    What a wonderful find! Only open for 5 months and right in my back yard. Alfred the owner speaks…read moreEnglish perfectly but I insisted he spoke French to me since I don't get to practice much. I was going to walk right on by but the warm inviting decor did just that... It invited me in. And the rest of the evening was just as warm and inviting as the decor. I stuck to seafood and everything was superb. Alfred explained that Laotian cuisine has the same ingredients as Thai cuisine but with a twist. It was like eating my favorite foods at a fusion restaurant. The Tom Yum soup had large shrimps, a thicker broth than I'm used to with Thai food, as well as the familiar mushrooms and veggies. But it tasted different in a very good way. As was the fish entree. Wrapped in bamboo leaves and topped with ginger and curry it was light and very tasty at the same time. I finished the evening with the sticky rice topped with flan and coconut which was a first for me. I look forward to returning soon and experiencing the rest of their menu.

    Wow, what a gem. This family owned Laotian restaurant is something you should not skip. The food…read morewas incredible, quick and great service. It was traditional Lao cuisine with a French twist, and the food was flavorful, refreshing, and unique. The black sticky rice Dessert with coconut milk and egg yolk was so good. I want to come back already.

    Had to try Lao food when in Paris and this seems to be the most popular. People were waiting for…read morethem to open. The place has plenty of seating and was a tight squeeze but I suppose that's normal to maximize the space. The staff were Lao and as we got seated it continued to get busier! 4/5 Nam kow - I love this wrap and always get it. Very glad I ordered this. 4/5 Ka poon - this is one it must fave dishes and got it with the blood. A must! 1/5 Steamed fish - was disappointed with this as it was not served hot and lacked flavor. I don't recommend. 3/5 Lao sausage - served differently like little meatballs and was good but not spicy like they should be. It was a bit dry. Would come back to try the papaya salad and explore other items!

We waited a good 30 minutes this time around. We were pretty hungry by the time the food arrived. Because everything is freaking delicious I am not even going to give ratings.

Portions are smaller than in the states but quality is excellent. Be ready to wait in line!

    Thai food in Paris... I came I saw I conquered. And it was…read moreGOoOoOd Upon entry, I was immediately greeted and sat. It wasn't crowded so that was a plus. I def smelled the food as I was walking from my hotel and that enticed me to eat here! I ordered the Prefixed menu which included 2 veggie spring rolls and the entree. Another plus was that the menu was in both French and English. Not all Parisian establishments offers that so that was definitely a benefit for me. Overall I'd give the food 9/10. The rice was a tad spicer than I expected it to be. (Im also a very lightweight spice person so there's also that) I LOVED my Thai iced tea. I ordered extra sauce and was charged for it. That seems to be the norm for most places now both in Paris and the US so it's ok. I'd def return! This was my first lunch in Paris and I was NOT disappointed.

The seating inside was a little tight, however. I tried the Pad Thai noodles with Shrimp and it was good but a little different than what we are used to in Miami. I also ordered chicken in red curry sauce which came with white rice, veggie spring rolls and some type of Papaya salad on the side. My hubby ordered beef with a ginger/citrus sauce that was good as well.

    On my last night in Paris, I wanted to get away from the sight seeing and family dinners and…read moreventure out on my own. With all of the options in Paris, I really wanted something comforting like pho. When I arrived, there was a line out the door and another ordering take out. Since I was only a party of 1 now, I was seated right away. The place is small and every table was full. We have a lot of pho in SF, so there were somethings that I noticed that were different. The noodles didn't taste like rice noodles, more like ramen noodles. They didn't have any of the typical pho items like bean sprouts, basil or jalapenos. The meat was prepared differently, but still very good overall. They didn't have any Viet Beer, only Tsingtao which is Chinese. No worries, I like them all. They also called the dumplings (or gyoza) by the term "ravioli", which was different to see - but probably easier for tourists to understand. Although I am no expert, this didn't seem to be authentic Vietnamese, but more of an Asian Fusion. It was quite delicious though and was glad I had the opportunity to try it out.

    Holy Phok! This is such an unbelievable gem! I did not expect it walking in but the Pho was…read moreamazing. Beyond that I just had paneng curry ruined for the rest of my life because it cannot get better then that. The Larb/Lap made of duck... is just the best thing that can ever be made. Truly mind blowing. It's such a charming hole in the wall family run restaurant where they are truly proud of their kitchen.

    An escape from the richness of food in Paris…read more FOOD RATING : The Shrimp Paste Rice ( 9/10 ) was the winner here, with the various flavors and mix and matching the assorted vegetables and meats. The dried shrimp was a little bit hard, but everything else was great. The Thai Sausages ( 8/10 ) were salty with a little bit of tang, and when eaten with a nibble of ginger and Thai chili, the grease blended so well. The Steamed Fish ( 2.5/10 ) was quite disappointing as there was barely any flavor to the sauce. It was also really pricey (over 20 Euros) for the small amount of fish - which is understandable because it's seafood - but the quality of the dish did not makeup for the high price whatsoever. The Rice Porridge ( 8/10 ) was really comforting and very tasty, and had ginger, fried onions, pork, and green onions in it. Nothing too special, but a tasty broth and great combination of good ingredients. SERVICE : The two servers working were nice and made sure I always had water, and would check up on how the meal was. Nothing too special, but it was pleasant to eat there. DETAILS : This place was a total random hole in the wall I found, but the food absolutely blew my mind. It tasted exactly like food from Thailand, from the sauces down to the exact ingredients they used. If you ever start getting tired from the rich, creamy, buttery food of Paris and crave rice and tang this is a great place to eat at. It's located in a corner of a mall in 13th Arrondissement, the mall being a little difficult to navigate with all it's twists and turns, but definitely worth the effort to find.
