Thara Penang

I’ve visited here several times and really love their authentic Thai dishes. The flavours are consistently delicious, and it’s no surprise they’ve been Michelin-recommended for four years. They even serve complimentary crispy prawn crackers, which is a nice touch. Highly recommended!

Superb place for Thai food. Super nice and tasty 😍. Great environment and friendly staff. Taste better than it looks. Price on the higher side but worth the money. Must-go

Thara authentic is a Thai restaurant located in the heart of Georgetown at Lorong Prangin. Thara Penang, a Thai restaurant located in Lorong Prangin in the heart of Georgetown, opened its doors in July 2022 and has quickly become a favourite among Thai food enthusiasts. Whether you are a meat lover, seafood fan or enjoy greens, the menu offers something for everyone. Thai food lovers would certainly love this restaurant. From its Facebook Page, it seems like its associated with ThongLor Thai which was previously located at Icon City, Bukit Mertajam. The new venture- Thara, offers a wide range of Thai delights that are not new to Malaysians from the commonly seen Thai Salad to Tom Yum, Kheng Som or various Thai stir fries. The prices are on the higher side considering the small serving portion but they do offer quality in return. Comfortable space with authentic, delicious Thai food if you don't mind to pay a little more. The newly opened Thara can be found at Lorong Prangin, a few doors away from Ichi Tong. Thara Thai restaurant, With over 15 years of culinary experience under the chef belt, the Thai chef excels in authentic cooking from his home country, with the freshest seafood being his strong suit. In the lofty room decorated in soothing shades of green, try his array of tom yum soup variations with different seafood. The miang kam is a must – fresh betel leaves and sweet miang kam sauce make it a great appetiser. To start, Miang kham is a fun and flavourful way to whet the appetite. Fresh betel leaves are served as wraps for various condiments – toasted coconut flakes, peanuts, lime, shallots, cabai burung (bird’s eye chillies), hea bee (dried shrimp) and ginger. A thick, syrupy sauce is provided on the side to bind the flavours together. Enjoying these little parcels makes for the perfect appetiser as you wait for the rest of the meal. There is also har mok talay ma phao – a Thai-style otak-otak served in a young coconut . This dish included fresh seafood (prawns, fish and squid) infused with lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, galangal and other aromatic herbs and spices. One wouldn't miss the Thai classic, green curry chicken with Thai apple eggplants (gaeng keow wan kai). Prepared with chicken thigh, the meat was tender and the curry had a lovely consistency

Authentic Thai Restaurant with great food! We love the Assok Prawn, Chicken with cashews, sticky mango rice, red ruby dessert, Thai milk tea! Pandan chicken was alright. green tea was ok. Mango salad is authentic Thai! Everything was good!

Food was top notch and authentic Thai food experience. Service could be better as no staff was around to even add on orders. Definitely a worthy Michelin guide restaurant. The pork knuckles 💯 to perfection. Cozy ambiance.

Ingredients are fresh in general. Special shoutout to Som Tam. Other dishes are either fine or too salty. Will not recommend fried squid, too salty, bitter and fishy. Ended the meal with the fried squid left untouched.

Very authentic Thai restaurant. Food is great with reasonable price. They have variety of Thai crusines to match your taste buds.

Superb! I had dinner at Asok35 with my MIL last week, so satisfy with the food. This week I brought my parents to Thara. Food is super delicious too! I personally love their tomyum and lime pork loin. I understand why the restaurant has been continuously receiving Michelin now 👍 definitely worth to visit
