LA Kitchen

I ordered the Fried Chicken and Sticky Rice plate and an order of Shrimp Spring Rolls. Our food came pretty quick. I got three drumsticks and two thighs with my order. The Chicken was very tender tasted good. The sticky Rice was standard but good. The spring rolls were fresh and good as well. I would order both again, but would like to see what other foods they have. My friend ordered Orange Chicken and Noodles. He said his order was good. Lao "Fried Chicken" is not a typical "fried". I would say it is more grilled. Either way, it's tasty and the sauce provided was very good as well. The eating area is a little small. So it's advisable to get a to go order if it's busy.

I love the food. The food has always been delicious and never disappoints. My only complaint is the menu online as well as inside the restaurant, have not been updated on the price increase. I went to pick up food for me and my coworker expecting to pay one price, but the price was increased which made me have to use debit instead of cash.

This is maybe my 3rd or 4th time here in the last month or so. LA Kitchen is legit. From the flavors to the textures in each dish, every menu item I’ve tried has been delicious, and the portion sizes are generous as well. One of my favorite items is their fried chicken with sticky rice (the jel sauce that comes with it is also to die for) - I feel like they could charge way more for this dish because it’s soooooo good, but for some reason they choose not to. Last but certainly not least I genuinely appreciate that their customer service is always friendly and efficient. There’s a reason why this place is so popular amongst the locals - great food and kind staff members, what more could you ask for?

Our first time here and the staff and food made a great impression! We arrived here after landing in San Fransisco. Food was great and seating was good. If you're looking for a beautiful view and luxurious tables, it's not here. Seating could be better as we were seated right next to the trash. Hopefully they can either re arrange the trash or seating because there were people throwing away trash next to where we were seated. Food quality was good! Especially the boat noodles and rice dishes. More than enough to satisfy your cravings and worth the price. The quality of the boat noodles was really delicious and flavorful! You can add as much spice as you'd like to since there are side sauces to add. Overall, great food quality but the table seating isn't the best but this is an excellent spot for lunch. Would recommend eating here if you're out of town. If you're a local, read what locals have to say in the reviews.

My Daughter told me about this place and they don’t disappoint! She got chicken with sticky rice. I had pork belly with sticky rice. The sauce’s are on point! To drink offer young coconut.

2 weeks ago, we had went to this place and as after we ordered our food, we sat down for a good 20-30 minutes. As the serve was coming out with the food, they were serving people who had actually came after us. I had to speak to one of the waitress that we didn't get our food, and that people who actually came after us were already getting served. She quickly had went back and grabbed our ordered. She didn't even apologized. All she said was that they were backed up in the kitchen. Worst Service I've experienced.

Saw this place through tiktok, so we gave it a shot! The food was delicious and came out pretty fast! I'd say if you're craving lao/thai/hmong food this will hit the spot! They also make sugar cane drinks! Order at the counter first and then find a seat!

Been wanting to try this spot for a while! I wish I would have done it long time ago! We ordered the Chow mein with chicken and shrimp! That dish has so much flavor and perfect balance! My new weekend spot before going home for lunch!

Love their chicken & rice! Kapoon is bomb too Oh & their veggie egg rolls are delicious

This is stop number two on my personal mission to find Thai food that takes me straight back to Thailand. I just got back from Thailand and now I get it when people say that trip will ruin you. Once you've had food over there it's really hard to find anything here that truly compares. Still, the craving is real, so the hunt continues. LA Kitchen kept popping up in reviews and the fact that they had mango sticky rice immediately caught my attention. That alone was enough to get me out the door. I ordered the pho with crispy pork belly. I know it's not Thai, but the Yelp photos sold me. The broth was the highlight. Super comforting, like something someone simmered all day just for you. The pork belly, though, didn't quite do it for me. Once it sat in the broth it got pretty tough to chew. The beef slices were also on the tougher side. The beef rib was the standout. Great flavor, just wish the texture matched. Still, overall a solid bowl. The mango sticky rice was really good. Flavor wise, it brought me back. It tasted very similar to what I had in Thailand, which made me happy. The only downside was the rice felt just a little undercooked. Not a deal breaker, but noticeable. I did takeout since it was getting late, but the restaurant itself looked clean and cozy from what I could see. I also ordered a rice dish with sausage, but I was already full from the soup so I can't fairly judge it yet. I'll update once I give that one a proper try. The hunt continues.

