    Saw they had some noodle dishes I'd never tried before so I gave it a shot. Ordered the Kao Soy and was not disappointed. They make both the broth and noodles in house. Different than many other Asian soups I've tried. Definitely worth a try if you get the chance. Service was very quick, efficient, and friendly.

    I wish I could give this place 5 stars because the service is so great but I as I keep coming back, the pho broth gets more and more bland. I can barely mix my bowl of pho without the noodles all ripping apart. The noodles are too soft or overcooked, sadly and makes the noodles too short. The tendon is still very hard and could be cooked longer for that softer, chewy texture too. Although, the pad is very delicious! It's my favorite pad thai in Anchorage. I ordered it extra spicy. Hits every time! I also order the egg rolls every time I come here, and it never disappoints. Perfect amount of filling and so crispy! Love the vibes and music here. The staff is very friendly.

    Drunken Noodle. Noodles too soft.

    VERY fast preparation! I ordered through DD and I couldn't believe how fast the order was ready for pick up. Flavorful and it was nice to try a new (to me) place. I agree with the other Yelper that said the chicken (in my Kang Kiew Warn) tastes weird, so I picked it out and thoroughly enjoyed serving the rest over the brown rice. Overall, it is very sweet and needed more spice. I ordered medium spice because you just never know if it's American medium or Thai death medium and I have to fly out tomorrow and I didn't want to find out trying to hold it in until the fasten seat belt sign blinks off and spending the rest of the flight in an airplane restroom with the flight attendants pounding on the door telling me to return to my seat for landing. (Hello, Siam Spicy, oh how I miss your 7 levels of heat, even though I almost cried at level 4 and I'm no wimp.) The drunken noodle was a mixed bag as the roast pork belly and veggies were expertly fried and tasty, but the noodles were far too soft. Fresh rolls were just OK, but large and did come with extra sauce. I prefer them more firmly packed and more flavorful, but they were better after being refrigerated overnight. Recommend ordering extra rice with the curry. They also took extra steps to package the order for safe travel.

    It was my first time here & will not be our last. We are moving all the way from Texas, leaving behind my parents who are from Laos & I wanted to find a place that had Laotian food that could compare to my mommas home made food. I had the cucumber salad, khao piek sen & pad Thai and I was impressed! I would highly recommend Mekong. This restaurant will be a staple for when I am missing mommas cooking & don't feel like cooking myself. Can't wait to come back! Customer service was amazing.

    Came back a 2nd time and then a 3rd time.. consecutively. PAD KEE MAO: 4/5 It tasted like the Pad Se Ew but with a dash of fish sauce and basil flavor. It wasn't spicy so I added the garlic chili oil that's provided on the table and it was delicious. The star is in their noodle dishes; It's the fact that the noodle is made fresh. BEEF PLATTER: 4.25/5 Seasoned really well! It had a nice sweetness but not too sweet (think Korean Kalbi style) with a strong lemon grass flavor! Love lemongrass! It comes with a side of veggies and dipping sauce. I like my beef cooked medium and it was medium well - the only downfall. Chicken Skewers: 3/5 Light curry flavored chicken with peanut sauce dip. Chicken wasn't too dry, peanut sauce was sweet. It was ok - never had this item elsewhere so I can't compare. Not an item I'd order myself but not a bad snack to share if others wanted to. Laotian Cucumber Salad: 3/5 Like my review on the papaya salad - the taste is too mild for me. It's a good intro for people who have never had these types of asian salads. A new and surprising taste but not overwhelming. I prefer overwhelming.

    Pretty decent fresh rolls. Comes with four.

    I've ordered from here a couple of times and was very happy. I didn't think much of the red curry, but I really liked the fresh rolls, chicken satay, and chicken pad thai and I'm kind of picky about pad thai. Got delivery through Grubhub and it was delivered pretty fast. Will consume food from here again.

    Chicken Satay.  Really good.  Although the peanut sauce could be a little sweeter.

    This place rocks! If it wasn't for the stay at home order, I wouldn't have found this gem. The food is so tasty! The portions are plentiful also. I spent $50 on delivery of chicken satay, shrimp spring rolls, chicken panang curry, and papaya salad and it was enough to feed 4. There was also a $4.50 Grubhub delivery charge. The flavor of everything was on point. Welcome to flavor town! I can't wait to order again.

    Extremely authentic and flavorful Pho!! Portion sizes are also HUGE. Came here twice during a…read moreone-week trip to Anchorage just because it was so good. Food doesn't come out as quick as other pho places but definitely worth the wait. Will visit again during my next trip! Staff is very friendly and a lot of space inside as well. FOOD: Lao Pork Sausage (8/10) - Can't find this in many places. Amazing!!! Super juicy, slightly salty sausage that pairs perfectly with the sauce and rice. Would get again! Pho Beef Combo (8/10) - Huge portion sizes for the price (superbowl). Amazing!! Broth and noodles are perfect Pho Tendon (7/10) - Also can't get this in many other places, but comes with so much tendon if you like it! Lao Fresh Rolls (6/10) - Solid spring rolls but the chicken is a little bit dry. I would get it again with only the shrimp. Shrimp Eggroll (5/10) - A fried shrimp in wonton wrapper, would skip this.

    The bowl of seafood pho here is pretty good, and similar to the one I tried at Phonatik recently…read more The noodles are just a touch less tender than others I've tried, but the shrimp and squid were fresh and tasted good. This one also had imitation krab, which is fine but not my favorite. The side dish of garnishes was kind of weak, just bean sprouts, lime and jalepenos. I wish it had cilantro. They must have been out of basil that day too, because we didn't get any with the pho. I want to find a seafood pho with fish cake or house made seafood balls. I think I maybe set my expectations a bit high since moving from Hawaii, every pho place there is a peak experience. My husband tried the beef brisket massaman curry which he thought was very watery and very light in the spice department, which he didn't like much. However our child loved her small kid size chicken pho and we all loved the mango smoothie. It's one of the most flavorful smoothies with perfectly thick blended consistency that you can still suck up the straw. Ambiance is kind of old, dank, dark, and dated but also holds some oddly charming quality nonetheless. Service was straight-forward. Special s/o to the man who welcomed us in, immediately fetched a high chair for our child, and then also helped me with my giant diaper bag which he didn't have to do but was very appreciated. I bet he's a dad.
