My first time going ordering from this place. I am very disappointed. Food wasn’t that tasty and the lady was on the phone just chatting out loud, never ask me if I needed anything. As I was ignored I took time to look around… yikes!!! Walls, pictures frames and light fixtures had so much dust on it. This place needs a good cleaning. Eating area had some of there kitchen supplies stack up as storage. Never will I order from place👎🏽. It’s sad, we need a good Thai restaurant in the area. Des Plaines
I know this will spark debate, but I wanted to try pineapple with my fried rice, so that's what I did. The flavor of the dish is spot on; it has savory notes from the curry powder, sweetness from the pineapple, and nice, but there is a few aspect of it that I don't enjoy. The pork and chicken were dry and difficult to eat. I just hope I don't get sick because of the one piece of pork that had a sour aftertaste. The pineapple was undoubtedly canned because some of the slices had a strange flavor and some were sweet. Their dessert, which came in two portions of banana sticky rice, is the one thing I enjoy eating. It's a simple but tasty dish made of sticky rice with a fresh banana filling and wrapped in a banana leaves. The sticky rice was fragile and gooey at the same time. The banana filling was tender; it also had an undertone of sweetness. The texture of the bean is somewhat solid.
Came here for lunch. This is my first time dining since the current owners came in a few years ago and put the focus to be exclusively on Thai dishes. The strip mall the restaurant is in has limited parking, which can make things a bit of a challenge. If you are bringing multiple people, be sure to carpool! I started with egg rolls and was very pleased by how hot, crisp and fresh they were when they arrived at my table. Excellent dipping sauce and with six there would have been plenty to share. My entree was the green chili with beef, shrimp and chicken. I asked for medium spicy. The plate was generously sized and I ended up taking at least a third of it with me as leftovers. Excellent dish, and just the amount of heat I enjoy in my food! The couple that owns this restaurant are very attentive to their customers and genuinely enjoy cooking for everyone who stops in. They recognized one gent who arrived during my meal and called him by name! Now that I work in the area I believe I will become a regular, myself.
Just started going here and right off the bat everything was amazing!!! It was so good that i went three times in a week!! Food was amazing for both take out and dine in. The owners are very nice and checked in with us time to time!! Overall a great place to eat at and nice to support a business that has been around for years and years!! Loved the cream cheese rangoons, pad see ew, and pad thai! I can’t wait to go back and try other foods recommended by the owner herself!
The food here is incredible! Service is awesome, they always accommodate my requests and they always get my order right! I recommend the potstickers and the Basil Beef! The owners here couldn't be more accommodating. This is my #1place for Thai Food.