I love their chicken and sticky rice10/10! The owner is very super friendly and welcoming. The inside of the restaurant is on the smaller side but very clean. If you're ordering for take out, make sure you call ahead and order they get pretty busy. They also have really good pho with bone marrow soooo delicious! One of my favorite spots be sure to give them a try if you haven't already.

Man if you don't know LA kitchen, are you even from Fresno?! A staple in the area for the famous chicken and rice dish. I also get some fried pork belly, chow mein and spicy chicken. Has never disappointed me. They are really quick and take orders over the phone for easy pick up

I was disappointed bc I had higher expectations after seeing Mrinthariss on fb do a review on their food. I wanted to try their bitter soup but they ran out for the day and their nam kao was prepacked so it was soggy and looked like it had been sitting there for a while. I thought they would make a fresh one from the kitchen since I was dining in but was handed the prepackaged ones that were on the counter. I ended up ordering the boat noodle which was ok. I'm a big fan of Lao food but this place didn't cut it for me. Again, I probably had too high of expectations before walking in.

Love everything about this restaurant! Food is great! Customer service is fantastic and prices are reasonable.

While doing some house shopping my whole family and I popped in to LA Kitchen. I'm always looking for local places to go and this looked fun! There's ample parking and while at first it looks like a take out only kinda place, once you go in there is a whole dining room to the right side! You order at the counter and then your food is brought to you. The accoutrements are at the counter including water cups and napkins and there are sauces and plastic cutlery at the table. We ordered beef larb, chicken larb, spring rolls, red curry, spicy chicken and orange chicken. I ate the beef larb and sampled the curry. The curry was eye crossingly good. I'm ordering that next time. The larb was a new experience and as I've never tried it before I'm going to say I enjoyed it but personally I'm unlikely to order it again. It's made authenticity so it has tripe in it. The papaya salad was spicy but I noticed that ours was quite chunky and not shredded. Overall it was a fun new experience and I'll be back!

Updated Review: -Tum Kueng Nai Bitter Soup always hits the spot. -Eggrolls weren't the best. They were served really overcooked on the outside and barely cooked on the inside. I wished it came with a spicy sauce and not just the sweet sauce. I ended up mixing Sriracha in with the sauce. -Kaopoon Special w/ Pork Belly was okay. -Pork Steamed Rolls were not the best. Very little fillings. Wouldn't recommend or buy them again. -Shrimp and Pork Spring Rolls are okay but not worth the price (2 for $10). I wouldn't buy them again. The peanut sauce is rather delicious though. -Fried Chicken Sticky Rice is always the best dish to get. Definitely worth the money.

We came directly here for lunch today (TG Day) as we rolled into town. We got (my usual) Kaopoon, Fried Sausage w/Sticky Rice (hubby's), Fried Pork Belly w/Sticky Rice, and Papaya Salad (medium spicy). I also got two new items: Combo Fried Rice & Chicken Larb (medium spicy) to go. Everything was authentic & delicious as usual. The Combo Fried Rice and Chicken Larb were super delicious! The fried rice had a ton of meat and the Chicken Larb had the perfect balance of herbs and spices. The Chicken Larb and Papaya Salad were at the perfect medium spicy level. I think I found two new favorites: Chicken Larb & Combo Fried Rice. Hands down it is the best fried rice I've ever had! Both were scrumptious! The restaurant wasn't busy when we arrived around 12:30'ish. The tables were clean and the staff were friendly as always. It is an order at the counter and then they bring you the food kind of place. Water, sodas, and to-go containers are on a counter for self-serve. This is my fave Laotian restaurant in the area. I look forward to eating there whenever we're in town.

