The sauce had a hint of a spicy bite. My pho was some of the best I've had. It's all about that broth. Enough flavor to enhance everything else. Also order a hot green tea! Enough for four :) Excellent experience and food. Definitely check it out if you are in the area!!

I stopped by Roots in Johnson City and tried the rice noodles with egg rolls and pork for takeout…read morewhen they were about to close. The noodles were cooked perfectly--soft but not mushy--and the pork was flavorful and tender. Everything had a really nice balance of savory and fresh flavors. The egg rolls were crispy on the outside with a tasty filling that paired really well with the noodles. I wish there was more meat in the dish. I love the side of sauce that came with it. The atmosphere was relaxed and the staff were friendly.

My wife and I ordered from Pho Lao Kitchen Der for takeout. We are quite versed in Thai cuisine,…read morehave only become interested in Vietnamese cuisine in the past few years, but are completely ignorant of Lao food. The portion sizes here are huge! Here was our order: -Shrimp Salad (Summer) Rolls: 10/10...the rolls were twice the size of rolls you get at other Thai places for the same price. But with the peanut sauce, they were transcendental. That peanut sauce could be bottled and sold en masse. So so so good. -Papaya Salad: 7.5/10, very refreshing, but with a secret hit of spice on the back of the palate that wakes you up. Crisp, fresh, healthy. -Larb chicken: this was a first for me....to my unrefined palate, it tasted almost like ground chicken cooked with pho spices/herbs. I ended up drizzling some of the leftover peanut sauce on the chicken which was amazing. Again, lots of protein and vegetables, perfect for health-conscious folks. 9/10 -Pad Thai: this is my wife's safe order that she always uses as a litmus test for restaurants, and it did NOT disappoint! She said this was her favorite pad Thai EVER, and with drizzles of the extra peanut sauce and lime juice, this dish was truly elevated. 10/10. -Mango Sticky Rice: 100000000/10, my lord I don't know how I lived my life without this. It's reminiscent of peach cobbler in my opinion, but with mango. The sweetened rice isn't overly sweet, which allows the sharpness/sweetness of the mango to shine. The mango itself was perfectly ripe, whereas most mangos tend to be sickly sweet and mushy from overripening. All in all, this is our new favorite for Thai cuisine in Tri-Cities, and my introduction to Lao food was beautiful and filling. We will absolutely be back in the future, as I'd love to see how Lao pho differs from Vietnamese pho. Plus the mango sticky rice is etched into my mind permanently.

This place was generally busy so I couldn't be too upset either when I entered. There was no wait time with getting a seat and when you enter the building, you just see yourself and the server will come up to you, present you your menu and take your order. Prices on all these items were very fair for what they were. I ordered a spring roll and a spicy crab roll. Wait times were a bit long but it was well worth the wait. There are chopsticks that are next to you. Overall I did think it was a great experience and it was worth checking out. Plenty of vegan options to for those who are particular.

We headed over for a cozy dinner but were disappointed by the lack of indoor seating. The cashier had a bit of a strange confused yet also slightly irritated attitude. But she got our orders right so I cant complain much. We ordered two beef pho and shumai. The menu is a bit more "fusion-ey" than just thai and vietnamese. The interior was a very messy, the stores old furniture and boxes scattered about. Finally the food. It was lukewarm by the time we finally got to eat. Very delicious broth, meat was mostly yummy, LOT of fat pieces though. The noodles were... not enjoyable. And there were no bean sprouts! But for pho it makes the minimum mark. The shumai was also pretty good but cold. I like how the food was packaged separately, and the prices were reasonable, the pho bowl was $11. Overall 3 stars

So we glad we found it. They not only serve Thai food, but sushi as well. So that is a plus! However, three stars is due to poor service. The female was kinda rude when we requested less spicy because my dad has low tolerance. She barely came by to refill our water. She probably had a bad day, and we were the unlucky ones to receive her service.

She was apologetic and suggested we do Thai level 5. I was pretty sure that was the same spice level as last time but she promised they would get it right. We started off with some Spring Rolls and our food came out pretty quickly. My Basil Fried Rice was perfectly spicy this time; for me, perfectly spicy is tolerable in the beginning and after several bites you are uncomfortable in the spice level. On a Friday night it was mildly busy inside. They do a regular flow of takeout business so they stay busy. Our server was very attentive and check with me that my food was adequately spicy.
