Late Night Thai

3.6256 reviews ·Opens at 4

Late Night Thai is a Lakeview late-night lifesaver, serving smoky chicken pad see ew, standout chicken satay with peanut sauce, rave-worthy panang curry, sushi, and remarkably fresh boba well into the early hours. Regulars love the welcoming owner, flavorful food, and reliable takeout—even at 2 a.m.—but it’s primarily a pickup/delivery spot, and some reviews flag long waits, small portions, and inconsistent service.

One ‘late’ night, my family and I were craving boba and decided to take a chance with them through ubereats. We had almost no expectations—most spots were closed, and late-night delivery is usually hit or miss. But, when the drinks arrived they blew our minds! The boba was incredibly fresh—perfectly chewy without being mushy or hard. The drink was the perfect temperature, and the tea was absolutely refreshing. Mind you, this was not a one time thing. I think I have a slight addiction to the thai tea boba from this place because I keep ordering it and it always hits!

Great for staple Thai dishes, don’t get anything too uncommon or you will be sorely disappointed. Ordered duck curry and ended up with raw meat (see picture)

Late Night Thai on Belmont hits every time! The chicken pad see ew is straight-up bomb – noodles cooked perfectly with that smoky wok flavor that’s hard to beat. The chicken satay is another must-have, and that peanut butter sauce? Next level delicious. What makes this place even better is the vibe. The owner is a total G – old school, cool, and always makes you feel welcome. It’s rare to find a spot that serves amazing food with that kind of authentic character behind the counter. If you’re out late and craving Thai, this is the spot. 🔥🍜🥢

Ordered through uber eats very late on a Sunday — I’m 30 weeks pregnant and the craving for a deep fried roll hit me like a train. I got the lava maki and it truly hit the spot, it was delicious!!! The spicy mayo is 💯

I've regularly ordered online from Late Night Thai and can confirm that this place is a hidden gem - don't listen to the negative reviews! Although to be fair I cannot speak to the customer service as I have not listened in person. The fact that a Thai and sushi spot is open and odd hours into the night, AND consistently serves delicious food is unheard of. They may not have the fanciest options or the largest variety of choices, but this place will definitely satisfy Thai / sushi cravings! We will definitely continue to order from Late Night Thai in the future.
