Thai Nara — Restaurant in New York

Someone recommended this place to me because I love spicy food & I look for halal places. I was bored with my typical desi food. So on my way to Jackson heights I went to try it out.

It’s a small & simple store! But very clean tho. Food was really good, I tried Thai soup & fried wonton . Loved the soup. Ordered takeout for my kid beef lomain & beef sizzler. It took me a while to go home, and when I give it to my son he didn’t like none ! It could be that it was not fresh, some food do taste better fresh. After microwave some just don’t taste the same ! Or it could be that every food can’t be tasty to me, every human has different taste!

The owner was there, wonderful person. Answered all my questions, his hospitality was awesome ! He is originally from Thailand & running this restaurant with his youngest daughter! It’s totally family owned business! Talking to him was like I was talking to my dad, always smiling & very down to earth person !

The prices of the food was actually very reasonable & good amount of food in one order. I love the fact on soup orders they have 2 sizes, gives me a chance to try different ones.

Typically I try not to visit one place twice, because second time my experience always not the best. I just don’t wanna ruin the first memories! But I will definitely visit this place again , because of the hospitality! I am hoping it will be the same or even better. And I can try out the different items on the menu !

I wish I could give 5 stars, but had to take it out because of the 2 dishes which wasn’t liked by a big foodie! Trust me when I say my son has a taste like my dad, very distinct on his choices ! I will try the same food in the restaurant while it’s hot , just so I can confirm my opinions !

If you are in queens please do visit this place , you will...

Hidden Gem in the neighborhood. They serve Halal. Great service, nice menu, delicious food, reasonable pricing, exactly what you want to have when you dine out. They have indoor seating. If you check on their seamless, they have photos of all the menu options!

Drinks: Lemonade with lychee had real lychee fruit, with the seed removed, i like my lemonade sweeter than most people but the fruit was a nice sweetnees Mango lassi was delicious, the right amount of sweetness and consistency

Apps: Crispy Fried shrimp tasted fresh, juicy, crispy Chicken lollipops were well prepared, crispy and seasoned nicely The sauces that came with the apps were good too

Entrees: Pad Thai was perfect Pad Siew was filling

Good portions and good flavor all around! Will be returning soon. Highly recommend...

second time having thai food and oh my goodness this was amazing. everything is halal thankfully meaning we could pick anything. fried rice, soups, and noodles all had vegetarian options and let me say that the nara noodles were life changing and the pad see mao was amazing. the first bite of the spicy chicken wings made me fall in love that we got seconds. might seem like a small space and there was no one there when we went but it filled up quickly and i can see why. the server was super nice and food took around 10 min for the food to be served maybe even less. portion sizes were literally perfect, maybe a little small if you have a large appetite but for us we ordered 3 main dishes for 4 ppl and we all got full. 100% recommend please try this restaurant out!!
