I love the Snail. The owner is super sweet, the food is good. I'm vegetarian but friends like that duck is a standard option for protein. I can't wait until we can eat in the dining room again
False advertisement was mislead by the online menu . Ordered shumai at 7 pieces was delivered 2 boxes and when they arrived there were 4. When I called they told me they changed the menu. The rest of the food was okay. Just okDisappointed
excellent Thai food delicious
Restaurant is very homey. Food tastes homemade, hot and delicious! Loved my Pad Thai dish
Used to be hands down my favorite restaurant on the south side of Chicago. I’ve tried half the menu and everything used to be excellent! The staff, too, was so welcoming and friendly!! Sadly, this place has gone steadily downhill over the past 4-5 years, seemingly exacerbated by the pandemic in the last year. During the entire year or so of the worst of the pandemic, I tried very hard to support as many local establishments as possible. I kept getting takeout here even when we had a few meals back to back that were atrocious. Finally, one of them was so bad that I went back in to ask the employee to make us some thing else. He refused, saying “ this is how we always make it.“ well, no, I’ve been coming here for 15 years and this is not how you make it. And anyway, that is not how you treat a customer whether they are a regular, like I was, or a first time visitor to your restaurant. If a customer tells you the meal is in edible, you make them something else.It breaks my heart to consider this now one of the Worst restaurants around rather than my absolute favorite spot.
Found The Snail by accident 21 years ago when I worked in Hyde Park and it's worth the commute from Indiana to get my drunken noodle fix. Lovely owner and family run business. A wonderful neighborhood restaurant in Hyde Park
I ordered a dish I've never had here, or before: Yum Nua Beet Salad. It's so good! It's also a nice alternative if you are avoiding carbs as I am. I also got the Green Tea Bubble Tea for old times sake
I have been eating at The Snail Thai food for over 20 years.
