Guys WHY doesn't this place have more reviews??! Not only is the store itself an absolute goldmine…read morefor super niche Thai products but dude the gelato flavors are insane! If you like unique & Asian flavors you'll LOVE their selection. I'm talking Thai iced tea, Thai GREEN TEA (rare flavor unlocked asf, ifykyk), Milo, mango sticky rice, coconut pandan etc. like where else can you find all of these flavors under one roof? I also like that it's gelato so it doesn't feel too heavy & the texture is really nice. They also do Thai tea floats & sell warm snacks, but I didn't get to take much of a look at those since I came right before closing. Overall 10/10 hidden gem that deserves way more recognition than it has on Yelp.

Some of the ones that caught my eye were pandan, mango sticky rice, green Thai tea, and Milo. The best part is that they offer free samples, so I got to try a few before committing. My favorite by far was the mango sticky rice flavor. It somehow captured the taste of the actual dessert really well and was creamy, sweet, and super satisfying. Great selection and friendly service!

My favorite Thai food place in Toronto!! Came on a Saturday night and expected a long line, but…read morethey said it was going to be a 30-45 minute wait for a party of 6. We actually got called in around 20 minutes though, which was great. They asked us if we were okay with a shared/communal table, so maybe that's why it was faster, but the shared tables are not bad at all. We ended up getting seated right in front of the TV while a FIFA game was going on, so the vibes were great. The staff were also super friendly and would stop by to watch and chat for bits at a time. Every time I come, I always order the pad thai and the khao soi. The pad thai is amazing and not too sweet or sour. The khao soi was also delicious and the braised beef was so tender. For drinks, I ordered the Thai iced tea, which is a little on the sweeter side, but was great once the ice melted a little bit. Overall great food, great vibes, would definitely come back!!

The chicken wings were made particularly tasty from the dipping sauce, The beef pad see ew was good. Our fish green curry was excellent. The fish was cooked perfectly. The curry and the soup each come with rice served in a leaf. Although we were full, we ordered the mango sticky rice because it was highly recommended, It was excellent, because the mango was ripe. We waited 35 minutes to be seated and were told the expected time. Once we ordered, the food arrived promptly, water was refilled frequently, dirty plates were removed to make room for dishes. This restaurant is a popular spot with a well deserved reputation. All guests had a good time. Definitely would return.

I'm definitely coming back here!…read more We ordered the Tapioca dumplings, the beef messemen curry, and the mango and purple sticky rice. Wow! It was all so tasty. The tapioca dumplings are unlike anything I've tasted before. They serve it with a side of lettuce, mint and peanuts. I liked the dumplings better without the sides they served! The lettuce and other add ons dim the flavors of the dumplings. So I prefer just eating the dumplings straight on. The Messemen curry was so flavorful and the beef was so tender! I'm a big fan. If you're a fan of Thai curries then you'll definitely like this! The Mango purple sticky rice dessert was also really tasty! It had a tasty coconut sorbet and it all went really well together. Service was good, food came out quickly, vibes were good. No complaints here!

Having visited Lao Lao before, I had the perfect excuse to return: catching up with dear friends I…read morehadn't seen in quite some time. Unfortunately, the day took an unexpected turn when I had to go to the hospital, and for a while I thought I wouldn't make it at all. As a testament to both the kindness of my friends and the exceptional staff at Lao Lao, they were able to accommodate us even though I arrived nearly two hours late on a busy Saturday evening. Originally, our table was only reserved until 8:00 p.m.--the exact time I finally arrived. Thankfully, with the help of our incredible server, Savanna N., everything worked out. Her professionalism, warmth, and willingness to help truly made the evening possible. More than anything, I hoped the wait would be worthwhile for my friends, who were visiting for the first time. I'm happy to say they absolutely loved it--especially the outstanding hospitality and customer service. A huge thank you to Savanna and the entire team for making us feel so welcome. As for the food, every dish was delicious. Nothing disappointed. The papaya salad was such a hit that we ordered it twice. The Beef Massaman Curry, Crispy Lao Spiced Chips, Banana Leaf Steamed Fish, and the seasonal Vermicelli Noodle in Chicken Coconut Red Curry were all exceptional. Although it had been about a year since my last visit, I was delighted to see that Lao Lao remains consistently excellent in its food, quality, and service. Bravo!

Highly recommend these dishes for your next trip to Koh Lipe!

I eat pad Thai in every city I visit and this may be the best yet since I first had pad Thai in college many many years ago. Been chasing that epic pad Thai for years and think I finally found it. Amazing depth of flavor. Partner got the Islamic noodles, which he thought were excellent as well, rich flavor and very well made. Would happily eat again. The only issue I had which made me knock off a star is that the glass and silverware had an odd scent, like the smell your glasses have if there's food stuck in your dishwasher filter -- if you know that scent you know what I mean. Just smelled funky and honestly the smell was ruining the taste (smell and taste are so closely linked) so I drank out of my own water bottle I had brought and grabbed a plastic fork to eat with which did solve the issue but still...less than ideal

It ranked 2nd out of 4 for Isaan food. It was good food, but not in the top 20%. I did try the signature som tam, but I would try a different dish if I went again. I've definitely eaten better som tam, and I think I've made it myself too. Service was attentive but a couple things went awry. This is the only Thai restaurant I can remember where I asked for quite spicy, didn't find it spicy enough, asked for more spice and then what they gave me was the same not spicy. I might go again, but I might not.

It had a great acidic kick to it and felt very balanced with the richness of the meat and egg yolk. The beef was a great texture. The fried chicken with sticky rice was also good, but some parts of the chicken were a bit dry such as the breast. Overall good flavour though. The khao soi was great as well and had a nice richness and savouriness to it. The beef was tender and the fried noodles gave some texture contrast. This place was such a vibe and the decoration itself is very pretty. Service was good too and pretty attentive despite it being pretty busy. I'd come back here to try more dishes!

Will definitely be back to try more of their menu.

As for the food: the Pad Thai was okay, but the Khao Soi was a letdown for me. It felt a little watered down and missed that creamy coconut depth and umami punch I like from a khao soi.
