Every dish at Manda de Laos begins in a family kitchen. The recipes travel from grandmothers to daughters, from the riverbanks of Luang Prabang straight to our table. We cook the way Laotian families have cooked for generations, with patience, herbs picked at dawn, and sticky rice steamed in bamboo baskets passed down through the years.
We opened these doors in 2015 to share that same kitchen with visitors from around the world, and in the decade since, more than 500,000 guests have pulled up a chair. The house itself has stayed in the family for generations, tucked behind Luang Prabang's main street just steps from the Night Market.
Make sure to reserve the one and only sofa table, offering a full immersive view of the UNESCO-classified lily pond.

Luang Prabang Tasting Menu
Manda de Laos sits beside three lotus ponds protected under Luang Prabang's UNESCO World Heritage status since 1995. Our dining terraces offer an intimate connection with this remarkable heritage setting.
Discover the Restaurant
The bar is inspired by the flavours of Laos: house-infused Lao Lao rice whisky, lemongrass, tamarind, and seasonal ingredients gathered from the garden. Our bartenders steep Lao Lao whisky and rum for weeks with herbs and fruits picked just a few steps away, then create each cocktail around the character of each infusion.
The Lao Parinha is bright, citrus-forward, and grounded in local rice whisky — the kind of drink guests often order twice. Enjoy it on the terrace beside our UNESCO-classified lotus ponds, as the light softens, the lanterns begin to glow, and evening settles over the garden. Come early for a seat close to the water, or later, when the air still carries the scent of lemongrass and the kitchen fires are quietly burning. Either way, the bar keeps pouring long after dark.
