The recently opened Chez Philippe has rapidly become one of the best restaurants in Vientiane. The restaurant is opposite Kob Chai deu, on the top floor of the Phimphone mini Mart. While not cheap, the quality of the ingredients and the cooking is excellent. Try the tuna if it is on the menu; also the steaks, particularly the rib eye for two people are very tasty. Chez Philippe also has an extensive and well-chosen wine list.
