    Fried intestine
    DJ S.

    Busy with many tables filled at 3pm on Labor Day! Just shows what a great restaurant this is and how many people want to patronize it! Great variety of Laotian food! So many dishes to choose from! I opted for the fried intestines as app and Mee ga tee! Fried to perfection, light crispy batter and tender intestine with perfect dipping sauce. Mee ga tee was Rich, creamy, bursting with flavor, and absolutely delicious! Gives me Thai Khao soi vibes! I'll definitely be back to try other dishes!!

    Clean and cute ambiance. Greeted upon entering the venue. Order the Ka Piet Sen, Thum pah, sticky rice, and crab fried rice. Service time was good, cook to order.

    Crying Tiger
    Lindy C.

    Really yummy Lao food!!! We ordered the Nam Khao Lao (crispy rice), Crying Tiger, and Crispy Pork Belly. Everything was so delicious, the crying tiger was my favorite. Every bite I took was like the first one...the smoky char taste paired with the sauce is so addicting. The crispy rice was so flavorful and tastes even better when you eat it with the chilies. Unfortunately I don't have a high tolerance to Southeast Asian spice so half a chili did enough for me. The pork belly was light and the fried crust was perfect. I also paired our meal with a thai coffee and it was deletable - so strong yet not bitter. Service was very nice despite it being busy, it feels like a cozy small business passionate about their culture and food.

    My friend and I wanted Lao food so we stopped by Lao Kitchen for lunch. We waited for a few minutes to be seated. She was by her self greeting people and serving the food. Food: Kao Poon Nam - Vermicelli, Chicken Feet, Pork Blood Cube, Cilantro, Green Onion with Red Curry Broth Pad See Ew - Stir-Fried Flat Noodle with Egg and Chinese Broccoli. I was bummed that they did not offer Tofu as a protein. The Pad See Ew did have a great taste and smokey flavor. The Kao Poon soup was also delicious. I'd return again and try different dishes.

    Hands down the best Lao restaurant I've had in Las Vegas! I've tried several Lao spots around town, and this one is easily my favorite. The food is authentic, flavorful, and tastes like home. Everything we ordered was delicious and hit the spot. As a Lao person, I'm always looking for those familiar flavors, and this place delivers every time. Definitely a must whenever I'm in Vegas!

    Fried pork belly
    Amanda S.

    Going in the place was very nice and clean, a little small but had a good amount of seating options. We were a party of 8 and it was easy to accommodate us. Service was friendly, a little slow but I won't hold them on that one too much considering there was only one server and it did get busy not too long after we arrived. Almost all the tables filled up. We ordered a big spread and tried just about the whole menu lol. The khao piak the broth was on the sweeter side and the noodles tasted a little raw like it didn't cook all the way through and we got 3 bowls of it. Nam khao was too wet and the flavor was ok. Tom keung nai we got it 2 ways, one bitter and one sour, it didn't taste like authentic tom keung nai to me. The sausages were good, those are usually a hit or miss at most Lao/Thai restaurants so I was glad those came out good. It did come out with a sauce that was kind of weird, we didn't like it. Not sure what that sauce was. Chicken skin was delicious but I wish we had papaya salad to eat it with. We were waiting for the papaya the whole time but turns out it was missed and didn't get put in so we didn't get to try it. Pork laab was pretty good too and had big slices of liver which I liked because I love liver. Fried squid was my favorite, it had a good crisp and texture to the batter, has that with jeow some and it was great. The pork belly I just used it to throw into my khao piak, it was cooked perfectly. Fried chicken was nicely fried and the flavor was there. Pork jowl was delicious, it made me think of bbqs with the OGs lol not sure I would give this a second shot though. The main thing I wanted was the khao piak and how the noodles taste undercooked really threw me off.

    Lao Kitchen is a hidden gem in Vegas. The food is delicious and authentic, resembling what our aunties would cook at home or what you might find at Lao family celebrations. It offers great food, great vibes, and a welcoming atmosphere that feels like home .

