to accommodate our requests. We ordered the pad thai and the pad see ew. Both were good, and the portions were large. The beef was a little tough for both dishes, so next time we might try the shrimp or tofu. But you get so much food! We have enough for lunch tomorrow too! I also ordered an extra soup - Tom Kha Gai soup. It was a perfect blend of mildly sweet (coconut) and savory. I could have made a meal from the soup alone! read more

Ordered carry out that never arrived. When we called multiple times in the 45 minutes that they were late, we were told the driver left 10 minutes ago (each time we called). We tried to talk to a manager. We're told "I'm just a waitress. The manage isn't here. We are very busy." If they are busy, they shouldn't under estimate delivery times. We then felt that they gave us a hard time about a refund. We will wait a few days and check our statement. Meanwhile, as a diabetic and former regular customer, this is unacceptable. Not the first time there were delivery and charge issues. The food is excellent, but the delivery service (from the restaurant, not Uber eats). read more

This Pad Thai was terrible! Even worse - My mom who is visiting from Italy tried it for the first time and was like " These are the worse noodles/ dish I've ever had .. Pad Thai is my son's favorite dish and even he was like " Mom; it's really terrible and refused to finish the plate " 50 $ wasted. I will be contacting them to get my money back . On top of that my son's stomach started hurting right after. Our local Thai place in Highland Park was closed when we finally decided to get Thai ; and this place was really a huge disappointment. We did order 25 minutes before they stopped taking orders that night but that being said that was not an excuse for them to give us the left overs which felt like it was just slopped together with what they had left. The Pad Thai was missing several signature ingredients such as lime and cucumber. You try to be safe and order take out and this is what you get. If you cannot take the time to provide quality; then you need to close earlier or not offer that meal period!!.. read more

Not for me. I ordered a black pepper pork. It was dry, had no flavor at all. Box as 75% filled with cucumber, tomatoes and lettuce and 25% with protein that was ordered. There are other Thai places that are much better than this. The two star that I gave is for good behavior from the person who took my order. read more

Ordered takeout from here the other day (Pad Thai and Pad-See-Ewe with chicken). Food was ready quickly and order was correct, pricing was reasonable. Only thing I would add is more sauce, as the food was a hint dry when we got it. Would order from here again. read more

Ordered dinner for pick up. The food was delicious and quick! I will definitely be coming back!

I've ordered from this literally dozens of times and I still get surprised with how good the flavors are. I've tried multiple curry dishes, multiple noodle dishes, a few rice dishes, and a few different appetizers. Everything I've tried is good however their curries is what makes this place special. When you order one, take a deep inhale of the mouthwatering aroma first before touching dive in. Each curry has its own unique mix of herbs and spices which hit your nose in the most pleasant way. I cannot stress enough how well their use of aromatics play into the curry dishes. As good as the curry dishes smell, they taste even better. It feels like getting punched with flavor. Don't be afraid to go a level past of your normal spice tolerance either. Thai food is supposed to be spicy and you're honestly not giving the food a proper chance if you're not going to go for the spicy option. This food will heal your soul!!! read more

Fresh food, great taste, good service. Thanks for a nice experience. Would recommend to others.

So disappointed. Have a really bad cold and really wanted some hot and sour soup (from orders long ago, I recall it being really good.) Well, what I got, although very tasty, was not hot and sour soup. It had lots chicken with vegetables. No hot/sour flavor. AND the dish with pan fried egg noodles did not have noodles that were egg OR pan fried. Just went to eat it for lunch. Missing pesos, bean sprouts, muszhrooms, water chestnuts. Lots of napa and bamboo shoots. What the heck???? I picked it up on my way home from the suburbs so I I no desire to drive 30 minutes back to return it. What a waste. No quality control. Two strikes on one order. They're out. So disappointed. read more

Always best food. Wife's favorite Thai place. Very accommodating, always make changes to make real vegetarian food.

We have now ordered from Siam Siam multiple times because the food is delicious and the portion sizes are so large. We can get multiple meals from one order. We take advantage of easy online ordering and also their delivery services. Additionally, because I'm gluten free, I called them to discuss it. They told me they could make almost anything gluten free. They said when ordering online, put "gluten free" in the comment box for the item(s) you want gluten free. I've now eaten Pad Thai with chicken, Massamun curry, panning curry, and pad see ewe with chicken. Everything was hot and yummy. Highly recommend! It's becoming a staple here at our home. read more
