It was raining today and we wanted to finally make the drive to JP LaoFood ToGo for the first time and boy were we NOT disappointed.
Food is superb! Customer service is what you expect from an Asian restaurant. The overall establishment is a reasonable size. It’s fast food almost style but the dining area is large and can sit easily 8-10 tables
Pricing was on point & serving size was generous! The side green sauce was delicious. We enjoyed the noodle soup, the Laos sausage meal with sticky rice, and lastly their amazing minced chicken plate.
We left nothing to spare and overall spent under $40 with 3 entree dishes and drinks (ordered on a second receipt)
We don’t get a lot of Laos options here in Charlotte but I’m just happy to know we have one EXCELLENT restaurant.
I also LOVE how they have quick meals to go. We ended up buying a bunch of packed meals to take home with us.
There’s a saying…. If you don’t see the children of the owners in the front area or doing something at the restaurant you might have to ask yourself if it’s really authentic. 😅 Asians are less concerned about how pretty a place is outside but more importantly the value/taste of their overall meal
Grade: A
PS: I wish we had one closer on our side of town but it’s worth the 35 minute drive or if you’re passing by near...
Read moreBeen my fav place for years ! Idk why I never left a review but I sure do tell everyone I know about them ! So happy they are now a restaurant and able to expand as they deserve. Hopefully they use the drive through because babyyyy it’s lit at that point! I always get a Thai tea (no ice so I can have more lol) chicken wings (which I love but I’m picky about veins and bone marrow etc) so I’ve started getting the chicken on the stick and omg yea same bomb flavor just without the veins. With the chicken I get the sticky rice with the green paste.. ugh sooo good so timeless! Love their lomein as well and their fries ( remind me of in ny when I add duck sauce ketchup and hot sauce! Iykyk) If you never had them start with this and you’ll be so satisfied ! Chicken wings are small so keep that in mind .. I just add extra when I like and they gladly adjust. Oh yea and I love that I can just text them and place a order ! I literally copy...
Read moreI am newer to Charlotte and have felt the absence of decent East Asian and Southeast Asian food. I found JP Food To Go a year or so to go and they have gone far to the void. They are situated on the side of V&K Asian Market. V&K is located just north side of I-85 on the west side of the road just passed (or before, depending on your directional approach) thr median. They have a variety of traditional Lao dishes that are made to order. You can also order your spice level by the number of chili peppers added to the dish (for reference, JP's medium = 2 peppers, I would assume adjusted for western palates). V&K is a great place to bide your time while your food cooks as well: get your rice, vegetables, spices, even frozen Lao sausage inside. I have returned time and time again and will continue...
