No matter the order, all the food comes out delicious, hot, and fast. They have THE BEST pot stickers (if you like a thick wonton), and though tofu is not top of the list of my orders at other places, I somehow always end up ordering the mapo tofu every time I'm here. The servers are also super efficient and kind, and the overall vibe is very cozy and comfort foods and like I'm being taken care of by family members. The restaurant is also attached to a boba tea shop that also has a wide selection of drinkable yums, so there's literally something for everyone. Cost is on-par as well. Lastly, being able to support local is always a plus.

My husband asked me where I wanted to eat for my 43rd birthday and I was craving Vietnamese but…read morewanted to find a new place. I looked up highly rated Vietnamese restaurants and found Tasty House 1 in Carol Stream. This place is everything we anticipated it to be. The location is nice and has parking in front, inside is super spacious and had a relaxing and breathable ambiance. We ordered a family appetizer platter that came with all the delicious Vietnamese appetizers like: spring rolls, bbq marinated meat, fried eggrolls, grilled jumbo shrimp, meat wrapped in betel leaf, lettuce, noodles, cucumbers, cabbage, tomatoes, daikon, jalapeños, two dipping sauces: peanut butter hoisin and Vietnamese fish sauce. Another appetizer we got separately was the fried calamari which had a great crunchy texture, the absolute best! For our entrees I decided to build my own pho and chose tripe, rib eye steak and quail eggs. My husband got the spicy beef noodle soup (Bun Bo Hue). This is honestly the best Vietnamese we've ever had in our lives!!!! I'm so glad I found this place. Awesome service, food and atmosphere. Zero complaints everything was very fresh and perfect. Our hearts left super happy.

There is a separate vegan menu with half a dozen things on it, and other than the drinks and desserts, pretty much nothing on the regular menu is vegetarian. (The papaya salad, which is on the vegan menu, is a ringer: it contains fish sauce.) You've got your choice of various fruit lemonades, bubble teas, popping bubble teas, jellies, etc. Desserts include flan, Vietnamese yogurt, coconut jelly - none of which you'll be eating onsite as you'll be too full after your entree. Portions are on the large side - even the papaya salad is a meal. I got the peach lemonade, vegetable spring rolls and the tofu, vegetable and noodles, which turned out to be a soup, basically Vietnamese ramen. The spring rolls are tasty and come with peanut sauce; the vegetable broth was savory with lots of baby bok choy, plenty of noodles and cubes of fried tofu - it was even better with some of the homemade hot sauce, which I highly recommend. The lemonade comes in a bubble tea disposable cup and contains tiny pieces of fruit - very fruity, not very citrusy. Service was friendly and very personable, which helps if you're serving 16 people. All of whom were happy.

The inside is a mess of random literal stuff (emory boards and piñatas??). None of the 4 menu screens work. There is one POS system and a brunch of printed menus scattered around without any organization. Nothing appears to be made in-house. The bubble teas all come from mixes. I will say even though I did not get the Korean corn dog I ordered, the one I got was edible. However, the inside was overcooked and it fell in my lap because the stick was ineffective. Not worth a stop unless you are desperate. The ownership obviously doesn't care, why should I?

Tried out Chi Tea in Schaumburg after seeing some positive Yelp reviews. My first impression was…read morethat the inside is laid out a bit odd. The entry is super spacious then dining area completely to the side. There is both an ordering counter and kiosk which has menu item photos (super helpful!). The pricing all across the board seemed a bit high. I got the burger slider, my fiancé a spicy chicken slider, and we split a fry. There isn't complimentary water so we had to pay for that as well. We took a seat to wait for the food and immediately noticed a smell from the cleaner they use to wipe the tables; for sure musty smell. Our food didn't take too long and we really enjoyed everything we got. It was a bit messy so we washed our hands before leaving. The bathrooms were not clean with dirt and dust in the corners and sink with hair in it. The individual working the counter clearly was sitting on his phone when no one was ordering or in the back kitchen at points leaving no staff member visible to guests. This also wasn't ideal in my mind. If reviews were solely based on food, this would be another story. Sadly while the food was good, my overall experience wasn't ideal. I now understand the mixed reviews. I would maybe carry out only in the future.

We ordered and tried the following: 1) Shrimp egg rolls 2) Tofu banh bao 3) Small pho, beef broth, brisket, beef meatballs - We specifically order the pho for my girls and they both finished it without a single drop of broth left. 4) Small pho, vegan broth, tofu and mushrooms - Most Vietnamese restaurants do not have a vegan broth option. My mom is a vegetarian so this was definitely a surprise and ideal option! 5) Bun Dau Mam Tom - This can be a mess to wrap the fried tofu, steamed pork, rice noodles, and shrimp paste in lettuce. Everything went well together and the shrimp paste has a slight kick to it. 6) Soft shell crab fried rice - The soft shell crab is crunchy and came with a generous portion of fried rice. We had plenty of fried rice left. 7) Vietnamese iced coffee - My parents generally prefer the Vietnamese coffee hot however Pholicious only serves them cold. 8) Egg coffee - Rich and creamy! We did not try the banh mi but we did buy a bag of freshly baked baguettes to go. Each bag comes with three baguettes. If you buy one bag, it is $3. However, if you buy two bags, it is cheaper at $5. The baguettes held up really well for our home-made sandwiches.

Service was quick, the smoothies were well made, and I'd definitely come back when I'm in the mood for a healthy drink.

I'm writing this review primarily to show the public the truth behind this specific location and…read moreencourage anyone who has ever thought about coming here to avoid it at all costs. I have been here on multiple occasions and have even gotten to know some of the works by name. There is one employee in particular who consistently has ruined orders or blatantly gives constant attitude to guests who enter this location, on top of that, I have seen on multiple occasions where this employee does not seem to understand basic hygiene, they have picked their nose and rarely washes their hands or uses gloves, is constantly on her phone and argues with whoever she is on the phone with and openly flirts with customers to receive tips. I'm surprised management has not addressed this problem. But the management and leadership team also has their own problems, I have heard multiple stories of this specific location refusing to hire any male employees based on the belief that "men are too slow". They constantly discriminate against males who apply for the job when they are desperately in need of new workers. This smoothie king location is an absolute train wreck and needs to be reported for their multitude of dilemmas.
