Spring pad Thai was excellent! We tried four courses and two appetizers and everything was divine. All fresh ingredients, large portions and the shrimp were large and not cheap. We offered to buy two Thai beer company mugs and they just gave them to us with shirts to match. Excellent service and nothing was neglected. We opted out of the $8.95 lunch special for larger portions but 4 beers, 4 courses and three apps was only $100 and we could not everything. We will be back

. Must Try. SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESS Ambiance- beautiful, very clean. Cozy ambiance Food- I love their food. I can eat at this place all week. I love their food so much. On top they are so friendly. Tom Yum soup with tofu is the best one in Chicagoland area. Basil fried rice have very good flavor. I tried Hot Chilli Garlic tofu— was good with nice spice to it. Loved it. Serving size- is good and better to be shared or for the table. Service- staff is very friendly. Quick service and they guide you. Always smiling staff.

Curry was watered down - more like a masaman soup. Basil stir fry was sloppy made. Pad Thai was not bad. Waitress was sitting and eating food while she didn't check on how our food was. It says on the menu rice comes with the meal. They bring you a tiny cup of rice and charge you for a refill 2 dollars. Will not recommend and will not return.

The atmosphere is very relaxing and the service was excellent! I highly recommend brecommemd the Basil Duck as it was delicious😋 The Tom Yum Soup was served authentic style, and the presentation was really neat. I wasn't impressed with the flavor of the chicken pad Thai. I do feel they used a lot of msg, unfortunately.

We were first-timers today and will definitely return. We had hot and sour soup---I loved their twist on it. It had a sweetness to it before the heat kicked in, and the extra veggies in it were great. Very unique flavor! The green curry chicken was so flavorful, one of the best I've ever had. Looking forward to our next visit!

First time visiting yesterday and will definitely be back! Food took longer than I would have liked but was worth the wait. I am gluten free and most items they are able to accommodate. Also lots of vegan options as well.

Very good Thai food in this restaurant. I stopped here on a Sunday at approximately 630pm. I was very surprised to only see one other couple eating in the restaurant at this time. While I was eating, I saw a lot of carry out orders go out and only one person came in to actually sit down and eat. I made negative logical assumptions upon walking in, seeing the empty restaurant. They proved my assumptions to be wrong. The food here was actually quite good and their prices are really reasonable for both lunch and dinner. The Yellow Curry Chicken and Tom Yum Soup were fantastic. They will let you adjust your level of spiciness when you order so don't worry about the food being too spicy if that is a concern. I am not from the area, otherwise I would definitely eat here more often. A+

Finally found this gem. Moved up this way 3 years ago and occasionally tried a few other Thai restaurants with no luck. Krystal Thai not only has the correct flavors but also has the spice that you would come to expect. On top of that our server was extremely pleasant and I even caught her running to deliver a side order. I went with medium spice but possibly could have gone with hot where that is still only 3rd out of 5 levels. I highly recommend this restaurant and we will for sure be back.
