"Slowwww af service was frustrating. Crab cake was fine and green scallion mochi cake was super yummy. Got the equivalent of a Khao Soi (forget the Laotian name), chicken fell right off the bone, didn’t come with nearly enough toppings. Good but not worth a snobby reservation system."

"Bib Gourmand 2024 The flavors and heat of Southeast Asian are on full display at this Northeast DC eatery. Though the menu spans much of the country, Laos' menu-sporting a section devoted entirely to vegans-still manages to be original, offering ingredients that are rarely found in similar restaurants. It also promises-and delivers on-dishes marked "phet" (or spicy). Generous slices of sausage with savory herbs are served with crunchy green papaya, peanuts and fiery green chili; while the chef's signature papaya salad arrives with bright green beans, Laos pork loaf and a mellow fermented fish sauce. Don't miss the unique orm, a tender chicken-and-dill curry, imbued with Asian eggplant, cabbage, scallions and more green beans."
