Sticky Rice Cafe

DELICIOUS!!! I enjoyed my meal soooo much. Everything was so tasty and fresh! The waitress was super friendly and service was quick. We even took some sauce home with us. You gotta go here, you will not be disappointed.

This place is absolutely amazing! You won't be disappointed at all with what you get on the menu. The food is fresh and you can really taste that they make the noodles in house. Our waiter was super helpful! He was transparent about the dishes he would recommend and he made sure we had a phenomenal first experience! Whether you want to have this as a date night or casual outing it will be well worth it!

The new space is a nice upgrade from their previous spot. A lot more seating which was very much needed, because even with the bigger space, this place was packed. The food is always delicious. Their crunchy rice is absolutely amazing. I'd eat it as a meal. The spring rolls were also great, and definitely look interesting. I personally am not a fan of the loab, but that is a comment on my own tastes. The staff is absolutely pro. The owner runs this place incredibly well. Everything is clean, food is delivered fast, everyone is kind, and staff happily interacts with the customers.

We had a good experience. The restaurant was packed at 2pm on a random Tuesday, fortunately we didn’t have to wait for a table. We tried a bunch of dishes, the most tasty to me was the crispy rice, Laos style papaya salad and the pork chops. The house mom’s sauce was delicious with the steamy hot sticky rice!

I'm not actually local, but this place is so good I want to go out of my way for it every time i visit my friend in Tennessee. Service and food are both incredible. I tried both the crab rangoons (basic choice, but some of the best I've ever had in my life, soooo perfect and crispy) and the meekatee (spicy, slightly sweet, with toppings like pho). Everything tastes very fresh and well made. The soup was also HUGE.

We went on a Wednesday evening and our party of two had to wait 20 minutes for a table. It was no problem at all—especially once the food came out, as it was well worth waiting for. The staff was super attentive and kind. I loved seeing the owners being involved in the service; it shows how much they really care, and you can see it in quality. Our appetizers couldn’t have been more than a five minute wait, and the mains didn’t take long either. Everything was delicious and the portions were just right. We don’t usually order dessert but I eyed another customer eating the mango sticky rice and it piqued my curiosity, and oh joy am I glad I indulged… Delicious. Don’t skip the mango sticky rice, folks!!! This place is truly a culinary gem of Knoxville. I will be dreaming of it while I’m away.

Stopped after a day at the Knoxville zoo for a lunch/dinner. I've had Thai food at other places and they seemed to have similar dishes although I'm not sure if it's technically Thai or Laosian but it's all delicious nonetheless. They were totally slammed so it took a little while to get it to the table but the server was super attentive and I knew they were working hard to get everyone fed. Food was amazing and so was the service. The bar looked like a nice place to get a beer and watch the big screen TVs.

If i could give this place 10 stars I would. The food was devine, I had the crab rangoon to start (not pictured) but it was the best crab rangoon I have ever had. The pork chop was perfect, perfectly seasoned, perfectly cooked, perfectly prepared. The rice and over easy eggs together with the sauce all together. Just so perfectly cooked and a great meal. The food being as good as it is though isnt even the best part, the owner and her staff are just amazing, made me feel like i was at home eating with friends and this was my first time here. I will 100% be back to try more of this amazing menu and talk with the great people who work here
