I went there specifically for their esaan menu. Ordered nam khao and esaan sausage. Nam Khao was flavorful. She even picked the herbs fresh from her pot. I love it! The esaan sausage was sour, as it should be. My only complaint is the esaan sausage was slightly dryer, but the flavor is all there. I'll be returning because they have the esaan menu. read more

This is a nice little hidden gem. The staff is so friendly and the food is so flavorful. I went with my go to for Thai spots. The pad see ew beef spicy. It was actually spicy which I loved. Sometimes I feel like other places make it a little less spicy so no one complains if it's too hot. This was perfect. I also tried a little of my coworkers basil fried rice with beef spicy and that was also delicious. I don't think you can go wrong ordering anything here if this is how the food is cooked. It seems like a nice little family owned spot that definitely should get more business. Also: the lunch specials are about $12 with an upcharge for other meats. Some of the menu photos on Yelp are out of date. I took new photos to help reflect the current prices. read more

My wife and I decided that we'd try a new Thai restaurant. We used to go to Tub Tim Thai in Skokie, and one Saturday we had gone for dinner and left after not getting menus fifteen minutes after sitting down. This place is even worse I've been standing here for over 20 minutes waiting to give the person a takeout order. If i could charge for my time just waiting it would pay a significant portion of the bill. They need another person out front to help with taking orders and serving it's too much for one person. If I get food some tie this century I'll update my review. read more

We have been going to Sri Siam for a year or two. It is good Thai in the suburbs without the drive to some of our favorites in the city. The food has sour and spice where needed. This is not your normal bland suburban Thai. Some of our regular items are: A08 Tod Mun Pla - more basic but kids love these everywhere YO2 Spicy Chicken Salad - spicy and sour Y10 Larb Salad - we have gotten this several different ways, with chicken, pork, beef feed . Getting with beef was a nice change from the normal way. N02 Pad See Ewe (Chicken) - great, our family non spicy/cool down dish E09 Hot Chilli Basil (Chicken) - great H04 Spicy Catfish - great Today we noticed a Thai menu on our way in, they called this the Sri Siam E-san menu. Menu is only in Thai. Off this menu, we got the Issan sausage and nam kao tod. The issan sausage is great. Be aware that it is spicy, you may not need the peppers provided. It also has vermicelli noodles in it, which I haven't seen prepared this way before but it worked great. Sri Siam is a BYOB restaurant with no corkage fee. If you are in the northern suburbs and looking for good Thai, give Sri Siam a try. read more

I ordered for take out - sweet and sour catfish with sauce on the side - crab Rangoons My first impressions of the catfish were that it looked nicely battered, but it was a small portion for $13. It was more like a basic sweet and sour dish, so I probably should've ordered the spicy catfish to get more authentic Thai flavors. It was pretty decent though. The crab rangoons were pretty disappointing. They were fried well, but only tasted like cream cheese. There were a few pieces of celery, but they did not add any flavor. Overall, I think what I ordered from here was okay. I wouldn't really recommend the crab rangoons just because they didn't have any flavor to them. But if you really like cream cheese, give them a go! read more

Great Thai food. Seafood salad and kao soy were awesome. Many good options on the menu, including desserts. Will be back!

Just outstanding food. We are Thai food junkies and this place is now one of our favorites. In the last two days we had the Pad ke mow, Pad se ew, Holy basil, and something with cashews, along with the chicken satay. The lunch specials are a great deal as you get a choice of soup, along with a choice of an appetizer and then the main course. The portions are more then generous. We will make a point to come here more often, and their pricing is more than reasonable. read more

We saw Sri Siam while stopping by across the street at Cantonese Palace. A quick check on Yelp showed favorable ratings so we saved it and we came back to this part of Morton Grove. We came early so there wasn't anyone around and got a corner table. The service was friendly and quick. Our server wore a mask, which is expected. We also got crab Rangoon for checking in (thank you Yelp)!! The Rangoons were creamy and stuffed. The pad Thai chicken and pad see ewe beef were both very tasty and good. A tad on the sweeter side so you may want some hot sauce to balance things out. There were no left overs so I felt like I over ate - but that's ok from time to time. I would like to come back and try more of their dishes. :) read more

Underrated spot! We live in the area and wanted to try this spot and now we are regulars!! It's definitely not fine dining, but we come here for a casual dinner or lunch with good food and space to have conversation. The service is great, very quick and always attentive and brings us all the little extra we need such as extra hot sauce, chopsticks instead of forks, and extra bowls and plates. I've tried so many things on the menu and I've also ordered before for a small family get together and I have yet to be disappointed! Price point is great, but the food is also great!! See photos for reference. I always like to try something new when I come here, which is very unlike me because I usually like to stick to my favs but they haven't disappointed me yet, so I'm going to keep trying! read more

