Flavorful food similar to Thai food but with more pungent smell and taste. Our server was very friendly and helpful with recommended dishes. If you're looking for something different in orange county this is the place to go to.

We loved their sausages at friends' parties a few of times so we always wanted to dine at the restaurant. We finally went lastnight and here are our verdicts:
1. Hoi Jor - crispy fried crab dumplings: 5/5 - very good. The flavors and texture were spot on.
2. Crispy Pork belly: 4/5 - pretty good and different for my experience. I dont think it is all pork belly, more like pork shoulder strips. I am not sure how it is served in Laos but I thought it should be served with sticky rice or similar... we ate them just like snacks and could get tired. The jeo som sauce was delicious.
3. Larb ribeye salad: 4/5 - very good. The steak was cooked perfectly for medium rare but could use a really grilled smoky flavor.
4. Tom soap pork ribs soup: 5/5 - delicious. The flavors and taste were spot on for me. The ribs were well seasoned and tender, and well fat trimmed. The soup was not greasy.
5. Khao soi: 3.5/5 - good and light, very coconuty but not complex like Manaao's or even mine. Loved the chewy egg noodles and generous chicken.
6. Stir-fried Laos Steak: 3/5 - ok. It was bland, nothing special about it. At least, the chef didn't use any baking soda to make the meat spongy...
7. Pandan sticky rice mango: 4/5 - pretty good but can use extra coconut sauce over the rice.
8. Sticky rice: 2/5 - abit firm instead of soft for my expectation.
Service: The main server was swamped so it was pretty slow. However, we appreciated his honest suggestions, not trying to up-sell us .
We definitely will come back to try other dishes.
