NaRa Thai Cuisine

Great experience! Elena was our server and was sweet, attentive, and knew the menu well. We ordered a variety of items and got a really good selection of the menu! The soups were my favorite, drunken noodles on par, and nicely prepared rice. Good, authentic Thai flavors all around! If you like things spicy, advocate for it-- a 3 on their scale is pretty mild for heat lovers. Easy to eat vegetarian and even has gluten free options like pad Thai.

Nicely decorated, clean place with good energy. We left with a mango sticky rice for each of us -- a little pricy at $8 a piece but it was so good I would come back just for that (and maybe try some appetizers next time)!

New owners? No problem!
The new owner re-opened this place about a month and a half ago and the renovations/decorations make the place feel even more inviting and fun! We loved our weeknight dinner here and can't wait to be back!
The food was amazing! The Kuea Kai noodles were so delicious and came as a MASSIVE portion. The Panang Curry was also super flavorful.
The owner, Lin, came by our table and was just so pleasant. She really cares about her customers!
Please support this place, we want it to be around for years to come!

My husband craves pad Thai and, since he's on the mend from being sick all week, I stopped in to get some carry out. I almost didn't since it was 15 minutes to closing time, but everyone was so warm and welcoming. I ordered chicken pad Thai and West Coast pad Thai and both were authentic and so delicious.
The space is so nice, and the food is so good, I know we'll be back to dine in.

Level 5 spice had no spice to it even after adding extra powdered spice. I found it odd that they had no fresh chili in the back.

The dish had the smallest amount of chicken in it. I am glad I did not ask for a more expensive meat like duck because I would have gotten so little of it.

The flavor was not bad and the low review is not because of the level of spice but really the amount of meat that you get.
When I first got the dish I was thinking that it was a pretty big plate but then saw it looked full because of the amount of green beans, onions, and bell peppers that was in the dish. I felt like I was eating a vegetarian dish.

I visited on Valentine's Day while in town for work and they were super busy. The kitchen was a backed up but I had some podcasts to catch up on, so I wasn't in a hurry. Plus, the staff set expectations and suggested I get an app since the main would be a while. I got the veggie delight with mock duck and enjoyed my meal. I've been here several times, but this was my first since the new ownership.

I noticed the next day I had left my AirPods at the table. I called and left my information, but I live in Michigan, so fully accepted I would never see them again. To my surprise, they arrived in the mail a few days later!

Thanks, Nara! See you next time I'm in town!

Really loved the drunken noodles and pad thai and will definitely be coming back regularly for more! Love that you can customize your choice of protein and spice level - this makes it super vegetarian friendly. Staff were helpful, space felt clean and comfortable.

So hot, Soo good. I eat my cashew nut with tears of joy lol. Ever since I started eating here I come at least once a WK. Cashew nut is amazing, I also can't go without their fried potstickers.

Good food and great service. Will definitely return and take some friends. Authentic Thai restaurant.

Mango Paradise has chicken and shrimp. The chicken tasted old, like it had been in the refrigerator a long time. The dish did come out quite hot.
Drunken Noodles with fried tofu had eggs in it, although not listed on the menu. The tofu was dry and tasteless. Some of the veggies were cool temperature wise.
The service was lacking. Our water was not refilled. We had asked about Mango sticky rice, but no one came back. We waited but no one came back so we left cash on the table to pay for our meals.
The restaurant was clean, cute elephants on every table, beautiful photos of dishes on the walls.

Came here for lunch with a colleague who was talking it up - I was not disappointed whatsoever. I've been to Thailand many times and this is the real deal

We started with chicken satay and crab ragoons - amazing . I ordered Pad Thai and he had another spicy dish - both were excellent ! Service was attentive and very friendly - I wish I lived in IA so I could come back . Stellar venue for Thai !!
