This place is home. Food is impeccable. Highly recommend the papaya salad, it's so fresh and thick... That crab paste does it every time for me. Can't wait to try more from this place!

Really tasty. Everything was in a to-go box and you could stay or take it away. We had fresh rolls, crispy rice and kua mee lao with tofu. Really delicious. We'll be back.

This place rules. Lao is secretly the best Southeast Asian cuisine and this is way better than any Thai or Vietnamese restaurant in Seattle. Moreover, the owner is hilarious. I want more now

While craving for Lao food, we found this place on internet and went to order for takeaway: grilled chicken, beef jerky, Lao sausage, tam som… Everything was so good with real authentic flavours. The chicken was especially amazing. And it’s so good that they provide traditional dips with the dishes ?.

First time visit to this establishment. I saw the chicken wings on the menu and was overly excited. They were out of stock. This fish was really sad, but the lemongrass sausage and the Kua Mee Lao with Beef made up for it. The sausage was crispy outside and each bite was very savory with a nice kick of spices + lemongrass. The noodle portion is extremely large. This is more for two to share. Overall good service and food.

Great Lao food, we loved the Nam Kao and Soop Naw Mai, but currently only takeout. Fortunately, there's seating inside but not a full-service dining situation currently. Regarding parking, there's a few parking spaces right in front.

Wow…hands down the best Lao food I have ever had! The flavors were absolutely incredible and you can taste the freshness, fish sauce, lemongrass, chili….I’m drooling just writing this review. We had the Lao sausage, fried beef, glass noodle salad, and the dish with the fried chicken skin. Can’t wait to come back!

I ordered nam kao, which is like pork fried rice you add to lettuce along with green onion and mint to make a sort of taco. It was delicious, and service was great as well!Due to being short staffed, they are only offering takeout right now, but I was still able to eat in the restaurant with the takeout container.I’d definitely go back!

Hidden gem! They have a standard thai papaya salad and then an extra "fragrant" (stinky ?) Laos one and it's amazing! Just make sure to eat it with sticky rice. Their sausage dish was also bomb.Last time I went, sep 2022, they were takeout only.

Love the Vieng Thong beef, it is tasty, especially the sour spicy sauce. You don't want to miss this in a beautiful sunny weekend.

Incredible food! We got the fried tilapia, papaya salad platter and kua mee loo! Soooo yummy. Can't wait to come back again.

Absolutely disgusting. I got papaya, pho and the Yum Seen for delivery through Grubhub and the lettuce in the pho container was CRAWLING with bugs!!! This is probably due to not washing their produce. I would not trust anything else they prepare at the restaurant. I am highly disappointed as a first time customer. I would post photos but I’m scared of bugs and threw it away immediately. Eat at your own risk.

This place is so so good - super fresh and delicious! We’ve tried a bunch of different items, and while everything is great our favorites are Nam Kao and the BBQ chicken. Definitely worth making the trip to visit.

I've been coming here close to 20 years now and the food is 100% identical and has never changed, I love the consistency and quality of the food!! I showed up about 14 minutes before they closed and they were super friendly and still let me order to go even though they were busy and I still had my 5 items in hand and out the door in about 12 minutes!! This place is awesome!
