Paragon — clean, consistent thai in Evanston. Friendly team that sets the tone. Good value, quick and efficient. "The orange chicken was some of the best I have ever had" — Tim Darr

“My all time favorite is the salmon lover's platter if I am not having the all you can eat menu”
The Satay was cut with the grain, amateur hour mistake. Very chewy.
I used to enjoy this place a lot, but the last few times I had went, they weren't very pleasant.
FOOD IS EXTREMELY BLAND AND DISAPPOINTING!!. if you read the reviews, a lot of ppl say this…. and i can confirm.

“I would very much recommend this place.”
I would very much recommend this place. The sushi was really good. The orange chicken was some of the best I have ever had. The Pad Thai was almost as good as Tong Phoon in Fairview IL which was won awards for their Thai food.

“I love Siam Paragon.”
I love Siam Paragon. My family and I come here all the time for sushi. It's always delicious, my mom loves the drinks the server Jay makes. It's a great place to come with family, or even by yourself or on a date. The owners are a very kind family.

Ir tour are coming to Evanston, Illinois you must make a stop on this restaurant, they serve the best Asian food around here. And some days the have an “All you can eat” option, highly recommended. Service is excellent and food extraordinary.

“We had really amazing lunch with a really good price deals.”
We had really amazing lunch with a really good price deals. Like BOGO sushi rolls and $10 lunch specials. The food itself was really delicious. The sushimi is very high quality and for the price can not be beaten. I would highly recommend the Orange sauce stir fry with Chicken. It’s a simple dish that gives you a very filling and delicious meal.

“My dining partner and I both had the lunch specials - Kung pao with tofu and Pad See Eiw with chicken.”
My dining partner and I both had the lunch specials - Kung pao with tofu and Pad See Eiw with chicken. Lots of food for the lunch special price - includes a bowl of miso soup and a small salad with ginger dressing. I like how my dish was served in a bento box - pretty cool. Only one person serving both dine in and take out but wasn't super busy and she was efficient.

“I love sushi, and food here.”
I love sushi, and food here. You will love all kinds of sushi. Also the food is great. It is not super cheap, but affordable and compare to quality, it is great. The only reason that this place does not deserve a 5-star review is angry water/waitresses. They are usually slow, and they are helpful.

“I used to enjoy this place a lot, but the last few times I had went, they weren't very pleasant.”
I used to enjoy this place a lot, but the last few times I had went, they weren't very pleasant. I thought perhaps things have improved since I last went. Boy, was I wrong! I called in my order and without confirming my order, the woman just said "20 minutes" and hung up. I go to pick up my order and I receive no greeting whatsoever. I tell the woman with the short curly hair that I'm picking up a carryout order and point to the bag on the counter. She rings me out, I hand her my card, she doesn't hand me back the card, but puts it on the counter and without a word, waves her hand at the bag basically signaling I can take it. No "thank you" or any type of pleasantries. The customer service is severely lacking.
