The food and service was terrible very salty. You had to keep asking the waitress who's the owner for water or for a slice of lime. I paid with my Visa and didn't include any gratuity and this waitress had the nerve to come outside and address my son that we didn't leave her tip. This lady said it is written in the menu regarding tip. My son gave her 5 dollars and she left talking her Thai language. This shows you this restaurant is a ghetto place don't waste your money. Believe me see from outside and on a Friday night 2 customers?? I should have known, good luck if you go try this place is "0000 no good. read more

I have no idea why I gave these guys 4 stars originally. We love them and order from here all the time. After 10+ years and lots of other Thai places tried, these guys rate a 5. read more

The grilled squid appetizer is one of my favorites of any Thai place in the area. Som Tum is very well prepared, too.

This is a very good neighborhood Thai restaurant. We often come for the shrimp ladnar, Thai fried rice with shrimp and Thai iced tea. We love the smoky flavor of the ladnar with leafy greens and the shrimp. It goes well with their Thai tea and Fried rice. We have been here many times and will return many more. read more

I've been looking for adequate Thai takeout/delivery in my neck of the woods up in the NW corner of Rogers Park, and this fills the bill nicely enough so far. Their curries seem to be a particular strength (we asked for duck in a red curry, which turned out nicely), and we also enjoyed the spicy noodles, and the Thai custard. Things like the papaya salad and the spring rolls were adequate. The key features are that they're nearby, cheap, quick on delivery, and the food's better than at some of the places down by Devon. read more

Switching from pea pods to soggy green beans in all the dishes is a big bummer. How sad! I guess they were trying to cut corners after fixing up their space, but as a result, I stopped eating there as often. Please bring back the good ingredients! Your customers can tell the difference. read more

Maybe not the best Thai restaurant I've been to, but definitely solid if you're looking for something nearby or in a pinch. :)

Siam Pasta is one of those hole-in-the-wall Asian restaurants that remind you why living in the city is so great. The layout of the restaurant is a bit peculiar, as was the staff. However, the food was pretty solid. It is clear that the bulk of their customers order take-out but the dining area is somewhat large (and, truthfully, a little shabby). read more

OK, this place is just great Thai food, no joke. There's also one in Evanston, (I tried to review for that location on here-didn't find it) which has an awesomely-decorated interior AND an outdoor patio overlooking Dempster Street. The food comes quickly, is always good, and is pretty damn cheap. And the servers are almost all friendly--there's only ONE mean one!! But seriously--if you need some good Thai food, go to Siam Pasta. read more

Good choices of food. Not the best thai food I've eat but still delish! Service was alright.

Siam Pasta was one of my favorite neighborhood Thai places.. but the last time I was there there were a couple fruit flies floating around in the jalapeno jar. I didn't see until after I ate some of it.. the waitress just said gross and took it away. not apology or anything. If decide to dine in, keep an eye out for fruit flies. read more

Service is TERRIBLE! I have never dined in, I don't want to lose all my patience. I think English should be taught to all new workers because most times I can't understand what they're saying when I call (no offense). I also do not like being told to "look at the menu and call right back with my order". If it weren't for my love of Chicken Pad Thai, they wouldn't get my coins! read more

I usually switch up my entree between the chicken pad thai and the beef fried rice but my appetizer is ALWAYS their crab rangoon. It's the best in the city. It's more crab than cream cheese which i love. It's not all gooey like most places. If you try anything from here, don't leave without having their crab rangoon. read more

WOW is all I can say..... Baby egg rolls and pad thai with chicken... hot, delicious, large portions, and FRESH!!! My new favorite place for Thai in Rogers Park!!! Thanks Siam !!!! read more

Great place awesome food service was excellent!

I was surprised to see 4 stars on most reviews. Maybe I just came on a bad day. The food was alright. Nothing spectacular. Service wasn't very good either. We had to always ASK for thing's. No peapods in the restaurant? Did notice much more delivery. So maybe it's the service that needs more work. read more

Two words - CRAB LAGOON!! I can eat a million of those mouth watering crunchy deliciousness. No one - I repeat - NO ONE! makes their crab rangoons the way Siam Pasta does. I have been searching high and low - east to west coast for a Thai restaurant that makes it that way and I have yet to find any by comparison. Pick up an order next time you're there. :) read more

I've eaten here several times....and the people are friendly, prices reasonable (esp. w/online coupon), but the food is mediocre. First few time I went, it wasn't bad, but the last time, it was pretty bleak. read more

