This place used to be Camber and changed in January 2019. Seems like it's mostly the same physical layout with a different menu.
Came in here for an early dinner like 6pm on a Saturday, no wait but it got busy pretty fast. It's a fairly big restaurant (especially for Montclair!). Menu was sort of pan-Southeast-Asian, fairly Americanized with nothing too adventurous or particularly exotic. Pad Thai, noodles, rice, curries, etc.
Our service and food were both quite prompt, though unexciting. The $6 sangria (?!) was actually fairly good, boozy and not too sweet. Servers and layout are reasonably kid-friendly (it's not fancy) but no kid menu or crayons or anything. Moderately loud, not intimate and not a place to impress a date. Overall it was an average value considering this is the Bay Area. Would come again but not dying to.
Lao Tae is a gem nestle in Montclair. The menu has everything I want for my Lao/Thai fix. Environment is fun and the owners are great people who makes sure your having a good time. My definite go to spot from now on!
From some of the owners of Camber, Lao Tae offers many of the same delicious specialties, like cien fritters and lemongrass sausage, in a relaxed dining atmosphere.
