Tom YUM!
Sadia H.

Been meaning to try Thai Nara for a while ... and it was worth the wait! Our waitress was so kind and attentive. The restaurant is small, clean but well-lit and they are generous with the AC. We ordered the spring rolls. They were mediocre but better with the sauces. My niece had the chicken steamed dumplings that came four to an order. The fried snapper was amazing! The Tom Yum was good! I was not expecting much as I have had Tom Yum at other Thai places in Elmhurst, Qns. and was not impressed. The fried rice was good and so were the drunken noodles. The mango salad was delicious! Tipping is included and our bill for the dishes was $120. The portions run a little small but Halal is awesome!

Thai Iced Tea
Fawzia N.

To start off with the interior, it is decorated very beautifully. My family and I ate here in the evening, and the lighting was very dim. The service was good. The waitress was very patient and polite, and as someone who feels nervous ordering, she made it very easy and comfortable. The food also came out very fast. I had the Pad Kee Mao, and it was very tasty! I don't know what to say about it, the taste was different as I've never had Thai food, but it was very delicious. The noodles were boiled perfectly. The vegetables and eggs added great flavor. There was actually spice in there, and I eat a lot of spice, so this worked out for me. I usually have to end up adding more spice, but this was a good amount for me. My sister had the General Tso's chicken, which I do not have a picture of. However, it tasted good. The chicken was crispy on the outside and was very well coated. My only issue was that it was a little bit on the sweeter side, so after a few bites of her dish, I couldn't eat it anymore. But that's just me and my preference. Although I wasn't a big fan of the Thai Iced Tea, my sister and cousins found it refreshing and tasty. Once again, my preference as I don't really like drinks that have a taste of vanilla. I added a few images of my food and a picture of my clean plate to show proof of how good it was!

Tom Yum Fried Rice, Tom Yum Soup, Thai Fried Rice
Fateha A.

Got Tom yum shrimp soup ($7), Tom yum fried rice, & 1 Thai fried rice (no spice besides black pepper). Both fried rice are $14, & we got beef for both. Both the Tom yum dishes are really spicy & contain bell peppers. Really good otherwise. The Thai fried rice was perfect for me. Not spicy at all. Their fried rices & Tom yum soup are really good.

After a very long time I get to try their food again . It was great actually. I ordered thai soup, iced bubble tea & beef sizzling. Everything was good , I wished more beef on the sizzling then too much vegetables! I was disappointed! You can see the price are reasonable & the portion was ok. Posting some new pics of the food .

Panang Curry with beef
Najwa G.

Thai Nara has some fantastic food that is also halal and very reasonably priced. I had some food both to stay and to go and everything was great. It's also so nice to see a restaurant that clearly a neighborhood staple that does a lot for their community and vice versa. Some dishes that stood out to me were the basil fried rice and the pad thai (with chicken). All in all, I will 110% be back.

Fried Firecracker Shrimp Roll
Puspita E.

Food/Drinks: Overall, the food was delicious, although we weren't really the biggest fan of the Crispy Chicken (Peanut Sauce) as it was just way sweeter than we expected. The Fried Firecracker Shrimp Rolls were also a lot smaller than we expected given its price. However, the Thai Iced Tea is probably the best we've had. It has this beautiful sweetness and refreshing taste. The noodles were also fantastic. Each dish was very similar but had a few unique components. Personally, the Pad Kee Mao was definitely my favorite. The noodles were very filling and were the exact taste we were looking for. Service: The service was slightly slow, which makes sense since it was only one person manning the place and one chef working in the back. There were quite a few people there so service was expected to be slightly on the slower side. However, we were surprised to see that our orders came way later than that of another table who came in a good 20-30 minutes after us. They had already gone through half of their meal before we could even get our main dishes. Ambiance: It's a small and packed restaurant in the middle of Broadway. It's cozy and feels like home which I really liked. The bathroom also has a bodna for Muslim customers which is very accommodating. Overall, the place is nice and I'd probably go back again if I'm in the area, but the service time isn't ideal and I'd probably stick to just the noodles and Thai Iced Tea next time.

Spicy Chicken Wings
Nafiza T.

2.5 stars The food was good but the ambience is not a vibe. I felt really bad for the one employee that was working there but it was a lot of noises and smells in the seating area -- I was just really off put by the experience the entire time. The employee was really sweet and took good care of us. But the working conditions for the kitchen safe didn't seem the best. At one point the fire alarm went off, unsure for the cause but it was extremely loud. The food was good but the drunken noodles and the pad Thai lacked flavor and wasn't the best I've ever tried. The spicy chicken wings was amazing and so well seasoned.

Menu

Nice and quaint Thai Halal restaurant. The cook was very friendly and we talked about our asian similarities. He also took some suggestions on making real duck. Food came fresh. I'm amazed to see that there's a heath code grade posted outside their restaurant. I was put at ease that the food is handled well. I ordered a Thai iced tea and drunken noodles. I would definitely come back when I pass by New York. The price is appropriate and the portions was also appropriate for me.

