This is my favorite Thai place in the area by far. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that I'm not a fan of ALL the dishes. I almost always get the Pad Thai, either chicken or shrimp. Unlike other places, both are cooked well, not dry. Also, the sauce is not too sweet which I have found... More

Nice place for Thai food. Menu is good. My favorite is the cashew chicken. A very neat and clean dinning room. Seating can be tight. They bring the food as each dish is finished. Service is friendly and street parking on Madison is generally available. Overall a pleasure experience and this is my place for Thai food on Oak Park.

In my opinion this is one of the better Thai restaurants in the area. I have tried many of the local ones and keep coming back to Mama Thai. The food is always fresh and nicely spiced. The restaurant appears clean and the staff is great.

I do like Mama Thai however I believe that their prices are higher than most thai places I have visited around Oak Park. I'm always a fan of the Thai Iced Tea (sooo good!), the edamame and fried rice is also a winner. The space itself is a little cramped so if you go with a big group make sure... More

Great Pad Thai! Delicious food and really good prices. One downfall- cramped seating.

This place is quite good compared to other Thai restaurants in the suburbs. The waitress was very friendly and explained in detail most of the dishes to my relatives. The flavors are above average in my opinion and not very hot or spicy so don;t worry to ask the regular spicing noted once menu. Portion sizes are good to satisfy... More

Our family and friends have been coming to this restaurant for many years now, and it never disappoints. The food is always flavorful and fresh--from the Vietnamese Shrimp Rolls, to the pot stickers, to the main dishes. (For instance, we recently had tilapia in curry sauce --delicious--and we love the red curry.) The restaurant is reasonably priced, and there is... More

My wife and I love this place. Their food is lovely. Authentic Thai with a large menu, cooked to order. My wife asks for things to be made 'Thai hot' because they won't give you the full heat unless you make that clear. We eat here regularly and really enjoy the pad siew, green and red curry, and of course... More

Love this place. It never disappoints. One of the best Tom Yum soups anywhere. The large serving is enough for a couple of meals, so take it home and enjoy again. Also had shrimp pad thai which was wonderful. Easily the best Thai in the area.

This is one of the better small Thai places you will find in the area. The food is very good (not spectacular), and the environment is tasteful and quite charming (no dragons/mirrors). Perfect for a informal evening with a friend or partner. Chicken Pad Woonsen (glass noodles) is a favorite. Small restaurant but neat as a pin and generally has... More
