Recommended by a Thai friend who insisted that this restaurant was authentic!!! She said prices r a bit higher but it's worth it. We decided to splurge a little but surprisingly prices aren't as high as I thought. I gotta say, the portions are kinda small. But they do use quality ingredients so imo the prices are more than worth it. Services were awesome. They had enough staff to go around and check on every table. The food was so damn good! The ambience was very fancy with nice Thai decors. The utensils were also very impressive! I think this place far exceeded my expectations and we will be back for sure! read more

I came here super close to closing with a date in January 2026. This place is absolutely beautiful, and the ambiance was great. I got fried fish with some mango salad. The fish was alright, but not too deep. The mango salad was great and refreshing. For the food though, it's really pricey. But it's absolutely gorgeously decorated, and I'd bring someone here for a high-end time. read more

Great place, just the prices are so hard for my co-workers and I to continue to go here. This is the closest to our workplace, but now we might have to find a new place. We didn't even do delivery and this place was pricey! Portions are super small when we ordered it to-go. We were celebrating my co-workers birthday, but that was disappointing. Well she really liked the added mango and rice I got her! At least the birthday girl was happy! The restaurant itself is gorgeous on the inside. I used to come here years ago and they have definitely added more decor since then. Inside feels like you are in Thailand, so nice job on building that part out to perfection. Service there is great when you are there, but it seems even after the price we paid they were going to charge extra for all these different things we wanted. We asked for some hot sauces, but she said extra. We're like okay, we are good. They gave us a bunch of chili peppers, so my friends were fine with that. read more

Beautiful restaurant with lots of cultural decor. We experienced wonderful service from start to finish. I ordered my go to crab fried rice. It was amazing. My food came out hot, portions were a good size for the price and lots of crab in it. I love they gave enough crab for every bite. The food presentation was lovely as well. The table and booth seating was clean (I didn't notice any crumbs in cushion). We were able to pay at the table individually with no problem. It's definitely in the $17-30 per person range but it's quality and comfort food. Great Thai spot! read more

The portions were fair given the price, food was tasty, and the presentation was beautiful. Ambiance was charming with colors of gold, red, and floral touches. Service was kind, and you kind of have to nudge them, but they were polite. read more

I came here for dinner and the night I was there they had live thai music and dancing in the whole restaurant that night. It was quite a surprise and a beautiful cultural experience. So glad Siam Nara is still open in Mira Mesa as so many good Asian restaurants have closed in San Diego. read more

Beautiful decor, nice vibe, great food and friendly service! Bookmark this place for my favorite Thai restaurant. The portions are generous and served with stylish dishes. Tastes are right on spot. Will definitely come back to try out more of their dishes. read more

Siam Nara - Thai Near Me - San Diego, California

Came here craving meat, but ended up being wowed even more by the veg! Beautiful decor abounds at Siam Nara, from the hanging flora (plastic, but stylishly arranged) to golden Thai ornamentation as well as Christmas accoutrements - I enjoyed the eclectic ambiance from the moment we walked in. The menu is extensive, and the attention to style detail extends to the golden plates, intricately decorated sauce containers and lovely finishing touches such as fresh orchids arrayed atop our entrees. The Sunrise Salad was excellent, featuring a sweet and tangy combination of julienned mango, onion, lettuce, tomato, cilantro and cashews held together with fresh fish sauce and lime. It would have been even better with a bit of spice. The protein was fried shrimp, which unfortunately was way too thickly breaded for me so I'd skip that component next time. We also got the chicken satay, which had a generous portion of tender, juicy, gently curried chicken paired with peanut satay and a light cucumber sauce. Yum! There are many more intriguing menu options (tamarind shrimp, massaman beef, oh my!) that I can't wait to try in the future! read more

Siam Nara - Sunrise Salad with chicken satay and crab fried rice in the background - Thai Near Me - San Diego, California

