No joke one of the best restaurants in Philadelphia. Love this place. Cozy, comforting, and pretention-free. I usually get Tom yum and a curry but this time I went with Banh-Xeo (fried crepe with veggies) and the king soup (Lao style coconut curry broth over vermicelli). Those dishes and a pot of jasmine tea had me feeling like I’d taken a day at a spa. I’ll leave room for dessert next time

Hidden Gem we stumbled upon on Valentines Day. We just saw a show and decided to walk around the neighborhood and we saw it and went in. We were seated quickly but once we left it started to get super busy. So it may be a place you’ll need to make a reservation but again we went on Valentines Day around 5pm while the sun was still out and we were seated immediately.
We would go back to this place over and over. It looks small but they have much more seating in the back where you can’t see.
We had pork steamed dumplings which were smaller than we thought, we could’ve had 2 orders of them and been fine honestly. Then I had grilled salmon in the sweet basil sauce. I want to be eating that all the time. We also both had Thai Iced Tea with Half and Half. I had 2 glasses it was so delicious, I mean that will get you hooked.
Overall we truly enjoyed our experience and will be back.

THE. BEST.
Vientiane has the best food, and are heavy on take-out, but they also have a little cute dine-in area with games and coloring paper for little ones; a shareable and kid-friendly menu, as well as vegetarian and vegan options.
Cute ambiance too, and BYOB. Perfect cold weather date night spot under the el. Kenzo is not a bad area like suburbanites say, and the food is SUPERB.

Everything I’ve had here is delicious! Highly recommend the homemade sausage and the tilapia dish

We’ve been going here or doing takeout from Vientiane for years now. Love their noodle dishes and have tried most things on their menu. They continue to impress with their consistency of flavors and service. The only drawbacks are they remain cash only and wait times for takeout can be long at peak times.

Still slaying after all these years. A perfect neighborhood BYOB with the most delicious food. Friendly service, fast, and just the most tasty. Love the pad Thai, love the Penang curry!

Small place but very intimate and inviting. This was my 2nd visit. I got the fresh spring rolls and pad thai with tofu and my husband got chicken skewers and some type of tilapia with ginger sauce over rice. Everything was great. We will be back again.

The food was a flavor bomb in the mouth! So yummy! The PAD KEE MAO noodles was amazing with tofu. We had the AW LAO stew with shrimp and it worked so well with the sticky rice. The dill was such a surprisingly good combo with the lemon grass! Great service and atmosphere as well 🙂

I looooove their ban xeo. It’s cash only but their food is fresh and great! I also loved their wonton soup. It was very flavorful.
