All the food in Thai Tara is Thai original. The spices and flavoring are very authentic and most come directly from family recipes of the owner. The mission of the restaurant is to share authentic Thai cuisine with the people of Austin. All of the food is very fresh and the kitchen is freshly restocked several times per week. Thai Tara offers a very healthy selection of food. For the health conscious, the lemongrass and tofu dishes are particularly healthy. Larb tofu is a somewhat unusual but very tasty offering. We think that we offer the freshest, most authentic, and flavorful Thai food around. See what the Austin Statesman has to say: Austin Statesman Review
