Loved the food from this place! The Tom Kha Soup arrived warm and with an actual soup spoon to eat it with. So much flavor. The Edamame was a decent portion for the price and salted. The Gyoza were crispy outside, tender inside and came with a shockingly good dipping sauce. Highly recommend all 3 dishes and the restaurant overall!

I tried the duck pho and thai tea, the pho was so flavorful i almost regretted adding sauces to it. It was my first time trying duck and i'm very satisfied! Also a large portion, it'll probably last me a couple days. The thai tea was yummy too, perfect flavor.

My first time ordering from this restaurant. I will DEFINITELY order again and again!! The food came hot and fresh !! It's VERY delicious!! The Special fried rice w/shrimp and wings was really tasty!! Wings were crisp on the outside and extra juicy on the inside!! The Tom Kha soup warmed my soul; I LOVE the coconut flavor!! The broccoli (I chose beef as my protein) was really tasty and the veggies still had a nice bite to them (not soggy)! I give this a 10/10, hands down!! THANK YOU!!!

The Tom Kha Soup was incredible - flavorful, vibrant and comforting. Large soups come with rice so I didnt need to order extra, but it complemented the soup well. Pickup experience was smooth and fast, and the service was friendly. Will return for sure!

Hot Cafe never fails to deliver the best Lao food in the area with authentic flavors. It has been around since I was in diapers and my family has always came here when we didn't feel like cooking or are shopping in the area. Accessible and great portions for the price point. You can't get a lot of the menu items anywhere else, so they are truly a gem for those who love Lao food! Now that I'm an adult, I often order during my work lunch breaks because the meal beats fast food any day! Will always be a regular and support for years to come!
I've been sharing Lao dishes with my Hispanic in-laws and their favorites are Spicy Beef Salad (Num Touk) ,Larb Salad , Chicken Basil Fried Rice, Sticky Rice , and the Pad Thai.
My favorites are the Lao Papaya Salad, Khao Piak, Gaeng Nor Mai, and Mok Pha.
Their Fresh Sugarcane Juice is the best! Truly refreshing and remind me of the Lao New Year days!
