I really don't like giving 5 stars from one visit. I like to give the 5 stars after a few visits, to ensure there is consistency in all the things, but I couldn't help it. This restaurant is off of Mitchell, which is a busy street, so it is easy to get to. It is part of a large shopping center so lots of parking. The restaurant itself it pretty spacious and has lot of seating. Could very well accommodate a larger group. We were greeted and seated right away. The lady that seated us was very pleasant and met us at the table with iced water and our menus. We ordered: 1. Thai teas: refreshing and delicious. 2. House Special: came with fried shrimp, fried broccoli, Laos sausage, fried chicken, beef jerky and fried egg roll. All fried to perfection and a great plate to purchase to appease most palates. 3. Large sticky rice: which is a must! 4. Laos papaya salad (mild): this comes with 6 Thai chilies and was perfect heat. It comes with a side of fresh cabbage. It was all the things we needed the salad to be. The sauce was dark in color, salty and that danky goodness! 5. Laos sausage: ordered this on accident because I didn't realize there was some sausage that came on the house special platter which was fine because we knew we were taking stuff home. 6. Crispy pork belly: marinated perfectly and fried to perfection. Dipping sauce complimented it well. So much food and I believe the bill came in under $90. A good amount of food, delicious and filling. Glad we stumbled upon this place and don't think it will be our last visit! read more

Everything was overcooked Chicken wings were disgusting. They were hard and freezer burned. The server didn't interact with us. Just a really weird experience that was memorable for all the wrong reasons. This restaurant is clean, though, in the surroundings are pleasant. read more

This place has been a favorite since saibadee days. One of my favorite dish has to be radna and papaya salad. The papaya salad is probably the best ever, as in, anywhere I go, I would compare to here. And I keep a few of their papaya salad sauce in my fridge! I used to order their Thai boat noodle bowl but as of late the flavor just be hitting different. So I've switched back to just ordering radna. However, I've tried the yum nua and it was delicious! That will definitely become a regular on future visits. The service is good. They constantly checked on us and gave us updates on when the food is coming out. The atmosphere has been less loud. It doesn't seem to be as busy as a few years back. Perhaps due to other Asian restaurants opening near by. Either way, will always eat here when it comes to Thai/Lao food. read more

Such a great local, family-owned Laotian spot! The restaurant is small, cute, and clean, and the food is absolutely delicious and tastes truly authentic. Service was friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. So happy to have a spot like this in the neighborhood -- definitely worth supporting and coming back to! read more

Ceres-We used to order from this place during Covid (2020). I've never been inside the restaurant until now! Super cute and very clean. I tried their beef jerky and it was outstanding!! Really different, but chewy, and tasty. I stuck with something I know and love...Chow Mein. Yes, I know, kind of boring but it's what I was craving. It did not disappoint. Savory, with a hint of kick along with plenty of veggies and chicken. While I am visiting, here in California, I need to get all of the good food that I can before I head back to Orlando. I definitely recommend this cute little spot. read more

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!! I found not one but TWO hairs in my plate of food and they refused to re make it.

Sticky Rice in Ceres is amazing! The Thai iced tea was absolutely delicious, perfectly sweet and refreshing. The pad thai was great, full of flavor and cooked just right, but the green curry was truly to die for. Rich, aromatic, and easily one of the best I've had. Everything was fresh and satisfying. Highly recommend and will definitely be back! read more

I was craving something fresh and lighter over rice, stoped at Sticky Rive for the first time, and was impressed. I had garlic pad Thai with pork. The veggies were super fresh, the pork pieces were big and the sauce was lighter and tasty. The service was quick and polite, the restaurant was clean and simple. I thought it was delicious, a great value, and it was quick. Definitely will be getting lunch again from here. read more

The food is so good here! I only ever get one dish which is the pad see ew but it is so good! So good that I was ordering it like every week for a couple months straight and I got tired of it lol I definitely should go back and try more things though. The dish I usually would get comes with noodles and veggies and chicken and you can choose different spice levels I usually got the spiciest because I love spicy food but be aware because it is supeeer spicy. I would say medium or light spicy is perfect for someone who doesn't want a lot of spice. All in all it's very clean inside although I usually take my food to go. The service always seems friendly when I've gone so that's good too. No complaints from me about this place it's a solid Thai restaurant. read more

Service was great! Food was amazing! Will definitely return. My Granddaughter suggested it!

