The Rainbow Salad is by far my favorite dish in all of nola!!! I have been to every Thai restaurant in this city and Laksa is where it is at!! Do not miss out on this family owned, delicious and most importantly clean restaurant! They also own the sushi spot at the front of the market and the sushirito has kept me going during my pregnancy. The crunch is amazing and the ingredients are so fresh. Wish I could give this place ten stars!

Ordered the Omu noodles off the board with no pictures or price. Was given a buzzer, which might have been mixed up. Counter person checked it, handled me the silverware for my noodle bowl. Counter person then track me down afterwards to tell me I got the wrong bowl. He reemed me about not knowing my noodles was stir-fried and not a soup. Can't say what that soup was or how it taste, but the Omu noodles was not what I was expected. It tasted like spaghetti sauce, ketchup, and noodles with like 6 small shrimps. Was a bit more on the sour side. Didn't match the picture on their website. Option for spice level of 1-3, and I ordered a 3. It didn't taste spicy, and wishing it would drown out that sour taste. Wanted to like it since it looked authentic, but just not what i was expecting. The mixup kind ruined the experience too.

OMG! If I lived near here, I would order from Laksa Nola all the time! I wish I could have tried more if their menu, but my stomach was destroyed from a long weekend of eating and drinking, so we tried the fresh spring rolls. They looked exactly like the photo. They tasted amazing. I will definitely be returning in future trips to try more of their menu.

I eat here every Monday after the gym and everything I’ve ordered has been delicious. But my all time favorite is the roti wrap. It is so refreshing, filling, and full of flavor. The chef has started to recognize me and has more than once given me appetizers on the house out of generosity. I really appreciate the care and effort they put into their food and it shows.Vegetarian options: As far as I know, every dish can have tofu as its protein in addition to the other options.

Loved my food here! And with counter service, a fabulous meal came at a very affordable price. They easily managed my food allergy, the lady at the counter was friendly and helpful, and my supper was amazing. I'm so glad we ended up here.We'd planned to dine at a pricier place up the street, but the hour and a half wait there wouldn't fit into our schedule, so we walked down to Roch's on the advice of a local fellow also waiting. He was right on point!Dietary restrictions: They knew their ingredients and cooking methods, and I had no problem at all.

We went on a Friday evening around dinner time for take out, so we would have thought it would be the best time to go. Instead we got omu noodles that were okay, if cold, but the chicken tasted old. Got a stomach ache from the meat/eggs, not looking forward to tomorrow. The curry was slightly below passable, but a little gross and oily. The beef also tasted old and was questionable. We could not finish this meal, and threw most of it away after tasting the meat and fearing for our stomachs. We're thankful we didn't risk getting the shrimp or salmon, but it would have probably ended up in the same place. The only thing we were able to finish was the roti, which tasted good, but it is kind of hard to mess up bread. I am not sure how this place got so many 5 star reviews, maybe a weekend night isn't the time to go here. Be aware that this place doesn't really have a kitchen, it is more like food trucks that have opened stalls. So they cook their meat on hot plates and stuff. While the place looks clean/nice, and the location is pretty good, you could find better noodles for a cheaper price at a really great Thai place in walking distance. The service wasn't bad, but they got slow with just a few orders. We don't mean to be mean or negative just because, but wanted to warn someone in case they're hungry and this meal might not work out for them either.

Very disappointed with the food here! I ordered the Burmese Coconut Soup with pork. The soup was very bland and had nearly no flavor or salt. The pork was the driest pork I've ever seen. I ordered for pick-up, which cost nearly $20. At that price, the flavor and quality should at least be average, and this was just not good.

Amazing food! Bright and flavorful with a kick of spice at the medium level! I got the Nan Gyi Thohk salad which was soo delicious! My companion got the Nasi Lemak which he thought was great with perfect spice and good flavor, reminiscent of Tikka Masala to him. The atmosphere of St Roch's market was also great Totally adding this place to my list of favorites for NOLA Asian food!

I love it here and come here as much as I can. I like to get the Burmese tea and the Thai tea; sometimes I’m in the mood for something sweet and sometimes I just want straight up tea and caffeine that’s refreshing without the sugar. They have both options! I like it with half-and-half, but you can also get it with a nondairy option. Definitely try the shumai! I crave those! All the salad options are excellent, especially the tea leaf salad. as an Asian, American I am so glad that this place is here, and would highly recommend it.

Chicken egg rolls are solid meat with daikon rolled up in house! So delish. Also that Laksa bowl is addictive!

The flavor of this laksa is unbelievable. I feel like it must have healing properties. Also, the lady who served us was the nicest person on the planet. This market smells good and feels great inside. Very welcoming.

OMG I love Laksa NOLA! Chef Lin is awesome and her Laksa and Nasi Lemak are exceptional. As a frequent visitor to Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia, and having had the unique opportunity to travel in Myanmar, I can attest that this place is a gem. Amazing depth of flavor and tons of love. Don’t miss out!
