I really enjoyed food and service! I even ordered a delivery from this restaurant a day later. I definitely will order food from them again or visit this place if I am in the area. read more

I got the noodle beef soup and unfortunately I got diarrhea. I ate at around 1:30pm. The service was good but I think the beef was undercooked or maybe it was the dark oily broth. Either way this kind of ruined my Sunday. read more

We went here as our favorite server works here on Saturdays. The inside was very clean and the server is super nice and very good at running this restaurant. The pad see ewe was great as well as the green curry. They also have a nice bar with mixed drinks and beer. The Thai coffee is addictive! Try them out read more

Really wished I could love this spot but this place didn't leave a good food impression. The spicy tuna roll was good but the mussaman curry and the pad see eiw was too sweet for our liking even though we did request for it to be spicy. The food came out quickly which was great and the service was kind and wonderful. read more

They have a lunch special that runs until 3pm for $14.99 where you can order from a selection of apps and dishes, and some of the drinks were $1 off like the thai tea I had! The food was okay but not the best I've ever had. Crab rangoon as appetizers wasn't bad but was only filled with white cream cheese filling (nothing else), and the sweet and sour dipping sauce was runny. Green curry was a little spicy. It's been years since I've eaten green curry so perhaps I should've gone with my usual panang curry (but that wasn't an option for the lunch special). I plan to give this place another try and order panang curry next time! Didn't actually see sushi on the menu when I came during lunchtime.. The service was friendly and quick though. And it was a nice, warm, spacious place to have lunch. read more

My experience here was pretty disappointing overall, especially considering that this is one of the few Thai places in the area, but perhaps we just went here during an off night. The interior of the restaurant is very clean and modern--you will be quickly seated and we didn't have much of a wait. Unfortunately the chopsticks that they had provided (typical wooden chopsticks packaged in paper that you see at most Asian restaurants) had some strange black mold on them. The chopsticks were replaced but it put us off to a bad start with the food. The food overall felt under seasoned and didn't seem to taste up to par. The crab rangoons tasted of strange cheese, and the curry and the beef in the pad see ew just tasted off. I'm sure this place is good during most days but my food experience was below average overall. read more

Please do not trust the high ratings on this place. My friends and I were craving some sushi and Thai food so we decided to go here after seeing the high reviews. 1st red flag- staff weren't attentive at all. My friend was eating her appetizer when the waiter took her plate from her mid-bite. Making all of us feel rushed. While going over the menu we noticed there in fact was no sushi, so we played it safe by getting chicken teriyaki and crab rangoon. 2nd red flag- this had to be the strangest crab rangoon ever. It was filled with only cream cheese. I don't remember getting a single piece of crab in the three I had. 3rd red flag- the chicken teriyaki plate was honestly laughable. As soon as it came out I could tell it wasn't going to worth the high price of $18. The vegetables were raw, not seasoned, not even steamed, just cold to the touch. I personally wasn't expecting chicken slabs drenched in sauce. The chicken itself was hard to chew and got cold pretty fast. I was really disappointed with the quality of the food for the price I paid :( i could only eat 2 pieces of chicken before calling it quits and deciding to go to McDonald's afterwards since I left hungry. 4TH RED FLAG- after this horrendous meal the waiter comes around for us to pay. I noticed he was looking really long and hard at you as you put in the tip amount. Two of us tipped from the pressure of this man looking at the screen as we're paying. The other two did not tip because of the food quality and other factors leading up to this point. Mind you the lowest amount to tip was 18% which is insane since the food wasn't good and the service was bad. As we're leaving he comes up with 2 receipts for my friends that did not tip and he points to the tip spot on the receipt and says, "no tip." That was the cherry on top of this experience. (Promise, I did not mean for this to be that long but please do yourself a favor and go somewhere else in this area. There's so many great spots to try just not this one!) read more

The ordering/pickup process here is smooth. However, the rest of the experience was disappointing. For over $60 we got a Godzilla sushi roll, pad woonsen, and panang curry. Portions were decent but they should be especially with the ridiculous pricing. The sushi had an okay flavor, but it was just barely one level above grocery store sushi. It definitely had too much cream cheese and not worth over $20. The noodles lacked flavor and vegetables; the tofu was barely cooked. The chili sriracha sauce slightly elevated the flavor but it was still disappointing. The curry was honestly awful. There was a pool of grease at the top and it tasted nothing like the many panang curries I've tried. There were also no vegetables. Waste of money. Not coming back. read more

I really like eating at Tiparos: the food is good, there isn't a wait, and it is reasonably priced. I like to start with the veggie egg rolls, which are the smaller style ones that are common at Thai restaurants. Then, I enjoy the drunken noodles. They are not on the menu as "drunken noodles", but when I ask for that, the servers know what I want and it is quite good. I get the dish with double veggies and tofu. The service is usually quick and the staff is friendly. read more

