Mistakes were made. BYOB Thai place. They don't mention if they are BYOB on their website, so I called and they didn't answer. We dined in and ordered two appetizers and two dinners. We were served one appetizer we did order and one we did not. So I got up and had them correct that, since no service was coming around to ask. All three appetizers we wound up with were very good. Crispy shrimp that was fried-chicken-like, chicken satay with a peanut sauce that had a tang of curry in it, and a mystery rangoon that was well balanced and carefully crafted. Our main courses were American portion large, if not as attention grabbing. No one ever came back around so I tracked down (again) someone to pay. I was presented with the correct check, but charged incorrectly. That took some sorting out. It seemed like I was the first customer they have ever transacted with. They called their CC service provider by phone and had my charge reversed, and finally re-presented me with the correct tab. Not a highly skilled team running this business, but a chef that truly seems to be trying to impress. Then... there were the other guests. We got seated at a booth next to a first-date-train-wreck that loudly, sometimes hilariously spilled over into our experience. Without getting into visceral detail, it was just not an experience I would ever want to repeat, for their sake or ours. Sometimes you wind up judging a place in part by the people who dine there, and today that aspect was in full force. Try getting take out!

06/30/24 - Brand new family run Thai Restaurant in the former location of another Thai Restaurant (The name of the former restaurant is still there). The new owner said it will take 6 months to get the new permit to change the sign. The name of the restaurant is CHUNN THAI CUSINE. This is a small family restaurant w/all hands on deck. The 13yr old son was our server a very nice polite young man. I went here w/my next door neighbor for lunch. The dishes we ordered were both very good. One was the drunken noodles w/fat rice noodle, chicken, broccoli, onions, red & green peppers. The other dish was Thai basil w/ground chicken, red & green peppers. I also ordered a bowl of Tom Kha soup. Please come and try the food of the new Thai restaurant located @ 6247 W Touhy in the place of the former Thai restaurant.

Thai Tacos (ground chicken)

I really love this place! I come here all the time: it's my go-to Thai restaurant in Skokie. Everything I've tried here is good, the service is great, the workers are super friendly, and the place itself is nice and cozy. Noodles, curry, rice, stir fry, appetizers, iced [milk] teas, and coffee, I've tried it all and it's honestly all really good! my one note (not a complaint, just a note) is that the spicy jump from Mild to Medium is way too high for my spice intolerat palate . I wish there was a "less spicy" option that had just a little bit of spice, instead of having to choose between No Spice and Rather Spicy. anyways love this place, 10/10

Food: delicious! We enjoyed our Panang Curry, as well as the Drunken Noodle. The presentation and preparation were careful with both dishes. They can be ordered with tofu or mock duck, which made us happy. The spice levels hit the mark as well: we asked for medium and that's what we got. Service: very friendly and welcoming, nice! Home away from home! Ambiance: casual, but enjoyable and not pretentious Random note: it's directly across the street from the Seventh Wonder of the World (of Illinois), the Leaning Tower of Niles. Behold the wonder. We'll be back!

Cashew Chicken
Sara C.

This was by far some of the worst Thai food I've ever eaten. It was inedible. We ordered Cashew Chicken, which had a strange burnt wok mixed with vinegar flavor and the chicken was so spongy and greasy. Our chicken pad Thai was mushy. My Tom Yum soup was grossly oily. Sticky rice was oily and disgusting. I had to toss everything.

Ambiance - neighborhood gem, casual, offers small dine in area…read more Service - order at kiosk upon arrival, self serve, pick up food at counter Food - pho broth was aromatic, sliced beef was slightly different than what I'm used to (it was marinated, not the typical rare un-marinated sliced beef)

5 stars based on Bahn mi, cha gio and iced coffee I ordered today…read more I must have been part of an early crowd. When I arrived, there was only one other table dining, which made it GREAT for me. It's a decent size hall with 10+ table arrangements, making it pretty great for a group to enjoy their lunch. It also featured a couple of kiosks for ordering, which I thought was a bit easy to miss, since it was tucked away in the left corner when you walked in. It looked like there was also a cashier available to take orders, if you miss the kiosks. I've seen places where they simply do not have anyone at the register to take orders, but that wasn't the case for Lotus. Before deciding to visit them today, I had an impression that their menu choices were very limited compared to other Vietnamese restaurants I was used to. I'm certainly not complaining, since I'm usually a huge fan of select "specialty" approach in restaurants. That's why I decided to order one of their Bahn mi, where I normally would have chosen pho for my first visit. And it didn't disappoint. First off, the size of the sandwich was good. I've had it where they charged a buck or two less, but they weren't big enough to be a full "lunch" portion. Lotus' size, I thought was decent. I had ordered one of their cha gios just in case the sandwich failed to fill me, but I think I would have been okay without it. Cha gio was super good tho! Oh, and the iced V-coffee was good, too. Typically, they'll bring out the coffee before your meal is ready, probably because they're ready-made in the morning and all you'd need to do is pour them over ice. I of course, have known legitimate mom n' pop places, where they'll actually bring out coffee as it's brewing in Phin (stainless steel coffee filter) and a glass of ice with condensed milk, so you can wait for the coffee to finish brewing and pour yourself one, which is what I *always* prefer. Not here, but no big deal. You can usually tell how good the food is going to be by trying their iced coffee. Even though V-coffee isn't known for using "incredible" beans, the balance of the strength of coffee and condensed milk *does* make a big difference in your experience. I felt this place had it correct! I'll definitely come back myself and even bring coworkers or my family to have their Bahn mi again. What I'm not sure about is whether I want to try their pho or bun. First, they don't offer too many variations, so I'm stuck choosing from just a few. (For example, I usually go for "brisket-only" or a combo of brisket and rare steak, but they didn't seem to have those options. Granted, it's possible they'll make it happen if I asked) Secondly, I think they're a couple bucks more expensive than what I would like to pay for a bowl of pho. We'll see.

Very welcoming and attentive, but then again it's a hidden little ramen spot where everyone's huddled up at a bar pretty much lol The food was absolutely delicious! I got their signature ramen and the pork just melted in your mouth. Noodles were 10/10, broth even better.! Will be coming back for sure. Hopefully we have a similar experience with waiting and dining

I never leave negative reviews, but this experience was unacceptable. On 7/18/2026 at approximately…read more9:30pm-9-45pm My friend and I were waiting for our ramen, we watched one of the kitchen staff check the noodles by reaching into the bowl with his bare fingers, pulling out some noodles, and putting them directly into his mouth to taste them. Then wiped his fingers on a dirty rag and proceeded to finish making the bowls. A short time later, we were served that same bowl of ramen. Watching an employee use their bare hands and mouth on food that was then served to a customer was extremely concerning and completely unacceptable from a food safety and hygiene standpoint. It ruined the experience and made us lose confidence in the restaurant's food handling practices. I hope management takes this seriously, retrains their staff on proper food safety procedures, and ensures this doesn't happen to anyone else.
