C.R. Noodle House Lao & Thai Restaurant

"Got the appetizer sampler, the shrimp in a blanket and the pork dumplings are to die for, we also had the seafood clay pot and pork belly with Chinese broccoli. The food is amazing that atmosphere is warm and inviting definitely a must try place. Also there is Boba to enjoy to cool off if you're brave and get you're food hot."

"I remember watching a hilarious video of a Thai chef’s reaction to Gordon Ramsey’s take on pad thai - he hated it and said pad thai has to be sweet, sour and salty. I’ve always said “meh” to most pad thai because it was usually 1 or maybe 2 of the characteristics listed above and more often than not…dry. This is at most thai places I’ve been to in Nashville. Tonight - dare I say - I had probably THE BEST Pad Thai dish I’ve ever had. Top 3 for sure. What the Thai chef said finally made sense to me. What I had tonight at CR Noodle house was a beautiful dance of sweet, sour and perfect amount of salt in every strand of wet/juicy noodle packed full of flavor and umami. Whoever was cooking tonight…thank you. Cannot wait to have it again. I’ll gladly drive 30mins to eat just the pad thai. Also ordered pad see ew, appetizer platter and duck panang. Duck panang was tasty, not my favorite way to eat duck - usually love it smoked Korean style - but the curry was very flavorful. Was overshadowed by the incredible pad thai :P Capped the night with Taro Boba tea. Was a great way to end the delicious meal"

"At the suggestion of a fellow diner I ordered the vegetable Pho. It came with all of the seasonings and sauces to make the soup my own. It was so wonderful. I'll be back to this neighborhood gem."

"Food was really authentic Lao cousin’s. Second time coming here. The first time I ordered number 8 for the spiced on my beef salads. I could handle that. Thought I could do 9 levels. It was was really spicy. But, so good. Recommend people who want authentic Lao food. To give this place a try. You won’t be disappointed."