Well I work in a business that is walking distance from this location. My co-workers and I used to love eating from this place. the food was good but the attendant could have been more personable and courteous. I found myself eating their food one day and as I poked at my food I found a fly in the Pad Thai plate I had. I was so disgusted that I will never come back to this place. I almost threw up. read more

Mmm, I've loved this place for the past 10 years. They are really friendly, the food is great and it's the only Thai place around here that carries Meekrob which is a MUST in my book. Additionally, they will gladly leave the fish sauce out of anything besides the curry (which it comes in apparently?) making everything vegetarian friendly with a tofu option. Just had them for dinner (tofu pad woon sen minus fish sauce) and it was delish! read more

I love this place...the food is delicious, and not hurtful on the pocketbook. The service has always been fast and friendly, and for being in Chicago, parking is never a problem, (at leas not so far). If you like Thai, give it a try...it beats a lot of the over priced, over hyped spots I've been to. read more

I went here a several time already the quality and quantity of the food had gotten worst and less. Food not good. My foods was all burned and mushy. Never go there!!! Don't wast ur money... Well never go back. read more

Since I was in High School back in 1997 I have been going to this restaurant, many other Thai restaurants later, I would have to say that this place has the best Pad Thai hands down! read more

Eat takeout from here often. They are very quick and have a good price point. I really like the baby egg rolls and fried rice. I'm not a big fan of the noodle dishes because I don't think they have enough sauce (I'm a sauce lover). I'd recommend it as a takeout joint; I don't see too many people eating in. read more

I have been going here for years. This is the way Pad Thai should be made and their Lime Chicken or Shrimp appetizer is awesome. Everything I have had from here is really good. Love this place. read more

They have excellent tasting fried rice w/ big portions. It's more of take-out vs a dine-in restaurant. I first started going to this restaurant in 1993, the year it opened. It's now 2008, I reside in a different state and during my infrequent visits to Chicago, I still find myself venturing into Siam Pasta for their fried rice. Not sure if it's nostalgia or the fried rice. The owners are the same, it's a family owned business. They have a sister restaurant in Evanston. During this penny-pinching economy, it helps that they have coupons in their take-out menu. One is for "free" egg rolls w/ purchase of $10, the other is a free entrée (?) for dine-in only w/ purchase of two entrees. Come to think of it, they have always had these coupons ... since 1993. Parking may be a bit of a challenge. At times, I have found myself circling the block but usually find a spot on Western Avenue. All this for their fried rice! Go figure. The restaurant is located in Rogers Park so I've been leery of leaving my vehicle unattended for long periods of time, hence the preference for take-out food. read more

My mom first introduced me to Siam Pasta because she loved the chicken satay. The chicken satay is good, but these days I'm all about their Pad Thai with tofu. The Pad Thai with tofu is YUMMY! You get a huge portion for around $7. The service is so/so. They basically bring you the dish you ordered, and never come back around to ask if everything is ok. No free refills on soda. My tummy is growling right now thinking about the Pad Thai! They bring out a 2 little containers, one with hot sauce and one with crushed peanuts. Their hot sauce is delish with their Pad Thai, and I pour so many crushed peanuts on top they prob hate me for eating all their peanuts!! Try the chicken satay or my fav Pad Thai w/ tofu if you go! The bill is always under $10 for Pad Thai and a coke, so that's a bonus. read more

my friend came to visit ordered fooddidint have time to cook she said it was the best Thai food she ever tasted! They need to clean up around the out side of the storefront kinda dirty. read more

Our house had no kitchen due to construction, got into car and drove during rush hour East on Touhy-traffic so bad you could die-got to Western-I said "there's this Thai restaurant I once went to" -long story short- Home Run! had Super curry dish Moh....forgot the name-out of this world! Yum, yum, yum .Even my picky spouse was happy read more

How I love this place! I've been coming here for yeeaarsszz. It never disappoints. One of the best Pad Thai in the city. Service has gotten better, the place is the same and very friendly wait staff. I would recommend this place to anyone. read more

Excellent! I've ordered on multiple occasions the chicken pad Thai, pad woon sen, and (although not on the menu, but available by request) pad kee Mao and have never been disappointed. It's fairly priced and delicious! The crab rangoons are tasty, and the free spring rolls are a wonderful addition to any order. *pad woon sen is the best I've ever had.* read more

Best pepper and garlic chicken, huge portions and great staff. I've been coming here for 18 years. This is my husband and my favorite restaurant! read more

Ordered for delivery. Shrimp was without flavor and like rubber in the pad Thai. Green curry was watery with overcooked chicken. What happened, guys? There is much better Thai food to be had in the area. read more

Pad Thai is awesome here!! A must try...I can eat those sweet, delicious, monster noodles all day baby!!

