We came here for a quick lunch stop on a roadtrip and we are glad we did! The space is bright with various seating options and it was pretty crowded during the lunch hour on a Monday. The service was quick and they helped us figure out what to order, which was nice. The papaya salad was very tasty, and we were able to choose between Thai style and Lao style which was nice to have the option. We chose Lao style, which was less sweet, and we all really enjoyed it. The shrimp tom kha soup was extremely flavorful and good, but a little too salty, so it was hard to finish the whole thing. The rest of the dishes we shared (green curry and pad see ew) were both cooked well and we have no complaints. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a Thai spot in the area. read more

Stopped in while "on the job" What a nice surprise. The dining area was inviting and staff was so warm and welcoming. I am not a regular at Thai food so I asked Maria for her recommendation and with the both of our thoughts I decided on the Kow Pad Pineapple. What a nice surprise. Lightly spicy and very tasty. I also had them put shrimp in it. To bad I reside in Chicago because I would definitely make sisters a regular spot. But for now it will have to be a stop while I'm on the road working. Thanks guys great meal Chicago Bob read more

I've been coming to Sisters Thai Cafe since they first opened downtown, and it's consistently been my go-to spot. The atmosphere is inviting, the service is top-notch, and the Thai food is absolutely fantastic--perfect for a business lunch or a cozy dinner with friends and family. The owner, Chintana, and her husband always make you feel genuinely welcomed. Their friendliness and appreciation for their guests truly set the tone for the whole experience. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but my personal favorites are the wings, Seafood Pho, and Crispy Chicken. And if you're into wine, every selection I've tried has been excellent. read more

Ambiance and outdoor patio area in the summer was beautiful. Easy to host a 6-person family or group of friends at one of the round tables. Servers were very kind and responsive throughout the meal and provided helpful suggestions in reference to the menu. Food quality was very good for such a busy restaurant. read more

The orange chicken is incredible! Service is excellent and even carry out is delicious. A wonderful addition to downtown Rockford

Sisters Thai Cafe is FANTASTIC!! While driving through Rockford Illinois, we decided to grab some lunch. We didn't know what we were in the mood for or what downtown Rockford had to offer. We saw their cute storefront and wondered in. Who knew we would find delicious, authentic Thai cuisine in this small town in the mid-west. But we did! With every bite, we kept saying how good everything was. The server told us the owner was in the kitchen at that very moment. She really knows what she is doing and knows how to make her customers happy. When we walked into this small storefront business, we were pleasantly surprised by the warm yet urban atmosphere. Cool artwork and brick walls created the perfect backdrop for a delicious meal. Our server was a great guy who was so helpful and pleasant. He checked on us often, even though there was a busy lunch crowd. He made a great meal even better. Hey Rockford, you are lucky to have the gem in your town! read more

These guys have the best fresh food with a lovely unique taste & the prices are very vey affordable

We were pleased to get such authentic Thai food. One of us loves spicy (5), and one likes less spicy (1). The Tom Kha had such a fresh taste with the lemongrass and mushrooms. He had Pad Thai, and I had the Curry Noodles with a yellow curry sauce and coconut milk, yum yum. Friends happened to be there, so we all joined together, talking with the owner like we were in someone's home. read more

I ate here by myself for a late dinner. I was told by a friend that it was good and since I like Thai restaurants, I wanted to give it a shot. The thing is, almost all Thai places I've been to serves Pho, which is actually a Vietnamese dish. But I always bounce between Pad Thai, random curries, and pho. Pho is usually my go to because I love noodle soups and it's the most comforting to me. The pho at Sisters Thai Cafe is pretty darn good. Not as good as the ones I've had in Nashville (where I'm from) but it hits the spot. I ordered beef pho with brisket (basically extra meat). The broth was intense, flavorful, and actually a extra oily from the meat, which I actually prefer. It makes for a rich, filling soup. The sprouts, basil, cilantro, and lime added a fresh and light characteristic that countered the heaviness from the meat and broth. You can never go wrong with pho and Sisters Thai Cafe has pho that's on par with other Thai restaurants I've been to. read more

What a great spot for downtown Rockford. This used to be a place called Bamboo and I was so sad when they closed down, but honestly I like it even better as Sisters. Do yourself a favor and even if you've never heard of it before, get the pad see lew! (Some places call it pad see ew, not sure if there's a difference) By far our favorite thing on the menu. It's the perfect mix of sweet and savory. Also some spring rolls as an appetizer beforehand never hurts either. Other meals we've tried and liked have been the pad Thai, orange chicken, curry, and if you like spicy, the Pad Kee Mao. They have a full bar with drink specials they change up every now and then. Like right now, I believe it's half off wine on Wednesdays. They also have video slots in the back. read more

Sisters Thai Cafe I went into Sisters Thai Cafe and was seated. We sat for over 15 minutes myself and my son and daughter in law watched the waitress clean a table then seat a white couple. The waitress then asked them for drinks brought it back to the table and took their order never even looked our way. We continued to wait but no service was provided. I'm greatly disappointed and won't ever go back! Shame on you @Sisters Thai Cafe read more

this restaurant has nice ambiance seating. the food however I wasn't impressed with the egg rolls were super oily and not drained the tofu with peanut sauce was decent. ordered chicken cashew the sauce was like water not much flavor. the tofu fried rice with egg tasted like burnt egg not very appetizing at all. the server offered to get another dish spicy noodle that was a little better at least. overall I wouldn't recommend eating here I have had way better thai than this. read more