I usually order from a delivery service and they're usually on-point so feel I can review accurately: Sri Siam is the real deal. From their soups, papaya salad (my personal fav), Massaman curry, Rama (a little watery but delish) and house entrees, they strive to meet your expectations and if they get it wrong, they correct immediately and without issue. Delicious food, great customer service...two thumbs up. read more

I had a free app coupon but I lost it so when I called and asked if I could redeem it the host was very nice and said she'd redeem it for me. Very good hospitality! The food was good as well I got the crab Rangoon, chicken wings, and panang chicken with noodles. The crab Rangoon was pretty good, very crunchy the way I like it! The filling was good as well! I absolutely loved the chicken wings they were so yummy and so flavorful!! I wish I ordered more of the chicken wings but they were pretty big portions! The curry was very good as well. Good portion of the chicken and the curry had a good taste with a slight hint of spice! Overall really happy with my meal! read more

Sri Siam - a tray of food and a drink - Thai Near Me - Morton Grove, Illinois

Well I'm taking advantage of eating out before they close everything again. Sri Siam is an underrated Thai restaurant but it is delicious. Last I dined in was this past July 2020 on my motorcycle. I angry and sad at how state of Illinois is handling this because I think restaurants are taking precautions and yet there's still spikes of covid-19? Doesn't make sense. The news is fake. Our governor and our mayor of Chicago don't know to handle this. so I'm taking advantage of eating at my favorite restaurants before they go back to carry out and ordering to go. There is no freedom here in Illinois despite being part of the USA. While other states like Florida treat this like a less threat. Otherwise great Thai restaurant read more

My favorite Thai place in Chicagoland, by far. Great food. Great prices. Great vibe. Tastes like home cooking. Type of place couples sit next to each other at, to eat off each other's plate. Best Pad Thai, ever. Best holy basil. Best curry, red or green, take your pick. Garlic pepper chicken. Lunch special is a steal! Small place. Never crowded. Always friendly. Our regular server, Tao, is warm and friendly. Great for date night. Intimate. There's nothing not to appreciate. read more

Sri Siam is a cozy little Thai restaurant that hits all the right notes. We went here with our kids and ordered a Pad Thai, Pad Kee Mao (Drunken Noodles) and a Rama Noodle. We also took advantage of the Yelp deal for a free appetizer and got the cucumber salad, which was far more generous than we were expecting. Other than that, we really loaded up on the noodles. Thankfully, they were all done quite well, even though they had totally different flavor profiles - sweet, spicy, and peanut-ty, respectively, though the one commonality between the dishes in general was the sweetness. Toward the end, it started to become difficult to continue eating due to the sweetness. I don't blame them that much, because I don't think they expect most people to eat 2+ dishes, but it did get a bit sticky (literally - while good, the cucumber salad sauce was pretty viscous) and saccharine overall for my tastes. However, the Rama noodles really hit the spot for my peanut craving. I asked for extra sauce, in fact. The Rama noodles were good, if a bit simple. I'm no chef, but I think if I found the noodles, I could legitimately make the dish myself. That said, it was executed well - wide noodles with a good helping of broccoli all lathered with that delicious, smooth Thai peanut sauce. I ended up finishing my daughter's Pad Thai, which I would characterize as average. Hard to describe the Pad Thai as anything other than that if you already know what a Pad Thai is. I liked that they had the lime, peanut crumbles, and shredded carrots as toppings. Well executed, if a tad sweet - I was glad I didn't have to eat all of it. But then, I have a low tolerance for sweet tastes. Finally, the Pad Kee Mao, or Drunken Noodles. They had a nice kick! Again, the noodles themselves were done really well. No complaints there. The spice made me sweat, but it was manageable (and probably a 2 out of 10 on the Thai spice Richter scale). The peppers and other veggies added great texture. I really wanted to order the Kao Soy (under curries) but we had already ordered 3.5 dishes for 2.5 people (me, my daughter, and my wife). Next time! Otherwise, the space was welcoming. I could imagine it becoming crowded pretty easily, since it's a bit small, though we didn't have that problem tonight. The service was actually quite fast! Our dishes were out sooner than I had expected and they handled the bill quickly, too. I thought the dishes were just a *tad* smaller than I would have liked but with 3 dishes coming out to ~$29 before tax and tip, the prices are hard to beat. Overall, we'll definitely be coming back. The only downside is the sweetness and it's possible they can adjust to my taste once I know. Looking forward to trying the Kao Soy! read more

