My wife and I ate at Thai Tara last Thursday while visiting Las Vegas. I wish we had eaten here earlier. If we had, we would have had dinner here every night!
My wife ordered Vegan Tofu Soup, I ordered Tom Yum Soup. Together we ordered an Avocado Roll and Sticky Rice with Thai Custard. We loved them all.
My wife loved the Tofu Soup. I enjoyed it, but my favorite was the Tom Yum because I like spicy. Medium spicy was good for me. The Avocado Roll was similar to a spring roll (clear rice paper, not fried), but better than any spring roll we have every had. One order had six pieces, plenty for the two of us and there were lots of leafy vegetables with the avocado. The Sticky Rice with Custard was very tasty. Something colored the rice blue, which was attractive, but it was similar to normal mango sticky rice, but with custard instead of mango.
All the tables in the restaurant were socially distanced. The art work on the walls and lamps are attractive with a pleasant ambiance, not too bright, not too dark. I spent time just looking at the beauty of the restaurant decorations.
I ordered Thai Iced Tea and the glass was shaped in a way different than I have ever seen. I had mentioned I was a vegetarian and I liked that the waitress came back to me and asked if I was vegan and would rather have a vegan milk (coconut?) rather than half-and-half with the Iced Tea.
At the end of the meal, my wife asked how far we were from I-15 because she wanted to come there every time we passed...
Read moreMy friend invited me for dinner here. At first I was skeptical tk try yet another Thai food place but he said it was authentic. Having been to Thailand many times it's rare to find authentic Thai food in Las Vegas.
But Thai Tara didn't disappoint. We ordered the Papaya salad, Larb and Massaman Curry chicken. We got all 3 dishes authentic Thai style which means HOT 🔥.
The food was amazing, authentic, great taste and brought back memories of my time there and how all the spices and tastes overwhelm the senses. I was really excited. Larb is usually one of my 'Thai Tests' and this one was one of the best I have had. I love it when the use the roasted crushed rice on top. But every dish, even the Som Tom was fresh and delicious. The curry was amazing as well.
I could tell by the three dishes we had that there wasn't a bad thing on the menu. In addition to the authentic Thai food was an authentic Thai owner. I'm sorry I don't remember her name but am sure she is always there. If you don't know what to order she can help recommend something scrumptious.
If you love good Thai food, put this place in your list. I'm excited to return and try...
Read moreUpon entering we had a large group with us. The staff was very hospitable in accommodating our dinner party. We were given menus and suggestions re: items to try.
We opted for the short rib curry, wings, beef garlic pepper, chicken garlic pepper, yakisoba,and of course that Thai Tea. Now I will admit I saw a picture of that Thai Tea on Yelp and I wanted it. It was the right amount of everything that makes this tea as wonderful as everyone knows it is. Plus the size was perfect. Something about those carafes it is served in made me feel like it is was huge portion of tea. I was in Tea Heaven. JS!!!!!
Interior is several table and chair arrangements. Everything is very Covid19 evident in here. Completely clean and sanitized.There was a television going with something that entertained the younger kiddies in my group.
Would recommend - pricing was reasonable. Portions were very generous. The staff was beyond hospitable and courteous. Even ensuring everything was packed wonderfully for the ride home. Nothing...
