Royal Thai

It is an order and then sit down place, but it is still comfortable to eat there. They serve the food in plastic so you can add a lid and take it with you. The food was amazing!! They cooked my pork perfectly. Not to hard like many other places. I had spice level 2 and I could feel it in my mouth but it did not linger. My husband had spice level 3 and it was what he was expecting. His nose started to run toward the end of his dish. As for dessert, the taro custard was perfect. The sweet rice melted in your mouth and the custard was smooth and silky. The staff was wonderful and brought our food to the table. They have outside seating if you prefer. The lunch special comes with one egg role. We were so hungry we forgot to get a picture

Have you ever had such a disappointing dining experience that you couldn't wait to go home to write a review? Not because there was hair or a dead bug in the food. Not because you waited 2 hours for cold food. Not because the servers were rude. Simply because it was so disappointing that you felt you had to warn others. I want to be clear that this review is not about the two young ladies who took our order. They were cordial and polite enough. This is not about them. This is about the dining experience and the food. I gave this place two stars. One for being open, and another for the ample parking. There aren't a lot of Thai options in the area, so we really wanted this to be good. The first disappointment came when we weren't seated by a host/server. Instead, you're given menus, asked to take a seat, and when you're ready, you place your order at the counter. You then pay for your food and expected to tip at this point in time. So one has to ask oneself, "Will my food taste better and will I get better service if I tip well?" So I tipped and hoped for the best. We then had to gather our own water in a styrofoam cup, styrofoam plates, and plastic utensils. The food came out pretty fast, and was brought out in plastic take out containers on a metal tray and placed on the table. So at this point, we really wanted the food to taste good. Unfortunately, we were disappointed again. The Pad Thai noodles was definitely not Pad Thai noodles. They served it with peanuts but it was definitely NOT Pad Thai. It tasted like it was burnt, but it wasn't. The seafood curry was so watered down that it really was just yellow-orange colored water. The shrimp was most likely frozen cooked shrimp in a bag, The vegetables were certainly not fresh and also probably frozen in a bag. Our son couldn't even take more than a couple of sips of his chicken (but can't find the chicken anywhere) ramen. So we were just done and ready to go. We grabbed some lids for the take out containers, none of which fit properly. We should have just thrown out the food, but it seemed like such a waste for a $60 meal. Anyway, if you're looking for a nice dining experience, this is not the place to go. If you're looking for a cafeteria experience with food that tastes like it was just reheated frozen food, then this is the place for you. But honestly, you're better off going to a place like Panda Express. You know what to expect, you can see the food being cooked, and it's half the price.This was NOT a "Royal Thai" dining experience.

Absolutely love the food and staffs are very friendly. I love the decor of the restaurant, it's small and cozy. Foods are delicious and I would definitely love to come back rest hr good again. Deft! definitely recommend.

Good price. Nice portion. I finding Thai food around great wolf lodge and I try this place. Very good price and chili is spicy. I like it

Serendipity. What a great Thai restaurant. It's a very nice place, decorated with high quality Thai art, it's really very lovely. Very close to I-94, so it's my new designated meeting spot for friends from the Chicago area to meet me half way from the Milwaukee area. I don't know it I said that right, it's about halfway between Milwaukee and Chicago in distance. Good selection of common Thai restaurant choices and some more unusual stuff. I haven't been there enough yet for them to serve the food up properly spicy but it's tasty nonetheless. They seem to do most of their business as take out, but the place is so elegant and yet affordable, I highly recommend you come in and sit down to eat. The one problem is that they rely almost entirely on non-recyclable disposable serving ware.

Coming from Vegas, this is a good Thai place as we can't find much Asian options around the area. We love the pad see ew (pork) spice level mild while my husband prefers it spicier so he got the highest spice level (and he regretted it , but so this place gets a point for spiciness), combo fried fried and their wontons are pretty good!Can't say much for service as both times I've tried I did Uber eats and picked it up, but looks like the restaurant no one really dines in and rather take it to go as the inside was quiet and clean! However both times, orders were accurate.

I love this place we go here every time we come to 6 flags. We always get the seafood. Yelp has them listed as a halal restaurant. I Called the restaurant and the kitchen confirmed they DO NOT HAVE ANY HALAL MEAT. When they are listed as halal it is because of the seafood options and not because the meat is halal.

Ordered take out from here tonight and it was delish! Ordered online and it was quick and easy. Food was ready just at the right time, freshly made and hot. The inside is decorated beautifully, calm and peaceful with a few smaller tables for dining. I absolutely loved the crab rangoons, they came with a yellow sauce maybe pineapple. Different from what I'm typically used to see w Rangoons but so so good. The pad Thai was Great. Filled with veggies which I love. Ordered 2 different fried rices and they were good and each had a unique flavor. We did order medium and they were not spicy at all so idk if it's just lightly spiced or they forgot. So glad we checked out a different thai spot in the area!

This place is one of my favorites in Gurnee! They are quick and make the process so easy for pick up. I've sat to eat there a couple times before and during lunch hours it can get pretty busy! Regardless, they are attentive and polite. I am a huge fan of their delicious shrimp dumplings! I always look forward to spending time eating at Royal Thai. The workers there are also really kind and make it a welcoming environment. :)

I had the Pad Thai and it was delicious! The crab Rangoon were also very good, I would highly recommend. I did an online pickup order, the food was hot and ready on time. The inside was quiet, a little dark but it had a good mood for a Thai restaurant. Highly recommend
