Thai Nakarin

Very disappointed. First problem was that I ordered the «spicy basil» and there was almost no Basil in it. Secondly, having lived for a year in Thailand I can say that the food is highly Americanized and overly sweet. The food, however, is edible so I gave it 2 stars.

Went there on May 28, 2016. We ordered chicken red curry and Thai chicken fried rice. Food was excellent and reasonably priced around $ 10/​dish. Food arrived quickly and we had requested less oil on our chicken fried rice. The cook came to our table to confirm if about half the oil would be OK. Dish size is reasonable, not too big or small. I am adding some pics.

The service was excellent. The food was good. My experience with the server is the reason why I’m giving this rating a 5 stars. I had an issue with my soup being too spicy and even offered to order another one but he said it was okay and that they’ll make a fresh one that’s mild. He even brought out a spice jar in case we wanted to add our own amount to it. Very happy with my visit.

Not impressed. I couldn’t get on Unilocal to check reviews because of the poor wifi in this area before I walked in. We had just drove for three hours and we’re hungry. Mistake. Just don’t go, don’t bother. There are plenty of other places in town and up town. Just dont. Dirty, menu stinks, service is terrible and food is blah. Awww a terrible start to a mini staycation. Thank God it’s gotten better!

We came by for lunch around 2pm. The place had only one other table. Place was really empty.
We had the Thai fried rice and the Pad See Ew off the lunch menu.
The food over was good. We will prolly get take out next time. Interior could use some updating.
Overall, average to good!

tom yum thai hot extra veggies. yum.

I’ve been here three times now, and loved it every time. The only dish I have had is the Pad See Ew with tofu, and it’s so good that I haven’t tried anything else.
The ambiance of the place is a little unexpected for a Thai restaurant — it’s more like a pizza parlour. But don’t let that steer you away from enjoying a delicious meal. Also, the service is pretty good — I have only ever seen one waiter there, but he moves fast and seems able to take care of everyone.

I like this place. I have been here a handful of times. The owner/​server isn’t big on chit chat but he gets the job done. He seems kind of put out when you ask him to describe a dish which makes me wish they had descriptions of the dish in the menu, I hate bell peppers and mushrooms and my last dish had plenty of them. The food is good and healthy.

To describe this place in one word my review would be removed. I was there 7 minutes and not even greeted, or acknowledged. After 10 minutes of sitting there (it was lunch and only 4 other tables seated), my family and I walked out. The man there didn’t even say a word as we walked out.

The hubs and I were very pleased to find this restaurant. We had the Tom Yum soup and Mixed Vegetable dish with brown rice. Both were medium spice– enough heat for him but not overwhelming to me. Both dishes had lots of fresh veggies. And we always love when brown rice is an option. Will consider coming back while in town on vaca!

Oh boy, where do I start…
Walk in the door and looks like a bit of a run down pizza place, which is what I hear it was before this place moved in. They obviously didn’t change anything in here.
SERVER: He was a white guy that wasn’t versed with the menu AT ALL! He was quick enough getting us what we needed but he was nothing special to say the least. Word that comes to mind: BLAH.
FOOD: First off the menu is horrendous. No pictures or item descriptions whatsoever (reference pic). For example: One of the lunch special is «Garlic». WTF is that? I feel like I was playing Russian Roulette with my dinner. Soda only served in a can. Ordered the fried dumplings to start. They were Okay. Sauce had a heavy molasses taste. They were clearly just dropped into a vat fryer. Didn’t produce the best texture. Really hard/​crunchy.
I ordered «Spicy Noodle» as spicy as they would make it for me. It was too sweet, not very savory and not very spicy. No depth of flavor. All in all, fell flat. Because I was not satisfied with my «Spicy Noodle» I ordered a coconut based soup that I saw on Unilocal and looked decent. Side note: asked server which of the soups is the creamy yellow one. He said none. I proceeded to pull out my phone and showed him the photo which is clearly yellow and creamy. He proceeded to come to and tell me which soup it was. Anyhow, it was pretty good. Sour, sweet, creamy, mushroom, chicken, cilantro. My man ordered the yellow curry. Again it was just OK. Too sweet and VERY coconut flavored. We ordered it «as spicy as you can make it». And AGAIN, was not very spicy at all. Clearly all they are doing is adding chili flakes to a base sauce. Probably why everything lacked depth of flavor. Food came out pretty fast which is good and a bad thing. I think a lot of their food is pre-​made.
CHECK OUT: asked for boxes and the one we got was caked in an unidentifiable crust, on the INSIDE! GROSS! No apologies from the server about this or anything really. We had a Discover Card to pay with. They only take Visa and Master. Let’s just say we were glad to be leaving.
SUMMARY: Eat at own risk. Do not expect much in all areas of what makes up a good restaurant.
Gave two stars because one stars are reserved for the worst of the worst.
WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.
WILL NOT BE RETURNING.