This time I think the food quality was way better! Everything tasted flavorful, but still a bit too sweet for me near the end. The Pad Thai was stretchy and sticky, which I liked, but actually a bit spicy with red pepper flakes, which is good for us adults but couldn't feed to my kiddo sadly. Tom yum was just the right amount of sourness. The fish cakes were not as spicy as i would expect, but can definitely taste the mild spices and flavors, paired with crunchy cool cucumber, it was a great appetizer. Kao Soy was sweet but the curry broth was delicious. They fry their own crunchy strips which they did some extra for our kiddo. Overall my experience this time was way better, but food is still a bit too sweet for my taste, and took a loooong time to arrive. read more

I love Thai food. It's up there in my top 3 Asian cuisines, so I'm always on the lookout for places that can satisfy my addiction. I would give this place more like 3.5 stars. I tried the pad see ewe, combination fried rice, and fried gyoza. I'd skip the gyoza - they tasted like something you can get frozen from the supermarket. Both the pad see ewe and the fried rice were good, but they were just missing something. We thought the flavors didn't have a ton of depth. There was a good portion of proteins in the fried rice - amen. As for the pad see ewe, I prefer it w/ Chinese broccoli, but because of the surcharge, I stuck to just good 'ol regular brocc. You know what made me happy though? They added a tiny cup of sambal oelek to my carryout bag - something the other Thai places I frequent don't do. I love me some sambal. It's the sauce of the gods. read more

I picked up an order to go on a weekday and it was ready within ~25 minutes. While waiting for my order I peeked into the kitchen and was appalled that no one was wearing a mask. The gentleman who rang me up went into the kitchen to help out but it didn't seem like he washed his hands and was handling the food barehanded. Now on to the food...Hubby and I both got the kao soy (egg noodles in curry broth with chicken breast, topped with green onions, shallots, crunchy noodles, fresh lime, and cilantro). I liked that there was plenty of broth but the chicken was dry (it would have been better if chicken thighs were used IMO). We also shared rama noodles (peanut sauce with steamed broccoli. Served with steamed rice and your choice of chicken, vegetable or tofu). The sauce was good but it only covered part of the dish and was not coated evenly as there were noodles that had no sauce. Although I like broccoli most of the dish was broccoli and it would have been nice to have more noodles. The menu mentioned that it comes with a side of rice which we never got (it didn't matter to me since noodle dishes typically don't come with rice) but they shouldn't have advertised that on the menu. It also supposedly comes with chicken, veggies, or tofu but when hubby placed the order he wasn't given that option otherwise we would have opted for chicken. read more

03/23/17 - I drove by Sri Siam yesterday. It's located in Waukegan just north of Dempster Ave. it's a small Thai restaurant located in a little strip mall. After looking at the menu I noticed they had a lunch special for $7.95. The lunch special gives you the option to select from 1 of 9 different dishes, 1 of 4 appetizers and the soup of the day. I ordered the garlic chicken as my main entry. The dish has red & green peppers and of course chicken & garlic. The food was a bit bland for my taste & could have used some Thai chili peppers to spice it up. Also included was the soup of the day which was egg drop soup, basically chicken soup with egg in it & 2 pieces of gyoza which were decent. Overall the food wasn't anything special. The restaurant was a small, but very clean. The waitress was very nice and provided good service, plus she was cute read more

The portions at Sri Siam are huge! Both my friend and I who dined here had a ton left over. Service was super sweet & most of the time prompt. Pineapple Chicken Fried Rice - My buddy let me have his left overs, hurrah! Pretty good with fresh pieces of moist chicken. I'm not a big fried rice person but I found this one to be not overly greasy, fresh veggies in it, not too much soy sauce, just generally a good dish. Tofu Pad See Ewe - Tasty dish with quite a bit of long strips of tofu in it. It couldn't beat the Pad See Ewe at Jaded Thai but it was a solid meal fo sheezey. It's BYOB as most Thai places are and that makes me happy. read more

I suppose my forgiveness meter is about 2 years, as I noticed that I stated I wouldn't be back in 2014. Well, I'm glad I gave Sri another try bc for a string of time, this place was my go to for pad see ewe take out! Do note the portions aren't as big as at other Thai restaurants, but the quality and protein is fresh. Dined in for the first time at lunch this week and couldn't pass up the value of the $8 3-course lunch special, including soup du jour, a choice of appetizer, and entree. Soup was rather bland; on that day, it was a broth with tofu and some green beans with green onion. Potsticker appetizer was ordinary. As for my entree, you guessed it, I got pad see ewe and was pleased with the plumpness of the shrimp I received. Waitress was nice, but she seemed to say yes to all our requests without actually listening or doing anything about it. Case in point: I asked for the Thai iced tea to be split between 2 cups, and she said yes, ok, but just served it to us in one cup... Also, it was requested to have the dishes prepared with less/minimal salt, but there was a good amount of added salt to the entrees, so the request was obviously ignored. read more

