Vientiane Bistro is one of the thai restaurants listed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The business is registered at 2537 Kensington Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19125; use this page to check its hours, phone number and Google rating before you make the trip. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as laotian restaurant, so it may cover more than the name suggests.
This group covers Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian and other Asian cuisines that are not Chinese, and the etiquette varies by kitchen. Japanese and Korean restaurants often take reservations for dinner and may add a service charge for large groups; Thai and Vietnamese spots are usually walk-in and quick-turnover. Spice levels are frequently adjustable on request at Thai, Indian and Sichuan-adjacent menus, so say if you want it mild or hot. Korean BBQ restaurants typically charge per person for all-you-can-eat service with a time limit, and grills are shared at the table. Vietnamese pho shops post bowl sizes (regular or large) and a plate of herbs, bean sprouts and lime is normal to add yourself. Card and tap-to-pay are widely accepted; cash-only is more common at small family-run counters.
The business lists hours on 2 days of the week. The most common schedule is 12β9 PM. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (267) 703-8199. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. Its website is vientianebistro.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.
Customers rate it 4.6 out of 5 on Google across 195 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded thai restaurants in Philadelphia.
Philadelphia is in Pennsylvania, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. Traffic in Philadelphia peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.

I thought it was a Vietnamese restaurant, but it turned out to be Thai. The food is authentic Thai flavor. The location isn't great, so I didn't dare park my car nearby and had to eat in. So I got it to go.

This place is FIRE! It is under the bridge but itβs safe, the inside of this restaurant is beautiful. The food is incredible. The service is excellent. The cook top notch. The recommendations did not disappoint. Let me put it this way, everything I had tonight was a flavor bomb. The restaurant is a true gem. I do a ton of ratings, have worked in the food industry and with celebrity chefs, well traveled etc etcβ¦.. EAT here!

Love this place so much!!! Theyβre great with allergies especially gluten. They left me a voicemail to confirm what contained gluten in my order that I should steer clear of. I love their Penang curry with crispy tofu! Absolutely delicious and fast delivery!

Iβve been coming here for quite some time now, and I can confidently say the food has always been consistently delicious. I usually order the Kow Piek Sen β a Lao-style handmade rice noodle soup topped with bean sprouts, cilantro, scallions, and crispy fried garlic. Itβs been my go-to favorite for a while. Today, I decided to switch things up and try the Khaopoon King soup, and Iβm so glad I did β it has officially earned a spot among my favorites. Shoutout to Mariah for encouraging me to try something new! The atmosphere is always clean, calm, and inviting. The space is beautifully decorated with real flowers and softly lit candles, which adds such a nice touch. The bathroom is consistently spotless too β and honestly, thatβs usually how you can tell a place takes pride in their food and service! I didnβt get a chance to take a photo of the soup this time, but I did order a papaya salad and had it made extra spicy β just how I like it. Next time I visit, Iβll be sure to update with pictures and a more detailed review. Definitely a hidden gem. π
