The 29 best cheap eats in Vientiane

Place is clean and service was fantastic. Set up cutlery and served water. As for taste wise, it was not fantastic but decent taste. Tourist spicy level, which is zero to low, may be requested in this restaurant.

Great options for Laotian food! It is a really fancy restaurant. Keep this in mind! Food definitely costs more than other places around but I loved it and thought it was worth every penny. Staff were super sweet

Good place to sample local food. All dishes we had were full of flavors and in great portions. We ate the Pork spring roll, the Red curry steamed rice and the Khong soup (a vegetable soup). I do recommend all the dishes we had. The prices were were good too.

Nice explanation about Lao Food on the menu. The price is a bit high for what you get, the "small" fried rice with chicken is 25.000 Kip, for that I get a pretty big plate somewhere else. I missed any kind of spice in my rice and didn't get any chili soy sauce like you usually do when ordering this dish. There were no sauce or spices on the table to add to my taste neither. The mango sticky rice was so-so, I wouldn't recommend it since the mango itself wasn't ripe and sour instead sweet. Staff was nice and fast. Place was clean and calm.

So many vegan options there! They serve brown rice, tofu and lots of veggies. Their dishes are usually made out of oyster sauce. I just asked them to use soy sauce instead and they were happy to do so. The prices are really cheap and you‘ll get a great meal for that. I‘ve already been there several times!

I ordered the fish cakes to start and the red curry for mains, both were good but just good. Maybe it was just my choices that didnt give the chef a chance to shine but what I ate was fairly average. Staff and setting were lovely.

A lot of tourists eat at here. Good Laos cuisine with affordable price. Taste great!

Kualao is a renowned Lao cuisine restaurant, a favorite dining spot of several Japanese prime ministers. It offers an authentic taste of Lao tradition, served in a charming colonial French villa, accompanied by traditional dance performances. The menu features many enticing Lao specialties, including Laap (Lao national dish – minced meat with herbs, vegetables, and sticky rice, available in various types), Tam Mak Hoong (papaya salad), Sai Oua (sour Lao sausage), Khao Niew (sticky rice), Ping Kai (grilled chicken), crispy seaweed, and silkworms. There’s a Lao saying: “Nang hai bang thi, ni hai bang bon”, meaning “mind your manners when eating and seating.” So, be sure to book a table near the stage for the best view of the performances or arrive before 6:00 PM (performance starts at 7pm) as stage-side tables usually fill up by then—especially on weekends. One more note: please close doors gently—this beautiful building is over 100 years old (as kindly posted on signs).

It's worth trying this popular Laotian restaurant that specialises in authentic traditional Laos dishes. Usually busy during dinner service so advance reservations recommended. There are live traditional Laos music and dance performances every day at 7 pm, so it is best to arrive for this live entertainment. Dishes were tasty with some interesting options that we did not see at other restaurants. Very lively atmosphere and gets very loud inside when full house. Kitchen service was efficient and food came out quickly. Dessert was also done well and great way to finish the meal. Prices are expensive compared to other similar restaurants

The restaurant has 30 years of experience and specializes in Lao cuisine. My favorite dish is Duck Larb, which is served with fresh vegetables. Almost all the dishes here are rich in flavors, combining sour, spicy, sweet, bitter, and tangy tastes. The accompanying vegetables help balance the flavors of the dishes. The restaurant attracts many foreign customers, and the staff is very friendly.

The service was good overall, and the food tasted great. Unfortunately, I found a hair on my vegetables, which really affected the experience. What was disappointing is that there was no apology from the manager or any offer to make up for the mistake—not even a small discount. I expected better handling of the situation given the circumstances.

Kualao is a must-visit for authentic Lao cuisine in Vientiane. The duck larb was bursting with herbs and flavor, perfectly paired with brown sticky rice, such a fun and unique way to enjoy the meal. Beautiful setting, great service, and a true cultural experience.

Let me tell you about my recent dinner at Kualao Restaurant in Vientiane. Now, I wouldn't normally go for fancy places, but this one was a real treat. It's a bit on the upscale side, but the atmosphere was fantastic. The restaurant itself is beautiful. It has this whole traditional Lao vibe, and they even had dancers and musicians performing throughout the night. It wasn't over the top or cheesy, but it added this wonderful cultural touch to the whole experience. Now, the most important part: the food! Let me tell you, it was incredible. They focus on Lao cuisine, and everything tasted so fresh and flavorful. I tried this set menu they have with a bunch of small dishes, and it was the perfect way to sample a bunch of different things. There was this one beef salad with lemongrass that completely blew me away. Honestly, the whole night was fantastic. The food was amazing, the service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was just unbeatable. If you're looking for a special night out in Vientiane, I can't recommend Kualao Restaurant highly enough. Just be prepared for the bill to be a bit steeper than your average restaurant. But hey, sometimes you gotta treat yourself, right?

This was the most expensive restaurant I went to in Vientiane. My lunch bill was around 600,000+ kip. The restaurant is in a large French colonial home with very interesting architectural look to it. Interior is kept to its original colonial roots with an impressive wooden stairs, high ceiling and tile floors. I had: Duck Larb - that was pretty good. Flavorful and interesting as a dish. Luang Prabang sausage. I tasted great, specially with the chili sauce. River weed - it has the texture of a seaweed snack, but it is made from some leafy vegetable. The taste is subtle. Good to add some crunch to your dishes. Tumeric latte - that was decent. I can’t really pick out the tumeric from the flavor. Rosella tea - that had a stronger, sweeter punch. It was very refreshing. Lemon tea - that was a familiar tastebas south asian. Great for the hot day’s walk outside. I heard of the cultural performance at night, but I was not able to experience that. They do charge that 10% service fee on top of the 10% vat.

This is a good upscale place that serves local dishes but gives touristic vibes just around the corner of Vientiane downtown. The outdoor vibe is good and open, while the indoor ones provide comfortable seating but actually gives a pub-like vibe. The foods really taste good especially the local dishes although the spring rolls were more to the Vietnamese side than Laos style. I’m giving 4 star on the foods in terms of portions. The price are a little not par with the portions. Expect to get a portion for single portion if you intend to share. The staff and service are pretty good as expected of Laoatians. They spoke well in English and actually went out of their way to provide what we wanted and how we wanted our foods and drinks. Reasonable waiting time and not much variety of food options on the menu but enough.

A very good place to have beers and drinks and to have good food. Their Mango Sticky rice was so so, in Prawns fried rice were just prawns placed upon normal rice., someone mentioned same for their Prawns Pad Thai too. Rest everything was amazing. Place had Live music and was great to have dinner while your stay at Vientiane.

This is an amazing place to go especially for Dinner. All the food taste great and authentic. We ordered the fried fish, fried chicken wings, papaya salad, Lao sausage, chicken satay and a vegetable dish. We went on a Thursday night and there is a live jazz band. The singer, pianist, cellist, guitarist and saxophonist are awesome.

The evening ambience of the place was excellent, nice setups with soft music. Their food was however a huge let down. 6 of us ordered 9 dishes - only the pork rib was good. Kitchen team needs to improve!!!