Menus
Fazal R.

Went for lunch after a long drive in New York City. Looked up a nice Halal Thai restaurant and this came on top of the list. Out front shows a grade A on their health code. The host was very friendly and so as the cook. Not a lot of people in the restaurant with quaint seating options, makes it a lot peaceful to eat our meals. I can say every meal was cleared we did not need any take out boxes. My little one enjoyed her Thai iced tea, tom yum soup, spring rolls and half of the drunken noodle dish. I had the Thai basil beef fried rice, spicy Thai fried chicken wings (not too impressed since it has the same consistency as the store bought) and Thai soup with chicken. My wife had the drunken noodles with shrimp. Definitely a place to return when we get to visit New York.

Really good service and food here. I came here with a bunch of friends to celebrate my birthday and we were satisfied with the quality of the food.

Fried Fish
Suzi H.

The food was delicious, we ordered whole fried fish, steamed vegetables, omelette and papaya salad. Finger licking good food. The restaurant can be easily reached by subway or bus, very strategic . Huge compliments to the chef. Both chef and Nadia the waitress were friendly . The price was very affordable

My garlic naan was SO good, has a crunch on one side but airy soft to bite. Unlimited little rice bowls?! This will be our go-to Indian after our first experience.

The food was good but I don't know that I'd make a special trip out of it. The paneer is homemade but I've had creamier paneer elsewhere. I was impressed by the tender chicken in the biryani but could have used with a bit more of it. The curry also comes with plain rice so we had plenty of carbs.

Its a small mom and pop shop so I was excited for its authentic and variety of Indonesian dishes. Their menu was quite big so I appreciated the QR code to see pictures. Started off with the Sate Padang (A4) which were beef tongue skewers in a curry-like sauce. Interestingly the skewers had different textures from tender pieces to harder/chewier cuts. The sauce was spicy and less creamy than a traditional curry that went well with the rice cakes. The Nasi Ayam Goreng Urap (R15) featured fried chicken as well as mixed veggies with shredded coconut. Loved a sweet-savory part of the veggies and how the coconut gave it an extra chew. Rice, chicken, and sambal was the perfect combo for each bite. The Kari Bihun (N7) had the rice vermicelli that I was craving. Their curry soup was spicy and aromatic. Loved how the vermicelli was cooked just right and stayed intact/chewy throughout my meal. Enjoyed the mix of tofu skin, tofu puff, fish cakes, fish balls, egg, and beansprouts! I was getting too full to check out their desserts/drinks but definitely want to try their cendol next time! It was popping late on a weekend so service was alright. Took a while to place our orders but food came out at a reasonable time!

You'll find yourself lost in the hidden gems of Levant Lebanese and Egyptian culture. Made my journey to Levant for the first time and it was a pleasure. What got my attention the chicken and beef shawarma that was spinning on the counter dripping with fats, juices and flavor. Right when we got seated, the manager brought us freshly prepared, piping hot pieces of Falafel. Very good and well prepared. Very nice of him. Then So I ordered myself their chicken shawarma. The chicken was a little dry but it was still flavorful and delicious. A little hint of Sumac. What I would recommend is management to take a little more precautions on their customers. We ordered their famous Mixed Feteer, which is basically like their house pizza. And it took about 20 minutes to make and I totally understand that it gets a little busy but we have to prioritize the first customers all the way to last. But I would love to give my love and appreciation to management for serving a complimentary plate of their house sweets. It was heaven! We had their Kunefa and chocolate baklava. Mouth was watering to the extreme. I would definitely say that giving Levant in Astoria is well worth the drive if you're coming from out of town like myself but they offer really high quality Lebanese and Egyptian cuisine.

The food has always been freshly prepared, in large portions, and cooked quite well. I'm thankful that has not changed much. On my most recent visit, we got a Mix Grilled and Vegetarian Plate to share between four people. There was so much food that we did not have dessert next door as originally planned. Prices are higher nowadays, but you are receiving great value for what you pay. Both chicken shawarma and the beef kufta from the Mix Grilled tasted great, especially with the provided zesty white sauce. I also added hot sauce to mine, which made it more satisfying. The chicken kebab was not bad, it had a nice char, but slightly dry. All of the accompanying humus (a bit salty), salad, rice, and garlic pita were excellent too. For the Vegetarian Plate, though good, I would like the falafels to be fluffier. The best things I enjoyed on the plate was the fried eggplants and baba ghanosh. It also comes with cous cous, which was good. Fresh middle eastern cuisine, made with quality ingredients and care, this restaurant may not be my first choice in Astoria because it's not as sexy as some of the other offerings, but I'm glad that they are still around when I just want a quality meal at a reasonable price.
