In Short
Three simple rooms look out at Western Avenue from this storefront Thai spot, where wood carvings and portraits of Thai royalty gaze down at the families and groups of 20-somethings enjoying enormous Thai platters below. Menu choices consist of more than 100 appetizers, soups, salads, noodle dishes, curries and seafood dishes. Loyalist favorites include the oversized crab rangoon starter and the created-for-customers Peanut Sauce Lover, which overflows with cashews, onion and hot peppers.

This place is in a location where you have PLENTY of thai places to choose from. Overall, I'd say this one has the best and most authentic food. Unfortunately, the service is TERRIBLE. The people who work there are for the most part unhelpful, and several are downright rude. It almost seems like they don't even care if you give them your business or not. My advice: don't miss out on the great food, but get it to go.

My husband and I have been dining there regularly or getting carry-out for the last 17 years. Great food?????? though service rather snobby, chilly to cold. Better to order out. Portions a tad small for the money. Good shu-mai, satay and Pad prik chicken. Very put-off by the service. I have to wonder how they keep an in-house clientelle at this rate...

To me, there are very few places in Chicago that offer "good" Thai cuisine. Some places I've seen offer you a box of noodles or rice, throw in some meat and vegetables and sauce (along with a almost a half a cup of oil), and them calling it Thai food. It's NOT the case with this place. I've been going here since 98 when I was taking class from the "Martial Arts" school down the street and the "grandmaster" took us all to lunch as part of our "training" (notice the " " around the words; I don't consider them a "Martial Arts school" anymore, but that's another review). Anyway, since then I've always considered this place to be the standard for all Thai restaurants to follow. They just recently went through some remodeling and now the place looks better than before with new tabels and decor. The food though is still the same as I had it almost 9 years ago. Everything is good here, but I usually go for my favorites (chicken satay, spring roll, Tom Yum soup, Pad Thai, and/or beef Pad Si-ew). It is convient to get to as well being right at the Western brown line station and a metered parking lot accross the street. Don't let the exterior of the place fool you; once you step into the place, be ready to experience what Thai cuisine is all about.