The food was good and tasty. I had the mango soda, tom kah soup, pad thai crab and mango sticky rice. The soup was comforting and was creamy, sweet, sour and savory. The pad thai was well made, but the sauce needed more depth. Dessert was very good. It was not too sweet and the mango was fresh and perfectly ripe. Service in the beginning was attentive and friendly and the owner took our order. However, it was a busy Saturday night and there wasn't enough wait staff. We had to flag the staff a few times to clear our table, bring our desserts and pay for our meal. The ambiance is comfortable and casual. read more

QUICK TAKE// Delicious, aesthetically plated Thai food that is a solid spot for Mira Mesa. FOOD// We got the SOM TUM WITH SALTED CRAB as an appetizer which is like a green papaya salad with som whole mini crabs in them. Honestly I wasn't sure how to eat the crabs so I just focused on the salad. I would probably just go with the the regular Som Tum next time - otherwise very delicious salad and nice lighter/fresher appetizer. We also go the GREEN CURRY and added mock duck in there - very delicious! My personal highlight was the KHAO SOI WITH DUCK - the portion was huge (definitely explains the $25.99 price) and it is for sure a shareable dish. SERVICE// We went at like a 7pm on a Tuesday night and there were quite a few tables and very few servers. While it did take a while to get our waters initially, once the food order was put in, everything came fairly quickly VIBES// Really aesthetic restaurant! I will also say the food presentation for all of their dishes really added to the theme of the restaurant. Would definitely be a restaurant I would take friends or family for a "nicer" Thai experience. I had heard they had done a major renovation and boyfriend said it has really come a long way from its previous looks. read more

the ambiance is great in here, it's very decorated and ornate. they had a wide selection for their menu and it was hard to decide on what to get! The suree's platter was definitely hard to pass it just looked stunning! a favorite was the pad see ew since the flavor was right up my alley. I wish the platter came with more sauce since I felt like the variety of things on that platter needed additional spruce of flavor since they were fried. Very nice service and attentive! Would come back! read more

This is a hidden gem and I don't know why I haven't written a review sooner. I have gone here several times both with a small group, and with very large groups. I love the crab Pad Thai, the Thai iced tea, and the mango sticky rice are all a go-to for me. We've also tried the platters which are very good, and several of the fish dishes. The fish that comes with The Tamarind sauce is crispy and tasty. We also love their Drunken Noodles. I love coming here and doing family style so we can try several different dishes, and I highly recommend doing that so you can taste a variety of things. I honestly can't say I've had a bad dish here, but I think the crab fried rice could use a little bit more flavor as it's a bit bland. The staff is always very nice and accommodating. The owner is often there and she will come and check on you to see how you are doing and if you are liking the food. Even with a very large party they can accommodate Separate checks which is very rare these days. I love the decor with all of the colorful flowers, an the gold statues. The gold dishes and fancy platters and cups are also a nice touch. They have one of those little robots that delivers the food to the table. It's named Bella Bot and sometimes talks, which is cute. Overall this is one of my favorite Thai restaurants, and I try to get there at least every few months. I would recommend checking it out, I've not heard anyone say that they dislike it. read more

My office colleagues wanted to try out some authentic Thai food. With a quick Yelp search, we were able to find Siam Nara in Mira Mesa. We were able to get a reservation for 20 people. As soon as we arrived, we were able to find parking without any issues. Once we entered the restaurant, we were seated without any delays. The ambiance of the restaurant was so nice. The decor was inspired by Thai culture. For food - I got the spicy basil vegan fried rice with veggies. My friend got the shrimp fried rice. They served us some delicious soup and salad for starters. This was all complimentary and extremely delicious. My food came out pretty quickly. The portion size was big. Also, it was in a beautiful golden platter. My friend's fried rice was in a real pineapple. The presentation was top notch. Both the dishes were yummy and rich in flavor. Everything about the place was authentic. Also, the staff is mostly traditional Thai. I highly recommend checking out this place! read more

