Contemporary eatery offering a traditional Thai menu with a variety of vegetarian options & wine.
LOVED OUR VISIT!! We were craving Thai and wanted to try this spot as it looked yummy. We made a great choice! The food was delicious! The soup was to die for! Service was great. They have lunch specials till 3pm on weekdays and happy hour starting at 4. Definitely going back to visit! So happy I found this place so close to home! My mouth was still watering after I was done and super full! YUMMM
Yep! I would 100% eat here again!
The Pad Thai hit the spot.
It’s the one thing that has to be on its game before you try anything else… because if they have horrible Pad Thai… don’t try anything else.
But!
Not the case!
Even was able to put Duck in it too!
I had already squeezed and like in it and poured the peanuts… but the presentation was prettier when arrived.
Atmosphere was very nice as well.
**My first time having Thai food**
My Thai friend took me here to try Thai food for the first time (I am picky with new foods). It was amazing!! We bought multiple dishes to try out. The tastes were so different and delicious. Food was made to order, timely and kind wait staff, nice clean dining area. I will be a repeat customer! I now love Thai food!!!**my kids also loved it **
I've eaten here a few times, and I always forget to post pictures and rate. The food is delicious and cooked to order. I feel like a lot of Asian restaurants fall flat with their fried rice, but not Nara, the Thai fried rice is full of flavor. My brother loves their curry dishes. The appetizers are tasty, too!
Nara Thai, you used to be the go-to for amazing takeout, fresh and full of flavor. But tonight, you've really let us down.
The service was a mess. They said it would be ready in 10 minutes, but after a quick drive, we waited another 15.
When we finally got the food home, it was a disaster. The fresh rolls were loose, floppy, and barely filled. The dumplings tasted fishy, like they'd been swimming in the wrong pond. The chicken satay skewers were tiny—smaller than my pinkie! And the fried vegetables? They had less flavor than a raw potato.
And the prices? They've gone up so much that you might as well be paying for the disappointment. We could make better food at home for less and feel better about it.
Nara Thai, you've lost us. I hope you get your act together, but for now, we'll be cooking our own meals where the only thing floppy will be our laughter at this night's menu.
Ordered chicken fried rice and got it with shrimp instead and sent me to the hospital as I’m allergic. When I called them they just gave me an email to contact.
Absolutely disappointed with this. Not how you make money.
I ordered drunken noodles with NO VEGETABLES and got a box full of veggies too.
Karina is a fantastic waitress, she provided a level of service you wish you had everywhere. The food is delicious, and the service phenomenal.
Karina is an amazing waitress! She is the reason we keep coming back to this location! The food is good! Great price!
The mock duck in any entree is amazing for a vegan. I am addicted to the eggplant basil with mockduck medium spicy. The spice level is perfect and the flavors are outstanding.
I love the Tom Yum soup so much. Great to clear out your sinuses when unda da wedda.

I stopped by and got the chicken Pad Thai at level 3spice. The food came out quickly and really hit the spot. Enjoyed a Chang beer to wash it down. Good food and good price. Only negative was the restaurant had no heat inside so had to eat with jacket on.
Yep! I would 100% eat here again!

I tried this place with a coworker and now I'm hooked. I'm allergic to seafood but was still able to find other great dishes on the menu.. I love this place
I was feeling sick but Nara Thia food brought me so much comfort I love their orange chicken and rice !!!

We frequent the 1960 location for lunch bc I work nearby. Always quick, always delicious!
I'm sad they changed the recipe for their orange chicken. It was really unique with cashews and you could actually get it spicy. Now it's just bland regular orange chicken that you can get everywhere, except it's also dry and very little sauce. I don't think I will find orange chicken that good anywhere again.
