    Cozy little Thai restaurant that offers lots of authentic and delicious dishes. The flavor and presentation are top notch, with decent portions and good value. The interior is very small with limited seating, but a nice and quiet ambiance. The staff are very friendly.

    Finally this place is opened. I've been looking for a Thai restaurant, ever since the previous location in Pasadena changed owners and he opened this one. The food is super delicious with the right amount of sweetness. I tried their tofu roll and it's a must to eat with their peanut sauce. The service was great! The owner ensured we had a great experience and the food came out quick. This is my new go to Thai restaurant in Arcadia.

    Thara 8 Thai cuisine has excellent Thai food. The restaurant is very small so you might have to wait. We fortunately arrived at a good time. The ambience is charming. We ordered chicken pad thai, tofu drunken chicken, and pineapple fried rice. All three were spot on. The pad thai wasn't too sweet, the fried rice was very tasty, and the drunken chicken was flavorful but quite a bit spicy. The service was fast and friendly. The pricing reasonable Be aware that they don't have a public restroom. Overall, highly recommend.

    Boat noodle soup

    Decided to try out this new place with friends. There is plenty of parking in the back. It's located right across the street from the Arcadia Public library and in the same block as 85 degrees bakery and Xian Foodie. Inside, it's very small with only two small tables and window high seats. The lady at the register was friendly but service was mid. Maybe cause they're new but they had us come to them to place the order and didn't refill our water. Water was in small paper cups. Everything was in takeout containers. We tried four dishes and they tasted pretty good but portions are rather small for the price, even the lunch specials. - Golden bags ($8.95): 8 pieces, they look smaller in person. Very crispy and inside was savory with meat and mushrooms. 4/5 - Red Curry Chicken ($13.95): lunch special and had salad, 2 fried dumplings and rice. The takeout container had empty sections which made the portion feel even smaller. Dumplings taste like the frozen kind. Salad dressing was decent. Curry was pretty good, not too spicy and had some zucchini and bamboo shoots. 3/5 - Pad Thai ($13.95): also lunch special and only comes with salad and 2 pieces of fried dumplings. Strangely, they put the salad with the Pad Thai. The noodles were saucy but leans very sweet. 3/5 - Boat Noodle Soup ($15.95): average portion that wouldn't be very filling for one person. Had some slices of beef. Kind of reminds me of pho. Pretty spicy. Overall the portions are not big and was not filling for the four of us. There are better Thai places for better portions in the area.

    Crab Fried rice

    This is my new favorite local Thai restaurant. 5/5 Golden Bags My whole family loves this fun appetizer. It is crispy and filled with ground chicken, mushroom and bamboo shoots. My picky eater did not mind the vegetables. It comes with a side of sweet and sour sauce. 4/5 Eggplant Curry Includes eggplants, bell peppers, basil, and choice of protein (I chose tofu) cooked in green curry and coconut milk. The curry sauce was perfect consistency, not too thick or watery, and the ingredients were generously portioned including the rice! When I order curry at other restaurants they usually have curry a la carte or they give very little rice. I will definitely try their other curry dishes next time. I have a feeling that I will find a favorite here. 3.5/5 Crab Fried Rice The rice was flavorful, fluffy, and not too oily. There was a good amount of crab, but I think I will try it with another protein next time. Pad See Ew with Tofu This was made with Chinese broccoli and had large chunks of tofu. I did not get to try it, so I cannot really comment the taste.

    First time coming to this place restaurant. Place is pretty small and can only accommodates for take out but the space is very welcoming. Menu is pretty extensive nonetheless, they even got a couple lunch specials that run from 11-3! Ordered around 5 items mostly pan fried noodles dishes and a couple appetizers and a Thai ice tea. The speed they got the order out was great with only a 15 (more like 12 min) wait. Enjoyed the food but the golden bags and Mama Kee Mao were the star of the show! Overall very filling for a good price. Definitely will be coming back around to try other things including their soups.

    Golden bags, a round version of an egg roll. Best appetizer ever!

    Formerly Suriya Thai of Pasadena, now Thara 8 of Arcadia! I'm so glad this place is closer to me now! I have been waiting to try my favorite appetizer again for so long. Now that they have soft opened, I had to get down here to have them again! They are still as loud and crunchy as I remember! Right now there is only a bench along the wall to sit, so it's take out only. When they grand open, there should be some more seating. We ordered pad see ew and some yellow curry. My guest raved that it was better than noodle world. And that he would bring his Mom and Daughter because he lives alot closer than I do. We also had excellent, friendly service the whole time. Will definitely come back!

    Swing by for a quick fix at my favorite Thai Place Thara8 never disappoint. I am Thai and this place serves AUTHENTIC THAI FOOD!!! The egg noodle with beansprout is spot on and the soup is so simple but perfect to sooth my tummy on the cold day. The roti with condense milk is so fluffy, crispy and right amount of sweet. Now.......the best of the best of the best of thr evening is.......SUPER FLAVORFUL THAI ICED TEA!!! DELICIOUS!! the owner secretly told me they adjusted the recipe to make it stronger specially for tea lovers.....and I am one of them!! On top of everything, the service is so superb and the food was fast! The place is clean and simple, music was nice. 10 out of 10 for me!

