    I have been there only twice and both times have been amazing! First time, my partner and I were walking by and decided to go in. We tried so many different things and all of it was so good! From the steamed dumplings, the hoy jor & the chive pancakes, to the mouth watering thai fried chicken, spicy fried rice, and pad khi mao. The portions are great and the flavor for everything is amazing. We also got the thai iced tea and thai iced coffee to try and they were so good we took another to go! Forgot to take pictures of the food as soon as we got some items in the table. Second time we went with a couple of friends and tried a couple of different things including the delicious green curry /ordered some of the same delicious items and didn't disappoint. The place is nice and cozy and the staff is sweet and helpful. 10/10 overall, I sometimes dream of the food!

    As someone who grew up around Elmhurst, this hole in the wall seems to be a staple in the community. I made sure to stop by with my dad after a morning of running errands in the area. It's been a few years since I've visited because of college, but not too much has changed except some minor tweaks to the menu. To start, we got two Thai Iced Teas ($4.25 x2) and two appetizers: the Chicken Bite ($8.95) and Fried Calamari ($13.95). For the main meal, we split the Shrimp Fried Rice ($11) and a Chicken Pad Si Lew ($10.95). Boon Chu's Thai Iced Tea never misses! I loved it all the previous years coming here and I still love it now. I think the Chicken Bite is a new add to the menu. It was alright but I think it would be more worth it to get popcorn chicken elsewhere and for cheaper. The Fried Calamari was also great and lightly seasoned, though I wish some pieces could've been a bit smaller, since some of the larger pieces felt somewhat batter-heavy when it came to the small crevices. The sweet chili sauce was delicious though at times overpowered the natural flavor of the appetizers so make sure to find a good balance when dipping. The Shrimp Fried Rice was delicious! But it would have benefited to have more shrimp. The Pad Si Lew was also great, though I would've preferred the noodles be softer. The Pad Su Lew also had a slight fishy taste compared to what I'm used to - from what I'd guess was Oyster Sauce. I personally didn't mind but it's something to keep in mind. As far as food goes, it might be worth skipping over the appetizers since the were roughly about (and sometimes more expensive) than the main dishes we got. The food was very flavorful and we were able to finish everything between two people for a decent price ($58.08) The restaurant itself is very quaint and small. I was surprised how quiet it was on a Saturday afternoon, but the ambiance was very cozy. Another thing I really liked was the design of the menu. All the items have an associated image which is great for someone like my dad who can't read English and likes to choose items at a new restaurant based on what looks good. Plus the menu is extensive! Seems like the perfect place to try something new each time. Service was great as well. There was one server who was very attentive. She brought over sharing plates and moved over an extra table when our dishes couldn't fit on ours. I'm a little biased since this restaurant holds a special place in my heart. While admittedly, it's not outstanding, Boon Chu is very charming and reliable, which is why I'll continue coming back time and time again.

    Always love their food in this tiny restaurant. It's always good and fresh. My go-to is the pad kee Mao with shrimp. I tried their crispy noodles with chicken and shrimp and it's not my favorite, prefer the Chinese version noodles, but there are so many options. I also love their chives pancake. I always take my food to-go, but noticed the diners wanted to use the restroom. Notice, this is a small restaurant, the front of the door says "No Restroom". Keep that in mind, they do accept credit card though and the service is always friendly.
