    Food is tasty and authentic. Service is quick and efficient. Love casual dining atmosphere. The best somtum aka papaya salad in town so far lol

    Stopped in sunday evening for dinner and were sat right away on the patio. Our waitress was super attentive and quick to see if we needed anything throughout our time there. Got a few apps - the vegetable egg rolls were crispy, the cucumber salad had a good bite, and the Larb salad was fresh and a great portion though a bit too much fish sauce for my personal liking (though my parents both really liked it!). I had Pad See Eiw with chicken and broccoli and it was large enough for at least another meals worth of leftovers! Really fresh food at good prices - would visit again!

    The restaurant is called Immm, which means "full" in Thai, but ironically the portions are so small that you definitely won't leave feeling immm. The food itself is delicious and full of flavor, but the portion sizes are quite disappointing, especially for the price. If they increased the portions, the overall dining experience would be much better.

    I found 2 pieces of string inside the rice and for some reason the rice was salty. The mangoes had so much fiber I couldn't even chew it. If the mangoes aren't in season, this shouldn't be on the menu.

    Beef drunken noodles
    Insia Z.

    Wow this place was so yummy, super fresh and bright beef drunken noodles, would definitely get them again. Loved the lil coconut rice puddings. The chicken spring rolls were good but miss-able. Can't wait to come back. Excellent service and very cute vibes (lots of pics of the food which was helpful)

    Papaya salad
    Michelle W.

    Best thai food Chicago! The service is fast and food is served quickly. The space is comfortable to dine in as well. Parking needs to be paid parking however on the street. My favorite item to order is their crispy chicken skin and Khao soi. They both have the perfect crunch to it and the portion is good. I always have extras to take home.

    This place is right in the heart or Arglye and has such good Thai food. Loved their papaya salad and chow fun noodles. The tiger cry was crispy and full of flavor. The service was great here and the ambiance inside was really nice. Especially during the summer you can sit by the window which is open to the sidewalk. Will definitely be back soon.

    chicken pad see ew
    Emily C.

    Great Thai takeout option. The pad see ew was super tasty. Could've used more veggies but overall no complaints

    BAMEE MHOO DANG HANG WITH SHRIMP WONTONS
    Em K.

    Had a great experience at Imm Rice and Beyond! I got the Bamee Mhoo Dang Hang with the shrimp wontons added on, and it was a flavorful, satisfying meal. I'm really glad I added the shrimp wontons as they were delicious and complemented the dish perfectly. The service was excellent and attentive throughout. Solid spot for authentic Thai flavors. Would definitely come back!

    You get friendly service, for sure, as it is obvious that the workers there enjoy their job. The interior decor is very catchy, even cute. Restrooms are what you'd expect at an Asian restaurant, but not bad. But we go to a restaurant to eat good, flavorful food, right? It was quite ordinary, to be honest; nothing to match the trendiness of the interior environment. I'm willing to give any place a second chance. So, maybe we will do just that!

    A nice, warm restaurant with a variety of authentic dishes. We got the chicken satay, gaeng kiew whan with tofu, and pad prik khing with chicken. The chicken satay with peanut sauce was really good and was a nice starter. The gaeng kiew whan was flavorful and somewhat spicy. There was a good amount of tofu, but I felt like there should have been more than just bamboo shoots in the curry. The pad prik khing was also tasty and pretty spicy. The green beans were a generous portion, but it would've been nice to have more chicken too. Chose the kao tom madt for dessert and it was actually really enjoyable. You wouldn't think beans would work with dessert, but they gave it a nice texture.

    Ginger Chicken and Thai iced tea, fried chicken way in the back
    Amanda G.

