Saimai Thai

I just ordered delivery from SaiMai and I am NOT disappointed! I got the drunken noodles w chicken and held the tomatoes and substituted broccoli. It was perfection. I ordered medium spicy and that wasnt too spicy but definitely had a kick, it has the right amount of sauce on it, not too dry, not drowning in liquid. The chicken was a thinner cut and a nice quality of meat. The vegetables tasted fresh and crunchy and overall the dish was delicious! I will definitely try this place again to explore other dishes!

We got take out for dinner and decided to try a different place than the usual Thai place. The place was set up only as take-out and delivery that day which works for us. Parking could be a challenge. Our little kids enjoyed their pad see wee which was wonderful for any parent that have fussy eaters. We got Mongolian beef. It wasn't prepared they way I expected which would be more Chinese stir-fry style with lots of onions but this version was still very good. The basil chicken was spicy but the flavor was off and wasn't as great as other Thai places for me. We also got egg noodle kee mao which was meh. maybe it would have been better if i stuck to the usual rice noodle.

Food was ready fast and my order was exactly what I asked for, and I can be a little picky. Finally a place that understands what I mean by "extra spicy". I can't remember the last time I told someone that, and didn't end up adding hot sauce. No hot sauce needed here. No soy sauce or anything else for that matter. Great Pescatarian options! I just ate my food a block away and I'm literally thinking about going back already. I always try to give at least one pro/con, so I'll say there lobby could use some organization. Lots of stuff stored in the seating seating area that would probably be put away somewhere out of sight. If this sounds like a petty complaint, you might be right. But I literally have no other complaints.

I can't stop thinking about this food! I went on a day trip to Chicago for work and stopped here for lunch. I ordered two meals to-go, one for lunch and one to bring home that night to Indiana. The lunch basil chicken fried rice was awesome. I enjoyed all the flavors that would surprise you in each bit. But the chicken green curry I took home was possibly the best I had ever tasted. I intended to share it with my husband so I told him about it before coming home. I wished I had tasted it first. That food wouldn't have made it home. I would have hid it before having to share it! Planning a personal trip to Chicago soon!

I’m not one to write a review for restaurants, but this one really blew me away! I’ve had curry in Thailand many times, and have been on a mission to find a place in Chicago that tastes just as good. I got the green chicken curry and would definitely give it five stars!! Great delivery service as well. I hope to eat here in the future when they open their dine in 🙂
