    DoorDash: Pork grinds, papaya, fried rice, steak, green thai tea.
    Charro T.

    DoorDash: Pork grinds, papaya, fried rice, steak, green thai tea. Definitely will be ordering again and making it to dine in. This will be in my rotation of restaurants I will be supporting. More Lao restaurant please! No watering down our flavors.

    Laos Papaya Salad
    Kristina T.

    Only ordered the papaya salad here and boy was it disappointing. I think they used bottled sauce :( barely any tomatoes.. NO long beans!! Which are my fav in there. And barely any limes. No salted crab for how expensive it cost too! Didn't order anything else... not sure if I'll be back :(

    In a nutshell; Very cozy, yet fancy casual, great food and excellent service. Looking at it from the outside I wasnt really expecting how nice of a place it is inside. Not a lot of parking around, usual downtown sacramento Groans and pains, but looking pass that, youre greeted with a very nice ambience and vibe, server was awesome, the food is great, semi-fancy restaurant priced, but the deservingly so with how good the food is. Overall, an awesome establishment to try out!.

    Pad See Ew
    Marcel M.

    Had a great time at Hiso, another find from one of my fellow yelpies, you guys are on a roll! The pad see ew was incredible, so much flavor, highly recommend! Also the mango sticky rice was such a delicious way to end the night, creamy, sweet and so good with the coconut ice cream! Service was also incredible, our waiter gave us the best recommendations and checked on us regularly. Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Marcels foodie score: 4.3

    Came back again with a couple friends and tried the: Chicken Pad Thai Laos Sausage Duck Larb Mango Sticky Rice Everything was absolutely delicious (as usual). One thing to note, there's no mild spice level here, you can go from no spice, to medium level spice and beyond.

    Loved coming into this beautiful lunch/dinner spot the staff was super nice and helpful!! They have an incredible selection of draft beers, and the glasses they come in are literally so perfect !! You cannot leave without drying out the sticky eyes not only does it come in the cutest little container. It is absolutely delicious.

    Chicken and rice special
    Lynn H.

    I popped in for an extra long lunch. This place is pretty cute. It would be a nice date night spot. The service is great too. I ordered the chicken and rice special. I love this preparation of chicken. The sauce we really nice and the consumè was lovely. The hibiscus iced tea was sweetened, and just ok. Definitely coming back to try other dishes!

    Hibiscus tea
    Alan J.

    Came here on a tuesday night. We ordered the crispy chicken skin yellow curry with chicken and chicken pineapple fried rice. I also had the hibiscus tea. Everything tasted very very good. This was a very yummy meal. The ambiance inside was very comfortable and relaxing.In fact, I don't think I have ever went to a restaurant that had more comfortable chairs. The christmas tree was also nice. Service hero is very attentive also. Our server was helpful, but not overbearing.She seemed to know exactly when we needed something.And when we didn't. This was a five star visit.

    Beef pad Thai
    Billy L.

    I'm from the Bay Area where there are tons of good Thai spots, so I wasn't expecting much when I was in Sacramento for the night and craving Thai food. We picked this place kind of randomly and it ended up being way better than expected. Honestly, probably one of the top 3 Thai places I've ever been to. We got the crispy chicken skin to start and it was delicious! Super crispy, really flavorful, and the sweet chili sauce on the side went perfectly with it. I could've easily eaten a couple more orders. We also tried the papaya salad. We asked for mild since my partner can't do spicy, but it was still really hot. I usually go for spicy and even I felt it. If you're sensitive to heat, definitely go with no spice and add chili on your own. The beef pad Thai was great too. A lot of places mess it up with weird noodles or it ends up looking too red and tasting off, but this one was perfect. Good texture and flavor without being too sweet or oily. The space is nice but it gets loud. There was a birthday party going on and they were super loud, so maybe not the best place for a quiet dinner. But the service was great. Super attentive and friendly. Overall, really impressed. I'd absolutely come back next time I'm in Sacramento.

