I was going to try this place, so I started putting in my order to pick up for me and my staff. So far, the prices look fair, and the food looks good. However, when I am about to check out, it asks me to leave a tip for the staff and you HAVE to select a percentage, so I just canceled my order. Why would I leave a tip for people to prepare my order, aren't they being paid to do so? Plus, I am PICKING up my order, why dont you (Nara Thai) just jack up the price 10% on your menu and give the 10% to your employees at the end of the day... just a thought. I will be going elsewhere. read more

Nara Thai - Pad Kra Pow (Chicken) - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

I was on my way home and stumbled across my favorite- Nara Thai. I came when their AC wasn't working but that didn't stop me from dining in. They had lots of heaters around and I sat at the bar. I ordered my usual Pad Kee Mao anf added Mock Duck this time. For dessert- you have to try the mango sticky rice. They made theirs with perfection. The server was so nice and efficient. read more

Nara Thai - Simmered Beef Massaman Curry w/Avocado - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

Everything was absolutely delicious. The Poor Man's Noodles were packed with flavor and perfectly seasoned. The Red Curry with Chicken was rich, creamy, and had just the right amount of heat -- tender chicken and a deep, comforting curry taste. The Chicken Empanadas were crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and full of savory goodness. You can really tell everything was made with care and quality ingredients. I'll definitely be ordering again! read more

Love their food ! Mostly get take out ! But food comes out fast all the time . Great curry puffs read more

It's been a while i haven't been back in here. The food is still good, The flavor is great and the service crew is very friendly. I love the flavor of the duck in red curry and sweet and sour chicken as well as the tom yum soup. The only complaint i have is the amount of meat on the red curry and tom yum soup needs to be more. As well as the sticky Rice in the mango sticky rice. read more

Ordered to pick up. It was ready in such a timely manner. When we walked in it was clean and cozy. My group of 4 loved the food! I got spice level 2 and it was good for my low spice tolerance. If you handle quite a bit of spice others in my group recommend a 4. read more

Love this place and always come and dine in but for some reason the only time I ordered for pick up the lady was unable to understand us and when we specifically explained what we wanted and ordered they still gave us the wrong thing. Apparently there is two types of pad kra pow so that was their excuse for giving us the wrong food even tho we specifically described the ground chicken with the egg. read more

The Thai tea was flavoured nice, not too sweet. The pad kee mao was my first time getting it with tofu, and it was super yummy. Compliments to the chef, even though I like the bigger square flat noodles, they did a very good job with this longer thinner needle. This is the best pad kee mao in all of Spring, and I venture Houston. I will be ordering tofu rather than meat more often. The noodles were done to perfection, super flavourful. They don't have mint, and to me mint is best in the Tom kha soup, but that's okay, I'll add some when I get home. Other than that, the Tom kha came out good, very flavourful, nice and thick, and also with tofu. I will definitely be bringing my husband to dine here with me next time! read more

The food was amazing. We ordered chicken pad thai and beef panang curry. The pad thai had a great amount of spice and flavor. I'd recommend trying it. The panang curry was also yummy! The thai tea was okay, it was different than what it usually tasted like at other places. It's $5 I believe. Anyways! Try it out! We loved it. Great atmosphere and very nice decor/ set up. The table clothes are paper and they give you crayons so you can draw on them while you wait for the food. It was a fun addition. :) read more

This was our first time at Nara Thai. Everything (and everyone) was amazing! Our server DQ was so friendly and attentive. He gave us great recommendations and always made sure we were good throughout our meal. Every dish we ordered was delicious. We got Pad Kra Pow, Shrimp Panang Curry, and the Home style Pad Kra Pow chicken. Everything was so flavorful and perfectly seasoned. You get to choose your own level of spiciness and protein/veggies. We loved the customizability! Also, the mango sticky rice is a must for the perfect dessert/ ending. Yum!! This is definitely a mom-and-pop shop vibe restaurant. It was cozy, but also big enough to fit a few large parties. We really enjoyed our dinner here and would definitely be back! read more