Food was alright. Tom yum soup was great, everything else was meh. A lot was unseasoned. Service was definitely lacking though, waitress rushed us getting our order, then disappeared. Pretty sure the guy who eventually came to check us out was actually a chef, and i think he was only there to escape a super loud angry fight in the kitchen that we listened to the whole time we were eating. Also, the guy that ran my card chose my tip for me. I was gonna tip 20% anyways, but bro. I am a waitress, i would NEVER do that. Will not be back, which is unfortunate because the food was not bad other than being a bit bland
Really good traditional Thai food, good and spicy, perfect.
I love the taste of the food here. Very fresh and authentic
Excellent
Food is fire as they can make most dishes vegan but didn’t sit right with me as I went to pick my order and lady quickly added 30% tip and acted like I didn’t see then told me sign right there all quickly 😂 I left no tip she was mad don’t force a tip on pickup

Pad khee mao with chicken and extra tofu was delicious! Love coming here if I’m craving a Thai dish.
I love Thai food and all the time I’m looking for a restaurant. They have the authentic flavor from Thai food but now I find this restaurant that will be my favorite restaurant in Houston.
I really enjoyed the food!
And our waitress was super nice!
Nara gives me the true Thai feel and my Wife always goes straight to sleep after consuming 😂
My wife and I visited this restaurant location for dinner last night and the food was outstanding. Sam who was our waiter was phenomenal! She checked on us periodically and made sure everything was to our liking. We will be back again! Excellent and authentic Thai food.
I always get good, hot, freshly flavored food when I come here. Delicious!
Nara Thai is one of our FAVORITE Thai restaurants. The food is always delicious and we've been lucky to have Karina as our waitress for the last 4 or so visits. She is absolutely the nicest person and will make you feel right at home. If you love Thai food, you will not be disappointed!!!
Food was delicious and the waitress was wonderful. I look forward to going back again and having more delicious Thai food.
German cockroach in the bottom of my delivery food bag. I've ordered here before, flavor is great but the restaurant needs to be cleaned and kept up with. The potential closure of the business because of health violations is worth at least that much as well as people's livelihood. Looked at the reviews and saw complaints about rats too. The food will never be good enough to keep your place open if you can't keep it clean.
They were short handed and busy.
The chicken curry was delicious and the service was awesome. They are a little pricey. Back when it was Nit Noi, they had these delicious specials that came with a small salad and small delicious soup.
Please be careful of your receipt here. I ordered shrimp fried rice. Instead they put some kind of pineapple rice and charged "extra" for the shrimp. Then to top it off they "took" there own tip out!!!! Terrible. Never again!
Karina was our waitress. She was absolutely wonderful. As someone who was new to Thai food, she helped and recommended me great food. It was amazing and it was served fast!
The shellfish in this food has already started to smell and is not fresh. I feel very nauseous after using it
Baby roach found in the bottom of my food bag. It sucks because I had been ordering for a while with no issue but ever since this happened I can never eat here again.
There's a waitress she has a nose ring and beautiful nails all the time she's very sweet and helpful. Our last waitress yesterday she was mean and rude and the dirty looks she gave were a turn off we didn't even finish our dinner nor take to go boxes the flies were more inviting than her and there were 4 of them.....she did not introduce herself just walked up to our table and stood there and then asked if we're ready to order. I was not trying to be cheap I was trying to cut my portion so I asked if I could order a childs portion of fried rice. The look and response she gave was appalling. Her attitude was atrocious if you don't like people don't work in the food industry. We wanted to order more but she never came around we wanted to order sake and still no response! My daughter had to leave our table to go to the bar to get anything and to take care of the check. I gave up and was tired of the behavior and decided this is not the place for me anymore. We definitely won't be back.
I've eaten here a few times, and I always forget to post pictures and rate. The food is delicious and cooked to order. I feel like a lot of Asian restaurants fall flat with their fried rice, but not Nara, the Thai fried rice is full of flavor. My brother loves their curry dishes. The appetizers are tasty, too!
