I love that Lao Laan Xang is the first Lao restaurant in Wisconsin and women owned!
It’s such a special place that has built a loyal following. You’ll see so many repeat customers here. It’s a great spot for families, but also perfect if you’re dining solo. I’ve enjoyed just sitting at the bar with a good drink and meal.
Speaking of drinks, my go-to has always been the Lychee Martini, but now I’m adding the Thai Tea White Russian to my list. I can’t even tell you how tasty that was!
As for food, my favorites are the Papaya Salad, Larb with Sticky Rice, and the Pumpkin Curry. Don’t forget to try the mango sticky rice for dessert! All absolutely delicious, fresh, and full of flavor. If you haven’t been, you’re missing out on one of Madison’s true culinary gems!

So the only knock I have is that I walked in to order take out and it took an hour for an order of just apps to be ready. If you go in knowing that, everything else is amazing.
I got the egg rolls, chicken satay, and rangoon. Honestly the best rangoon I’ve ever had. Egg rolls were great, and the satay was perfectly cooked.
I will absolutely be ordering from here again, just with the understanding that I need to be prepared ahead of time.

We came back to Madison after 5 years and we’re happy to see they’re still open. Love their food. Probably the same great recipe since they perfected it years ago. You can see we both had curry, mango and pineapple. Chicken satay for our kiddo.

I’m a huge fan of this place and I have been for years. My fav is the squash curry with sticky rice and sticky rice with mango for dessert. They are a great option for folks with dietary restrictions too. My most recent dinner with them was gluten and dairy free and absolutely delicious. I’ve been coming here for years and I’ve never once been disappointed.

Went there for the first time last night celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. Food was amazing. They offer 4 levels of spiciness. I went with 3 and it was perfect. The iced Thai Coffee and Tea is amazing. The service was top notch. Nice atmosphere inside. Seating is spaced out where you don’t feel cramped or feel like you’re sharing a meal with strangers sitting next to you. Can’t say enough good things about this place. I’ll let the pictures do the talking.

Unfortunately pretty disappointing. We ordered three dishes, and had kids with us, and it took an hour to get our food. When it arrived it was cold and they didn’t bring plates. It took another ten minutes to get plates and napkins. The food was ok, but by the time we were served we had to box it up and leave. They also charged for a side of rice I asked for just to tide the kids over while we waited. 100$ for two people and two kids to have half of a cold meal. Wondering if there will be a next time and if the service would be better …..

I’ve never had Laotian food before but I expected it to be similar to Thai, and it was. The food is very good and there’s a pretty wide variety of options. The stuffed chicken wings are my favorite thing that I had, so I definitely recommend that. The curries are all good too. My only complaint is how dark it was in there. Close to when we were leaving they turned on the lights for the dinner service, but it would have been nice to have that for our early dinner too

Lao Laan Xaang was amazing Laotian experience. The inside is beautifully decorated. The wait staff was fun and friendly. We had the special of the day, the OrLam beef stew. It was perfect for the negatives day we had today!! They served the dish to share — so nice!! — and with extra spice mix on the side for me (my wife doesn’t need the burn!) The iced Thai tea was some of the best we’ve ever had. They’re also very well known for their takeout, but we ate in. The waiter also mentioned when we were chatting that the cooks are Laotian natives, and so you have even more assurance of authenticity, and even more incentive to support this small restaurant. We DEFINITELY recommend this place for the food and atmosphere!

Got takeout here. Food was quite good though didn’t blow us away. I was most impressed by the crab Rangoon flavor. One star off because I wasted a lot of time trying to order. Website doesn’t work so there’s no clear menu offered and had to call in. Very unsure what they even offered. So when I picked up the food I took pics of the menu there and will post them here.

Food is average, not authentic. Simply put, if you don’t know what the dishes are supposed to taste like, then it’s not a big deal. It’s definitely catered to the American palate. Although their spice scale was on point, spicy was spicy. Was very disappointed, one of those moments of “I could make this better at home” and not pay $20 for this. It’s also pricey, all things considered.
Regarding the service, poor dude was super friendly and thoughtful, but was a one man show:busting tables, taking orders, bartender, server, you name it. While the other dude just leisurely walked around looking busy. Don’t go when you’re hungry, because it takes forever to get your food.
