Laotian Restaurants near Deerfield Beach, FL

“Niran's Kitchen is a true gem that never disappoints. We've visited several times, and despite the distance from Sunrise, it’s always worth the trip. Tucked away in a small strip plaza off Hillsboro & US 1, this cozy spot exudes a warm, inviting atmosphere. This time, we introduced another couple to the restaurant for their first experience, and it did not disappoint. We started with the highly recommended Sai Gok, a sour sausage dish with sticky rice—deliciously flavorful—and paired it with their refreshing Thai Tea. To share, we ordered the house rice and added the Thom Khem Pork. Availability can vary between pork or beef for this dish, but we were lucky to try the pork, which was braised to perfection, with a caramelized sweetness that coated the tender meat and the hard-boiled eggs cooked in the same rich juices. The Tom Kha, a coconut broth soup with chicken, was another standout. Their homemade noodles were the perfect complement, and the bowl was large enough for all of us to savor together. Of course, we couldn’t resist the Pad Kee Mao (drunken noodles), which had a delightful kick of heat and rich flavors that left us utterly satisfied. By the end of the meal, we were wonderfully full. To top off the evening, Vatsana, the owner, came out to chat with us. She shared the story of her journey into the restaurant world and her passion for food and culture, which truly shines through in every dish. If you're ever in the area, Niran’s Kitchen is a must-visit. It’s a mom-and-pop shop run by Vatsana and her husband, and they deserve all the support they can get. While they rely on snowbirds, locals should definitely make this a go-to spot year-round.“

“I am in town for business and after one visit to this little shrine offering stunning Thai cuisine I have been back two more times, and will make it a point to stop in again before I leave. I have lived throughout California, Florida, Ohio, Denver, New Orleans and Minneapolis and can state with absolute certainty this is in the top three of any Thai cuisine I have experienced in over 35 years of being a Thai food fiend. Stellar menu, extraordinary flavors, great service and cute, casual ambience with a Thai flair. So, so, so, so good. ❤️“