I just got my order from Uber and oh my goodness....the food is incredible. I had to call the restaurant and tell them compliments to the chef, cause wow! Ordered the Tom Kha soup and Yum Talay Salad. Just wow. Spot on!
I LOVE the place!!! There Red Thai Curry is to live to for!!!! 10/10 would absolutely recommend them!!
Love the Thai fried rice
Bit empty but the food is always good. More people should try their food. I got the red curry with chicken on 3 spice and it was perfect.
Waited for 10 minutes after the host brought out some water after seating myself in a completely empty restaurant to try their yellow curry and no one came to take my order! Walked out past a someone at the bar who said nothing. There is probably a reason that no one was in the restaurant, I wonder why!!!!
Great Thai Food and service!
Decent Thai food. Not the best for what you pay, but pretty good!
Tried this place for lunch and it was good. The food was a bit on the salty side so I had to pour water on it. I ordered Pad Woon Sen with only the vegetables it came with. Fried spring rolls, and the fried roti with cream cheese. I didn't care for the chocolate sauce so I bought hazlenut spread from the store and it was much better. Also the cashier was kind. I would return.
Great food! The orange chicken was wonderful! Staff was very attentive. I am already planning on another trip in. Highly recommend
Great food from appetizer to dessert. The staff are pleasant and patient. #hiddengem

Great food ,!!
Staff was friendly upon entering. Ordered take out Chicken Pad Thai & Chicken Red Curry Mild. The Pad Thai was delicious! Just enough heat, sweetness and good amount of protein. The red curry although tasty, was more on the watery side than I’m used too. Also was light on the protein.
This place is absolutely delicious place and a bit of a hidden gem among many of the fast food places in this area. This was my second time coming here and again, it did not disappoint. I love the fact that you can ask for different heat levels.
Our food was very tasty and the service was great!
This place made me fall in love with Thai food again. Their red and green curry is so flavorful and their servongs of the protein are generous and of good quality
Their food is super good and never once had I letdown here. I always get the chicken or tofu pad see eue and Thai tea as well as spicy basil fried rice. You won’t regret coming here!
Update:
So, today I chose the pickup option through Uber eats to pick up my food in person at the restaurant. Imagine my surprise when I’m told that someone else picked up my order and I don’t see how that’s even possible. I don’t exactly remember what the employee told me but it’s plain and simple: my order was picked up by someone other than myself. I asked if they could remake my order and was told that since someone got my food they couldn’t.
From a logical standpoint, I can see that maybe they thought it was a scam. However, the employee told me that they’ve been verifying every pick up order, but I don’t see how that’s true since someone stole my order.
To truly verify someone’s order, check the app and the info they’re supposed to present on their phone and see if it matches the order and name that the restaurant received. It also doesn’t hurt to check ID too. I’m extremely disappointed that they let this happen, especially since I was really looking forward to eating some of my favorite dishes. I have been coming to this restaurant for years and for this to happen is shocking. Due to this event, I will never eat at this restaurant again. Fortunately for me, uber eats came through and cancelled my order so I won’t be unfairly charged for something that I did not receive.
Okay yaw its elior im back with reviews I been ordering from them for a while on uber eats listen this place is one of only placess that will make almost any dish vegan I am in love with there food on God if you want to eat vegan it's amazing and good if you don't food is amazing too shrimps are big not small ones yaw they don't skimp people off over here on amounts or food quality and it's mostly fresh veggies so home cook style now I used to not be vegan so I know how food is both ways I waited a few months of eating their food to comment or give a review I'm just saying this to say I'm so greatful you guys do your dishes vegan as well people like me trying to follow a more spiritual path in life it's hard to find balanced healthy and tasty vegan food you guys are a blessing thank you for it sincerely this is a thank you to you to your efforts to not only be a buiness but to be fare and kind to customers treating them as ppl if I ever loved a place you'd always be on my list to go as long as that food don't lose its goodness quality how someone cooks shows alot about character thank you yours truly the gourmet hermit
LOVED the food. Wow. It’s so flavorful, such good curry! Panang Curry was awesome with the perfect spice, egg rolls were delicious. Kids orange chicken was nice and crispy with great flavor. Highly recommend for food.
