" The food here is good, but I found the service lacking. It took a while for our orders to be taken and even longer for the food to arrive. When it did, though, the flavors did not disappoint! The mock duck curry was simply delightful with the right amount of spice, but the overall experience was somewhat hindered by the service inconsistency. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Lao Laan Xang last weekend and was blown away by the flavors. The curry was just divine, rich and spicy enough to satisfy my cravings. The atmosphere was cozy, perfect for a low-key dinner. Service was prompt, and the staff was incredibly friendly. I will definitely be returning soon to try their other offerings! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our experience was mixed at best. The ravioli was good but the pad Thai was a miss. The staff was friendly but our food took quite a while to arrive. The interior is inviting, but it can get a bit loud when busy. I might visit again if given another chance, but I’m on the fence about this one. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're considering dining here, just do it! The flavors in the food are phenomenal! I tried their larb, and it was packed with freshness and spice. The ambiance was intimate enough for a date night but lively enough to feel the energy of the place. Unfortunately, the service was a bit slow because it was really busy, but the staff was still friendly. " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I had such a lovely dinner here last night! We shared the shrimp noodle salad and the garlic fried rice. The portions were just right, but I felt that the shrimp could have been seasoned a bit better. The vibe was convivial, perfect for a catching-up dinner with a friend or loved one. The service was attentive, but there's room for improvement in ensuring the meals come out together. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I had mixed feelings about my visit. The food was good, but I found the flavors a bit toned down compared to authentic Laotian food I've had elsewhere. The atmosphere had a nice ambiance, but the service was a little slow, and we had to wait quite a bit for our food. I think there’s potential for this place to shine with a bit more consistency in food quality and speed. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had my first meal here and I can't express how happy I am! From the crab rangoons to the noodle dishes, everything was delicious! I appreciate how attentive the staff was to our needs, making us feel right at home. The ambiance was also very inviting. I will definitely return soon to explore more of the menu!
