Solid food! I did make reservations via google and they had our table ready right when we arrived which was nice. Got the Lao'D Sausage (really flavorful and had a nice snap when you bite into it and came with some sticky rice), Papaya Salad (quite fresh and came with a nice serving of fresh papaya, long beans, tomatoes and other veggies), Nam Khao (crispy rice, loved the crunch and herbs, cured pork it came with) and the Steak Tiger Cry (great sear on the steak itself and enjoyed the marinate it was in and the dipping sauce). The waitresses were attentive and had great customer service. You can scan the QR code and order/pay everything that way its contactless. Plenty of seating indoors. Parking - within the plaza next to meet fresh/Le Kream read more

Ambiance -good Order process - scan to order -good and easy- no wait for server and no pressure to order or add order Food 2/10 all 3 dishes taste were off from what we like ( or used to) - too sweet for all 3, food are dry and hard- noodle was sticky and hard, rice was dry, basil chicken was dry. Food temperature was not hot enough either they let it sit for a long time or they premade. Even the fish sauce on the side was sweet. Parking- small very tight and crowded. read more

Pretty authentic Lao food! I went with my Lao friend and tried a few of his favorite dishes. Overall, he said it was pretty authentic and the portion sizes were really good! Some of the flavors weren't as strong, but we found most of the dishes we ordered to be tasty. We got the Lao'd sausage, Nam khao, drunken noodles, and khao piak sen. Definitely order the Nam Khao and skip the Khao Piak Sen! - Lao'd sausage (3.8/5): The Lao'd sausage came with a side of sticky rice and some kind of spicy sauce. It was really fun to eat and flavorful. The sausage was fatty and had a good texture with chunky bits inside. I've tried Lao sausage before and found that others were more juicy and spicy, so I did find this one to be a bit lackluster in comparison. - Nam khao (crispy rice) (4.4/5): This was by far my favorite dish. The texture was amazing, it was filled with so many crispy pieces and paired really well with the crunchy lettuce. Flavor wise, I thought it was missing something because I heard it was suppose to be pretty sour and spicy, but after my friend asked for extra lime, it really brightened up the dish and I loved it! DEFINITELY ASK FOR LIME! - Drunken noodles (3.6/5): Pretty solid drunken noodles! I liked how the noodles weren't too broken and the sauce was kinda sweet. Also the veggies added a nice crunch and flavor. - Khao piak sen (loa chicken noodle soup) (2/5): I found this dish to be lacking in a lot of flavor, but the noodles had a very nice chewy texture. It's a very basic soup in general, so maybe it's suppose to be plain. Service/Ambiance: The restaurant ordering system was based on scanning a QR code then ordering and paying online. The atmosphere was very casual and relaxed. We would definitely come again especially for that Nam Khao. read more

... Got some to-go Thai food. My Thai generally surrounds around Tofu fried rice, and a curry rice. This time it was green curry. Green curry has the sprouts, kaffir like greens, and some veggies. They gave red peppers on the side to add for that more spicy kick. Ate the curry with the fried rice instead of the regular jasmine rice, liked that combination a little. Also got the Papaya salad, which is also so typical to Thai restaurants and one of my favorites. Its crunchy and just the right spice. V yummy. Service was fast and good. Restaurant is pretty well maintained. read more

The tiger steak, crack pork belly and Khao poon were all fantastic and worth ordering again. Plenty of parking in the nearby garage on a Saturday evening. The servers were all attentive and kind and made great suggestions. Being an introvert, I loved the QR code you use to place orders and pay your bill all at your table. read more

Food was not that great & services were terrible . Restaurant only had one waiter smh . Would not recommend or come back .

Was in the Chinatown area and was looking for great Thai food so we stumbled about this restaurant and I will definitely be back!! This is actually Lao x Thai fusion so it was really cool trying a new cuisine. The service is great and super efficient ( you order and pay at table without speaking to server, although they are still very attentive and great at answering any questions). The vibe was great for a friend hangout, or even a casual date night spot. The music selection is great (r&b, rap, pop ... a little bit of everything really). Last but not least, the food was delicious!!! We ordered the tiger steak (100/10) and basil fried rice (7.5/10). Both had great portions (big enough to leave you full if you come hungry) and were very the perfect amount of seasoned. The biggest and only con is the parking situation. It's extremely cramped so when it's busy it is kind of a nightmare. I would recommend parking in the nearby garage or even somewhere else in Chinatown and walking. read more

I rarely leave a restaurant without left overs, but I have yet to not inhale every bit. It's hands down one of my favorite places on Bellaire. 10/10 if you get the chance to try it don't pass it up. read more

