Absolute favorite Thai spot now. The flavors come to life so well! I’ve had Nara for takeout a few times before and it was so good we just had to dine-in to get the full experience. The staff is really sweet and great at suggesting items based on what we mentioned. There are plenty of veg options that are spectacular - eggplant tofu, pad ka prow tofu, green curry and basil fried rice are a few we’ve had so far. Highly recommend to anyone seeking delicious Thai food.