    I had a very nice ladies lunch here. Cabana vibes, with the front of the cafe able to open up to the street. Lots of sun, creative cocktails, and more delicious sounding menu items than I had room for, may need a return visit. That said, this street is bustling with options and shops, cafes so how do you pick just one place? It stood out to me that with so many competitors, Immm was jumping! Very good sign. I had a Thai iced tea (sweet burnt orange colored tea, a personal favorite!! Always get excited when they're on the menu) and I was looking for a light, veggie forward option and bet on the ginger chicken. My friends both got the Panang Curry, it had a notable butteriness to it that you don't find often and, hot damn, it was spicy for this group of white chicks! Not sure how that translates for other heat seekers though. ‍

    Chicken Satay
    Anna N.

    The market got rained out so we wanted to grab a bite to eat. We came across this cute little spot and the colorful art and lively vibe lured us in. We were seated very quickly despite how busy it appeared. I recommend ordering 2-3 entrees to share amongst the table, depending on how many are seated. There were only two of us and 2 plates + a starter was a perfect amount of food. Thai tea was delicious. Perfect amount of sweet with that authentic tea flavor. The chicken kabob was a little dry, but better with the peanut sauce (which has a HEAVY peanut flavor, so take that as you will). I wish it came with more cucumber salad! We also ordered the Thai style fried chicken legs. The flavor was delicious but there was a lot of bone to eat around, and not a ton of meat on each one. The deep fried wontons are delicious and I highly suggest getting at least one order of those. Service was fairly quick (for how busy it was) and friendly, and we were in and out in no time.

    Can I get really really spicy Thai food at Immm? If not, where can one find that in chicago?

    You can get really spicy at Immm also Sticky Rice and Aroi Thai. Not your usual commercial Thai food/menus in these places but Northern Thai food (Isaan province)

Indeed, this spot did not let me down! It is a small Thai restaurant in West Loop, with a large menu featuring monthly specials and quite a few dishes I rarely find in other Thai restaurants in U.S. For food, we ordered the following: 1. Khao Ka Moo: a stewed pork hock platter served with rice, pickled mustard greens, shitake mushrooms, sauce (similar to soy-sauce) and egg (which I opted out). It was my first time to have pork hock in a Thai restaurant. The meat was juicy and the skin was mouth-melting. Highly recommended. 2. JJ Tiger Cry: Basically grilled ribeye served with Thai style sides. The ribeye was cooked at ~medium well. I wish it could be a fattier cut and cooked for a shorter time, but my friend thought the temp. was perfect for her. It was served with a Thai sauce and cabbage+carrot slaw. 3. Green Curry Chicken: my sister's entree. The curry tasted refreshing and flavorful. It was also great that the dish came with both rice noodles and jasmine rice, so you can try both of them -- indeed, the rice noodles, after soaking it in the green curry, tasted heavenly! 4. Yum Hed. Grilled mushroom salad. There were shitake and king oyster mushroom. Served over a bed of fresh lettuce and a kind of spciy, sour sauce. Great as a side. 5. Guay Tiew Tom Tum Koong: Shrimp and rice noodles served in a generous bowl of Tom Yum Soup. It also had much veg. Unfortunately, I am allergic to some seafood so for safety I did not try this dish. Overall, the dishes are of medium sizes, but definitely enough for us. Service was friendly and quick. I may try more dishes the next time I visit Chicago.

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.

(Unfortunately, the sidewdalk is sloped, so the tables are sloped.) C and I order shumai, which in my experience, is served as an appetizer. Our order didn't arrive until after the main course was served. (Note to self: Next time order the main course after the appetizer has been served.) Cuisine: 4 stars - We ordered Basil Rice, to share. The flavor was different than what I have been served elsewhere. More sour than sweet. I think a better balance between sour and sweet would be better. Also, elsewhere, the rice and ground chicken are served tossed together. Here, the rice and chicken arrive on separate plates. It's difficult to mix sticky rice and chicken on a flat place. Nevertheless, the meal was completely acceptable; just a bit different. Service: 4 stars - The server was polite and friendly. Ambiance: 4 stars - We dined outside, but the interior looks nice. It's really nice to find a Thai restaurant with outdoor seating. What to know: It's BYOB (a plus) and does not accept card; only cash. For me, that's also a plus. Would I return? Yes.
