    5 Piece Crab Rangoon
    Dominic E.

    I recently ordered takeout from Bree Thai while staying at a close by hotel to fly out of Midway the next morning. I'm glad to have found this as the food was really good! I tried the Crab Rangoon, Wonton Soup, and Larb Salad. The Crab Rangoon was good. While each piece could have used more filling, the filling was delicious and tasted of real crab. If it was indeed real crab, I can understand the carefully metered filling within each Rangoon. They were nicely fried and even after being packed and driven back to my hotel, they were still crisp and crunchy. The Wonton Soup was a warm delight in the cold (to me) Chicago weather. The broth was so warm, hearty, and flavorful. It really warmed me up while tasting exquisitely. The dumplings within the soup were generously filled with a great seasoned meat and veggie mix. I would order this every time. The larb gai (chicken) salad was ok. The chicken was bit on the dry side (even though it was in a highly flavored sauce. The chicken, red onions, carrots, and scallions, plus the sauce tasted great all together and was spiced perfectly. It was not too spicy but gave off the perfect amount of heat. I would definitely order from here again when staying overnight to fly out of Midway.

    Place is small but good

    The service was excellent. The restaurant is very small with only 5 tables. The food was decent. The basil chicken dish that everyone is raving about, wasn't as amazing as I was expecting. This place non the less deserves a visit if you have never been before. Good little spot for the neighborhood.

    We used to live near here and go often. After revisiting after years we were happy to see things haven't changed; it's still a great Thai place to eat! The Chicken Basil is excellent. The Fried lemon chicken is about the crispiest chicken you could ever eat. If you have a kid, order them this as it's got a simple elevated "chicken nugget" flavor they'll love. The coconut panang curry is also great. And don't leave without trying a mango sticky rice. There is nothing like this dessert anywhere in Chicago that I'm aware of. Service is great and the place is small but clean and has nice ambiance. We'll definitely be back!

    Thai Southern Fried Rice

    My mom and I stopped here after we flew into midway airport. Needed food and to kill some time. The service here is absolutely incredible and kind. Quick, speedy, and the food is amazing. Best crab rangoons and Thai coffee I've ever had. You get your bang for your buck. Not many places to sit, seems to be more of a take out type of deal, but we came in with our suitcases and they immediately accommodated us! Highly recommend and would stop here again!

    Inside restaurant

    Close to midway airport ! Super cute and clean inside . Just a few tables , they do tons of Carry out ! Staff is super friendly , and helpful with the menu . I met a friend here for lunch as he had a 2 hour layover at midway and the location and timing was perfect . Tons of vegetarian and vegan options . We had veggie curry , stir fry veggies and Thai iced tea .

    Fresh Spring Rolls
    Kyle V.

    We stopped in for a late dinner and were instantly greeted and chose a table. The staff was very friendly and responsive throughout our dinner. We started with spring rolls and crab rangoon and it was crazy how fast they came out. The crab rangoon was definitely our favorite of the two but we enjoyed both. The spring rolls were unlike any I've had in the past and we couldn't quite determine why. They have a unique taste but the portion was perfect to share. For my entree, I had Pad Thai with chicken. They also give you a cup of their homemade hot sauce which was a great addition. The amount of meat in the dish was fantastic and the portion size was perfect. I prefer my Pad Thai slightly drier with less sauce but I still enjoyed it. Overall, small little restaurant that shouldn't be judged from the outside!

    Pad See Ew
    Samantha C.

    We were hungry after our flight and found this place nearby. I got the pad see ew lunch special and it comes with soup. The soup was tomato-based and filled with a variety of veggies. Think HK café style soup!! I really enjoyed the pad see ew! The portions may look small, but it's actually pretty filling. A solid Thai place next to the airport!

    Instantly one of my new favorite restaurants in Chicago. And probably one of my favorite Thai…read morerestaurants of all time. As a street food spot that's popular for lunch, you get different offerings here than a lot of your other neighborhood Thai joints. Sat on the outdoor patio so didn't get to see the inside much but I liked our atmosphere and service. Split the papaya salad and the Laab Moo Krob (crispy pork belly salad) with a friend and both were outstanding. From the first crispy bite of the pork belly I was in love with the texture and flavors. We added a side of sticky rice with that which was perfect. I wish I could've tried everything on the menu that day but looks like I'll just have to return as soon as possible.

Our server took our order and our food came out less than 15 minutes after. SP1 CRAB MEAT FRIED RICE - 25 The fried rice came in a claypot and came with a good amount of grab meat. The flavors were pretty light -- I would have preferred a bit more seasoning or umami. The portion size is large. R10 HALF & HALF CHICKEN WITH GINGER RICE - 19 We wanted to try both the breaded fried chicken and poached chicken so we ordered the half & half option. The fried chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy. I loved dipping it in the sweet & tart plum sauce on the side. However, the poached chicken was really dry and unappetizing, and I know a good poached chicken is supposed to taste fresh and juicy. The ginger-garlic rice was pretty light in seasoning, but delicious nonetheless. Both of our entrees were incredibly clean tasting -- not too greasy, and it didn't hurt my stomach after eating. I enjoyed both of the dishes we tried with the exception of the poached chicken which was way too over-cooked.

The food was completely underwhelming, and when we shared our concerns with the staff, nothing was done to address them. The service was equally disappointing. Our server spent much of the time sitting on her phone while we waited for basic service like water refills, being asked about drinks, and receiving the drinks we ordered. We repeatedly had to get up and find someone just to receive attention. As for the food, the gyoza was bland and tasted like unseasoned pork. The lemongrass beef stew curry, which was highly recommended, arrived cold, had an odd texture, and lacked any real flavor. Most shocking of all were the drunken noodles. I've ordered them countless times over the years and always considered them among the best in Chicago. This time, I couldn't get past a single bite. Every dish was left unfinished. We didn't finish a single plate and didn't take any leftovers home--something that never happens for us. Between the poor service and incredibly disappointing food, this was an awful dining experience from start to finish. Unfortunately, after being a longtime customer, I won't be returning.