Hotel recommended this restaurant 1min walk away. Upon seeing the menu I already suspected that I won’t get authentic Laotian food - the menu tried to cover everything from Indian to Thai to Chinese to western. The clientele look and sound foreign too. Food ended up tasting much better than expected. The only issue tho, is that the shrimps in pad Thai tastes rather off They accept credit card

Chill Hangout Spot in Vientiane If you’re looking for a relaxed vibe in Vientiane, this place is a gem. Cozy seating, good music, and friendly locals make it a great spot to unwind. The drinks are refreshing, the food hits the spot, and the atmosphere is just what you need after a day of exploring. Definitely one of my favorite places to chill in the city.

Ambience was good, not too loud and service was good. Food was alright as well with the beef noodles being our favourite.

A decent place to try homemade Lao cuisine. I tried the daily buffet options - the manager told me they're for locals. I imagine it's typical to get a plate of rice and pick 2-3 dishes out of the 7-8 available selections, but since I'm a tourist he offered me a larger portion served on a plate per dish. Which was not a bad thing because I really enjoyed the fish larb! 😋 The sausage wasn't as spicy or herb-y as I'd expected it to be. Overall I wouldn't mind coming back to try out other dishes.

Good crisp fish with basil and chilly sauce. Other food was also good. I liked papaya salad and the beverage here. The student staff is very good service, kind and made me satisfied. I recommend you to visit here if you want to try Lao food in Vientiane. The price is also affordable, coming from 10:00AM to 1:30PM to get discount for some of meals.

We stopped here for lunch on our first day in Vientiane to try some Local Lao food. Whilst it was not my favourite the food was all cooked fresh and was a high quality. The staff are super attentive and helpful. If you’re looking to try Lao food this place seems like a hit with the locals too

Makphet Restaurant — meaningful dining with a cause. This restaurant is more than just a place to eat; it’s a social enterprise that trains young Laotians with valuable hospitality skills. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with friendly staff who are clearly putting in their best effort. The menu is limited but carefully selected — every dish I tried was tasty, well-prepared, and clean. Service can be on the slower side, but it’s understandable and worth the wait given the mission behind the restaurant. Dining here feels good not only for the food but also for supporting a great cause in Vientiane.

I think this is the place we had best food in Laos. My fried fish with sour cream sauce is amazing. Fish smelled so good, and the texture is tender. They cooked with some kind of vegetable that I don't know but it was a perfect match. The sauce is really something. Ask for a drink in a glass if you're drinking there to avoid plastic!

I ordered a red curry with chicken and 20 minutes later got a yellow curry with very low flavor and a tiny portion for 60,000kip. Dissapointing just like most places in this area. The customers of this place seem like local and Chinese businessmen that probably enjoy this kind of lame food.

A great social enterprise that’s helping younger Laotians learn skills. The menu is limited but all options are delicious, thoroughly recommended

Stopped by for lunch with a friend while I was in Laos. Great soups, tilapia was wonderful, Salmon too. Simple, understated but chic atmosphere. Would definitely come back again. The crepes sounded delicious will have to try another time.

Hugely disappointing after the reviews here on google maps. Food is incredibly expensive and for vegetarians, the best option is to go for the set dinner- vegetable pie and mash and veg. The ravioli pasta was undercooked, dry and the mushroom stuffing was bitter. The 115,000 kip Caesar salad wasn't creamy, just tasted of anchovies and didn't use romaine but other greens which were wilted. Overall the food was too salty. The recommended dessert- the Black Forest, was watery cream and "jam". The service seemed to be run by one person who I assume was the manager who was friendly. She took most orders and was also in the kitchen. We asked for the bill a couple times but only got it from her when she got out of the kitchen.

A pleasant but not particularly memorable meal at L'Adresse - the execution was mostly good, though there were some oddities in the dishes that just didn't work. The goat's cheese pastries were more like stingily-filled spring rolls, the cassoulet lacked the richness and comfort you'd normally expect and it came complete with a strange foam on top. Given the price and reputation, the dishes here need to be elevated somewhat!

Went there for lunch. They have reasonably priced lunch set (48,000 kip) which includes large soup or salad, steaks (chickens, beefs, porks), and desserts. The food is delicious. The service is ok, some waiters seem to more ready thsn others. The inside area is quite dark woth mosquitoes.

Food is excellent. Products are fresh. The restaurant is classy and delicate. However, the owner should take himself a bit less seriously and considers his clients a bit more. It was cold, the A/C was blowing at us (half of us got sick the following day) and even we complained many times it was really hard to have him fixing that issue. He just wouldn’t believe us, or falsely thought he other customers were happy with the situation (we asked them - they weren’t). He should relax a bit and treat his customers with less haughtiness and L’Adresse will be really... an excellent address.

Stopped in for lunch today - had the excellent value set lunch menu. Very nice food across all three courses (the pastry especially was impressive, took me back to vacations in France), with highly competent cooking and attentive professional staff.

Very nice french food. Solid menu, not too long, insures quality. Wine selection is of course french oriented but very adequate. I enjoyed my foie gras and main dish. Service is very nice also. I do recommend for a long lazy lunch or a romantic date.

I use this restaurant for lunch. This place is so busy with foreigner. I am not sure of its accepting reservation. Taste is awesome, and price is very reasonable for frensh course.

Wow! What a great lunch spot. Three course meal for under 10 euro each person. Unbelievable value and quality was fantastic. Would recommend anytime.

There's a picture of the cheese plate because the delicious lamb disappeared too fast. Exceptional meal from Pierre & his team once again. Service from Antoine outstanding.

Dinner was great and service was pretty good as well I had ordered the beef tenderloin which was unfortunately really dry for the medium rare I had asked which turned out to be a well done sadly, And I had the tilapia and shrimp with coconut sauce of such which was great! And the pate was really good with the mustard cream pairs nicely with the bread and lastly the mushroom soup which was not too bad. Had no space left for dessert unfortunately.

The food was spectacular. We had wine and 3 course a la carte and it was delicious we went back twice in 2 days before we left 🥰 it was so special, thank you Chef and team ❤️

The food here is just amazing . Had the salmon and shrimp salad. So delicious. Gave the service 3 stars because we went as a big group and they took a looooong time to get all our food. But the food is just awesome, must try .

True French bistro cuisine cooked by a chef that has a passion for cooking. This shows by the food served and the chef himself checking that everything is ok with the food. We left very happy and the price is very fair. The pumpkin soup with blue cheese was delicious. Pate en croute was fantastic and to finish off the duck was cooked to perfection (medium rare for me and medium for my partner) with a delicious green peppercorn sauce and an amazing potato waffle with onion and bacon bits which was a first for me, but works so well! Not to mention the bread and butter to start was very fresh and the red wine for the meal was also really, really nice. Next time we will be back :)

I feel lucky to have found this restaurant! It’s spacious, clean, and very well organized. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, which made the whole experience even better. The menu offers a wide variety of choices, so there's something for everyone. The highlight for me was definitely the sandwich – fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. They also offer delivery, which is super convenient. Highly recommend!

Saw Vietnamese and barged right in 😀 had shrimp rolls and banh mi with juice . Everything was good and filling. Bought some snacks from the ladies right outside the restaurant which were good too.

