Heng Wing Restaurant

Still a great meal, just not the same Heng Wing I grew up with. I grew up in Palatine and ordering out from Heng Wing was always a treat. Everything was always perfect and if there happened to be leftovers, they'd be gone within 24 hours. Even as a young adult I lived in downtown Palatine and frequented the establishment. Shrimp fried rice and an order of egg rolls were always my go to. I no longer live in the area but still get the craving when I come back. Today my family ordered out for Christmas Eve dinner. As I called to make my reservation, I noticed some less than favorable reviews recently. The reviews didn't deter me, and quite honestly, I'm glad they didn't. The main entrees we got were delicious as always. - garlic chicken lo mein - vegetable egg foo young - Mongolian beef - shrimp fried rice To many including myself, Heng Wing egg rolls were always second to none. While the egg roll I ate today was still decent, it was far from the same egg roll I have eaten hundreds of times. Others in my family agreed. The outside of the roll was perfectly crisp as always. The interior was lacking though with less meat than I remembered. I hope they can go back to their old roll recipe. They set the bar so high and I'm hoping they can reach it again.

Take out service is terrible. I placed phone order at 2:30 pm for a 6pm pickup. They said 5:30 would be better for them. I agreed and got there at 5:15pm and waited in the overfull lobby (like many other people) until 7:15pm. Totally unorganized order filling system with no apologies by anyone for their bumbled system.

We liked it a bit pricey but still delicious! staff is friendly! called order in was ready when they said it was parking is good definitely coming back here love their egg rolls

I’ve been going here for years, and probably will continue. The portions have gotten smaller, and the price keeps going up, but its “sorta” understandable. This was my first order of the, “Large Salt and Pepper Shrimp” and I was not disappointed. Probably one of their best dishes. Overall it’s definitely worth giving the place a go, the food is delicious!

You won’t find better wings in Chicagoland area. All of the sauces/coatings are amazing. Great atmosphere and service is a huge plus. We have been going here for years and never left disappointed. A must visit place if you love wings. Make sure you come hungry!

Want to find a way to get more aluminum in your diet? Order Gator's Buffalo wings for takeout. Got through the top layer then found this. Wings, sauce, and aluminum foil literally melted together on the bottom layer of wings. First and last time at this place.

The best taco I’ve ever had. There, I said it. Get the number 3 - it’s the best quesabirria broth, I could drink a gallon of it. The atmosphere is just your typical hole in the wall type joint but the staff was so friendly and accommodating. Our toddler and my husband loved it and will be back!

My gf and I went here for dinner tonight (didn’t wanna cook 😂) but I’m so glad we chose this place I’ve been meaning to try since moving to Palatine. It was such a good experience from the moment I walked in to the second we left. The food was to die for. We had the Beef and Vegetable soup special and the quecas! Both were very good! They pay attention to detail and everything was clean. I will definitely be coming back and will recommend to everyone! Love supporting small businesses like theirs.

Thai House Restaurant

384reviews

UPDATE : Aug 2024 Have recently visited them again for lunch and did a take away. The lunch menu and service was good. I liked the fact that they maintained a good portion size and also were courteous. The prices have been kept steady and are still pocket friendly. I found the hygiene and preparations to be better this time Vs a year ago. Adding some pics. The lunch was served with a soup, starter. Stick with common items red curry, basil fried rice, pad Thai… tofu items were better option =============== >>>> NOT an Authentic Thai location. If using lemon grass and coconut milk in recipe qualifies as Thai … it will probably fit. Ordered Tom-Yum soup, Pad-ke-mao noodles and Panag curry. The soup had mushrooms that were not cleaned well. The noodles lacked punch and chicken was rubbery at times. Panag curry tasted only of coconut milk… had green peas and full of sliced chicken that were kind of pre-boiled. I will AVOID it. Also online order has $1.00 convenience charge. Funny…they charged me for hot sauce on side.

I didn't expect much because the store and tables were messy and unclean, but the food was delicious. The decoration of the food was also pretty and unexpected. However, I am hesitant to bring my friends. It would be nice if the interior was as clean as the food.

Phở Son Ha

The food itself was excellent, flavorful, and authentic. Service was polite and moderately attentive. We were sat next to a window, and the atmosphere was so cold I felt a chill creep up my legs and back. Tap to pay is available, but the credit card machine isn't mobile to the table, so you'll need to walk up to the desk to pay by this method. Also for it being a restaurant, their credit card machine doesn't include a tip line, so they ask you if you want to leave a tip before running the card, which I find awkward. Aside from these service and comfort issues that need fixing, the food is quite good.

I LOVE it here so much i come here all the time with friends. The food is so gooooood i think about going here even on the days when they’re closed. some days i can’t wait for it to be 4 Pm already. I always get the regular pho tai and it’s always gone before I can even realize it. this place is my happy place after a long day simply because the food is just that good. Definitely give this place a try. Also the family that runs this restaurant is so attentive and super kind.