    Papaya salad
    T D.

    We're from California and were so happy to finally find a restaurant that really suits our taste! Laos Kitchen is such a lovely spot, and the food was amazing. The crispy pork was so good, and the papaya salad was fresh, flavorful, and just the right amount of everything. Definitely one of those places we'd come back to. So glad we found this little gem!

    My friend recommended me to try this restaurant during my visit. Located in a commercial area with free parking lot. No reservations needed, restaurant is good size, able to accommodate small and large groups. The food tastes just like home, almost similar to my cooking. It was still delicious to eat for midnight snack.

    Back at our favorite Lao restaurant. Ordered our usually soups and papaya salad plus chicken skin today. We love this place for their consistency and friendly staff. I can't recommend this place more!

    Laos papaya salad and beef larb

    We ordered the Lao papaya salad, beef larb, kao poon, and pad thai, and honestly, I enjoyed everything we tried! The flavors were really delicious. I personally can't handle much spice, and my boyfriend chose medium spice for the larb and papaya salad. It was definitely spicy for me , but I kept going back for more. The kao poon and pad thai were also delicious and easier for me to handle. Overall, we really enjoyed our meal and service was great. We would definitely come back to try other dishes on the menu.

    First time trying Lao food and I'm obsessed. I love spicy food so my sister put me on to this spot and wow... I'm seriously impressed. Service was great, wasn't busy or too loud so was able to have a decent conversation. We ordered the Pad See Eww, papaya salad (my mouth was on fire in the best way), Nam Khao, chicken larb, and crying tiger. Everything was a 4/5 spice level and full of flavor. I genuinely can't choose a favorite. This is exactly how spicy food should be--bold, flavorful, and not overpowering! I think I found my new favorite spot

    This place is amazing! Friendly staff and great food. We had the papaya salad and the chicken larb. Let me tell you: the larb was great. It wasn't just your regular ground chicken; it had chicken heart and liver. Yummy. The food satiated our hunger after a day of hiking at Red Rock Canyon. I will come back again

    Recently had a work visit to Henderson, NV and wanted to take my wife to Lotus of Siam for some…read moreunique Thai food. Lets be honest I wanted to go because I had gone with some business partners year before during the SHOT Show convention and loved it. We sat at the bar but they had plenty of seating for a 5pm arrival. Their location is convenient to the strip off Flamingo and well worth the Uber or Zoox if they travel to that area. The staff at the bar were all amazing and actually seemed interested in talking to us while prepping for the night. I always find the service off strip to be better, but its merely a generalization as it really comes down to the individual server. Their selection of drinks is like the cheesecake factory menu and very impressive along with some reasonably priced beers and cocktails. One thing lacking olive seltzers, but hey some white girls have to get adventurous sometimes. I got the yuzu lager which was amazing and had to get a couple. My wife got a gin and tonic which had some elderberry flavor in it and she had to drive so I got to finish that bad boy off. For food we always share, because most plates are huge. We got the crispy fried rice which I remembered from years ago which features almost puffy style rice with a lot of amazing aromatics like lemongrass and lime as well as sour pork sausage which I feel just tasted like a typical Chinese sausage but supreme flavorful and not a huge soy flavor. This is a must have at $15 even if just as a starter. The food options are amazing including a lot of Northern Thai options you dont see at a basic bitch Thai restaurant. We also got the Seafood PAd ped which features mussels, squid, scallops, and shrimp in a mushroom lime sauce and boy howdy it was unique and tasty. I could go on and on about the choices but if this is all you eat assuming you like a good mushroom sauce then you will be set as a couple. Big shout out to the staff for making us feel at home in Vegas as Phoenix ferners. The restaurant is super clean with a modenr esthetic and quite large to fit a lot of people. They also have an amazing wine selection that goes as deep as your wallet.