Service, AWFUL service. Karina was BELOW subpar. Karina brought the water out first, great! But, 15 minutes later she finally comes out and asked for drinks which we combined our order with the drink order. She was very dry, and a little rude with her comments when asked a question. Once our food came out, we were missing a rice for our curry and no refills on the drinks were given. 25 minutes went by and we ended up seeing another server come out from the back and asked her for assistance on our rice and refills. Got the check and left. There is already an 18% gratuity added at the end, which I guess good for Karina because she wouldn’t have gotten a tip from me at all and it’s probably how she gets away acting the way she did since she didn’t want to work for one. We saw her two times the entire 1.5 hours we were there and THATS AN ISSUE! I will probably call in future to see if she’s serving before I dine in again.
We love the Masaman curry and teriyaki chicken!
I went today for the first time, the food and service were phenomenal! The manager DQ was very helpful in informing us about the menu, and giving recommendations. We will definitely be coming back!!
The Tom Kha soup is so good! I cant wait to try other things on the menu..
Got it as take out! Well Packaged and fresh, very nice flavors of the rice and the yellow curry!
Everyone that work here is very nice I was just picking up a order from door dashing .. the kindness in the room was amazing.
I picked up an order on my way home this evening. I food was fantastic with the perfect level of spice. I highly recommend the Tom Yum. I will definitely be back many times!
Great food and service!!! Everything was so lovely.....
The food at Nara was absolutely the best. Service was great also. If you get a chance to visit Nara for a meal it will be worth it.
Food tastes great & service is amazing. We got charged $3 for replacing pork with chicken in our curry order which is a bum. Aside from that, we enjoyed dining here.
I just absolutely love the food here. I have never been disappointed with the quality. I normally stick to the basil fried rice or pad thai but have also tried their soups and appetizers and curries ~ ALL AMAZING!
Amazing menu and atmosphere. Service was impeccable. Thank you DQ!
The coconut Thai soup is amazing!
Love their food plus pricing is good. People are very friendly
Last night the appetizer combo was good, and my wife's red snapper was good, but my yum talae was the worst Thai meal I've ever had anywhere. It wasn't the advertised mix of seafood; the only seafood was two medium sized shrimp artfully arranged on vertical skewers. It wasn't served with clear, thin rice noodles (or "glass" or "cellophane" noodles) as in Thailand and everywhere else; it had long, thin strips of unripe papaya. The dish was basically som tam with a couple of shrimp, a wedge of lettuce, a few green beans, a few peanuts, some tomato wedges, and a yom type liquid. I was so disappointed that i ate only two bites. I was reluctant to write a negative review yesterday, but after getting reacquainted with it for supper just now, after digging around I found none of the seafood that I thought yesterday was buried on the bottom. Next time we go for Thai food it will be elsewhere.
It was going well until a rat ran across the floor. So we left. Before that happened the customer service was good and only had appetizer and drinks, it was ok.
Ever since I discovered this place, I come every Saturday with all my family, the food is amazing, the service is fast, the place is clean and inviting. Prices are affordable.
I was picking up a doordash order and the order wasn’t ready yet. The guy in the front was very welcoming and asked me if I wanted anything to drink while I waited since it would be a while. He is a black guy. Very nice and professional.
I like that I can choose how hot I want my meal. Also very good food portions.
Very satisfied with the food and service.
Not in the best location but worth it.
Very tasty food and our waitress was the absolute sweetest 🤩I can't remember her name but she has dark hair and a facial piercing. Fried spring rolls were good, veggie rice was very tasty and the $3 sangria was STRONG 😳 Not the best taste but knocked my socks off nonetheless. Had the mango sticky rice which was mediocre. However, the custard version on a previous visit was delicious 😋
The restaurant is adorable. The red curry was not a favorite. I will try it again though!
