Contemporary Thai food that is pretty fresh. more

I stumbled upon this place one night while walking in the River North area. I'm a big fan of Thai food and was intrigued with the modern, upscale look of Vong's. Prices were perfect. Almost all entrees were between $12 and $18. Cocktails were some of the most affordable (and tasty) I had while in Chicago. Service was friendly and... more

VTK was the best thai food we have ever experienced. The "world's tiniest dessert menu" is a great idea for trying different sweets at an excellent price. There is a great atmosphere, plus the service is great as are all the meals. If back in Chicago, will definitly be back to Vong's! more

I cannot say enough about Vong's. The concierge at our hotel recommended it and it lived up to his ravings. The interior is ecclectic and bold with some Far East accents but not overwhelmingly so.

Beef Coconut curry was awesome with the beef sitting rare on top of the curry instead of mixed in - you saw and tasted the quality of the meat. we tried tempura crab fritters, steamed veg & rice and coconut chicken soup (... more

We came in at about 9pm and I thought it was closed because all the bamboo blinds were rolled down. I was surprised to see the place packed-- like sardines in fact.