Came in for a quick lunch with some coworkers and was impressed! Well, first off, I'm visiting from SoCal so my standards for southeast Asian food are fairly high. That said, Lao'd District would easily survive and thrive in my hometown. This place has all the flavors of Lao and Thai food and more importantly THE SPICE. We only ordered medium level spice to cater to the table but I could tell the heat was there. We ordered the green curry, pad thai, nam Khao, crispy glazed pork belly, and papaya salad. Whatever glazed they put on that pork belly, they should bottle and sell separately. It was so complimentary to the crispy pork skin without making it become soggy. The pad thai was a perfectly balance of tangy and slightly sweet. Only giving it 4 stars because the papaya salad came out a little salty but I would come back to give it another shot. The restaurant itself was open and inviting. It was noon so not too packed but I can see this place getting full for dinner. Super easy ordering and checkout with the QR code. Staff was quick and attentive. Definitely a spot to try if you're craving Lao and Thai food! read more

Wow!! What I can say, what an experience. It's a hip spin on a traditional family style dinning. The atmosphere was clean and very welcoming. The staff was very attentive, pleasant, and the service was right on time. The food exceeded our expectations, my husband doesn't really do off the grid that much. Needless to say we both cleaned our plates and will most definitely return! Shout out to the owners!! Amazing job! read more

the service was fast, friendly, and attentive throughout our visit. prices were reasonable, and portion sizes were solid, making it a good value overall the roti was nicely layered with a satisfying char and was especially delicious when dipped into the red curry the crying tiger steak was easily the highlight of the meal. it was cooked to the perfect doneness, very tender, and had a great balance of lean and fatty pieces the drunken noodles had a great texture, not too hard or mushy, and weren't overly oily. there were plenty of vegetables mixed in, which we appreciated. however, it wasn't spicy at all :( the basil chicken was similar in that sense. the basil was very fragrant and aromatic, and there was a generous amount of meat, but again, it lacked any real spice the red curry leaned too sweet for our taste and was heavy on the coconut, which overpowered the curry flavor we were hoping for for dessert, the mango sticky rice had a strong coconut flavor and the mango itself was soft and sweet, but the sticky rice felt slightly undercooked the nam vaan was refreshing and packed with jelly and tropical fruits, making it fun to eat, but it was overwhelmingly sweet in all, the food was decent, but we were hoping for bolder flavors and more heat. the dishes could benefit from more depth, balance, and spice to really elevate the experience! read more

Really nice place, they do have QR codes on the table to be able to open a tab and order for your table. So no need to wait for a waiter to take your order. Staff is super nice and extremely helpful and nice. Ordered the chicken skin, red curry, green curry and tiger cry. I really love fried Chicken skin, I've had it elsewhere I make it at home, this one was not my favorite, some pieces were ok and some were kinda plastic textured. And i feel like it was lacking in flavor but beautiful presentation for sure Green curry was really good, the texture of the beef super tender, I know it says there is eggplant but I think it was sliced too thin to contribute to over all texture a little too sweet for me but over all it was good Red curry the texture of the beef was really tender I wasn't a huge fan of this one. I know how many flavors and aromatics go into curry and the heat from Thai peppers have this hint of basil taste normally and this kind of felt like the aromatics of the lemongrass galangal kefir lime leaves was missing and the heat seemed to be more cayenne pepper that Thai pepper Tiger cry is suvide then grilled. I think mine was over grilled so instead of medium it was more like medium well to well done. And I'm use to that chargrilled flavor and it seemed like it was done on a flat top or pan. I will say their price points are a little cheaper than others where a curry here is about $14 and adding beef is $2 additional as where most places are about $4 Tiger cry running at $20.99 All reviews are based on personal preference and taste. these guys are super nice and efficient and the fact that most of their staff are in the back and they make it easy to order from the table rather than having too many servers is how they keep their so reasonable. So I would say give them shot see what you think. read more

This was an interesting place. Had a very minimalistic vibe to it, but the staff was really friendly. You basically just have to order from your table using the QR code, and they bring the food out to you. But when they see you walk in, they do bring water and plates to you. I ended up getting the roti tacos. Sooo delicious! So it's kind of like a twist on birria tacos since they have the cup with the curry meat sauce on the side. Really enjoyed this, and my partner did too! I also tried the pad Thai, not bad. It was pretty standard as pad Thai goes. I can't wait to try something else here! read more

