Itsara - Nedlands

Modern take on Thai cuisine. We ordered Lovers pillows, Half-moon for the entrees, the Duck Curry and the char grilled chicken stir fry for our mains. The food was superb, with rich flavours and fresh ingredients. Loved the entrees, the four little parcels vanished in no time and the half moon is perfect mix of refined street food with royal presentation. The sauce of the duck curry was delicate and was full of flavour. The stir fry was bang on – perfectly cooked meat with beautiful flavours and fresh produce. We ordered two serves of the Ginger and kaffir lime infused crème brûlée and we loved it!! Its just pure divine. Prices are little higher than your average Thai restaurants but I think its worth. Yes, definitely they (Itsara) will attract more people if they include a serve of rice with their mains, which won’t cost them heaps but will be a good deal for a lot of foodies, who are complaining about the price.

The service was professional and the ambiance was pleasant. They have a lovely out door area which is fantastic for parties and group dinners if the weather is good. The staff are friendly and efficient. Probably the best Thai I've had in Perth! Absolutely loved their duck curry and lover’s pillows!!

Itsara is absolutely Amazing The theme is all Thai, but it's not authentic, it's the Chef's version of Super-Thai. Easily the best Thai in Perth or possibly ANYWHERE-it's that good. We've only "discovered" it recently so only been 3 times. The worst dishes are 4.5+ the best 5.0+ The decor is 5.0 and 5.0+ when you take into account I'm certain it's all "home made" by the owners. The Garden is the place to sit in Summer-ABSOLUTELY WORLD CLASS-like the Restaurant itself. The Chef is a weirdo like all great Chefs!!! HE WONT PERMIT THE WAIT STAFF TO BRING SALT TO YOUR TABLE woooooohooooo go, GO BIG DOG! (I suppose you could sneak some in in your pocket ????????) The wait-staff are 4.5 world class when consider English is not their first language, they too are 5.0+ ITSARA WILL NOT DISAPPOINT

Itsara was a rather unique restaurant offering both indoors and outdoor seating- both of which are air conditioned! The garden and decor was lovely, adding to that Thai feel. The food was a bit pricey as one may expect, however the taste and quality of the food did not disappoint!

I have given this place many chances to redeem themselves. but seriously the food here is just bad and bland, not worth the money. I have dined in many times before and during then the food was good but the last couple of times I came by the customer service was just rude. Last Saturday I dined in with my partner and we waited 20minutes to order as the waiters kept talking behind the counter so my partner had to walk up and ask if we can order. We had the Char grilled Green curry and the Spicy barramundi with candied egg which was our all time favourite. But this time both of the dishes was just horrible, the grilled chicken was so dry and hard-like (definitely over grilled) and the barramundi tasted alright but the candied egg had a slight rotten smell to it. It was so bad that we just quickly paid the bill and left for the movies.  Note: Not coming back until they improve on their customer service and their food.
