Muan Jai Thai Kitchen brings a more polished take on Thai to the Near North Side, with a menu that runs from classic stir-fries and noodles to showier dishes like Sweet Home Crab Curry and hot pot-style plates. Longer hours and a full bar make it as viable for late-night dinners as for pre-theater meals or casual dates.

Must-Try Dishes: Pad Thai, Green curry with vegetables, Spicy tuna roll
What makes it special: Thai dishes and approachable sushi share one room, making it easy for mixed cravings at one table.
