We loved their crispy fried chicken. The shallot topping was flavorful and the sticky rice was really soft. I also recommend their fried rice. About the curry, the crispy noodle was good but it was so little, the rest are soft noodle. So only order it if you really into curry.

Been here before and everything is always great. This time we ordered the pork ribs, crispy chicken and phat pad Thai. All were fantastic. The servers are very friendly and helpful too.

Love going to Same Same! They now have gluten free menu indications on their online menu. Before they did this, I was getting conflicting information from the waiters in regards to gluten free options. I usually get the Thai green curry which is excellent! My friends and family have tried most other dishes and they are always excellent as well.

Pretty good Thai restaurant. Really great service, despite being busy. Food takes awhile to come but it’s really fresh and pretty delicious. 4 stars because it was pretty expensive but it’s on Roscoe street so not surprising. Indoor and outdoor seating- outdoor seating out front and out back which is really nice. Would go back to try their fried chicken and other curries.

Affordable Thai bites in Roscoe Village. Hat Yai fried chicken and spicy fries were delicious. Felt like thai flavors mixed with southern/soul cooking. However, Phat So Ew was a tad too salty and sour for our taste while the Tom Yum soup was bland. Mango sticky rice could’ve been better, the mango wasn’t sweet so as a dessert it wasn’t up to the mark. They got lagers from Thailand which was a nice touch. With 2 patios and indoor space there’s ample seating. Portions are large and you can get plenty for 2 under $30. Staff is friendly and welcoming. They don’t take reservations at the moment but you can call ahead to check if they’re busy. Will be back to try their curries and give it another try to see if it was just a bad day.

The food quality is excellent! It was an amazing dinner, our first time here. We experimented. We had panang curry, Neua Naam Tok, Khao Soi Gai and Sii Khrong Muu Yang. All prepared like a 5 star kitchen.. it was BAM with flavor and spices but not over done.. the service was excellent and personal… the Thai ice tea was also refreshing and perfection… I cant wait to come back and work my way thru their menu!
