LAO AND THAI SPICY NOODLE REVIEWS

Absolutely loved this little gem! My sister and I stopped by for a weekday lunch, kind of on a whim since it’s close to her work. Small spot, seemed like it was run by just two people, but they really put their heart into it. We ordered the red curry with rice and spring rolls, plus the Pad Thai noodles with tofu. Everything was freshly cooked, and you could tell the chef took his time to make sure it was just right. The food came out piping hot, which was perfect on what felt like the coldest day in Chicago. The flavors were incredible—authentic, comforting, and exactly what we were craving. I’d 100% come back next time I’m in the area. It’s a cozy little place with great food and genuine care. Highly recommend!

This is one special place here! Some of the best Lao & Thai food in Illinois maybe even the whole Midwest! My girlfriend brought me here a few weeks ago and as soon as I took the first bite I was hooked! Everything is delicious and freshly prepared. My favorite so far is the Kau Mee & those super crispy Chicken Wings. I can’t wait to come back.

Tasty food, large portions, and great prices. We had various rice and noodle dishes as well as appetizers and everything tasted great. Would highly recommend and the prices were very reasonable.

THAI TOWN RESTAURANT REVIEWS

The Rama noodles delight is truly one of the most delicious things I’ve ever eaten! I’ve ordered it so many times and it’s never once been bad. So many fresh veggies and the noodles and sauce are delectable! One of my favorite things to order from here. The fried shumai are super delicious too and the sauce they come with is phenomenal. Love this spot.

What a cute Thai restaurant with friendly service! Ordered myself Rad Nha dish and it was yummy. If you’re around the neighborhood, this is a highly recommended spot to check out for quick Thai food fix.

I have been to many many thai restaurants. This place has the best tom yam and pad kee mao!! The cook/ the owner is a 65 year old thai woman, just so lovely. Definely come back.

WHITE PEARL RESTAURANT REVIEWS

Delicious, authentic food! My Chicken Pad Thai was the perfect texture, right balance of noodle and protein, and the sauce was just how I like it, deliciously sweet with a hint of sour. The dish was so flavorful and textured, and my mouth filled with saliva as I watched it cool. I felt welcome immediately and the staff was extremely friendly and professional. The atmosphere was very cool, I loved the decorations! I definitely recommend going here. The prices are very reasonable as well.

I'm vegan, and I got delivery from here on a whim, because they had vegetarian options and I wanted to try a new place. I'm always reassured when a menu has labeled vegan items, so I figured this was a safe gamble. I got the eggplant garlic sauce and it was one of the best eggplant dishes I've ever had. The salt and pepper tofu wasn't what I was expecting, but it was also super delicious. The vegan pho was fine, but I'm not a big pho person to begin with. Plus, the portions are quite generous so I can nibble on it for a few days!

One of the best Vietnamese/Thai food in the area. I have been going there for about 20 years since moved to Chicago. Even now I am not close to this restaurant anymore,I still find time to go. The best dishes for me are those wide rice noodle dishes, delicious. I think they are even better than the ones I had in Thailand and Vietnam. Coming back again, everything is still excellent.