My wife and I have been coming here for 7 years, the food was great. However while waiting for the check we saw 2 rats running around under the tables, it was disgusting and we’ll probably never eat here again unfortunately.
If the rats were running around in the dining area, who knows if they run around in the kitchen when they’re closed and that’s unsanitary.
Cozy Thai restaurant. Delicious food. 😋
Next service! Love!
Great food and nice staff
Omg this is far from any word to find to describe the very best. In food in general. I'm totally in love with the food here excellent taste if you had a 10 you'd get an 11.
It was one of the best Thai Coffees I've had. Super delicious. I wish I got an extra for later! Staff was friendly & kind. Location was easy to find & get to with light traffic.
Got myself a chicken pad thai with a medium spice, and it was also quite delicious. Along with the sticky rice combination, which was Thai custard and mangos on sweet rice.
Definitely a recommended spot.
We went here on Mother’s Day and although my daughter’s tofu drunken noodles were delicious, I did not care for my plate of tilapia. I also didn’t like the non-attentiveness of the waiter, however we try to give them the benefit of the doubt. It is still a good restaurant and we will want to go back again to try more dishes. The desert was not good either.
The awful and loud dance music drove me out of this place! It sounds like the same 2 tracks playing over and over and I felt like I was in a 12 year olds room that is trying to annoy their parents. Curry was good but music will prevent me from ever coming back!
Delicious food, wonderful service, and relaxing atmosphere. Couldn't ask for more.
Fairly good thai. Good parking, decor is nice. Service a tad slow.
The outstanding dish is the curry. The Pad tai is overly sweet and not well roasted on the wok.
The dumpling appetizers also are noteworthy. The fried tofu is sub par.
Come during rainy or cold days to get a warm spicy fix. Good enough but not memorable.
Slow service, but food was good. Maybe we went on a bad day.
UPDATED REVIEW 5-2-23: The last 2-3 times eating here at 1960 location have been very disappointing. The mgr Kevin cares more about cutting costs than producing good food. Theyre using cheaper/different ingredients, including lots of fillers like excessive amounts of carrots in the curry puffs (which are now usually cold, old and tasteless) and water chestnuts in the pad kra pow, which is now officially just meat on rice. They couldnt even make the pineapple curry last time bc theyre out of pineapple. Yes seriously. I had to get tom yum soup bc "we have some of that ready already". The chicken satay is inconsistent on being tough/dry or tasty/juicy. All 3 of my friends I brought here bc I raved about it had disappointing dishes also. They got chunky, half cooked, tasteless, some basic ordinary veggies, with a few pieces of meat and way too much rice. Not sure if I wanna come back to this location. Not worth $30 to eat here.---Original Post: If I could give 10 stars, I would. One of the top 5 Thai places Ive ever eaten....and Ive eaten in Thailand lol Every single thing there was on point with texture, taste, temperature. Presentation was classic and understated art. The pineapple curry with chicken was a first for me, and extremely delicious. Unlike anything Ive ever had! The shrimp tom yum soup was terrific. The chicken pad kra pow with fried egg on top (cooked in butter, perfect yolk consistency) and pepper, garlice, lime, sesame sauce was incredible. Been in Houston 2 yrs and this is the best Thai food Ive had here and top 5 globally. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
They close at 10:00 PM... came in at 9:10 and they turned us away on a Friday night. I could understand if it was 9:40 or later but your reastraunt is still open for almost an hour. Do not say you close at 10 if you really close at 9:00
Was our Favorite Thai restaurant for many years, noticed a few changes a few months ago, but today 4/28/2023, 4pm did not go well.
Something has changed with ownership or management, service has fallen completely off the chart, meal was still pretty good, but the experience simply ruined everything.
Time to search for a new Thai restaurant.
