They have dishes that you don't find elsewhere. My favorite is the pork blood soup....it reminds me of visiting my relatives in Thailand.

I think for Chicago Thai food standards, it does the job and is on par with many other Thai places. Maybe I just didn't order exactly the right thing, but for people saying it's their best go-to Thai food spot, I am surprised, because my Pad See Ewe take out meal was good, but nothing to write home about. I do appreciate that they made it a little spicier since I had made it clear I wanted it spicy. It definitely wasn't up to the spicy level that I truly wanted, but I appreciate it. I do really like that they're open later than a lot of other Thai places in the area which makes it easier to order when you're getting late night munchies. That would be the main reason why I'd order back again from here in the future!

A familiar feel called home. You don't have to have travelled to Thailand or lived there to be drawn to this place and wrapped blanket of comfort food. The setup is pretty minimalistic. It's tucked away in a corner. But just go in and be ready to be blown away by the food, hospitality and more food. Vegans/ Vegetarians: This place is awesome. the chive dumplings are the best way to start of any meal. I have a soft corner for Pad Kee mao and this place knocks it out of the park. the Veg version is even better.The green curry or the panang curry. either way you never go wrong. Now for the Stand outs:If you like crab, do try the crab fried rice. The spicier you ask, the tastier it gets. Its my go to hangover cure. The Veg Lad Nar is actually the best thing on the menu, even for meat eaters. This late night spot has to be on your radar. go check it out and let me know if you like it.

Feed me some Me Dee. If you're around the Damen Brown Line station, head up to this little Thai place with authentic street food style and flavor. It has a bigger than expected menu for a place as small. A lot of classic dishes such as Pad Thai, various salads, and more. There's lots of healthy options, including vegetarian. Came here recently as part of a quickie date. It's conveniently located just up Damen Avenue from the Brown Line. The place looks pretty small from the outside. After heading in, the same could be said about the inside. There's only a few tables. Bring your own beer is the alcohol policy. Helps them save by not getting a liquor license, so it's understandable. As for the food, we got a few classics. The entrees are about $12, so it's moderately expensive but not bad for around here though. Almond Pad Thai was pretty awesome. This had almonds, bean sprouts, eggs, which I left off, onions, and a sweet tangy sauce. Good shit on a plate, and even better with some spice added in. She had the Kee Mao Noodles. It was a spicier entree. This had basil and jalapeños. Both come with a protein choice. We got tofu. For the price the amount was a lot. This was more affordable than many places. Good prices for good ass food. It's pretty easy for even those used to bland old American food to get into it. This for sure isn't like it's cheap, but compared to more popular places, this is affordable and there's no sacrifice in quality.

Our go-to place when craving thai food and open late. The place is small, a handful of tables, cozy with cute wall design. The service is good and the food is even better. All the dishes ordered has always been delicious. My fave is the crab fried rice.The only con is that the path to the bathroom and the room itself is not wheelchair accessible.

Me Dee is the spot! Thank god I don't live closer or I woulda been here if not everyday but every week!!! Everything on the menu is superb, so tasty, flavorful and it just hits. Haven't tried the whole menu yet but near damn tried a lot of dishes here and everything was excellent. Not sure if I want to call it a hidden gem since the last fell times we've been here, it has been busy and during dinner rush so you can see it's a popular Thai spot. Parking - It's meter parking right up front since Damen is one or the main streets

Cute mom and pop restaurant with cozy and warm feels. Lots of Thai people visiting this restaurant- very laid back and chill vibe. They have a "regular" menu with English and less spicy items. I noticed they have another menu that's in Thai with a lot of different options. I really enjoyed everything I got here. I think the portions were a little on the smaller side but everything was so good, I would come back. Thai green curry, tom yum soup, pad thai, glass noodles all sooooo good. I had the morning glory and my god was it delicious but so spicy I died. 10/10 would recommend this place.

I really loved my experience here! I ordered the fried rice and a crab & cheese (crab rangoons) and it was all very delicious. The service was really good too. I feel like places that are a smaller dining-in area can be intimidating, especially when we were the first party to be sitting in there tonight. But since we were confident and content, it really made for no big deal and there were many others who came in for dine-in/carry-out while we were there.

Got there at 11 pm and was happily surprised with the extensive menu and friendly service. We were the only people at this small place, but while we ordered and had dinner there were maybe 10 to 12 take-out orders prepared and picked up. A couple of them were large. I came because google maps said they have pho. This place is Thai, not Vietnamese, so no pho, but they are good at what they do have. We had fried Chinese sausage, glass noodle pork and cabbage soup, and celery tilapia, which has a lot more than just celery.
