Khoua Vientiane

Missed having warm hearty Asian food after traveling out of Asia for our 2 weeks trip to Europe. This place certainly satisfied our craving and warmed us up during a rainy day. The owners were very friendly. We had the Tom Yam soup with Fish and the chicken fried rice. Large portion was quite a lot for 2 people we should have got medium unless you have big appetites. Their home made chilli was spicy and very tasty too.

You know the food is gonna be lit when the restaurant is in a random street side alley. We got the daily special curry and it was hitting the spot. Everything works well together. Also the owner is very friendly and likes to joke around - he also gave us recommendations on tourist places to visit! Highly recommend this spot for all Thai food enjoyers

*WARNING: HAD BUGS IN THEIR BEEF NOODLE SOUP!*

We were craving for asian food and decided to drop by this restaurant but were fooled by the fake reviews on this restaurant.

Restaurant is unhygienic, food was overpriced and disappointing, waiter/waitresses’ (I suppose are the owners of the restaurant) attitude was horrendous.

We ordered the beef pho noodle soup and chicken fried rice. Chicken fried rice was bland, beef pho noodle soup tasted more like a bland thai boat noodle soup instead of pho.

While eating the beef noodle soup, we noticed a couple bugs inside and soon realized there were more inside (at least 5 in there). When we raised this to the owner, instead of apologizing, they kept denying and insisted that it’s the broth scum from the beef bone even though we had photos of the bugs showing the legs.

They eventually refunded us the money but did not extend an apology to us at all. Would give them a negative review if I could.

DO NOT COME HERE!

Love it!!! So good especially during winter. The people who workings also very nice :)
For asian like me, the portion is so big and its wort it hehe.
I went here during lunch time and luckily we got the seat. Thank you

Small place but amazing authentic Thai food.
The moment you step in you absorb all the familiar smells from the far east.
Authentic fresh products , nice portions and very helpful and smiling staff.
On the other side there was no table service but the moment you get your order you forget all about it

Shortlisted this thai place amongst the many others while looking for something spicy to be had for dinner.

🍲 the Tom yum Kung was good, very authentic and was a properly portion serving, 6 fresh prawns in total

🦆 the sauce for the crispy duck was decent, serving was a bit too little imo for the price paid

🥟 the wantan was okay, too deep fried and didn’t give off enough flavours despite it containing chicken and shrimp

🍚 the fried rice was the best dish of the night, saw this off the adjacent table and gotten it - very flavourful and had a generous portion of chicken meat to go along with

At 78.50 CHF, it was a little pricey - but still a good place to have some Asian food for a change.

I have loved the food here since I had been a student. Affordable price with excellent food and generous portion. And of course so friendly service. Highly recommended.

Tiny cosy restaurant... The owners are so nice.
The dishes were authentic with the best tatses of Laos Thailand and Vietnam
Would sure love to go there again
Hope you don't mind the toilet room is through the kitchen. As said... I love authentic!
