The 20 Best Thai Restaurants In Chicago - Chicago - The Infatuation

"Noble Thai’s LED light fixtures, minimalist wooden tables, and grass wall accents make it feel a little bit like eating in a coworking space. But we’re pretty sure a WeWork membership doesn’t come with great khao soi and shredded papaya salad. And despite opening in 2021, most of the recipes at this Noble Square spot have actually been around for decades. The chef was originally at Opart Thai, and she’s carried over menu classics like tiger cry. With plenty of long tables and open space, it’s an ideal spot for large groups, but their bar (which has a skylight) is also great for a solo meal of pad thai, a cocktail, and some sunshine." - john ringor, veda kilaru, adrian kane
