    The Lad Nar noodles were not in the bag and they came by and dropped them off right away!

    I had the order from Penny’s delivered from Oak Park to Riverside. It came super fast—only 40 minutes after ordering online. They communicate very well on delivery updates and timing. And the food was excellent.

    We are relatively new customers to Penny’s. First few experiences were mixture of dine in, take out, and delivery. Food is great (the whole reason we returned). Service is normally great and management (owner?) is responsive when something goes wrong. Delivery has not been a good experience. We wanted to watch football and drink tonight so we opted for delivery. Order took more than an hour so I called the restaurant to see if our food was just sitting there as we waited a long time. Manager/owner(?) was very responsive. He apologized and said they had been slammed tonight and he would drive it to us himself. We like the food there and the manager/owner seemed to give a rip about making customers happy. The Door Dasher must have arrived at Penny’s before manager had a chance to deliver to us. So, we waited another 10-15 mins. By that time, the food was no longer even a little warm. Had we known any of this would happen, we would have done pick up. About our order: they were sold out of their tasty edamame which made us sad. We tried the fried tofu instead. Will not make that mistake again. Not sure if it was that our order sat for a long time until the Door Dasher picked it up or if fried tofu just doesn’t translate to delivery well, but it was cold and an odd combo of overcooked (hard) and rubbery. ☹️ We also ordered the chicken satay and the sesame beef noodle bowl. Both were barely warm, but the taste was fine. Delivery experience and no edamame ☹️ made this time with Penny’s less than awesome. Penny’s will not be our first choice for delivery next time because of the Door Dash issues. We will probably make our way back again for pick up…at some point…

    Service was okay, but when it comes to the food taste it’s actually bad. Even the appetizers, like how do you mess up a gyoza?

    Penny’s Oak Park is a true community staple! The food is always delicious, fresh, and comforting, but what really makes Penny’s special is their generosity. They give back to local schools and organizations—a wonderful example of how they continue to be a pillar in our community. We’re so grateful for their support and for all the joy (and noodles!) they bring to Oak Park!