PVO is one of our preferred restaurants in town! They serve clean, fresh and delicious common Vietnamese dishes for breakfast and lunch for different favourite and budget. Today after church we took our grandma aged 85+ who is on wheelchair for breakfast she liked and thumped up the food and service! The restaurant is always busy and finding a parking spot can be challenging. But mostly people and patrons are very kind, friendly and helpful. So be patient and show respect to locals. Thank PVO for their good taught and wishes of making accessibility for wheelchair people 🙏

The food similar with VNese food, with a bit adjust to suit with Laos taste. Beside main dish food like noodle, Banh mi, Cha cuon…we still can find Rau cau dua, Sua chua deo, Cha gio, Cha lua, Gio thu…infront of restaurant

Such a wonderful restaurant very basic and simple, but the food is excellent, and the price is extremely cheap. It gets very, very busy and it’s not difficult to understand why being such a great place to have a nice breakfast, especially. I get what you pay for so do not expect the best service or a luxury restaurant. It is what it is and that’s perfect. Good honest food at great price. Really really really recommend anybody to go here .

If you are looking for great Vietnamese food in Vientiane, this is the place to go. They have a wide variety of Vietnamese dishes to choose from. We ordered the Pork Pho (rice noodle soup served with fried bread and bean sprouts) & Bi Bun (pork rice noodles with a fried spring roll). Both of them were close to authentic flavor and the ingredients all seemed to be very fresh. The staff is friendly and spoke good english, making it seamless for us foreigners to order. The menu has english and Lao as well, so it is easy to look at the options. The place was very clean, including the toilet which was immaculate (this is hard to find in Laos). I highly recommend giving this place a try and I look forward to coming back and trying more of the yummy dishes.

Reviews looked great so we decided to give it a try. Food was amazing!!!! The service was prompt, polite and overall great with a laid back and relaxing atmosphere. They were closing soon before we finished and we never felt rushed or anything other than welcome. The food, order anything because everything we had was amazing! 7 out of 5 all day long and highly recommended!!!

This delightful little restaurant is a true hidden gem. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed, thanks to the owner's graciousness. The food is a revelation – authentic Lao flavors shine in every dish. The use of local, organic ingredients is evident in the quality and unique twists on traditional recipes. The handmade pottery plates add a charming, personal touch. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, truly like dining at a friend's home. It's no wonder this place is popular; booking ahead is highly recommended. If you're seeking a genuine Lao culinary experience, this is an absolute must-try.

A lovely little “home” restaurant that serves yummy Laotian food with great service and a cute sense of humour. Read the front page of their menu, where the “Kip is not worth the money it’s printed on”😅 and because there is a shortage of staff, patrons are encouraged to talk to each other. We had the cherrywood-smoked chicken, flowering mustard greens and Mekong fish. And both sticky rice and black rice. Plus coconut ice cream. We were pleasantly stuffed.

we came here for lunch as I always wanted to try this out after watching it on youtube. it is located inside a retro bungalow, the interior reminds me of my grandma home. the food here is slow-cooked, so don't Please Don't Rush, tasty and flavourful. However, taste is rather subjective as the some of the flavor may be too "jungle" or "herbal" for general taste, especially those expecting it to taste like Thai food. These are very distinctive Lao food, do visit for a new experience !

We enjoyed the experience here with interesting selection of delicious dishes that had nostalgic feel to them. Foods were tasty and flavorful. Staffs were very friendly. The atmosphere feels like you are eating at home.

The restaurant is very small but cosy. Their business concept is hardly commercial: they're open just for a few hours and only three days in a week. They compensate for it serving high-quality local food prepared from organic ingredients in home food style. Their menu is not big, but changing every day. The staff can communicate in basic English. Smoking is allowed in a small backyard where they have a few tables too. You can also buy there a book written by the owners, with recipes from Lao cuisine.

This gourmand restaurant is a hidden gem in Laos Vientiane. It’s an absolute must! Every dish offers a unique twist on traditional flavors, and the quality of the ingredients shines through. This place is always full so make sure to book a table in advance .

Great taste 😁. Spiciness is different, maybe it's the authentic Lao? It's kinda little sour with lingering aftertaste sweetness. Don't forget the ginger ice cream after eating huh! 😅 My friend asked for a "bophet" sauce but I guess they don't have. 😁

Anou Night Market is a great spot for street food lovers, offering a wide variety of Lao dishes, with grilled meats and papaya salad being the standout choices. The prices are very reasonable, making it an excellent option for a casual meal. This slightly hidden gem is highly recommended for anyone looking to experience authentic Lao street food in a vibrant atmosphere.

Really small night market. Some food option, but not that many. We tried delicious sausage here though! Worth visiting if you have extra time.

Went there on a Friday night, not much to eat, mostly bbq skewers. A lot of smoke, full of locals some by foot some stopping by bike. If that’s the kind of food you like then go for it, it looks better than the other markets in town, but no prices are showed so you might get the tourist price …

Night market with plethora of options from basic noodles to seefood and insects to try. Highly recommend the backdoor atmosphere of this a little hidden market.

Just a small collection of stalls that sell generally the same local food. You are better off going to Vientiane night market (the food one) nearby.

Great price for clothes and other stuff. The best thing about this market is - you don't need to waste your time and efforts on bargaining. The prices are mostly fixed and are cheap. Made in China but are good. If you are a shopping girl you would love it.

This place is amazing! Here I ate best duck ever and I have been in Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and now Laos. This duck was only 20.000kip (2.34$) and you get half of juicy, delicious, fingerlicious meat with crisp crunchy skin of duck. Skewers for 5.000kip (0.58$), sticky rice, sausages...they have everything. Lical food for čocal people. For me way better then Night Market next to Mekong river where typical tourists go. Btw. Ve sur to take some mosquito repelent, this is also their feeding area. If I could rate with 10, I would give 10!😍😋🇱🇦

I recently ordered from Noy's Fruit Heaven in Vientiane via Food Panda, and I was absolutely delighted with my meal! I tried their Fresh Spring Rolls and the Chicken Baguette Sandwich, and both were fantastic. The Chicken Baguette Sandwich was very satisfying – a good portion and the chicken was well-prepared. But the true standout for me, my absolute favorite, were the Fresh Spring Rolls. They were incredibly fresh, packed with vibrant vegetables and herbs, and had that perfect light and healthy feel. The dipping sauce complemented them beautifully. You can really tell the quality of the ingredients they use. Noy's Fruit Heaven is a gem for fresh and healthy options in Vientiane, and their delivery through Food Panda was quick and efficient. I highly recommend giving them a try, especially for those delicious spring rolls! I'll definitely be ordering again soon.

This might be one of the most stylish cafés around this area, often visited by young travelers and locals looking for that perfect Instagram shot. However, there’s currently construction happening in front, which causes a bit of dust. Also, right after receiving my drink, I hadn’t even taken a sip of my drink when someone came over to promote their massage service upstairs… which was a bit off-putting. While the smoothies here are decent, I think you can find other places around the city that offer slightly less tasty but more affordable options.

Good to grab a drink under the hot weather in Laos. The smoothie is healthy with fresh fruit and no extra sugar. The taste is natural with good combination. Satisfactory hygiene as well.

