Never have I ever felt more welcomed in an establishment! The customer service level is through the roof! We had the chicken pad Thai and vegetable fried rice, both were hits! Unfortunately the fried rice does not come as a side item. I would recommend ordering some peanut sauce on the side. The pricing was reasonable. Street parking only. Super quick service and there are small tables for dining in. I definitely would list this as a must try!

Great for vegans!!! Their tofu satay is my favorite i’ve ever had. I eat here all the time, it’s amazing. Great service, fair prices, amazing food. Highly recommend!

This is a great spot! My friend and I went last night and had a delicious meal. We ate in the cafe where the atmosphere was very cute and happy! It is perfect for a date night or an relaxing chat with a friend as most tables seat 2-3 folks. The service was very welcoming and considerate about our experience. We got spicy udon noodles with chicken and pad see-ew with beef~ each dish was delicious and I’m still thinking about the bouncy noodles with perfect sauce ratio! I will definitely come back with friends to make more happy memories. I hope you try it out! Thank you!

Love this place, food is always delicious, fresh, and the owner is easily the nicest restaurant owner I've ever encountered, and she always remembers little things that her customers request. Service is quick & efficient. Fantastic local gem.

Hidden gem! We absolutely LOVE Rice Thai Cafe! Kim has created a welcoming and delicious restaurant. The curry, noodles, and Thai dishes are all exceptional. We try to eat there at least twice a month. The food is always fresh, the variety of noodles and dishes allows for different options every time, including vegetarian options. And we love supporting this local, family-owned restaurant.

This place has found a special place in my heart and my belly. The front of house is as accommodating as can be, making you feel like you're coming home for some good eats. The food hit the exact right spot! We will definitely be coming back.

If I could give zero stars I would. This is the worst thai food I’ve ever tasted. I ordered the Basil Fried Rice and Vegetable Egg Rolls. Everything was bland with no flavor, it didn’t even taste like Thai food. A waste of money.
My wife and I will never waste our hard earned money at this establishment again. There are better Thai restaurants in Rogers Park than Rice Thai Cafe. HORRIBLE!!!

Delicious food, very nice waiters, we were sitting outside and loved the patio and flowers here, good place to eat Thai food 🥘

This is our go-to for takeout Thai food. The curry dishes and pad kee mao are a few of our favorites, but you can’t go wrong with anything. The owner is also super friendly.

Great for vegans!!! Their tofu satay is my favorite i’ve ever had. I eat here all the time, it’s amazing. Great service, fair prices, amazing food. Highly recommend!

very very good thai place / probably the best one north of devon. good balance of authentic & americanized dished + everything tastes bright, fresh and well seasoned like thai should. run by a nice mom :)

Ordered pickup and they got my order wrong despite checking three times. They charged me for an appetizer but didn't add to the pickup. Didn't pickup when trying to call them several times to remedy their mistake. Food was just okay.

Love this place. The only place I eat Thai food and don't have a stomachache.

Very nice place, the lady is very polite, and their food is good, if you live in a walking distance it definitely worth checking out. If you’re picking up and you’re on the car make sure you find parking close by it’s mostly street parking in this area.

Small, but family run, which makes this a wonderful place for great food and service!

a true Rogers park gem. I love coming here

Delicious food, very nice waiters, we were sitting outside and loved the patio and flowers here, good place to eat Thai food 🥘

Pad See-Ew was spectacular. Service was friendly and prompt. Love the vibe on their outdoor patio!

In town for work. Total accident I stopped in to eat. Bear food surprise in years. Highly recommend

Kim is so great!

Kim was our server and she was so kind and nice, great atmosphere to sit outside and have a fantastic meal with my partner 💜💚💜 egg rolls were perfection. Pad Thai was excellent.

Rogers park gem!! Thank you so much!!!!!

The menu is very extensive. The staff is both very helpful and very personable. My companion and I each had different dishes both of which were excellent! I'm looking forward to going back again soon.

Very kind owner. Food is quick, delicious, and reasonably priced

One of my favorite restaurants. Cozy, tiny, welcoming and good. A neighborhood treasure

The best Bangkok Chicken, Spicy chicken, and Yakisoba noodles that I have tasted!! I am waiting to taste all their other preparations over time. Very courteous service, prompt, and they put great effort to make things perfect. Having it in my neighborhood is a boon. I absolutely love it and get food from them very frequently, it's like home.