We went with our 10 and 12 year old and they loved it! Especially the 10 year old. He specifically asked us to leave a 5 star review because "the food came super quick, it was goated, dessert was perfect, staff were nice, and the place was super clean and calm." He got the coconut icecream. My other son go the pad Thai and wanted a second order. read more

Used to go here 15 years ago. Went back last week - and wow. Have the Panang and thank me later; or don't bc you will think all other Panang sucks from this day on. Love this place. Will come back; hopefully within 15 years. read more

It was good, but not spiced enough. Service was great, ambiance and prices were very well set. It is a good spot to try but just bare in mind that is not season well. read more

Food was the best Thai we've had in the city!!! Absolutely delicious!!! Service fantastic. Hidden gem!

this place is so awesome. the food and service is great. good prices and amazingggggg food

If you haven't had authentic thai food then you might like this place, but if you've eaten authentic thai food then you'll be disappointed like me. On my visit I ordered Beef Pad Thai which is a very simple dish, akin to the Chinese dish Beef Fried Rice, of course, Pad Thai is comprised of noodles. As you know, rice or noodles will typically act as a blank canvas when cooking, meaning the spices and seasonings will adhere to the rice or noodles leaving the dish overall very flavorful. So if the dish comes out bland and lacks flavor then something went wrong in the seasoning department, ya dig? The only thing I could taste in my order of Beef Pad Thai was oyster sauce, which isn't a good sign. Plus the beef was tough and overcooked instead of being tender. I noticed the service to be very quick and I found them to be eager to help the customers. read more

They are super friendly and I love their food. The sushi is amazing for a local spot. Pad Thai is out of this world, delicious!!!

Decided to stop in as we were at the Van Gogh exhibit. Small place. We were quickly greeted and seated. After reading the menu decided to get chicken pad Thai and pepper steak. The pepper steak came with a side of white rice. It was very flavorful. My boyfriend greatly enjoyed enjoyed the pad Thai. The service was quick and super friendly. Two servers consistently checked on us. I also noticed several regulars who the chef knew by name. Cute little place! read more

This place was super clean inside and did not have an issue walking in and getting a table for 5. The pad khee Mao didn't have a ton of flavor so I added more soy sauce. I also asked for not very spicy and it was super super spicy, and I have a good spice tolerance. You can see in the picture how many Jalapeno seeds and red pepper is still in the dish. Had a bite of my friends curry fried rice which was very tasty. read more

I was walking home from the park around dinner time when I passed this place and decided to stop in. When I walked in I was greeted right away and let them know I was planning to order take out. Since this was an impulse decision, I had no idea what to order but knew I wanted sushi. They sushi chef listened to what I liked and made some recommendations which was awesome- him & the rest of the staff were so nice and made this place an awesome experience as I waited for my takeout! I ordered the sweet potato roll and the spider maki. They were both a good sized roll and the rice was made very well. I would rank the sushi just very average, nothing too special but it's not bad! Next time, I would try some different rolls. The pricing was average as well. Overall, I want to go back to try the noodles & the service was great! read more

Pretty good neighborhood spot. Very spacious on the inside so never a problem getting a table. BYOB though they do have beer choices just no wine selections. Plenty of menu choices and the portions are big! Ourselves and everyone around us left with to-go bags. We had the chicken egg rolls as a starter and they were delicious. One order is enough for two people. For entrees we had chicken Pad See Ew and Massaman curry. This was my first time having Massaman curry it had beef, pineapple, potato, white onion, and tomato's in it served with jasmine rice it was a great dish. It was loaded with big chunks of beef, next time I'll have to cut the beef chunks into smaller bites it was tender beef but a lot to chew in one bite. Service was great and the place was really clean. Definitely a solid choice that won't disappoint if you're in the area. read more

I've lived very close to this restaurant for a few months, but because the reviews weren't great, I was always hesitant to try it. HOWEVER, the reviews really low-ball this place. I'm not sure what people are getting that they don't like or if it is because of dining service, but their take out has been great! I love their Massaman Curry! It's the perfect flavor combinations. Also their Spicy Basil chicken fried rice is golden! Also the portions are so big that my husband and I can eat off of the food for several meals! I also loved the Shrimp fried wontons. I definitely recommend this place at least for takeout. It's a solid option and has been pretty consistent and very fresh tasting each time! read more

My friends and I went here for dinner recently and unknowingly stayed far past closing time but the staff were incredibly kind and gracious towards us and showed excellent hospitality and service nonetheless. The food was very good as well, the crab Rangoon was some of the best I've ever had and the pad thai with chicken was good as well. Portions are also good. Would definitely go back. read more

Yummy and pretty inexpensive food (for the area) conveniently around the corner from Germania Place (theater) if you want to grab dinner after being cultural and seeing an immersive art gallery show. read more

Randomly stopped in while in the area. The food was really good but the service was outstanding and made my visit. The ladies working the front were incredibly friendly and wonderful... Never had an empty glass of water or tea and food was brought out quickly. I was holding my screaming baby and one waitress asked if I needed a box and instead took my plates and boxed everything up for me on her own. If you have kids you get how much this gesture means and helps. What we ordered... Appetizer platter, house salad, rama chicken, cashew beef and taro bubble tea. All delicious with generous portions. Would order again and recommend. read more

decent pad thai, not enough sauce. I really liked the thai tea and the curry my friend got was alright. Probably won't be back though.

