My husband and I have had a couple of Laotian food dinner. Had enough of sticky rice and wanted to eat some meat for a change. Lao Lao Garden serves BBQ with various kinds of meat plus a soup base at the bottom of the pot for vegetables. Something different for a change. Meat quality is not the best but... More

Did the BBQ which was great, the food fresh and tasty but the hot coals in the middle of the table raised the temperature to about 40 degrees, lucky for beer Lao to quench the thirst Beware the complimentary whiskey shot on arrival, it's a strong one More

Lao Lao Garden is a fun bar and restaurant that has the appropriate slogan “Drink like a fish for the price of water.” We have been there several times during our January visits to Luang Prabang. While there is a bar, go right up the stairs to the large open, multi-leveled terraced area that goes up Mount Phousi. In the... More

Nice outdoor setting but the food was nothing special and the service was poor. There are much nicer places in the town to eat where you are made to feel more welcome. I guess if you are there just to drink buckets then it would be fine! More

Lao Lao Garden is a pretty popular watering hole in Luang Prabang, but rightfully so. The back area is big, open-air, multi-leveled terrace with lots of tables. There's even a little campfire in the center where that you can sit around. When it's busy, it can be a nice way to meet some new people. They also have some great... More

The BBQ was nice to do, but the food itself was not too exciting. It's a mixture between Raclette (grilling the meat) and Fondue (cooking the veggies in broth). The peanut sauce was very tasty, other spices provided only garlic and chili. Rather boring. More