Found this in the area and decided to give it a try. Location has plenty of parking in a safe area. There are a lot of tables on the side for dine in. Water is self served. We ordered the sausage and pork belly. Sausage was ok... i would give it a 3/5. The pork belly was amazing, definitely a 5/5! We would get the pork belly again. We came during lunch so it was quite busy but other than that everything was good.

Can you say AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS?!?! We got the green curry chicken, fried pork belly w/ sticky rice and fried chicken with/ sticky rice. We ate the food and kid you not...we came back for 2 more orders before heading back to the Bay Area. The service was quick and friendly and paired with the affordable price...I honestly would drive 2.5 hours to Fresno to just dine at LA Kitchen! Highly recommend if you are passing through Fresno. I didn't try the more Chinese/American menu so can't say much about it, but their Thai/Laos dishes were on point. And...you MUST try their sugar cane juice menu!!

I always thought this place happened to open in an area with few Asian restaurants nearby and so they did a good job picking a location. But in terms of food I think it's just okay. A couple of years ago I ordered a kapoon from here and the next day when we warmed it up it was already bad, so I have stayed away from this place for a while. This past week I decided to give them another try and was a bit disappointed again. I ordered the steamed fish, chicken chow mein, and a side of veggie egg rolls. The egg rolls were lacking flavor a bit bland, and I didn't like the sweet and sour sauce that came with it (I was expecting fish sauce). Then as the steamed fish, I asked the woman what was in it and she said just fish. But when I got it, there were noodles, a load of lemon grass, and other things. So what I don't really like about this place is the lack of transparency in the menu about what is actually in the dishes. Would not be a good place for people with allergies. This place is fine and I'm glad they do well, but I don't think it's for me.

AMAZING!!! Best sticky rice, Chinese sausage , and Thai tea! Overall the staff and owner are so NICEEE!!!! Definitely will be returning again and again :)

This was my first time trying Lao food and let me just say I went twice in the same week! I've only tried their chicken and sticky rice plate with the chili sauce so far and it is so good! The chicken is juicy and cooked to perfection. The portions are very big, you get 4 pieces of chicken with rice which is like 2 meals for me. They already have them made so you get it right away which is convenient if you're in a rush. You can either order to go or choose to eat inside. Either way this place is definitely a hidden gem and deserves the recognition. Definitely coming here again!

We walked in by chance as we were visiting another restaurant and saw they had sesame balls on the counter. Dang, we should have stopped here first, we only bought some desserts on this go around as we already had dinner in hand. We'll be back, the soups, sticky rice, all the plates leaving the kitchen looked amazing and were reasonably priced. Service appeared to be quick and ambiance was small and cozy, but family friendly and welcoming. We'll be back and try some more items, just trying their desserts left us salivating for more.

LA Kitchen ( pronounce as Lah kitchen ) not like the well known abbreviations of Los Angeles city L.A . Say it like La La La Kitchen. My first time here with bestie treating me to lunch . Ample parking space shared with other local businesses in the area. Mainly a take out establishment , no wait staff , order / pay for food at the counter . Should you want to dine in there are seatings available at first come first serve basis. Self service station for plates and utensils. I normally would not order curry at restaurants, since hubby wanted to try , we opted for #11 red chicken curry w/ steam rice. I am a changed person now , definitely will try this dish again when I am in town . Such a delicious meal... Crispy pork belly , oohhh crispy, tasty of fat dripping down my lips . Be sure to dip in the sauce provided makes for a delicious finger licking morsels. The only dish I didn't care for was the combination pad thai . Flavors were great , I just think next go around stick to one type of protein. I didn't expect much from the employees ,since it is a take out establishment. I was pleasantly surprised each and every one of the employees I encountered were friendly , they welcomed us in with pleasantry greetings . We were most impressed by this one particular young lady Lana .. she outshined the rest by her friendly demeanor & her knowledge of the menu . She recommended some of the dishes to try , the beef lab, lao sausage & sticky rice , papaya salad all were great choices. Lana's eagerness in helping to gather some plates and utensils while we seated were much appreciated . Sometimes later she stop by to check in on us, provided more napkins and also to clear some of our dirty plates . Definitely visiting again when I am in the area .

