    Note: this review is based on a to-go order of the crab fried rice. The food was prepared quickly. The staff were friendly. The fried rice was delicious. The restaurant seemed inviting. The parking situation can be tough as it's a busy retail area. I look forward to coming back and having a more complete Thai meal.

    I ordered from Nara before and thought it was pretty good but this last time I'm pretty shocked at what they charge and the portions they give. They charge 14 dollars for a curry that is about 1/2 the portion size of what I usually get at any other Thai restaurant. And for shrimp they charged me an extra 6 dollars and gave me 3 pieces of shrimp. I don't think I can ever order from this place again. It is a shame because the food tastes good but I can't justify paying 90 bucks for Thai food that is 1/2 portion sizes.

    Came here for my birthday celebration. Love that you can veganize the menu by paying extra $1, haven't seen that before anywhere. They don't have any lunch specials but we were more excited about thier vegan options. The spring rolls were a little bland but decent. Man, the vegetarian spicy basil fried rice was amazing! Finely chopped vegetables, just how I like them. Very tasty. Thai tea & the noodles were good too. Would like to try thier curries sometime.

    We ordered from the Cypress location and have been extremely loyal however the past two times have been awful. We ordered the Orange Chicken (over cooked and only 11 tiny pieces and dry) fried rice (over cooked dry chicken and no flavor) and Pad Thai ( dry and had a very strange flavor) on top of all of that the portions were extremely small compared to what they use to be. Not pictured is the tofu they originally made for us and I had to drive over 45 min round trip and wait 15 min for my food. Extremely horrible experience, didn't once ask if they could compensate and refund our money. After the past two experiences I doubt we will be back after going to this spot for years.

    Great location, easy parking. Staffs are nice. Foods are okay, we like their mock duck, basil tofu and tomyam. Fried calamari were bad, the batter was too greasy and tasteless, the calamari was overcooked.

    Food, service, and great cozy ambiance. Came in for dinner! We all got pad Thai with iced tea our usual order. Love that they customize the spice level to your liking!

    The food was delicious, service was excellent. The curry was rich and flavorful, with just the right amount of spice, and it brought me very close to the authentic Thai flavors I crave. We definitely will return!

    Five stars through Uber Eats delivery! We have ordered here multiple times and every time, it's been a hit. The food arrived still warm ~ so thanks Uber Eats. We always order Pad See Ew w/ chicken or beef, Orange Chicken w/ rice, crab puffs and sticky rice w/ custard. All the food that we ordered were flavorful and taste delish! We did pick spice level 3, it's the perfect amount of spice - spicy to have your nose running but still super edible! The sticky rice w/ custard - taste extremely fresh and not old rice. Will definitively continue to order from here. Nara Thai Dining & AnothaThai are my two go to Uber Eats restaurants to order from for Thai food in Cypress area.

    Basil Fried Rice with Beef. Would definitely order again.

    The spicy catfish was bomb. 10/10 would order again. Glad I went for it. You should go for it too.

    I've always wanted to try the food here and finally did…read more It was great! The food was tasty and flavorful. Good vibes walking in and admiring the wall of license plates. The staff was nice and generous, which is always a big plus. The second I took a bite of my food I knew the reviews did not fail. Great food, staff, and ambiance. Definitely coming back. Check it out and see!

    This was my first time visiting this restaurant, and unfortunately, it was not a great experience…read more I ordered the shrimp fried rice, and while transferring it to another plate, I found a long black hair buried deep inside the rice. The waitress watched me pull it out and took the hair, but never came back to address the issue. After waiting, I had to call another employee over and ask if they were going to replace the fried rice. Her response and attitude made me feel like I was expected to just eat it anyway. They did make a new order, but when the bill came, I was told the original fried rice was removed from the bill and I would have to pay for the replacement. In my opinion, I should not have been charged for a dish that had a hair in it in the first place, especially since I was already finished with my meal and ready to leave when the replacement arrived. Customer service was disappointing. The staff seemed irritated when I asked questions about the menu, even though it was my first visit. Overall, the food was average at best. Food: 5/10 Customer Service: 3/10 Unfortunately, this experience did not leave me wanting to return.
