I love Thai food and have tried nearly every Thai restaurant in HB. Lawa stands out because their cooking is *homemade* and full of flavor, not bland or watered down flavor wise.
Yellow Curry was interesting. I've never had bell peppers in my Thai yellow curry before, but it was a pleasant surprise since I love veggies. The only not great was the chicken meat. It didn't taste like real chicken or high quality so I'll be skipping chicken as my protein next time. Roti was 👍
Also ordered the Pad See Ew with tofu. I liked that they used Chinese broccoli (and not cheap regular broccoli) and it, along with the carrots, appeared to be grilled prior to cooking with the noodle, which added more flavor. The tofu was actually the best part because it wasn't pre-made fried tofu. See my pics. I enjoyed it and I'm not a big tofu fanatic.
Overall, pad see ew was good enough and different than how the other local Thai restaurants make it so I'll likely be trying other dishes from Lawa Thai soon.

Food is good. Cashew nut chicken has so much flavor. The Pad Thai though is so freaking spicy when we didnt order it spicy. The spice drowns out any of tyeother flavor. Their spice level varies so much thats the only bummer. If iask for mild it's still super hot. Im not exaggerating either becaue i love spice and im not sensitive to it.
