This is just for a review on a take out order for my Panang Curry with shrimp. I found it to be slightly overpriced for what I got to be quite honest, but the flavor, spice, and warmth was great. I do feel like the texture was a bit to watered down for me though. In general, it's a bit thicker of a curry soup, but this one was runny. I still really liked the taste though, and my friend said normally when he orders from her that it isn't so runny, so maybe it was just an off day. I really want to try their pad kee mao though! read more

Wow this is one of those spots that makes me so happy to live in Chicago and to live, in general. A few bites of the food and we had the biggest smile on our faces. The food here is a little bit fusion but still has very authentic Thai flavors. We gotten son's eggs and the curry one. Prices are reasonable considering how much food you get. Drinks are quite good too. The patio was wonderful and not crowded at all especially compared to all the busy spots on the street. I absolutely can't wait to come back! read more

This unassuming Thai restaurant nestled into wicker park might be easy to pass by but I'd recommend giving it a try. Especially if you want a nice patio, fantastic service, and a meal that won't make you feel so bloated you can't enjoy the rest of your day/evening. The drinks are good. The menu is small but well executed. You truly can't go wrong. Luckily I live close so I've been through a few times. The pad Thai is great. I enjoy the salads as well which are larger than expected. This weekend it was the beef salad. read more

We ordered takeout. Service was on time and organized they spaced out each takeout order so it was ready for when you got there. We got the following Pepper Steak: this came with a side of white rice. The pepper cake with sautéed onions, pepper, corn, and carrots. I would have been better if it was a little more spicier. Glass noodles: these were thin noodles with carrots, onions and green beans. This was okay. I ordered this before and it was better I think this was just missing some spice. Garlic basil fried rice: this tasted like your typical chicken basil fried rice. The chicken was cooked well. Overall, this needed more flavor and spice added to all three dishes. read more

Silli Kori | Thai - Pepper Steak Entree, glass noodles, basil fried rice - Thai Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Incredible spot! Stopped here for lunch - they have wonderful specials! Went with the beef Pad Thai with a side of Crab Rangoon! When I came to pick it up, they said it wasn't ready yet (despite it saying it was on the app), but it only took ~10 minutes for the order to come out. The staff was very friendly and accommodating - was given a Thai iced tea while I waited which was very kind! Will definitely be back to sit down as the interior was well decorated, a very nice vibe! This was the best Pad Thai I have found in Chicago, and the crab Rangoon was equally as impressive. Check out their lunch specials! read more

Yellow curry & basil fried rice were amazing. Service was awesome & quick. Loved the ambiance of the restaurant as well- pretty brick interior coated in murals with a cool ceiling. try it! read more

I've eaten at many different places throughout Chicago and Silli Kori has to be some of the best Thai food I have ever eaten before. I often find myself ordering Thai just because I love the cuisine and over the last 6 years I've tried many of the Thai restaurants in the city. Sure, there are Thai restaurants that are marginally better than Silli Kori, but none that beat it in terms of value. The prices are very fair and reasonable and the food is still amazing. The items I ordered were made to be spicy (and I can handle my spice) and they still were tasty. I highly recommend the pad see ew and the son in law eggs. I loved the ambiance as well, they offer indoor and outdoor seating and play some nice music. The service was also really good! The food came out quickly and the staff was nice. Overall, I highly recommend Silli Kori to anyone that wants excellent Thai food without having to shell out a lot of money. read more

I went here last night for a to go order. The pad Thai was great, but they didn't put any eggs in it at all. I will definitely recommend, but make sure to let them know you want eggs in your order. read more

Silli Kori | Thai - Chicken Pad Thai. They forgot to add eggs but still good - Thai Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Overall thoughts: nice ambiance, the restaurant tho was very cold and we kept our coats on. The dinner menu is much smaller than the lunch menu - I wonder why? But everything is available with tofu as well. They were out of multiple dishes by 7pm which was odd. The food itself was good but not great. Don't know if I would come again but not a bad experience. What we got -- Corn fritter appetizer: kinda odd but wasn't bad? Vegetarian gyoza appetizer: this was very good. Get this! Pad Thai: lotta different meat and tofu options. Note, it comes with an egg across the top which I've never seen but easy to take off. It was good but not particularly great. But pad Thai. read more

Wanted to give another Thai in the area a try (tried Thai Lagoon last time) and Silli Kori impressed me! The Panang Curry Entree Chicken & Brown Rice plus Cucumber Salad side was a perfect meal for two people. The brown rice is fantastic -- I used leftover for an egg & rice breakfast and it was delicious. The panang was the perfect medium spice level as I like HOT and my partner prefers mild. Good mix of peppers & chicken. Takeout order was ready in 20 min and prices seemed pretty far. Looking forward to trying other dishes! read more

