Golden shrimp toast : One of those unexpected unions of two foods. A more proper description might be shrimp French toast : minced shrimp on white bread , coated with egg and deep fried. Read more

Our go-to restaurant . Amazing food and taste! Keep coming back to it.
Simply a great restaurant . Nice to go around brunch time but can be busy during late afternoons. Nice decor and fantastic asian food .
Exactly the lunch I was looking for. Also they have their own beer .
Great spot for appetizers , drinks and dinner . They are running specials on their appetizers between 3-6 pm. I luv the chicken satay and chicken potstickers - especially with the plum sauce . Yum!
Pomegranate ginger ale , shrimp summer rolls , panang curry :) very fresh, great service.
Veggie potstickers are sooo good! I love how well they cater to food allergies, so so accommodating.
Seems the Gluten free choice was a bit overwhelming with the orange flavor ...also be careful with the extra spicy stuff. They go all in on spicy . Ginger ales were good.
Had the pad Thai and the yellow curry chicken . Both were great!
Huge portions as usual in Chicago but really tasty. Feels like truly Asian
Fiery Chicken Dumplings to start. Thai hot pepper chicken as entree. Wash it down with a Sapporo or the local Three Floyd's on draft .
Try chicken potstickers , they come with three delicious dipping sauce and as a main course, take a speciality Thai beef lettuce wraps - h-e-a-v-e-n on earth! Read more
Pomegranate ginger ale , hot and sour soup and chicken potstickers was delicious.
Order spicy sesame peanut noodles as appetizer . You'll thank me !
If you're an adventurous eater with no allergies or picky little requirements, ask your server/ bartender to surprise you. Not a bad dish on the menu.
Spice your Meatless Monday up a little with Big Bowl's Spicy Thai Green Vegetable Curry . Guaranteed to add a kick to your day.

The best food!! Try a chefs dinner the next time you are there! You choose your protein and sauce!!
Love the way Lettuce Entertain You restaurants handle their gluten free offerings. Also, used the Foursquare special and got a free ginger ale . Awesomeness.
Potstickers are great. Hot pot shrimp extremely impressive. Good clean flavours
The whole menu - it's quick, tastes great. Always enjoy eating here.
Some of the best Pad Thai I've ever had. Fantastic service!
When they say spicy they actually mean spicy . Also the orange chicken is bomb
Delicious. A bit expensive but really good.
Try their spicy green chilli sause ... the best hot sauce I have ever had!
You can substitute cauliflower rice for regular - score!

I love the potstickers & chicken dumplings ! The stir fry is some of the best I've ever had but parking is a pain. Read more

The least expensive food you'll ever get from Patricia Yeo! Still very delicious!!!p
Stir fry is awesome! And the lemonades are incredible!
Order the pad thai extra hot for an awesome kick! The spare rib appetizer is delish.
Always friendly staff . Always 1st class service.
Chicken potstickers and hot and sour soup .

Solid food but nothing special. The stir fries are the way to go; portion sizes are hefty.
Beef lettuce wraps are great! Friendly servers and great food!
The best ramen I've had in Chicago. Go solo to avoid the wait. Half spice is great, if you're sensitive to spice get no spice and ask for the spice on the side. - Chase Turner
Great food, huge portions and inexpensive! One of my favorite spots in the city. My favorite: pad see ew - Emily Suied
They now serv a large verity of food and alcoholic beverages. The awesome reclining oversized seats are the best ever. - Sandra Frazier
