“Excellent little Thai restaurant, where the locals eat. In town for a play at the Newhart Theater at Loyola. This restaurant easily within walking distance. All the traditional Thai dishes.”
“The food is very good. Service is fast and friendly. The place is a bit small (better suited for takeout)”
“I had the panang curry with veggies and tofu! It was absolutely flavorful and delicious! The sauce is perfect! Great service and wonderful! I will definitely return here again and again.”
“I did a takeout order for the Thai fried rice lunch special and was so impressed. The price was so reasonable considering the variety and quality of the food. So fresh and super duper tasty. The egg roll is literally perfect. Not pictured is my included can of soda. Best of all is the very friendly service. I'm so glad I gave this place a try. I will absolutely 100% be back and I'm looking forward to exploring the menu more.”
“I ordered pad see ew with crispy pork belly added and crab rangoons and my friend got pad see ew with shrimp and beef and she got crab rangoons too and both are soooooooo gaddamn good‼️‼️ Like seriously the best food here must tryyy for everyone❤️❤️”
“Best Pad Thai around and one of the best hospitality and service you’ll get in the Chicago area! I discovered this spot through the classpass app (they started food reservations). I usually order out but when I took a friend for a well needed pick me up meal I was throughly surprised. The place is nice and clean. Great atmosphere. The apps come out quite promptly. I’ve had the fried chicken wings, miso soup, egg rolls, chicken pad Thai and crab Rangoon (one of the best spots ever for this). It’s one of the spots I recommend to any one looking for good food and food service. Please pay them a visit and tip well!”
“I had peanut salad, thai milk tea and pad thai with veggies today. I liked the taste of peanut salad(FRESH AND FLAVOURFUL and thai milk tea(NOT TOO SWEET ). This is first time trying pad thai and they had especiialy made it without fish oil for me. It was okay for me. Portion size was good. The lady who took my order was nice and sweet.”
“awesome prices, really nice person at the front, food came out quickly, and really delicious”
“Holy cow, some great food. Ordered green curry and eggs on the side. Very friendly prices too ;)”
“Apparently you don’t even get a full cup … and we paid extra for extra chicken. I usually don’t care but this felt like a rip off. Not a bigger cup … 24-26oz is standard from any Thai place I’ve ever ordered. 32oz would be a larger cup. How cheap you gotta be to fill a cup like that?!?”
