“Delicious food! We were so very amazed by the food. My husband isn’t one to try many Asian type restaurants. The waitress recommended Bangkok chicken and let me just say, it was so very good. My husband loved it. He said the meal he had truly impressed him. I had the Pad Thai Chicken dinner that came with 2 egg rolls, cucumber salad (much more impressive than it sounds, I don’t generally like cucumbers but this was impressive), and a chicken mushroom soup that was also very good. The lady who waited on us was so very kind. My young son is very difficult to feed. But he loves friend rice, but his way. The waitress was patient with him and told him to just tell her exactly what he wanted in his fried rice. He was very pleased. My youngest son stole my egg rolls, gave 1 of the 2 to his brother. Then we ended up ordering another order because he liked them so much. This is only 1 of 2 meals in Chicago I can say everyone in the enjoyed. It’s a small little restaurant but we will be back before we leave the city.”
“I loved the ambience and service. Con’s: I ordered medium spicy food and it was thai hot level spice. Parking is very hard to find , we drove around 30 mins just to find a parking spot.”
“I got the basil chicken & egg rolls it was great! highly recommend it I will definitely be coming back to try more!”
“Soooo good food!! No fast food taste! Love this place”
“Very homey vibes suitable for lunch or dinner. Good service/attitude and amazing food. Highly recommend Khao Soi.”
“This is the real deal. Quickly seated and served on a Friday evening. The dinner special is great value, and the green curry delicious (protip: the breakfast/lunch/dinner distinction barely exists in Thailand, enjoy the inevitable leftovers for breakfast the next day)”
“Food was good little spicy but enough for me to handle and I don’t like spicy. I actually was going to check out the other thai place a min away but no one greeted me so I came here and got served right away. Such a good experience! Might be a little short staffed but wait was worth it!”
“Nos llevamos una grata sorpresa con la comida, pedimos Pad Thai de pollo y Chasew nut de cerdo para compartir junto con té helado tailandés. La comida estaba rica, bien servida, el servicio fue rápido, la atención fue buena, aunque cuesta trabajo entenderse porque no hablan inglés y les falla un poco la tecnología. El lugar es austero, pero tienen lo necesario.”
“Mamma Mia!! Cute little spot for some Thai food!”
