Fantastic food and service!!

Diner Review №3

Have ordered from this place before. But have never had such horrible food previously. Honestly the worst I've ever had from anywhere tonight. Cannot even begin to describe how terrible. Must have changed hands. Food was stale, supposedly received chicken but have no idea. Definitely will be the absolute last time here. Especially after paying $55 for something so bad!

Diner Review №4

Have loved this place for years. Still one of my must-have meals when I'm in town. My favorite is always the Chicken Pad Thai with Crab Rangoons. The house dressing for their salad is also delicious. One of my favorite spots for Thai food in the country.

Diner Review №5

The food was very good 👍

Diner Review №6

Great food and service.

Diner Review №7

The customer service in this establishment is absolutely wonderful! I am giving a low rating because my food was not as described as per the online menu. No bean sprouts or green onion. There was no spice, I requested level 1. I couldn't taste any spice and my noodles were congealed and no sauce was to be found in the dish. Very dry. I was so disappointed! I was excited to get this food, only to be let down tremendously.

Diner Review №8

The gentleman that helped us was so sweet and accommodating. The food was ready fast and it was hot and all correct. Portion sizes were enough for 2-3 meals. It was well worth the money.

Diner Review №9

Thai Hut offers a perfect experience with flavorful dishes that stand out. The Chicken Pad Thai is perfectly balanced, with tender chicken and noodles in a tangy sauce that’s just right—not too sweet or overpowering. The Drunken Noodles bring a satisfying kick, with fresh vegetables and a spice level that complements the savory noodles. The Orange Chicken is a treat, crispy on the outside with a tangy, slightly sweet glaze that doesn’t feel overly sticky or heavy. The portions are generous, and the staff is attentive, making it a go-to spot for quality Thai cuisine.

Diner Review №14

Food was fantastic. Staff was excellent and on top of their game. I took my grandson there and he couldn't believe how much better the food was versus fast food Chinese places. Raved about it all the way home. Will definitely go back.

When you walk in, the aroma of the restaurant lets you know that the food will be good. We ordered takeout, and they ask you how spicy you want it, on a 1-5 star scale. The curries were very flavorful. I was disappointed because I ordered my Panang 5* hot, which is advertised as only for “addicts, masochists, and Thai Nationals.” The curry, while good tasting, was nowhere near as spicy as I expected. I finished the meal without breaking a sweat.

Diner Review №25

I got the chicken satay and yellow curry with a spice level of 9. I probably should have gotten it hotter, but this was a good level to enjoy the food. The curry was sweet and had a good kick.

Diner Review №26

I LOVE it here! The best place to have Pad Thai in all of Rockford! They have a special homemade spicy sauce made in-house for dine-in that REALLY packs the hotness! Their Drunken Noodles are also one of my favorites! They are so nice and still let me order from the lunch menu even though I got there at like 2:50. Good prices too, definitely recommend!

Diner Review №28

I fell in love with this place a few months ago and have been a loyal customer ever since. My favorite go-to place for delicious, flavorful comfort food. My absolute favorite item on the menu is the pork drunken noodle - I could eat a bucket of this stuff. Staff is always super friendly and helpful. A Rockford gem!

Diner Review №30

Great food. Wish they wouldn't sit everyone in the same section when they aren't busy. Couldn't have a conversation due to a family with children.

Diner Review №31

Diner Review №32

Inauthentic Thai. Chicken satay was okay but the cucumber salad was literally cut up cucumber slices sitting in a soup of syrup. Gross. Laab gai was clumpy due to excessive cornstarch and could have used more flavors.

Diner Review №33

Always excellent food and service

Diner Review №34

Restaurant wasn't that busy when we showed up. Did not know this place existed but glad we found it, food came out quick and fresh. Food was delicious, definitely recommend and look forward to eating there again.