OMG So GOOD!!! I ordered the veggie chow mein and it was so so tasty. The sauce was perfection, not too sweet, not salty. Veggies were perfect. They use the skinny noodles! Noodles were slightly undercooked but that is how I like it. Fantastic service, very sweet server. Easy parking in front. Best chow mein in the Central Valley!!! read more

Lady in the front where you pick up orders is a liar and very rude. Went to pick up grubhub order for a customer and they flat out handed the order to someone else. Confirmed with grubhub that no one else was assigned this order. I asked the lady to look who was the driver and her tablet and she stated they didn't have that access. Which is lies. Called grubhub right in front of her and poof she disappeared. No where to be found. Very pleasant service, NOT read more

The food here was really yummy. I've had their Mango sticky rice, Basil wings, fried meatballs & pho. All of which was delicious! Service is great. It takes a bit longer, but the staff has always been kind enough to give us a heads up about wait times. read more

The food here is always so good but unfortunately we will not be returning again until summer! it is 49° out and I'm pretty sure they have the air conditioning turned on! It is uncomfortably cold and we are so miserable sitting in the dining area! read more

Best Thai restaurant in stanislaus county! Love this place! So many great options for food. The traditional Thai menu options are very good and I personally love the Lao egg roll with the peanut sauce on the side... always ask for a second side of peanut sauce for a proper ratio of sauce in every bite! Also love the Thai Spicy Basil wings too. Delightful and amazingly fun to snack on with the Lao egg rolls to start. Love the pad Thai and curry choices are all equally delicious so can't go wrong with any combination of colors or meats! Watch the heat level though... I rarely go above the medium or you're hating it ! Wait staff is friendly and fast. The music is odd but will crack you up with some of the popular stuff that is on the video screen. Once you have an opportunity to try this special place you'll fall in love with them as I have and will keep coming back for that Thai fix! read more

My dad & I were craving some Thai & decided to stop at this Restaurant & I will definitely be going back to try more options overall, great service, clean yummy food with various options to choose from (reasonable prices) worth the stop :-) read more

I ordered online through door dash. They didn't give the garnishes the meat for the pho wasn't given paid almost $40 for just a large pho. wasn't worth the money called to try and correct it and the lady was telling me that she will only give the garnishes after paying $4.85 for extra beef read more

I really don't like to speak bad about restaurants. But I was really looking forward to some authentic Thai food. This place was not it. In fact the Papaya salad smelled like cow manure. We ordered red curry, drunken noodles, basil fried rice all of which were very disappointing. Noodles mushy. And flavor is very off. We definitely will not be back. I cannot recommend this place. Hoping I do not get sick actually :( read more

Sticky Rice Restaurant - Lunch special crying tiger with papaya salad and Thai ice tea! - Laotian Near Me - Ceres, California

