Amazing food! Very authentic, great portions, and friendly service. It has a wonderful vibe, filled with decorative plants and nice music. I’m surprised it’s not packed on a Friday night – it should be with this amazing food! I will definitely be back!

Discovered this Laotian Thai place in Kearney Mesa / Convoy Street. Great service and excellent food. There’s a lot of options and want to try them all! Been there a few times already and will be back to try more.

Stumbled upon this Lao & Thai spot! What a gem! I’ve been looking for Khao Piak Sen for awhile! The hand pulled noodles and flavor are delicious! My partner got the Khao Soi which was also damn good! We’ll be back!

We got the most popular dishes to share among 4 people. All the dishes were good. We wanted to stay with Lao dishes vice Thai dishes.

My husband loves Thai food and glad that this restaurant was open during Father’s Day. We have not been here since the pandemic. We have always enjoyed our food and the food is still delicious. The menu had a variety of dishes and price is reasonable. This is one of the very few restaurants that serve mussaman curry which is my husband’s favorite. It is a casual restaurant. The staff were friendly and was fine having our son’s service animal. One of the staff even brought a bowl of water for our dog without us asking. This is very thoughtful!

Staff was immediately welcoming. Service is a casual, diner approach. Space is intimate. Good place to try some items you don’t always see in Thai restaurants. Boat Noodles were less noodles and lots of meat! Yay! A bit sweet for me but good. Presentation was an upgrade but would need to request all the sides for the dish which proved to be the same with the chicken noodle soup. The broth was pretty thick and had less meat. Good flavor. The papaya salad was a decent portion. It was pretty good and very spicy.

My partner and I have been coming here for about a year now. We love Thai food and that’s what originally brought us in, but we’ve been enjoying trying all the Laotian dishes! Everything we have tried has ranged from decent to excellent (there have been one or two things we didn’t care for, but it was much more about our personal tastes than quality of the dish). HIGHLY recommend their soups and curries – I particularly love the pumpkin curry.

We ordered the chicken pad thai, hot basil chicken, green curry with pork, and mixed vegetables with beef. Everything was super delicious and service was amazing! At the end of our meal, we were surprised with the mango sticky rice which was so good! We will be back again to try more of the menu.
