"Sorry to report there was not much positive about our experience here. Service was awkward. Seemingly sweet older lady who served us insisted on calling my wife honey and had apparent language/communication issues. Main courses brought out immediately after appetizers. She asked for spice levels, and despite both of us asking for minimal heat (1 out of 5, 2 out of 5), it made our mouths numb, more like 4 or 5. We 're familiar with the cuisine and know it can be intense but this was a mistake in how the order was passed on to the cook. On top of that, food quality was badly inconsistent. Nam sod was very tasty and generous, but overly spicy. The extra chili paste overwhelmed everything. A simple chicken satay was dry, maybe reheated. Lao spare ribs were probably also reheated. Seven dry, underseasoned and miniscule ribs some had more fat than meat. Pla Khung had about 5 tiny shrimp, and while the basic flavor was good, it was mouth numbing overly spicy. Just overall disappointing."