This use to be my go to spot for Thai food but has def gone downhill. The quality is not it and the price is not worth it. Thai rice has no flavor. Sucks because now I need a knew spot in the area. read more

I go here on a regular basis. The service is pretty nondescript. I'm always a fan of crayons and paper to entertain myself while I wait. It's actually a pretty nice atmosphere for a strip mall. I love curry, and they do a great job. My one complaint would be the potatoes in the yellow curry. The potatoes are usually my favorite part, but here they're usually pretty uncooked. Good flavor, but definitely lacking in texture. All around, pretty good for Thai if you're in the area. read more

Nara Thai - Pad Thai with vegetables - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

Ordered through Doordash on NYE- and it was not the way to the end the year. All the food I ordered came out extremely spicy and I know I did not order any spicy dishes. The crab fried rice I tried because I saw other good reviews on it- don't do it. Horrible smell of fish! The taste was weird too; felt like I was eating mini rocks. I had ordered Thai tea too, never got it nor did the Resturant tell me it wasn't available. Chicken satey was rubbery. Save yourself and find another Thai restaurant. read more

I was craving a Thai iced tea and had a long way to drive back home. I walked in to get a Thai iced tea to go. It's $5. Ouch. So I told the waiter to please don't put too much ice so that I'd at least get a decent quantity of the drink. He came out with a big plastic cup filled up with the tea with no ice and another big cup with ice. That was generous. They have a beautiful mural in one wall and fans that move to left and right on the shape of leaves. read more

Nara Thai - Thai Near Me - Houston, Texas

Got delivery from here my first night in Houston and it was splendid. I ordered a lot of food, 40 dollars worth since I knew I'd be at the motel for a while, and this lasted me for 3 whole dinners. I got green curry with tofu, medium spicy, pad see ew with tofu, two orders or rice, tofu spring rolls, and extra peanut sauce. The curry was definitely a bit hotter than medium spicy but at least it wasn't dull. Had plenty of flavor and tons of tofu. Same with the noodles. One of the spring rolls came with the casing split, but it still tasted great. The peanut sauce was just perfect. Overall, a fantastic selection of dishes and I'd happily eat there again if I find myself in Houston. read more

Food was average but nothing really outstanding. But beware that you may have some safety issues and if you do you may have problems getting any customer service. We had a terrible experience there. While scooting my seat forward to pull up to the table, the seat separated from the frame and my finger got caught in between. Was a bloody and painful experience that is ongoing. The manager Raymond did come from another location and comp'd the meal which was appreciated. However when I requested contact info for the owner to file a claim it was not provided. Instead Raymond assured me that I would receive a call the following day from the owner whose name was Neal. That never happened and it's been a week. I have called and left messages for Raymond and Neal but so far no one has had the decency to even return my calls. It appears that this company does not want an investigation started nor any claims on their insurance. Perhaps they believe that they can simply ignore the damages done to their customers by negligent maintenance of their furniture and thus avoid all responsibility? Still waiting for a call back. I'll post again if it gets resolved. read more

Honestly, coming over here seemed like an adventure to me. It's not too far from where I stay, but this side of 1960 is a little more sketchy...and so for that reason I felt like this place was more authentic (Ali Wong anyone?). However, I have to say that as soon as we put the food in the car there was a very distinct aroma that that had to have been fish oil. It was hard to wait because (because the fish oil), it smelled delicious. I enjoyed my Shrimp pad thai and my brother enjoyed his it's red curry. They told us that the meat is halal, so he was able to enjoy it with meat, something that doesn't happen often for halal meat eaters. I still prefer the shrimp with my pad Thai. We also got the papaya salad and I was told that it was good as well. Definitely try the Thai tea, it's as good as the ones in Thailand, according to my brother. read more

I recently discovered Nara Thai and am so pleased with my experience. The food is so fresh and consistently delicious. The Thai tea is remarkable. And their to-go packaging/process is excellent. I ordered the cashew chicken - five stars. Chicken is fresh. Their recipe is less saucy than others but has a ton of flavor. I also had the noodle soup. Go such a simple option it's delicious! Broth and ingredients are sent separately so it's perfect if you want to have it for multiple meals. Love this place! read more
