Loved the lao sausage, crying tiger, and fried pork belly, however portioning felt small. The pepper sauces were good with them and the sticky rice. The kapoon was a little bland for me, I wanted more spice. The lao papaya salad was good and you're given options to how you want it done.

Great Lao and Thai food at reasonable prices — a hard combination to find these days! The curries are especially flavorful.

The best lao food ever and the flavors are glorious. Sometimes I crave traditional south east Asian cuisine and this place always hits the spot. The servings are huge and the price is unbeatable for fresh quality lao food.

Literally wanted to order everything!! Bought some peppers and fresh Jerky for the ride home as well!!!Would highly recommend!

One of the best Thai and Lao food I’ve ever tasted in San Diego. This is my second time coming here and they never disappointed me. All I can say is yummy ?

Authentic Lao food in San Diego. Their Nam Kaho (crispy rice salad) is a great mix of crunchy, spicy, savory, and fresh. The crying tiger beef is uniquely different and to die for.

Fast stop in San Diego. Chose this place because others were closed on Monday. We ordered a ton of food. Fast service. Portions and prices decent but I wasn’t wowed. Intestine soup was still very hard. Wings did not come as described. Lao Kitchen in Las Vegas is still my highest standard for Lao food.

I always love the food here. It taste perfect every time.

Deeeeelicious! Didn't know it was Laotian, assumed it was Thai. Similar, though. Just go...I had Red Curry with tofu and Penang Curry with tofu. I got leftovers in the fridge and midnight munchies. So, Chao!

The food is pretty good. This is the first time I try Laos cuisine.