Indian Bistro

751reviews

A week ago, late in the evening, my son and I found ourselves hungry and wanted to get Indian food. We Googled and found Indian Bistro, which online says is open until 9:30 pm, but it actually closes at 9:00 pm on weekdays. Despite arriving just 30 minutes before closing, the staff was incredibly friendly, kind, and willingly taking our order. The food surpassed our expectations, being both delicious and generous in terms of sauces and meat—the essentials. However, the portion of rice was on the smaller side, which is fine since we didn’t go there to eat rice ;-). Considering we paid over $30 for two dishes, bread and a drink, we expected better-quality plates and containers, but they were very flimsy. When you open the containers, it can get a bit messy. The place is perfect for a take-out. The Chicken Tikka Masala was delicious but had no kick, even though we didn’t request it to be mild. The Lamb dish was delicious, full of flavor. Because you get so much delicious sauces, we just made fresh rice, and had dinner next day. The paratha bread was another highlight, so delicious that I ordered couple extra pieces home. The staff, didn’t mind even though they were closing in a few minutes. If you want a good Indian to-go food - this is a place. We will definitely be ordering from there again

I’ve ordered from here a few times, but today’s dish of Chicken 65 was AMAZING. I had never tried Indian food until a few months ago and I can’t wait to try everything on the menu at Indian Bistro. Today was the first time I actually went inside and the employees could not have been sweeter. What a kind group of hard working people. And the atmosphere was so nice and inviting. I will for sure be back.

It was our first time here and it was a great experience. The service and atmosphere 10 out of 10. I gave the food 4 stars specifically because of the sliced brisket. We found it a tad dry, but holy crap. The chicken was insanely tender and juicy, fell right off the bone. Truffle fries good, Brussel sprouts amazing ands overall an incredible food and drink menu. I would definitely recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Must try! Great meats, barbecue, and cocktails. What else could you ask for. Make sure to ask about their daily specials. The smoked pastrami is amazing.

Siri Thai Two

A solid choice for Thai food in the burbs. Even the ants love it! There was a tiny ant roaming around on my plate. It gave the food the thumbs up and I gave it a thumb. Our waiter was very nice and friendly. We ordered the chicken with garlic sauce, pad see ew, and the fried catfish. All were really good. Besides the ant, and the constant flying of a hungry gnat, the dining experience was good. I'm not a fan of the sticky rice and mango, but my dining partners in crime enjoyed it. The chicken in my dish was somewhat dry, but I get it... chicken is hard! Pad see ew was solid though. Overall, a good meal. BATHROOM REVIEW: Located in the back, past the kitchen, the bathroom was VERY nice. I think it was nicer than the restaurant dining area itself. Clean, modern, and pleasant, I'd sit on that bad boy any day.

Wow - I haven't dined here since the pandemic -- it was GREAT to be back! Anyway, I was craving Thai food big time, last Thursday night 1-2-2025, so I ordered almost $200 of it! (The online ordering system worked out quickly and smoothly!) All the food was spectacularly hot, fresh and delicious! My order was also ready on time and accurate! The inside of the restaurant looked cozy, festive and very clean too! (Maybe next time I'll dine in)!

To start off, the food here was a bit cheaper compared to the Libertyville location. I had dinner here twice and the food came really fast! The noodles salad and spring rolls were delicious. Servers were nice as well. Not to mention the interior design was elegant and had high ceilings. Will definitely be coming back again!

I deeply enjoyed this place. Fantastic customer service. Everyone is very kind and respectful the greatest people ever. Their food is delicious that fill not only your stomach, but also your heart with a touch of warmth. I recommend trying their dishes and visiting.

Dont buy Naan from here to go. It is so small . Two bites Naan and price is same as Regular Naan. Food is not that great also, seems very old food sitting for few days or weeks. Not sure about Grocery prices

I don't understand why people are writing bad reviews on this place, to be honest I came to this store recently a little scared by the reviews. I thought the food and service was going to be bad but turns out very lovely and welcoming people were there to serve me. I ordered a goat biryani and a chicken 65, it took a bit of time to get ready but the quality of food was amazing. reasonable pricing as well. This is proof that recent reviews are just fake people that don't have a life are trying to bring good businesses down. "very bad couple runs business and don't be fooled by fake 5 star reviews" well I can very much tell you that this 5 Star review is VERY real. I don't get why people are negative in this world, this small store deserves more recognition. Try new things out, don't be afraid of fake 1 star reviews.

India Foodie Lounge

727reviews

Nice food and decent choice. Loved the food and drinks. We ordered chicken tikka and veggie pakora. Tikka was spiced up really nicely. Loved the food - Garlic naan, onion Kulcha, chicken curry etc - all were cooked nicely with right level of spices. I have been to India foodie lounge in Bartlet and that was little different with some curries offered in clay pots with lids closed with clay top and tightened with a piece of naan bread. Looks interesting. Not sure they offer here as well. Overall food taste was fantastic in palatine location.

Our party of 3 had a delicious weeknight dinner here and I'll go with 4.5 rounded up to 5 stars. They have a nice corner strip mall location and an open and spacious though somewhat plainish interior. Naga, who is the operating partner here, was our welcoming server and his wife was the chef, so it's a homey and authentic mom and pop operation. We ordered the following: - Tandoori mixed grill which included tandoori chicken, a unique cilantro chicken, and shrimp ($25). The cilantro chicken was moist and delicious and had a bright green color from the cilantro. - Chicken tikka masala, $18. Delicious, but the accompanying white rice was on small side. - Vegetable biryani, $13. This was a particularly generous serving. - Garlic naan, $4 - Onion kulcha (pita bread like), $5 - Kingfisher beer, $6. All in all, we were very happy with our meal and it was a comfortable place to eat at a leisurely pace. The food came out a little on the slow side, but it did start getting busy for the lone chef just as we ordered, and we were in no hurry. Highly recommended, and I hope to return someday to try some other dishes.
