    60. Gaeng Panang 3. Crab Rangoon (8)
    Bethany M.

    Ordered for takeout out and it is one of the best new to me restaurants I've tried in a while. The panang curry is incredible and I would suggest upsizing to a large rice. The pad see lew and tiger cry were both flavorful and great portioned sized. Their crab Rangoons are also the best I've found in a while. Since this was to go I cannot comment on the service or ambiance but will be ordering from here again soon

    We always order takeout of Noble Thai! The crying tiger and chicken wings are a must for us. The dishes are delicious on their own but even more elevated with the sauces that come with them. The pad Thai and the pad see-iew were pretty standard.

    Wow, this seems like a cute neighborhood spot :) They're always busy with takeout orders in the front. When you walk in, you're surprised by the spacious dining area. It feels a bit like a university dining hall with the way the tables are set up. I loved how relaxed it felt. What we ordered: - Papaya Salad: The citrusy flavor really opened my appetite. Loved this! - Tiger Cry: Can't go wrong with this. The marinated beef was so flavorful. - Fried Chicken Wings: Essentially salt and pepper chicken. Not bad but a bit basic. I'd try something else on the menu next time. - Pad Thai: They really crushed it! Sweet, savory, and sour ~ all the flavors meshed perfectly.

    The ambiance and decoration inside is so nice. We were seated pretty quickly and the service was great. I would say their tiger cry was really good so tender and filled with so much flavors. I also like their pad Thai, other places it is soggy but this place made it really good, wished there was bean sprouts on side rather than cabbage. The khao soy was good and had the right amount of spices the way you ask them. It was so creamy. They also offer drinks like cocktails and they have a happy hour as well, but we got their Thai iced tea and it was good.

    Great Thai spot in West Town to visit or take out. The Panang curry and pad Thai are great dishes, give them a try Pro tip: try the crab rangoon you won't be disappointed!

    42. Kuay Tiew Kee Mao w/ beef
    Jose C.

    We did takeout from Noble Thai. My order was ready before the promised time. The inside did look very upscale for a Thai restaurant. Which was nice to see and the staff was great as well. We order their Pad See-Iew with chicken and Kuay Tiew Kee Mao with beef. Both dishes were delicious. Lately Thai has been a hit or miss for some odd reason, but Noble Thai was a good pick. The Kee Mao was spicy and the beef was very tender. The noodles were cooked perfectly. We also ordered their Mango Sticky Rice. This was also good and available for a fair price. Overall we were really satisfied with Noble Thai and will definitely consider returning.

    This place has such a cute ambiance and really liked how the service was quick. The food came out in a timely manner and really enjoyed their pad thai which was not at all soggy like other places. Their tiger cry was so good with a side of dipping sauce. Their Thai tea was also good and you can see the cream.

    Noble Thai was an absolute treat! I'd go so far as to say it's some of the best Thai food in the city--and the prices are refreshingly reasonable. I made a reservation for a Thursday night, and it wasn't too busy, which made for a relaxed dining experience. We kicked things off with two cocktails that were both tasty and well-priced. For our appetizer, we chose the Chicken Satay--and wow, the peanut sauce it came with was so good I could've honestly sipped it like a drink! For our entrees, we ordered the Gaeng Masaman and the Gaeng Pet Ped. While the Gaeng Masaman didn't have quite as much flavor as I had hoped, the Gaeng Pet Ped absolutely delivered--it was rich, aromatic, and everything you want in a great curry dish. The portions were generous enough that we needed takeout containers. We'll definitely be back next time we're on that side of town!

    Yum yum yummy! What an AMAZING place. We went around 4:30p and were seated immediately as the place was empty. I actually loved that because it was peaceful especially with their decor - it's so well thought out. We ordered what is pictured + chicken pad thai (not pictured). Everything was excellent! Different flavor profiles that just all make sense. Their sauces and spices are soo good I wish I could take some home lol This has easily become my favorite Thai spot in Chicago. Just go!

    30. Pad Paak Roum Mit with chicken and 41. Pad See-Iew with shrimp
    Karen L.

    I wanted to love this place. The interior is cute and the service was great. But the food was without question very mid. Started with the Tiger Cry - it was so incredibly dry and over cooked that it was like chewing jerky. Not spicy at all. My husband got the pad see-lew with shrimp and spice level 1. I got the pad paak roum mit with chicken spice level four. They were both equal spicy which to me was maybe a level three. I have no idea why they even asked us. My dish was kind of tasteless otherwise. The best part was sadly the Thai donuts which is fried dough with sugar so kinda hard to mess up. We will keep exploring the neighborhood for a regular Thai spot cause this wasn't it for us.

    Ordered pad Thai and pad see ew. Both dry and bland. They didn't even mix in the chili powder, just threw it on top. Never again.

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.

Our large group was accommodated easily, and we were served relatively quickly after an initial delay while we were waiting for someone to come by. Food came soon after that. We ordered a wide range of things: honey shrimp, beef tripe, pork intestine, Hong Kong style fried noodles. Everything here is solid and delicious. Portions are reasonable too. Ambience is nice, clean, and modern. Only issue while we were here is that some in our group tried to order their baked chicken over spaghetti and they were out of spaghetti. Interesting basic ingredient to be short on here, but rice was not a bad substitute. Would definitely come back here if ever back in Chicago!

The music kept disconnecting and cutting out, completely ruining the atmosphere. If your restaurant automatically adds gratuity for parties of five or more, DECLARE IT CLEARLY UPFRONT. Don't wait until customers are leaving to explain it. We had already tipped, but our waiter actually ran outside to tell us it wasn't enough because it HAD TO BE AT LEAST 18% GRATUITY. Forcing an 18% gratuity after providing terrible service and mid food is unacceptable. Be transparent about your policies from the start instead of putting customers in an awkward situation after the meal.

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.
