We had the fried egg rolls to start, they had a fried batter on top of them and were delicious with the sauce. We both had Beef Woon Sen, and it was delicious. I added the fish sauce with peppers, and Kevin added sriracha to spice it up. We asked for 1/5. Great service- the chef even came out to ask how the food was and was willing to add spice to it. But we were good. A small place with indoor tables - I can see a table of eight at most fit here. It looks kid friendly, clean bathrooms. read more

This place is a staple for Loyola students like myself. Convenient, delicious, and always kind. I LOVE their green curry and am rarely disappointed when I try something new. read more

Came here around 6pm and were seated immediately. Wish the dishes all came out at the same time so that we didn't have to wait. Flavors were too strong. Noodles were thoroughly coated in the sweet and salty sauce. Overall too heavy. read more

Simply amazing! I've wanted to try this Thai spot for a while and finally ordered some lunch today. I got the chicken pad Thai and it came with three crab rangoons, cucumber salad and a cold beverage. This was such an amazing deal and it was all perfectly portioned. The pad Thai is so flavorful and had that nice bold orange color that I love. I will definitely be ordering from here again. read more

Hello Thai - Chicken pad Thai lunch special with crab Rangoon and cucumber salad. - Thai Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I ordered the chicken pad Thai which was very good. Friendly service and inexpensive meals with large portions.

Chicken fried rice: really crispy chicken katsu. Rice is very moist as well. I enjoyed it Chive dumpling: Same with other chive dumplings with other restaurants nearby. Probably have the same provider? Not traditional Asian chive dumpling. More glutinous dough instead of crispy texture. Flavor's good though Beef curry: chose spicy level 1. Really strong coconut flavor. Lots of meat. Marinated very tender Price is reasonable. Would come back again Crab ragoon: smaller than normal crab ragoon but flavor's good. The small soze make it easy to eat in one bite. Very crispy and a tiny of sweetness read more

First time at Hello Thai. First time with my son, his wife, and their daughter, who is considering attending Loyola University just across the street. Found the food and service to be excellent. Best Thai food I have eaten in recent years. I had been in Thailand 60+ years ago, and again in 2015. Very authentic and fresm-made everything. Best Nom Kha EVER! read more

This place is terrible. I just had the worst Shrimp Tempura, a cloyingly sweet red curry, a garlic-less garlic noodle dish, and overall the chinseist dishes out there. Every aspect of the meal was so underwhelming, it's hard to start where. Flat(literally) tasting Shrimp Tempura over bland refried rice. two eggrolls with ten cents worth of ingredients ($7.00), some ridiculously cloyingly sweet red curry, zero heat, Garlic noodles with no garlic, is that enough? I have tried this place on several occasions, but this was the last straw, not to mention the tiny portions. I wish I could get a refund. Anyone who gives this place a positive review is either lying, friends of the establishment, or doesn't have a clue what Thai food should taste like. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Thank you for a delicious meal and courteous service in a cozy dining room.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We had curry duck and tofu cashew nut with pineapple. So good! A destination! read more

I ordered drunken noodles with stir-fried scrambled egg. They were backed up for half an hour. What finally got delivered, picture here, was drunken noodles with a giant, overcooked fried egg on top. Which would be great, maybe?, If I had ordered a rice dish. Which I didn't. That tellls me no one who actually understands how Thai food works put my order together. We won't be ordering again. read more

I ordered for pickup, and it was ready fairly quickly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small shop with a few tables for dine-in, staff was friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The fried pork belly over fried rice is SO delicious. The rice has great flavor, and the pork is juicy and seasoned. The pad see ew without bean sprouts was made correctly and good but could've had just a little bit more flavor. This place will become part of my rotation, it's very good Thai food and I can't wait to try more! read more

Food is always so delicious. We usually ordered for pick up and the workers are so attentive about getting our ordered ready quickly.

My order was incorrect No one is answering my calls It's order number 19 I want my money back!!!!! read more

I ordered the papaya salad, shrimp tom yum soup, and the beef pad see ew. Since I ordered over $18, I got a free order of crab rangoon. The online ordering system was easy to use and my food was ready fast. The crab rangoon was crispy and had a lot of cream cheese, but no surimi at all, which was kind of expected since this came free with my order. The papaya salad was delicious, fresh, and had a kick to it. The crab rangoon and the salad paired well together. The shrimp tom yum soup came with 3 shrimp, which I thought was great with the straw mushrooms! The flavor of the soup was on point. Lastly, the beef pad see ew was tasty but I wish they had more greens/broccoli, or any veg in there. I asked for hot sauce on the side and they gave me plenty. I noticed that they have a few tables in there so you can dine-in, if you choose. read more

First timer and I can't wait to come back! The food was SO good. I got the amazing Lunch special which includes an appetizer meal and a drink. I ordered an egg roll and red curry with chicken. I ordered peppersteak for my husband to go. All the food was amazing! The owner, Sirinrat, was so friendly and welcoming. The restaurant itself was so cute and quaint. I can't wait to come back and try more things on the menu. I wish they lived closer to me in Logan Square so I could get their food delivered. So delicious! read more

This is by far one of my favorite Thai spots! The service is amazing every single time I go and I basically go every day before work. If you go try the Thai tea its one of my favorites as well as the spicy pad thai omg and if you get there during lunch they give you a cucumber salad and your choice of three crab rangoon's or egg roll omg the besttttttt!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]I love getting the corner table because I end up getting to see the fish that they have in a fish tank so adorable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Most excellent food and flavor at reasonable price points. Working my way thru the menu.... so far the pad kee mao and pad woon sen have been great... excited to try some of their duck dishes, bume noodles and larb!!!!

