Our visit was a mixed bag of some highs and major lows. I'm not sure there was anything that wowed us to entice a return visit any time soon but if you find yourself here, I can at least recommend the massaman curry and pad woon sen noodles. The massaman curry here is insanely creamy and tasty, with a hearty helping of vegetables. We ordered it with tofu, which came in cubes of the soft, unfried variety. Paired with rice, this was a winning dish. The pad woon sen - a savory glass noodle dish - can also be ordered with one's choice of protein. We liked it well enough with the chicken, and found it to be well-seasoned. Our server brought us some hot chili sauce on the side, and the spice lover in me was only too happy to heap spoonfuls of it over everything. Our interactions with servers we
Although I wanted to go to this restaurant this Wednesday which was the day of Laotian independence day, I am happy I was able to have this done within the very week of Laos having its national holiday. My first taste of Laotian cuisine was a delight: I had the Larb which is a special salad of Laotian culture. I loved the the way the chicken was prepared with the cabbage, cilantro and scallion mix, and the sticky rice. Lastly, the mango sticky rice which I had before from Thai restaurants was magnificently appealing.
I ordered the pork chop through UberEats, and I honestly couldn’t believe how bad it was. The flavor was unpleasant from the first bite, the texture made it even worse, and finishing it felt impossible. This wasn’t just below average — it was truly inedible for me. I haven’t tried their other dishes, so maybe those are better, but this pork chop was an unforgettable disappointment — and not in a good way.
If you are looking for a true hole in the wall experience, then you should visit. Pho Thai Laos. The owners are offering a cuisine that is a mix of Thai and Laotian . Everything is made from scratch. The owners have been there for 20 years. While the decor is outdated the food is outstanding. Last night we started with Edamame and Vegetable Dumplings. The dumplings were steamed, moist and delicious with their variations of soy sauce.As you can see by the menu board they had a number of specials. We had the shrimp avocado curry and the salmon green curry. The rice was cooked to perfection. The restaurant is located by the old Maywood train station which makes the area very quaint. Parking is ample along the side of the building or the back. If you are looking for a variation of Thai food
