Five stars all around. Everything we've ordered on two occasions now has been delicious and unique. We love the quiet, friendly, and attentive woman that's served us, and the homey atmosphere. We'll be back again and again.(Would love for them to take their wonderful chicken wings to a spicier level. I'm a wing-nut and if they did, they'd get my top prize for eastern MA.)

A small restaurant, we took soup and fried rice. The food was great, flavourful, and reasonably large portions. It was also served in beautiful ceramic tableware. Highly recommend.

I love this place. The food is great. Tasty and feel like eating at home. It's just a little different about yum Nam sod, it was too sweet. However, I will go back here to eat again.

I had this restaurant recommended by a Lao friend who is in the restaurant business and it did not disappoint. If you want truly authentic Lao food that caters to the local Lao population this is a great option. You will get food cooked like they do at home & not modified to an American palette that is more accustomed to Thai food. Small restaurant with limited seating, and lots of Lao decor. The staff was very friendly. There are 6 parking spots right in front or else street parking.The cooked larb beef was fantastic. Often if you can find this dish at a Thai restaurant it will be ground beef which isn’t as good, but not here. Thinly sliced beef with lots of aromatics. Make sure to order a side of sticky rice which it is typically eaten with. There was enough food for 2 people if you ordered 2 sides or rice. Heat was on a scale of 1-10 and they gave me a “medium”. I like spicy food and boy was I sweating.I was also recommended the Kao Piek soup and absolutely loved it. It balanced out the heat from the larb since it is not spicy. It is similar to an American chicken noodle soup, but 10X better. Very thick broth with tons of garlic and very comforting. They hand make the noodles everyday. If you want it spicy, typically you add chili oil (not sriracha) which is a condiment at the table. Their chili oil is much spicier than other Asian restaurants I’ve been to so taste it first.Parking: There are 6 parking spots right in front or else street parking.

Agree with the other review about the fried pork belly being too dry and hard, because they were pre-made and then re-oven or re-fried. All the noodle soups have a lot of msg and with cheap low quality ingredients. Small portions for the prices.Small restaurant with only 3 dining tables and 1 top table. There’s no hand wash but just a very gross little soap. Be careful with using credit card, they don’t have any sign and charge 3.5% which is illegal.

Honestly this has become my favorite restaurant in Lowell. The food always tastes amazing and super fresh. You can tell there's a lot of care put into the food. A++p.s. - I don't know why people complain about the wait, good food isn't something you rush.
Nice selection of authentic dishes, meal was very good, pleasant server, however I found the large tv was distracting during an otherwise enjoyable meal.

Very delicious food but jasmine rice should not cost nearly 10 dollars. That papaya salad and beef larp is our go to. Also the owner...he has an inferiority complex. He's definitely overcompensating for something.

Never going back. I was extremely extremely disappointed. I wanted to give this such a chance FYI. I waited 25 minutes for almost no food. I'm very sad about this.$26.72 for such a crazy small serving. Green beans were ok. Crispy pork was way overcooked, so hard I couldn't eat it and cold - my teeth hurt now.Would recommend literally anywhere else. So much competition nearby with more food.
