The food here was great. It’s not fancy, or in a fancy neighborhood, but if you like food, it’s 5 stars. I had the Laotian stew, which was my favorite. I tried some new dishes and it was exciting! Thank you for your excellent service.

Everything was delicious and authentic. No notes. Big fan of the thicker rice noodles in their style of fresh spring rolls.

We ended up here by coincidence – a very happy one! They have a broad selection with many amazing options. The food was ready fairly quickly, we had it to go but you can also dine in in their cozy dining area. Friendly staff. The sticky mango dessert was absolutely delicious.

Very good Thai / Lao food. Parking can be a little challenging at night. We always get the Nam Khao – rice ball salad.

Google this place on our way home. Service was fast and friendly. We enjoyed the Thai tea the most from our order, it was decent and herbal enough. The large papaya was sadly too salty and small for $11. The $3 sausage was good. The pad Thai was more wet than my liking and wasn’t as flavorful. This place is decent and ok for Thai food. Not the best but also not the worst. No dine in only takeout.

This is my favorite Laotian restaurant. It was open for takeout only until a short time ago, and now it’s dine in. How I missed eating there. The crispy rice salad, Laotian salad with a strong pungent shrimp paste flavor, Laotian sausage, dry beef are some of the excellent dishes. It sits in a sketchy residential neighborhood, fairly safe in the daytime.

Great place for Thai and Laotian food. Highly recommended Laotian style som tam (papaya salad) or tam taeng (cucumber salad). The crispy rice salad is amazing. The grilled pork and beef are thinly sliced, yet delicious without any grease or sugary taste. The food is very clean and refreshing to your palette. And yes it is affordable, especially in the Bay Area standard. The neighborhood might not be the best so feel free to order take out.

Lots of people eat here but no one really knows about this spot. The staff is super friendly and fast. (They’re mostly northern Thai peeps hence the Laos menu items) Some of the best Thai/Laos food in Oakland, I ordered the Sai Oooa which is traditional sausage usually served with Som Tom (papaya salad) and sticky rice yassss delicious pork, lemongrass, garlicky yumminess (giving me life) -Go Get you some. The RadNa (beef n broccoli stir fry with wide rice noodles in a black sweet soy gravy) was just like ordering from a street vendor minus the broccoli n carrots. If you haven’t had Thai beef jerky, you’re missing out. This hidden gem is 2-3 min drive from high street.
