Dahla - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Trying New Orleans Thai food for the first time and I decided to go with Dahla and it was great!!! The flavor of the pineapple fried rice was so flavorful and tasty with that Indian spices. Definitely recommend this place if you want that southern flavor.

I'm obsessed with the drunken noodles and tom yum soup. Good spice level, I never find good spicy enough but their Thai hot is good

The food was great and the service was just outstanding. Nice atmosphere and a short walk from the Hyatt Regency.

Everything is delicious and fresh! The price point is higher than other lunch spots downtown, but the quality is excellent!

Best Thai food in NOLA. Prompt and friendly service. Highly recommend! Cocktails are superb as well.

I don’t ever write reviews but this place is hands down the best Thai restaurant. The owner and staff are amazing and always so kind to us. Their happy hour is hard to beat with a great selection of cocktails and wines. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. I recommend this place to everyone!

Forcing 20% large party fee on all parties. We were 3 of us. For our $80 tab, they slapped ‘$16 large party fee’ tab so total $96+tax. When asked that 5 or more is large party the manager said “the law does not hold them from charging” the large party fee for all parties. This is called daylight robbery!!! I’d say please be cautious and condemn this greedy act. I was a restaurant owner. This practice is unethical, foul and can be proven illegal. Just that people don’t have time to go after these greedy outlets. Stay away from these greedy arm twisters !

5 stars for the food. 3 stars for not telling us charging 20% for 5 persons. (Nor do I see it on the Menu)

The best Thai restaurant in the U.S. thus far! Outstanding food and service.

Crispy duck was fantastic! Food, drinks, and service was impeccable!

Located in the business district. Calm, safe, chill, and yummy.

Thai is one of my favorite types of food and I love this place. Since moving here I have struggled to find authentic Thai food in the city. So glad I found this place.

Incredible service, food, and a good vibe without being overdone. This place surprised us in all the best ways… every dish was delicious, fresh and portions are generous! Staff was incredibly attentive and kind. Such a gem!!

The food was a little bland here. The name of the restaurant makes you think it’s Indian food & it’s Thai, so that’s confusing as well. Intimate atmosphere.

This is a really good locally owned Thai restaurant just a few blocks outside the French Quarter. I got the Crab Rangoon and the gyoza as appetizers, and they were amazing! For dessert, I loved the Umi cheesecake so much I got a second slice. I also found the chandeliers and the detailed mural made the space feel classy but still casual. The service was also very good. I will definitely be back.

I’ve had their food 50+ times and it never disappoints!!! The food is made quickly, the service is wonderful, and they are family owned. I love supporting them and I hope they stay in their CBD location forever

Greatly disappointed, order my food thai hot and it had no flavor or spice what so ever. The pineapple fried rice was just plain white rice with peas and carrots, no basil, no Thai spices nothing. I felt like I ordered fried rice from a gas station.

We were on vacations and found this place in a Google search. The atmosphere is good, the service was excellent, and the food was delicious 😋! The price is also fair, and compared to other places that were more famous it has a very fair price. We had an soup, two entries, one soda , and a dessert for $60 whereas other more famous places in the city it would be double the $. I would recommend it ☺️

Wow! Spectacular craft cocktails paired with some of the best Thai food I’ve found in the States — I will definitely be back!! From the rich crab rangoons to the pineapple fried rice, every dish my group tried was so fresh and full of flavor we wanted to try more even tho we were stuffed. Every cocktail was a treat too, especially the Chiang Mai Nights with its rich fruit blended with whiskey. And if you’re a fan of coconut, you can’t miss the Thaibuprofen!! And to top it off, the staff are all awesome- so friendly and helpful

This is some legitimately fantastic Thai food with the added bonus of some top-class cocktails. Spice and flavor were perfect, as is the ambiance. Will definitely return!

I was already a fan of this spot, but after my experience tonight, they have earned a customer for life! The place is well-decorated, the food is consistently delicious and affordable, but the service is where they really impressed me this visit. I ordered a dish for take out and paid extra for glass noodles, which wasn’t an issue. When I got home from picking up my order, I realized there was an error and I didn’t receive the upcharged noodles. Just as I was about to call the restaurant, they called me first!! They were super apologetic and made it right. I have never had that level of customer service with a takeout order before. I frequent this restaurant for lunch and dinner, but I will always come back now due to that simple act of service. Thank you!

Ok so this place has been on my radar for a while … last night, we had birthday dinner reservations on the OTHER side of St Charles which we couldn’t get to because of parade timing. We took a chance that we might get in at Dahla if we were lucky? Not only did we get an immediate table during Mardi Gras weekend, but we got fast, wonderful service, awesome drinks, and surprisingly quick, perfect food. Panang curry was rich with perfect heat. Pad Thai was equally delicious but the TOFU!! Maybe the best I’ve had in New Orleans. Thank you for such a great experience! Can’t wait to go back.

