We recently went Napar Restaurant which is located on Tara Preserve Lane right on the Tara Preserve Golf Course. While looking at the menu, it was difficult to decide what we wanted, they all sounded wonderful. I decided to be adventurous and have the duck and my husband had the Napar Fried Rice with chicken. It was all so delicious!!! Hats off to the chef! Our server was delightful and very attentive. The atmosphere was intimate and relaxing. We highly recommend this restaurant. You won’t be disappointed. We will definitely be going back.

My husband and I had dinner this past weekend. The food was wonderful. I had pad Thai and my husband bad chicken basil. Our server Siri was seriously such a delight. We can’t wait to go back and try the sushi. The atmosphere is so relaxing and the restaurant is decorated beautifully. It is new so I’m hoping everyone will go give them a try.

We stumbled upon Napar while looking for a mew to us Thai or Asian restaurant to eat while daughter was home for break from college. The location is a little unconventional for your typical Thai restaurant since it’s located in the Tara Preserve golf clubhouse. However, the setting was nice and clean. The service and food were both Great and we will return repeatedly. Our server was very attentive and pleasant, but not overly attentive. The chef came out front as we were leaving and was also friendly. All of the food we had was GREAT! This included the Tom Kha soup, the Pad Kee-Mao stir fry noodles and the Black Truffle Duck Risotto, along with a couple bottles of Sake. They had some variety on the menus too, some unique items, to accommodate the Tara golfers and they have a separate golf/lunch menu as well, noted in the pictures. They also had several traditional sushi items, as well as cooked sushi items. You should give the place a try and spread the word!

Lovely atmosphere and setting. The green curry was pleasant and the presentation is spot on. I usually order it wirh Tofu but they did not offer that. I had it with vegetables instead. The Siesta Key Sushi Roll was my favorite. I Give this place a try, if not for the charm alone. They have only been open for 2 months. They are a little set back off the street in a clubhouse on a green so, it is easy to pass by it. They have a patio but we sat inside by the windows and watched Sandhill Cranes pass by. There is a piano in the main hall. It was a rainy Monday and we were the only patrons at 5 p.m. It was nice. I would visit again.

Absolutely fantastic dining experience at Napar Restaurant in The Preserve Golf Club at Tara clubhouse! I can't rave enough about the Roasted Duck entrée with black truffle glaze. The duck was cooked to perfection—juicy, tender, and bursting with flavor. The rich black truffle glaze complemented the dish beautifully, elevating it to a whole new level. The accompanying mushroom risotto was creamy and decadent, providing a delightful contrast to the duck. The portion size was impressive, ensuring that Ileft fully satisfied without feeling overly stuffed. It's rare to find such generous servings while maintaining quality, but Napar has certainly mastered that balance. Overall, I highly recommend Napar Restaurant for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. Five stars all the way!
