tofu Pad See Ew

i've been going here for a while for the pad see ew and it's amazing!! they're always consistent with the flavor, speed, and serving sizes. 10/10

Katsu Ramen

I'm so glad to have a place like this near my home. The service was nice and quick. And the restaurant itself looked very clean and tidy. My food was hot even after I got home. The pork was juicy and coating was nice and crunchy. The noodles are top notch, something I would expect from a sit-in restaurant. And they give you so much broth for the ramen that you'll have leftover for later. I also got the cheese rolls. They were crunchy yet soft. And the filling was amazing. I will definitely be a regular here.

Pad Thai burnt through container.

Pad thai was ok.. didn't like that they put it in a styrofoam container right out of the pan. Was wandering why the noodles were stuck together...Cause it melted the container.

Cheese rolls

the best Thai place me and my husband have ever tried and we've been all over San Antonio looking for new food spots. best service the lady was so nice and friendl. the food came back very hot from the stove and the cheese rolls hit the spot it's totally amazing love the flavors and spice levels we chose. definitely recommend other people to try.

First time eating here, didn't realize it was so close to home. Dining is currently closed but man do I have to say for a small hole in the wall restaurant the food is delicious! The chicken was nice and tender with plenty of flavor, the soup was nice and hot. When they tell you it's gonna be about 15 minutes or so it's because they're prepping the food in the kitchen and serving it hot!

Pad Thai

Ahhan Lao Kitchen - Pad Kao Tum Yum flavor

Ahhan Lao Kitchen

4.6(19 reviews)

I was so excited to try this new highly rated Lao restaurant in Austin, but sadly my experience…read morewasn't as stellar. To start, I had issues ordering from the 5610 Food Co website and ended up ordering from their Flipdish one instead. Once my order was placed, I didn't know when to pick up because an estimated time wasn't provided. So after letting over half an hour pass, I checked in on the self service ipad to find out my order was delayed. Being a ghost kitchen, there was only one person manning the counter so I had to wait a bit longer until my order was finally brought out. For food I ordered the following: Nam Kao-This tasted like a fried rice dish but Lao style with the addition of their traditional sausage as we opted for the original version. I couldn't taste too much of the red curry but I did like how they added crispy rice which gave it a nice texture. Heavenly Beef Jerky- We've had this before at other restaurants, but this meat was very chewy and tough, and in terms of flavor for some reason it left a soapy aftertaste... Fried Pork Riblet Combo-Was excited to try this as another yelper suggested it, but again, this riblet was very dry and rubbery, but I did like the rice. Kua Kee Laow Mr. drunky-Such a fun name reminding me of Thai drunken noodles. This dish was a good filler. Sakoo Yat Sai Moo-This was my favorite thing here! These were very easy to eat, reminding me of Tang Yuan, and instead of black sesame paste you have pork dressed in a sweet/savory/fishy dressing. Overall, I'd rate it as a 2.5 stars as I wasn't especially impressed with my first visit, but hoping I came on an off day as I really do love seeing more Asian representation. I think they are still fairly new so hopefully this is a learning curve and I unfortunately was part of the growth experience. If anything, I would come back for the Sakoo Yat Sai Moo (tapioca pork balls) but honestly it looks like they rotate a lot of their menu item and it might not be available then.

This place is a hidden gem. It's located in the 5610 food co, which is basically a ghost kitchen…read morefor a number of restaurant concepts. You can order at the sparse counter from any of the restaurants but 95% of the business seems to be delivery services or takeout. The food was really flavorful and the potions were generous (average entree $15-20). They even threw in complementary dumplings! My only feedback is that the tablet at the counter forced me to choose spice level 1-10, and even 1 had a nontrivial spiciness to it--would love an easy way to say "not spicy at all" Will definitely come back soon and hope they succeed!!
