Ordered Laos to Your House on a Wednesday evening and received the meals packaged neatly by 9am on Friday morning. The packaging alone is stunning. The front picture pays homage to our home country of Laos and everything was packaged well and neatly. The back had a QR code for people to find the reheating instructions of each meal you received. Food: Laap Gai (Lao Chicken Salad with Herbs)- 5/5 Flavorful and delicious. Had the aroma and fragrance of all of the correct herbs in this dish. Tasted like my family's cooking. Mok Gai (Steamed Chicken and Herbs in Banana Leaves) with Cabbage- 5/5 All of the flavors worked perfectly with each other and I paired it with homemade sticky rice to make it an even more authentic meal. Meat Sampler (Beef Jerky and Lao Sausage) with Jasmine Rice- 5/5 The flavors were so yummy! They each had their own personal flavor profile and each one was amazing on its own. Jeow Bong (Lao Dipping Sauce)- 10/5 Yes, a 10/5! Loved every bit of this sauce and dipped the meats and sticky rice in it, put it on my Jasmine rice, and ate it with my cabbage. It was just the perfect accompaniment to everything I ordered! This is a definite must-have!! All in all, they have found a lifetime customer in me. For someone who is missing homemade Lao foods but can't get to it where you are or just need a break in cooking, give them a try! It's cheaper and tastier than DoorDash!! read more

LTYH pivoted awhile back to shipping. I previously ordered via Dwell Social - it was only available once every month or two -and gave them a five star review. The food is delivered via FedEx. (It's even better if you also have the FedEx zoo for precise tracking and delivery)Frozen but still 5 stars. You order online and can select from delivery dates available in your area. (Also available for some local delivery or pickup but I live too far). The box arrived on time. It was well packaged with insulation and freezer pack. My food was still frozen. I also sent some to friends in the Boston area and their box arrived perfect to. It's really nice. All the entres are individually packed and LABELED in Laos and English. There is a QR code to link to the heating instructions. For the monthly special (Deep Fried Fish in a tomato sauce) they provide written instruction instructions. I signed up for the monthly subscription which include 3 meals which you can select yourself or let them choose. It's been a while so I picked my favorites- the sweet jerky meal, the pork noodles and the monthly special. As always it is fabulous. More to good news is that there are a number of lower carb options. You can get the jerky and spicy sausages without rice. Or the protein (chicken or fish ) steamed in banana leaves. Or the classic minced chicken salad. Or the spicy red curry. I was told that they specifically selected items that would travel and freeze well. They hit the mark. Over time I Have worked my way through almost the entire menu. I could personally vouch for other items that freeze and reheat well- sometimes better in the air fryer. So fingers crossed that we see the egg rolls and yellow potato curry on the menu soon. Would DEFINITELY RECOMMEND read more

As a Laotian American who doesn't always have the time and energy to put the love and labor into cooking a Lao meal, this was the perfect solution to get my Lao food fix in a fraction of the time. I ordered the ready made meals and everything was perfectly packaged with ice packs in an insulated box; the food was still frozen upon arrival to Texas. The quality of the meals did not skimp, the flavors were authentic and I felt right at home as I enjoyed my meals. 5 stars for convenience, quality, service, authenticity and flavor. Thank you Laos to Your House! read more

Such excellent food! I look forward to the day when the food is delivered to me. The bento boxes are a great way to try a little of everything. I love all the food here from the sai qua (pork sausage), to the seen savanh (beef jerky), and the thum mak hoong (papaya salad). I would say that the salad is quite spicy, so if you can't take the heat, ask for mild. OMG! Don't forget about those eggrolls! So delicious! The nam khao is such a unique and flavorful dish for the summer. Do not miss this one! I've also had the curry and the kua mee (noodles) and both give me that home cooking vibe like I am eating my mom's food. Don't sleep on the special featured items! So good! You cannot go wrong here! read more

I was so excited to hear about Laos to Your House. About 15 years ago I had the wonderful opportunity to stay with a Thai family in a small village in the Isan region near the Laos-Thai border. I fell in love with sticky rice and the flavors of the homemade dishes are still vibrant in my memory. Not only does Laos to Your House come the closest to those fine food memories, the ease of pre-ordering and coming home on a Friday evening to a delicious homemade meal has made me a regular. highly recommend you take a trip via your tastebuds to the other side of the world. read more

It's not easy to find Lao cuisine in the Chicagoland area. You can count on one hand really how many Lao cuisine establishments there are and Laos to Your House should definitely be on your radar. Authentic. Affordable. Delicious. I had ordered the khao piak sen (Laotian chicken noodle soup) and the first bite had sent me into realm of nostalgia. Really hit me in my feels. Since the passing of my grandfather, I haven't really be able to have laotian food. I'm beyond glad I stumbled across this establishment. Cannot wait to try their other dishes on their menu and explore a part my culture through food. Definitely encourage you to give this small business a try. It's people like you who give a small businesses a chance to thrive in this diverse food ecosystem in Chicago. Don't knock it until you try it! read more

Delicious food and superior service!! I always receive a personalized card with every order.