We took a short trip to Houston and decided to stop by this spot before heading back home. My husband and I are always on the lookout for authentic Lao food, and when we found this place on social media, we were so excited to give it a try. On the drive over, we browsed the menu and were even more thrilled to see so many traditional Lao dishes that you don't usually find elsewhere. The restaurant itself is super clean and modern, with a great ambiance. One small note--the booth seats were a bit lower than the table, so as a shorter person, I had to sit at the end to be more comfortable. The service was quick and friendly. Since it was our first time, the server walked us through the menu and helped explain everything, which we really appreciated. Here's what we ordered: Crab Papaya Salad (Tum Mak Hoong)- The portion was generous, and we loved that it came with *khao poon* (vermicelli noodles), so you could eat it like "Tum Khao Poon". That's something most places don't offer unless it's a separate dish. That said, the flavor was a little mild for our taste, we were hoping for more of that punchy, bold Lao flavor. Tiger Crying Steak (Suea Rong Hai)- This was a hit. Really well-seasoned, tender, and definitely worth ordering again. Lao Sour & Spicy Dipping Sauce (Jeow Som)- We weren't quite sure about this one. It tasted and looked more like a sweet chili sauce, almost like what you'd get with egg rolls. Not sure if it was a different version or a mix-up. Lao Sausage (Sai Gok)- It was just okay for us. A bit dry and lacking the depth of flavor we usually expect from Lao sausage. Sticky Rice (Khao Niew)- Simple but good. We appreciated that it was served in a traditional bamboo holder, which helped keep it warm. Thai Tea Flan- I didn't get a picture of this one, but it was alright. I expected it to be a little softer and jiggly. It had a strong cinnamon note at first, but the aftertaste leaned more toward the sweet, creamy Thai tea flavor. Overall, we had a great experience. The place is definitely worth checking out, especially if you're craving dishes that are hard to find elsewhere. We do wish there were more Lao staff or representation, it would add an even more authentic, local vibe. Still, it's a solid spot and we're glad we made the stop! read more

A friend recommended Lao'd District. There were plenty of parking as well arrived early (6 pm). Please was not full and had our choice of seats. Staff came over and explained everything can be ordered online via QR code and paying via the app/website as well. We started with the Roti with curry sauce. It was tasty. We also ordered the Lao's sausages. Sausage was well seasoned. The "sauce" is one the spicy side which we liked. It also came with sticky rice that offsets the sausage's spiciness . Definitely worth trying out. We also ordered the drunken noodles and Steak Tiger Cry. Drunken noodles was good... noodles was cooked just right. Tasty as well. The star of the show was the Steak Tiger Cry that our friend recommended and did not disappoint. It is cooked rare. The meat was tender and seasoned well. Good size steak. The sauce is like chumuchuri and complements it very well. Definitely will come back to have it again. Place is clean and tables are well spaced out. You can see the kitchen behind the counter. Staff is friendly and recommended the dishes we ordered. There is also a giant display highlighting the best sellers. read more

This place has entered my regular rotation because it's so good and consistent. Have since tried the curria tacos (5/5), which is made with their roti and some phenomenally spiced ground chicken. Never seen this version of birria tacos, but loved it. So flavorful - definitely recommend! Crispy pork belly (4/5) - well prepared but the tiger eye still wins for me. Service is still 5+/5. I asked the waitress about the mocktails and she insisted that I try a sip to see if I'd like it. Really appreciated that because I ended up getting the kiwi cucumber lemonade (4/5), which was unique and refreshing. Would have preferred it less sweet, but these drinks are pre-mixed so couldn't adjust. Bonus we got two complimentary strawberry covered chocolates in honor of Valentine's Day. read more

This is one of my favorite lunch spots! I always order the Tiger Cry Steak every time I come here, and it never disappoints; always cooked the way I like it. For lunch, they also include papaya salad with your meal. Today, I tried some of my friend's Thai Basil Chicken, and it was so good! I love that it includes a fried egg on top. My friend told me her roommate is also Thai and Laotian, but the food here is better than what he cooks haha. I brought my friend here for her first time, and she's now so excited to bring her other friends here, too. read more

I've been really busy recently to go out and eat in person, so I've been ordering a lot of foods to-go or through delivery. I've ordered from Lao'd District so many times so far, and all the foods have turned out so good every time. I really can't wait to eat here in person when I have the chance. So far, my absolute favorites are the Tiger Cry Steak and the Lao'd Sausages. I really think they have the best Tiger Cry Steak out of all the ones I've had so far everywhere else, and the Lao'd Sausages, which come with sticky rice, are perfect. I also really love the Crack Belly and the Mekong Calamari, and both of those always super flavorful. I've also tried the Nam Khao (Crispy Rice), and it was pretty good as well, especially the cured pork that comes with it. I also really love their Thai Tea, which is pretty concentrated and does not taste watered down. I was not a big fan of the Thai Roti Canai; it was just not as fluffy and light as I'd expected it to be, and I've had better elsewhere. I've also had the Khao Piak Sen (Lao Chicken Noodle Soup), which was not bad, but the chicken was dry. read more

