As others have mentioned, Ha Long Bay has the best Tom Kha I've ever had. When I first moved to Madison, this was my go-to restaurant. Amidst all of the bar food here, HLB was like a breath of fresh air.\n\nThe wait can get a little ridiculous, especially after 7 on weekends, but you can't exactly blame them for having lots of customers. I would just try to get there as early as possible, especially with a large party. As for other noteworthy dishes, I'd order the curries. I've tried many of their noodle dishes, and they all seem to taste very similar with very few distinctions between them (typically just ingredients or type of noodle)-- Perhaps this is because they have a crazy amount of noodle dishes to choose from. \n\nBut all in all, HLB is one of the best, if not the best, SE asian restaurants in Madison.
