"An award‑winning, Michelin‑recommended Lao street food restaurant based in Duluth whose team is opening a new Lao/Thai/Cambodian concept in Chamblee later this year." - Henna Bakshi
"Michelin-recommended and ever-popular Snackboxe Bistro has moved from its Doraville location in the H Mart complex to Duluth. Since opening in 2018, the Lao restaurant has gained an avid following — and for good reason. Chef Thip Athakhanh mixes traditional Lao dishes and street foods with beloved home recipes passed down from her family. Expect plates of larb (meat salad), khao poon (spicy rice noodle soup), and the popular mok pha (steamed fish) with street foods such as fried garlic-pepper wings, lemongrass spare ribs, and tapioca pearl dumplings here. Best for: Affordable and vibrant Laotian fare." - Eater Staff
"Chef Thip Athakhanh mixes traditional Lao dishes and street foods with beloved home recipes passed down from her family on the menu at Snackboxe Bistro in Duluth. On a cold day, nothing beats a bowl of the restaurant’s khao piek sen (rice noodle chicken soup) or the sukiyaki beef and meatball noodle soup with fermented tofu paste. Pair these soups with an order of garlic-pepper wings, too." - Eater Staff
"Every meal at Snackboxe Bistro should really begin with the crispy, bite-sized vegetable egg rolls filled with carrots, onions, and scallions. The egg rolls at Snackboxe pair particularly well with the lemongrass spare ribs, Lao sausage, and tofu laap platter." - Beth McKibben
"The Laotian restaurant’s nam khao is one of metro Atlanta’s most vibrant salads. Crispy coconut rice is combined with fermented pork (or tofu) and served as a lettuce wrap. Chopped peanuts give it an extra layer of crunch. Each bite strikes the balance between salty, sweet, and spicy." - Lia Picard
