    27. Tom Kha Kai

    Honestly I was so excited for this place but was disappointed by the taste, especially for the price. The basil chicken was quite dry and hard to chew and I was the most disappointed by this. The best item we had was tom kah kai soup, the flavor was great and such a comfort food! The pad see ew and red curry was pretty average. I did enjoy the shrimp in the blanket more than I expected! The restaurant vibes were cute and the service was great though!

    Food was amazing. I didn't expect the bowl to be so big but I am not complaining. I truly enjoyed the food and the atmosphere.

    It's not a bad place to get your pho fix. The crab rangoons were huge and they had an interesting sauce. It's not the typical sweat and sour sauce. A lot more tangy and citrusy. The Pad Kee Mao was decent. Not the best around Champaign but it was a decent portion, the Pho was very flavorful. Didn't even need sriracha or hoisin sauce. Overall pretty good however I would say you can find better for the price elsewhere.

    Had dinner with my friend at this restaurant during the 2023 Champaign County Restaurant week. Their RW special is roll the spring roll by yourself. Great fun! It's so amazing to see that the hard, crispy spring roll wrapper becomes sticky right after it touches water. Besides, the shrimp for us to "roll" is tender and fresh. Besides this RW special, I ordered a Mussaman curry and my friend ordered a pho. We also had a papaya salad (Thai style) . The curry was nice for me, though it would be better if it had more veggies. My friend enjoyed his pho as well. The portion size of the salad was generous, but it was too oily for me. Finally, the atmosphere of the restaurant was good. The restroom was clean, and I especially like the painting at their bar. So in general, it's not a bad restaurant, but the dining experience was not perfect either.

    Everything on the menu is amazing! I have yet to try something I didn't love. Also it's both a cozy spot for a nice bowl of hot soup on a cold day and the patio makes for a nice spot for a summer dinner. Everyone's so nice too. You can't go wrong!

    Maybe I haven't been paying enough attention, but if you were to ask me to name a place that could…read moregive you a unique Thai experience, I would think of Siam Terrace. I think many Thai places are very similar, standard noodle and curry options with the same meat choices. I found that Siam Terrace has some really neat options that I normally do not see in my local Thai spots, and they do a great job with the food as well! First and foremost, Siam Terrace does the basics correct. What I mean is that their noodles can always be an option if you need something simple. Normally I am not a Pad Thai person, I prefer the spice of the Pad See Ew instead, but I decided to get it here and it was outstanding. Noodles weren't too sticky, all the sour, sweet and salty elements were there, and it was super filling and affordable! They have so many different options, I imagine they are all fantastic! The item I ordered that I don't see often elsewhere is their duck curry. Although it is a red curry, there are enough sweet elements to balance the blaze of the curry. The duck itself is tender and flavorful and they certainly don't skimp on the amount of duck you receive! Paired with rice, it is a really great dish. Another underrated aspect of the restaurant is that it is so accommodating to various diets. They have so many vegetarian friendly options, including said duck dishes! I can always stand behind a solid restaurant that serves all!

    I'm actually depressed that I am leaving town tomorrow and I'll have no reason to come back to town…read morefor a long time. This place is by far the best Thai food I've ever had and let me tell you I've had a lot of Thai food. The peanut sauce they used on their chicken and broccoli. Peanut dish was like nothing I've ever tasted before. Their pod Woon sen was out of this world and both had an enormously generous amount of fresh veggies. Everything was fresh. The prices were good. The egg rolls were outstanding. I'm so so sad. I won't have a reason to come back here for a long time. I might have to create a reason.
