Best Thai Food Deal in Orange County. Good portion of rice and a selection of 3 entrees for $11 you can’t get a better meal at McDonalds. Highly recommend

Run by a Thai family with 7 sisters. This restaurant tastes exactly the same as point-and-scoop shops in Thailand. $9/$10 for a 2-item/3-item combo, respectively. Highly recommend this place for quality Thai food at a very reasonable price.

Brought my sister, who traveled from the East coast, here as I been coming here for years. Great Thai-Laos dishes and we enjoyed lunch specials. During a super busy packed time, superb lady behind the counter allowed her to taste test many lunch special items and gave us large portions of food. Really took care of her and I 200%. We gave them a large tip - so well deserved. My sister was delighted by the Thai-Laos food, their serving hospitality and kindness, and for generous portions. My favorite restaurant in OC took care of my traveling sister. Great owners and great grocery store attached too. A++++

This place is family owned. They have a tiny grocery store that is connected to the restaurant. The food is good, the service is nice, the restaurant is bare bones but it doesn't take away from the food. The only thing that bothers me is why they close so early. They are literally close by 6pm. I work down the street and literally almost never make it for dinner. Lunch yes, dinner no. That's the one down side to the restaurant. Other than that the food is authentic and it's awesome. My fave would be the boat noodles, papaya salad, seafood salad, larb, their handmade noodles for the chicken noodle soup. It's one of my absolute fave. It's simple but oh so good.

Super authentic and soooo delicious. Very affordable, too! The only downside is that it’s cash only but tbh it’s worth it. For sure stop by!

Little hole in the wall with great Laos food. I loved the khao piak noodles. Everything was delish and home made. The ladies gave excellent service.

Loved the food here. Amazing flavors. Amazing prices. Everybody was so friendly. The desserts are amazing. Note that they don’t really have a sign up, so look at the photos. They only take cash. The market is also nice (and may have a larger variety of desserts). The market also only takes cash. We really liked the boat noodles.
