Horrible service by a woman who seemed bothered to be there. A lot of "we won't do that" and "what you wants". I had the yellow curry with tofu. I am a total fan of freezing tofu and then frying it up- it gives it a great texture. Unfortunately, they did not fry it, just cut it and warmed it up so it ended up being gummy. The curry itself had a good flavor. We kept hearing microwaves going off.. Also-Gambling machines in the back? Really? Won't be back.

Staff was friendly and atmosphere was ok. Could use a face lift. Food wasn't good at all. I was sick an hour after eating a quarter of what I ordered. I had toss the rest away.

At here twice a week for lunch when I worked near here. Could not get enough of the Basil Noodles or the Panang Curry. Service can be slow when the place is packed during lunch, they should hire more staff during the lunch hour. Also the Thai Iced coffee is awesome.

The food got a little better since I have been here last year. The decor got a little updated also. Plenty of parking but watch out for potholes. The place also now houses several slot machines complete with an ATM so you can eat and loose your house at the same time.

I've lived within a block of this place for 3 years and finally went. I actually never knew if they were still in business cause the place is always empty and there seem to be no card in the lot. I found the very minimal staff unpleasant. I figured since we were the only ones in the place at a prime time, she would try and be at least nice and thankful there is anyone in the place at all, you know, maybe we might want to come back? Guess not, cause they were very bitter. The food...bland. For a Thai place, there was very minimal vegetarian/vegan choices. I don't think the food is "Thai" at all. Final thoughts, nothing more than your average run-of-the-mill Chinese takeout.

I go here with co-workers once in a while for lunch. I have not been here for dinner. It is a bit strange, run by Thai people with hispanic-looking cooks. The restaurant itself is nice, decently large and the kitchen is open so you can always see what is going on. Now to the food... For full disclosure, I lived in Thailand for 5 years, am married to a Thai person and travel to Thailand regularly. So being fluent in Thai, I discovered that there is actually a secret to this restaurant if you want authentic Thai food. And I disclose this reluctantly because I don't want a rush of rude Americans demanding this secret. But there is a second THAI menu for Thai people to order off of. So if you can read Thai or at least speak Thai to the staff, they respond with bringing you authentic dishes. But again, I was ordering authentic Thai dishes off a Thai menu in Thai. I have never ordered off of the English main menu. Having said that, not everything was perfect off the Thai menu, but there were some great dishes. If I still have a picture of the Thai menu, I'll post for those who are interested. I think the owners Americanize the Thai food not realizing what well developed Thai palates Americans have these days. Unfortunately this results in bland food prepared by non-Thai cooks. But, of course, this frees up the Thai staff to cook for the occasional Thai person, or Thai-speaking person to cook authentic dishes off the secret menu!

Terrible food and service.The cook was our server and barely spoke English. A Spanish cooking Thai and serving NOT for me ! Poker machines must be keeping this place open.On a Sat-night my girlfriend and I the only ones except the owner I think and some playing the machines. Hope we don't get sick.Later not on our radar again.

This is a spoon you might want to wash again. Let me tell ya, Thai Spoon, they got some good ideas. They will bring you a thai dish---and they can do it spicey. But when I walk out of there, you know, I think to myself, my wallet and stomach are asking for more. Where's this fine dining? Why's the parking lot empty? Well, it's all kinda forgettable really.

I ordered carryout on grubhub and was pleasantly suprised with the results. The place is in a little strip mall right at the NW end of the large business park I have a number of clients in. I had a friendly experience with the wait staff and the crab rangoon and noodle dish I shared with a coworker were great!

Thai spoon is very close to work, and I thought I'd give it a go. I wish I had read Yelp, BEFORE, getting food there. The spring rolls, that came with the lunch special were ok. Cucumber, bean sprouts, and fried tofu, served with a honey-soy sauce in a soft rice wrapper. The sauce needed to be more soy, less honey to really be good. For lunch I order the Panang Curry with Tofu. It looked good, with a nice orange/red color, and a variety of vegetables. It tasted like nothing. Completely bland. I can't taste any chile peppers, no fish sauce. The dominant flavor is coconut milk. Blech. Try Happy Elephant, which is nearby and does much better in the reviews.