Diner Review №45

Amazing Thai food. Try heat level 5 if you're brave

Diner Review №46

I have so much to say about this place.
We LOVED it! So we give it 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

We went on a Sunday early afternoon and as soon as we walked in, we were greeted very amicably by one of the hostesses. We were seated by the floor to ceilings windows; and the lighting and the rather calm and relaxing ambience were inimitable!

We loved our food it was palatable! First we started with the Thai Ice tea, something I’ve never had. It was different, but I quickly acquired the taste. Our starters were the Egg rolls which came in an order of 2, they are vegetarian and big! (Hey, I’m not complaining 😉). By far the BEST egg rolls I’ve ever had!! I highly recommend. Little greasy, but delicious! We also had a house salad side and the ginger dressing was surprisingly good, I’m picky and it settled well with me.
Our meals were the Orange chicken and the Tofu Pad See Eww. We were beyond pleased with the flavor, the freshness of vegetables and the presentation of our dishes.

Service was great, our server was friendly, kind, patient and helpful when it came to explaining menu items.

The restaurant was clean, and we even saw small private booth area where people can dine in and have to take off their shoes.

When it was time to leave, our server thanked us and an older gentleman came out by the bar and also thanked us and said goodbye as he bowed his head. We were truly humbled by this.

The restaurant is located in a private plaza area so the parking lot is huge. You won’t have issues with parking and it’s handicapped accessible.

Overall it was a great experience and I highly recommend Thai Hut if you want to have a great dining experience. Thai Hut, you have our Patronage! I truly can’t wait to go back and try new items on the menu! ❤️🙌

Diner Review №48

Wonderful place to get Thai food~ the menu has many options and my husband and I enjoyed our meals. I had the green curry with tofu and it was very flavorful with an option to pick which spice level I wanted. My husband had the sweet and sour chicken (which he said was the best he ever had) and we shared a plate of wontons as an appetizer. Service was friendly and quick; we’re looking forward to returning soon!

Diner Review №49

Yummy! Drunken noodles how I miss them. Very good food, very clean establishment.

Diner Review №50

The best restaurant I've been to in a LONG time! Food is fresh and super high quality, prices are fair, staff are really nice! Also, the best cucumber salad I have EVER had!

Diner Review №51

Excellent food.

Diner Review №52

How is this place not packed?!! Food was fresh, tasty. By far the best pad thai in town. Haven't been here in years but I remembered the owner. It is clear the owner cares about his restaurant as well as customer experience. Amazing service. Amazing place.

Diner Review №53

Small portions by the price. Would be nice if their menu include plate picturies

Diner Review №54

We love coming here on our lunch breaks

Diner Review №55

Great and friendly service in traditional Thai setting. Warm and welcoming. Almost like dining in someone’s well decorated Thai home. Food is good with authentic flavors and aromas. Menu has all the Thai dishes you hope to find from different curries to noodles and stir fry. Perfect for those trying Thai food for the first time or those wanting to branch out from Pad Thai. Spice levels are on a scale from 1-5 with 5 being the spiciest. You can let your server know what level spice you want. I’m a sucker for Thai Iced Tea and there’s is spot on. Thai Hut is definitely worth a try or two.

Diner Review №56

Spur of the moment decision worth daughter to return to Thai Hut for dinner. So glad we did. Orange chicken was so good. Please try the pineapple coconut freeze! Soooooooo yummy!

Diner Review №57

My favorite place to order carry out in Rockford! The food is very spicy so I always order it as "less spicy". Yes, I'm White, but I do feel like I usually can handle some heat. Definitely recommend doing less spicy if you're not sure. The curries are tasty and the Thai iced tea is to die for. The staff are very nice and always have the orders done quickly. I love ordering here and supporting their business.

Diner Review №58

This might be the worst Thai food. The chicken was very dry, even in the soup (Tom Kha).
We also had the drunken noodles and I’ve never had such oily food before. Wasn’t edible.
Unfortunately we had to throw it all way.
(This was a take out order)

Diner Review №59

This place had great food great service. Green curry was very good.