This is such a lovely place. The fruit smoothies are best in town and now they also have a few delicious dishes for lunch. We love to go here.

Super refreshing and tasty drinks with generous amount of fruit toppings. The store is clean and the staffs are friendly. Highly rec!

My new favorite place in VTE! I keep discovering excellent things on the menu. The fruit smoothies and drinks are unparalleled in all of SE Asia 100*

Fresh juice bar that also serves some salads and sandwiches. I had the falafel pita and cantaloupe juice. Both were tasty. However, like so many things in 2025, the pita was more for show than function. All the 5 falafel were on top of the ingredients, so it looked good but you had to eat them first, leaving the rest of your pita falafael-less. Two small tables outside. Not wheelchair accessible Credit cards not accepted

Burger is great here too. They'll make it in front of the restaurant as soon as you order. So far, the only (second) restaurant where I saw a root beer 😅

Came here for the Philly cheese steak baguette! So so good - meat was flavorful, onions caramelised and bread a good mix of crunchy and soft. Very well worth the money! Staff were very friendly, good music too. Sad to see it was a little quiet, we expected more guests to be there too.

Amazing food 😍 great vegetarian Falafel Burger and my friend hat a Beef Burger and a philly Sandwich and loved it! Mustard, Ketchup and Siracha on each table. Small and unimpressive place but worth a visit - best Burger and Sandwich in town!

This place is still as delicious as it was 18 years ago! Service is friendly and prompt. Prices are very reasonable and the extensive menu allows for many USA treats. So when you don't miss The USA but miss the food.... Go to Rays!

As good as other has already reviewed. You can expect a real burger here. Variety of Beers are also available. Pricing wise, it worth every penny. ps. You can pay Thai Baht here if you like.

Best Philly Cheese steak in town! You can either opt for beef or chicken - I'd always go for beef (but that's just my preference). Their burgers are alright. Waiting time for food has gotten a bit worse over the years, but definitely worth the wait. Can get packed during lunch time on weekdays as the space is small.

The burgers and the fries were surprisingly delicious. We didn’t expect to get good “fast food” here, cause it’s kinda hard to find in Laos, but this place did a good job. Not cheap food though, but worth the extra kip you pay.

Nice food and good atmosphere! The owner seems like a French and he recommended French salad which was awesome. U can enjoy Asian food as well as French food at reasonable prices.

Best french crape in Vientiane, there is also Asian food, reasonable price. Just in the center of Vientiane, Lao PDR.

The cheese in the onion soup was a blast! The soup is too salty for me. The crepes were ok.... they gave me a generous amount of salad underneath the crepes, which was a plus.

Food was good although cutlery and plates all had a white dust on them. Maybe it was just floor. I enjoyed my crepe and dessert. But be careful paying with Thai baht as the exchange rate given by the restaurant had a fee of about 10%. Probably the most expensive I have paid ever anywhere in the world. There is a money exchange shop really close to the restaurant where the fee is less than 1%. Go there to change your money beforehand.

Really nice and cozy place with a very friendly staff and owner. I went with friends for dessert and the crepes were delicious! The owner also helped make our friend's birthday really special. Would definitely go back!

Incredible food and reasonable price. The server/bartender was gorgeous, attentive, and courteous. Can't wait for my next visa run!

The crepes really are life altering! Try the Savoyarde crêpe!!! Great location and the owner actually cooks too!!! He takes pride in his French food. Thank you for your food!!!

Nice Indian food. Food tastes, not too spicy. The dishes are very big so don't over order, it's also not so cheap. I recommend the biryani rice, it surprised me for the better

Dropped in for a late lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the food. The breads were delicious, we had a paratha and a naan. The curry was also really tasty and a great level of spice.

I recently had the opportunity to visit this place, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The restaurant offers a wide variety of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, making it a suitable option for groups with different food preferences. To start, I ordered the Veg Pakora, and I must say, it was a delightful appetizer. The pakoras were hot, crispy, and full of flavor — a perfect start to the meal. The chutney served alongside complemented them very well. For the main course, I went with the Paneer Tikka Masala, which, unfortunately, was disappointing. The gravy lacked the richness and depth typically expected from this dish, and the paneer pieces were not fresh — they were chewy and didn’t have that soft texture paneer lovers look for. This particular dish brought down the overall experience for me, which is why I’m giving a 3-star rating. That said, the ambience of the place is definitely a highlight. It has a cozy and relaxed vibe, with comfortable seating both indoors and outdoors. The outdoor area is especially nice during the evening, and the restaurant’s location — just a short walk from the riverside — adds to its charm. It’s a good place to sit back, relax, and enjoy some time with friends or family. I would consider visiting again, but next time, I’ll likely try a different main course.

Buddy let me tell you.. if you are in Vientiane, go to this place for dinner. The food is great, the service is prompt, and the price is very affordable. They brought my food very quickly as well, surprisingly fast. The outside seating atmosphere is a little lackluster- plain tables on a somewhat boring stretch of street but besides that minor issue everything was fantastic. Indoors looks fine.

Yummy, my kid love it. They have a lot I can not decided to eat them all 😁

Their butter chicken curry tasted quite bland. I aso feel it had too much masala, lacking the taste of tomatoes. And it could've had some more yogurt in it? I don't know.

Nazim is a fantastic spot for a satisfying meal. The food is fresh, flavourful, and beautifully presented, with generous portions that feel thoughtfully prepared. The service is warm and attentive, with staff who are quick to assist without being intrusive, making the dining experience comfortable and smooth. In terms of value, the prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion size, leaving you feeling you’ve received excellent worth for your money. Overall, Nazim delivers a well-rounded experience that makes it easy to recommend.

We’re vegans, and when we arrived at this restaurant, we had a hard time explaining that we needed completely plant-based meals. Thankfully, the kind owner stepped in, spoke with the kitchen, and made sure they understood exactly what we were looking for. What we received were the most delicious vegan dishes we've had during our entire stay in Laos — everything was 100% plant-based and absolutely bursting with flavor. We wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for amazing vegan food.

Finally, a break from rice mountains and noodle jungles. Sticky Finger goes for European pub vibes, complete with Western music that feels like oxygen after weeks of Asian plinking soundtracks. Fish and chips—but with wedges. And honestly? Good call. Crispy outside, fluffy inside, way more bite than sad skinny fries. Fish is fried to golden armor and comes alive once you dunk it in tartar sauce. Chicken Kiev—the deep-fried butter cannon. Crunchy shell, juicy chicken, mayo riding shotgun because apparently one sauce is never enough. Wonton soup—Asia peeking through the curtain, offering a light broth with dumplings, chili, and lime to keep things interesting. All paired with an ice-cold Beerlao, which basically glues this whole cultural mashup together. Verdict: wedges win, music soothes, beer delivers, food comforts. This is Europe hiding in Asia, and it’s worth it. 4/5.

Sticky Fingers — love being back at this place! I had a fun gathering with friends, bringing back lots of old memories. We ordered a ton of food, but the highlight was definitely the BBQ pork ribs — juicy, tender, and full of smoky-sweet flavor that’s hard to resist. To finish off, the passion fruit ice cream was the perfect refreshing dessert to wrap up the night. Great vibe, good service, and still one of my favorite spots for comfort food in Vientiane.

