Lao Lao Bar

Went here for dinner. Do make reservations - it very busy. The decor, the mood and the ambiance is amazing. More of a shareable menu. We ordered Fresh rolls - amazing peanut sauce Tapioca balls - self roll with lettuce - was ok Drunken noodles - taste was great but hardly any tofu pieces Green papaya fritters - very crispy amazing sauce Minced meat salad with shrimp - was cold (wud hv been nice if that was made clear) and tasted alright, mostly hot and acidic. The stew - was alright as well Steamed fish - was alright as well. Nothing stood out food wise. The staff was courteous and polite. Didn't find value for money We booked for a birthday which was mentioned in the reservation but there was no acknowledgement. I understand that it should not be an expectation for the restaurant to celebrate it, but why ask. And especially the 'nicer' places do offer something to celebrate and make it special. Disappointed. .

Came here on a Friday with my wife and 5 month old son. Off the bat, staff were very accommodating with our stroller and seated us at an accessible table even with the place being PACKED. We were served quickly and the waitress was knowledgeable, providing several suggestions on the most popular dishes. The ambience was top tier. The decor was stunning, the music was bumping.. just a great vibe overall. The food was excellent. Highly recommend the tapioca dumplings — it’s not often that I taste something completely different than anything I’ve had before. The Panang Curry was also exquisite — only minor criticism was that the large peas or whatever they are were very bitter. All in all, would definitely come back! Can’t wait to explore more of the menu.

Definitely book a reservation because they get busy! But wow, the food is amazing! So much flavour. Sat at the bar and it was an enjoyable experience. Service was great. Very nice atmosphere inside. I'd definitely go back to try their other dishes. Highly recommend!

This restaurant is very popular, even I went for lunch on a weekday, it was still quite packed. I tried their lunch special, which included an appetizer (spring roll), pad Thai with a choice of chicken or tofu, and a dessert. The dipping sauce for the spring roll and the seasoning for the pad Thai had very similar flavor profiles, likely using the same Thai spicy-sweet-garlic sauce. I enjoyed the pad Thai. It leaned more on the sweet side, with a slight kick of spice, and came with a generous amount of chicken and vegetables. The spring roll and dessert were decent, very typical of Thai or Laotian cuisine. I also really liked their theme—chic and exotic, down to the stylish washroom!

First time having laotian food and was surprised at how unique it was. It was a nice blend between both Thai and Vietnamese flavours. Everything was very tasty with a lot of depth of different types of flavors. The lao bbq chicken and drunken noodles were my personal favorite and would definitely order again.
