Love the Kao Soi, the wings, the fried brussels - really everything we ordered was delicious - as always!! Pig & Khao is a go-to for me. Every time I bring friends here they are always impressed by how good it is, and what good a value! This is a true neighborhood gem!!

Hubs and I shared the family meal, he got the cocktail flight and I got the red wine flight. Food was fantastic, lots of options and can be heavy or lighter depending on the food you get. We did get the duck for our large plate, with a $5 upcharge per person but it was worth it. Only grievance was we already paid and my husband got his last cocktail, so the timing was a little off. But the restaurant was extremely busy. Overall would def go back, food was delicious.

Sitting at the chef's counter was great! So glad that the music was at a lower level than the last two times I was in- made my experience much more enjoyable. Got the chili pan mee and turon- both excellent. Hostess and server were friendly and attentive. Looking forward to coming back!