    We ordered pad Thai and pad see ew Togo from this place and both noodles were extremely SOGGY! I know ordering Togo isn't always the best, but we only live two mins away, so it was basically like we were eating it fresh. I can't stand eating soggy noodles so I didn't even finish it. We ordered level 5 spicy and it wasn't spicy AT ALL! My bf and I can eat really spicy foods so we made sure to order level 5 since they said 5 is the spiciest. There wasn't a hint of spice in the noodles. The pad Thai was also lacking in color and flavor.

You walk in thinking, "I'll just grab a quick bowl," and suddenly there's a noodle master stretching dough like he's training for the Olympics. Their Lanzhou-style noodles? Fresh, chewy, and honestly a little too good--they'll ruin instant ramen for you forever. The Lan noodle soup is so rich and savory. The died mixed noodle feels like a warm hug... if hugs came with chili oil and a kick that sneaks up on you. It's a small, busy spot, so yeah, you might wait--but don't worry, the line moves fast. Plus, it gives you time to emotionally prepare for choosing your noodle shape. Thin? Wide? Triangle? This is not a decision to take lightly. One wrong move and you'll be thinking about it halfway through your bowl like, "I should've gone wider."

    I like how they have expanded their menu with additional options other than simply noodle options…read more We tried their pork pan fried dumplings (3/5) since the skin was overpoweringly thick, but the filling was decent. They have a small and large sweet and sour chicken rice plate. I had gotten the small size just to try it out, but it was surprisingly good (5/5). The pork sandwich bun was decent (4/5) since the beef was tasty but the sandwich bun could be better. We also had the traditional beef noodle soups with either the wide flat and triangle ones. You can't go wrong with these freshly made pulled noodles, and they are very hearty portions. Flavor is good and the beef is very tender. The smashed cucumbers were decent also (4/5), but nothing spectacular about them. Service is very quick, attentive and pleasant. This is a good go to spot for a quick meal. The dining room doesn't seat a lot of people so try not to come during busy dining hours on weekends to avoid a long wait.

For him he thinks that was a good enough portion because it tasted a bit too creamy for him. For me it wasn't enough! It was soooo deliciousssss. Dry noodles here for the win! Worth the $18! Service was okay, we didn't needed too much this time around but they have enough people that you can wave down. And they have the whole water for yourself to refill. Would definitely come back.

Worried about dry noodles? Don't fret, as they truly pile on the sauce that is both tasty and addictive! Service was satisfactory. There wasn't much to do as we order our own food, but they give you your cutlery and a jug of water at the start so there wasn't a need to ask for anything anyway. The setup was okay. It felt a little cramped and waiting for the toilet while staring at a dirty trash bin wasn't the best start to the meal, but given the space it's understandable. I got the Deluxe Nagoya Mazesoba and my wife got the Original Mazesoba. The original is great but I specifically wanted the seaweed and soft-boiled egg. After a fun mix, I took my first bite and did not stop stuffing myself until the last noodle strand was gone. Seriously, I don't know what they add to it that makes it so addicting but I could not stop eating it. I'm a fast eater usually but even my wife was surprised with my remaining half after her first 2 bites. The sauce would usually be too heavy, but the accompaniments allows the dish to balance itself. It was also not too dry, which is a common worry I have for mixed noodles. At the end of the meal they offer a complimentary rice to mix in with the sauce, though personally I would have preferred a broth as I didn't need the extra carb, but a light broth would have been a great finish. I can see this being a craving, so beware, try it at your own risk... but also run there now!

Every bite was flavorful and satisfying! The lamb skewers, beef skewers, beef shank noodles, lamb & carrot dumplings, and oil-splashed noodles are all highly recommended. Everything was tender, aromatic, and clearly prepared with great care and attention to flavor and ingredients. Spice lovers will definitely be happy here, but even if you normally don't eat spicy food, you'll still find yourself going back for bite after bite.

Especially after a long day, having a hot bowl of their oil-splashed noodles feels genuinely comforting. If you enjoy unique Xi'an cuisine, I highly recommend giving this place a try. You can taste that the flavors have not been overly adjusted just to appeal to the masses. Instead, the restaurant preserves the authentic spirit, warmth, and bold flavors of traditional Xi'an cooking.

Overall, most of the dishes were solid. The only one I could have skipped was the chicken and potato dish...it just didn't stand out compared to everything else. I think this was the dish that we took leftovers since everyone else also felt a similar way regarding that dish. The skewers were well-cooked, but the cumin flavor was a bit overpowering for my taste, and it lingered longer than I would've liked. With that said, there were definitely some highlights. I really loved the shrimp fried rice and the beef dumplings, but my favorite was the wide noodle dish with mixed meats. It was incredibly flavorful and hit all the right notes. I actually ordered it after noticing another table enjoying the same dish. Honestly, their reactions said everything and it absolutely lived up to the expectation. The owner was warm and welcoming, which added to the overall experience. The restaurant itself is very clean, with bright lighting and a modern aesthetic that makes it feel inviting. Parking is also convenient, with plenty of space available in the back garage. All in all, it's a spot I'd recommend for anyone looking to try authentic flavors from the Xi'an region.
