Lat14 Asian Eatery - Golden Valley

Vegetarian options: There are a few dishes that can be made vegetarian or vegan (just ask for no fish sauce).

The service and food were excellent. Although it was a bit on the pricey side, we really enjoyed our experience. The one downside was the 5% health and wellness charge added to the bill. We didn't think it was fair for us to cover the restaurant's health benefits, so we decided to tip 15%. If the restaurant wants to offer healthcare, they should absorb the cost and simply raise their prices instead.

The food was exceptionally well-prepared, with a strong focus on presentation. The drinks were beautifully crafted but didn't quite match up in taste. We began our meal with a delightful appetizer of crispy fried tofu glazed with a hoisin-based sauce, which had just the right amount of chili heat to awaken the palate without overpowering the other flavors. For my main course, I enjoyed a vegetarian stir-fried jackfruit curry that was not only beautifully made but also thoughtfully presented, featuring fried basil leaves and crispy rice noodles. For dessert, we indulged in a coconut ice cream topped with chocolate chips, shards of caramel, and caramelized pineapple, which was truly exceptional. The service was attentive and prompt without being intrusive. Our total bill came to $116 for two people, and we left feeling completely satisfied and with a five-star smile on our faces.

Was a 30 min wait at 7:30pm on a Tuesday! Thankfully full service at the bar. Drinks were crazy and expensive, not impressed with what I ordered either. Food was delicious however and FAST! Service was personable.Food: 5/5

Everything we ordered was completely and wonderfully delicious! The drinks, the appetizer, the entrees... wow!!! An additional bonus was our server named Trace. Pleasant, professional, engaging. Trace had an excitement for the food being served and it showed. It matched our excitement and joy as the dishes came out and our minds were blown away by the flavors that were presented. Generous portions as well. Lat 14, get ready! We will be back!Parking: Just needed to be patient.
