About 30 min outside of Nashville city center but totally worth the trip! Family owned and operated for over a decade+, they have a strong local following so it was nice to see a packed house of repeat customers despite the icey cold weather! They had been closed for a few days due to really harsh winter weather conditions so I was so happy to see them open this day! Ordered a bit of everything since my stomach could not decide on just one thing as everything on their menu all sounded so appetizing! Ordered the fried appetizer sampler, I was solo dining but this was definitely enough for 2-4 ppl to share. Wasn't in the mood for noodles but ordered a bowl of just the pho broth. The broth was very rich, a tad too salty and a bit too much cinnamon for my taste but it still warmed me right up! For lunch the pork laap salad with a side of sticky rice at a level 5 spicy was just pure perfection. The balance of flavors was spot on and the kick of heat from the spice level really took it to a notch! Also ordered their whole fried fish of the day and it was beautiful crispy on the outside and tender white flesh on the inside. I will for sure be back here to try their other dishes when I'm back down in the Nashville area for work!

It's been a minute but I always love coming here. A little…read morehidden gem. Its the closest to authentic Home cooking Laos and Thai food you can get. I'm not saying it as good as my mamas cooking but it's almost as good if I'm looking for something that's hard to make hard to find that you may have seen at some party you went to this is the place to stop at. The food was good as usual. Service was great. They're helpful and attentive and as quick as they can be. I would recommend that you go in and take a visit and try some real food. The restaurant is a little out-of-the-way a little inconspicuous looking but well worth searching and finding your way there. If you want to try as close as you can get to eating at my mom's house go there and try it out and give them a chance. The food is good. The price is reasonable. You won't regret it. It's a small place but I think with advance notice they can accommodate large parties. Before I leave this review- this has to be the best Thai Tea I've had in many years. They're not watering down any flavors!

Highly recommend King Market Restaurant for authentic Lao food, affordable prices, a clean environment, and excellent service!

This was our choice for lunch on a recent trip to the Nashville area. I'm glad we tried it!…read more This restaurant is inside a medium-sized grocery store. We didn't explore the grocery that much but it seemed like it had a nice balance of dry food goods, refrigerated items, and small objects, mostly either for cooking or the occasional gift. It was clean inside and being a grocery store had a good bit of parking outside. The restaurant is on the far right as you enter. We were greeted warmly and told to seat ourselves. Menus were delivered promptly. I ordered a Thai tea to drink. Hubs got the fried shrimp appetizer and we both chose noodles for lunch; he opted for pad see ew and I got drunken noodles. The restaurant was fairly busy but despite the crowdedness it still felt easy to have conversation with each other. Our food came out quickly but had clearly been cooked fresh. The Thai tea was the one thing that didn't hit at all. It had a very intense flavor that I couldn't quite place compared to all the other Thai teas I've had. Could just be this one is more traditional, lol. But it wasn't quite as sweet as I'm used to and it almost had a subtly salty vibe; I wouldn't get it again. That said, the cooked food items were quite good. The breading on the shrimp was incredibly crispy and even I liked them well enough at first; the flavor was light and the texture not rubbery. We did ultimately realize these shrimp had not been deveined, which is not our preference but I understand it's not a requirement to be able to eat them. The noodle dishes really shone, though. Hubs liked his pad see ew and we both thought my drunken noodles were even better. Lots of tender but still-crisp veggies in both. Strong and pleasantly aromatic basil flavor in mine. Large portion sizes. The noodles were cooked well and were pleasantly chewy. Mine was lightly spicy but nothing intense; I wound up adding more chili oil from the small container on the table. Service was a highlight throughout; the women working were very personable, got us to-go boxes, and were attentive to any other needs we had. Lots of menu choices here and fresh food prepared quickly. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area.

Definitely a hit and I really like the sauce that they were served with. The chicken satay was nice and moist, but it did lack just a smidgen of seasoning. Overall, the food was very good and satisfying.

We enjoyed it so much that we went the next day before we left! The food is priced very fairly and the menu has a really fun twist where there isn't the traditional appetizer, main, dessert. Everything is meant to be shared and you're encouraged to try new dishes and choose from anywhere on the menu. I have a peanut allergy and they were very accommodating and automatically made any necessary adjustments to dishes we ordered. We tried a couple different drinks and they were all very good and fairly priced. We went on weekend nights and only had to wait around 20 minutes to be seated indoors, which was to be expected as this place was packed with people and we would have been willing to wait longer if needed. We had two different servers, I unfortunately can't remember our first one's name but she was the one with stretched ears that normally wears her hair up. She was great and very thorough in explaining how the menu worked. The second night we had Lexi and she was super sweet. They were both fantastic and I hope to be seated with either one of them when we eventually go back!

For the Kra Prao Moo Kai Doo, the Minced pork was very moist with plenty of flavor. There was a ton of rice served with it lol.

They were bringing out our food while we still trying to figure out what fountain drink to get. Everything was piping hot and the presentation is was incredible! Ambiance It's quite open inside.

The noodles were cooked perfectly, and the tofu was browned to perfection. The grilled broccoli and cauliflower were snappy and contrasted well with the rest of the ingredients. The dish had a spicy yet tolerable kick to it, but I have a very high threshold for spice and heat (I added chili oil to take it up a notch!). Also, the portion size is BIG. I was very hungry so I had no issues finishing most of it, but it could easily be shared between two adults, especially if you order an appetizer or side. I loved the interior decor, which was simple yet eye catching. The mural encompassing the entire space in particular looked really cool. The place was packed, but the friendly staff were hustling to keep the line moving.

First time the service was horrendous the food was borderline and nothing appears to be authentic Thai. After the waiter kid stared at my plates on the kitchen window for about 10 minutes he finally brought them to me I'm sitting at the bar watching him watch my food motionless also apparently needing a reboot. The noodles on the plate were one solid clump that I picked up with my fork in one go and the green Thai curry was terrible. There is also no excuse for such pathetic service when there was maybe 4 tables occupied in the whole restaurant. I was stuck in the restaurant an hour and a half due to completely oblivious and incompetent employees. When I eat out by myself I would normally get in and out of a restaurant within 30 minutes (45 minutes would be a long stay) today I walk in and take a seat to wait for my to go order, the waitresses is standing in the doorway of the kitchen with a plate and a massive smile on her face with a blind stare in her eyes standing motionless seriously like the main frame needs to be rebooted or something.
