This establishment is the O.G of Lao restaurants in the fairfield area of which many have come and…read moregone, Lao Village has managed to stand the test of time and well known for it's no frills authentic dishes. You know it's good when an eatery has looked the same since it's opened it's doors in the early 80s and people are still sitting outside on milk crates salivating while they wait for their turn. Usual Lao suspects are on the menu but their standout dishes here are definitely the Lao Style Som Tum - Papaya Salad & Lao Sausage - the best here!

Food is alright. I quite liked the thai iced tea, but the service is horrible. The people taking…read moreour orders looked upset that we chose to eat there and when we asked for utensils, they were not pleased.

Really cheap Thai food...they have several specials for only $9.40, such as Pad Thai, Spicy Fried…read moreRice, Pad See Ew, etc. The curries and stir fry cost a little more and service is pretty quick. That being said, if their Pad Thai is any indication of the rest of their food, this place is hella cheap but hella weak...you get what you pay for. Tasted like they doused a ton of vinegar and used tomato sauce for the Pad Thai...it was just strange. I did order fried chicken as well and that was pretty good...but the Pad Thai was some of the worst I've had. Probably won't go back, will pay a premium for Wok Station instead or check out the other Thai restaurant in the area.

What an incredible find! A small busy restaurant that is cheap and very friendly. The atmosphere is…read morebusy, people moving around, the staff rushing to tables or preparing food. I counted 12 staff members. The food is very fresh. It is prepared in a kitchen that you can see. There is only a bench that divides the kitchen from the tables of the restaurant. The openness of the restaurant encourages people to look in and smell the fantastic aromas. The restaurant can get a little warm and flies are attracted to the food. There are no windows to the restaurant, just an open area. The food comes out very quickly but the entrees came out after the mains. The food was very cheap, $10 meals.

Decanso means "relax" in Spanish and Tagalog, and the quaint little cafe perfectly reflects that. The atmosphere was casual and the food homey, like eating at a friend's house. Food was delicious. The lumpia had a strong vegetal taste, clearly home made. The tapsilog with garlic rice hit the spot, and the spicy lechon was a hearty way to start the day.

The place is a short walk from the Sydney fish market and offers a selection of awesome coffee and delicious breakfast. You can't go wrong with any of their specials. Would definitely visit this place again if we ever find ourselves back in Sydney. A very nice little place and outstanding service to match

Fried ice cream,banana fritters and fried dough sticks with coconut ice cream and pandan sauce are just yum! Service wise though I found it a bit slow for the food to come out and staff would disappear at times,I found it staff to ask for the bill! And our desserts felt like it took ages! Best thing about this place is the desserts!

So crispy and so juicy inside every each bite has good flavor of seafood taste!! Omg especially when i deep the sauce kind of sweet and lilbit spicy? Delicious!!!! Fried knuckle-nothing to say but delicious!! This is really good crispy and juicy be honest a lot of fat in there but good taste of fat!!!! It's just melting in your mouth. Good and good!! The sauce whatever comes with? Just like Heaven!! I know it's maybe bothering you but I'm telling you the true.. good! Vermicelli salad with seafood-I usually I love this salad every Thai restaurant I go but this wasn't good as what I thought. Because need more lime and less sugar.. too sweet for me and even for my sister too.. but the seafood was so fresh and noodles was perfectly cook so I will just say good this dish too Steam rice-perfectly cook enough sticky Laos sausage- not for me but my family said it's good but sorry I'm not a sausage person but I can only tell this sausage is juicy and tender mean is good I guess. This Laos restaurant was bomb! It was delicious and before I leave I really want to try again!!!!

This place We loved the kai jiew bpu (crab omelette) (5/5)- crispy on the outside, fluffy inside, and packed with rich crab flavor, plus the golden puff was totally crave-worthy.

There are plenty of eateries of similar elk around Haymarket and this one stands up quite well. The hand made noodles are bouncy with the right amount of chewiness and go well with both soup or stir fries. I tried the beef noodle soup with plenty of chilli kick and it was very comforting. The broth was clear and light which is pure delight after a long tiring day. As I am a glutton, I ordered 5 cumin lamb skewers for myself which were well cooked with the right amount of fat and juices dripping off them. The staff don't speak much English but the menu has pictures so all is well =)

Chinese Noodle Bar is a quite a generic name for a restaurant but it highly under-sells the…read morehandmade dishes on the menu. This north-western Chinese style restaurant is probably one of the only Halal certified Chinese places around Sydney. SHALLOT PANCAKE $7 The pancake was good taste-wise however the texture did disappoint by being too doughy. BBQ LAMB SKEWER $2.50 each The lamb skewers were packed with flavour and tasted very different from traditional 'chinese' flavours as they were seasoned with cumin and chili pepper. After getting the meat off the hot metal rods, it tasted very similar to a kebab but with more charred bits as more of the meat is exposed to the flame. It was delicious and cheap. BRAISED NOODLE SOUP $12.80 The classic taste and texture of freshly handmade noodles is the star. The noodles were more cylindrical like spaghetti instead of the slightly flattened ones at others similar places. The noodles are cooked to a very enjoyable texture. The broth is light and flavoured with beef, tomato and onion which was quite generic. The chunky pieces of beef were quite generous. It's a homemade style dish that could not be done at home(unless you know how to make your own noodles) if that makes sense. Conclusion Even for a restaurant of this range, it is kind of grubby and will not entice you to go in. The clumsy service might make you leave until you receive your bowl of noodles. Noodles and skewers were very good. The flat noodles also looked tempting but that's for next time. @thesydneynoob