We went around 6pm and there was hardly anyone in line or seated which was great for us because we came hungry. I was craving the kapoon (red curry noodle) and my friend got the green curry chicken. Both of our dishes were delicious and the curry was just the right spice. We also ordered two Thai tea, it was sooo good. The inside of the restaurant was nice, when you come through the door you can order to go or order to eat in house. Overall, will visit again.

I wanted to update and give LA Kitchen 5 stars. My SIL's father had passed away and I reached out to the owner to order a large order for his funeral. It was maybe 4-6 trays of kua mee. Not only were they able to accommodate this order for a reasonable price, they kindly delivered it to the funeral home. The funeral home was within a 1-2 mile radius. Although not far, it takes a load off for a grieving family. Also my recent orders were vegetarian friendly. They had tofu and made tofu pad thai and tofu curry. It was delicious! My interactions with the owner have always been above and beyond positive. My bf mentions stories he has heard of how the owner always tries to give back to the community. Thank you so much to LA Kitchen for your delicious food and love to the community and others. Please continue to support this local gem.

So good. Love the pork belly and sticky rice. Also love the pho and Kaopoon. Customer service is good. Haven't had a bad experience yet.

Authentic lao food can't go wrong here friendly staff and the owner was really nice I usually get the fried pork belly and papaya salad

My wife and I were visiting her grandmother at a nearby assisted living facility when hunger struck as we were leaving. Naturally, I turned to Yelp to find a new restaurant to try. I tend to prefer mom-and-pop places, and this one didn't disappoint. Though I don't know the full backstory, it had all the hallmarks of a great local spot. The service was good, the food was delicious, and the lady who greeted us at the register was adorable and very sweet. Wanting to expand my culinary horizons, I decided to try the crispy pork with sticky rice and an order of spicy beef larb. I had never had larb before, so I looked up a description: "Larb Gai is a traditional dish from Thailand and Laos; it's a meat salad typically made with ground chicken or pork and flavored with lime, garlic, chili peppers, palm sugar, fish sauce, and rice powder. It's an explosion of flavor with spicy, sour, sweet, and salty notes in each bite." I went with the beef larb, opting for the "spicy" level, one of five levels they offer (mild, medium, spicy, hot, extra hot). To my surprise, the "spicy" was a bit hotter than I expected, but still really good. The flavor was different from what I'm used to, but I had no problem finishing it. I'd like to order it again now that I know what to expect, so I can fully appreciate the abundance of goodness in this dish. The crispy pork with sticky rice came with a flavorful sauce that had a nice spicy kick. It tasted like it had a lot of garlic and ginger, but I couldn't quite pinpoint it--just know it was delicious. Overall, I was very happy with the food. The staff was friendly, the place was clean, and the wait time was maybe eight minutes--pretty fast for freshly prepared food. I have no complaints. If you haven't tried this place, I'd encourage you to give it a shot. It's the kind of restaurant I'd love to visit with a group, so we can order different dishes and sample a bit of everything. Loved it!

Portions are huge. The fried pork belly is amazing. Fresh spring rolls were amazing. Noodles were good. I will try this place again. Seems like the menu is really solid Super fast service for take out. Restaurant is clean and the staff is friendly.

Service was great, it's an order at the counter once, but they keep things stocked and care for their customers! Clean and relaxing atmosphere, clean restrooms. The food was AMAZING! The Pad Thai is the best I've tried in the area! We'll be going back for sure!

