Thara Thai Restaurant

Good, gluten free food! Just have to specify, can make nearly anything gluten free with a 2.99 charge (i believe)

Tasty food, no reaction. There is a $2 surcharge to have your dish prepared GF, including appetizers. They were busy when we visited but the food came within reasonable time, was accurate and delicious. Our bill seemed a little high but it was scrawled on a handwritten ticket so it was hard to be sure. Overall I’d recommend it as a safe and yummy option in the Chambana area.

The owner is extremely kind and very aware of allergens. She told me when she cooks gluten free she puts away gluten containing ingredients, to ensure safety. The food is amazing! Excellent Asian fusion, so plenty of options for your Asian food cravings.

- update -

I have now been living in Chambana for 5 years and I frequently eat at Thara Thai, I have never had a reaction. I am a highly reactive celiac, I once had to extend a vacation by 5 days because I was glutened so badly I was unable to move more than crawling from the bed to the toilet.

So anyone who says they have reacted to Thara Thai, I would suspect they have another unknown food allergy, or sensitivity.

I have ordered pad thai and fried rice a few different times now, made gluten free. The staff is knowledgeable and have no issues with it. Almost all of the menu can be made gluten free

My family and I ordered three portions of a gluten free and vegan version of pad Thai. It tasted fine, but I had a reaction. It also was nearly $80 before tip, as they charged extra for GF and veggies instead of eggs to make it vegan.

Awesome! Could not wait to come back. Best Thai food. They were super careful with my daughters dish to prepare and no problems. She had fried rice. Highly recommend.

I love the food at Thara Thai and always get fried rice. It's a major treat to be able to eat at this kind food when you have celiac disease because most Asian restaurants are off limits. The only reason I'm taking off a star is because Thara Thai has gotten so dang expensive. I was there in August of 2022 and my fried rice was $20 even, which was already a sizable price increase, but I was just there in October of 2022 and the same fried rice was $23.40 (so a 17% increase in two months when they'd already had a recent price increase); these prices are without tips.

Been here many times. They are really on top of allergens, very knowledgeable. Duck noodle soup and chicken pho are delicious, no reactions.

I did a take out order. When I called, they were extremely aware of allergens. They explained they make everything from scratch and could modify most dishes to be GF. The food was excellent and the portions were enough for two meals.

We stopped in last night after a wedding — I was starving and was so thankful the takeout was ready very quickly! It’s currently takeout only but they boxed everything up very nicely while piping hot, and stayed very hot even after we got back to our hotel.

I got the red curry (comes with rice) at the medium spice level. It definitely had a kick but was very delicious, and I didn’t have any trouble eating it. (However, if you’re not a spice lover, definitely go mild.) Red curry is one of my favorite dishes, I might even call it comfort food!

The woman who took our order was very friendly and cheerful — she helped me with the gluten free options and was overall just very pleasant to interact with. When I asked about a GF menu she came over to help me look over their regular menu and to let me know which things they could not make gluten free. (It’s always to have a majority of the menu available!)

I felt safe ordering from here and did not get sick after eating.

Staff was knowledgeable about their sauces, saying that they made them fresh on site other than what was on the table as a condiments. Also offered to bring a gluten free brand of soy sauce out. The chef came out to clarify my other allergies as well, and the dish we came up with was delicious. In the future I will note that all their curries have lime.

Very knowledgeable about what has gluten, most of the menu is OK and they are willing to modify classic dishes (such as Pad Thai) to make them gluten free. Best Thai food in the area and family run.