I ordered the Thai spicy fried rice at Siam Nara and it was a complete disaster. The rice wasn't even fried -- it came out clumpy, wet, and stuck together like giant rice balls. No separation, no wok heat, no texture. Just a dense, mushy mound with a few random scraps of chicken and veggies tossed in. This was basically the worst Thai spicy fried rice I've ever had and honestly one of the worst purchases of my life. I've never seen a fried rice executed this poorly anywhere in San Diego. read more

Siam Nara was such a special, delicious, and beautiful treat! Popped in for dinner after birthday drinks with friends, and wow, it's just so gorgeous inside! Truly a touch of escapism. Each dish we ordered was delightful, and the service was prompt, despite the busy Saturday night. Looking forward to returning and trying something new! read more

The food and service were okay, but the metal tableware was extremely annoying. Everyone in our group hated the sound of metal spoons, forks, and knives scraping against metal plates. We had to eat very carefully just to avoid the noise, and whenever it happened, it completely ruined our enjoyment of the food. The restaurant clearly invested a lot in the decor, but it feels overdone and impractical. Because of this experience, we won't be returning. read more

I got a tom yum soup cup bc i wasnt too hungry. seasoning and spices were great, very authentic & pretty atmosphere, would love to come again! read more

I was up in Mira Mesa and was trying to decide between Thai and Vietnamese food. I chose this restaurant as it was next door to a Vietnamese place. I'm very glad I opted to come here. First of, the ambiance and atmosphere was quite nice. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The service was also great (first time I'd ever had a robot deliver my food to the table). I opted for the chicken satay appetizer and their green curry for my main dish. Portions weren't huge, but I still managed to take some food home for lunch tomorrow. I was very tempted to try the mango dessert, but I didn't leave any room. I will definitely be back to try more of their extensive menu. read more

Everything was super fresh and flavorful with great portions. We had the papaya salad, tom yum soup with shrimp and tofu, chicken satay and beef fried rice -- all amazing. Finished with mango sticky rice and Thai tea. No words can do this place justice! read more

I had high hopes for Siam Nara, but I was left disappointed :( The decor was beautiful, and the food presentation was wonderful. However, the food was disappointing. I ordered crying tiger appetizer, drunken noodles, and tom yum with shrimp hot pot soup. They came out with the steak first and it was sooo dry. I ordered a side of sticky rice to go with it and they gave me half a cup of hard, undercooked rice. The drunken noodles had good flavor, but the portion size was so small. We finally got our tom yum soup last, and after asking the waiter about where our order was. The flavor of the soup was really good, but I am disappointed that it came out last. The service was slow and they didn't refill my water. Prices are not cheap either, I was expecting a better experience. read more

This restaurant is so pretty! The decor and food presentation are amazing here. This was maybe my third time dinning here and it's always a great experience. We were seated for dinner immediately and served waters. They have those robot servers, but every place that has those still has a real waiter there to actually move the food from the robot to the table. Which is cool because I'm sure running these plates and stuff can get tiring. ANYWAYS. What we got: - Suree's Platter: Satay Chicken (2), Egg Roll (4), Rainbow Shrimp (2) Thai Wraps (3), Vegetarian Curry Puff (1), and Tofu Tod. - Pad Thai: I love a good pad Thai, and this one was great! - Mango Sticky Rice: sweet, sticky, the mangoes were the perfect amount of tart, it was perfect! As we left, I believe she's the owner of the restaurant gave us some Thai snacks and soaps! A WIN! read more

