I had a great experience at Sticky Rice Restaurant. The first thing I noticed was how nice, open, and inviting the restaurant felt. It has a bright, welcoming atmosphere. The food tasted authentic, and several dishes reminded me of a home-cooked meal--fresh, comforting, and full of flavor. My favorites were the drunken noodles, which had the perfect balance of savory and spicy, the crispy pork belly with its crunchy skin and the papaya salad, which was fresh, vibrant, and packed with flavor. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu! read more

Mango salad, lao sausage, & raw beef laap. I can't get over how good the food is here! It's definitely a slept on spot! The salad was good, the sausage was great, the laap was even better! 3 for 3 hit in my opinion. Salad wasn't over powering with flavor, you get the sweetness the umami the spice all evenly. Sausage was cooked really well, hot & moist. Not dry like most places & that's Jeow som that comes on the side, OMG BEST JEOW SOM FROM A RESTAURANT IN MH OPIONION. The laap was my favorite dish! Lightly bitter, medium rare, medium spice. Well balanced dish. Exactly what I asked for is exactly how it came out. Although it is a bit warm dining in, the place is clean, open, and inviting. We're welcomed with greetings and seated right away. Service is always good when dining in! Give em a try! read more

Unfortunately, I have to give a low rating based off the food alone. One extra star because the server was very nice and polite. We came here to try out the AYCE hot pot. We didn't realize that it raised in price and it is now $38 per person for dinner. A bit steep, but we hoped the food would make up for it. Yet, it was very disappointing and kept getting worse. I think we need to keep in mind that this is not a true AYCE hot pot location. They have a generous menu for Laos/Thai food but with an option for hotpot. The meats were very thick, tough, and basic. The broth was decent but nothing extraordinary to the point of yearning for more. We wish they had more options for toppings, but it was pretty limited. We would not go back for the hot pot but for the other foods that they have to offer. read more

Food was so good I got too excited to eat before taking pictures. The rib skewers: BOMB. Pork belly was delicious and crispy. Papaya salad was ON POINT. My boyfriend said the pork fried rice was the best he's ever had. Amazing and authentic food. The service was also great-Kim was so helpful and friendly. I definitely will be coming back! read more

The restaurant wasn't busy and the service was okay. Server never came to check on us. The only time was when he dropped the dish off to us - which came one by one - but he complimented on the dish and didn't ask us if we needed anything. But he was nice if anything. All the food we ordered were okay but nothing worth going back to eat. Num Nuong Rolls had tough wrappers. Although a good portion, the garlic shrimps were not crunchy at all and were mushy instead. read more

This is was so bad. Like all around horrible experience lol.First it was a 50 minute wait instead of a 25 minute wait. The chicken was straight up chicken WING the pictures don't show that. The spare rib also is completely different than the picture it has mostly bone and fat and it has bell peppers. It has good and bad bits at the same time? The spring rolls were awfulll they weren't even fully closed mostly fallling apart and they had what i think was a giant piece of onion in the middle , idk but gross, and random bits of basil wasn't fun to chew. And the peanut sauce i totally feel like it was just straight peanut butter. But the sticky rice was good so i'll give them that. read more

Food was pretty good, definitely a mom & pop spot. Service was okay for family own small business. Good vibes. Food had PLENTY of salt, only got to try a little of the skewers since they ran out of full order so they did give us what they had. Service was slow and food came out one by one instead of all together. They did forget a few of our orders so we ended up cancelling it. Unfortunately forgot to take any pictures. read more

The foods ok, but service is super super slow. Waiting 1 hrs is crazy...they need to have a stronger cook, someone to welcome the customer, someone to run the kitchen. read more

I love the hot pot, spicy beef is my fav the unlimited meat and sides are so good I have been like 4times now can't wait to go back, the egg rolls and spring rolls are so good definitely a 10/10 read more

My wife and I got here around 5:35pm on a Friday night. There were no customers at all. When we entered, no one greeted us until we started talking amongst each other. A worker, who was sitting down at the time, got up and told us we can sit wherever we wanted to. There were tables and a few booths. We chose to sit at the booth. They're a bit low and far from the table so it wasn't as comfortable. The waiter came and gave us our menus then asked if we wanted water. Of course we said yes. He brought our water and then told us to get his attention when we were ready to order. Once we've decided on what to order, I had to get up and go tell him we were ready. We ordered the shrimp spring rolls, the pork skewers, a papaya salad, PadSeeEw beef, and sticky rice. Shrimp Spring Rolls- 3/5 Came with two different sauces. 1/5 The peanut sauce was very thick and sweet. 4/5 The sweet and spicy sauce. For the spring rolls, not sure if this a new thing but there was pickled daikons, not a fan. 5/5 for the proportion ratio of shrimp to stuffing. Papaya Salad 3.5/5 The papaya salad was good and flavorful. It was just a tad bit salty. Pork Skewers- 3.5/5 Could've been 5/5 but the meat portion was very small and had too much veggies. Beef PadSeeEw - 2/5 Needs a bit of work. The dish looked good and smelled good but the flavors weren't there. It was too sweet. Not sure where the sourness came from but something was sour in the dish. read more

