J.J. Thai Street Food
Located along a bustling stretch of Chicago Ave. in West Town, J.J. Thai Street Food is a small BYOB restaurant specializing in food found in Thailand’s streets and markets. Unlike numerous other Thai restaurants in Chicago that serve a hybrid of Thai and Chinese cuisines in order to appeal to a wider American audience, JJ's focuses on offering traditional and authentic Thai recipes under the leadership of Chef and owner Jiranya Thosatheppitak.
J.J.’s serves excellent Thai street food. So you’ll find dishes like sai-krok e-sarn and crispy khao mun gai tod - which are so good that guests usually end up ordering a second plate. The soups here are also excellent - they’ve all got flavorful broths and springy noodles. There are less than 30 seats, so no matter where you end up you’ll be within seeing distance of the open kitchen. This is great, because if you see something that looks delicious, you can always add it to your meal.
