I have eaten here twice. The food both times was outstanding and was served uniquely! The Passionfruit Souffle [sp?] and the banana dessert is to die for. Some apetizers and desserts need slight assembly! Which is fun! I don't quite know how to explain it other than they had great plating. Their thai food was much different than any other thai restaurant I've been too. It had a different fresher flavor. It was a cozy nicely decorated environment.
Pros: food, plating, environment, service
Cons: parking

I'm not sure if I'd had a lot of Thai food before I had Penny's. What I do know is that I've had a lot of Thai food since Penny's--and nothing has compared. Nothing. Penny's does everything right. From the affordable menu to the fast, friendly service, it can't be beat. For me, the Pad Se Ew dish is legendary. I have so many fond college memories of snagging a table with friends and co-workers, opening a bottle of wine from across the street, and leaving so full that I might burst. Penny's is small and charming. There are a few locations in Chicago, but this one is my most favorite. Please go, and go again, and go again, and go again. Do it. For me.
Pros: Food, Service
Cons: Only in Chicago

When my parents were visiting, my husband and I wanted to take them to the best restaurants Chicago had to offer, and Arun's did not disappoint. Each appetizer was more tasty than the one before (and the presentation was great -- a cute carrot basket on one plate, an abstract fish on another), and the four entrees were each standouts in their own way (I loved the Massman beef and the lobster). And the two desserts were absolutely delicious! It truly was like being royalty in Thailand. I can't wait to go back!
Pros: fantastic cuisine, attentive staff
Cons: parking, not very romantic

A lot of food for a small price. There's a great outside dining area and it's very quaint inside. I get the Pad Woonsen and i could have it everyday.

I have consistently found that people either fall completely in love with Penny's or the complete opposite. That's why the reviews are so different. I'm a Penny's lover, but try it for yourself and ignore all these posts. It's certainly worth it for the money, even if it's not your favorite. Sliced Chicken, Gyoza and Pad Se Eu are some of the best. One note of caution - eat here - take out is NOT the same.
Pros: consistent, fresh ingredients, not overcooked

After the Cubs game this week, my wife and I had stopped having dinner at near by restaurant, Jitlada Thai House. Since our last visit in May 2008, after remodeled in May 2008, it totally changed, the food was every fresh, flavorful, and delicious. Cubs game night was very busy, now there are 17 tables which can seated 60 customers, the service was excellent, romantic candles light on every tables the servers were very police and clean. My wife ordered Shrimps Tempura, Green Curry with Chicken and I ordered Chicken Stay and Shrimps Pad Thai, Medium (little to hot for me). We really enjoyed our dinner at Jitlada Thai House. My wife and I voted 5 Stars on Food, Service, Cleanness, and atmosphere. We are highly recommended.
Pros: Free Parking (30 Cars)
