    Eggroll
    Christina T.

    I finally got to try out this spot! I know this place has been around, and I hear so many great things. The food came out so fast & the service was good. We kept getting asked if everything was okay and if we needed anything. Everything we ordered was a "must order". We knew we ordered a lot of food but we had to have it. The chicken wings were so crispy & juicy. The papaya salad satisfied my craving with the perfect amount of spice!! The beef jerky was perfect especially with the sticky rice and the crack sauce. Even the egg rolls were good.....with the sauce too! I'm already craving for this again as I'm writing this. I'm looking forward to the next time I'm back!

    Poor service. The gentleman who took my order was on the phone the entire time holding me up from getting back to work, as I was on my lunch break. This was the worst and I do mean the worst, general tso chicken I have ever had in my entire life!!! The chicken tasted old and dry. The broccoli was not fresh and overall, I was upset that I wasted $16 on it. What's worse, is that i'd pre-ordered my food over the phone and asked if they had any lunch specials to which they said no. No big deal. But then when I asked for an order of the general, tso chicken, I also asked if they had any meal combinations that came with rice, etc. he said yes, but when I got my food, it was a large order of general tso chicken and a small side of white rice. I have not written a yelp review in a very long time, but this service was atrocious. The food was disgusting and I hope others avoid. Especially if you're from anywhere with good Chinese cuisine.

    Great food and friendly staff. I loved the beef lab, I used to come here all the time as a kid and it's just as good as an adult!

    Food is always good, I'd say they're a staple restaurant in Elgin, been around forever, I remember the building being our first Taco Bell.

    Not my favorite. My fiancé is plain chicken and white rice and sauce on the side and he was even less than thrilled.

    Food was delicious and the service was good, but the restaurant was dirty. If it were clean I would have given it 5 stars.

    Tonight, we tried Bangkok Thai Exp due to the high ratings. They let you seat yourself in the very…read morelimited seating area (3 booths). The initial impression is that the place is clean. Upon sitting, we were immediately seated. Their menu has plenty of choices. I ordered the garlic chicken and egg rolls (4 to an order). My better half got the Basil Chicken. Her basil chicken was delicious and plenty on the quantity as well! The basil didn't overpower the dish but delivered a perfect amount of minty basil flavor. My garlic chicken was crispy, and maybe a little dry but the flavor was great. The garlic was great in the chicken... but fantastic in the broccoli and veggies'. The only thing I would ding them on is that the garlic chicken quantity seemed skimpy compared to hers. The egg rolls were awesome and their sweet and sour had a little no heat spice to it!!! Yum! Overall, we liked the food. I'd give hers 5 stars and mine 4. One thing I almost dinged them to 3 stars (my average), was that the small dining area froze every time the door opened. Thai Express is absolutely worth checking out!

    I just have to rave about this Penang Curry with Tofu. It is SOO good. I got the lunch special…read morewhich is enough to split into two meals for me. I got it with mild spice and it's the perfect amount of spice. All around perfect! I've ordered from here several times and I pretty much have loved everything I've had so far. They do such a great job with the flavor and portions!
