Would recommend avoiding the buffet and order from the menu. The buffet looked more like a Chinese restaurant buffet than a Thai restaurant offering.Everything we had was wonderful.....chicken pad Thai, Moo-Sarong, lime shrimp and #19 one-bite noodle.Prices are very fair and service was good.

We left the nearby library and came to King Pho for lunch. We ordered spicy chicken basil and the shrimp & pork spring roll appetizer, as well as beef and mushroom entree. Everything tasted very good. The service was efficient. The lunch prices are reasonable.

Went here for 2nd time recently when I was back in the Chicago area. This place has an enormous menu and everything is good - must be over 100 choices at least. Visited with some family at my request since it was so good last time. I was again not disappointed. I had the Mapo Tofu which I had enjoyed in Nanjing, China. It was made different here with more sauce and silky tofu, but still very good. They are able to prepare dishes that are not spicy, as some of our party don't like hot food. Also able to kick it up to your desire. Everything was delicious. Salt and pepper scallop was delicious. I highly recommend Lao Sze Chuan and plan to go back next time I'm in town. Don't miss it! Also reasonably priced with nice sized dishes.

Since we were last here, the food and service have deteriorated somewhat. The wait person did not completely listen to what we wanted and was not attentive during the meal. The soup was very good, although lacking in the requested tofu. I asked for an order of summer rolls (fresh veggies wrapped in rice paper) for an entree and received it right away. They were good, though. My wife's seafood combo, she said, was just average - not very tasty. Our friend's chicken and veggie dish, he said, was very good.

Enjoyed our dinner at Makisu! I ordered the Salmon Teriyaki and it was delicious! The sauteed veggies which accompanied the entree were beautifully presented and excellent tasting as well. Other dinners ordered included Chicken Teriyaki, Scallop Crab Cake and the Tempura Small Plates - everyone was very happy. Miso Soup is included with the entrees.

5. Amitabul

This was our first visit to Amitabul, a Korean vegan restaurant. Amitabul is a Korean Buddhist saying meaning "The Awakening." The environment is lively yet in a nice happy way. The walls are loaded with Buddhist art and sayings. Our table had a prayer for our meal, which was a nice touch. The food has a Korean touch and was delicious. Of course, the food is purely vegan. There is not even honey as a sweetener since that, too, is a animal product of the wonderful bees. I had the Kimchi Tofu Stir Noodle and chose rice noodles over whole wheat. It was quite spicy but not heavy on garlic as is most kimchi. The veggies were cooked properly, and the dish was excellent. A friend had the Super Shitake Wonder Noodle Soup, which while he thought was of superior quality, it lacked a lot of flavor. Another friend ordered 12 Mandoo Vegan Dumplings. I had one, and it was superb, especially with the addition of a light plum sauce. Service was very good although a bit unpredictable. All in all, though, it was a great experience. Amitabul is the best vegetarian restaurant I've ever eaten in. It's open Tuesday to Saturday 12:00 noon to 9:00 pm.

We were in Morton Grove and decided to have dinner at China Chef. We were seated immediately and were brought tea and menus. We decided to go with something different, rather than two big entrees. We asked for the China Chef appetizer with four tasty ribs, 4 skewers of satay beef, two very large eggrolls and four pieces of crab Rangoon. Though the menu actually listed chicken fingers, we were brought the crab Rangoon because they were out of chicken fingers. It did seem like a lot of food, but being just a big hungry, we decided on a single regular entree with no extras. We chose the shrimp and walnuts. There were enough large shrimp on a bed of lettuce, along with a large cup of white rice. The shrimp were hot and tasty, and the walnuts added a nice taste and crunch. The total price was reasonable. The service was efficient. While there, we noticed a good deal of take-out traffic.

We are regulars of this authentic Japanese Restaurant. We seen major changes from this place from their expansion and changes of their personnel, and yet we are still a loyal patron. Though through time their portion servings seems to adjust we are economy the taste of their food remained to same - its exquisite. As you walked in they greet you in Japanese, courteously bring you to your table, answers your questions and after that authentic Japanese meal they send you a friendly vibes in Japanese.
