“Incredible authentic thai food. Much higher food quality than other Thai places for the price in my experience.”
“SIAM-SIAM is unquestionably our "go to" place for THAI cuisine in the suburbs. Originally, "I AM SIAM", owner sold and has since been reinvented; - - - - - all for the "GOOD". Food quality is at the very least as good as we remember from "I AM SIAM". Very nice people owning and operating this new location. I can readily say that anything on their menu would be an excellent choice. I don't say that about many restaurants of any nature. And, I must also say that considering the size and quality of their portions, their pricing is a real bargain, considering how inflation has affected most other restaurants.”
“Wednesday night, walked in to try for the first time. Only one other table occupied. Music was a bit loud considering. Menu offers a decent amount of choices and some dishes not entirely common at every Thai. We ordered moo ping which was good. The spring rolls were in wraps more like vietnamese rolls versus the crepe-like wrappers normally seen in thai restaurants. Rama chicken was good, as well as fried rice and pad see ewe.”
“A few times a year my husband works in Buffalo Grove, IL. It’s Northwest of Chicago. Any time we are traveling I like searching local restaurants. Siam Siam Thai has been on the list for a long time. Stopped in for lunch today. Husband had the Cashew Stir Fry. Definitely a great dish . Sublte sweetness, cashew present but well balanced, and the beef was very tender. My Tom Kha was the best we have had since moving to the Midwest 4 yrs ago. Most places we have eaten Tom Kha since leaving Texas have been watery broth, hardly tasting the coconut milk and not nearly enough spices. Siam Siam hit all the levels today. Lemongrass, galangal root, lime and the coconut milk broth was creamy and with hearty full flavors. I enjoyed the jalapenos slices which were simmered in the broth which bringing the heat down to a place of flavor and not being over powered by spice. The service was quick and the restaurants is very clean. Definitely worth anyone’s time to visit this place!! 🖤🖤”
“On a work trip and wanted Thai, and this was a quick jump away from the hotel I was staying in. It was a gamble l, but one that paid off. Fantastic food, perfectly seasoned, and the wait staff was amazing as well. I asked for super spicy and it didn't disappoint. If you are in the area, stop ina and enjoy.”
“Wonderful food with good service. We loved the taro custard dessert and the basil fried rice”
“Nice restaurant with attentive staff. Have a good lunch menu too. I had the Basil chicken and was very happy with the flavors and lots of peppers and onions. Many times you get 3 or 4 peppers and 2 basil leaves, but they didn't skimp here. Wife had beef soup noodle but was disappointed with the flavors wanting an authentic spicy flavor. If in the area I would return for sure.”
“Best Thai Restaurant at Buffalo Grove location. My spouse and little one love this place their food and service. Dragon Noddles, Thai Fried Rice. They have mango papaya tea which is very Thai Traditional one must to try.”
“Very tasty satisfying Thai food. Super friendly and caring service. Big portions and good prices. Highly recommend!”