Authentic and excellent flavors. Service is fast and friendly. We had the Thi Lovers and Kung Pao. We will absolutely come back for more!

The worst restaurant I’ve ever eaten at. Customer service was terrible. I found a long hair strand in my chicken curry and when I addressed it the owner, he was not at all apologetic and he also tried to say it may be my hair. My friend asked for hot sauce and he rolled his eyes at her because he didn’t have it. I will NEVER eat here again.

Horrible service. Came here Sunday afternoon for labor day weekend. Found hair in the food and when we told the server, there were no apologies, actually attitude. Food is great. Although they should have hot sauce atleast. What restaurant does not carry hot sauce. Again when asked, the guy didn’t even try to accomodate.

I typically don’t write reviews unless it’s amazing or terrible. I just don’t have the time. This place however, I’ll make time for. I always try something different (try to at least) and everything has been great. Especially the curry. The heat (1 – 5) isn’t that spicy so anything below a 3, you’re selling yourself short. Prices are cheap, food is awesome. Enjoy!

First things first! I love peanut sauce, their Noodle & peanut sauce chicken is BOMB! Hands down the BEST I’ve ever had anywhere. All their Curry is great and without a doubt every morsel of food prepared here is fresh & flavorful. Husband & wife family ran restaurant that will not disappoint in flavor and freshness!

Excellent authentic Thai food! I eat lots of Thai food and this is right up there at the top of my list. Our party of four all had different dishes and we all enjoyed each item. Drunken noodles is my favorite… medium spicy!
Housed in a former pizza joint so the ambiance is a little lacking. There is sometimes a little wait for your food but it is made to order and comes out hot. I appreciate that each plate comes out when ready instead of sitting under heat lamps waiting for the other dishes. These small things won’t keep me from eating here every time I am in Havasu. Highly recommended.

We had lunch here today and I have to say the quality of the food was very good. Being from NYC I frequently eat Thai food so I thought we would give this place a try while in town visiting family.
The food was not perfect though, however it was just some minor things. The drunken noodles (spicy noodles on the menu) were very tasty, but a bit oily. The curry dishes were also very flavorful, but just a tad on the sweet side. The Thai tea was also good, but is also a bit on the sweet side.
The service needs a little work. We sat ourselves as there was no one to greet us and we waited for at least five minutes before finding the server. But after that the service was pretty good and we didn’t wait long to get our food. We will definitely be going back.

This is my second time here in a week and a half. Last week I ordered the Spicy Basil lunch special, medium hot, with tofu and a salad — and not only was it delicious, it was spicy hot! The new location ( Unilocal shows the old location address) near In n Out leaves a little to be desired in ambiance but the food makes up for it. Last week, my friend had the pad Thai and said it was very yummy. Today I’m having the Ginger lunch special with tofu — I’ll update this review to let you know how it is. Don’t let the exterior or the sparse interior put you off from having some great Thai food.
Edited to add: the Ginger lunch special with tofu was exceptionally tasty with lots of big slivers of fresh ginger. My friend’s Shrimp Fried Rice had a number of large grilled shrimp and he said it was delicious, too. I’ll definitely be back here again before heading out of the desert for the summer. Then I’ll be back next winter :)

This place… Oh my gosh! So good!!! If you like your food spicy make sure you order it «Thai hot»! Everything on their menu is amazing! Try their Thai tea!

The new location was very nice. It seems like it is a converted bar so there are lots of long tables and the area feels very spacious.
I had the pad see ew with beef and a thai iced tea and was satisfied with my meal. My mom had the pad thai and there did seem to be a lot of sauce and the flavor was a little different from what I’ve usually tasted in pad thai, a little more fishy.
Overall, the service was quick and nice and it was a cute place. We will be eating at Tha Nakarin again and trying a few more items on their menu.
