But my regular go to is pad Thai with either chicken(no extra charge) or beef (extra charge) Along with a Thai iced tea. You can choose your spice level. Lunch specials are a good portion and includes an appetizer. Can't go wrong with the crab rangoon or spring rolls. I always bounce back between the two. Spacious clean area, friendly attentive staff and you'll be able to hear the people you are talking to. So far I've never had to wait more than a minute to be seated, order taken within a few minutes after receiving menues and food comes out at a timely manner. Stop by and explore a wide variety of dishes from Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam!

Bold flavors and a fun dining experience!!!!!!!…read more Sticky Rice Bites is an excellent spot that really delivers on flavor and creativity. The dishes were fresh, well-balanced, and packed with taste, especially the signature rice bites which were perfectly cooked and seasoned. Every item felt thoughtfully prepared and satisfying. The atmosphere is lively yet comfortable, making it a great place to eat with friends or enjoy a relaxed meal. Service was friendly, quick, and attentive, which added to the overall positive experience. Overall, Sticky Rice Bites stands out for its quality food, great energy, and strong service. A well-deserved five-star spot that I'd happily return to.

We came here for a quick lunch stop on a roadtrip and we are glad we did!…read more The space is bright with various seating options and it was pretty crowded during the lunch hour on a Monday. The service was quick and they helped us figure out what to order, which was nice. The papaya salad was very tasty, and we were able to choose between Thai style and Lao style which was nice to have the option. We chose Lao style, which was less sweet, and we all really enjoyed it. The shrimp tom kha soup was extremely flavorful and good, but a little too salty, so it was hard to finish the whole thing. The rest of the dishes we shared (green curry and pad see ew) were both cooked well and we have no complaints. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a Thai spot in the area.

Stopped in while "on the job"…read more What a nice surprise. The dining area was inviting and staff was so warm and welcoming. I am not a regular at Thai food so I asked Maria for her recommendation and with the both of our thoughts I decided on the Kow Pad Pineapple. What a nice surprise. Lightly spicy and very tasty. I also had them put shrimp in it. To bad I reside in Chicago because I would definitely make sisters a regular spot. But for now it will have to be a stop while I'm on the road working. Thanks guys great meal Chicago Bob

The heat is layered and intentional, and even the small detail of the hot pepper garden behind the restaurant adds to the sense that the kitchen genuinely cares about its craft. The only hesitation is the pricing, which trends noticeably high. Still, when the food carries this much flavor and character, it's easier to understand where the value comes from.

This spot is not much for ambience inside or outside but on the day of my visit they had brisk takeout and the dining room was packed...real quick. I'm sure a lot of folks go here for the Chinese menu items but I was there for the Lao goodies! They did not disappoint! We had the fried meat balls; a mixed app plate with chicken wings, Lao sausage, and beef jerky; lap beef; and a healthy serving of sticky rice (ok maybe we had 2 to sop up the lap beef). Flavors were on point. Medium spice had us excited and rolling at the same time as it got spicier throughout the meal for the lap...but it was so good! I can't wait to go back and try more! Service was friendly and attentive. Parking was easy since they have their own lot.

The two daughters took over the business from their parents who opened Vientiane in 2001. It's wonderful to see family owned businesses stay in the family! We even learned more about Laos culture with trivia :) We were offered wine, Lao beer, Thai tea, or iced coffee. I had a white wine and Thai tea. It was my first time to try Thai Tea and I loved it! It's sweet, but delicious. I enjoyed everything I tried! From the apps, I loved their spring roll with sweet chili sauce! Their tofu pad tai was to die for. I would order that for dinner any day! I chose chicken for my Pho and the flavor overall was delicious. For dessert, we got mango sticky rice which was so good! Overall, Vientiane is a great authentic local Laotian restaurant!

I have been to the other location on Perryville and that's a bigger location so I thought I would give the smaller location a try. Growing up as a Laotian American, the food is very similar growing up so I kind of compare every type of Southeast Asian cooking to my moms and other family members. I happen to order the crab rangoon and the Pad See Iew, which is stir fried thick long noodles in a soy sauce. I have to say the crab rangoons aren't that bad, I would order them again and the noodles.Next time I would try something I haven't had before. Overall, its a small location but it has good traditional Thai food which many people won't be able try unless you have friends that make you try it or you grew up with it. I would say give it a try and explore your taste buds. I would come back again and go outside my comfort zone.

We didn't wait too long to be seated - which was deceiving for the rest of our experience. We ordered a couple of apps, thai teas and entrees. The apps were forgettable with not a lot of flavor. The ratio of tea to cream left my friend disappointed. Overall the entrees were much better but flagging our waitstaff to order and for water refills was tiresome. There appeared to be one person taking orders and one person bussing. This was insufficient for a busy evening and we recognize that this happens but it didn't appear that this wasn't the norm based on the waitresses behavior. All in all this establishment may be better suited for a take out order when I'm visiting friends in the area vs dining in.