Great food, order the southern fried chicken and it was amazing. The portions are huge and very well made.

Food was average, massive portions but under seasoned makes you bit disappointed. BEWARE ⬇️ We ordered food that was supposed to come to 335.000 and when received a receipt total was 470.000 they upcharged the fried egg for 15.000 to 150.000 (it was more expensive than the food we ordered itself) after recounting everything and given them the right amount they started to argue when they didn’t see what they did wrong and still tried to charge us 470.000 - disappointed with the whole situation and staffs unprofessional behaviour it was thankfully resolved few minutes later - double check your receipt

great service & lots of food options. only complaint was that our quesadillas & nachos came out cold :/

Just perfection!! Their chefs must be super fast to deliver top quality food so quickly. I was so glad I decided to try this place out. 😋😋 Food was so good that I forgot to click pictures lol!

A tucked away cafe recommended to us and we really enjoyed the quiet atmosphere. It is an open type of cafe so no air conditioning is available. They have several tables available for dining in. Ordered the Sticky Rice Pancake with Mango & Avocado Smoothie. Both were delicious. Enjoyed our meal here.

A bit of a ‘hole in the wall’ but it comes highly recommended. Down a long alley, it’s a favourite among locals so that’s a good sign. Ordering / interpretation can be a little tricky if the older gentleman is taking your order but all is well. The Yellow Chicken Noodle Soup was good, as was the omelette and coffee with coconut (cold) and the Lao coffee with milk (hot).

Simple food that is extremely delicious. Had the beef curry and ginger pork as the main and both were very yummy! I literally drank up all the curry because it was very good. The mango rice pancake’s crust is delicious and the mango smoothie is so good that I ordered 2 cups!

Hidden gem in Vientiane best food I had while I was here! The service is warm and welcoming, and the food is absolutely top-notch. The pho and chicken noodle dishes are spectacular full of flavor and perfectly cooked. Mango pancakes are terrific as well! It’s tucked away down a small alley, but trust me, the food is more than worth the walk. Food was so good we kept coming back. Highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting the city!

Cosy café tucked away in a alley. Interesting fusion food at very affordable price. The owner was very kind and helpful.

I just traveled from Myanmar, going around neighbouring ASEAN countries for looking friendships and common things. That Kung’s Cafe is something special, highlighted and recommended place to go when traveling to Vientiane. Loved to go there, I will love to go there again next time.

Red beef curry was divine, I'd as far as to say its the best red curry beef I've ever had! A bit hard to find but absolutely worth the hike ;)

I really like the meat steak because it’s very soft and delicious. Then, the atmosphere is fantastic which is suitable for a dinner! Service is excellent but, only thing that why I give 4 stars due to the price is quite high. I think I will come here again in future.

The quality/flavor is great but the presentation and portion sizes are extremely disappointing. I feel a little uncomfortable paying 600k for 2 ordinary non alcoholic drinks (tea and coffee) and two TINY desserts that aren't even garnished. Staff was very kind and I appreciate that.

Great restaurant, owner very nice man, fantastic reccomendation on the pasta. Also with the wine. Also was allowed to order a bottle of wine to take home. Will go back on my next visa run from Udon.

snow fish 330,000kips I was wondering what kind of fish and found its a cod fish.not even silver cod for this price is sort of ripped off. and sauce of rum taste too gravy. nice atmosphere and beautifully decorated though need menu to redone...

Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 (Which I could give it 10) Environment: 5/5 Variety: 4/5 Quality: 5/5 Value for money: 3/5 Yes, it's an outstanding place to bring your loved ones for dinner, I can't mention enough on how much I'm impressed with the service, we were also promptly seated. The environment and seatings are great, luxury is the best word to describe it. There is 0 worries about the food quality, all foods are clean and authentic. Some menus feels like overpriced, especially desserts. (Doesn't mean they're bad) [Photos below: Crème brûlée, Panna cotta, Spaghetti Ragoût]

Ask for Pino .. the owner a fine Italian who will recommend you great italian food ..Try it - a must in town .. the Best .. dont miss it... warm wishes from Peter Mueller long time friend from 🇨🇭now living in 🇲🇾 and regular visitor to Laos 🇱🇦 and the Villa Opera..

About the most Authentic European restaurant you will find in Asia

Senglao Cafe appears to be a welcoming spot in Vientiane, offering a mix of familiar and local-inspired dishes. My recent visit involved trying their Cacao Shake and Carbonara, and here are my thoughts: The Cacao Shake was a refreshing treat, likely a welcome respite from the Vientiane heat. It probably offered a rich, chocolatey flavor, perfect for a sweet indulgence. Moving on to the Carbonara, this is where Senglao Cafe put a local twist on a classic. While traditionally made with eggs, it seems their version leaned more heavily on the egg itself, which isn't the standard creamy sauce many are accustomed to. However, despite this deviation, it's interesting to note that you found it good. This suggests that Senglao Cafe's interpretation, while different, was still flavorful and enjoyable. Perhaps it offered a richer, more custard-like texture.

Excellent as always. Beautiful garden & ambience Food was delicious. Chef's salad, Senglao burger, scallop truffle pasta & squid ink seafood pasta 😋

This place is a hidden gem in Vientiane. It has tons of character. The American interior style and decoration style from the 80ties and 90ties is just amazing, together with the music it just pulls you into the complex atmosphere. The old theater seats in the exterior garden area are a nice touch! Coffe is great, selection of pastries good too. I'd definitely recommend this one!

Really snazzy place with good fusion food. 🍱 it has space for parking. I loved the yum salmon :)

My family enjoys coming to Senglao -- it's a popular restaurant with locals. The food is good -- my children like the fish and chips and I like the pesto pasta. Lots of variety on the menu, but it seems a little pricey compared to comparable restaurants (to be fair inflation is high right now). They have a great location with some patio dining -- sitting outside is great, it's a good place for a relaxing meal. Good bakery items, ice cream, and coffee available. Senglao shows its colors a few times a year when they host events -- handicraft markets, etc. Worth checking out and we'll happily eat here again.

1. Interior design was really cool and their theme 2. I have ordered several foods and seafood rice was a highlight among them 3. Smoothie was worth for money 4. Coffee did not entertain much 5. Service is okay

This cafe is being introduced by my local Laos friend. Love the concept of the cafe where it is a mixture of the 80’s and 90’s time. Heard that during lunch time and dinner time, it will be very crowded. Was there with my friends at around 2pm. Very nice and peaceful environment. For the food, the pizza and pasta is a must try over there. For the drinks, most of them are very nice. Highly recommend for cafe hopping lovers!

Can watch Lao traditional dance with the background music of smooth bamboo flutes and teadtional bamboo organ. Local foods are tasteful. Recommand " khao poun nun pik" rice noodle with coconut milk soup. Tampura is crispy and fresh. Fish and chicky curry with sticky rice are matching.

We are visiting Vientiane from the US and just found this restaurant as being near to our hotel. Boy what a gem! Food is amazing, simple wonderful. It was first time trying Laotian food and this restaurant made us fall in love with. The Mekong fish is particularly sumptuous! Highly recommend!

