food is always super good here! a friend of mine had recommended this spot to me since she knew the family that owns it, I've had the pork belly recommended by her and the Chicken and rice plate. Both are amazing! I would frequent here after the gym when I'd go to GB3. Super fast and super kind people. The place can be pretty busy sometimes but I'm always helped in a timely manner.

Based on this dish, I love coming here because this feeds two people. I don't live in the area but when I am, I would come here. I highly recommend this place. I would like to try other things to see if they are good with other things. On this visit I also ordered the vegetable spring roll. It was just lettuce, cabbage, and carrots. You really can't mess that up. The prices are fair here. The atmosphere is clean. I would recommend this place to everyone.

Known for its Lao/thai food, the crispy pork belly is a hit here! The belly has a nice crispy crunch to the skin and the ratio from fat to lean meat is good. You get some fattiness and the lean meat so it's not a full on chicharron. You dip the belly into the hot sauce and eat it with sticky rice. This a great combo! They offer a variety of other dishes as well. The chicken thighs are highly recommended along with that sauce dip. The dip itself has a nice control spiciness that numbles a little but keeps you wanting to eat more of it. Service can be crazy and should be fixed. It seems like a mad dash to just order food at the register.

Wanted Thai boat so decide to try LA Kitchen#2 since LA Kitchen #1 has been very salty lately. The service was fast and friendly. We decided to order Thai boat, salmon laab and sticky rice with fried chicken for my son. Salmon laab was good and I would recommend that to anyone. The place is kept clean and has alot more room than the first place.

First time doing today and it was amazing! 10/10. I got the crispy pork belly and sticky rice. Whatever that sauce is that they give. I need to ask for 3 next time. I dipped my rice and pork belly in it. So good! Definitely will be a repeat customer!

We came here for lunch after I found them online. The restaurant is small and casual. We ordered at the counter, then sat down. The water, utensils & To Go containers were self-serve. We had the Fried Pork Belly & Sticky Rice ($16.99), Kaopoon Special w/Pork Belly ($16.99), Namkao ($8.99) & Kaotom - Sesame Balls ($6.00). Everything was authentic & delicious, except for the sesame balls! They were a bit greasy and not crunchy and chewy. That being said, the food portions were generous! The food also came out quickly. The Staff was also friendly. They also serve Chinese food. We would definitely return whenever we're back in town. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for authentic and yummy Laotian food!

LA Kitchen ( pronounce as Lah kitchen ) not like the well known abbreviations of Los Angeles city L.A . Say it like La La La Kitchen. My first time here with bestie treating me to lunch . Ample parking space shared with other local businesses in the area. Mainly a take out establishment , no wait staff , order / pay for food at the counter . Should you want to dine in there are seatings available at first come first serve basis. Self service station for plates and utensils. I normally would not order curry at restaurants, since hubby wanted to try , we opted for #11 red chicken curry w/ steam rice. I am a changed person now , definitely will try this dish again when I am in town . Such a delicious meal... Crispy pork belly , oohhh crispy, tasty of fat dripping down my lips . Be sure to dip in the sauce provided makes for a delicious finger licking morsels. The only dish I didn't care for was the combination pad thai . Flavors were great , I just think next go around stick to one type of protein. I didn't expect much from the employees ,since it is a take out establishment. I was pleasantly surprised each and every one of the employees I encountered were friendly , they welcomed us in with pleasantry greetings . We were most impressed by this one particular young lady Lana .. she outshined the rest by her friendly demeanor & her knowledge of the menu . She recommended some of the dishes to try , the beef lab, lao sausage & sticky rice , papaya salad all were great choices. Lana's eagerness in helping to gather some plates and utensils while we seated were much appreciated . Sometimes later she stop by to check in on us, provided more napkins and also to clear some of our dirty plates . Definitely visiting again when I am in the area .

My wife and I were visiting her grandmother at a nearby assisted living facility when hunger struck as we were leaving. Naturally, I turned to Yelp to find a new restaurant to try. I tend to prefer mom-and-pop places, and this one didn't disappoint. Though I don't know the full backstory, it had all the hallmarks of a great local spot. The service was good, the food was delicious, and the lady who greeted us at the register was adorable and very sweet. Wanting to expand my culinary horizons, I decided to try the crispy pork with sticky rice and an order of spicy beef larb. I had never had larb before, so I looked up a description: "Larb Gai is a traditional dish from Thailand and Laos; it's a meat salad typically made with ground chicken or pork and flavored with lime, garlic, chili peppers, palm sugar, fish sauce, and rice powder. It's an explosion of flavor with spicy, sour, sweet, and salty notes in each bite." I went with the beef larb, opting for the "spicy" level, one of five levels they offer (mild, medium, spicy, hot, extra hot). To my surprise, the "spicy" was a bit hotter than I expected, but still really good. The flavor was different from what I'm used to, but I had no problem finishing it. I'd like to order it again now that I know what to expect, so I can fully appreciate the abundance of goodness in this dish. The crispy pork with sticky rice came with a flavorful sauce that had a nice spicy kick. It tasted like it had a lot of garlic and ginger, but I couldn't quite pinpoint it--just know it was delicious. Overall, I was very happy with the food. The staff was friendly, the place was clean, and the wait time was maybe eight minutes--pretty fast for freshly prepared food. I have no complaints. If you haven't tried this place, I'd encourage you to give it a shot. It's the kind of restaurant I'd love to visit with a group, so we can order different dishes and sample a bit of everything. Loved it!