This is an ok strip mall Thai place. There are several in this area. The space is smallish and decor a bit outdated. We requested less saltiness on our lunch specials, but they came out the usual salty as well as overly sweet on the pad see ewe dishes. Guess it's the palate of the typical clientele that these little Thai places cater too and it can't be changed. Each of our 3 person party had one of their $7.95 lunch specials, and it's a decent lunch deal. - pad see ewe with shrimp ($2 adder) - pad see ewe with beef ($1 adder) - green curry chicken with rice The lunch special comes with a soup and an appetizer choice of crab rangoon, egg roll, or pot sticker (and we tried one of each). The place became totally filled except for one table during our weekday lunch, so there seems to be plenty of lunch traffic in this area. read more

I love Sri Siam when I'm visiting my grandma (she likes it too) in Morton Grove. Here are the reasons why: Service: The server, Anna is always friendly and courteous. She offers water if you're waiting for a carry out order. She's the server, busser, cashier, order taker, and hostess so be patient people! Price: Their pricing is in line with other Thai places in the area. But the best deal is the lunch special. You get an appetizer, soup of the day, and an entree from the lunch menu for only $6.95. Food: Some Thai restaurants try to offer everything under the Thai food gamut and get it wrong. Sri Siam doesn't have the most expansive menu, but I appreciate it that. They know what they're good at making, and that's all they offer. I really like their noodles dishes and curry dishes. For noodles, Pad See Ewe and Pad Woon Sen are my favorites. For curry, I really like their green curry and Panang curry. Also, they offer brown rice as an option which is rare at Thai restaurants. ($1 for upgrade, but I don't mind). You may ask if I love everything here, why doesn't get 5 stars? Well, being Thai, no one makes better Thai food than my family so I don't ever give out 5 stars to Thai restaurant. Biased, I know! :) read more

Sri Siam caught my eye while heading to work one afternoon. A big shout out to Sarah S, who's review prompted my interest on visiting after looking it up on Yelp. Typically I go to the Subway which sits a few stores down, however today I wanted to try a different restaurant, which just so happen to be Sri Siam. Pre my initial visit I had dropped in a week prior, but they were closed, which led to me anticipating even more. Sri Siam struck me as a peaceful little Thai restaurant during my initial in-store visit because it was not crowded whatsoever. Prior to ordering I was amazed at what their menu consisted of. What caught my attention initially was the Sweet & Sour Catfish, which I will most definitely try on a later date. As for my order I kept it simple and ordered the Satay, which consisted of grilled slices of marinated chicken tenderloin served on bamboo skewers with peanut butter sauce and cucumber salad. I also ordered a Saucy Cake, which is a chocolate brownie cake. I was a little hesitant on eating the slices of marinated chicken tenderloin with peanut dipping sauce, but overall it was pretty good as well as the Saucy Cake. My overall goal was just to check Sri Siam out with no intentions of ordering a major dish, but I hope to try something a little more filling during my next visit which will be very soon due to Sri Siam being near where I work. I highly recommend, and hope this review assists you in any way. Enjoy! Thomas Gouard read more

My favorite neighborhood Thai restaurant. Great deal throughout the day. Favorite dishes so far - Thai Fried Rice - Pad Prik - Pad Woon Sen - Crab Rangoon - Thai Iced Tea So So dishes - Pad Thai (too sweet and ketcupy) - Basil Leave (ground meat prefer) - Tom Yum Noodle Soup (something missing. Not spicy at all?) - Spicy seafood combination (It wasn't good as picture. Hehehe) - Bubble tea (Tapioca too hard) Lots of good dishes! Although in some dishes, green beans and carrots were often too hard. Service is ok. Interior is ok. Most of the time it's clean. They open lunch through dinner. It packed with people at peak lunch and dinner time, but always find a seat. The best part is you can always get a great deal!! Choose your dish wisely!! read more

Love their food, really authentic and the service is friendly. Sometimes we order delivery, they're quick and food comes warm.

This place may be a hole in the wall type of place but the food is awesome. And though I am not Thai, this place seems as though its pretty legit and authentic. There is not anything that I have eaten here that I have disliked. The service is not always on point especially if they are busy but they are kind and the fact their food is pretty good and reasonably priced is a win win in my book. The mango sticky rice when its in season is pretty darn good. read more

I ordered delivery and it took 60 minutes as I was warned it might and it was a Saturday night, they were probably busy. The crab rangoons were room temperature when they arrived. They tasted as though they were from a vendor and previously frozen (I don't know if this is true, it was just my impression). The yellow curry was pretty good. The chocolate cake was fine. I don't recommend it, it's just not worth the price. I hope to try this place in person some time and order something different. Hopefully I'll have a little bit of a better experience then. read more
