I have been meaning to try the bistro out and so happy I finally did! There was a group of 5 of us and we had a variety of different small plates and larger. The lettuce wraps were suggested to us as a good starter and was a big hit! The green curry was the perfect amount of spice and the salmon with tamarind sauce was awesome. I'm already looking forward to the next time I can go back!

I was seated at a table with my friend and the server approached us with an ill-fitting mask. She had been too lazy to open the fan section if it and employ the nose wire. She then pulled her mask OFF and leaned into us very closely and said “I need to see your vaccine cards”. I pulled mine out to show it and she had walked away! Very rude. When she returned, I showed my vaccine card but she didn’t bother to verify it against my photo identification. Weird. I then told her that her mask is on incorrectly and her pathetic excuse was that she can’t breathe . I told her that I too work in food service and I never complain about that because I wear my mask correctly, hence, I can breathe. She refused to wear her mask in a safe manner and kept touching it. Then she brought our tea by touching the mouthpieces of the tea cups. That was when we knew we were not safe eating there. It’s too bad because I had eaten there before and the other server was safe and professional. Anyhow, we went to eat across the street instead and the server wore his mask correctly and was very professional. Food was delicious too.

*sorry, I started eating it already ????* This is really good. I’m a picky eater but I have no complaints about this meal. I ordered angel shrimp & sweet basil salmon w white rice. I tore the shrimp up. They were nice & crispy. The sauce that came with it tastes like a mild duck sauce. I like it. I would definitely give this restaurant another go.????????

Had a wonderful experience and meal! We were there with a party of 13 (including 4 children). All of the staff were very friendly and understanding with the kids who wanted to roam around. The food was amazing - fresh and delicious. The curry fried rice was a highlight for the whole table. Can’t wait to order it for take out soon.

Ordered delivery from here last night and really enjoyed the potpourri of Laotian and Thai specialties. The roast duck with ginger sauce was absolutely terrific, with a pronounced hit of heat from the ginger, while not being totally overpowering. Summer rolls were likewise delicious. All sauces were delicious and the portions were plentiful. Only small complaint is that the veggie dumplings were kind of smushy, but with everything else being as excellent as it was, I would order from here again in a heartbeat.

What a wonderful place to eat. The menu was able to cater to an eclectic group of individuals with various dietary restrictions with ease. The staff was very friendly, too. We loved that they had games and puzzles for the kids to play while they waited for their food. A delicious way to spend our day.

Great new addition to the neighborhood. BYOB.
Went in and tried a wide variety of things from the menu. Jake, the server, was very confident in recommending what to get and skip based on our preferences. The sticky tamarind wings, Laotian sausages and beef pad kee mow were the stars of the show. The grilled Cornish hen was very good as well. Only thing I would change is to get slightly bigger share plates.
Will be back to try more menu items

Best new spot in the area, and I mean it! Great service, patient with out of town and large parties. Food is fabulous and the papaya salad was the only one in America I would deem excellent. Good prices and great food.
