About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
A Taste of Bangkok in the Heart of California.
A vibrant restaurant in Buellton, California, inspired by the owners' time living in Thailand. The menu features a diverse selection of elevated street food dishes.
Step inside and be transported to a lively atmosphere. The colorful decor and friendly staff create a welcoming ambiance.
Start your culinary journey with a selection of small plates, like the crispy lumpia, filled with curried beef, or the light and flavorful por pia tofu spring roll, bursting with fresh vegetables and herbs. For a main course, indulge in the pad thai, a classic dish elevated with perfectly grilled shrimp and a symphony of textures. The deep-fried whole fish with fried garlic sauce is a showstopper, offering a crispy exterior and succulent, flaky fish.
Na Na Thai's commitment to authentic flavors extends to their use of locally sourced ingredients. They work closely with farmers and ranchers to ensure the freshest, highest-quality produce and meats.

    Not your ordinary Thai restaurant, Na Na Thai is a must-stop in the Santa Ynez Valley. Vibrant, spicy, fun and friendly descriptors apply to everything—food, service and vibe. The way you feel after a meal also reflects how meticulous they are about sourcing quality ingredients, many of which come from local growers and purveyors.

    This was special menu with chef from LA who did Chinese food. I was looking forward to the experience as I love Chinese and Thai food so a combo approach was sure to be awesome. But Na Na took it as an opportunity to jack up prices on a limited menu which made me feel taken advantage of.

    Mei Lin is amazing. Best char sui made with Iberian Pork was sticky and fantastically tender. Caramelized crust. The best prawn toast I have ever eaten. She lives up to her reputation!

    We loved the special menu from Chef Mei Lin, especially the salty, crunchy prawn toast and the sneakily spicy fried chicken sandwich. The pork collar skewers on the regular menu were also fantastic. Perfect combination of juicy and charred beef. Great service and cool ambiance.

    Came here for the Pop up with Mei-Lin but have been here multiple times in the past with their regular menu. The staff is always friendly and warm. Some places you feel out of sorts bringing a child but this place accommodated my toddler and made her feel welcome as well. I LOVE that they don’t ask you your spice level and serve the dishes exactly as they are meant to be eaten just like in Thailand. The food is delicious. I have no recommendations because I’ve really enjoyed everything I’ve tried to so far. Whatever you’re in the mood for just order it and know that it will be good. Pricing is on par with other restaurants in the area. The interior is cute and colorful. Recommend to anyone who’s looking for a good Thai restaurant.

    My wife and I travel often from San Luis Obispo just to eat here—it’s that good. The food is consistently delicious, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Two standout dishes we always come back for are the Larb Moo and the Geng Kari Neua—both are incredibly flavorful and beautifully prepared. On top of that, the owner and chef are truly wonderful people who make the experience even more memorable. Highly recommend!

    A cut above your average Thai. Interesting spicing. Cheerful ambiance, attentive owner. Quality ingredients, consequently a fairly pricey lunch.
