Extremely bland food.I ordered very spicy noodles and yellow curry and paid extra for them to add chicken.We literally had only 4 small pieces of chicken between the two dishes.Food was not spicy at all.Very disappointed.

All dishes were good. My favorite is the chicken satay… the honey chicken was good, but seemed a bit soggy and the batter wasn’t fully cooked. Maybe it’s supposed to be like that, and I’m just an idiot. Great experience otherwise.

the food here was extremely fresh and flavorful I loved the pad thai so did my children I absolutely adored the chicken curry and I would definitely recommend this place to anybody that loves Thai food try the crying tiger steak combo and you won't be disappointed the vegetables were just so fresh and the dressing was irresistibly addicting!

We have ordered take out a couple times from Thai Dara and have been impressed each time. The people that own the restaurant have been so kind and the food has always been phenomenal. One time we called to see if we can put in an order for takeout abt 15 min before they closed and they took our order and had our hot food ready for us when we arrived shortly after. Flavors are on point and the menu has a wonderful variety of options to pick from. Love the food and the staff, will keep coming back!

Great food, hot tea was organic, clean restrooms, huge portions. Only negative is that the menu doesn’t specify it, but lunch and dinner specials are only available on weekdays.Dietary restrictions: Easy vegan and gluten free options

5 stars & UPFew good things to say about this restaurant. But I will only tell you that the food here is so good that I am reviewing and at the same time planning my next time here.

Absolutely stunned with how good this restaurant is, the seasoning was superb with ample servings. A restaurant you could miss if you drive too fast but won't easily forget I highly recommend getting the chili and basil beef! The waitress is also kind and attentive. The very definition of hole in the wall ❤️

Food is quite good. I especially liked the steamed potstickers appetizer. It's an interesting very small authentic Thai eatery that is not fancy. To get what I wanted, I stopped a waiter who was going by my table to ask for another beverage, another appetizer, etc. They get busy with each customer often ordering a lot of dishes so they have a lot of food to serve. It's a one-of-a-kind eatery. If the prices were lower, I would go more often.
