All in all it was a nice family dinner - good for a neighborhood spot for takeout, but probably won't dine in again

the food is delicious ( I had the green curry with chicken + Thai peanut spring rolls) it's more than reasonably priced from what I gathered, this place is family owned and has been passed down The owner and staff were friendly + welcoming the ambiance of the place is also colorful and very inviting! Definitely somewhere I would take my partner out to for a cozy date If you're looking to support local - GIVE THESE PEOPLE YOUR MONEY in exchange for delicious food and great service :)

Out of all Thai restaurants in Chicago, this place impressed me the most! They have different menus for those who like adventurous authentic Thai food. Nice small place, and food tastes like what I had in Chiang Mai, Thailand. And the owner is very friendly. I’m very surprised that this place didn’t get many dining in. But I saw many people picked up the food they ordered online. So give it a try ;)

Looking for delicious Thai food? Look no further! Sincerely impressed with everything we tried on the menu. My wife really enjoyed the salad with glass noodles. I loved the garlic shrimp and the chef created some delicious tofu dishes. 5 star meal!