I really liked this thai restaurant. The spring rolls were flavorful. The spicy pineapple margarita was surprisingly delicious. I like spicy but not really in drinks but decided to try it and wow the jalepeno was balanced by the pineapple so it turned out to be my favorite drink while i was in new orleans. I recommend trying it! The service was great, attentive and helpful staff. The food was delicious, would have liked more eggplant in the dish versus leafy veggie but overall the flavor and portions filled me and i will be back on future visits Extensive menu for all palettes.

First time here. It was amazing!! 🤩 Chicken Pad Thai was on point. If ever I'm in the area again, will definitely be back. Thanks so much for a wonderful experience❤️

Nice neighborhood restaurant serving good food. Off the beaten path so there’s always space, and the ingredients are simple and delicious. Great service and our waiter was prepared with some recommendations. Ordered a few appetizers and the shrimp and vegetables. Everything tasted great and it’s an easy place to come for a meal or a few drinks.

We definitely loved this place! Very worth it of the money and experience. We’ve been to Thailand ourselves before and this restaurant is seriously closest to the taste we’ve tried before. Recommend the place 5/5⭐️ Also, they have Chang beer that is hard to find in town! My boyfriend ordered Khao Soi and its hard to find restaurants that serves this (He definitely loved it!) The dessert was amazing and well-plated. I also had a vegetariam friend who ordered Tofu Pad Thai and she said that the Tofu was well seasoned! Will definitely go back and recommend it to people we know in NOLA and Mississippi. Good Job as well for all the staff! Very welcoming and accommodating. ❤️ I just hope that people will find this gem like we did in this big town. 😉❤️

In a city with a well-earned reputation for great food, it's still fun to find one more spot to add to the list. Dahla serves fresh, scrumptious Thai food and killer mardi gras-themed libations in a section of the city that continues to spring to life. Service is stellar and the manager is completely engaging!

Authentique Thai cuisine restaurant. Here is popular for delivery. I missed an opportunity to try dessert. The restaurant’s ambiance was cozy and with dim lights. There are also bar and happy hours.

Ok so boom, the address was a bit misleading cuz it takes you the the complete opposite end of the building. After calling to figure out where it was, the waiter stood outside for us to make sure we found it. The moment we walked in I knew this wasn’t just any ole Thai spot, they are an upscale Thai cuisine establishment, VERY DIFFERENT if you just want a regular Thai dish though they do serve them, it’s in the experience and the plating and everything. We were treated amazingly! The waiter suggested dishes and we got all the traditional thai cuisines to gauge how authentic it was. They passed the test! Everything was wonderful from the crab Rangoon and Spicy Drunken Noodle to the Tom Yum soup and Fried Rice. Two of us are avid google reviewers and we all forgot to get pictures, that’s how good it was. Now, I was VERY underwhelmed with their wine selections. It’s almost as if the wine menu and food menu were created at separate time with noooo thought, rhyme, or reason. And they didn’t have a single red outside the US. We would’ve gotten a bottle with our meal but nothing was good or justified the price. Other than that, our waiter - Dillon I believe his name was, made the experience a very fine dining experience. It’s been a minute since someone sold the dining experience to me and he did an amazing job. I made sure the tip reflected that. Overall, I would come here again, with my own glass of wine. The ambiance was very sexy and the food matched the vibe. They do need to step up the wine menu.

Tried to call multiple times to place a Togo order and was sent to voicemail Everytime well before closing time.

I don’t know if this says more about us or the food, but this was our favorite food in New Orleans. The green curry and the drunken noodles were delicious! The atmosphere and service was nice, too.

Found this gem through a friend. Very friendly staff that’s equally attentive. Great cocktails from the bar. Started with a crab Rangoon app and it was wonderful as were the entrees. Definitely coming back here!

Im so crazy about Thai food, and here has the best thai food I've ever had. Must TRY!!

The food was MEH. LITERALLY. How in the are y'all gonna have "Chiang Mai" on your actual menu, and still can't find a pepper in the place? 0/10. "Spicy drunken noodles": more like bland, sober-vigin noodles.

The Tom kha was fine, it was a bit bland. I later realized adding the chili oil would have done the trick. The drunken noodles were good and chili oil was amazing. The ambience and service was top class.

I am in New Orleans for a conference and ate here twice so far. The food is very good and the service too. Tom who served us was very polite and accommodating.

I ordered the Pad Thai, Stir-fried Vegetables, and the Fried Shrimp Dumplings for delivery. The dumplings were great. Everything else was just ok. It wasn't as flavorful as you'd expect and the shrimp in the Pad Thai was over cooked.