Diner Review №60

Tonight my husband and I decided to order takeout from Thai Hut. I ordered fried rice and my husband got orange chicken. Half way through our meal I discovered a grasshopper in my rice just staring at me! Being 7 months pregnant, my morning sickness kicked in immediately! I felt so so sick and couldn’t stop dry heaving for about 10min. My husband was so disgusted he couldn’t finish the rest of his meal.

We called Thai hut and they offered either a refund or a remake of the dish. Obviously who trusts food from a restaurant after finding a whole grasshopper in your food!? We asked for a refund and the lady on the phone, who we believe is one of the owners, said she would refund the rice but not the chicken since there was nothing wrong with it! I couldn’t believe my ears. How could we trust that my husband’s dish, even though there were no visible grasshoppers in it, was even safe to eat!

We were refunded for my grasshopper rice but not my husband’s chicken. This is a shame because if a restaurant has a random grasshopper hopping into customer’s food, what does that say about the cleanliness of the kitchen? Needless to say, we won’t be back.

Diner Review №61

This was the best meal we've had in month. Best fried rice ever. Everything was so good we want to order from here every day. Spring rolls, pad thai and taro custard were exceptional.

Diner Review №62

Diner Review №63

The food was very pricey and had no taste, worst food I've had in a long time

Diner Review №64

The staff are absolutely amazing and polite! The decorations inside makes the interior like a Thailand authentic restaurant! Lots of food options on the Menu! Don't forget to ask for spicy sauce and choose 3 and more to enjoy the meal! Chicken and cashew is just wow!

Diner Review №65

The food here is always delicious.
A quiet little place with good service.
We visit here regularly.

Diner Review №79

In my opinion, Thai Hut is the best Asian food in town. Definitely, the best Thai food in town. Some of my favorite dishes are the garlic chicken, ginger chicken, and red curry. I like that they have various levels of spiciness, so that everyone can be at their comfort level. The service is always great and the atmosphere is nice.

Diner Review №80

I found that every dinner that I have ever ordered, I love. Their food is very tasty.

My favorite place to go for curry!

Diner Review №84

One of the best my fav red curry i had.. Even though it was takeout service was amazing. Will definitely come back.

Diner Review №85

Absolutely phenomenal food and service! The ingredients are all fresh and high quality with a broad, authentic menu, and the gentleman running the establishment was very kind and courteous. A must-try spot in Rockford that has quickly become a daily craving of mine, especially for the Thai iced coffee and taro pudding. 15/10, should be on everyone's radar!

Diner Review №86

When are u guys going to reopen for dine in ?!!!!

Diner Review №87

Pregnancy cravings led us to the Thai Hut on our journey from Ohio to Wisconsin. Let me say I will be making the Thai Hut a MUST STOP every time I am going through Illinois! Very kind staff as well!

Diner Review №88

This place is delicious! Stopped on our way home from a friend's wedding and the service was so quick! Food is absolutely delicious and well worth it.

Diner Review №90

No dine in at lunch time. Incorrect discription

Diner Review №91

Diner Review №92

Not sure you'd call this truly Thai food. Its more on the scale of "not so bad" Chinese food quality. Veggies over cooked, fried rice not quality nor that tasty, portion sizes were definitely small for the huge price, their chili sauce tastes like the green labeled sauce you get at the grocery store, the frozen tea was not frozen...at all.

Cucumbers in the cucumber salad were rubbery and not crisp.

It wasn't THAT great and it wasnt THAT bad. Not worth the drive nor the hefty price tag.

They lady was nice though. The search for that authentic fresh Thai food continues.

Diner Review №93

If you’re looking for authentic or even quality Thai/ Asian food, this isn’t it. Otherwise, proceed at your own risk. Greatly overpriced for low quality, flavorless, and suspicious food. Will not be returning.

Diner Review №94

Carry out only, no dine in :(

Diner Review №95

Diner Review №96

Absolutely delicious. Wonderfully friendly staff, simple menu, and perfect food. This place offers customized spice levels, so you can have the taste of a curry without the fire. I reccomend a level 3 Panang curry, just to die for!!

