Mekong Lao & Thai Cuisine

The Mekong River flows along the border between Laos and Thailand. It is a vital resource for both countries. Whether it’s fishing, fresh water for agriculture, or as a transportation highway for goods and services, the Mekong River has been an important part of the life of both the Lao and Thai people throughout history. Just as the Mekong is a powerful symbol for both the people’s of Laos and Thailand, it became our symbol to represent our cooking style when we chose to name our restaurant Mekong Lao and Thai Cuisine. We first opened our doors in March of 2016 and since the very first customer, we’ve worked hard to serve the real taste of Lao and Thai food in our restaurant. Our chefs are Lao and Thai themselves, so you can be sure that our dishes are as authentic as any dish served in their homeland. Be sure to come by and experience all the bold oriental flavors that we work so hard to replicate. We know you won’t be disappointed! We do not take shortcuts, but take pride in preparing our dishes using only the freshest ingredients, which is often more costly and time consuming but we’re sure you will agree it’s worth it! Fast food is not our goal. You don’t have to go all the way to the motherland to experience the best Lao and Thai dishes; we will be happy to prepare them right here in San Diego.
