The best meal in the 3 weeks we were there!

DO NOT MISS EATING HERE! The food and service are top notch! My friends and I were completely blown away. My husband is a Chef and I have been in the restaurant business all my life. I really can not express enough how amazing everything we ordered was. The cocktails and even the non alcoholic beverages were so fantastic. We had many things, but the Snapper special was my favorite. The food was all presented beautifully and the flavors simple and complex at the same time!

10/10 Recommend

I'm honestly trying to remember when I've ever had better Thai food, and I can't think of one time. The food isn't just fresh and delicious, the dishes are imaginative without being overly fancy; the drinks, too, are distinctive and all excellent. And on top of that, the setting (especially the back patio) and the incredibly nice staff really makes for a pretty wonderful night. I'd actually love to spend more time in Sayulita, and if I manage to do that I feel like Achara is gonna become my go-to place. Highly recommended.

1 of everything PLEASE

We decided to take our extended family for a meal at this lovely restaurant. Our party’s ages ranged from 9 to 60 and everyone LOVED everything we tried (we ordered at least one of almost everything on the menu because all dishes are perfect for sharing). Delicious drinks and great service too! Definitely check it out!

I could eat here every day!

Such delicious Thai food and such a surprise to find here in Sayulita. The flavors are on point and the house cocktail with mezcal, pineapple, and basil is to die for! Great ambience and love the romantic courtyard area in the back.

The service is attentive yet not obtrusive, we will definitely be back!

Excellent food and stellar service!

My wife and I recently ate at Achara, we had the new pumpkin fried rice and the Pad Thai - the food was excellent and the portions were really generous. Definitely good value!

Achara has a great atmosphere, beautiful decor, gorgeous outdoor "garden" table and the service couldn't have been better. You can sit and people watch in the front of the restaurant or dine in the back garden and forget that you are just meters away from one of Sayulita's main streets.

We will definitely go back and strongly recommend Achara to others!

Transport yourself to Thailand

I had a lovely solo dinner experience here - just me & a book! I ordered the vegetable green curry with shrimp accompanied by (two) watermelon and mint margs - yum! Architecturally speaking, the restaurant is beautiful and I love the direct view of the chefs at work. My food tasted and felt authentic and after striking up a conversation with the manager, Jorge, learnt that the owner went to culinary school in Bangkok.
If you’re feeling completely satiated from town’s delicious tacos or Italian food, or simply want to transport yourself to Thailand with bold flavors, Achara has you covered.

Excellent Thai food in Sayulita

The Pad Thai and Chicken Satay with peanut sauce are my favorite dishes. The house made agua frescas are a great choice and the cocktails are delicious. Nice to have seating inside and in the back if you don't want to sit on the street. You can eat in or get food to go, which is a great convenience.

Just what we needed!

We had a Thai restaurant in Sayulita 15 years ago....major hit, but impossible to get the right ingredients at the time. We make our own Thai, but not needed after eating there. Ingredients are super fresh, staff is professional and funny, and watching them cook and prep is amazing. Love this place and their cleanliness is impeccable. One of my 2 favorite restaurants in town! Highly recommendable

Better than Thailand

Hands down best thai food I've had outside of Thailand (maybe even better ;) Everything listed on their new summer menu is AMAZING. The pumpkin friend rice was the group's favorite but my personal favorite was the green curry. The service, food presentation, delicious flavors - all 10/10! The drink specials are different every night - our special was too good to be true (50% off WINE on a WEDNESDAY)!!! I'd love to go on a Saturday and get a pitcher of sangria for 50% off! Next time! Can't recommend enough and can't wait to eat here again!!

Amazing flavors

We came here on the recommendation of a friend and it was FANTASTIC! Amazing food flavors, great setting (back patio!), great portions, and a fun change of pace from so many other Sayulita spots. We eat a lot of Thai food at home and never thought we’d find our FAV Thai spot in Sayulita — try the sangria!