I couldn't recommend this place more. From the traditional Thai dishes to the sushi, the preparation and execution are excellent across the board. I've dined at highly rated Japanese restaurants that delivered scallop nigiri (among other dishes) with only a fraction of the quality--at double the price. Having grown up in Chicago, I was thoroughly impressed that the sushi here rivals, and even surpasses, all but a few Michelin-starred restaurants in Chicago, as well as every restaurant, starred or otherwise, that I've tried in New York. read more

Got takeout. Panang Curry and pad Thai. Noodles were dry and had little sauce but what was really off putting was that the rice was weird and had an odd taste and smell. Could tell it was super old rice which I feel is the absolute minimum an Asian restaurant should offer. Will never go back which is sad bc I live very close and love Thai takeout read more

To start with the Thai ice tea was great it was the perfect pair with Mussaman curry and the noodles there service was great very friendly and fast this a very nice and great Thai spot read more

Quick service and easy takeout spot. Pad Thai was just okay, nothing special and lacked some flavor. Also got the chicken and rice soup since I was feeling under the weather and it hit the spot! Looks like something with peanut sauce should have been my go to! Next time I will try this. read more

The absolute best. The spring rolls are so perfectly balanced and the vegetarian maki is out of this world. You *must* try the sweet potato tempura roll. I've had many, many sweet potato rolls in my time, but this takes the cake because they keep the tempura super crispy. P.S. pro tip is get a side of sauce. Very generous and will make any ramen or rice you have at home an amazing dish read more

I had been saying I want to go to this place for a few months and I was very excited when my boyfriend surprised me and took me here for a date night. Welp, there was no sushi on the day we went, there was no duck on the day we went and my excitement was turned down to disappointment. I was surprised they didn't have shrimp eggrolls so we got the chicken eggrolls and they were good but the price for 2 was $5.50. We also had the cucumber salad for $3.50, Almond Beef I think was about $13.00 and we also got another order of the Jasmine rice because it was not enough rice for our Almond Beef. The waitress was nice and the place was clean but that didn't make up for not having the sushi or the duck. There weren't a lot of people in the restaurant when we went and I don't know if that is how it is normally but it wasn't busy. I think the only reason I would go back here is to get the chicken egg rolls other than that I wasn't that impressed. As always folks... Enjoy!!! read more

Stopped in around 7 on a Saturday night. It was more than half full but not crowded. We were seated immediately and given two glasses and a corkscrew for the wine we bought across the street at Potash. It is BYOB wine only and there was a five dollar corkage fee I wasn't aware of. Not a big deal but I don't think it's on the menu. We ordered the chicken egg rolls for a starter which tasted as expected. You got four pieces and a sweet and sour type sauce that wasn't super sweet. I ordered pad see ew with chicken. I really liked it. It didn't have quite the same level of sweetness as I have had before. Having never actually been to Thailand I have no idea what it authentically tastes like. Husband ordered a curry dish that he liked. Restrooms weren't in the restaurant but were shared with the building. It was a little weird but luckily there were two deadbolts to keep me safe in there. Service was great and the food exceeded my expectations. read more

I went on the Tiparo's website and ordered takeout and was really swept away by everything I ordered. Godzilla and Volcano maki hit it out of the park! Crab rangoon - Tiparo's makes them the very best! Egg rolls - now who doesn't like an egg roll? On top of that, I got free pot stickers for ordering more than $25. Even my vegetarian spouse enjoyed the crab rangoon and pot stickers. I'd say that considering this is a restaurant we can both enjoy, that we could definitely order from Tiparo's more often. Also, be sure to order from their website directly (or any restaurant) so that their profits aren't compromised by convenient delivery apps. read more

Greetings, I am on the journey to find the best pad thai in the United States. My journey has brought me to Tiparos. I have been to Tiparos before for their pad see ew and have been consistently impressed, so when I ordered the vegetarian pad thai I was hopeful. Alas, my hope was crushed under the fierce fist of mediocrity. There was little/no sauce and where there was it tasted like simple syrup, devoid of any depth of flavor. The noodles were overcooked to the point where they developed a " fuzzy " texture, and overall it was just really bland. Simply put this pad thai was just really not good. 1 star for the pad thai. Keep workin that jazzy pad see ew though! My journey continues. Accepting requests and recommendations. read more