It has been a long time since I dropped in to Siam Nara for thai food (I feel like it was years back). The restaurant was beautifully decorated during the most recent visit. We had come here previously in the past but I didn't recall it being this extensively decorated. There were other patrons but not full to the max. Amusingly there was also a roboserver that served to smaller groups. Parking is plentiful as Siam Nara shares a plaza with several other restaurants. Bathroom was closeby where our table sat. We had a decently sized group that usually gets together (8-10). The rest of the table shared several dishes consisting of curry, stirfry, soup, and entrees. The thai iced tea looked amazing despite the sugary content and I even got a sip. There were many things I wasn't supposed to eat due to my condition at the time gestational diabetes, thyroid (avoiding gluten, dairy, soy), etc. I went for the options that were not too bad, as it's been AGES since I last ate them like - chicken pad thai, chicken satay with peanut sauce, and golden triangle. They were all delicious and tasty - and mind you, again, it's been ages since I had thai food. Service was nice - my food selections came first as they were appetizers and then the rest of the tables came. One person in group paid via card to get the points while the rest of us venmo'ed/zelled. We had a good time catching up over the meal to celebrate two pregnancies in the group. read more

My ratings are out of 5 stars App - Rainbow Shrimp, Marinated shrimp wrapped with egg noodles, golden fried, served with a sweet chili sauce. $12.99 (3/5) * The sauce is what gave it good taste, without it it was pretty mild flavor but very crunch and fun to eat! Dish 1 - Pad See Ew, steak, Wide rice noodles stir-fried with an egg, dark soy sauce, Chinese broccoli, and cilantro on top. $15.99 (4/5) * husband loved the mix of veggies, he didn't get spice but they offer it he thought it was so delicious. Dish 2 - E-San Classic Set: Kai Yang, BBQ Half chicken, crunchy shredded green papaya salad, steamed aromatic glutinous rice, and a special spicy dipping sauce. $28.99 (5/5) * so much left over, the meat was amazingly charred and fell off the bone, I wasn't a huge fan of the glutinous rice as I would've preferred just regular sticky jasmine rice. The dips and flavors were great and the papaya salad was delicious. Dessert - Mango Sticky Rice, Steamed glutinous rice aromatic coconut milk served with ripe mango, and generously sprinkled with toasted mung beans. $12.99 (4/5) * it delicious and amazing presentation, everything was very well done! Staff was kind and attentive! They filled our drinks when we asked and they answered all our questions. The space is lovely with clean spaces and beautiful decorations. The music is classical music and it was pleasant to dine in. read more

I'm giving a 4 because it is decorated well the food is okay the papaya salad had a musty taste due to old cabbage and the green curry was very watery and not very many ingredients the chicken was cut very thin and lacked any taste and was a very small portion food was not bad it was decent but I probably won't eat there again read more

The best Tom Yum soup I've had so far! It comes in a hot pot and tastes really good. We also tried their chicken pad thai, shrimp fried rice, beef pad see eu, green curry, eggplant with veggies and chicken string beans. We enjoyed all of it. We came here for dinner on a Monday.

Our friends recommended this place because they know the family who owns it! I'm happy we were able to visit on a Saturday night. There was no wait to be seated. It's located at the same plaza as seafood city so parking might be hard on a busy day. The restaurant is very pretty and well decorated. It feels homey and welcoming. The service was great and they kept checking in on us. They also have those service robots that bring you your food lol. We ordered the mild beef pad thai and a cup of their Tom yum soup. They have so many options on their menu including some yummy cocktails that I'll have to try next time I visit. The food comes out with really pretty dishware and utensils! Pad Thai is enough to serve 2 to feel comfortable. The Tom yum soup was also really delicious, very sour the way we like it. I'd get the dishes at medium spice next time! This place is also very affordable for a nice date night, I think we spent only $20 to feed 2 people. I'd visit again! read more

Came in on a Tuesday night with a party of nine. We were seated promptly. This place is beautiful inside and service is excellent. The staff is so friendly and playful. I can't handle spicy food so I always go with the pad Thai and this year was excellent. I had coworkers who had actually been to Thailand and said this food came so close to what they ate in Thailand. We also sampled many of the desserts. The FBI was a huge hit and of course the sticky rice with mango was delicious. You can't go wrong with anything here on the menu.