The food here is quite expensive. I was craving that raw salmon larb cus I seen a pic of it online and I remembered this place has it! That mf was $19.99 but it was sooo goood!!! I asked them to make it really spicy so you can see it didn't lack any of that judging from my picture! I also grabbed the fried chicken and rice and tbh it didn't hit like how it used to. The chicken was dry af!!! It came with rice and the spicy dipping sauce. No complaints on the rice n sauce. It was just the dry fried chicken. I even got the steamed pork belly and bamboo. I usually order mok pah which is steamed fish in the banana leaf with the fragrant herbs but I decided to try pork belly & bamboo instead. It was okay. Needed more flavor tbh. All I tasted was bamboo. And lastly I got the fried pepper snack. I wouldn't get it again just cus it's pricey and it lacked flavor and spice. I had some before that had a kick and even had a good amount of flavor from the sesame seeds and fried lime leaves and whatever else they be putting in those. But it wasn't from this place. The service was koo. She was attentive even tho the place was busy af!! The place is a far drive from me so I probably won't be back unless I'm on that side of town craving lao/thai food. And I'd probably just stick to the phos and Thai boats and raw salmon larb.

Not the best pho place to eat at. The room feels a bit crowded. The service was great though. Nice staff.

Such an aroma the chicken wasn't dried out the fragrance lingered in the air as you stepped in to place an order Service was good the place was crowded but the attention to service was on hit wOW I paid attention to the woman of the hour as she boxed up the orders from the kitchen. Atmosphere and comments being said I while waiting on my order when I mouth tasted the chicken it was juicy I could not wait for my next bite. My first time I'm sold

Based on this dish, I love coming here because this feeds two people. I don't live in the area but when I am, I would come here. I highly recommend this place. I would like to try other things to see if they are good with other things. On this visit I also ordered the vegetable spring roll. It was just lettuce, cabbage, and carrots. You really can't mess that up. The prices are fair here. The atmosphere is clean. I would recommend this place to everyone.

food is always super good here! a friend of mine had recommended this spot to me since she knew the family that owns it, I've had the pork belly recommended by her and the Chicken and rice plate. Both are amazing! I would frequent here after the gym when I'd go to GB3. Super fast and super kind people. The place can be pretty busy sometimes but I'm always helped in a timely manner.

Service was good and food was also good, forgot to take pictures of the other food I got but was a good place to sit down and relax

Food quality has gone down since they opened. Door is always dirty. You seat yourself on the side and it's extremely poor customer service on that end. If you order at the register, cashier seems polite enough. I won't be going back.

I tried this restaurant today--the food was decent, not the best Koapiak I've had, but not the worst either. The portion is big that I didn't finished. The place is pretty small, seating around 30-40 people or around 7 tables. It's an order-first, seat-yourself kind of setup, and they'll bring your food to your table when it's ready. I definitely am ready to try the other dishes next time around.

Came all the way from NC. I give a 10/10 on proportion. Only finish 1/4 of my bowl of Oxtail pho special. Broth was a little heavy to my liking, compared to the normal pho broth I normally taste from the Midwest to the East Coast. Also a very strong msg taste to the broth. The mango papaya was 11/10 and the Sugar Cane Lime Ginger was awesome. I've should had order one to go.

We're from L.A. and searched for restaurants on Yelp--found LA Kitchen. Man, this place is legit! The food is amazing. The Thai noodle soup is incredibly good and authentic. I'll definitely be coming back since my daughter has moved here. We met the owner--he's super nice and friendly. Definitely hidden gem!

The food and service is fantastic! The sounds of 90's hip hop and pop playing in the background hits each time I've been in. My family and I order the fried pork belly and rice plate and it was the chef's kiss! Buttery yet that crispy shell, yum . My date order the beef Pho which was perfect. My husband ordered the chicken pho and he left full and happy. I ordered the Kaphoon A and the umami flavor with pork belly was so delicious its now my favorite bowl. LA kitchen comes highly recommended from this food lover.

