I am originally from the Dallas/Ft-Worth area where we have a very large lao american community and many options for lao kitchen. this is one of my favorite restaurants to go when I feel like homesick. the kow piek tastes just like my mother makes it, a hot, hearty, comforting broth rich with tapioca noodles and cuts of huh. the gurkensalat is spicy and refreshing like my brother. the savanh ruck is thin and full of umami, and with sticky rice, makes the perfect snack or appetizer. I love how when it comes to their Laos menu, they do not try to water the taste to delight western palate. for me it tastes like home and that is what I love about this restaurant

Absolutely fantastic food, like truly great. At first glance at the menu, it might seem like this place does slightly-different Thai food, and indeed there is expected overlap between Laotian cuisine and Thai food. But this place is quite the step up from a Thai takeout joint, and that comparison isn't fair anyway. All the food we had was straight up wonderful, and as far as I could tell the food was all scratch made. The sausages? Perfect, and made in-house. The Tom Yum
Visited today 05-16-2021. 1st visit. I 'll be back. Cute place. Street parking was readily available on a Sunday afternoon. We were the only patrons dining in in the whole place. (Which I actually like, it 's almost like private dining) Several people came in out for takeout orders though. The fried rice was good. I didnt try the egg rolls bc they have pork. the meatballs(all beef) had a 'different ' texture. Still, good but I wouldn 't order them again. Although, the
Authentic Lao food! I?ve been here a few times for dinner and love their Lao sausage, nam khao, and papaya salad. This is definitely one of my go-to places in Baltimore if I don?t want to cook dinner. Parking can difficult because it?s street parking, but I haven?t had to spend more than 5 min looking for a spot yet. Book a table now
Food is delicious. Tried it after seeing this place on best places to eat in Baltimore. Fresh, hot and well made. Food came out quick egg rolls came out at the same time as the food. The coffee was only warm instead of hot. Service from the waitress was slow. Highly recommend if you have a little bit of time.
Nice meal here! The pad se ewe was just okay maybe the noodles were a little undercooked? but the vegan massaman curry was good. And I love their selection of vegetarian and vegan choices, and the mango sticky rice.Vegetarian options: Several options under the vegan and vegetarian section.
Charming Elephant is really charming. The happy hour menu is great. Thai tea shots are really good definitely try them. The items we tried are awesome. I would definitely go back. I wish they were generous with rice and cabbage ????. I highly recommend this place.
