Pho Lao Vieng — Restaurant in Fresno

Small establishment. Very friendly and accommodating staff. I came here with a colleague. He and his friend ordered two separate dishes of beef laap (larb), one cooked, one raw. Very large serving. If paired with 1 side of sticky rice, 1 order of laap is enough for 3 people. My colleague also order their chicken wings. I didn’t try it but it appeared OK. I ordered Khao Piak Lao. I’m not sure if there is pork base broth option available as well. My order came out chicken based broth with strips of chicken. Initial tasting of broth alone was nice. First piece of chicken was nice and tender but all other pieces were a bit tough. I didn’t enjoy the noodles because it was not fresh (or slimy). After a few spoons of the broth, I wasn’t able to enjoy it anymore. I would like to come back eventually to try the other menu items. This place is good for what it is. The prices are reasonable and complimentary water is bottled. I will wait for my second experience before...

The service was great, server was patient in answering questions about dishes. They serve water bottles instead of water cups. We weren't charged for the water bottles. Prices are similar to other Laotian/Thai restaurants, however portions are much bigger. Of the dishes we ordered, my favorite was the pork belly and least favorite was the Tom Moua (papaya with noodles, veggies, shrimp). Pad thai was on the wet side but pleasantly good. The raw lab comes bitter or sour, we got sour which we prefer. We were able to pack a lot of food home since portions were big. Restrooms were clean and tidy. AC isn't the best but that's typical for good Lao/Thai places. Their hours of operation are not accurate, online and on the door says they close at 8pm but when you call they say 7pm and once we came on a Wednesday after 7pm they were closed. They take card payments. We will be...

Earlier this morning on 08/08/2022, It was my Husband and I first time coming here to eat lunch with our kids. The first thing, the nice owner did was provided us free water bottles and caprisun for our kids. I admired and respect that. Most Pho restaurants, let alone any restaurant for that matter don't even do that, so it was very generous to see that . We ordered Pho D, Beef Jerky with a side of sticky rice, Thai Ice Coffee, and Eggrolls all under a total of 46 dollars. All of our foods came to us in less than 5 minutes and it was very fresh and Delicious! The prices are reasonable for the quality of their dishes. In my experience, I do recommend this place. We had a very nice time eating here . Definitely will come...