We love atmosphere, so lovely. There traditional band play musical and dance, they can also play vietnamese song. Food is fresh, salad is big and sauce is tasty and cheap(70k kip ). Fried fish is so good with fried garlic and sauce. Lap xuong also is signature dish i like. Price s so reasonable, 428k kip for 2. Will be back.

Went for dinner on Monday night. Nice, elegant ambience in an old house set in a large garden. Good service. Air conditioned. Traditional band playing music. Lots of Laotian dishes to choose from. About US$35 for 4 persons. Very reasonable for such a good experience.

This restaurant offers delicious food, but it doesn’t stop there - their service is impressive as well. The staff not only display a positive and friendly attitude, but they’re also incredibly attentive. They promptly refill my glass when the water level drops, and even subtly place a box of tissues on my table the second after I sneeze. Plus, communicating in English here is no issue at all. It’s also conveniently located near the Gate. You can take pictures at sunset, come here to take a rest, then return after dark for a different view.

Great food in an absolutely nice setting. I went against the recommendation and ordered Fish casserole instead of Or Lam, and it was very good. My suggestion is to train their nice stuffs the sequence of services.

A beautiful restaurant set in a private complex. Larger serving size of dishes than most other restaurants in Laos. Good food with great vibe with local music performance for dinner.

Cozy place to have a simple, healthy but delicious lunch. They have a very good dessert and the best ice cream in town. The owner is also very kind.. A place which should not miss in Vientiane...

Ice cream and cakes home made, all natural and tasteful with extreme reasonable prices

A place to visit absolutely! Chocolates and Ice creams are amazing, home made in the state of the art. Good quality and tasty food in a nice garden. Very friendly people.

Special chocolate box for valentine’s day. I love it so much ❤️ highly recommend this place !

Love this spot, and holy moly, some of the most interesting flavors to try here. My all time favorite is Pineapple, Tamarind and Chili. Sounds strange. But wow, you’ll never forget it. My boy likes their simpler flavors too. Today I’m trying honey and ginger and orange chocolate chip!

The best chocolate ice cream in the city! There so many kinds of very interesting flavours, for example tamarind with chilli. And the food is really great as well - you can't find these dishes in Vientiane. It's totally different!

Best ice cream maker in town. Use only local and seasonal fresh fruits for sorbet. Just refurbished his location on ban Phonpapao. Brunch every Sunday.

This bustling restaurant has earned a reputation as a must-visit destination for those wishing to indulge in the vibrant flavours of authentic Lao cuisine. Even during peak hours, the establishment operates with a remarkable efficiency that ensures patrons are seated and served promptly. The attentive staff members, known for their warm hospitality, are always on hand to offer recommendations and cater to diners' needs. The menu is a delightful journey through Laos's culinary treasures, showcasing an impressive array of dishes. From cherished traditional favourites that embody the essence of Lao culture to comforting noodle creations that warm the soul, there is something to satisfy every palate. It’s an ideal spot for tourists keen to immerse themselves in the local flavours and experience a true taste of Laos.

One of the popular restaurants of Vientiane. It was located next to our hotel and the first meal we had at Laos was at this restaurant embracing local food at the earliest. Communication can be a bit of a challenge as english is not known to most of the ones serving but the menu has pictures which you can point out to while ordering. Laotian noodles soup and fried rice was our regular order when we dined here. The lao coffee is avoidable out here and better tried at coffee shops nearby. We met the 3 sisters who were very catering and sweet. Loved the entire vibe of this place and it is a must visit when at Vientiane.

Good cheap food in a place that feels less touristy for being in a pretty touristy part of town. Not fancy. I didn’t love the spring rolls but I liked how they cut them into bite sizes. I asked for spicy and I feel like they didn’t go all the way spicy.

Absolutely excellent. Extensive menu. All classics cooked to perfection. Friendly service. Sumptuous smoothies.

Sat and waited forever before they finally took my order and the food was awful. It was an empty restaurant so not even busy. I ordered Nan cau which I’ve had many times and is a savory dish but they mixed coconut milk and lime juice which made it absolutely disgusting. Plus they were rude and so slow. I still paid even though they served me cold dog food. This place is a trap stay away.

Heard about reputation & good reviews here. But food was not expected. They have both Thai and Laos dishes. Taste of dishes we ordered so very normal, not too bad not too good. A bit salty. Long list menu, many eaters, large house with many tables.

If you are in Vientiane, this place is a must-go. I think i went there like 3 or 4 times during the very short time i stayed in Vientiane. Very nice place for foodie who want to try the Laotian dishes as well as Vietnamese ones. The staffs and all three sisters(aunties i would say) are very friendly. The staff can speak English and mostly understand what you mean so you can tell them if you cannot handle spiciness of spme dishes. Or maybe ask them how it taste in advance. The prices are really reasonble and really worth it given the taste and service. I personally recommend Laotian noodle bowl(it was sooooo good) and rice and beef stir-fry. You can also try other meat dishes and salads if you want to explore more flavors. Be careful with salads since they are mostly quite spicy. Always paired spicy dishes with some fruit shakes, you will love it.

The food was very average for the price. Also, they brought my friend's main course before one of the appetizers ... and didn't think it was an issue until I respectfully pointed it out. Not much atmosphere either. Overall, we were disappointed and will not go back.

The food took so long I had to do take out after waiting an hour for an over priced meal. Music was awful and quality of food does not match price. Way too expensive for average food. Will not return or recommend

Great food and environment Sushi was great and I was surprised how much extras were included Great service and price. Strongly recommend being sushi expert

Older restaurant that has outlived its charm. Nothing special and pricey, but the food is passable. The customer service leaves much to be desired; perhaps the most rude in Laos. So many better places in town it is amazing this restaurant is still open.

The price of the menu is too expensive, the food is average, the serving speed of udon is extremely slow, it takes half an hour, the environment is beautiful, but I don't understand why the experience can't keep up.

I didn't really find this good. Expensive, but fast services. You may want to go to Japantie, close to @Home Club on the way to the Wattay Airport.

The food tastes very good and service is nice. A bit pricey though.

Visited in June 2015. The restaurant is on the 2nd floor of IBeam, opposite to Wat Ong Teu. Comfy relaxing ambience, seems popular among local during lunch hour. Price at the high side. There's set lunch menu, 1 course cost 60k kips, 2 courses 90k kips and 3 course meal at 120k kips, comes with complimentary coffee or tea. We ordered the Tilapia fillet with red wine source and creme brulee from the 2 courses set lunch as well as New Zealand Veal Tenderloin in blueberries sauce (190k kips). The fish was tender, red wine sauce was tasted better than the blueberry sauce. The veal cooked to perfection and very tender, the sweet potato puree was nice and the sauteed mushrooms a bit to the salty side, the blueberry sauce was a bit disappointing. It was not blend in well enough with the veal. The creme brulee was sweet and smooth (if ordered separately from lunch set, it will cost 60k kips). The lunch cost total 280k kips (USD$35 @fx rate of $1=8k kips).

Best French restaurant in Vientiane. Great cheese selection. Many delicious small plates and main courses, fresh, quality ingredients that are well-prepared. Options for vegetarians.

