Great little "hole in the wall" place with delicious food, generous portions, excellent air conditioning, wonderful service, and a wide menu. The decor is simple and the restaurant is very clean. The owners are kind and gracious, and glady made menu accommodations for me. This place is a hidden treasure!

It wasn’t bad. The spring roll are acceptable, they use the package veggie you can buy from store rather than fresh veggies, it’s kinda sad tho but it taste okay.The drinks are average, as usual I don’t like Thai coffee, but yes I like Thai ice tea but they are nothing special.

Love their chicken satay! They are moist and flavorful. The peanut sauce is aromatic and creamy. Perfect combination!I also love their papaya salad-Som Tum, it’s absolutely refreshing and delicious. Just like how I had this dish in Thailand!Tofu larb is also good. My vegetarian friend loves that the tofu was crispy. The flavor is well balanced. Those fresh mint leaves, onion, cabbage and chilli lime sauce is accompanying well with hot stick rice.

In my past two visits (April and July 2022), I noticed things have changed. New employees, new menu and menu changes, higher prices, less rice given with entrees, food is different and not as good as before. Because of these two, negative experiences, I see no reason in returning. This is disappointing as I liked the food with the previous restaurant owners.

Amazing food; a restaurant that had us talking about how fantastic it was for the entire drive home. We had the standard green curry (fresh and perfectly simmered veggies) and the Khao Soi (curry noodles). Both had such an incredible flavor; the curry noodles had crispy noodles as well, so there was a lot of great textural variety. Unique and awesome!Service was VERY friendly, and I loved the chef's enthusiasm. If you want to go somewhere people are lovingly SHARING THEIR CULTURE through food, go here. We will be back!

Seriously, one of the best Thai places I've ever been to, and I've been to many!The owners and staff are super friendly, and the portion sizes are great! Highly recommend the pad kee mao! You won't be disappointed! Pad Thai was also great. Can't wait to try more things on the menu!

A Thai restaurant worth going to! This place has REAL flavor, nothing tasted short on ingredients or spice.

Excellent food, friendly service, broad menu, and ample portions makes this a go-to restaurant for us. My wife and I think the salad rolls(appetizer) are the best we have ever had. We split( no charge) the pineapple curry with chicken, the spice was a tad hot so we suggest you ask for mild, then add Thai pepper to your taste. The bill was $21 and they do offer lunch specials for $9.50. Parking is easy, closed Mondays and 3 to 4 daily.

Food was delicious and Scrumptious! Now that it’s under new management , Food was made fresh and all the flavors were on point, one of the best Thai/ Lao Cuisine I been to here in Salem.Coming here was not a disappointment. I highly recommend Lanxang Lao/Thai Cuisine.

Good size portions, decent price. Service was acceptable, bathroom and restaurant were clean. The pineapple in my food tasted really funky which was a major disappointment, it's usually my favorite part of pineapple fried rice. Be careful with how much spice you get in your food, it has a bit more kick than most Thai restaurants I've been to. You can add more but not remove it once it's in your food.