Lao'd District - Khao Poon - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

Met a friend for lunch and we finally tried Lao'd on a Friday afternoon. It wasn't too crowded and we took a table by the window. I liked the oversized chairs. Very comfy! The server greeted us immediately and advised to use the QR code on the table which connected you to the Toasttab ordering system. All transactions from ordering to paying are done on the site. Even though the server only brought us water and our food, he still came over to check on us. I ordered the pad Thai and it was some of the best I've had in Houston. The chicken breast wasn't dry, sliced thinly, and the tofu added texture. I can't eat bean sprouts so I was able to add a note to my order. I normally have leftovers but I finished my entire plate! They have lots of other items and drinks that I want to try next time. Can't wait! read more

Lao'd District - Pad Thai with chicken and no sprouts. No spice. - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

On a blustery winter day after a trip to the dentist, I was craving some spicy foods both to warm myself up and reawaken my taste buds. Taking advantage of lunch time timing to avoid the crowds at Bellaire Food Street, Mom and I hit up Lao'd District for some good eats - here's what we tried: Khao Poon - This beautiful curry noodle soup revived me from the first sip - you can imagine it as somewhere on a spectrum between laksa and khao soi, with a focus on the fresh herbs and cabbage crowning the bowl to add texture and zest to the rich, warm soup base. The portion itself was large enough to feed both of us, but YMMV. Nam Khao - This delightfully crispy and savory dish is well balanced here, encompassing nutty morsels of browned rice, salty specks of sausage, and green herbs. Do note that temperature-wise it is more akin to a salad than a fried rice - the the lettuce leaves to wrap up spoonfuls of the rice, then chow down! Papaya salad - A side portion of papaya salad accompanies all lunch specials, balancing heavier meat dishes with much needed fiber and acidity. I loved the sweet, tangy dressing and the sharp crunch of green papaya, though a customization choice to up the spiciness would be nice. Thai Cafe - Similar to cà phê sữa dá, this delectably sweet and highly caffeinated beverage is a smooth yet bold salve to any spice you might encounter during your meal. It also comes with your lunch special! Ordering is quite efficient through the QR code on each table, but don't sleep on the service staff here - we were frequently attended to with drinks, napkins, and to-go containers as we needed. In a city with a glut of great Southeast Asian restaurants, I'm proud of Lao'd for staying true and standing out - I'm already looking forward to my next visit so I can try the khao piak sen, "curria" tacos, and sticky basil fried rice! read more

My friend and I tried going to mensho on Sunday for lunch but we didn't realize that they only open for dinner lol. She recommended we go to Lao'd district instead. Ordering here may be confusing but there is a QR code on the table and you order from your phone. We got the tiger cry, red curry, lao'd jerky, and roti canai. I originally wasn't going to get the tiger cry but then I saw that it was a sous vide picanha cut steak. I remembered how good picanha was at Brazilian steakhouses and just had to try it. It was soo soo tender and if you like fatty pieces of meat as well then this is for you. It comes with a sweet and savory like sauce that adds a little tang to the steak. My friend really liked their green curry but they were sold out of it so we got the red curry instead. It was made with bell peppers, coconut milk, onions, Thai basil bamboo shoots, and chicken. It had a good coconut flavor and goes so well with the rice. At first I thought the slice wasn't that bad but then it eventually hit me and was lingering as well. The laod jerky came with jeow bong sauce and sticky rice. The jerky was tender and sweet and savory. The jeow bong sauce didn't taste like what I expected, it is a spicy and sweet tamarind sauce but I didn't think it was that spicy. The roti canai was pretty solid as well. The roti wasn't as flaky as others I've had but it was solid and the house red curry sauce it came with was Soo Soo good, I loved the coconut flavor. read more