Just got takeout and paid 20 dollars for a curry dish with about 3 dollars worth of food in it. The portions were a joke. Barely any chicken, 1/2 cup of rice and maybe half a pepper all swimming in curry sauce like a soup. There are so many other Thai places in town with better food- this place is a rip off.

Excellent thai food. My favorite in new orleans. I loved their original spot in metairie thai ocha and since moving the taste has remained consistent. Satisfied every time!

As a Thai people who were growing up in Thailand. Dahla has the best Pad-Thai in town.

A very nice find. The papaya salad,pra kow krapow and stir fried basil shrimp were all excellent. The restaurant has a very nice subdued atmosphere with good service.

Good Thai food at a reasonable price. Great location!

Great food but service needs improvement - the waiter wouldn't let us have enough time to decide on what to eat

Wonderful atmosphere, and best Thai food I’ve had (and I’ve visited Thailand twice!)

Best Thai food experience in New Orleans! I’m always a little bit skeptical of Thai food in any city, as they usually lay on the sweet. However, Dahla encompasses the perfect vertices of great food in a sexy ambiance, with an ambitious cocktail program to compliment the food. We had the drunken noodles, larb, papaya salad, and kra pow. My only complaint is when I asked for spicy, they probably thought I was weak. Next time I’ll ask for Thai Spicy 😝

most clean and fancy looking restaurant ive ever seen, food was amazing, servers were nice and price was very reasonable

Great place to have a quiet dinner with excellent Thai food. The staff is super friendly; they suggested drinks and the most popular dishes. This is high cuisine! I chose Green Curry Chicken which was delicious. The cocktail I chose was Chian Mao Nights. Just perfect! We’ll definitely eat here again back before we go back to our Miami.

Excellent food, drinks and service. Highly recommended!

Food is average. The restaurant is bougie and priced as such, but it will take care of that craving if you need a break from soul food. The veggies in the soup and main course were a little Al dente, but I guess I’d rather that than soggy. The wonton soup was tasty. Gyoza comes with 5 piece instead of an even number which is always a little upsetting, but they tasted fine. Spicy drunken noodles is good. Noodles have good texture, not really spicy, but overall good enough. Wish the portion was a little bigger. Service was good, food is ok, I’d come back out of convenience.

Easily one of the best restaurants in New Orleans. The food was truly spectacular - the passion for creating wonderful meals was evident with every bite. Combine that with the impeccable service and ambiance of the restaurant and the end result is a truly one of a kind dining experience in New Orleans. The owner has crafted an incredible restaurant and I urge anyone visiting the city to make a stop here!

Do yourself a favor and visit this restaurant in New Orleans.The food is absolutely amazing – everything we tasted melted in other mouths! Absolutely the best meal we had while in Nola.

The food was surprisingly good. My date has the rice noodles pad Thai and they were awesome! My pineapple fried rice was really good, but her dish was so much better.

Incredible food, service is always top notch. 100/10. Cocktails are fantastic. Crab Rangoon is homemade with real crab. Everything is fresh, flavors are bright and memorable.

Great place for lunch. Food is delicious and service is super quick. Recommended!

The food here was great. I had pineapple fried rice with chicken and it was delicious. Had a couple of beers while my friends had bougie cocktails. Great time was had by all.

Amazing food great service! I love Thai so I figured I would try this place. It did not let me down! The Drunken Noodles 🔥🔥 perfect spice and flavor! Will definitely be back

My family has visited three times, and every time we had a great experience with the amazing dishes. Noodle, rice or soups are all delicious, beautiful and even healthy. My hubby and my son especially love their desserts!

Really nice Thai food. Staff was welcoming and atmosphere nice, but not presumptuous or too laid back. It's probably a good place for a first date. The Tom Kha Gai was excellent with the right amount of heat. We had the khao Soi Noodle Soup, which was also excellent. The Pad Woon Sen that was good, but lacked a little flavor. I ordered it medium, but it had no heat to it. Even without the heat, a stronger overall flavor would have elevated the dish to excellent. Certainly, I will need to try them again and see if they just had an off night with that one dish.

This place is out of this world! They did an amazing job on the decor, lighting is fantastic, & the staff could not have been better. We tried several different entrees & each one was cooked & seasoned to perfection. There’s a good variety of drinks as well & the bartender did a great job of helping me pick the perfect drink. 5 stars only because 6 isn’t an option!

Amazing food. I was skeptical at first because they dont have many reviews but they’re soooo good. Service and food. Location so welcoming. We tried the thai fried rice with shrimp really good and also the delicious thai beef salad. Edamame for appetizer and as drinks we had blood moon cocktail and a thai beer. Sooo good. We’ll definitely be back.

Visiting NOLA for a conference and stopped in here one night for dinner. Servers were friendly, and the food was delicious! We ordered crab rangoon to share (so much more crab than most I've tried, yum!) and the Pad See Ew with chicken, both were excellent.
