Xang Thai & Sushi (Old Lovely Thai)

The food is not the same! The Thai food is tasteless. We won't be back.

Weve been customers for a long time and were very wrong in our skepticism when it reopened as Xang Thai & Sushi. The new owner is super friendly and helpful in making recommendations from the new and improved menu. My old favorites (Rama Chicken & Tom Yum Soup) are even better than before! The addition of bento boxes and a sushi bar is fantastic and the atmosphere is really nice. Well done!

Lovely Thai (now called Xang Thai & Sushi) has been our favorite Thai place in Lake County. Their food is delicious and well-, made, and everyone there is always very friendly and welcoming. The spice levels are great, with their highest "for-people-not-from-Thaliand" level at the bottom of Thai spice levels, so anyone can enjoy whatever amount of heat they want even within those levels. We love this place - thank you Xang Thai & Sushi, fka Lovely Thai!

First time trying after new ownership and I'll admit I like the new menu offerings. We ordered carryout for a Friday night dinner date over the phone. When arriving at the restaurant 30 minutes later they were very busy. Their restaurant was practically full and they had a short line for carryout. This kept me waiting an extra 10-15 mins but I understand it's the weekend dinner rush and I just was hoping the food was still good. We ordered the crab rangoon, chicken basil fried rice, blue crab fried rice, shrimp tempura roll, and some boba teas. All tasted good. The recipe sure isn't like the original Lovely Thai but it was good in its own way. For the blue crab that I originally ordered they didn't have any blue crab available after I placed the order so they subbed with other crab meat and discounted from the dish price in the end. We were excited to know that they offer sushi now and tried the shrimp tempura roll because who can mess up something as simple as that roll? Guess what? We loved it. We will definitely be trying some more rolls in the future. As for the overall state of things here I think the new Xang Thai & Sushi will be great. Lovely Thai will be missed but I'm glad Grayslake still has good Thai food options plus the added Japanese menu items. We can't wait to try more dishes and actually dine in their restaurant.
