    Roti + Mekong wings
    Justine H.

    So happy to have Lao'd District in Sugar Land. SL is notorious for getting half-baked restaurants with shoddy food/service. Lao'd has a great reputation, some excellent food, and very kind staff. You can either order from a server or your phone using the QR code on your table. If it's your first time, I would go with a server so they can help guide your order. We wanted wings, but they have 3 kinds so they helped us decide on the Mekong wings. These are similar to salt and pepper wings at a Viet/chinese restaurant. I wish they were a bit saltier but they were tasty. Keep in mind, even though their wings say 3 pieces, each piece is the flat and drumette connected, so it's like 6 wings. We also ordered the roti and curry sauce. The roti was a little dense for my liking, but okay. My husband got the crying tiger and I got the beef laab... oh my word, I loved them both. We ordered a side of their lime sauce for the crying tiger, and that helped to balance the sweetness. My beef laab was very similar to Thai nam tok but a little less sweet... I will never order nam tok at another restaurant again. The beef laab was perfect. The one thing I don't recommend is the mango sticky rice. The rice was just the sticky rice they serve with savory dishes. It didn't have much coconut sauce, and the mango was not very sweet. I'm so excited to go back and try the rest of the menu. Hope they stick around for the long run!

    A new Lao and Thai restaurant in Sugar Land. Our party of four shared several dishes for lunch. We ordered roti, Lao sausage, Thai basil pork belly, Druken noodles, Thai basil sticky fried rice, and pork belly stew (Mama's Stew). Every dish was delicious except for one. The pork belly stew was kind of bland and there was not much pork belly. However there were plenty of mushrooms in the stew. Table service was ok, not as attentive as we like. Since the restaurant only been opened for four days, we gave it some slack. Overall, we enjoyed the foods and like to return to explore the menu.

    This is a hidden gem. I noticed that there wasn't a lot of reviews or pictures of food. But this Pad See Ew was absolutely delicious.

    This is one of my favorite Thai restaurants near my home! What really caught my attention is that…read moreit combines a Thai restaurant and a small Thai grocery market all in one, which I thought was such a cool concept. The dining area is pretty small, with around 10 tables, but it was surprisingly busy with so many people coming in to eat. It gave me that hidden-gem kind of feeling, like a local spot that people know is really good. The food was honestly delicious and tasted quite authentic compared to other Thai restaurants I've tried. Everything was flavorful and well-seasoned, and our food came out surprisingly fast. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming. Definitely a little hidden gem that I'm happy to have found near my home. I'll definitely be coming back!

    The service is great and fairly fast. Definitely a Thai street food place. I loved how flavorful…read morewas everything and they gave really good recommendations. I wouldn't necessarily sit down here but if you want to you can. More of a grocery store than sit down restaurant. Khao soi gai: 7/10 This was so flavorful and delicious but definitely should have opted for the chicken instead of the soft shell crab I wasn't really a fan of the crab. Love the flavors and textures though. Definitely want to try with chicken and I recommend getting some rice on the side. Pad mama: 9/10 This had a really yummy vibrant flavor with a good amount of protein and leafy greens. Could be spicier I think the just gave us a random spice level. Overall really yummy and good portion for the prices but would love to retry with more spice in the dishes.

Even with the self ordering the employees were still attentive and interactive to make sure you get what you needed. Food was good and well priced too! ** steak tiger cry - 4.5/5 Steak was soooo good especially with the crack sauce. The steam rice was amazing with this and made well. (I judge places based off their jasmine rice as some taste cheap) I wished there was an option to choose sticky rice with this instead but maybe I could have asked. ** crispy chicken skins - 4/5 The crispy chicken skins were really good and came with the sticky rice which I think it's best side with since you can grab a bit of rice and skin to dip in the sauce and nom. It was good but I'm not sure if i'd get it again unless I'm really craving for it but I think there's better on their menu. ** papaya salad - 4.5/5 Love love love the papaya salad and all the veggies they chose with it. It's all the veggies I mainly want in my papaya salad. The only thing I would like is that if they made it spicier. I did get the highest spice but it was not spicy enough for me. The papaya salad is a must for a side with the main dishes.

    The Good, Bad and the Tasty…read more Service was good. I was greeted as I walked in and seated at a table. Service brought water, plates and utensils. Service was friendly and answered all my questions. Note: When you sit down scan the QR code on the table to view the menu, order and pay. We decided to order: MEKONG CALAMARI 10/10 Fresh Squid, battered and fried in our famous Mekong in-house seasoning. Tossed in garlic, onions and fried basil. Crispy outside and tender inside. Seasonings were on point very flavorful. THAI MORNING GLORY (SPINACH) 8/10 Stir Fried fresh morning glory (water spinach), seasoned with garlic, chillies, soy sauce and delicious seasonings. Topped with fried garlic. Tender greens and nicely flavored. STICKY BASIL FRIED RICE 9/10 To me sticky rice is comfort food... chewy rice that feels like it will stick to your ribs. It's mixed with savory morsels of pork belly and asian sausage. Toss in a house made sauce. STEAK TIGER CRY 9/10 Marinated sous vide picanha cut steak, sliced and served with our sweet, savory lime sauce. Some pieces of meat slightly overcooked but all pieces were tender and flavorful. When the meat was paired with the savory lime sauce it kicked up the flavor to another level. Casual dining good for family, friends and dates On a busy day... parking is bad. There are limited spaces right in front of the strip center. There is an adjacent parking garage but on a super busy day that can also be a challenge.

    Alright so this place was a huge disappointment. Let's start with the food…read more Truffle Fries (1/5) - oily, very little truffle taste Eggrolls (4/5) - actually not too bad Passion Dragonfruit Lemonade (5/5) - very good, tasty & refreshing Queens Scallops (0/5) - lol these were sooo bad, like the taste of the scallops, if there was even any, left the building before it was served to us. I think they may have been fake scallops. Godly Fried Rice (1/5) - nothing godly about it, very little seasoning and chewy beef. I had to pour the sauce from the egg rolls onto this just to get a little taste in it. The service was young kids who didnt seem to care much about their customers. Maybe its management or just a vibe I dont know, but we had to go back once or twice to them for putting down our order cause they left our table too early when we were still ordering. And to top it all off, a baby cockroach was on the wall just staring at us. Do not go here unless you are getting a lobster dish as I would hope that a place called drunken lobster can at least get that right.

    We saw and killed a cockroach that was on the wall next to where we were sitting. Service is kind…read moreof weird.
