Nari is a contemporary Thai restaurant, infusing heritage recipes with a modern Californian sensibility.
Our name “Nari - นารี - is from the Sanskrit-derived Thai word for “women”. Nari is our chef/owner Pim’s tribute to generations of Thai women who laid the foundation for Thai cuisine, and a personal love letter to the women in her life who taught her to cook and, more importantly, to eat.