This is an objective review written as a public service. When visiting a town like Chicago every meal counts. You don't want to waste time and more importantly, belly room on a bad meal. So It pains me to say that tonight's dinner was possibly the worst Thai meal I have ever eaten. The food was bland, overcooked, dry and simply lackluster....The ingredients were not fresh and our food was simply not very tasty. Sorry Siam Pasta, but you get thumbs down from us. read more

Early 90's was golden where the Pad Thai set the gold standard for our family and all that we took there to dine. Could not find superior noodle in NY, LA or FL. But chefs do retire so the taste has not been great. The Pad-See-Wu is still good, baby egg rolls stellar, Green and Panang curry nicely done. Cucumber salad, Spring rolls and Mee Krob are still delightful. But the fish is atrocious. Whether the snapper or the salmon, both were yuck. read more

We arrived at 9:20pm (they close at 10pm on a Friday). Immediately asked to order. My wife sat down and my butt was approaching the seat, but comfort wasn't on the menu and placing an order was made a priority. We both knew that we wanted spring rolls so we went ahead and placed the appetizer order. The waitress asked if we were ready with the rest of the order. I responded to the waitress that I had just sat down. She didn't understand. I repeated that I had just sat down. She shook her head. Language barrier. My wife spoke up and said that we needed a minute and the waitress walked away. I believe that aside from us, there was only one other patron in the restaurant. They were getting ready to close early. They turned off the music while we were waiting for our spring rolls. Not the best ambience, an empty restaurant with no music. I remarked that it felt a bit like invading someone's house. Our spring rolls arrived, along with our water. Nothing notable about the rolls, but we were hungry. Tasteless, almost microwaved, with a sauce ladled on top that tasted like honey mixed with soy. I supplied my waitress with a printed groupon and she walked away. We finished our lackluster rolls and the waitress arrived with our entrees. She asked that we buy something more because of the $5 minimum restaurant policy. I told her I wasn't interested in anything else on the menu. She asked for us to pay in cash. I told her we didn't have any cash. She said it's restaurant policy, and I apologized to her and said that they should rethink their policy this time. After a good long eye contact I said that we would be more than happy to leave. The waitress mumbled something like No the food is already here you might as well eat it, and walked away. I asked my wife if she had any cash hidden anywhere. She said no. I thought about credit card machines. They do tend to charge businesses an annoying fee for small purchases. I wondered if it was possible to pay the fee instead of being asked to buy more food. Another woman arrived at the table. Another waitress, with a better grasp of English. She asked me to buy more, or pay in cash. A different person but the same rigmarole. I told her that it was illegal to force customers to pay in cash or buy more food. She said she has been a waitress for a long time and that she knows what she's talking about. I didn't tell her that she was being a terrible waitress. I did, however, get up with my wife and leave the restaurant. They kept my groupon. What a sad experience. read more

The food is great. Amazing pad Thai and mini egg rolls are so good. I'm really not happy tonight after receiving my delivery though. I paid extra for the combo shrimp and chicken option. There was only 1 shrimp in the entire dish. I called to complain and they told me they only put 2 shrimps in that dish. WHAT???!! I paid extra and ordered shrimp because I wanted shrimp not just 1 single tiny shrimp. Why would you put that as an option if it's all chicken and 1 little shrimp?? Also the pad Thai comes with tofu automatically that looks like chicken, and the description does not say it includes tofu ! When I called to complain she refused to give me any type of refund or credit! Very upset. False advertising. My pot sticker sauce dip was very thick and very sweet, not good. So disappointing to order this food and order from a restaurant so often to then have this bad customer service and false advertising. read more

Usually, Siam pasta delivers fast quality food. Today I ordered the Pinapple Fried Rice with Chicken and there was not one single piece of pinapple to be found or raisin for that matter. Very disappointing. When I called to find out why my meal was missing these ingredients I was given no answer other than "we can give you a credit the next time you order". read more

Siam Pasta Delivery: In a word, Don't. It took them two hours to come on a Monday night. Needless to say, the food is cold. I was unhappy the first time I ate there but I thought I would give them a second chance. The food was not bad but it had to be reheated, not an easy task with Thai food as many dishes mixed cooked and raw ingredients. read more
