Stopped by here when visiting Sam Houston a few days ago as it was recommended to us by a family member. We ordered Thai tea to start off with, and it's also bogo on Tuesdays! Luckily we came on a Tuesday haha. The Thai tea was massive, I had to ask for another cup to take home the rest. For our lunch, we ordered crab angel (crispy crab wontons), Tom yum seafood soup, and spicy catfish. The crab angels were decent, one of them had almost no filling inside... I feel like this appetizer would've been better with imitation crabmeat or just more crab meat in general. The Tom yum soup was probably one of my favorite dishes here. You can't really mess up when it comes to this soup. The soup had a variety of mushrooms, tomatoes, squid, mussel, and shrimp. Lastly, the spicy catfish! We really enjoyed the spicy catfish, I just think it would've been better if the catfish was crispier. The sauce for this dish was yummy, and the green beans complemented it well. read more

Ok so the first Nara I tried was cypress and now I went to humble and ordered my fave Tom yum soup. The broth is yummy. But all in my soup was some chicken. 3 huge chunks of tomatoes and mushroom.. I ordered a large it was like thrown together I needed to cut everything down and then add my own onion and cilantro . Meh for 13$ Fried rice was good as always. I'd give them another try but maybe avoid soup on take out like that. I'll return though to sit in and order some other faves to see and update read more

This makes me sad to say. Nara used to be one of my favorite restaurants in the area. We used to go/order a few tines a week. Tonight's meal was one star. The chicken in my dinner was so overcooked that it could not be cut. The sauce was flavorless. The waiter never checked back and took 16 minutes after the dinner was finished. He was on his phone at the bar area, and only three tables were occupied. Makes me sad. read more

Incredible Thai food! Great service and food is high quality and so many options. If you like curry you can control the spice level. Pream was our server and she explained the menu and helped make our selections. We will definitely be back!!!! read more

Have came here twice now and tried the Simmered Beef Massaman Curry today, was delicious! Our server Melanie was great and very kind, such a calm atmosphere. Great place! read more

One of the best Thai food that I've had locally. The spices blend very well with the protein. Enjoyed a Thai beer with our meal the second time around. This is now a "go to place" when in the mood for something filling. Portions are great. Love the variety in protein options. Service is friendly. Definitely recommend! read more

Delicious mango sticky rice! It's also beautiful- I wasn't a fan of the yellow curry - I feel like it was missing vegetables and didn't have much flavor depth. The service was very kind it was very clean and friendly The pad Thai was delicious it didn't come out sticky and there was enough sauce to coat all the noodles I love the lime garnish. The Thai iced tea? My god I love Thai iced tea happy we found a place in humble with Thai food! read more

Solid thai food for the area. Thai tea is good but expensive. The spicy cat fish is really good. Everything else is pretty standard.

Food is on point for authentic Thai food. Great fried spring rolls and red curry to die for! Excellent service by Emily and I will be coming back. I've only had door dash from here but tonight was in person and I will now be a regular here! read more

Food is delicious and the quality is there too. I highly recommend over most Thai restaurants that I've eaten

Delicious food. Do not underestimate the level of spice, thought I was good at 3 kicked my a$$. The drunken noodles were one of the recommendation from the server, did not disappoint. The green bottled beer was tasty. Gem hidden in atas! read more

I love the Tom Yum soup with shrimp and the yellow curry. The soup is a thin broth with tons of flavor. I get it at a level 3 spicy, same as the yellow curry. read more

Really love this restaurant and have been coming for about fifteen years now. The pad Thai is my go to and I have been ordering it for years. One complaints is I wish there was a bit more consistency when different chefs are preparing the food. Sometime my pad Thai is so dry it has almost no flavor and the noodles stick together too much. Also I've gotten medium spice many times and sometimes it'll be not too spicy and others, like today, it's so spicy that it isn't enjoyable. I think the chefs need to all cook these recipes according to a standardized recipe and the spice levels should definitely be more consistent. Besides that I do love the food I just wish their was more consistency. read more

Nara Thai - Humble - Pad Thai - Thai Near Me - Humble, Texas

Terrible. I usually don't leave reviews but this place was bad. Waitress was at the bar talking to some guy instead of attending us. I asked for noodles in my soup twice because she forgot then another girl brings us the wrong noodles on the side (wasn't second girls fault at all, she actually took them off the bill). Soup was awful. Just look at the photo it's full of oil and I don't know what that is floating under there. My boyfriend's pad kee mao was cold as well. We rushed out of there and the bill was $50... too expensive to be so bad. read more

Nara Thai - Humble - Tom yum soup, glass noodles I didn't ask for. - Thai Near Me - Humble, Texas

Delicious! We love the spicy catfish, pad Thai, red curry with chicken and pineapple, and the basil rice.