Good food. Good service. Lighting is a bit too dark. Table setting is nice but overall decor is quite uh-oh.

Most of the dishes are excellent

(Translated by Google) The dishes were very good. The fish was very well cooked and had very good flavors. Two negative points: the bread is not good at all and is very soft. For a French restaurant it's average! The chocolate on the profiteroles was not good. It didn't look like real chocolate! Damage (Original) Les plats étaient très bons. Le poisson très bien cuit et de très bonnes saveurs. Deux points négatifs :le pain n'est pas bon du tout et est très mou. Pour un restaurant français c'est moyen ! Le chocolat sur les profiteroles n'était pas bon. Il ne ressemblait pas à du vrai chocolat ! Dommage

(Translated by Google) A menu for Koreans is also available. If you are tired of local food, come here. The price is expensive compared to Lao prices, but you can get a main meal for around 100k. (Original) 한국인을 위한 메뉴판도 준비되어있음. 현지식단에 질렸으면 한번 와봐요. 가격은 라오물가대비 비싸지만 100k 전후에 메인을 먹을수 있어요.

Many foods stalls have many dishes, but the price is not very cheap, not recommended eat seafood here. Suggest to eat sticky rice and grilled fish, papaya salad, sausage.

Vientiane Night Market is a vibrant and lively stretch that runs along the Mekong River—definitely a must-visit while in the city. The market is a long stretch of stalls offering a little bit of everything—from local street food and fresh fruit smoothies to clothes, handmade crafts, bags, souvenirs, and even some electronics and household items. It’s a great spot to take a relaxed evening stroll, soak in the local vibe, and maybe grab a bite while you shop. The food options are mostly simple but tasty, including grilled meat skewers, sticky rice, and other local snacks. Prices are quite affordable and it’s a good place for casual shopping or picking up gifts. It can get crowded, especially after sunset, but that just adds to the lively atmosphere. Overall, it’s a fun and casual experience with something for everyone—whether you’re there to eat, shop, or just people-watch by the riverside.

Vientiane Mekong Night Market is a tourist attraction in Vientiane, the capital of Laos. This night market stretches along the Mekong River and has quite a different atmosphere from what we typically imagine as Southeast Asian night markets. They mostly sell counterfeit brand clothing, various accessories, earrings, and necklaces, with barely any street food stalls. If you're going there specifically to shop, you might be quite disappointed. Personally, if your schedule in Vientiane is tight, I think it's perfectly fine to skip this place

The night market is long and lively, offering clothes, shoes, bags, food, and even a small amusement park. It’s a pleasant place to walk around and enjoy. The market is open every night. You can park either at the temple or along the street.

Meh… not like any of the other night markets we’ve experienced in Laos. Maybe only one stall that was selling handicrafts… otherwise just selling counterfeit western clothes, bags, belts, sunglasses, phone accessories and beauty supplies. The food stalls were few and far between, but there’s a mini amusement park if you’ve got kids. Can totally be skipped

Ok area wouldn't go back. 1st here in 2011 then again in 2024.

The Vientiane Night Market is an absolute must-visit if you're exploring Laos. It’s bustling with energy, sprawling across a vast area with what feels like tens of thousands of stalls. Each section of the market offers something different – from authentic Laotian street food to clothing, daily essentials, and souvenirs. The food section is a particular highlight, showcasing Laotian specialities like laap, a spicy minced meat salad; grilled Mekong river fish; and khao jee, the local version of baguettes stuffed with savoury fillings. The aroma of these dishes fills the air, tempting you to try everything. In the clothing and accessories area, you’ll find a diverse array of styles and textiles – be prepared to haggle here, as prices are often negotiable. It’s all part of the experience, and vendors are usually open to bargaining in good spirits. The night market sits right beside the Mekong River, where you can enjoy views across to Thailand. Interestingly, the Thai side is unlit, giving it a stark contrast to the vibrant and lively atmosphere of the Lao side. Spending a leisurely three hours here feels effortless, as there’s so much to explore and enjoy. The market’s scale and diversity make it easy to lose yourself in the experience, without ever feeling fatigued. Whether you’re a seasoned traveller or a casual visitor, the Vientiane Night Market provides an unforgettable slice of Laotian culture and charm.

We came Le Trio Coffee this morning after a recommendation from a fellow traveller I met in Vang Vieng. I must say that his recommendation was correct and the coffee is superb (thanks Gert!). I had a cold latte (not my usual go to but it is a hot day) and the love of my life had a cold cappuccino. Both coffees were excellent. The coffee shop has footpath seating and tables with fans as well as inside seating. Very cool inside in both temperature and ambience! A big shout out to Jules who provided fantastic service. He was attentive, polite and very helpful. Le Trio serves cake sans pastries but we were after some other breakfast options and Jules provided the menu for Coco & Co, which is the vegan cafe next door. The food was very good. See my separate food review for Coco & Co.

Lao- French coffee. Still best coffee in Vientiane so far. Have not been here since September 2019 but the place has not change at all. Good vibes in the morning. Good coffee with lots of styles for selection. You can smell the coffee in 20m radius from the shop when they have a new roasted coffee beans

Excellent coffee. I had vegan cappuccino and vegan flat white. Oat milk option is available . Highly recommend this coffee shop.

The flavor and taste of an iced americano were just correct. As for iced latte, it would've been better to have it without ice. Many small ice cubes liquefied the milk.

Awesome little coffee shop. The flat white was clearly made with love of coffee 🤎🤎🙏🏻. If you seek good coffee, this is a must visit.

Really is a great cup of pure coffee. You can tell this is a passion and not just a business. I think this really may be the best coffee in Vientiane. (And I have family who own another shop in town)

Good coffee shop with a nice ambient. I had a good conversation about philosophy with the young French-Laotian man who is the nephew of the owner. He took good care of every guest. Unfortunately as soon as he left around lunch time the service got worst. The employees cared less, they are on their smartphones the whole time and you feel like you disturb them if you ask something. This is a pity.

Not a good Pizza at all. The Dough didn't get enough rest and therefore doesn't have a good Taste. The Tomato Sauce tastes like made from concentrate, very boring and the Cheese on my 4 Cheese Pizza was just not enough to develop a delicious mouth feel. As you see in the Pictures, there's a big ring of only Tomato Sauce where more Toppings should be. For 189.000 KIP (06/25) a total ripoff. They disguise themselves as Italian, but don't even know the Word "Quattro Formaggi". What a shame. I would suggest to find another Pizzeria.

Absolutely delighted with my experience at this wonderful hotel serving authentic Pakistani and Indian cuisine. From the moment I stepped in, the ambience felt inviting and homely — clean interiors, subtle traditional decor, and a calm, relaxed vibe that sets the perfect mood for a good meal. The real highlight, beyond the delicious food, was the owner uncle himself. Such a kind-hearted and humble gentleman — he made us feel like guests in his own home. His hospitality, warm smile, and personal attention to every table truly stood out. You can tell he runs the place with passion and pride. A heartfelt thank you for the amazing dinner and experience. Highly recommended to anyone craving flavorful, home-style Pakistani and Indian dishes with a side of genuine hospitality!

