The food was delicious. The service was slow - we weren't the only table that got forgotten about. But the food was delicious. I'd go back for sure.
The cocktails were inventive with a Laoation flavor, the smash burger was wonderful and the Nam Khao and Lao Beef Jerky were delicious.

Taurus Ox offers a lovely dining experience with beautifully presented dishes and friendly servers. I liked the restaurant's overall vibe. While everything looked impressive, the flavors didn't quite capture the authentic Laotian taste I know from home-cooked meals. I guess previous personal experiences came into play, especially when you're used to traditional flavors from family recipes.
Overall, it was a good experience and perfect for a date night. However, for that true homemade taste, I’ll probably stick to more hole-in-the-wall places. Still, I’d recommend Taurus Ox for anyone wanting a pleasant dining experience with a Laotian twist.

Been wanting to try this for a long time and it lived up to my hype, the Lao Burger was 10/10

A very fave spot in the hood. Food consistently creative and umami rich. Service top quality. One of the best overall Seattle restaurants for sure.

I love having this gem just a five-minute walk from home! The atmosphere is wonderful, and the food is truly standout—incredibly unique and packed with flavor.

On two visits I thought the food was pretty bland and dry.

Yes, you need to try the Lao burger!! It’s on multiple top lists for a reason! Everything was so flavorful!! Meat seasoned so well, crisp edges, cheese and sauce that just make everything melt in your mouth. Absolutely scrumptious!!
The Nam Khao was yummy too! It has such a unique mix of flavors; crunchy rice, tangy, savory pork skin, crunchy peanuts, and a fresh crisp of lettuce! Just so good!!! I just wish they gave us bigger pieces of lettuce. The pieces were small so it made it difficult to make a wrap.
The place is tastefully decorated with Laos culture, we enjoyed sitting in the back booths, although it was a bit darker than the front. Service was good and had a great experience. We will be coming back for sure, as I am still thinking of that burger!
Delicious!!! My friend is Laotian and I always come here when she visits Seattle 😋 willing to fight someone for the Nam Khao

Good vibe but the food is just ok. The pancake on rice was very burned, we found out because it tasted so bitter so we flipped the pancake over and saw this😅 Rice was super dry and was COLD.

Slow service and you with a minimum suggested tip of 18% you have to serve water and utensils yourself and the burger came out cold. The pork dish is too salty. Just a typical overpriced Seattle restaurant.

I don’t know if they are authentic but I liked the taste. The price was more reasonable than I expected.
