Best WLM Reviews

Excellent, family-owned Lao restaurant nestled in San Pablo. The food is great across the board and the service is top-notch. Don’t come expecting premium ambiance, but if looking for solid Lao food (been to Laos and my fiancée worked in Laos for a year) definitely recommend giving this place a try.
Super authentic selection of noodle soups. Kow soy ground pork with chow fun noodle packs a strong umami depth of flavor, served with fermented fish paste (similar to Cambodian prahok) for an even deeper funk. Famous for it’s papaya salad.
Well-frequented by Laotian people, always a good sign.
Although I'm Mien, their khao soi here is 99% identical to the way my mom makes it. The sausage is also almost the same way my parents make it. The food here is very authentic (as most hole in the wall places that's situated in the hood) and homey, which is a good thing. Don't expect no Instagrammable type presentation or decor/ambiance, come here for the food. It is made to cater the Lao and a couple of the Laotian hilltribe communities here in Richmond and those who know these communities and love their food.
Authenticity is the key in the offerings from this restaurant, using the space from and old ethnic grocery store, the owners serves Laotian food that are home made. tried their mokpla, papaya salad, sausages, pork, sweet rice....all are properly done and perfectly seasoned.
My only issue with this place, it may be small to some people, but charging us for a bottle of water vs just serving us a cup of water, really cheap of them. The food is good. The bathroom is clean. It’s wheelchair accessible.
Unusual menu, I'd come try other dishes. But I'll ask them to make No Spicy! Because I asked mild spice, at the end I couldn't it, it was tooo spicy.
Small plates. When you every you feel it's an inexpensive place but not really. I paid these papaya salad and chicken fry $20+tips.
We were looking for south Asian restaurant. This popped up. Looked like it had great rating. We tried it out. what a gem of a restaurant!!!
We've tried nearly every dish here; they're great, but the dry beef, pork ribs, and barbecue chicken are the standouts. The dry beef and ribs come with a tomato-based dipping sauce that is so delicious, I'll empty it by dipping sticky rice into it. The barbecue chicken is great with sticky rice as well, and comes with a sweet sauce that I've found nowhere else, and is the perfect accompaniment to the chicken.