Love the food and staff here. Our go-tos are Pad Kee Mao, Panaeng Curry, Basil Chicken, Nam Kow and of course their Thai Spring Rolls! Chicken Pho is our favorite winter fare. Yum! Great patio. Wine Wednesday specials. Love it! read more

The worst Thai I've ever had. The pad Thai were so flavorless, the noodles were basically white. It had that weird tomato taste and zero spice. I grew up in cali and I've tasted many authentic Thai. I asked the waiter on a scale of 1 to 10 how spicy is it and she says zero! I've never been at a Thai restaurant that says zero that's crazy. My boyfriend got I think the drunken noodles I think and even he agreed that it was very disappointing as well. read more

Heard about this from a friend. We went and had a wonderful dinner. We had Penang, yellow curry, pad Thai, and orange chicken, the appetizer sampler. The shrimp appetizer was so flavorful it was the best I have had. My fri d thought the spring roll was the best she has had. The yellow curry was almost like my homemade one very good. The pad Thai had good notes nice flavor and even good as leftovers. We had enough food we ordered 4 meals and an appetizer for 3 people. And no one finished anything. Go check it out. You will not be disappointed. They also had outdoor seats. read more

Let's start with the good.... The place is nice inside. Very trendy, exposed brick, cool downtown business. Now the bad.... The food sucked. The service was just as bad. I'm used to excellent Thai food. (Thara Thai in Champaign is AMAZING) Sisters is the second or third Thai place in Rockford that I tried and it was just awful. Nobody compares to the level of Thai that I'm used to eating. The food scene in Rockford sucks and I'm more and more convinced of that every time I dine out here in Rockford. It's just horrible. I never realized how good I had it in Champaign. Sisters Thai came out warm at best and it just wasn't good Thai. They're also too proud of the food! Too expensive for what you get and the service was horrendous . If this is the best Rockford has for Thai, I give up! Wouldn't go back, even if it were free! read more

Very good Thai food. Gets really during lunch. Get there early. I think the curry dishes are very good. The chicken salad is execptional..sercice is on point. I love this place read more

The food was fresh & flavorful! The service was amazing! It was very busy but the food didn't take long at all.

I only gave this spot 4 stars because it is a bit pricey for the servings the give. Other than that the food is delicious. We have gone here several times and ordered different items, their Pho broth is good. Service was great, their servers/waitresses were friendly and attentive. We have never had to ask for a refill or more water. Amazing staff, they even apologize for the "long wait" due to a rush of people who came in. It wasn't even long. Definitely will be coming back! read more

I have been wanting to try this place for a while and finally got to have dinner here last night. There were definitely a lot of options for entrees. I don't eat Thai food much but looking at their Facebook page helped me see what the dishes looked like so I could visualize what I was getting. My boyfriend and I shared a sampler platter for an appetizer. I really enjoyed everything that was on there but especially the crab Rangoon. That was my favorite. For entrees I decided on the Pad Mee with shrimp and my boyfriend got the Pad Thai with shrimp. They were very generous portions for each of our dinners. I really enjoyed my dinner and I can't wait to go back and try more menu items. read more

We walk in and the bartender seats us while also forgetting to get menus. We waited 5 minutes before getting the menus and apparently had to order water at the same time. (She asked us what else we wanted to drink but we had just literally gotten our menus..) fast forward we ordered the pot sticker app and chicken satay app to start. The Satay chicken was cooked decently and was quite tender but lacked any flavor. The sauce that came with it had a very light flavor.. the whole dish tasted like the essence of fried chicken. Interesting choice Chef. The pot stickers were pot stickers. For dinner, My wife got the Chicken teriyaki stir-fry with a bowl of white rice. When our waitress brought the rice it looked like it had been sitting in the rice pot for a week with all the brown spots and over-hardened pieces of rice.. The chicken was dry but the worst part was the sauce. Bland and void of any personality. Always too sweet or too watery at any given point. At least they're consistent with that. Thanks again chef. I ordered the beef pad Thai. The beef looked like it had been sitting in a liquid for some time before being soaked up with a napkin when served. The vegetables looked so rushed. All the pieces were cut so thick and the noodles were practically melted together. They need to take the Thai out of their name. It's insulting. Try 'Sisters Tried cafe'. I was already really annoyed at this point. My wife wanted something sweet so we got the Lava Cake cause we overheard the people next to us saying it was so good. We got the cake. When we dug in, the first thing I noticed was the empty dryness of the cake. Every single lava cake I've ever had has always been moist or at least textured. The cake came with vanilla ice cream that was super hard. But the WORST part was when we both looked at each other and realized there wasn't any chocolate sauce in the LAVA CAKE. You guys are a disgrace masked with a weird Indiana jones-chipotle ambiance. If you're going to service noodles and stir-fry, please go back to the basics and perfect the basics. We will not be dining here again. Thanks for nothing. ($75 meal + tip) read more

The food is tasty and fresh. Servers are responsive. Good options for adult beverages. The ambiance is awesome. Vegan options are available.

Food was satisfactory. The portion size was about right. Service was excellent. Went at noon on a Friday there was plenty of seating.

Cute little bar and restaurant. Staff is very friendly. Chicken Satay was very good. The Green Curry could have used a little more spice but came out piping hot (molten lava). It was really good. Mango sticky rice was a really refreshing dessert. Will definitely return. read more

Great ambience, decent service and decent food. The food is ambiguous Asian fusion; don't come here expecting Thai flavors.
