Anyone not giving this place 5/5 is not correct. Don't read their review. This place is awesome.
Best to visit in the day time mind you, but a minor deterrent...
Get the souk guai if ure ballsy with the spicy.
One of the best restaurants.
The Owners son is always drunk and he is often the server on the weekend. He looks drunk and High most of the time. He invites his other drunk friends and they hang out in the small restaurant. Customers don't want to eat at a place where the server is drunk and high. Food is very good.
Lao Thai is a fantastically unique find in Winnipeg and should not be missed by anyone looking for a unique twist on traditional Western Thai food. Ignore the somewhat meager looking exteriors as the food here is excellent. Balance of flavours result in a robust and surprisingly light meal that tickles all the senses. Only caveat is the liberal use of chilis might be a turnoff for some, but do note that the spice level is customizable (from 1 to 5). Do yourself a favour and get some traditional Lao food here!
Will make the drive. Used to be at the end of my street. Still make the drive to the new location, no questions. Best pad thai. Best crab rangoon.
Been eating here for 3 years. Never had any regrets! Food is great but i find it pricey. But all is great! The owner is very nice and the servers. Love this place

Unpretentious and Good. This is a small restaurant. There are two tables and three booths. When I was there it was only half full at lunch. There was a large bucket in the middle of the floor half full of water. The fact that the restaurant is so small really makes the bucket stand out. Nothing fancy about the decor.
You pick up a menu before seating yourself. The menu gives a description of the ingredients involved and also provides a photo of the menu items. There was a flat screen tv on the wall, which is a nice touch. Near as I can tell, the place is run by a mother/son team. They were extremely friendly.
Our food took a few minutes to prepare. I tried the souk gai with chicken. You select your own spice level from 1 to 4. I picked 3...I should have gone with 2, it was very spicy, but oh so good. There were a lot of good sized chunks of chicken in the soup. It also comes with rice. If you run out of rice, they offer to provide more, free of charge. It is a large bowl. It was all I needed to fill up for lunch.
I would not hesitate to go back to this place.
Delicious!. We came across this place while looking for a Thai restaurant that was open for lunch on Saturday. I'm glad we came here, it was delicious! The restaurant itself is very small, but that didn't matter at all. I enjoyed the calamari and the Lao Pad Thai, and the green curry was alright, but it was the Gang Som Hyet (#18) that stole the show. I would go back just for that. I recommend you try eating here for delicious Thai cuisine.
Never fails!. I love Lao Thai! Their boneless chicken with fried rice is my absolute favourite! The chicken is so crispy and the fried rice is pretty good itself! I've also tried their ham nam wraps, which were delicious! The owners are super friendly and service is great! I've never had them deliver but seriously, $5 for city-wide delivery!? Wow.
Great place and great ppl.. I've been eating here for quiet sometimes and never been let down... They have a new menu and I love the new #18 and #28 those mushroom are soo good!!! And of course my usuall #4 and #34... Alil sad to see some of my other items from the old menu go but bright side for those that can't make it to the northend. They deliver city-wide through Skipthedish.ca
Excellent food. As others have stated, place is small but the food is huge on flavour. My new favourite place. The stuffed crab app is delicious, same with the lemongrass marinated beef jerky. I also hade the fried chicken and rice, and the other reviewer is right, it is really good. I'm going to try some soups for lunch next time. Don't be thrown off because of we're its located, definite a must try place in Winnipeg.
Had the chicken fried rice and calamari. The chicken was nice and cripsy on the outside, juicy on the inside. Calamari was lightly breaded.
Really amazing place!! Definitly a must try Thai place. Personally, I think this beats all the other Thai places I've been to. Seriously, you need to give this place just one chance. I ordered the Pad Thai and the Coconut Curry (#14 on menu) and it tasted really, really good! The chicken was very well done and has flavour to it as well!! The Pad Thai has peanuts on it, which I generally don't like on my food, and the Curry had bamboo in it, which again I generally do not like; but these two things were easy to forget about because the dishes themselves were simply delicious!! It is quite a small place but the woman who was running it was very, very kind and sweet and was amazing with her service, as she was serving while cookin and taking the orders of the customers. This had a bit of a wait time for the food BUT regardless, hot damn, wait worth the wait!! Definitrly try this place out!!😋😋👌🏼👌🏼
This place has some of the best thai I have ever eaten. We went here with a large group of friends who pretty much filled up the entire small restaurant. The owner and his wife were amazing cooks and their young daughter was there helping out her parents. She was so cute and so fun so we all tipped her (as well as her parents well). We spoke to the owner and he told us that he opened the restaurant so his kids could have a good life. The restaurant is filled with family photos and you can see that they really love their kids. They made us feel welcome and as though we were part of the family for the night. They even stayed open late just for us. I can't wait to go back here again because it truly was one of the best restaurant experiences I've had in a while.
Fantastic! Top 3 in chicken fried rice I have ever tasted. Must try.
The food here is authentic, fresh and SO good! One of the very best Thai restaurants in the city. Exceptional soups and THE BEST pad thai you will ever taste!
This family run business is friendly and great for accommodating groups or take out. They are opening another location in Toronto off Queen St.
You will not be disappointed! Eat in, take out, or order for delivery, or through "Skip the dishes".
I ❤️ this North End gem. It’s the restaurant you know only exists either because you live in the area or you’re friend took you there. It is small with only about six tables (3 large booths). Food is a combination of Laotian and Thai cuisine. I’ve had the Pad Thai, Green Curry Soup, Lemon Grass Soup, Tofu cold salad rolls...all fabulous. Service is great. If you’re a Thai Foodie...you must try.
This place is your future favorite Loation & Thai food restaurant. Think "best kept secret" meets "hole in the wall." The owner will remember you from visit to visit. He'll remember your favorites. Lunch time is basically always regulars coming back for more. Flavorful, without being overly salty or spicy. Fresh spices and herbs. If you're lucky enough to get a seat at one of the 5 tables, you're in luck. They also do Skip The Dishes, but only when they're not too busy.
This place has the best pad Thai in the city hands down. I don’t go anywhere else for pad Thai. Also their fried chicken and rice #23 on the menu is delicious. Sad they don’t deliver and it’s kinda far to travel but worth it. The owner is very friendly. 6/5.
