"First, the food was picked up so it was fresh and tasty overall. It was my first time eating at Red Ginger, so I was a bit taken aback by the restaurant itself, as it could use a bit of updating and a fresh coat of paint. But, looking past that and acknowledging that it appeared clean...I ordered the following. Chicken with black bean sauce extra spicy, Crispy Pan Noodles with Chicken and veg, 2 regular egg rolls, wonton soup and hot and sour soup. The customer service was excellent and as I said the food was delicious overall. Now, the big question, will I return? To be honest I do not know If the following things change I would...1. Add some other vegetables to the egg rolls other than cabbage and a few onions. I know that they also have a Special egg roll on the menu but would a few carrot shreds and a bit of green from cilantro cause a major cash loss? 2. Five Spice Powder is a fickle mistress. Add too much and she will overpower the dish, add to little and that authentic Asian flavor we know and love will seem lost. What is interesting about this is I asked for extra spicy and received none and at times found the 5 spice overwhelming. Thank goodness I had my own chili ️ oil at home. I appreciate the food we had last night and who knows what the future holds, but I think Red Ginger could be 5 star with just a few tweaks...they are almost there.

"Title: "A Thai Gastronomic Journey to Remember at Silom 12 "From the moment I stepped into Silom 12, nestled in the heart of Bucktown, Chicago, I knew I was in for an exquisite culinary experience. The restaurant 's ambiance beckoned me with its warm and welcoming allure, and the food, oh the food, exceeded every expectation.Our culinary adventure began with an absolutely divine Crab Rangoon. The first thing to note was its presentation I had never seen a Crab Rangoon wrapped quite like this. Folded delicately like a bow tie, it was as pleasing to the eye as it was to the palate. The balance between the crisp fried exterior and the luscious mix of crab meat and cream cheese within was spot on. The added crunch of celery and the tangy punch of sweet chili sauce elevated it to a level of perfection I hadn 't experienced before. This unique spin on Crab Rangoon was hands down the best I 've ever had.Next up was the Steamed Mussels, steamed to perfection in a spicy basil lemongrass broth. The mussels were plump and tender, their subtle briny flavor intermingling wonderfully with the fragrant, spicy broth. The depth and complexity of flavors were simply mind blowing.The culinary journey continued with the Tom Ka soup with chicken. Its creamy richness, punctuated by the tartness of lime and the heat from chili, was both comforting and invigorating. The chicken was tender and beautifully infused with the flavors of the soup. It was, without a doubt, a bowl of soul satisfying goodness.The grand finale was the Pineapple Fried Rice with Tofu. Our server recommended this combination, and he couldn 't have been more correct. The rice was perfectly cooked, each grain distinct and carrying the flavors of the various ingredients. The sweetness of the pineapple offered a beautiful contrast to the savory fried rice, while also lending a refreshing crunch. The tofu was a stellar addition, its delicate flavor and texture forming a lovely counterpoint to the overall richness of the dish. I never knew fried rice could taste this good.In conclusion, my dining experience at Silom 12 was nothing short of phenomenal. From the quality of the ingredients to the mastery of flavors, it was clear that every dish was crafted with care and love. If you 're in Chicago and craving for authentic Thai cuisine, Silom 12 is a must visit destination. Five stars all the way"

"My family and I were in the area and we were starved. We had a craving for Thai food and this spot was right down the block from where I parked. It was empty when we walked in. The man and woman working there that day were very nice. At first, we were just going to order take out but by daughter wanted to sit and eat so we decided to order a bunch of apps and then order mains to go. They have a small dining area but gave plenty of seating, with many tables and a bar area for additional seating. We order a lot of food to try while we were there and the staff was super attentive and very pleasant. When we're were finishing up our food, we ordered our mains and everything arrived to the table, well packaged with care and ready for transport. All of the food was exceptional. Grub Rundown: Tom Kha I have grown to love this coconut broth soup. This is the second place that I've had a really good bowl. It wasn't too thin and everything was flavorful. It did not lack in anything. Crispy Dumpling not my fave but was OK. The filling is a decent portion and I enjoyed the sauce that accompanied the dish. Lava Calamari these were really tasty. I just wish there were more. Chicken Wings these were really good. The crisp is perfect and the chicken was moist. Spring Rolls these were OK. Nothing extra special about them but they're good. Chicken Pineapple Fried Rice always a banger. You can't ever go wrong with this staple. Pad Thai Noodle I ordered this with chicken and had them make it extra spicy. It still wasn't as spicy as I would have liked and there could have been more noodles in the dish but it was good. Duck Red Curry this dish is pricey but it is very good. They packaged it with great intent to ensure that the dish maintained its quality for time of consumption. Everything was separated. The duck remained crispy because the curry was packed separately. It was soooo good! Coconut Ice Cream we shared this in the restaurant and it was yummy! Imthey serve dot on a plate with a chocolate sauce drizzle. The ice cream has pieces of coconut in it and my daughter absolutely loved it. If in the area, I would definitely go back. The items are way pricier than Thai food used to be, back in the day, in that area, but the food is good and the service was impeccable. After we sat down to eat, the place filled us perry quickly and that's saying something."