We really enjoyed our dinner here! The Crispy Curry Rice Salad can be done with chicken or tofu, and I got chicken. The flavor was delicious, and plentiful with cilantro, which I was happy about, and maybe too much red onion but that is easy to push aside per bite. And it is truly crispy, which pairs perfectly with the fresh lettuce wraps. The Son in Law dish was something I haven't seen on a Thai menu before and was unique. The fried eggs were tasty, and the meat combination with the basil and sweet jasmine rice was perfect. The ambience inside is dim lighting, not too many tables so it feels cozy but everything is spaced fairly well. Staff was wearing masks and gloves during the pandemic when this review was written. read more

Silli Korri was by far one of the best Thai restaurants I've been to. We ordered the Thai tea, pad se eew, and green curry. It's nice how they can make vegetarian substitutions for many of the dishes there. We went there at night, and they served both their lunch and dinner menus to us. I loved how our food had good spice and flavor. Service took a bit longer than we expected, but it might have also been the case that the restaurant was short on staff that night. The tea was refreshing and sweet. The wall paintings and decorations gave the restaurant a very relaxing ambiance. I could definitely see myself coming back here. If you are looking for a place that serves good Thai food at a good price, this is the place for you. As someone who loves spicy food, this place satisfied my palate! read more

Stumbled upon this spot because I was in the area. I love Thai food and I must say this was a great spot! For appetizers, I ordered the chicken and tofu lettuce wraps and chicken gyoza. I was surprised by the lettuce wraps because they didn't use regular lettuce, but Belgian Endive! It was delicious. The sauce that the gyoza was drizzled in was amazing! It was a sweet sauce that was so addicting. For my entree, I got the Soi Khaosan Pad Thai with chicken and tofu. It was unique because the noodles was wrapped in an egg. I made sure to mix everything and wow. 10/10! It was sooo tasty! With COVID-19, they're following the precautions and is very clean. Will definitely come back here again to try their other dishes! read more

We just ordered delivery from Silli Kori, and it was SO GOOD. Delivery took 50 minutes, as quoted. The delivery service we used was Caviar. Silli Kori even called after the delivery was complete to make sure the transaction went well. Very considerate and helpful. We ordered Kori's Favorite Noodle ($12 Chicken, tofu, plenty beansprout, light coconut bean sauce with thin rice noodles-- filling, great texture, the noodles were SO thin that I wished they were replaced with udon noodles) and the Son In Law Eggs ($15 Four fried soft boiled egg halves, spicy basil ground beef, green beans, sweet tamarind sauce with rice-_ FIVE STARS: filling, the tender ground beef was not spicy, the sauce had a honey consistency and a sweet milky taste, would order this again). I would 10/10 come here again. Everything on the menu sounds delicious. The food here = food baby!! read more

Ordered from Silli Kori for delivery and had a good first experience. The lady taking my order otp was patient and cooperative. We ended up ordering a lot of food; many times end up doing that with new places so we can try the different items. All of the food was pretty good. I'd say, I think the spice level was low for me on all of the items. I think in talking to her we went with medium spice, which I found to be quite mild. I did want the eggplant spicy, but it didn't seem like they applied any heat. That is probably my biggest issue with the food. Tom Kha soup, pad kee mao, red curry, basil eggplant, and basil fried rice. I'd say all of them were pretty good. To me, this review is kind of on hold until I try their food properly spiced. My hopes are high after this first try. read more

Got delivery and it was decent but not wouldn't come back. Pad Thai - 3/5. Good texture but the sauce just didn't come together. Son in Law Eggs - 3/5. I found the beef really tasty but my wife ordered the dish and refused to finish the dish. read more

What an adorable little place with great food! The massuman curry was like no other. It comes with beef and it was fork tender. The pad Thai was perfectly cooked and balanced. read more

When I realized this used to be Thai village I got even more excited . I've been out of the Chicago areas for a while and someone recommended Silli Kori. I'm happy to report that it still is as delicious as when it was Thai village . The pad Thai is my go to and it was delicious! read more

Got to try this place for their weekday lunch special and it did not disappoint! I tried the veggie potstickers as the appetizer and veggie pad Thai as the main dish and both were very, very tasty. I will definitely be back! And next time I'll take pictures lol read more

This Thai restaurant is a hidden gem. I've eaten at many Thai places around Chicago and this one is at the top of my list. The food was delicious and spicy. On top of that, the service was incredible. We ordered vegetable gyoza and thought there was meat in it so we opened up a few of the gyoza. Our waiter politely explained to us that there was no meat and the texture that we felt was actually mushroom. She then had all of the gyoza remade for us after we ripped a few apart! Lastly, the ambiance here is great. It's a quiet and dimly lit which is perfect for intimate gathering or date. read more

I consider Sili Kori as my comfort food restaurant. One of the best Pad woon sen that i have tried. The crispy vermicelli rolls is definitely a main stay in my orders. During warm temperatures, the outside dining area is enjoyable. I just hope they do something interesting on one side of the restaurant where the sushi area was. read more