What's not to like about Thai food done perfectly? Perfectly, I say. Excellent food. Superior service. Excellent prices. Short wait times. Immaculately clean. Yes, that's true! The owner always comes out and greets us. Very nice and hard-working individual. I've been coming here since they opened -- with one temporary closure for renovation until I moved out of state. Coming back here was a delight! The Chicken Satay is perfect I'm a fan of their green and yellow curry dishes, usually with chicken... but the beef is exceptional as well. Their curry sauces are so good, I'd swim in them. Maybe have naughty dreams about it, too. My absolute favorite there is Pad Krapau, made with chicken, and I always ask for "authentic Thai hot." Got that? Not for the faint of heart.. My next closest favorites are the Kung Pao Chicken. Next fav, Pad Asparagus. Recall that term? Authentic Thai hot. If you like your food spicy, ask your server for "authentic Thai hot" -- and they'll usually confirm that's what you want and expect. I guess there's even degree of spiciness beyond that, which should be called... well, never mind: I don't want to be kicked off of Yelp for not having any filters. Thing is, Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese food are usually served American bland... no flavor, no character, no spicy heat. Bring the heat. So as long as not too many people start coming here, the wait times for seating will be very good -- although we have waited some time for a table now and then. This is the place you'll want to go for Thai or Laotian food. read more

Spicy is actually spicy! Good service, although we were made to sit at a spot that was really hot when we wanted to sit where there were more chairs. It wasn't busy, anyway- food is authentic and good service overall. Can get my Thai fix here! read more

Sticky Rice Restaurant - Neau Nam Tok (Crying Tiger) - Laotian Near Me - Ceres, California

Food is all amazing! If you have a low tolerance for heat, make sure you let them know because it is quite spicy. I recommend their pork belly,Laos papaya salad and their garlic fried chicken. The waitress was very knowledgeable. She didn't even have to write down my order and I was surprised there was no mistakes. The restaurant itself is quite spacious and clean. Will come back again if I have cravings, they are my go to when it comes to authentic Laos, Thai foods. read more

The place is so cold, I can never enjoy the experience without getting a stiff back. I like the Kapoon but too much veggies and topping and very little noodles. I love pad Thai but i did not like it from this location. Sauce is weird. Place looked cleaned though. read more

Ordered takeout today. We've been coming here for years, but unfortunately the prices are finally to the point that we cannot afford to come back. Radna was $18 now! Every time we go the prices keep going up and up. My friend asked for mild but his dish was way too spicy. We've never had an issue with mild being spicy. We do enjoy the food, but will no longer do so with the high prices. read more

This place was great. We ordered take out and got the following: Mongolian beef: 10/10 and all I will be ordering moving forward. It was fantastic. Eggrolls: 6/10, a little too thick and I believe had mushrooms (not a fan in the eggrolls) Pad Thai: 7/10. We got two orders of this, no spice and spicy. No spice lacked flavor (probably my fault for getting no spice), and the spicy was good. read more

Sticky Rice Restaurant - Orange Chicken - Laotian Near Me - Ceres, California

Was in the area and looked up some food to eat. I was surprised to see a good rated Lao/Thai food place (no offense to anyone here, I just literally had no idea). We got seated right away and as I was looking through the menu, I saw a Lao-style fried rice. I've had Thai fried rice, Hawaiian, Korean, Chinese, Japanese, etc. so I just had to try a new kind. I'm glad I did because it was definitely unique. Some of the rice was fried crispy so the texture was interesting. My only gripe is that there was too much cilantro, but I generally don't like cilantro so for anyone else it might be just right. The spring rolls were great! Never had such a nice looking piece of lettuce in a spring roll in my life. The shrimp tasted good and not gamey or over powering. Solid Definitely check this place out if you're coming from the Bay Area, definitely keep coming to this restaurant if you're from the area. read more

Get the Hot and Sour Soup. One order will fill 4 small cups. It is about $18. It seems like a lot of $$ but it is delicious. I ordered four additional entrees. Pad Kee Mao with chicken was great. The chicken was not dry and the noodles were not stuck together like in other places. Pad Se-eew is good too according to the person who ordered it. Mongolia is delicious. And finally, pad eggplant with tofu did not disappoint. All entrees were medium spicy which is spicy. All of this for about $85. One thing to know is that there is a small service fee to use a plastic card. I did appreciate that they offered utensils, hot sauce, and soy sauce. Sometimes you need it and forget to ask. We did not need it, but just another positive note. I was pleasantly surprised at this little strip mall restaurant. read more