Excellent food! The PadThai was excellent and the Panang Curry (with Chicken)
Best curry ever!
Consistently delicious! I get Pad Woonsen and my husband gets at least 3 apps + entree every time, and loves it all. Quick delivery. Yum. Great job guys!❤️👏
Very nice spot! Would go again. That speaks volumes for me!! Lol!!
I ordered take out. Waited inside for over 40 minutes just for them to have had my order sitting on the counter for 25 minutes. I even tipped beforehand. Absolutely annoyed.
Best mango sticky rice!!
I had excellent food cooked just right and it was affordable too! It started with a piping hot Chicken Curry Puff as an appetizer. And I split a creamy and mildly spicy Tom Kha soup and a Papaya Salad with shrimp as entrees. I had plenty of refills of water without having to wave anyone over.
I ordered through Door Dash the Nara Thai fried rice with chicken and shrimp, non-spicy, and paid extra for veggies. Very disappointing. It's very spicy, there are no veggies at all and no chicken. Never ordering again from this place. I should get a full refund. It makes me wonder if they even gave me the right order.
Pretty good food, very nice variety and interesting menu with detailed descriptions for those not familiar with Thai Food. And they don't skimp on the protein!
Nice serving staff, too. 1 very kind waiter took care of our very large group with much care and patience.
Unfortunately, as far as the kitchen, everyone's food was good, but the orders came out at very different times. Some were done eating by the time others got their plate.
The Eggplant Basil with Chicken was delicious, though!
And good, very large, Thai Coffee! Definitely worth the price! Just wish it had a little less sugar.
2019: Best Thai in Houston. Quiet, friendly staff, great food, great service
2023: UPDATE!!!
New Management and staff is trash! I have had issues every time I've visited since they've changed. The wait time is ridiculous now. I even ordered once to-go and the order was all wrong. I'm just so disappointed in the service with the new staff. This used to be my favorite restaurant. I think they are going downhill now. Sad!
I tried the Pad Kee Mao and Tom yum soup and both items were really delicious.
We LOVE Nara. The people are always so friendly and the food SUPERB.
Definitely good to try if you like Thai cuisine.
I literally have ordered Nara’s yellow curry like ten times & each time it is equally delicious. I had an issue with my food being delivered today and yellow curry is my go to food because it always makes me feel better when I’m feeling sick & they were kind enough to see how sad I was I didn’t get my curry and they made me a new batch 🥺 & that turned my night around. I literally hadn’t eaten all day and I was excited to have a definitive appetite & was crushed & hangry! So, not only are they a wonderful restaurant that makes delicious food they care about their customers as well. The gesture of accommodating me when they didn’t need or have to made a world of difference to me. Good food comes from good people! HIGHLY recommend 🫡✨
Service at its worst. They dont give any information about the food when asked. The west lake location is the best.
I love this place! I order every week. Today my delivery driver (Uber eats worker) forgot or stole my food so I called the restaurant to see what happened. And the Restaurant delivered it for me! How sweet. I love this place even more now!! They are amazing
I’m genuinely shocked by the terrible food I got vs. the high rating at this restaurant… the curry was so watery, the chicken was dry and not even cut properly. Not to mention the sauce for the rolls… the color looks like a kid’s toy. There are good Thai restaurants around Woodlands/ Spring areas; just not this one.
It's some of the worst Thai food I've ever had. Watery curry, mushy chicken Larb filled with raw cumin seeds, and spring rolls with an unnatural pink sauce. It's amazing that this place stays in business. Shockingly terrible food...
Got food poisoning!!!
Had a small wait for the food but the workers were nice and attentive.
By far the best the quality, freshness, flavor and cleanliness and amazing staff calm ambience
Very disappointed with the service and food. Order a to go order and got home to find that it was wrong. When I called I was asked by the same staff member who took my order "did you at least try eating it"? Really, this is not what I paid for. He just came off very rude. Will not be returning.