Diner Review №97

Our favorite Thai restaurant. Sooo sad they closed.

Diner Review №98

This place has the best red Thai curry in Rockford. I have had Pad Thai and a few other curries, everything is great. The spring rolls are also amazing. Some Thai places I have been to it does not seem like there is a difference from one level of spice to the next, but after ordering two times I have found the perfect level here. It is consistently the same and spicy enough to make me happy. The service is always prompt and friendly. The serving sizes are big enough that if I order for lunch I can save half for dinner. I love dining in and look forward to when they open the beautiful dining room again.

Was passing thru and thought we would try this place. Food was ok.

Diner Review №101

Diner Review №102

Never had Thai food before. I'm so glad I tried it here.. food was delicious and had that perfect spiciness. Highly recommend 👌!!!!

Diner Review №103

Food was excellent. They're only open for carryout these days but that's no reason not to include this delicious food in your takeout regimen. I try something different every time I come here and have not been disappointed yet.

Diner Review №104

The food is tasty, and they are very vegan-friendly. However, I have very clearly ordered gluten free the last two times I've ordered, it has been specified gluten free, and yet I have had reactions consistent with consumption of gluten (given my gluten intolerance).

There was also an instance where I found a bug in my food. I was given a refund, but overall, just too many issues to go back.

Diner Review №105

Diner Review №106

Their food is always consistent (nearly 20 year customer), always fantastic. Very nice people. Thai Hut is one of my family's favorite places.

Diner Review №107

Good flavors, variety and portions. Good value.

Diner Review №108

If you love true authentic ethnic food you should eat here. Their curry dishes are the best I've ever tasted and I'm hooked.

Diner Review №109

Diner Review №110

Diner Review №111

The food I normally get from there is delicious, but this time it just seemed like they were rushed or something when making my order. The vegetables were dry and tasted like they had been steamed instead of stir fried, tasted nothing like what I normally order and when I called to ask about the issue, they basically told me that I must just be blind or something cus I simply stated the food was dry, and they told me there was sauce in it . Lmao. So if you want to eat here , just know it’s no refunds and they won’t fix it if it’s wrong.

Diner Review №112

Diner Review №113

Always pleasing to eat from here.
Chiken fried rice and Lovely chicken go well together.

Diner Review №114

Staying in Rockford for a couple of days and I was craving Thai food so I came to google and found this gem of a place. The reviews don’t lie. This place is amazing. 10/10 I ordered take out and the food was just as fresh and warm as I’d imagine inside. Do your self a favor and get the pad Thai and the soup 10/10 I’m definitely going back before I leave

Diner Review №128

Grabbed food here just yesterday. I'm from out of town and have never eaten at a Thai Hut restaurant. I ordered Chicken Cashew spicy level 3. This was honestly the most flavorful meal I have ever eaten. The cashews tasted as if they were soaked in sauce, the veggies and chicken were so plentiful and large. I loved that they added pineapple to the dish.

The man who we talked to was the sweetest as well.

Great experience. Will definitely order from here anytime I am passing through.

I received take out from Thai Hut on Sandy Hallow Rd. First off the staff is always very nice. The restaurant is always very clean. Usually I get lunch from this location but this time I got dinner for the family. We all got something different. Our entire order was correct (as usual). Its hard to call take out phenomenal, but it was. We ordered everything with #3 spice. I would highly recommend Thai Hut. The consensus at work is the Sandy Hallow location is the better location.

Diner Review №177

Horrible service, horrible food. Amongst the worst Thai food I have ever had.
Amongst other things we ordered 2 orders of soup. First one came just before the food, second one came when we were nearly done with the food. They started clearing the table while we were still seated. (and I mean a full clearing, not just taking one or two empty plates away) Sure, we had paid the check, but we're still sitting and finishing up our discussion.
