Reviews for Thai Cafe in Ottawa, IL
I get take out regularly. I consider it a blessing to be able to get Thai food in Ottawa freaking Illinois. Love me some Pad Wun... Sen. I rotate through the curries too. Massaman is great. Very cool art on the walls too. Check it out! Read more
This place is a little bit pricey compared to other Thai places I've been to, but it also has a very mom and pop feel: the owner... is also the chef and makes your food fresh. That being said the pad thai had good flavor (though it could have used a littlemore protein) and the pad see ew was a little salty for my tastes, but still flavorful. The fresh spring rolls were a greatappetizer with a little kick and a good dipping sauce (plus they're made with a rice wrap and not flour!). I'll definitelyfinish what I bought but I can't say I'd come back unfortunately, especially given the price. Read more
This restaurant has been serving great food for many years...from crab Rangoon to chicken pad Thai to their spring rolls and... chicken fried rice with pineapple...everything is delicious! Portions are generous and prices are reasonable. Ottawa, IL, islucky to still have this gem! Read more

Traveling to Wisconsin and had hankering for Thai. After a quick Google search of upcoming towns, we found this gem. It was a... bit off the interstate, but well worth the drive. Parking was readily available on the street out front. We were greeted by asweet lady who not only took our order, but was also the chef. We shared pad thai and spicy fried rice. Both were preparedquickly and were full of amazing flavors. The restaurant and restrooms were clean and well appointed. Should we ever passthrough this area again, we will surely swing by. Read more
It was not crowded when I arrived so I could choose where to sit. There is street parking nearby. My meal was underwhelming. I... ordered the pad see ewe with extra broccoli. Normally pad see ewe noodles are thicker and chewier than pad Thai noodles, but mydish had pad Thai noodles. There was not much flavor but there was A LOT of black pepper dumped on top. I could see it andremoved noodles with it because all I could taste was black pepper. Read more
Thai Cafe was authentic enough to make me feel I was in country. Staff was friendly and helpful in keeping my Togo order warm... while I ate my dinner. Easy to find on Hwy 23 right at the end of the one way section in town Read more
We are in town for the US Skydiving National Championships and wanted Thai food. We have a licensed military service dog that... was trained for 18 months by Rebulding Warriors in her service vest. We walked in and the owner refused us service. Weinformed her of the law regarding licensed service dogs and she didn?t care. I encourage all veterans to avoid thisestablishment, they don?t care for us! Read more
