This is a hidden gem! Excellent fried rice, egg rolls and crab rangoon. Service is great and there's plenty of seating.

So far I have tried the seen savahn, chicken pho, and sticky rice which all comes w nice portions. I want to try more but the pho is so dang good! I really love the hole in the wall feel of this place and the quality of the food. Every time it comes out fast made with fresh, quality ingredients. I recommend it to anyone looking to have authentic Lao food. Please support this small business!

Awful customer service. Food is overpriced for what you get. You’re better off going to a buffet for what they charge.

Food is good but not worth visiting the area. Let’s face it, Broadway around 7th isn’t the best spot. I am glad people support this business, and Lao’s Kitchen does have an eat in area with a lot of authentic items. However, the person taking orders is a feisty one—I want customer service with a smile not an attitude like it’s a privilege to be waited upon. Also, have an online menu. And throw in a menu when you pick up a food order. Ordering shouldn’t be such a complicated, stressful endeavor. Take down or have taken down old photos from six years ago showing items that are no longer available. And no, “go to Facebook” is lazy; not all of us have a Facebook. Until this place gets its act together, I have other choices.

so, I've been coming here since about 2018 I think. and let me tell you... it is my FAVORITE RESTAURANT EVER. the food is excellent, every dish I've had is amazing bit my repeat order (even the workers memorized my order because I get it so much) is larb kai with seen savnh (both pictured), sticky rice, and thai iced coffee. I cannot recommend this place enough, the prices are reasonable, the taste is otherworldly, and the selection is small but makes for only the freshest of food (I've burnt my mouth at times from the freshness, and my own eagerness!) the staff is very friendly, it makes the environment almost feel homey. I could eat from here everyday and not get tired. thank you, Laos kitchen! you have amazing food!

We are from Crystal Lake, IL, and we will definitely drive back to visit this place. The owner is super friendly and went out of her way to talk to us. The lady at the register who served us has an amazing personality and exceptional customer service. Would 100% recommend to anyone visiting the Rockford area or who lives in Rockford.

I thought the food was delicious and I quite liked the environment as well. My suspicion is that there is a whole subset of Rockford residents who wouldn’t consider a place like this simply because it is on Broadway which, let’s face it, isn’t in the *prime* of its life as a commercial corridor. But I’d urge anyway to get past any of that and give this place a shot. Well worth it.
Really nice and helpful staff. So grateful for the great service.

Food was a bit different then what I'm use to and it took long to get our food even though it wasn't that busy and the place does need some TLC.

They don’t hire enough staff members to accommodate their customers, waited an hour before getting served any food and my thai tea because they had one waitress. She was so busy that she kept forgetting things. Never again!
Great food, awesome people!
