Vientiane Cuisine: Reviews & Ratings
I know many more places where you can get phõ for a couple dollars cheaper than here but on a good note their phõ is even more delicious than my usual go to phõ restaurant in Visalia i really love their phõ i would recommend for the food it does have that good taste!
Lots of great choices , service is quick and good . The food is great as well with well served portions. Place is home feeling & dosent feel like a high end restaurant but more of a place that feels comfortable. Owner/manager can be rude so be wary whose authority when you go.
Phenomenal food here! The service was a little slow. I waited about 45-50 minutes for my order, but it was worth it. They have some of the best Tom Kha Gai I've ever had! And the beef salad was very good too. Go check 'em out! JUST realize you're gonna have to be patient and take time to relax and slow down!
Not as good as homemade Laos food but still good! We have Laos family and nothing compares to homemade :)
The food is authentic and very flavorful. Customer service is top tier as well. Prices don't even matter when the food is totally worth the cost.
love their beef pho! Always my go to meal here. The workers are super friendly and welcoming.
On a cold autumn evening, I was out riding up in the mountains and needed something to warm my core. Looking at Yelp and Google, the options were limited, so I figured some South-eastern Asian food would fit the bill. I had the kao soi and it was different from anything I've had in the past. Adding some of the spice at the table, it was just spicy enough and warm enough to make me forget the cold that I had been riding through all day. Service was attentive and the food came out quick enough. There were a lot of call-in orders while I was sitting there, so I could see how it might take a minute to get a large order fulfilled if you just walked in, but the people I saw leaving all had a smile on their face.
