This is one of our favorite restaurants. It is Laotian- Asian fusion. Delicious food! It's about a 12 minute walk or 4 minute drive. They do not take reservations. When you walk in, immediately find the clipboard hanging on the wall right inside the door and write your name on it. If you are really hungry, and it is packed, we learned that you can ask to eat at the bar!
