Nara Deva

Welcome to go gin chow restaurant reviews by the food ninja. Today I would love to give you my take on a great Thai restaurant in Orlando close to Mall at Millenia.  It is called Nara Deva here they keep it authentic and delicious.  Wow. I was truly impressed by the food quality and service.  The decor was clean and traditional. We were welcomed with a smile that to me is great service. Now the food in words it was so good it was like home cooking. I must of gained 10 lbs before I left there and the prices were up there so if your willing  to drop some cash for a great smile, great food and good service this is your place. so take it from the food ninja please enjoy!

Shadow here.  Excellent place for Thai.  Prices are expensive, but so is everything else in this area, it is by the Millenia Mall after all.  The quality and selection of food are definitely worth it.  Menu is huge and has pictures of the food which is great.  The menu also lists the dishes in Thai as well as English, which is a good sign.   The shrimp rolls were very good and were wrapped with ground pork as well as wonton pastry, a nice touch.  The crab rolls (Hoi Jor) were sliced much thinner than I am used to for this dish, but tasted great.  Mixed Seafood Papaya Salad was superb, very tasty and garnished with paper thin slices of grapefruit, but a word of caution, the scallops are raw.  The Northern Style Pork Chops and Spicy Tomato Dip was definitely of interest as it not typically found on most Thai restaurant menus.  Pork was cooked well, dipping sauce was a tad too sweet.  Soft Shell Crab with Yellow Curry was my least favorite, but still tasted great and was spicy and we requested it.  Sticky rice is served in traditional basket woven containers.  Service was very efficient and considering that there were only two servers, they did a great job, however they could be a little friendlier.  Bathrooms are super clean.  Decor is nice, wilderness lodge-like rustic wooden tables and chairs with interior decorated with traditional Thai wood carvings and statues. Definitely one of the best Thai Restaurants around.  Happy Eating!
