Laotian Restaurants near Honolulu, HI

“My favorite panang curry on island! Attentive staff and fun atmosphere.“

“Small, hole in the wall restaurant.
Owner is nice and she fixes good food.
Not really much of an ambiance.
Small dining area, with limited tables. However, there was room on the day that I went.
Good choice for Thai food.
Close to both Waikiki and Ala Moana area.“

“Located within the Maunakea food court. The food court, itself, is rather sad and decrepit looking.

I ordered a Lao papaya salad and Lao sausage with the very nice owner. She asked me for my spice level and I replied “the authentic way you eat it.” The salad itself was definitely spicy and I enjoyed every bite. Only criticism would be I wished the papaya was crunchier. I also like peanuts in my papaya salad but there were none in this version, I don’t know if the Lao version contains peanuts. The sausage was meaty and tasty.

I’d return to try their other authentic Lao dishes.“

“Mix Seafood Panang Curry, Fried Calamari, and Sticky Rice are awesome.“

“Muy divertido y muy amables las personas que lo atienden“

“Last night's Waikiki Block Party was packed and I ordered from this restaurant: lemongrass fried chicken and pad Thai (combo B) and the food was amazing! The lemongrass fried chicken was cooked to perfection; crispy, light batter, and juicy. The pad Thai was not dry an clumpy like other food stalls, but it was a little cold from being out. Otherwise, a very good takeout meal. I can only imagine what the restaurant experience is like.“