This place had generally good reviews and was right next to where we were staying so it was a no brainer to check it out....and I am a big fan of Pizza's so.......... Ordered a chicken pizza and a beef sheesh kebab shawarma, my friend ordered her dish, and we had some drinks, me a beer, her some juice. For me the Kebab was well tasty, nothing amazing but enough to quell the hunger and went down well. The pizza was very nice, well cooked, and exactly what one is looking for in a good pizza - not too stodgy, nice amount of toppings, and tasty. The service was good, friendly and efficient. And there was a good vibe in the restaurant, busy enough for the middle of the day. The price came to about just under 14 Euros, which for the amount we had and the good standard of the food, was pretty decent I think. The food was good, and I'd like to return if ever in town again.

"Hands down, one of the best meals I’ve had in a long time." "Every element on the plate was thoughtfully prepared—amazing!" "The balance of spices is just right. Compliments to the chef!" "Mouthwatering presentation and even better taste!" "It’s clear that a lot of care went into making this—absolutely outstanding!" I had an absolutely wonderful experience at your restaurant. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was warm, inviting, and beautifully put together. The staff was incredibly courteous, attentive, and made me feel truly welcome. As for the food—every dish was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. The ingredients were fresh, the presentation was impressive, and the balance of spices showed true culinary skill. It’s clear that a lot of thought and passion goes into every plate. This place is a gem, and I’ll definitely be recommending it to friends and coming back again soon!

In my opinion, the quality of food has definitely declined since last year. Dishes that I loved are now just average. Also, the service has gotten worse. I noticed that the 'head waiter' who looked after me before wasn't there this week, so maybe that's the reason?

Stumbled upon this place while craving pizza. The food quality simply wasn't fair for the price—we felt completely overcharged for what we received. I'd recommend looking elsewhere.

Our last night in Vientiane, wd went night market shopping near Mekong River Delta thereafter. Surprisingly, there's another Indian restaurant besides it. We chose Pizza Supreme, Egg Fried Rice and Spaghetti with Cheese 🍕 🍝. And we took foot massage thereafter. So, it's all good

Salt and Pepper Restaurant serves a mix of Indian and Middle Eastern dishes in a cozy, welcoming setting. I visited alone for lunch and tried the Chicken Pida—it was flavorful and satisfying. The service was great, and the atmosphere was pleasant. Other tables around me were enjoying classic Indian dishes, which I’ll definitely come back to try next time. Only downside: parking can be a bit tricky.

We wanted to try Indian food with strong spices, but the food we ordered was too bland and not very flavorful. They should add at least more salt when cooking.

First I love Indian and Pakistan food . I highly give great value on them. In that restaurant, I ordered Chicken Biryani and is so disappointed for me. 🥄 Look - So light and lack of ingredients 🥄 Smell - Not enough flavor 🥄 Taste - blend & tasteless even at chicken. ( I only taste just 1 spoon and left immediately, because I don't wanna taste that kind of food ) If you guys open your country's restaurant in another country, please respect your origin taste. People come to you because they need that origin and if you cannot give that value , don't open it.

Very good food, friendly service, cheap price. We had an amazing meal! Definitely would recommend.

I was able to witness the freshness of the food as of 11 am on a Monday morning a goat was butchered (the halal way) right in front of the restaurant. Enjoy your food 🥘 🩸 🐐

I ordered a Mutton Curry. It was not good. The sauce was not a sauce but more a Salsa. A chunky Salsa. The Naan Bread was not at all a Naan. It was more like a Lebonese Bread, not a Pita Bread. I did not expect Pita either. I expected a Naan Bread and this was not. It looked as though it was a frozen bread. But the main thing, other than the food being ordinary, was that to pay 170,000 for a Mutton Curry that turned out to be minute, 4 small pieces of Mutton, if it was Mutton, and a salsa, not a curry sauce. I mean,Curry has Curry ingredients, like Chilli, Cumin, Cardomon, Coriander, maybe Ginger. It is spicy. This was as spicy as a wet rag. If you are going to charge the prices you do you might like to actually have a genuinely quality product

We asked the server to make our dishes medium spicy, but it wasn't spicy at all and the saltiness was too weak, making the food very boring and tasteless.

The best Chilean food in Vientiane! Very authentic tacos and desserts. I enjoy all the items on the menu, including the coffee. The prices are reasonable. Seating is available on both the first and second floors, and there is car parking in front of the restaurant.

Stumbled upon this restaurant while looking for eateries on Google Maps. It had great reviews so we decided to visit. Very happy with our decision. The menu had many enticing options. We ordered the Machan pork sandwich and the Latin Mix platter with pork. Everything was delicious! My cappuccino was perfect. We would recommend a meal here during your stay in Vientiane. I love Lao food but this was a nice break for the palate.

We happened to come on a Tuesday - Taco Tuesday. Hence Taco's was our choice. We were able to mix and match the ingredients, and got 4 different kinds of 🌮. My favorites being the pulled pork and the fish. Prices are very reasonable for the quality, and service super friendly. I'm looking forward to come back and try the Ceviche. Note: on weekdays they are closing at 6pm already.

My favorite restaurant in Vientiane! Great Chilean food and lots of other options. I love the classic completo and the burritos are great too. Don’t miss out on the homemade sweets like alfajores and tres leches cake!

Not the most pleasant staff. Subpar food. The vegan empanadas were not good on their own, but were better with the pico salsa. The lemon matcha tea was pretty good. Tight seating space downstairs. The upstairs is supposedly for reservations. Cool to see such a cafe in Laos, but it needs work.

Loved the vibe here! The music and the flavours transported us back home to a Mexican restaurant in London. The food was absolutely delicious, best Central American food we’ve had in SEA. Staff were very friendly.

I ordered a breakfast burrito, and that was hands down one of the girthiest and most well wrapped burritos I have had. Very fresh wheat wraps encapsulate so much eggs and bacon. It wasn't super greasy, even with the addition of all that bacon. And the 'Bacan' sauce on the side is a perfect accompaniment to the dish. Good coffee here as well. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu

The English Lao owners were so nice, we turned up not knowing they were closed but they still offered to make us fresh pizza, we normally order via food delivery apps, don't be fooled by their humble name they make serious pizzas!!

Quick, great flavors, home made pizza dough, fresh made salads, g Great attention, delicious over all, and also very cheap.

It used to be decent pizza for a reasonable price and friendly service. Now one could only expect the latter as the quality of the food has been degraded.

My wife and I moved into the neighborhood a few months ago, and this is our go-to pizza place. Delicious pizza that's surprisingly cheap compared to other pizza places. Comfortable decor and lovely cats. We've enjoyed the quietness the times we've been here, but would love to see it be busier and poppin'; seems most of the business is done via delivery.

Amazing authentic pizzas here! All totally hand made from scratch, the base is light and crunchy with delicious toppings and real mozzarella, we also had great garlic bread and chicken wings too. Thanks so much to Fohn for an amazing meal. Do visit when you are in the Vientiane area!!

Decent pizzas for a reasonable price. Taste is consistent - I've been here four times and portion matches the price.

Fresh made delicious pizza by Fon. We ate the small pizza (25cm) and they were enough for us. The white wine was also very tasty and everything for an affordable price. Fon and her staff are very friendly and the place is cosy and clean.

Nice