You have to order at the front before sitting down! Came here on a Friday night around 6. Pretty packed, hard to find parking but I think it's because this place is right next to a GB3. The inside is small, a bit crowded but I think it was just because it was so packed. I ordered the heavenly jerky, I think it probably the best Laos jerky I've had in Fresno! It pairs great with the jeol. Again, I also think that their jeol is the best bought one I've ever had. Making jeol at home is always good but now I know if I want some and am not up for making it, I can always buy it here at LA kitchen! The heavenly jerky is sweet, savory, and not chewy. For being a jerky, it was very easy to tear. Came out pipping hot, like they just got done deep frying it! Pork belly: not the biggest fan. A lot of the piece were straight up fat, hardly no meat. Was a bit cold, because it was a bit cold, the fatty pieces weren't the most appetizing. Chicken larb: very good! I personally like how they make it, it has a lot of that roasted rice powder flavor. Next time I'll get their raw beef larb! The flavor profile might be a little too strong to those who don't eat larb as often, but to each their own. It is a bit over powering, salty, and savory. The only thing I'd say is, I wished it had more herbs! But that's okay. Thai tea: pretty average. More on the milky side. Service: 10/10. Owner came out and asked how everything was going, how everything tasted despite being super super busy. Really nice and friendly over here at LA Kitchen.

Food is always amazing .. customer service always great makes you feel right at home . Food is always fresh and the quality is always on point !!

Came here for sugarcane juice but they did not have any. We ordered roast pork, papaya salad, and mango sticky rice. Kinda disappointed about the sugarcane juice but their roast pork is so good. The skin is so crispy and meat was perfectly cooked. It also came with a side dipping sauce which goes well with the roast pork. Papaya was kinda meh to me. The flavors are there but need more ingredients. It felt like there's only papaya and slices of tomatoes instead of cherry tomatoes. It lack in ingredients like Thai eggplant and long beans. They also didn't give any cabbage and rice noodles to eat with papaya salad. Overall I would not order papaya salad but would come back for roast pork and their specialty fried chicken with rice.

The food here has always been amazing but I was extremely shocked by the service today. Amy took my order at the counter and immediately after I paid for my food and sugar cane, she turned around to this heated food cabinet to grab a premade togo box of what I ordered. When she turned back around, I explained that I was dining in and it wasn't for to-go. I didn't say it in a rude way at all but she slammed down the bag and gave me a dirty look and said "Why didn't you tell me that at the beginning?" and proceeded to tell me to "Just go find an empty table and sit down". Maybe she was having a bad day but she did not need to be so condescending and rude. I sat down and waited less than five minutes for my food so I really don't understand why she had to be so mean if it didn't take much time at all for the kitchen to make it for dine in. I don't ever write reviews but this interaction was just so extremely rude and left a bad impression of the restaurant on me. She also never made my sugar cane, and I had to ask another staff for it.

Staff was so nice and accommodating. We popped in during what we thought was rush hour, but it just turns out that this place is nonstop busy! I ended up getting the orange chicken with half chow mein and half fried rice. The chow mein was so good and was actually my favorite part! The fried rice, on the other hand, wasn't really flavorful and was so sticky that it came in clumps. I definitely want to come back for a sugarcane juice-- it looks delicious!

My family and I live down the street and regret not venturing out to this area sooner. We've been missing out! We ordered sticky rice plates: 1, 2A, 3, and 4. We were surprised at the serving size. Their sugar cane juice is sweet and yummy! Their gel is on point. Love that they have indoor seating available.

Amazing, Love the food here. Service is always great. And the owner to the place such a sweet lady

LA Kitchen is like the bustling heart of Southeast Asian cuisine in town, with a menu that really shines in its Laotian offerings. Yeah. they've got some Chinese dishes, but let's be honest, there are better places for that in the area. The real magic happens with their fried pork belly pho, egg rolls, and fried chicken. The pho is so rich and dense, it feels like a comforting hug in a bowl--if a hug could also clog your arteries with deliciousness. The egg rolls are crispy perfection, and the fried chicken? Let's just say, if fried chicken had a fan club, I'd be president (and a great deal). The service at LA Kitchen is consistently good, even when the place is packed like a clown car. Timing your visit matters; arrive during peak hours, and you'll feel like you're at a concert without a ticket. It's worth it, though--trust me, I've brought so many friends here that they've all started bringing their friends, and now I'm considering charging a finder's fee. The ambiance at LA Kitchen is cozy and inviting, though it's often as busy as a bee at a flower convention. This place is popular, and for good reason. So, if you're looking for a meal that's worth every minute of the wait, head to LA Kitchen--just maybe keep it on the down-low so we don't have too long of a line out the door.