Lao'd District - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

There's a place in Seattle that serves the best Laos food. I have yet to find a place that serves dishes like that in Houston. I was hoping Lao'd District would, as it's one of very few true Laos places in Houston but I was disappointed to see they didn't have the specifics I was looking for. Their papaya salad was more Thai style than the brown shrimp paste Laos type papaya salad I was looking for - though I know they also have a crab papaya salad. The fried fish was battered and I was looking for a true fried fish with a spicy basil sauce with sticky rice. Now for the dishes I did try - papaya salad was a bit sweet and not my favorite. I was hoping for a more funky shrimp paste Laos style papaya salad, The Khao Poon had amazing flavor, but it was lacking protein! I literally got a bowl of just noodle, greens and soup! The chicken was barely present, maybe just small scraps. I think this dish could use some meat, quail egg, just something! But I would order it again for the flavor of the soup! The chicken soup on the other hand was salty and actual lacked much flavor on its own - the noodles I got for a to-go order was overcooked and stuck together in one piece. It was hard to break up, even in the soup, and ended up being little scraps of noodles afterwards. The chicken was there but just dry. I would like to maybe give dine in a try here.. maybe it'll be a better experience being presented the meal as it's suppose to look, and maybe the khao poon would have more substance played at the restaurant. Overall, I liked it but there's room for improvements! read more

Lao'd District is a cute eatery situated in a busy shopping center in Bellaire. It is neighbor to one of my favorite, pop up dessert bars - Pop Fancy! Parking in the shopping center can be pretty horrendous, especially on the weekends so plan to spend a little extra time hunting down a parking spot. Something unique about Lao'd District (that I loved) was their ordering system. Patrons can scan a QR code that allows you to order and pay directly through your phone, which makes splitting bills a breeze! The service was quick and friendly. The food was pretty good. None of these dishes struck me as exceptional, but everything was prepared well and had great flavor. The Pad Thai was good but, honestly, it was nothing special (I've had way better). The steak tiger cry was very flavorful but a little overcooked for my taste. The laab was quite tasty and very fresh - plus the portion size was very generous! Lastly, the roti was incredible - flaky, buttery, soft but with a crisp and served with an amazing curry sauce. YUM! I will definitely order the roti again. Overall, my experience at Lao'd District was a great one, and I would absolutely return! read more

The food was great and the service was quick. I love how the restaurant uses Toast Tab for order input. Customer can just scan the QR on the table and pay for what they order, without having to ask the employee can we split the check. The restaurant was spacious and chill. Highly recommend for this place for group gatherings. My Table Order - Thai Roti Canai: Very Fragrant with coconut, but unfortunately more on the sweeter side. 6/10 - Pad Thai: Basic and could hardly go wrong. 7/10 - Chicken Laab: Delicious, light and refreshing. 9/10 - Steak Tiger Cry: Deliciously cut into nice size slices, but more cooked than I like. Wish it was medium rare, instead of medium. 8/10 Tips for improvement: Serve the Chicken Laab with Shrimp Chips for a 10/10. Overall, I love this place and would come back again soon, if I'm in the area. read more

Interesting place, I'm definitely not a fan of the ordering process. Everything appears to be through the phone, which would be okay, buy I have a lot of questions and not really an opportunity to ask because literally the minute I sat down and settled in, the empty restaurant with jus6 me got 3 more tables... what the heck?? There is also something going on at a neighboring restaurant, a line formed outside for ... ice cream and or candy? No thank you. I'll take spicy food over sweet food anytime. I ordered a spicy vermicelli noodle soup with Ricky's help, *thank you Ricky ! It's delicious. I will post them name of it soon, but its delicious! I didn't notice cilantro in the description, I would have preferred no cilantro, but easy enough to pick out. The soup is served/garnished with a nice crispy cabbage mix, the combination of the crisp cabbage and the spicy soft vermicelli is above expectations, really elevates the soup. Khao Poon is the name of the dish. Highly recommend. Reminds me of Tom ka soup, minus the mushrooms. I will say, I can't help but notice that Ricky seems to be taking more orders in person than guests ordering via the phone. I think this would be the preferred method, especially if Ricky and his counterparts expect a tip. I tip on service and ordering thru the phone would not garnish a tip from me. Lucky Ricky stepped up for this old lady and took care of me personally, good man @ read more

I've been sleeping on this place y'all... I always drive past here and never thought to try it until now. Very authentic Southeast Asian experience here! The roti canai was what you'd expect, the roti was buttery and flaky while the curry dip was full of flavor. I tried the crispy rice salad (nam khao) for the first time and I quite liked it. It was very limey and fresh. I think if it was crispier it'd be perfect! The crying tiger steak was solid. The steak had a nice sear and was tender. I loved the sour dipping sauce. The papaya salad with raw crab was my favorite. There was a generous amount of crab and sauce. The crab was so tender and sweet while the papaya was spicy and limey! Every dish I had was amazing and I love seeing Lao food being showcased in this area of town! read more
