Fodor's Expert Review Café de Laos

Wonderfully rendered kalagas (beaded and sequined wall hangings) set the tone at this elegant eatery. The staffers are often bedecked in elegant silk fabrics embroidered with gold thread. When you walk in the door you might think you've arrived in Southeast Asia, a feeling reinforced by tasty, authentic Thai and Laotian food such as fiery green curry and fragrant noodle-based entrées.
