Readers Recommend: The BEST Places for Thai Food in Champaign-Urbana and Beyond

September 30, 2016 By From The Editors

Chambanamoms.com Readers Recommend Champaign-Urbana Thai RestaurantsCraving Thai food? From pregnancy cravings to lunch time treats: Our readers help you out with their favorite Thai restaurants in Champaign-Urbana and beyond.

Editor’s Note: Recommendations are supplied by our Readers on our Facebook page and are not endorsed by Chambanamoms.com.

Thara Thai, Champaign: “Definitely Thara Thai. They will customize anything and the food is always good. I feel like people don’t know about it because it’s out on Bloomington Road, but I think it’s the best Thai food in town!”  “Thara Thai is a best kept secret in town!” “Their pineapple rice and coconut dessert are amazing!” “Definitely Thara Thai! So incredibly good. Be prepared for a wait, not usually for a table, but the food takes a while to come out. So worth the wait, though. Never had a bad experience or left less than over the moon for the food.” “Pad Thai is amazing, and the mango sticky rice? Amazing!”  Editor’s Note: See why we think Thara Thai is a good place to go for date night. 

Siam Terrace, Urbana: “I am a vegetarian and can choose tofu, seitan, or veggies for any of their dishes. So delicious and very accommodating.” “Siam Terrace is amazing!” “I LOVE their vegetable Pad Thai with extra peanuts and lime slices.”

My Thai, Champaign:   “We like My Thai and that we can order and pay online (we pick up our order and it’s ALWAYS ready and waiting). They offer coupons for a free appetizer with two meals pretty frequently and there is usually enough for leftovers.” “My absolute favorites at My Thai are the Massamun curry, mango curry, and the best crab rangoon in town!”   (My Thai closed in 2019).

Pho Cafe Thai Kitchen, Champaign:   “It’s right near campus, get the ginger!”

Basil Thai, Urbana: “The peanut lovers shrimp is so good!”

Y Thai and Chinese Eatery, Champaign:  “Pad Thai from the Y Eatery on campus was a pregnancy staple!”

Golden Wok, Champaign:   “We usually get our Pad Thai from Golden Wok.” “Golden Wok has good prices.”

Taste of Thai, Rantoul: “If you don’t mind a little drive, Taste of Thai in downtown Rantoul is amazing!”

Bangkok Thai, Urbana: “Bangkok Thai on Cunningham in Urbana.”