First time eating here, and could be due to the COVID-19, but after reading all the great reviews, I was disappointed. I'll start with the good first. Green chicken curry - very good. I got medium spice and was perfect. Chicken pad thai - very good, again medium spice. Now the bad..... Orange chicken - same i would expect from a Chinese buffet. Wonton Soup - was ok Beef skewers - jerky is easier to chew. Fresh roll (fresh spring roll) - while i ordered shrimp they sent chicken (again very dry) and there was no mint or cilantro. I thought that was the norm? This entire meal came out to a little more than $70 with tax and tip. (Not all items ordered are pictured). read more

Ambiance: 4/5 Nice quite ambiance inside the restaurant. The decorating is there but pretty sparse. I think it's smart they have paper table cloth so that it's easily replaceable but it takes away from the cloth tablecloth "feel." Not a big deal if they do it for a family that has small kids (so that crayons can be used to draw on it), but it'd be nice to not have it for an all adult group. Food: 4.5/5 The food never disappoints. I've tried countless dishes here (see pics), and there really isn't anything I'd say NOT to try. They are all so flavorful and authentic (speaking from having had Thai food with Thai friends at other places, such as New York City, that have amazing Thai food- so I have a pretty good standard to compare with). My favorite would have to be the larb gai, though. If you've never had it, it's a must try and staple of Thai cuisine. Service: 4/5 I really like the service. I think they are very respectful in that they do the Thai salutation (hands together near the head) and they are quite attentive. My only complaint is how clearly unhappy they are when using a coupon (that we got from restaurant.com). I think that takes away from the professionalism of the service. Price: 4/5 Dishes are very appropriately priced (chicken satay- only $7). Overall, it's a bit on the higher side, but for The quality of food, I think it's worth it. read more

Good food and quick service every time. I only did take out so I have no real commentary on that.

I had the Panama curry it was very good. I look forward to coming back to try their Pad Thai

Hidden gem. After trying for the first time a week ago, I have already ordered twice for delivery. Flavors and spices just hit. The Yellow curry soup is delicious is my fav. read more

My experience at this restaurant was bad, the food prices are high, the quality of service was so-so. The worst of all is that the bathrooms were completely dirty, as well as the floors. I don't understand how they can have a business and there isn't a city inspector to supervise them. The quality has dropped a lot. read more

We finally found a great Thai restaurant without driving into Houston! We came here to celebrate my birthday a day late with family members. The place is stylish, very clean and well-appointed. The service was friendly and efficient. Impressed so far. We had Yellow Curry, Pad Thai, Pad See Mao, and pineapple fried rice. Everything was fresh, fragrant & flavorful as great Thai food should be. I broke my first visit rule & went straight to 5 stars. We will definitely be back! read more

Nara Thai - Humble - Bar area-wine & beer. - Thai Near Me - Humble, Texas

A birthday tradition for my family and I. Most of our birthdays are celebrated here. The food is consistently good and the service is friendly and accommodating. The chrysanthemum tea is delicious and a must try. I always get the mango shrimp. It's refreshing and satisfying. My family gets the pad Thai and soups. The creamy one with mushrooms. Today we tried a dessert. The custard with rice pudding. They are unique and light. I enjoyed them. read more

Food was good, service was very, very slow, Where are the owners??? 5-6 workers in the front of the restaurant, most looking at their phone, only one person with the title "Server" so therefore the others just stood around looking at their phone. I can handle heat so I thought I would try #3 spice level right above medium and oh my word, YIKES!!! , it was sooooooooo hot/spicy, it ruined my meal, but I ate it, Pineapple Shrimp Curry, can't wait to return to try the mild or medium to taste that great flavor, my stomach was boiling for hours. I will never try #3 spice level again and who in the world could try the #5 spice level, only a dead person, I can't imagine what that would taste like, maybe they just bring you the spice bowl to eat just the condensed peppers, because you aren't going to be able to taste the food at all. Well this was our second time coming to this restaurant, service was better the first time and our food was good both times but I had to try the spicier level, so done with that, next time back to mild medium and hopefully the owner or a manager that cares will be there to make sure that all of the workers stay off the phones, these new smart phones have ruined the world, just look around you everywhere you go and people are staring at their phones. I hate it, I am trying to keep mine put away. A total waste of time. Jesus is coming soon. read more