Ummm... its ok not bad. Close to work and ordered take out few times... food is a little on the bland side for Thai food I personally think. But not bad. Take out, for lunch... definitely do-able, but nothin to brag about. Spring Rolls were a little bland. Won Ton soup ok.... the won tons / noodles were a little over cooked. However, I did think it was a little on the pricey side for what you get... and i was not impressed enough to venture back for dinner. But lunch... its ok.

Was thinking hot Tom Yum Soup on a 1 degree day. So decided to try this Thai Restaurant by where I work. Arrived at the restaurant, one of the waitress told us please seat yourself and don't sit by the window because it is very cold. We wondered why, so we picked a table by the wall and sit down. Realized everybody in the restaurant sit down with their jacket on. Guess what? The heater was broken, another waitress came and told us. So we asked for some hot tea, they brought us some hot water and tea bags hoping to charge us. ( I was like no it is ok, since your heater is broken, it should be complimentary) Went with two coworker, we all ordered Tom Yum Soup, the soup is not hot (temperature hot) and the taste is not good, I can make a way better Tom Yum Soup out of Tom Yum paste. I ordered Panang beef, think this dish can never go wrong in any Thai Restaurant, but I was wrong. It is nothing like what I had before. One of my coworker ordered their lunch special which is Green Curry, it does not look appealing and it is tasteless. Another coworker order yellow curry and of course it looked nothing like what it supposed to be. Well, you will not get any authentic Thai food from this restaurant. If you decided to go, may be go on a warmer day.

Thai Spoon is actually very good for the price The food I've eaten so far has always been fresh and tasty. I'll actually give this 5 stars for the Panang Curry with Chicken and Beef Pad See-ew...their variety of salads are fresh too; not sure how the other dishes taste.) It's the only Thai Restaurant for miles in the Elk Grove Village area and surprisingly one of the better ones I've had in comparison to "hole in the wall" types. Actually Thai Food is one of my top ethnic cuisines (next to Indian, Mediterranean, Vietnamese and Japanese). Whenever I eat at my Thai friend's house, it is like a Thai market in their kitchen with several generations of family members cooking. I actually haven't been to Thailand but I'm pretty sure my Thai friend's family cooking is close to authentic. Thai Spoon is, not by any means, authentic but even though it's a bit "americanized", the quality of the food that I've eaten there has been very good so far. At least try the Panang Curry or the Beef Pad See-ew...you can't go wrong with those.

Good consistant food. I have dined in and had it delivered. A bit over priced, but very tasty

We carried out for dinner, hoping the poor Yelp reviews were more harsh than necessary. Unfortunately, I have to say I agree with them. The Tom Yum soup was ok - not the best but not as bad as some have said. It did have some spice/kick but not much cilantro or lemongrass flavor to it. I also had the Pad Thai, which was dry and bland. The noodles were all stuck together in clumps. There are definitely better places to get Thai. My husband ordered the sesame chicken, was was terribly over-fried. The chicken was almost black, which at first I thought was due to the sauce until I tried a piece and found it was just over-cooked. Too bad. I won't be going back.

Well I was in the mood for some wonderful Thai Food, and thought I would give the place a try. It was awful. I ordered Shue Mai, and I seen that they put it in the microwave before giving it to me! What was that about?? Not great, it was over cooked and not flavorful at all. I also ordered Tom Yum soup with shrimp, It was like some one stirred mud and put the bottom of the lake inside the plastic container to go. What the hell happened to the beautiful orange color, and the spicy flavor???? I threw it in the garbage! I also ordered the Chicken Panang Curry, it was flavorless. It smelled really good and the color was pretty, but when I put it over the rice, it had no flavor and no spice!! I was turned off my the non thai cooks, and one was handlng raw chicken, and never washed his hands after handling the bloody chicken bag. It was really gross and that was enough to make me not go back. I was very disappointed with the taste. Not authentic enough for me. As most Thai resturants in this area. They figure who will know the diffrence, While I am a white girl, I love authenic Thai food! This place can keep the flavorless food, the non Thai cooks, and the e-coli that the customers will get from the cooks not washing their hands! I do not recommed this even if it is in area! Yuk!!!! :{

I really don't like this place. It looks promising but on the two occassions I've been here for lunch, the food is uggghhh. I eat it because I'm hungry and I've paid for it. The first time I went, I found a hair in my food- plus it wasn't that good. A year later, food was just blah, very salty, no hint of spice even in 'spicy' dishes, and the rice was on the dry side.... Plus, they don't have a variety of lunch specials-only one per day!!! Weird.
