In Short – While Spoon Thai does a great deal of takeout and delivery, the atmosphere is pleasant for dine-in. Stick to Thai specialties for a first-class meal. Top appetizers include shrimp in a blanket--plump, skewered shrimp wrapped in won ton skins and deep-fried--and satay chicken served with peanut sauce and cucumber salad. Pad thai is on the mild side, but can be made spicier. Curry dishes with vegetables, chicken and beef are also favorites.

The Extras:
It may not always be on the menu, but isaan, a specialty dish of well-spiced, round pork sausage links, is always available--just ask.

Spoon Thai, on Western Ave.

by lunchdater at Citysearch

Somewhat authentic Thai from what I can tell. But these people need to seriously change the cooking oil in their deep fryer. And a bit pricey considering the portions. I gave them a chance but was pretty disappointed on both visits.

If you're looking for the real thing, this is not it.

by Illini09 at Citysearch

The place is clean and you can bring your own drink. Very cool! However, Thai food is know for a lot of different sweet and sour sauces/curries. All the dishes I tried were a lot more sweet, than a good combination of the both. I will keep on searching for the real thing.

  • Pros: Clean
  • Cons: Not real Thai food
