We ordered for appetizer, a cup of egg flour soup, and the spring rolls. The egg flour soup had bits of carrots and corn. Was not to bad- can't really miss that soup. The spring rolls were just okay. For our mains, we ordered the orange chicken (comes with side of steam rice) and the Mongolian beef (also comes with a side of rice but we upgraded to the pork fried rice for $2.50). The Mongolian beef was not your normal Mongolian beef- if anything it was just beef and veggies(onion, zucchini, snap peas, carrots), I say skip the pork fried rice up charge because it was also a miss. There was barely any pork bits, and just tasted like soy sauced rice. They missed the mark on that for sure. The thing that saved our dinner was the orange chicken- came out great- and had a little kick.

The skewered chicken was my favorite item, while my husband liked the crab rangoon. The staff was bustling around bringing out fresh food and cleaning tables the entire time. We made sure to leave room for dessert, and again there were many pastry items as well as vanilla and chocolate soft serve ice cream. Small pieces meant we could try several treats, my favorite being the sesame ball with red bean paste filling, my husband loved the coconut macaroons, the cream puff was delightful, and the vanilla roll and chocolate cake were okay. The soft serve was tasty. In July 2025 the price was about $17/person, well worth it for the quality and variety offered. We would return.

We got the appetizer platter and some extra orders of spring rolls and crab rangoons. The crab puffs were obviously homemade and so recently fried that i had to wait a few seconds to let them cool. They were the perfect crunchy creamy combination and went very well with the sesame dipping sauce they came with. The spring rolls were also fantastic, thick rolls stiffed with cabbage and meat with curry spices. We also got a round of egg flower soup and tea for the table. The tea was some of the best jasmine tea i've had and was perfect to bump up the caffeine levels to continue our drive. For dinner we got the sautéed broccoli, kung pow chicken, beef chow mein, Szechuan shrimp, salt pepper squid and rice for the table. I'm not a huge fan of kung pow chicken usually because it doesn't have many veggies, but this was amazing. In with the chicken there were peppers, onions, corn, mushrooms, and peanuts! The sauce was spicy and super flavorful. This was by far my favorite dish. The Szechuan shrimp was sweet and tangy and the shrimp were coated in a shell of breading that was miraculously still crunchy while also soaking up the sauce to make the perfect bite. The broccoli was the simplest dish, but even though it was just steamed broccoli it had a wonderful umami rich sauce that highlighted the perfectly cooked vegetable. The salt and pepper squid was perfectly fried and crispy and super tender. It also came with a selection of blackened peppers and onions that went really well with the squid bites. The beef chow mein had perfectly tender beef bites with onions peppers and bean sprouts. The bean sprouts were well cooked and yet nice and crunchy. I couldn't find any noodles in the dish but the bean sprouts did the same job and I think the dish was better without. So good. This restaurant, aside from the food, was really clean and well run. Susie was very nice, and when we had finished eating we got to talk to her a little about how she had just opened and how she had moved out here from portland. I will be back to pendleton in a few weeks for the round up, and you can bet 100% that you can find me at Susie's!!!!

Decent food alongside decent service. The restaurant was clean and looked nice, the hostess or the woman at the front counter was super nice. Food took a little longer than normal but it was good food, so that didn't bother us too much. Over all enjoyable, but nothing jaw dropping. read more

Their pad kee mao is a standout--savory, wonderfully seasoned, and packed with vegetables that make every bite satisfying. It has the perfect balance of noodles, vegetables, and bold flavor, and they definitely don't skimp on the portions. The pad Thai is equally delicious, with a beautiful balance of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors. The noodles are nicely coated in sauce without being overwhelmed, and the vegetables add freshness and texture. Both dishes feel thoughtfully prepared and full of the authentic flavor that makes you want to come back and order them again. What makes Lawan's even better is how genuinely kind and welcoming the people are. Great food, generous servings, and friendly service make this a place worth supporting. Just plan ahead because they're closed on Mondays--but any other day, it's a wonderful choice for a flavorful, satisfying Thai meal!