Fantastic Thai food. The lady who helped me with my order was extremely professional and kind. Will be coming back for more!

Visiting from Michigan and wanted to see outside of Chicago. I’m glad we were in the area because this little place is a gem. Staff is amazing and food is so yummy.

This place is a great small restaurant. Kim is awesome. Their food and service is great.

Delicious Thai place with prompt friendly service. I’ve been visiting here for years and it’s a staple.

Великолепное и уютное тайское кафе, влюбились с первого взгляда. Я любитель острых блюд, ребята удовлетворили мои вкусы с первого раза

Beautiful and friendly people, wonderfull service ,the best . Love to eat here.

Excellent, nutritious, food at a very reasonable price and operated by wonderful people. Easily my favorite spot in Roger’s Park; highly recommend!

The owner is the sweetest person ever. The food is amazing and fairly priced

My fiancee and I are here after work at Loyola, and it was DELICIOUS. I had Pad Thai, and Sue had something else (my bad for not remembering). A five minute walk north from Loyola. BYOB, and no cork fee. We will definitely be going back soon.

The food is very good, but the attention is incredibly. I love this place

I LOVE Rice Thai Cafe! The owners are the absolute sweetest. The food has lots of flavor! I recommend the Pad See Ew with any meat (the pork and chicken are very good). They also thee crispiest Crab Rangoon!

I seldom leave reviews but I had to make an exception for this restaurant!! The food is outstanding- I absolutely love Thai and this is my go to place! I order from here about once a week/every two weeks.

The take out service/ordering is very convenient and the pricing is fair. The owner is very kind and personable! I have never received better customer service

Basic Thai recipes, executed well. I appreciate the cozy outdoor dining space and that they will make fried rice with brown rice. When you consider the low prices, it adds up to one of the best Thai dining deals I know of. Super friendly service, also!

The pad Thai here was really good and the women working was very nice and was very helpful in accommodating to our dietary restrictions.

Finally found a place in Chicago that can make food spicy but still be delicious.

Perfect portion and DELICIOUS food..

Once a week without fail I order food from here. They know me by name and are always so nice when they see me. I’ve quite literally never had a bad meal but recommend the green curry for sure. A must go if you’re in the area!

You would be remiss if you did not check out this restaurant! Rice Thai has been my trusty Thai spot for four years now. Each dish is absolutely exquisite made with love and care. This is the ultimate comfort food that truly feeds the soul.

love this place. amazing customer service+even more amazing food. I'll definitely be returning..

the young lady at this cafe is the SWEETEST SOUL!! thank you for running like 4 blocks to get us our food :) on top of that, the food was amazing here. you get so much QUALITY food for a low price. there are lots of different options on the menu which was also great!! pls give this place a try - you wont regret it!!!

I just came here for the first time and without even trying my food I know I’ll be back. The service was amazing!

Amazing food, quick friendly service! Owners are amazing, HIGHLY recommend!!

What an amazing local spot. Family owned and authentic

They have a cozy dining area, about three two person tables. It was perfect for our date! We had their edamame, chicken gyoza, spicy basil noodles, rose tea and pad kee mao. It was all very delicious and the service was great!

Prices are the best in Chicago. We ate in, although there are only four tables. Most if their food is take out.

Amazing food and great service. We love going here as much as we can. The host now even knows our dietary restrictions and our preferences for climate-friendly options!

I get takeout here occasionally, and every time it's freshly made, hot, delicious, and the service is friendly.

Best pad thai in the city! It's always high quality even with takeout, so much flavor and nothing mushy or bland.

Was closed during work hours listed at their door and on the website

Top Thai food in Chicago. Their curries and noodles are awesome. Highly recommend their seaweed salad. Service is excellent for dine in and they are really fast for take out!

Excellent food. Excellent service.

I eat here at least twice a month. The staff are very warm and friendly. I love the Basil noodle with shrimp.

My personal favorite Thai food! Best service I've ever had (so nice and great recommendations). Pad See Ew is my absolute favorite, and there are so many great appetizers. Great place to grab dinner before a movie next door. Can't find any better thai food in the area. Love rice thai so much!

