The place is not as popular as the name suggest. The place is difficult to find, staff did take good care of you, but not genuine service! Wouldn't recommend this to others. More

We had pre-booked a table for 8 on the riverbank. On arrival table was reserved for us and nicely set. Soft lighting with the riverside backdrop created a very nice atmosphere. To save the bother of choice we had previously asked management to provide us with a set menu which was attended to. We had complimentary canapes, 3 entrees, 3... More

Ate extremely well! A superb mixture of Loatian and Fusion cuisine. The Mussamam bufallo cheek curry and the Laos spicy&sour fish soup just exquisite. Reasonable prices. Outstanding service. Beats what most hotels have to offer. More

We ate dinner on the terrace and it was beautifully peaceful. The service was extremely attentive and our dinner delicious. The cocktails need a little bit of work! My caipiroska was disappointing but the rest of the meal was perfect. One of our best meals in Luang Prabang. More

What can I say! This may be the best restaurant in Laos, certainly in Luang Prabang! I have eaten at The Apsara many times during my annual visits to Luang Prabang over the last 6 years and always been very impressed. Few are the places where you savor every bite and walkaway remembering dishes for years. This is one of... More

We loved every dish we had - Ohr suht, Lao tasting menu, buffalo sausage, and pear dessert. The staff were super friendly and the setting is perfect. You can sit indoors, outside on the terrace or across the street looking over the river. More
