Jessica Lee: The food here is quite excellent! Greatly enjoyed their "The Red Pig Pair", a set of beef meatballs, and their crab rangoon for starters. I had their Thai Pepper Steak, which I highly recommend.
Becca P: TOM YUM NOODLE SOUP. It will clear your sinuses. Perfect for winter. So delicious.
Brett Lawrence: Favorite Asian food in the area. Takeout specials come with gyoza and an egg roll. Great dining room too.

Park · River North · 16 tips and reviews
Donna Johnson: This park is small but has something for everyone. A walk along the river, hills for picnics, a lot of benches for reading, a dog park, a playground for kids and it is near restaurants.
Kevin Newby: On a cold, sunny day, lay down on the play surface and act like a cat.
Kenny K: Expanded park reopened 7/19/12 with more swings, patio tables w/shade covers, and large half dome climbing structures. Renamed Montgomery Ward Park. Finally! They got it right this time.

Michely: Fyi: only 6 tables. Soy fish & soy shrimp? Yes, pls!
Jenny: The peanut sauce is the best I've ever had. I'm not vegan or vegetarian, but I'll take soy chicken from here over real chicken anywhere else. Even the meat-loving boyfriend likes it!
Ted M: Love this place - GREAT sauces and flavor!!
