I usually order it extra spicy, but sometimes it turns out to be even spicier than that! Other must-try dishes include the Red Curry Beef (without coconut milk), chili paste beef or chicken, and the Bume Noodle Soup, whether you prefer it wet or dry.

I typically like to squeeze a bit of extra lime juice on mine, and then it's absolutely perfect!

Myopic? Sure, but it's consistently terrific. I moved to Florida for 5 years, and every visit back to Springfield, I would bring back $50 worth of frozen egg rolls. They are simply the best, along with the peanut sauce, of which is amazing. I have tried Thai at several locations in Florida, and it wasn't even close. Springfieldians have it made! I live in Alton now but I still get Magic Kitchen when working in Spfld:

This is the best Thai food I've had in Springfield so far, and the prices are great. I was completely satisfied and can’t wait to explore more of their menu!

My husband ordered the fried rice, which was excellent as well. This was our first time visiting, and we will definitely be back. While the building itself is pretty average, the food truly surpassed our expectations!

My only concerns came as we were leaving. I happen to look up and see the air vents above our tables were completely packed with black filth. They desperately need cleaned. I wish I had taken a picture. However, we had already risen from our table and leaving. They are over the first set of tables as one walks in. Had I seen them upon arrival, we would not have stayed. I 'm a firm believer in the saying If that is what you CAN see as a customer... imagined what you CAN 'T see in the back .

While they don’t serve alcohol, you’re welcome to bring in your own cooler. The staff was very friendly, though they seemed a bit rushed at times.
