I went to this place because I have weekdays off and I wanted to see if this taste like gai yang. I was not disappointed. I had the two leg quarters on sticky rice. The chicken was moist and delicious. The sauce that comes with the chicken is sweet and spicy but good. Gai yang sauce is more on the sweet side. The service was fast and the restaurant is a to go place. I enjoyed the food and hope that you will try it out.I went back and tried the 5 honey chicken. I love the kai ping or gai yang better. I talked to the owner and he told me that this is Laotian street food. I wish they opened on weekends, but I understand that people have to rest. The only ping kai in ABQ. This is my go to place for chicken. This is a take out only place.

If you live close by, you forgot your lunch, and you want something cheap, this might fit the bill. It's close, it's cheap, and it's not offensive. I would not, however, travel any distance to eat here. This is more like you have a family that has figured out a formula that they can pull off in a semi-restaurant kitchen, and that they are selling as much as possible of. The problem is that the formula demands no real effort or attention. The food here is about as bland as you can get--which for Lao food is kind of strange/shocking. No heat, no spices, no contrasts, nothing--and this includes the sauces which are uncannily bland. The chicken is overcooked (a pretty common problem) and unseasoned, the sticky rice doesn't achieve the oddly satisfying gummy quality it's supposed to have, the fried rice would make Uncle Roger lift his leg from his chair, and the broccoli was, well, steamed broccoli (with nothing added--hot even seasoning). So the result is a big plate of bland/blah. So why three stars instead of two or one? Well, it's certainly not offensive or even bad. And the owner is friendly in a way you want more people to be. It's also, by today's standards, dirt cheap. The problem is just that, despite the cheapness, this is pretty unsatisfying other than a means of not being hungry.

Might be my new favorite place! Prices are good ($7.95 for the boneless honey chicken, rice, and broccoli) and it was enough for 3 meals. My coworker is the one that brought me lunch and also got me the Thai iced tea and the mango with sticky rice. Everything tasted and smelled good. My coworker got the fried rice and got a huge styrofoam container full. Only downside is that they're not open for dinner. 2024 #44

I've stopped here a couple of times, believing that they were still open at 3 PM. They weren't open. Apparently they close at 2 PM or when they run out of chicken. I had forgotten about the place until it was mentioned on Reddit. Today, I went at 11 AM; opening time. There was already a line forming. I got lemon grass chicken with noodles. Partner got honey chicken with rice. Both are delicious! I didn't taste the lemon grass. No matter, it's delicious. The honey chicken was sliced. I liked it the best. Noodles and rice are very tasty too. The portions are huge; it's a cheap meal. The sauce doesn't add any thing for me as it's just hot. This is take-out only. Food comes quick. Owner is friendly. Glad I went! A true hole in the wall gem.

This place is take out only. First off it's super authentic, very reasonably priced and very fast. The owners are the ones taking care of orders and cooking. It's always very busy when you go in and usually sells out by noon. You have to order fast because it's so delicious. You get a lot of food for the price you pay. There's a lot of options for food allergies.

I walked by this place on a discovery walk to see what places were close by to my new office. I have gone in here twice now and have been pleasantly surprised each time. Food here is mostly a first come, first served in terms of options, but everything I have tried is delicious. Service is quick and pretty much everything is to go, making it a very fast easy lunch stop if you forgot lunch, need something fast, or just want to try something fresh/new. There are tables here, but they don't seem to be used or to really do indoor dining. Highly recommend and get there on the earlier side if you want options!

Updated review: Friday November 3, 2023Finally able to visit this place. I asked the staff and she confirmed their hours are 10am-2pm so Yelp hours are wrong. As for the food, I can't review it because I'm vegetarian but my friends really enjoyed the food and said it was delicious. The store is small and offers to go orders only, no dine in at this time. The service was extremely quick, we paid and by the time we stepped aside for the next customer, our order was ready. ----Wednesday November 1, 2023Updated hours on Yelp from a week ago says they're open until 5pm. I stopped by at 2:20pm today and doors were closed and the inside were full of boxes. I'm starting to doubt this place is still open. Apparently on Google it's 10am-2pm. So they need to get that updated on here. It's frustrating when the hours are unclear and business hours aren't followed. Review will be updated if I ever manage to actually visit this place.

Great quick service! The food is super tasty and they make it so quick! We went in for a quick lunch and learned they weren't offering inside seating, which was disappointing, but we came back to the office and enjoyed it! The store is a little old and the ambience isn't really built for inside seating anyway, so we really didn't lose out on much. I got the lemongrass chicken with sticky rice and it was so tasty and was cooked very well! The chili sauce it came with really cleared my sinuses but I couldn't stop eating it. Great experience!

Good lunch place. Get there early because they do run out of certain dishes. Great sticky rice and chicken. Also, great chicken noodle soup. It's a small spot. Take out only but fast. No indoor seating since Covid.
