Tara Thai - Hyattsville, Maryland

What I don’t like is that 18% service charge is automatically added to the bill (we were a party of 3). I did not ask to take it off the bill because 1) I usually pay 20%+ after the pandemic; 2) the food was good; 3) I will not go back to any restaurant automatically charges service fee so why bother arguing. The drunken noodle was the best I had for years. All others are pretty good except that the crispy rice salad is very salty and that the mango sticky rice portion size is small.

I've been coming to Tara Thai for years. So when they switched over to Siam Thai Cuisine I was open to trying the food since I like Thai food. Since I'm vegan, I usually get the Spicy basil fried rice (no oyster sauce) but today I felt adventurous and ordered something new. I had the red curry with veggies and it was so good! Spiciness on point. Flavor on point. Veggies on point. Very good meal and vegan friendly.

This Tara Thai is the absolute worse. My husband and I visited last night for an anniversary dinner. It was the worse mistake ever. We ordered a large fish to share. It was tasteless, overcooked and extremely greasy. The horrible woman who brought us the food refused to take money off. She brought out one bowl of dry rice for a large nasty fish for two to share. The manager never apologized to us nor did her sorry behind come to our table to apologize. PLEASE spend your money elsewhere. They used to be decent, they are straight garbage disguising as food. JUST HORRIBLE

This place is very welcoming! One of the best Basil fried rice I've ever had. Their wings were nicely flavored and amazing! I was pleasantly surprised!!!! The customer service was outstanding.

I ordered pineapple fried rice from this restaurant on Uber eats. There is a roach in my rice!! I initially thought it was a raisin but it is not. It has legs and wings and a body. I am horrified. DO NOT EAT HERE!!!

I also want to add that I reported this to the health department and they did not investigate. I also complained to the restaurant and the delivery app and they did not seem concerned. There’s still roaches in there and in the food.

This is one of best Thai food I ever eaten. I ordered fried rice with chicken, pad cashew, and ginger perfect. All were tasty especially fried rice. The waiters were friendly and the place is clean and quite. I recommend this restaurant if you want to try tasty Thai dishes.

If I could give this place zero stars I would. Do not waste your time nor your money coming here. This restaurant is operating under false advertisement, as it is NOT Tara Thai. I was allowed to place a phone order under the pretense that this restaurant is Tara Thai. I have ordered the same meal at other Tara Thai locations. The food was NOT the same. It lacked spice and flavor. Also, how can one mess up spring rolls? This restaurant managed to do so. The spring rolls weren’t crispy, yet dry and didn’t taste good at all.

Had I been told the truth once I called to place my order, I definitely wouldn’t have ordered anything from here. Much less drive almost an hour to this restaurant. I’m extremely disappointed.

UPDATE: here's a pic of the drunken noodles on a plate showing the chicken and shrimp.

This is my go-to place for Thai, even though it's in Hyattsville and I'm in DC. Parking is a bear early evening and gets worse the later it gets on the weekend. I do believe this place is pick-up only even though you see seating inside.

That being said, the Pad Thai is excellent and sweet. Their drunken noodles has a different name on the menu and has both chicken and shrimp in it. I highly recommend this dish if you like both, and there are so many green chilies in it I needed two glasses of water. The fried vegetable rolls are good, too.

I wish my picture could do the drunken noodles justice. You have to eat it to believe it.
