    Pad see ew beef
    Daniela B.

    Thai food is one of my favorite cuisines and while I was initially saddened to see the prior restaurant go, I was glad that the new restaurant still served Thai dishes! This appears to be a hole-in-the-wall type of restaurant. They have not officially opened but they are on DoorDash and you can already order so that's nice. When I ordered for dine in, it did take a while but on a separate occasion, I ordered on DoorDash and it didn't take a long time so just be ready to wait if you eat there in person. Their pad see ew was delicious, I was glad that it was not watery and the taste felt authentic. The beef was a bit difficult to chew unfortunately but another time I ordered chicken and it was good so I recommend selecting chicken for the protein if you are in between the two. The garlic ribs were delicious with the sauce that they provide. Now, the Thai tea tasted a bit sour and I don't know if I had a bad batch but I wasn't a big fan. Overall I would go again because I can tell they serve authentic Thai dishes! The owner was also very kind.

    Looked up this spot when my other sushi restaurant was closed for the day. Happy I did for sure. I was the only customer at the time and sat down to eat and was greeted well. Seems like a family owned business. The gentleman made the sushi right in front of me and it was so fresh! The presentation of the sushi was nice as well. I eat only raw sushi, so the temperature matters and their sushi was the correct temp. Excellent all around.

    Lao papaya salad
    Riley B.

    The service was amazing, everyone was very friendly. It was my first time trying Lao food and I'd always wanted to try some of the country's national dishes like Larb, papaya salad, and Lao sausage. All three dishes were delicious, and our server was very kind and helpful when it came to answering any questions about the food. He also gave Thai tea on the house which really was going above and beyond. Apparently this place hasn't had their official opening yet as of the time of my review, and they have a lot of really fun stuff planned for their full menu (like sushi) when they fully open and I definitely will be back. The food really was amazing and I'm just upset I waited this long to try Lao food because wow it is good. The sausage in particular is unlike anything I've ever had before. Everything is homemade.

    Chicken wings with shrimp sauce

    I Tried Wasabi Cafe 77 tonight while in town and looking for something different than the usual places I visit. Do not let the exterior of the building scare you away. The food is excellent! It's a nice little hole in the wall kinda place. The service was excellent and food was ready when I arrived. I ordered the garden rolls for appetizers, note the order comes with 2. I also ordered the chicken wings, they were delicious with the shrimp sauce. For the main course I got the chicken larb. It was better than any larb I have tried before! Fresh ingredients and spicy flavor. The only complaint is I would have liked some lettuce leaves or something to wrap it up. The portions are really large and possibly enough for 2. Pass the word around about this place so they get more business and stay open! Very delicious!! I would give 10 stars if possible.

    Nice place for a casual lunch. Portions were fair and flavors were balanced. I'd rate it around four stars.

    I really like Lao food, especially the sausage, pork skewers, and several of the salads, led by the…read morepapaya salad, and the Jeow Bong chili paste. But it is the dish shown on the menu as Kao Poon that was the Laotian dish that first got my attention. This dish has several names, including Lao Laska, which is the name I used to order it the first time, at a Chapel Hill restaurant called Merilon, sadly no more! There are different version, of course, since this spicy noodle dish is served not only in Laos, but also in Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, Cambodia, and The USA. It is served at 18 Malaysia in Winston, where it is shown on the menu as Malaysia Curry Noodle Soup, and I have eaten this dish at this restaurant quite a few times. The dish as served at So-Sapp is a very nice version, though I prefer the one at 18 Malaysia because of the very flavorful broth, and that you have a number of protein choices, while at So-Sapp it is limited to chicken. The other items I've had here have been good, especially the sausage, the pork skewers, and the Jeow Bong. The papaya salad was just ok.

    Great choice for Thai-Laotian fusion dishes. We chose this spot for takeout after reading the…read morepositive reviews on Yelp. We also thought it would be quick since it mentions street eats and that it has a drive-thru. If you are in a hurry I would order in advance. They do have a drive-thru for pick-up orders. The menu is slim, but adequate and the dishes are customizable (regarding ingredients and spice level). We ordered: Pad Thai chicken ($12.99) Pad Thai tofu - medium spice ($12.99) Thai chicken fried rice - no onions ($12.99) Mango sticky rice ($7.99) Brown sugar boba ($5.99) We enjoyed each of the dishes and recommend this restaurant to others!

For the food, the crispy pork belly soup was unbelievably delicious . We had the whole baked Red Snapper and that was in a league of its own. The perfect compliment was the dad's fried rice. The drinks were phenomenal as well we had a multiple of them. Come experience it for yourself you won't be disappointed What's the downside? If I had give a critique, the food may have been a bit salty, but that's not unexpected with some of the sauces used. The service was amazing! I highly recommend it and would come back again

We came in with some friends on a Monday to celebrate a birthday. My friend has a gluten and dairy allergy, which was actually no problem here. So if that is a dietary concern for you or a loved one - this is a great spot to bring them! We were all able to enjoy a majority of the food. My partner and I both enjoyed a mocktail version of the roselle freezy - it was amazing! Either as a mocktail or a cocktail, you should try this drink. For starters, we had the crispy chicken wings, spring rolls with veggies, and the lettuce wraps. We all enjoyed the chicken wings so much that we got a second order of them. I enjoyed the spring rolls much more than the lettuce wraps as they had more flavor to them. For dinner, we shared an order of the Manda Amphone's Curry and the chicken pad thai. I originally did not expect to be blown away by the pad thai - boy, was I wrong. This is hands down the best pad thai I have ever had. If you love pad thai, you need to try theirs. I also thoroughly enjoyed the curry. Both dishes were rich and flavorful and came with enough to share between 4 adults. Overall, not having been to Bida Manda in 10+ years, I was impressed and will definitely return.

It feels like you're paying for the ambiance and decor instead of the quality of food but I digress. Our server was helpful with deciding what to order. She also provided the complimentary imitation shrimp chips while we waited for our order to come out. It wasn't bad but not anything like what I grew up eating. We did BBQ pork skewers for appetizers and pad lao - pretty similar to Thailand's pad Thai. Both were really good! They had this ube cocktail and it was very delicious. Happy to find this in NC of all places :) Now the other offender is that they claim to be an "authentic" Asian restaurant and misspelled "banh mi" but then showing "banh" correctly on the menu item not too far from it...
