I love this place, so does my wife. We eat in on occasion but we mostly do takeout. The food is fantastic. All the people that work here are wonderful, super knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. We get the same things mostly, pad kee mao and we’ll ask them to crisp up the noodles. I’m getting hungry just talking about it! They adjust spicy to taste (I’m a zero, she’s an 8) and portions are generous. I’ll occasionally switch to a green curry and we’ll sometimes get egg rolls; all really delicious. We’ve seen maybe three or four different owners open restaurants in that spot. The current owners and staff are our hands down favorites, lovely people and amazing food.

I had cashew chicken and pork fried rice . The food was bland with no flavor. The fried rice had a weird texture. The restaurant had no ambiance.

We regularly order food from Lao via UberEats and have enjoyed the variety of dishes that are flavored well. Our last 2 orders (including Jan 2024) of the curry dishes were mostly sauce and very little veggies & chicken. Hopefully they will fix the problem soon.

Very good flavors. Great service. Nice variety on menu. Good portion sizes for the price; especially at lunchtime. The best Asian restaurant in the Fox Valley that we've found so far

Waiter was attentive and friendly. Food was good, went there for lunch specials and for the price it was worth it. The spice was right and you can request the level of spice.

Ordered pickup. Pad Thai seemed dry and the hot sauce that came on the side was the most spicy thing we've ever tried. No wonder they put a sign on their door that they don't give refunds for an order that's too spicy! The Thai iced tea was below average as well.

When the restaurant open a few years ago they really tried and the food was amazing! I went back after a year and the flavors weren’t there. I ordered a pho and I had to try everything they had in there to flavor it up. I asked for some sugar and was given salt, needles to say the pho was ruined. They don’t turn the heater on much so it’s always freezing in there. I wish they would go back to when it was a family atmosphere and they prepared everything on the spot. I ordered some spring rolls and they were pre made so the wrapping was very stale. I understand everything went up in price but come on, they increased the prices and made the portion sizes way smaller, I don’t care to pay more but keep the portions the same, especially when taking out.

I love this place for takeout. Super fast and the food is always delicious. We've ordered a lot of different items from their menu and we've never regretted any of our choices. If you like medium levels of heat I recommend you start with a 3 or so.