Me & my little family loves eating here! Authentic Lao food !! Tastes like home. I would highly recommend ordering the pho & the Kao piak!

this review is for a doordash order - which i left a review there too but i felt yelp gets more exposure so it needed to be on here too. i think i gaslit myself into thinking the order wasn't that bad but thinking back i think i was just extra hungry so any food would have sufficed lol anyways, i ordered the Garlic Shrimp Stir Fry and P-Pork Belly and Sticky Rice - the flavor of the shrimp was delicious, however, the protein to rice ratio was absolutely criminal lol. 8 pieces of shrimp with what seemed to be a pound of rice and then maybe 10 pieces of pork belly with again, another pound of rice. i was able to eat both proteins with only one of the rice servings and still had rice leftover. if adding more protein to the portion isn't an option, i would strongly recommend to at least put less rice (maybe half the current portion) so it doesn't look as bad i know some places skimp out with delivery orders so i'm not sure if the serving sizes are the same in person but i don't really feel inclined to find out read more

Sticky Rice - pork belly & sticky rice - Noodles Near Me - Fresno, California

We were visiting Fresno from Bakersfield, pulled into the parking lot and saw a Lao restaurant. Decided to give it a try for lunch, since I don't think we have any Lao restaurants in our area, and I don't really see them all that often elsewhere either. We ordered the garlic shrimp, beef larb, and spring rolls. Everything was flavorful, well-prepared, and fresh. It's a family-owned and operated place. I unfortunately forgot the guys' name, but our server was a son of the owners and grandson of the chef. We had a nice conversation and he also gave us some helpful advice regarding Lao cuisine :) Definitely a place we'd come back to when we're in the area again. read more

Pho 3/10 Although the broth was good, the noodles were extremely soggy and there was a piece of brown metal wire on top. I thought it was a stem from the basil leaves. He told me not to bring it up Pork Pad Kaprow 7.5/10 Needs more basil Red Curry 6/10 It was yellow curry instead, it was good. Sticky Rice 10/10 Good portion, can't go wrong with them Be prepared, it's hot inside All entrees comes with sticky rice/steam rice Portions are small, enough for 1. Not shareable read more

amazing traditional lao food that does taste like home. the customer service is nice. ordered take out and got their raw beef larp, bitter intestine soup, tham papaya, and fried shrimp. so impressed by the quality of the dishes, as some of them are very meticulous to make- it's surprising someone actually sells it. would recommend if you're wanting to try/or needing your fix of authentic lao food! read more

All you can eat hotpot! All you can eat bbq! What more can you ask for!? Place is clean and love the set up. Also ordered beef laab to go. It was fire! Definitely coming back to get more and more things. read more

Love the food and service. Everything is prepared fresh! The ambiance was nice! Enjoyable experience overall.

While the waitress was very friendly and sweet, the food was not good. Did the hot pot lunch for $28- meat was tough and chewy and the broth very bland. Wont be returning for hot pot but the rest of the menu looked good. read more

Food is on point, service is fast, and the ambiance is good. The food is delicious, and super fast, people there are helpful and friendly

We dine in for all you can eat hotpot. Our server Nick did an amazing job. I ordered laab to go and that was good. Loved the thum yum flavor for hotpot. Recommend trying and supporting small businesses. read more

The service was good and the food is also good. I'll be coming back again soon.The place was clean and tidy

This has to be the worst food I ate. I ordered two dishes and both had completely no flavor like bland. Portion was not worth the price. So very disappointed. Would have been better off eating pho next store... read more

Was greeted by a polite young man, ordered sticky rice , chicken and egg rolls. All bomb af! Thank you will def return :)

All you can eat hot pot, more like all you can wait. We went during the weekend with my family, a fairly big party, about 9 people. Customer Service needs work. The guys seemed awfully annoyed having to constantly serve us. Quite honestly just take out all you can eat hot pot off the menu. If you can't service your tables. Also not to mention they were very uncoordinated and lacked communication. Not to mention I had to ask our server 6 TIMES for him to bring my little brother his THAI MILK TEA. I will not be coming back, nor would I recommend anyone. read more

Food is very well seasoned, reminds me of my grandmas cooking. Service is good, very friendly people. The setting of the restaurant is very nice and cute, i like the inside, they also have a very nice outside patio. read more