We were looking for a late lunch place on a Friday afternoon for Thai food. We were in the neighborhood shopping and walked over to Silli Kori. Lunch is served until 3:30 and is very reasonable. It includes an appetizer and entree. The menu states one complimentary appetizer, so we ordered an additional appetizer, however with the lunch entree 3 potstickers were included. The potstickers were very good. We also ordered the corn fritters and they were the star of the meal. We never had corn fritters in a Thai restaurant and they were lightly fried, crispy and not not at all heavy. These were so unique and so good. The sauce was sweet and spicy ! I had the Chicken Broccoli and my daughter had Pad Thai. Both portions were generous for a lunch entree. The Chicken Broccoli came with a side of rice. The sauce was a sweet, soy base. The lunch specials were definitely a great deal. THeir lunch menu is very limited, so I would recommend lunch if you want more options. There were very few guests in the restaurant , so service was very good! THe ambiance is minimalistic with small tables with flowers and candles. THey also have a bar that looked well stocked. read more

Big fan of Silli Kori. T and I go there before we stop at Juko Nail salon and enjoy it every time. I can't comment on evening or night service, but at lunch, when it's slow, everybody is kind and attentive. We have both really enjoyed everything we have ordered. T loves and craves the crab Rangoon and spring rolls, and the Panang curry and son in-law egg ( rice bowl) were both excellent. Rice bowl I would order any time without question. They used to have tempura avacado that was sooooooo good. Hoping they bring it back! Anyway, very worth the stop, and we will continue to be part of the lunch crowd! read more

Just OK. I got the Pad See Ew. This is NOT on the menu, but you can still order it. It was not spicy AT ALL. I had to add lots of sriracha to satisfy my taste buds. The cucumber salad was pretty good. The crab rangoon had too much bread for me. They had a pretty efficient COVID take-out process and they had some outdoor seating. Considering there are many Thai restaurants around, I will probably not be back. read more

What a gem! How have not known about this place? Authentic food, great service, fun ambiance, this is my next Thai place to bring in more friends! The lunch menu is a big win win. Most entrees are $8-9, but some are $10-13. It also comes with an appetizer. Check out the menu photo! I'd say come here with your friends for a real food price for a good meal.

Incredible. I was looking for a place to take my family when I was in town, and was excited to try this place after seeing it had one of the best and highest # of reviews with over 300 near 5-star ratings. I've had Thai on the east coast, west coast, and the South, and this was excellent. Full of flavor from the appetizer to the first bite of the Son in Law rice bowl I got. On top of that, generous portions, and beautifully presented. On top of even that, extremely reasonable prices and a lovely ambiance. Not a single left to ask for. read more

One of the best I have been to for Thai in a long time. Food, service and the setting stand out compared to alot of places, especially in this neighborhood, at this price point.

Loved the food here, we ordered Gayoza, tom yum and pad Thai with hot sake. Food wise this place is just amazing but on service side things are very different, our server was impatient. while we were having our meal she came with a check and asked how many boxes we would like? And this was 10mins before their closing time. Also she reminded us twice that it's past 10 and they are closed while we were waiting for Uber. Again great food but just a heads up on the service Not sure if I'll go back, but might get a delivery though read more

Can't complain. Came here for lunch and got the lunch special which is an appetizer with entree- always a sweet deal. Tried the garden salad and cucumber salad- the garden salad has more in it than you think (it's good) and the cucumber salad is basically a baby version of the garden salad (just get the garden salad if you're between the two because you'll get more out of the garden salad). The massaman curry was decent- I found the meat a little dry but the curry was okay for what it was. I enjoyed the son in law eggs- the sauce was flavorful and it was a good ratio of rice to meat. Could have used a little more vegetables though. I think for the lunch special the prices are good and would come back here again to try more. read more

After getting some studying done in Wicker Park, we decided on Thai food and we're so happy we didn't second guess ourselves!! We had the fritters, red curry, and noodle kee maw. All of the food had such great flavor! We were wondering why this place didn't get the traction it deserved! So glad we found this hidden gem. My advice: We requested the dishes to come out one at a time, but ended up getting everything all at once. Please take this into consideration! Our rice got cold and we were running out of space. The drinks and entrees were fantastic but could've been better!! read more

This is our go-to restaurant at work. My son loved this place as well when I brought him over last week. Pad Se Ewe is my favorite. My son likes it too. I have tried their pad Thai and it's not bad. Since they have a lunch special, I always order the cucumber salad and eat it together with my pad Se ewe. Their crab Rangoon is good too. My co-workers like their curry - I have not tried it though - maybe when I go back. Their udon is ok - but I'm not a fan though. Overall service is good. read more

Food was even less than mediocre, there's way better Thai food around this area than this. Don't know why it's rated so highly.

Food was good nothing special. Menu was nice and simple, easy to make a decision.The food didn't have too much flavor just pretty standard. What did leave a bad taste in our mouth was the waitress coming back and asking for more tip, on a lunch special, we left 13% on $10 meal. She didn't just do it to us but to all the tables & made it really uncomfortable for an extra dollar. We gave her the extra tip but won't be going back. read more

The lunch special is NOT a smaller portion which is just great. Ate outside on the patio back in the summer which is cute and the inside is stylish as well.
