Thai Dara — Restaurant in San Clemente

I’m just leaving a mid range review because of the service. We called in an order and they let us know it would take 20-30 minutes. We arrived 20 minutes later (so on the early end but we didn’t mind waiting) and the hostess said “you know it will be 15-20 minutes” even though that wasn’t what they said before. Oh well.

Clean, well organized, and so filling! We’re...
