Hot Cafe is a go-to spot near the airport for authentic southeast Asian cuisine. Known for their delicious pho with green pepper and shrimp paste, as well as flavorful dishes like Laos spring rolls, pad thai, and spicy basil mixed protein, the restaurant also offers wonderful Thai-Laos cuisine. The portions are generous, often leaving customers with leftovers for another meal. The staff are friendly and engaging, adding to the enjoyment of the experience. Customers love the fresh and flavorful meals, noting the right amount of spice and the exceptional food quality. Popular items include the papaya salad with fermented shrimp, Lao rolls, and the highly praised pho. The atmosphere is laidback, making it a great spot whether stopping by after a flight or for a weekend treat. With its fantastic flavors and comfortable setting, Hot Cafe is worth the drive, even for those traveling from afar. The food is nothing short of amazing, with great smells filling the atmosphere. The pad thai and drunken noodles were amazing, and the service was friendly. The food is authentic as it gets for Laotian style food, with the sample plate of papaya salad, Laos sausage, chicken wings, and sticky rice being delicious and tasting like back home. The large portions mean customers should bring their appetite. This family-owned spot offers fair prices and excellent service, bringing that up north Southeast Asian vibe that's so hard to find in Georgia.
