Pineapple Fried Rice
Amber W.

This is the best Thai food. I am obsessed with the beef drunken noodles and the pineapple chicken fried rice! The basil wraps were also delicious!!

Creamy coconut soup
Gail N.

Nam Khong is an unassuming Laosian restaurant in a shopping plaza anchored by a hardware store. The food is served fresh and hot. This is one of our favorite spots for a healthy, quick, and delicious meal!! Heads up, it gets busy when the summer residents arrive. The restaurant is on Rte 1 in Westerly. Wonderful family run operation. This makes all of the difference!

Crispy duck soup. Egg noodles. Fried crispy garlic. Bean sprouts and basil.
Michele L.

After many many months of not eating here- hubby and I were greeted by the owner- by name! That's always very impressive. He chit chatted with us even before we could look at the menu but not in a bad way- we totally enjoyed the conversation and it made us feel like catching up with family. For starters we ordered the fried spring rolls with chicken and the fried Brussels sprouts. They make it so good here. It was perfect. Had to keep myself from licking the plates! Hubby opted for the Lao style Seafood Pho. The selling point was that it's made with real chicken broth- not msg filled bouillon. It had lots of scallops, a few shrimp and some tender squid. I chose the ginger duck. It had a nice gingery sauce with ginger matchsticks, snow pea pods, baby corn, peppers, and onions. The duck was nice and crispy. I also had a pot of Thai green tea. I've never had it before but it was very floral almost like a jasmine tea but I couldn't put my finger on it. Also smelled sweet like dulce de leche or something. The only thing was -- it's seriously green! Like spirulina kombucha lol. I really enjoyed it and I am a huge tea drinker. Peter, the owner, seems to like it a lot too! He says that since he's discovered the tea, he's been drinking it daily. While eating - there were about 3 take out orders, another couple eating, and a group of 7 who seemed to be on their lunch break and they called in their orders. All the apps were ready upon arrival and they only had to wait 5 min max for the rest of their food. They seem to make a trip to Nam Khong quite often. They offer beer and wine now. There are also 2 small tables for outdoor dining. Please give this place a shot! The food here is delicious!

52. Chicken Crispy Gai Kao & coconut rice
Jim B.

Food was excellent and service was great, they answered any question we had and did so with a smile.

32. Khao Sol -- stunning noodle soup in yellow curry. This one is with chicken. You can get it with pork, beef, seafood or duck, too.

From being on my "must visit" list, to eight months later, finally making my way into the…read morerestaurant. I had done some research and knew it was a small space so I was praying there would be enough open tables. When we talked in, there were about 3 tables open. It took a bit to get seated since the host/ server was busy getting together online orders and bringing out food to other customers. But after a couple minutes, we were allowed to pick our own table. They have 3 two person tables to the left, on an elevated platform. To the far front of the space, there were two booths which could easily fit 4 people each. To the right there were 3 tables for 4-5 people each. We went with the bigger table, but moved after a couple minutes to another table for a more private setting. For an appetizer, we put in an order of crab rangoons. As my entrée, I ordered the Khao Soi with seafood and my friend ordered the beef salad which comes with sticky rice. The crab rangoons came out after about 10 minutes. They looked crispy, and were wrapped in a cute, round way. The filling wasn't as creamy as I wish it would be, but it did taste a bit healthier than regular Chinese take out. The entress came out after about another 10 minutes. My Khao Soi came out with a big bowl, with some lime and peanuts on the side. I asked for more lime and cilantro on the side. The broth was a very vibrant color, creamy, sweet, a little tangy from the lime, and because of the cilantro had a fresh and clean flavor. I loved the combination of all the flavors, and it reminded me of a curry. The noodles were soft, but not falling apart and there was a good amount of it. There was plenty of seafood including calamari, shrimp, and mussels. The calamari was a little tough but the other items were good. I loved the crispy shallots on top as they provided an additional sweet but savory element. I finished the entire thing. My friend's salad was good. It was simple in that it was salads and herbs with minced meat but it tasted good. The sticky rice came in a ball wrapped in aluminum foil, and then put into their authentic little basket so it was full to pull apart. They do have a dessert menu and we were offered some, but I had no space. It seemed like the server was handling a lot at once so kudos to him and the small but mighty team in the back cooking everything up. I would be interested in trying other items on their menu.

I love this restaurant. The food has always been excellent and the prices are reasonable…read more Five of us went for dinner recently and we got a few items to share, here are my impressions of the experience. - Spring rolls. Crispy and light. Small but packed with flavor, an order had 5 of them. It came with a dipping sauce. - Chicken wings. Not big but well done. They came with a sweet and sour sauce. An order had 6 of them. - Garlic green beans. Delicious. Lots of flavor and nice texture and bite. The favorite of the table that night. - Brussel sprouts. Not a large portion. Lightly fried. - Pad Thai with chicken. Light and well prepared, all sauces and flavors melded together nicely. - Fried rice with pork. Light and delicious. Good portion to share among all of us. The restaurant does not take reservations and because there are less than 10 tables in the entire place, sometimes wait times can be a bit long. Many people do take out or DoorDash. Still, it's worth it. Laotian / Thai food at its best in Providence.

It was a Sunday evening. We had just gotten back from Boston on the train and were hungry. I went…read morethrough my bookmarked places on Yelp and decided on Haus. It was a first for my friend and I; we were in the mood for something yummy, but that wouldn't feel too heavy. It was very close to us, so in minutes, we were in their parking lot. We walked in and noticed its a big space. They have a lot of tables, a bar area, but also booths along the wall. Since there wasn't anyone else there, we look a big booth. One downside is that they don't have physical menus for the food, it's a QR code. To me, it can be overwhelming to scroll through so many options and remember them along the way. We finally settled on shrimp nime chow, pork belly drunken noodles, and Thai style chicken wings. Our waitress was very helpful in giving us suggestions and explaining some of the foods. I am very glad the food came out little by little as it allowed us to eat everything while it was fresh and hot. The wings came out first and they looked magnificent. They were glowing, crispy, and topped with goodness (crispy garlic, sautéed jalapeño peppers and onions). The jalapeño did not make the wings spicy. They did have a tiny hint of spice, but the sweet and savory flavors definitely overshadowed it. I drizzled some of the oil on the plate of the wings back onto the wings, but also on some of the other food we ordered since it was that good. The order came with about 4 whole wings, and 4 drum stick parts of the wing which definitely justified the price. We ate about half of them and took the rest with us. Next, was the nime chow. I noticed they these were made with a little less love since the ingredients inside were not equally dispersed. However, the flavor was good. I wish it had more Thai basil. Lastly, the drunken noodles came out. The vegetables were cooked perfectly, and it came with a good amount of fried pork belly. It was my first time have pork belly as a protein for drunken noodles but it worked really well. The dish was very flavorful, the noodles were cooked perfectly and well coated with flavor. Since we were the only customers there, we received all the attention. We also noticed they had a pretty good playlist going. For everything we ordered, it came out to about $50 which wasn't bad. I will definitely be coming back to try other menu items.