Good eats

Walked 6 blocks and was closed

Totally forgot to take pics of food but it was delicious!!. We had Curry fried rice with tofu & no egg, basil fried rice with tofu & no egg, and a couple orders of the fried veggie dumplings were so yummy. Owner was kind and welcoming, I had questions about vegan menu items, and she was informative when it came to customizing the dishes and explaining the ingredients in it. If you’re looking for vegan- they can also make several noodle dishes vegan, including pad Thai which I would love to try next time. Thank you so much. We will be back!!

cute little place. very affordable and yummy basil fried rice. cashier/waitress is the sweetest and most friendliest woman. great if youre on a budget

Tasty food and especially appreciated the personalized help with finding menu items for a vegan diner in our party! Friendly service!

Great place, great good, great people

everything about this restaurant is tops! The staff is beyond kind. The food is extraordinary! We love coming here, and have for many years!
They know us by name and whenever we are in the mood, which is often,
we scoot on over there! You will be happy without a doubt! Thanks Rice Thai!

Great staff, great prices, great food. This place is a Rogers Park hidden gem!

Delicious pannang duck curry and a fresh papaya salad. Small cozy little restaurant with a receptionist ready to answer any questions

Really nice staff, good prices, good food all around

This criminally overlooked restaurant has an affable staff, snappy service, and wonderful Thai cuisine. I ordered Chicken with Peanut Sauce and was delighted by the combination of broccoli and carrots with sauce, a rare feat. The portions are neither too excessive nor underwhelming. I encourage you to visit this gem; the field at Toby Prinz Beach makes for a great picnic destination.

We ordered our very first takeout. The lady at the counter, Kim … is very friendly and informative. The food is good and tasty. We ordered bbq pork fried rice, beef with oyster sauce, chicken pad Thai and the best tasting basil ginger chicken. We also ordered the sticky rice with mango for dessert. This place is a keeper and we will return. Highly recommend. This is a small non pretentious takeout restaurant.

Love this place! Great food, great Thai iced tea, and oh my gosh... the service is incredible. The owner always remembers me and is so kind and helpful. I’ll be back again soon!

Very good ramen and good price little family owned been around since I was a kid always good to come back for some good food

Wonderful Thai food. Great family that runs it. Reasonably priced and takeout is super easy. A real winner!

I have been going to this restaurant since I was in highschool. The current owner is AMAZING!!! She is unbelievably friendly, helpful and generous. The food is great and well priced. Most places you get your food and are content, but the genuine politeness and sincerity from the owner during the short transaction to pay puts things over the top. Sincerely, thank you for your service and hard work through 2020 and beyond!

Chuchee salmon is amazing and spicy. Really nice people!

Great tasting food. Affordable price. I would come just for the Thai iced coffee

Just ok, but definitely ok. Parking is poor to non-existent but there is a "loading zone" right out front. So, if like us you are doing pickup, take two people so that one can wait in the car. The food was ready and hot when they said it would be, and they gave us a complimentary fried chicken dumpling order out of the blue. I'd like to be more upbeat, but there are quite a few good Thai places around and this place doesn't stand out.

My FAVORITE Thai place. Medium-sized, solid menu (everything I've had has been delicious), fair prices, and amazing service. Especially love the fried rice and red curry with chicken.

Poorly made Philadelphia rolls with smoked salmon (what?). Gyoza no good either, curry missing enough protein. Not recommended

The food is great, delivery was fast, and the staff were nice enough to call me to inform me that one of the things I ordered is usuallly prepared with a sauce that I may be allergic to, and that they would use the necessary substitute ingredient. This place is great 👍

Good food and reasonable prices. Thank You!

First delivery and just loved it all. Nice customer service on the phone. Willing to make a substitution without stressing about it. Big portions, fresh vege, and great taste (we had two noodle dishes). Free potstickers weren’t the best we’ve had, but it is delivery, and the chive dumplings were as good as any we’ve had. Great to find another small Thai place to support. Chicago has some of the best Thai outside Thailand so let’s help keep them in business!

Hidden gem that never disappoints

The food here is extremely tasty, the prices are great, and It a really good place to grab dinner. I would come here any day of the week.

I like the chicken Basil. But all the dishes are good.

The lady there is so rude and lacks customer service, she needs to go take training on how to serve people better. I won't go here again

Massaman curry was watery and not very interesting. Pad Thai was ok.

