    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.

When you arrive, they will ask for your name and a $10 deposit that will go towards your meal. If you decide to get off of the list on your own, the $10 is non refundable. (No problem) We were seated at a table and it took quite a while for the server (don't know his name) to come to our table. When he did come to the table, he didn't introduce himself and he just stared at us. After a few seconds he says "You ready to order?" I tried to lighten the mood and ask his name and he didn't want to tell me. Ok... We order a few appetizers to start. We also ask a few questions, none of which he was able to understand. (We truly thought there was a language barrier so we extended grace and didn't think much of it) Got the appetizers. They were decent.. but... A group of 4 people sat to the immediate right of us, not only did he great them, he gave them several recommendations for appetizers and entrees. (No language barrier in sight) Was very much friendly and attentive to them. Still never came back to the table but continued to take great care of the tables around us. At this point we decided that it would be best to go somewhere else for entrees. In all of my years of dining out, I have put this on top 3 of my worst experiences. Treat ALL of your customers with the same respect and dignity. We had to flag a random employee down to get our check. Paid in cash and had to flag him down for our change.

The cold gluten salad is a true highlight here, with an impeccable springy texture and an absolutely perfect mix of chili oil and sesame in the seasoning. The flatbread was also a standout, being perfectly crunchy and flavorful alongside a cumin lamb with a good punch. I was less impressed by the hand-pulled noodles. The soup itself was fine, as were the lamb intestines (though I really prefer them grilled). However, for hand-stretched noodles, the noodles were just lacking and missing something. Maybe wheat noodles get better the further west you go, and it just isn't quite Lanzhou style.

I tried the biang biang noodles, but which was a bit bibimbap-esque with the tomato and egg, black bean pork, braised beef, and minced sauce. This was awesome as I love each ingredient individually but normally can't choose between which noodle bow I want. Mixed together, this creates a heavenly flavor of sweet, sour, and umami. The biang biang noodles were thick, chewy and bouncy, and like wider longer belts. The texture was actually so addicting and I devoured my bowl almost instantly. My friend got the Szechuan spicy vermicelli pot with beef, but this needed a bit more flavor and spice. Adding vinegar helped! Our server was super nice and friendly and helped us pack all our leftovers too.

    Brothless Ramen? Sure, why the heck not! This is as far out of my comfort zone as I go, by the way…read more Now, Kajiken may be a chain, but that didn't stop the experience from being mind-blowing. A five-star experience by definition. I'd ordered Homura, and stepped away to wash my hands. Just as I was sitting down, the bowl of hot fresh goodness was placed in front of me. Even when the place was busy, the service remains lighting-quick! friendly and attentive too! As for the bowl, it was absolutely fantastic! Upon mixing, everything went together perfectly. The flavors were tremendously savory and rich, with accents from the egg, seasonings, veggies, and a healthy amount of meat. The noodles were cooked perfectly too! The bowl was perfect as is, and needed nothing. I was worried the bowl would be dry, but this couldn't be farther from the truth, especially with the ladle of liquid on the bottom, everything was perfect! Now, there are various seasonings and flavor enhancers on the table, but they weren't needed, in my opinion. If you do choose to add some, be careful, as some pour fast and heavy! After happily slurping this thing down in record time, I also ordered a single helping of Chashu, as I generally love it and wanted to try. It too was brought to me in no time, and was thin, well balanced, and melted in my mouth. Where it comes to value, the bowl was $13.50, and the slice of chashu was $1.50, IIRC. Great, especially in light of what everything costs nowadays. Final verdict: Kajiken came, and it DELIVERED. Everything from start to finish was top notch, and for a very fair value of $13.50 for a fresh, tasty, and filling bowl of goodness.

Soup dumplings that immediately became the kids' personal obsession. Shu mai that hit every time. BBQ pork buns in every form they offered because obviously. Chinese broccoli to balance out the indulgence. Everything was solid, fresh, and exactly what you want from a dim sum spread. The room was packed and buzzing but the service kept up impressively. Servers were constantly circling, clearing empty plates and dishes without missing a beat. Clean and attentive even at full capacity, which is no small thing. Fair warning if you are bringing little ones: this environment is a lot. The noise, the crowd, the overwhelming parade of food arriving at the table. Our kids loved what they ate but the sensory experience was a bit much for them. This is a place better suited for a group of adventurous adults or older kids who thrive in high energy environments. Prices are great for the quality and quantity of food you get. A Chinatown institution for good reason. Just know what you are walking into and embrace it fully.
