We had such an amazing experience. The waiter was very kind and passionate about the food. We had the Penang Curry, Spicy Lime Leaf noodle, and papaya salad. The papacy salad (not pictured) tasted just like the one we had in Thailand- highly recommend! Also BYOB so we were able to pair it with one of our favorite Sauvignon Blancs!

The server, Chris, was very respectful and attentive. The food was the best part. This restaurant has never disappointed me once! And I know that every time I come back, it will only get better. My family loves it! The food is exquisite, so if you are in Chicago and have not had Thai food just yet, then Silom 12 has got to be on your list! If there is anything, I wish the space was larger. Other than that, it is a must visit. Highly recommend!!

Can’t believe we never tried this before. Everything we had was delicious. We both had soups for appetizers then stir fries for entres. Extensive menu. Portions were generous. Decor is very nice, beautiful baskets on display. We will definitely come back soon.

I wish I had noticed this restaurant sooner. The food is so fresh and delicious, and the service was great as well. I will definitely be returning to try the rest of the menu. I also had a Mojito and it was so refreshing.. my compliments to the chef!

Delicious Thai food with excellent service. We ordered a soup, a salad and a curry between us and it was the perfect amount. We ordered the vegetable Penang curry and loved that it wasn’t just bell peppers as happens sometimes in other places! There was a good variety of vegetables. Our server was very attentive throughout. We also loved the cocktail menu. This is a wonderful Bucktown option!

The food was amazing! Met a group of friends here and all ordered something different so we could try everything and nothing was disappointing. We loved all of it. Service was excellent, one server, but he handled all the tables, at the same, very well. Food came out steamy hot and tasted really fresh. The dinning room is cute, you recognize a few things from IKEA or Crate & Barrell and it reminds you that you are at a locally owned restaurant. It was nice to sit by the window and watch all the cars and people going by. With so many excellent food choices in Chicago, I was so happy I found this place!

Great high-quality Thai spot for a last minute walk-in! The fried chicken fried rice and the crispy coconut shrimp were our favorites. I’m glad we gave this spot a second chance, as the service was much quicker at dinner than our previous lunch experience.