Average food for price. We were disappointed in the noodles and rice, but the red curry was good. The website has a coupon “Specials” section, but there is no way to activate the promo. I called and the person with whom I spoke continued to say that she does not know what “they” are offering. I explained that I did not go through a third party, I chose “order now” on their website, but it didn’t seem to register. She ultimately honored the coupon but it took 3 calls and several minutes. The food arrived in just under an hour which was a bit sooner than the estimated, I appreciated. However, based on quality of food, I do not know if we will go back. It could be they were having an off night because once before we had ordered Spicy Basil Rice and it was a bit better.

Not the most authentic, but it's good. Hits the spot and conveniently located in the neighborhood

Pad Thai was made incorrectly, I know a good pad Thai and this was not it.

Good Thai food close to Loyola's Lakeshore Campus. It's a small spot with only a few tables, but it seems like they do a good carry out business. The staff were friendly and helpful and the little patio was nice on a beautiful day. The food was quite good, specifically the spicy chicken and the cashew chicken. It's a little isolated from some other spots by campus, but worth the walk.

Food wasn't really that good. Its work a try but I think next time I'll look elsewhere. Just wasn't happy with quality of food.

Cashier was so rude and racist.

Delicious, cozy and good value for money.

great food, excellent service, convenient location. not much room for sitting inside, so I'd recommend sitting outside or grabbing it to go.

Great little mom and pop type Thai restaurant. I used to live across the street and this was my favorite place to eat and get take out. Lovely people, charming people, great food.

I'm only giving 4 stars because the space is so small but their Thai Iced Tea was out of this world!!

Love the food here

Good and convient

Good prices

Cozy spot, delicious Tom Yum soup!

Small restaurant with limited seating, but nice and cozy. Tofu tends to be a little dried out but flavors are always there. Seasonal mango sticky rice is delicious!

Loved this place! The food was delicious and the service was excellent.

I was apprehensive after reading the review about the silverfish, but I can assure you this place was incredibly clean. Will definitely return!!

Service is so good here, and the food is delish! Try the pad prikh king.

Charming hole in the wall serving consistently excellent, reasonably-priced Thai food. A lot of Rice Thai's business is take out, but dine-in is great, too -- the staff is genuinely friendly and the food comes quickly and well-plated.

So I just ordered carry out yesterday (12.27.2018) and I ordered the panang curry with fried rice. I opened up my fried rice and I see a a silverfish bug running in my food. I used to LOVE this place but now I’m questioning the food I’ve had there

Green curry is nice. Good place for missing asian foods!

Quant and quality

This used to be one of my favorite places to eat when I live right across the street. The lunch specials are a great and the service is wonderful.

The spicy chicken and curry salmo are my favorites

Good food for the money and great location.

Great music!

Great friendly place

Don't bother with this place. Green curry and spring rolls. Curry had ok flavor (medium hot) but other than a handful of sliced bamboo shoots and about two cut up green beans, there wasn't much to it. I paid $2 extra for shrimp and got four smallish shrimp. Spring rolls were the worst I've ever had anywhere.

Amazing food and service! Great veggie options, very friendly staff, cute place :)

I had a delicious green chicken curry and would highly recommend.

Sadly I suggest going someplace else for both Thai food and sushi. The service was good but the pad Thai was bland and the sushi was fishy.

This little spot was great! The spicy Bangkok chicken was spot on. Everything tasted fresh and the spice was great. It’s a cute little restaurant that has both indoor and patio seating. Great value! I will be back!

Kind workers. Excellent food with generous portions. Love going here when I'm too lazy to cook, never disappointed with the coconut curry!

Chicken Panang Curry was spot on.
Pad WooSen was going as well
The Maki Shrimp Tempura roll was just ok.

Can't beat the prices of the cheap lunch specials. I recommend coming for that. Decent quality otherwise, and unfortunately there's limited seating.

Great food and good prices!

Friendly staff & Delicious Chicken Pad Thai.

Great food!

<3 PAD THAI!

This place is great. The beef pad thai is full of flavor.

Amazing food! The pad Thai is the best!

Cheap food and tasty. Super affordable lunch menu available. Near the beach in Rogers Park too.

The food is really good and quick

Delicious Thai food. Receptive to spice level requests. Quick service and togo.

Ordered from here since the day it opened. They have some good noodle dishes.

Went for take out and was the best I've had in years! Many thanks to the prepare-rs.

We had the Tom Kha, Panang Curry and Massaman Curry.

One of the best Tom Kha i've ever had.

A small and simple place with good food and friendly service.