Had a great dinner at Nara Thai on West Lake Houston. The food was excellent and i really appreciated the friendly service. Thanks Chris E. for taking care of my family! read more

We ate here last night - having the Thai Kalamari, Spring Rolls, Pad Thai, and Seafood Salad (Yum Talay). The ambience of the restaurant was very enjoyable. The server, Narciso, was very helpful and attentive to our needs. The food was delicious, served quickly and reasonably priced. We also received discounts before happy hour. read more

We ordered Curry puffs, Pad Thai, Thai style Pad Kra Pow. They were all simply delicious. Cute Asian wall arts, open concept, and pretty clean inside. Our server was very friendly and helpful. She occasionally checked on us without disturbing our dining experience. We will definitely go back. read more

Nara Thai - Humble - Simply delicious. - Thai Near Me - Humble, Texas

The poor man noodles are always tasty as long as they aren't spicy! I'm a wimp so when I saw the skull and crossbones for a heat level option I about cracked up! And the crab angels are some of the best I've had. And their Tractor sodas are good too! Non-GMO & organic! Service is always good too and the one time they made mine spicy I did make sure to tell them the next time to not do any spicy heat! It's nice to have a tasty Thai place close to home. read more

I have been a loyal customer with this location for about 2 months now until my most recent visit. I was the only customer dining in at the moment, and an employee named Michaela who wasn't even the waiter servicing me took a photo of my receipt saying "Bruh someone email her tell her she a pos". This is HIGHLY unacceptable given that my personal information was on that receipt. read more

Nara Thai - Humble - a note with a pen on it - Thai Near Me - Humble, Texas

Amazing service and amazing food!!! We've been coming here for awhile now and we are never disappointed.

Decent Thai food in the Northeast Houston/Lake Houston area. We had their vegetarian options- panang curry with tofu and pad thai with tofu. The Panang curry came with steamed rice and the curry only had carrots and tofu in it- I prefer my dishes to have many types of vegetables in it like Thai Gourmet's recipe. Generally speaking, this a a nice option for Thai Dine in. There aren't many Thai options in this area, so when we tried this place, we were satisfied. Would recommend medium spice levels, otherwise the food is not spicy at all. Ambience is nice- it's quiet and large for a Thai restaurant. Would recommend to others, plenty of parking, and TIP: Bahama Bucks afterwards is a good idea! read more

Okay so a few thinks to say about Nara Thai. First, it was my first time ever trying pad Thai and I thought it was too sweet. Okay, now that we got the only bad part done with, let's continue. First of all, we were told by the employees that they are struggling to hire on new employees. That being said, I overheard that there were people waiting to get their to go orders for over an hour and a half.....SO if I can give you any advice....don't order to go during busy dinner hours....even DoorDash people were standing around forever. Since visiting that first time I go frequently since and order fresh rolls to go. I haven't had more than about a 5 minute wait, but take into consideration that I only order fresh rolls. We ordered the fresh rolls (pictured below) and they're the best spring rolls that I've found in our Houston area. Seriously so good. And the peanut sauce? To DIE for. My boyfriend got a chicken appetizer and it was really good!! He also got Thai tea and it was super yummy and sweet. This is my new spring roll place (they call them fresh rolls), but just watch out for to go ordering and the wait on that! read more

The food is always on point. Honestly never had an issue of any kind in 6+ visits. Pretty casual spot and doesn't feel stuffy at all.

We used to frequent Nara several times a month. While it's been a couple of years, we were back in the area and had to stop in at Nara. Great service, great food, reasonable prices. We wish we lived closer. read more

It wasn't bad but it wasn't the best either I've had better when I think pad kee Mao I'm thinking big leafy sweet basil with tomato's with a nice spiciness to it but yeah that's not what I got It was not giving me authentic Thai so it's a No for me read more

Ordered pananag curry, garlic chicken, pad thai noodles & watered down iced thai coffee. Food was terrible. The server forgot one of our pad thai noodles ("their #1 best seller) too and I wish I didn't remind her. Overall, I do NOT recommend. The one star is for aesthetics of the restaurant as it is nice and big. We went down the road to Baan Thai Cuisine... read more
