Fresh, clean, delicious Laos and Thai food. Great spicy food with their homemade chili oil.
I don’t like to dish out bad reviews, but this place was especially bad.
(1) bad service, gave me the wrong order
(2) food was badly prepared
(3) overly expensive
Would not return or recommend to anyone. The place was also completely empty.
Yummy! So cute inside & the food is delicious. Highly recommend! The chicken pad see eew is my favorite.
Been here before love LOVE the food but this visit was a little disappointing. We made reservations was seated a large party comes in after us the waitress give the other party water not us then goes to take their order so I said excuse me we didn’t get no water like are you going to take our orders? We were the only Asian couple at the time all the other customers were white……. Maybe cause we were a smaller table? But unacceptable either way
Great food and even better service! Can’t wait to come back!
Paneng Curry with sticky rice, spicy, Chicken and Extra Vegatables.
Ordered at 4:12 and order arrived at 4:35 :). Very fresh chicken without grizzle and nice thin slice. Vegetables were carrots cucumbers and beans maybe steamed lightly. Very esthetics and tasty. Sticky rice is popular there so I tried it. Fun to eat and went well with the peanut sauce. Uber eats delivered with no drama.
This place is a treasure.
Please do yourself a favor and stop in for some tasty and fresh Laotian food. You won’t regret it
My workplace is nearby and we've eaten from here a few times. We especially love the great lunch special deal! Today we ordered food for 10-12 people and Vientiane was patience and accommodating with the order process, and the food as always was delicious!
I have eaten almost everywhere & almost everything...and Lao cuisine is EASILY one of the BEST in the world. Hence...one would think that with a decent size Lao community in Philly, we would have a decent number of some of the best Lao restaurants in the country (like Thip Khao in DC, Charming Elephant in Baltimore, or Sticky Rice Cafe in Knoxville). Not so much. When Vientiane Bistro is hitting, the food is very good. But every other visit, it seems like the kitchen loses its way (e.g. Sai oua comes out burned or falling apart; Duck Laab comes out without cilantro or chilies). Every Lao restaurant in the Philly area (and there are only 4) has some version of the same issue: 50% of the menu is good 50% of the time. Worth the gamble. But prepare yourself if it doesn't pay off.
Food is just ok. Seems expensive for what you get and where you get it.
