I ordered the Yum Nuar, and it was an instant standout. The presentation came out looking beautiful, clean, and intentional, and it definitely had my attention. Then I took the first bite. Fresh, bright, and layered in a way that shows someone in the kitchen truly cares about craft. I had to pause mid-conversation and say, “Hold up, this is reaaally good!” The Thai iced tea was also sensational.

The staff was friendly, and the hospitality felt natural and genuine. Nothing forced, just genuinely good people who seem to enjoy what they do.

This is my new go-to for Thai food. Great food, great people, and great vibes. I walked out already thinking about what I want to try next. If you are anywhere near the area, treat yourself and stop by. 😋

Went yesterday with my family. Kids LOVED the Pho! My wife got Pad Thai Shrimp Medium spicy. Daughter got Pad Thai Chicken no spice. I got Drunken Noodles with beef medium spicy. In my opinion, spicy levels are lower than expected as in Medium is Mild. Food was absolutely delicious! I know we could have asked for more chili hut food was amazing. Service was even better! We WILL be going back!!

Spring rolls were good but I was not impressed with the coconut soup. Mostly broth, few mushrooms and only three small 🍤, would have liked a few more veggies🤔

We ordered a dish with chicken and noodles, but the chicken had an overwhelming gamey unpleasant taste because it was overcooked and dry. This ruined the dish. Everything else was okay.

Just had lunch there and even though I was just going to get the entree, I got plus sold for an appetizer for just me! Nice quiet location. Had the place to myself as it was early but got a good amount of attentive service. Their spicy Pad Thai was spicier than most places I've been, but still tolerable. Food was great.

The service was wonderful. She was very friendly, attentive, and overall awesome! The food had great flavors, presented beautifully too. Highly recommend this restaurant!
Please note, it is not in the correct location on the GPS, it is inbetween the Dollar Tree and Sports Clips in the Westwood strip mall. Just thought id share that so you wont miss it!

Completely forgot to take pictures.. but I absolutely recommend Thai Lao. We passed by this place for years, finally decided to try it. We got the appetizer sampler with spring rolls, crispy egg rolls, and gyoza. This was served with a soy sauce, a mixed hoisin/peanut type sauce, and fish sauce. We also got the Karb Lao chicken, and a pineapple fried rice. Coming with my Viet wife, we loved all the flavors and cooking of each. The service was also great, and have had no issues.