Hello Thai - Pad See Ew beef Thai Fried Rice with Seasoned Beef - Thai Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Fast delivery and great food quality ! I order from here all the time ! Highly recommended !

Hello Thai's food is consistently tasty with timely delivery. Highly recommend. Eat-in service is also great.

Six of us came for a meal and came away fans. It's a cute little place without a large dining room, but we were able to be seated together. It was a hot day, so we started out with Thai Iced Teas and Iced Coffees - so refreshing and decadent. I got chive dumplings for an appetizer, which I had not had before. Thai chives have a delightful taste (slightly stronger than French chives) and were contained in a pillowy soft dumpling, along with a rich dipping sauce with a wonderful kick. The Pad See Ew with beef was incredible. The noodles had that delicious sweet/salty/umami taste from the caramelized soy sauce that perfectly complemented the tender beef. read more

Veery good quality and portion size. Love the Green Curry. You have the option to customize the "heat level" on most items.

So freakin' good and for a reasonable price. I've ordered here three times and each time I'm 100% happy with everything. Today was the first time I tried their eggrolls. Yaaas. Delicious and I didn't feel like I ate a gallon of oil. I usually gravitate towards their "chicken salad" (larb gai) and it's simply amazing. read more

The best red curry in town, add shrimp for a taste of heaven. Their Pad See Eiw is another favorite.

Nailed it. Just great Thai food just like you'd expect. Probably better than you'd expect. Meals we had among our family included pineapple chicken fried rice, Tom yum soup (click the veggie option as your "meat" and you'll get tons of great veggies), cashew chicken, and Thai fried rice with crispy chicken. The crispy chicken was beautiful. The Tom yum was absolutely delicious. And even though online it said it would take 30+min before it would be ready, they had my to-go order ready in about 10-15min. The lady behind the counter was sweet and friendly. I'd highly recommend. read more

Best tom yum soup I've had in a LONG time! Unfortunately, soup is such a hit or miss at most Thai restaurants, but this was the perfect amount of spicy, limey, and sweet. We also ordered the steamed pot stickers, veggie egg rolls, red and panang curry which were all great. My only complaint was I wish the noodles in the spicy crazy noodles dish were chewier, but the flavor was on point. read more

We live at the intersection of Rogers Park and Edgewater. There are several choices in Thai restaurants. We have tried most of them and they are unsatisfying. When I saw Hello Thai open recently, I was both relieved and apprehensive. Would this restaurant break our bad streak of bad Thai food? I just went there and ordered directly. It seems to be run by a family with kids running around. I ordered their Thai Fried Rice and Egg Rolls. They efficiently put it together and folded the bag with care. I took it home and overall it was a good first step in food that seemed to be made well and tasted what I wanted Thai food to taste like. The one negative is their fortune cookies (which are not Thai) are horrorable. Will move into curry dishes next and may update this review. Give this small place a try. It may be the real deal. read more

The best pad Thai around!! They also have great apps and service highly recommend!!! I have never been disappointed ordering from here !

This is fresh and satisfying Thai food. We love the Panang curry, beef salad, papaya salad, and basil ground chicken, but the veggie egg rolls are also delicious! Love that you can choose degrees of hot and spicy. We are hooked. read more

Driving home from Rogers Park and craving some Thai I took the opportunity to try out a new place. Hello Thai is on my route home to Edgewater and the reviews were pretty good so I gave it a try. First of all, it is less expensive than the other Thai places in the area. Let's see how the quality and flavor compare. I order the pad Thai with shrimp, a peanut sauce and crab Rangoon. I don't believe that that crab rangoon is thai or even Asian for that matter but it's yummy so give me a break . I picked it up 10 minutes later. Great service from friendly lady with her two adorable children. Pretty small so I know not to dine-in in the future. The pad Thai was very good. Generous portion especially given the reasonable price. It is close to Loyola and there were a few Loyola students picking up carry-out so perhaps they keep it affordable for the students. I got it medium spicy. Could have been spicier but I tend to like things spicy so I probably should have ordered it with more spice. It was flavorful with a good portion of shrimp that was well cooked. I can't stand overcooked shrimp. Crab Rangoon was hot and crisp with good crab flavor and sweet sauce. The peanut sauce was as good as any other that I have had. It's a bit farther than my usual Thai place but for the price and the quality of the food, It's worth me driving a bit farther. read more

My friend and I stopped by for a quick bite. We ordered the chive dumplings, pad see ew, and green curry. I wish I took pictures, because the food was presented so beautifully and was just as delicious! As well, the place itself was lovely and clean and the service was 10/10. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved this place! Will definitely be coming back. **Also, the thai iced tea was awesome! I'd rather come here for the $3 thai iced tea than any other $5 boba spot! read more