Great price for the amount of food you get. When we visited, looked like every table had the Thai Boat as the main reason why they were here. We did not order the Thai Boat unfortunately but from the way it was repeatedly ordered and the weather is cooling for the locals, I think that's where the money is at. We ordered the papaya salad at medium spicy, it was a little too spicy for me so quick heads up if you're normally a med spicy person, might need to step it down a little here. The crispy pork belly was amazing, got a full order of that, we also got some fried egg rolls, the skin was so light/airy/crispy that I can see why it's a popular item. Also ordered combo pineapple fried rice and beef larb. Everything was so delicious, the owners were so nice and the service was awesome. Watch out for the sharp chair backs on some of those chairs though, I leaned on one and it was very painful.... just be careful where you place your hand/butt. Clean restaurant and clean bathrooms. Will be back again!

First of all, the interior. It was pretty small. I had to share table with a couple. It sat for 6 people. They took one end and I took the other end. It was ok, but not a preference for sure. It is what it is. Second, I did have to get my own drink, napkins, and containers. Once you're seated, they'll just bring you food and not check on you. With that being said, they forgot about me and I had to get their attention that they forgot my pho. Eh... Customer service was quite off. Lastly, the food. I ordered their special pho with rib and crispy pork belly. I gave the pho a solid 7.5/10. It wasn't bad. The rib and crispy pork belly definitely gave it some points for sure. The cucumber papaya was ON POINT! That was a solid 9/10 for me. It was really good and refreshing. SOLID sauce and taste! I'll definitely come back. I'd rate it 3.5/5 stars if I could.

Known for its Lao/thai food, the crispy pork belly is a hit here! The belly has a nice crispy crunch to the skin and the ratio from fat to lean meat is good. You get some fattiness and the lean meat so it's not a full on chicharron. You dip the belly into the hot sauce and eat it with sticky rice. This a great combo! They offer a variety of other dishes as well. The chicken thighs are highly recommended along with that sauce dip. The dip itself has a nice control spiciness that numbles a little but keeps you wanting to eat more of it. Service can be crazy and should be fixed. It seems like a mad dash to just order food at the register.

I've already been here a few times and this place has been worth the drive both times. Their Thai Boat Pho is VERY good and they definitely don't skimp out on the pork belly! Everyone is so friendly and even when it's busy you're greeted. This place always seems very family oriented and I love seeing the big crowds fill it up! No doubt about it, I'll be going back!

Best Lao Thai spot in Fresno! The pork belly with sticky rice is addicting! The papaya salad add a perfect kick of heat. Service if fast and helpful. Restaurant is clean and plenty of seating. The kao poon was all delicious. I wanted to try everything on the menu. I'll definitely going back soon. Wish I had taken pictures but I got so excited to eat I forgot to take any.

This is our go-to spot! We probably come here at least once a month if not more. We also always order from here when we have family over from out of town and they always love it! I've truly enjoyed every dish I have ever ordered here. Some of the standout dishes are the crispy pork belly (sauce is amazing), spring rolls (sauce is amazing), and of their larb (shrimp and chicken are our faves), papaya, and their chicken plates. Pro tip: They usually have their chicken plates ready to go so you can just get one real quick for lunch. The chicken is perfectly cooked and so juicy! Also, my Mexican spicy gene is broken lol so I can't handle too much spicy. Their "mild" for papaya and larb are still on the spicier side so just a heads up. They can take it out or adjust it as you want. We typically only do Togo here but there are a few tables inside that are first come first serve.

First time doing today and it was amazing! 10/10. I got the crispy pork belly and sticky rice. Whatever that sauce is that they give. I need to ask for 3 next time. I dipped my rice and pork belly in it. So good! Definitely will be a repeat customer!
