One of the few Lao restaurants in San Diego. Nice to try this cuisine and eat different foods. We ordered the Laap which is ground meat mixed with ground roasted rice, chili, lime juice, onions, scallions, cilantro and mint leaves. Then we also ordered a meat soup dish as well as a side of sticky rice. Really nice food and everything tasted really good as well,

This is a great alternative to Plumeria if you are vegetarian and want to get a decent meal. There is not quite as much variety in terms of veggie options (because it's not entirely veggie) but they are their if you are with meat eating friends.

Food tasted okay but man when did Thai food get so expensive? $19 for a plate of chicken pad see ew is crazy.

We had a pretty large group dinner here a couple weeks ago and the food was excellent! We got a variety of more common Thai dishes like drunken noodles as well as some of their Laotian dishes like Sai Oua and Nam Khao Tod. Highly recommend the Nam Khao Tod!Parking: The parking lot is very packed during the evenings due to there being a lot of popular restaurants in the same smaller parking lot. There are some other lots within a couple blocks and limited street parking available.

We ordered the khao soi, pork collar, and nam khao tod. The nam khao tod is personally not my cup of tea, but the khao soi is spot on and the pork collar is so flavorful. Staff is friendly and attentive, would love to come here again!

Drove down from North County to try the thai here! Inside is cute, semi casual lots of beautiful happy plants, and clean ambiance. I had never been here and was pleasantly surprised by the amounts and variety of delicious veggies in the Tom Yum soup. Also tried the Panang curry with wild caught Salmon, just wonderful paired with the Laos Golden Beer! Perfect for a cold rainy night like tonight. I will definitely be back.Vegetarian options: All the veggies you can imagine are available here

Pretty solid food in the area! It seemed every restaurant in SD was crazy busy on a Sunday night. Luckily we stumbled upon this place and it didn't disappoint!My friends and I shared a couple dishes and we were lucky to grab a big table for the 8 of us. Here is what I tried and my ratings on them:+ Nam Khao Tod (4/5): This is really good! Very authentic. Crunchy rice and very flavorful. Fresh lettuce!! I think if I'm picky, a little more fish sauce and like would have been perfect. The green onions were also chopped too big for me.+ Beef Jerky (5/5): Some of THE BEST Lao beef jerky I have ever had! Each piece was succulent and moist. Seasoned perfectly and great texture. The jeow was really tasty too. $4 extra for sticky rice is kind of crazy though.+ Pad See Ew (4/5): Classic! You can't go wrong ordering this. The noodles were cooked well. Good amount of soy sauce and egg. Overall, a really solid menu option.

Such delicious food....of Laos, Thailand, and Cambodia. We ate the Laos sausages, the papaya salad, and some noodles (Pad Thai). The service was great. The whole restaurant was full and everyone seemed very happy with their orders. They also had a clean bathroom.Highly suggest their delicious menu.Parking: There was parking but due to so many restaurants, it was a bit hard to find a spot. I ended up parking behind the bank.

I like everything here. Drunken noodles with duck, all their curries, Tom yum soup, and I tried the Yen Ta Fo noodle soup last time I was there as well and that was delicious! I recommend it with glass noodles though over the flat ones.

The nam khao tod was good. It was the best I've had. I would have given a four star. The shrimp fried rice was find, but you should order something else. However, my friend got food poisoning in the middle of the night and threw up.