I was super excited to see this restaurant available on DwellSocial in my suburbs. I used to live downtown and I miss the diverse food scene that was so accessible for me. We treid the LAOcuterie board that came with spicy sausage, brisket, chicken wings, beef jerky, spicy papaya salad, chicken laap, jeow, sticky rice, cucumber, pork rinds and cabbage. This was a great assortment of food for a really good price. My favorite was the beef jerky with jeow and the sticky rice. I can eat that nonstop. The spicy sausage was very herby and fragrant. The papaya salad was indeed very spicy, but I actually did not really like the flavor. It tasted a little bland and flat. I'm not sure if the flavor was off that day or that is how lao papaya salad tastes. I also did not really like the chicken laap. Same issue like the papaya salad, the flavor was kinda flat and the shredded chicken texture through me off. Loved all the different little accompaniments it came with. read more

I love this place! Being from California, I'm always looking for Lao/Southeast Asian food in Chicago. My favorites are the Lao sausage and sticky rice, mok ghai, nam khao, and kapoon. So many good things on the menu, though! I also love the community they build here and all of the different events and pop-ups they put on. Will definitely order again and again. read more

When I heard about a new Lao place opening up in Chicago, I knew I had to try them! Their food takes me back to memories of gatherings back home in San Diego when I was growing up. This is the closest thing to home! I enjoy their dishes and have become a regular patron! The only downside is that they're not open 7 days a week. Hint hint ;) read more

The food is phenomenal!! I ordered the LAOcuterie Board and Nam Khao and everything was so tasty and fresh. I had a couple of special requests that were handled with lots of finesse.

This place is legit. I work nearby and it's become a welcome treat for me to pickup on Fridays after a long week. I've tried several items in the menu so far - the bento box is a good way to sample a variety of Lao dishes, and the Nam Khao Moo is really tasty. This is the kind of food you're not going to find in most parts of the city and certainly not outside the city. My favorite thing on the menu so far is the Jeow Bong sauce- I've never tasted anything quite like it. I even tried to make my own and that..did not go well. Maybe I should just leave this one to the masters. The owners are really friendly and responsive too, and they've got a pretty great rewards program. Highly recommend checking out Laos to your House. read more

Food was delicious and authentic. We ordered for curbside pick up and service was extremely quick & easy. I ordered the LAOcuterie Board. This was the perfect amount of food for 2 and had a good mixture of food options to tried. My favorite was the jerky as it was thin and flavorful. read more

It was delicious. Ordering through DwellSocial was seamless. My brother & I had the charcuterie & street food. The containers were like the sustainable kind & both fit right into the airfryer/oven for reheating. The food were fresh, taste unique with lemongrass, fish sauce, etc., overall delicious. We like the beef eggrolls, beef jerky, grilled chicken wings, sausage, papaya salad (spicy hot!), crispy rice with fermented pork, chicken laap, caramelized noodles, etc. I think it's still different from thai food. Some people say it's similar. Ample portions with reasonable prices. The only sad thing was they forgot about my Laotian flower cookies that were supposed to be included in the street food. Anyway, next time I'll probably try the curry dishes. This is a foodie's delight! read more

Food is delicious! The flash frozen meals reheat beautifully and are a staple in our house. yum!

Amazing experience overall. The food is frozen so if you aren't ready to eat yet just pop it in the freezer. I was surprised by the reusable temperature safe bag it came in that you can keep. The food was very fresh. I will be a repeating customer! read more

The food was absolutely fantastic !!!! The delivery was within the window that they stated. Such amazing flavors. They need to open a restaurant in my town. So I can eat there often. It even came with a thank you card such a nice touch. I ordered the street food sampler and a bento box with the savory Jerky. That was great!!! I had a side order of pork belly spring rolls too those were good too. Really everything was beyond good. It was so delicious! read more

I ordered the taste of laos to give this place a try. Let me preface this by saying I used to live in Thailand and have been to Laos many times. So I may have a bit higher standards than someone who has never tried Laotian food. If you've never had it, and you don't live in the city, by all means this is a decent introduction to the cuisine, especially if you can't eat very strong or spicy food. But living here in the city of Chicago, I have had a lot better and more authentic Larb and papaya salad at the Thai restaurants or even the Thai market here. The papaya salad was only papaya and a couple of tomatoes, so basic; usually there are other ingredients such as thai eggplants and long beans to give it more texture and taste. The flavor profiles here were very much on the mild side for me. I also found it to be very pricey for what you get. My partner who is Thai from the northeast (near Laos) was also disappointed. The one thing that we did enjoy was the sausage, though even that could have been more spicy and flavorful like what we have had in other places (or at least give some pieces of garlic and chili on the side as they do in Laos). I want to support businesses like this so feel bad leaving a negative review, but for the price point we expected more flavor and fresh ingredients. read more

Normally the only place I could get Lao food was a home cooked meal by family. So it was a breath of fresh air to see a Lao restaurant open locally and especially in Chicago!! I cant say enough about Stacy and Byron who are genuinely humble people who want people to experience Lao food and culture. The food is so good and flavorful. Every bite makes me feel like Im having a home cooked meal. Cant wait to order again and support!! read more

Oh my goodness, so delicious! We visited Laos in 2019 and with no Lao restaurants in Chicago, I was excited to learn about them. I ordered through Dwell Social because I now live in the suburbs (after living in the city for 20 years), and it was so wonderful to get city-quality food delivered to me. We ordered the Chicken Laap, Kua Mee (caramalized rice noodles), Sai Oua (sausage), Seen Savanh (beef jerky) and the beef egg rolls. We loved every dish, but I especially loved the beef jerky and chicken laap. It really brought us back to our wonderful time in Laos (which is the most beautiful country with amazing food and lovely people). I can't wait until the next time they deliver to my area to try more dishes. read more
