    Amazing Thai food that brings me back to Bangkok instantly (well Krung Thep is another name of Bangkok). I like Thai place when they do not compromise the kicking and killing flavor of Thai cuisine. This place delivers! The must to order is Tum Pa or the everything papaya salad. The mix of traditional som tam (papaya salad) with plenty of nutty, crispy, and salty toppings makes it fun and flavor boosted. Other dishes are amazing too! The dessert, Ka Nom Tua, is very authentic. We even forgot to take a photo lol. My friend loved it so much that he visited there again after I left Chicago.

    This place is a very popular destination and for a reason. It is small with a little feel of authenticity inside but food is beautifully served and delicious. I have seen many times people from Thailand who were eating there and it is a good sign. This place will not fail your expectations. Enjoy!

    Good Thai option in Boys Town and they stayed open pretty late. I thought the dishes we ordered were delicious. After our meal, we noticed that there was another menu written in Thai. I wished we knew. I would love to try dishes on that menu! Perhaps, I can try it the next time I'm in Chicago.

    I’ve dreamt of returning to Krung Thep since dining 5 years ago. I recall their Pad Cha Catfish had the finger root herb that many Thai restaurant would skimp on. This root as well as Thai eggplant is the differentiator I use to assess the authencity.

    One of my favorite Thai restaurants which I ordered from multiple times. Papaya salad was nice and spicy, loved the wings, egg rolls were just fine, Pad Thai was great, Curry is great (tried the Massaman and red) with rice or with crispy noodles, the one dessert they have (coconut Thai custard) wasn't to my liking at all (doesn't taste anything like coconut).

    The overall dining experience was decent, although I've had better Thai food in Chicago. The Beef Salad had a refreshing flavor and a delightful spicy kick. On the other hand, the Grilled Squid leaned towards the drier side, although it might appeal to those who enjoy a charred taste. The Black Pepper Catfish was quite flavorful. The meal, while enjoyable, didn't feel outstanding in terms of flavor. The restaurant also felt a bit snug and not the most spacious inside.

    Tucked away in Lakeview, this cute little Thai place turned out to be so good! We ordered the chicken massaman curry and fish ball green curry and both of them were so flavorful and yummy! Did have a tiny bit of wait time on a Monday evening, the place seems to have waves of really full and kinda empty. Will probably come back to try other things on their menu and would definitely recommend!

    One of my favorite Thai restaurant in Chicago. Located in Boystown. Authentic Thai northern style food that reminds me when I live in Chiang mai, Thailand. Staffs are so friendly and fun. Always get a warm welcoming every time I visit. Recommend Tom-Sab soup and all Thai spicy salad.

    I came here at a friend’s recommendation and I absolutely love it. Great delicious bold thai flavors and decent pricing and service. We ordered: - thai iced tea (good) - special pad thai (delicious, love it) - khao soy soup (best thing ever, addicted, deep flavors of seafood and cream coconut) - boat noodle soup (my first time trying this dish, strong flavor of beef, slight sour, and varies parts including liver) On cold days, it’s pretty cold inside the restaurant (especially when many enters and exits) so sit away from windows and keep your jacket on. The restaurant can try having a curtain at the door to maintain heat or raise the thermostat (we requested but no luck).

    I’m Thai! Ordered via UberEats and the Pad See Eiw didn’t disappoint. Always my comfort food and they kindly followed my special request for my dish.

    Krung Thep Thai Cuisine is a delicious and fun restaurant. The atmosphere is laid back with good music and clean. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The chicken satay is amazing. The curry is also tasty. We had the panang and the green curry. Also a catfish dish that was tasty. Lots of apps. Good edamame and summer rolls. Overall, great value for the price and a fun time.

    This is a solid Thai restaurant near the hotel and I highly recommend it. They make all the classics perfectly. The vegetable spring rolls were delicious, as were the mooping, pad kee mow and massaman curry. All were solid and delicious. The Thai ice teas were perfect - not too sweet which is a common flaw with them at many places.

  • 5/5 David H. 2 years ago on Google
    The food is delicious and stands out among other thai places. The sauce is just so thick and flavorful. I got a curry and a pad Thai to try both. Be sure you can handle spice for some of the dishes. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for Thai options.

  • 5/5 Binish L. 1 year ago on Google
    I have never tried Thai food. Came here and was blown by the beautiful plate of food and it was delicious. We arrived at 6 pm and was done by 6:50 pm. The food arrived very fast and was piping hot. Will definitely recommend this place. Thank you for the delicious meal.

    I was sent here by a Thai intern at our office. She told me it was almost like eating back home. It's delicious. Small place but quick service and it's BYOB.

  • 4/5 Cherdsak 10 months ago on Google
    Authentic Thai restaurant. Reasonable price. Sometimes, the taste of your food is different than last time, depending on who is working on that day. Lol. Always get busy. The place is too small, not many tables. Call them before you go, otherwise you have to wait to get a table. No vegan/vegetarian options.

  • 5/5 Soumya T. 2 years ago on Google
    Exceptionally good food,great taste and awesome service for reasonable price. Got the pot stickers, chicken satay and the boat noodles.Soul food for a cold night. We also,ordered the Thai coconut custard excepting something like a flan,but what we got was a surprise savory dessert.Worth the try for a dessert which we usually don't go for.