The absolute best Thai food I’ve had in Houston. Fresh, kind and fast service and extremely clean. The fried Thai wings, spring rolls, Thai fried rice and my absolute favorite PINEAPPLE SWEET AND SOUR CHICKEN! This is our new staple.
Outstanding food and a lot of bang for your buck
Awesome food options. I love the chicken basil spaghetti and chicken fried rice 😍. My weekly go to, best Thai food.
The food was amazing
Yum, yum, yum!!! The pai tai is delightful, but please do your bowels a favor and get MEDIUM. Spicy is DEADLY!!!! Lol had my nose drippin and my eyes watery. Yikes!!!! But it was PACKING with flavors. I had this a few years ago and it's still wonderful. Highly recommend.
Great staff, authentic food!
Oh my goodness their food is delish! Lots to choose from. The ice tea is great too!!
Great food and service!! I absolutely love this restaurant! The exterior isn't much to look at but when you step inside it is beautiful! Best thai tea around!!!
Tried several different things. Not mind blowing but the food is very tasty across the board! Attentive service!
Amazing, fresh, delicious food, and super lovely people. Some of the best Thai I've had in years. Wish I lived closer. I'd be a regular!
Awesome curry! I had a red curry with shrimp 🍤 definitely somewhere I'm saving the menu on
This place has excellent Thia food for the price best crab rangoons I've had. Medium price but not expensive.
Food is always nice hot and fresh. Nara Thai is always my go to!
It's a pretty good Thai restaurant. Their menu is very first timer friendly which is a plus. They recommend the yellow curry for first timers. I was going to get the yellow curry anyway because it is one of my favorites to get at a Thai restaurant. The only thing I do not like about theirs is that their potatoes in the curry are very undercooked. Otherwise their appetizers and their Thai tea is delicious.
We last visited this restaurant pre pandemic, it was good food back then and that was true for this visit also. We came as a party of 4andceach ordered a different dish.
My FIL ordered the Eggplant with tofu, we thought he wasn't going to finish it as he'd been snacking all morning, it all disappeared, he loved it and left very full.
My BIL ordered the Pad Kra Pow with tofu. Again zero disappointment, tasty, fresh and he enjoyed the meal immensely.
My wife ordered the Pad Thai with shrimp and some Chicken Curry Puff. The food hit the mark, was served hot, fresh, and tasty.
I had the Pineapple Curry with shrimp. This was a new Thai dish to me and dang it was tasty!, just found my new favorite Thai dish. It comes with a bowl of white rice, which I dipped into the soupy sauce to complete the meal.
They offer local, and imported beers. I tried both of the Thai beers on offer. Singha is my favorite for when I eat out at a Thai restaurant.
Interestingly the tables are covered with white butcher's paper and crayons are supplied so you can decorate your table if you feel creative. The sheets are changed out after each table is vacated.
All in all, we enjoyed our meal immensely and, based on our experience would highly recommend this to family and friends as a must visit if you like Thai.
Food is ok but they use alot of msg. Sometimes a portion of food is hot on your plate while others aren't. Don't ask for water it tastes like sink water . Could do alot better.
Food was ok and the noodle were a little under cooked.
The best Thai food I've found in the area. Love love love it!
First time order this place (togo)
1 I ordered crab fried rice. They used cheap crab meat, it’s smell so fishy. I already had crab fried rice at the other restaurant, didn’t smell this bad.
2 green papaya salad not crunchy, so soggy, the sauce mix in the salad was not taste right.
3 red curry with beef and tofu: the curry wasn’t creamy enough with coconut milk, and I only get 5 pieces of beef and the left is all tofu and bamboo.
4 chicken sate : the chicken were so dry, it’s like jerky chicken.
Sorry won’t recommend and won’t be back.
Excellent service, excellent food. I wasn’t sure going to eat at this place. Now, I have a good restaurant to return to for Thai food 👍🏽
