I lived in San Francisco for 20 years and know full well the difference between Vietnamese and Thai cuisine. The first reviewer, maybe ?, visited a different restaurant in Venice. I do like both cuisines. I crave Dara Thai's curries, especially, and have to get my fix several times a month. There is a reason many restaurants in Venice are... more

I feel strongly compelled to respond in an effort to correct a previous food review. This restaurant IS NOT VIETNAMESE. Please see for yourself by comparing their Authentic Thai menu to a menu of a Vietnamese restaurant.

Fresh ingredients, and authentic spices, always create a wonderful dining experience, from the varied menu. My favorites include the coconut shrimp appetizer , and the seafood... more

I have been eating Thai food for just over a year. I am addicted to the Chicken Pad Thai and the Tom Kha soup. I go to Dara Thai several times a month. I love the staff, they are very friendly. Several times when I have felt like trying something different they have been able to gave me wonderful, tasteful... more

I love Dara Thai! The food is delicious and artfully prepared. The service is excellent and the ambiance is one of great hospitality. Further, the prices are very reasonable. I've been in here four times so far and have never had a bad experience. I highly recommend Dara Thai to all! I disagree with the other review posted here by... more
