Yelp user Janice D. reviewed the restaurant on July 8. She wrote, "Food was amazing, service was exceptional and the restaurant looked super clean. Papaya salad is oftentimes made too fishy or too limey, but theirs was a perfect balance of flavors that didn't have any one ingredient overwhelming the dish."

Next up is Thai Terrace in the Arlington Heights. With 4.5 stars out of 172 reviews on Yelp, the restaurant has proven to be a local favorite.

Its menu consists of fried rice, curries, noodle dishes and soups.

Brooke S. said, "I cannot recommend this restaurant enough if you're looking for consistently awesome Thai food! Everything -- the egg rolls, the glass noodle salad, pad woon sen, tom kha soup, the green and panang curry (it's loaded with vegetables and they never skimp on the rice) -- is super flavorful!"

Thai & Fusion Ave.
9160 North Freeway, Suite 400

Thai & Fusion Ave. is another top choice, with Yelp users giving the eatery 4.5 stars out of 160 reviews.

Keli F. reviewed the restaurant on July 7. She wrote, "Quick, friendly service, plenty of variety on the menu. Got the tom kha, basil fried rice, drunken noodles and the shumai. All were tasty and fresh. The rice was cooked perfectly, not mushy like a lot of places. You can customize your spice level."

Travis C. wrote, "This is the best Thai food I've eaten point blank period. I visited San Francisco and none of the Thai places could touch Spice. The flavors just pop from the different spice combinations and fresh ingredients. The drinks were also refreshing and had nice proportions."