    Tom Kha
    Chau P.

    Hiso is one of my favorite Thai restaurant in Sacramento. I make sure to always get their green Thai tea here because it comes in a big jug. Their tom kha is amazing. The ambience is super nice to have a date night, it's quiet, and have lovely decorations. Service could be a little slow as I've only ever see one server when I'm here, but they are super nice.

    Lois N.

    My friend recommended this place to me and it was pretty good! There is street parking around the establishment and the staff were friendly. I went to get Thai food but then got a Cambodian dish as I've never had that before. The noodles were good but a little bland. I tried their thai sticky rice and mango dessert but unfortunately it wasn't ripe. I'd like to return to try an actual thai dish next time since that's what was initally recommended.

    Calamari small portion
    Theresa G.

    We came here on a Sunday right at 5pm. Service was cordial and timely. We ordered appetizers like Calamari and steamed pot stickers. They were great and we loved the calamari dipping sauce. The veggie spring rolls were fresh and vibrant. We the ordered shrimp pad thai, curry chicken crab fried rice and pineapple fried rice. Everything was 10/10 The crab fried rice and shrimp pad Thai was my absolute favorite. So much so we forgot to take pictures- lmao. A white wine bottle was our drink of choice for dinner. To finish off the mango sticky rice completed our meal. By the time we left the place was packed. Can't wait to go back!!

    Came here on a weekday with my coworkers. We had a party of eight and it wasn't too bad getting a table. The workers were very nice and welcoming. They even told us about the chefs special. It seemed like there was another party happening in the restaurant which made it super festive and exciting. The food was really good, especially the appetizers. Id definitely come here with a group of people and do a family style so you can try different things on the menu.

Food was delicious and everything was flavored well - love the sauce pairings. Originally I thought the root was more like veggie tempura but is actually more of a fritter with a sauce. Very crispy. The Hai Yai Fried Chicken has a nice crispy outer skin, cuts really well - meat melts away from the bones, and the fat portion taste really good. The main con I want to call out here is based off how it cuts I thought the chicken meat inside would be very juicy - but is actually kind of dry. So docking points for the inside chicken meat portion. Really love the pandan sago coconut ice cream tho. Ice cream has actual coconut meat in it and the salted coconut sauce on the outside nicely balance the sweetness of the ice cream. Will come again if in town.

The sauce had depth and freshness, and it felt indulgent without being heavy. If it had pushed the spice level just a bit further, it would have been elite. Still, a very satisfying bowl and one I would gladly order again

Also could've used more sauce. Still good, just not quite dialed Green Curry (2.5/5): This one just didn't show up. The flavors felt muted and never really came together.

I was surprised by how mellow it was and they didn't ask about a heat level so must have got no heat because there was barely any spice. I would have been cool with a little more! I am not super familiar with green Curries so not sure this was authentic Thai flavor but it was good. The dish had a creamy base with Thai basil coming out in some of the bites. It had lots of bamboo shoots! ( 1 cup? maybe a few too many), bell pepper, broccoli and eggplant. I still liked it though and would order it again, but would just ask for more broccoli or other veggies so the ratio was better. It was a good size bowl of curry with a heaping pile of what they called brown rice but I was happily surprised to see it was purple! I have fond memories of a Thai restaurant in SoCal that served purple rice with this amazing yellow? curry with potatoes and carrots. So perhaps Thai brown rice is just purple and I'm cool with it My dad got the avocado green curry with beef and enjoyed it as well. My boyfriend go a Thai burger and he said it had Thai spices but wasn't as good as an American burger. Nothing special it seemed. My dad's girlfriend got fried rice but I guess it wasn't that good since my dad said that him and I got the best dishes. Dang, can't find any of my pictures. All and all we had a nice time and I would return for the curry. When I asked which curry is best, the waitress said the red or green fyi.
