Taurus Ox

"Fusion Lao restaurant. Great SE Asian flavors. We love their ox (smash) burger. Its so popular, they had to open a separate joint dedicated to this burger (see Ox burger)!"

"When Taurus Ox opened in 2019, Laotian cuisine was a rarity in Seattle, so thank owners Khampaeng Panyathong and Jenessa Sneva for introducing the city to dishes like thom khem (caramelized pork belly) and chicken laap (a salad with minced chicken). Don’t miss the Lao pork sausage, fragrant with lemongrass and lime leaf, or the jaew, a tomato-y, somewhat spicy sauce comparable to salsa or chutney. For another rare treat, pair it with a locally made sato, or Laotian rice wine, from Village Ghost. Best for: A casual lunch or dinner. "

"The cuisine of Laos takes center stage at Capitol Hill’s Taurus Ox thanks to three chefs, Sydney Clark, Khampaeng Panyathong, and Jenessa Sneva, with strong Seattle dining pedigrees. The tiny counter-service shop recently upgraded to this full-service home, where dishes such as thom khem and chicken laap continue to benefit from local produce and a whole-animal approach to butchery. Don’t miss the Lao pork sausage, fragrant with lemongrass and lime leaf, or one of the city’s best patties, a smash burger made with pork jowl bacon and jaew tomato sauce. (This burger became so popular the team opened a burger-only place, Ox Burger.) For another rare treat, pair it with a locally made sato, or Laotian rice wine, from Village Ghost."

"Lao burger was bomb, I even got it with the impossible patty, amazing. The fries were thicker than I like (maybe like crinkle cut without crinkles) but the seasoning on them was great"

"Get the renowned Lao Burger or go with a classic with American cheese and don’t miss the phenomenal soft ice cream and flavors like strawberry, basil or Vietnamese coffee. "
