The food was enjoyable, but the service left much to be desired. We waited for 30 minutes only to find out that our order had been "pushed back." When I inquired about getting our spring rolls, I was told it would take an additional 15 minutes. The waitstaff seemed confused about who had taken the orders and which table the food belonged to. It was disheartening to see someone come in for a pickup and leave before we were even informed that our food wasn’t ready while we sat there waiting. It’s disappointing that we won’t return, especially since there aren’t many Thai options in the area, but I’m willing to travel elsewhere for better service.

This is the best Thai food I've had in Rhode Island. The staff is extremely friendly, the portion sizes are just right, and every dish is packed with flavor, perfectly balanced without being overly salty or sweet. I highly recommend the massaman curry and pad woo sen.

The food here is good, but the service is awful. We waited 30 minutes only to find out our order had been delayed. When I asked about our spring rolls, I was told they would take another 15 minutes. The waitstaff seemed confused about who had taken the orders and what food belonged to which table. It was really disappointing to see someone else come in, place an order, and leave with their food while we were still waiting without even being informed that ours hadn't been prepared. It's unfortunate because I was really hoping for a great experience. Thai food options are limited in this area, but I would rather travel somewhere else for better service.

I wasn't feeling great and hadn't eaten much lately, but the Thai soup I ordered for delivery was simply fantastic—definitely deserving of 5 stars on its own. It had comforting flavors and was packed with fresh vegetables and toppings. I'm really looking forward to trying more dishes and visiting the restaurant in person!

This restaurant has quickly become my favorite spot in Laos Square. The food is consistently fresh and full of flavor. Make sure to try the sticky rice menu, which highlights traditional Lao dishes. You shouldn’t miss their Lao specialties—the Lao-style papaya salad is incredible! If you’re in search of authentic Lao cuisine, I highly recommend this place.
