Sukhothai

Nissa Usmani

I visited sukothai in Leeds and I have to say this is my new favourite place. Firstly the decor when you walk in is warm and inviting and very traditional, the staff are authentic and friendly. Service was brilliant and food was brought to the table in a timely manner, now to the food....amazing!! The presentation, the flavours and smells are just fantastic. They are good sized portions and very filling, I honestly wasn't expecting to love this place as much as I do and I will most definitely be back. Only thing to be careful about is the parking outside cos we got a ticket but that's nothing to do with the restaurant, can't fault this place at all, well done sukothai, you made this an extremely pleasant experience and have a customer for life now

L & G - Eats

We visited here for a date night as we both love Thai food. Our table was booked for 8PM on a Friday night, we walked into the waiting area/bar where there were several other parties waiting for a table. Our table wasn't ready when we got there so we were offered a seat at the bar where we ordered a bottle of wine. This was ok for us, because there were two seats at the bar, but all other seats were taken up by people waiting already. Some parties that arrived after us had to stand up and wait, which made the entrance feel crowded and unorganised. We ended up getting to our table at 8:25pm, not a big deal for us, but it may have been for people with plans after the meal. The menu offers a very large choice, there was something for everyone, and plenty of vegetarian options too. When we got seated at our table we were asked if we would like some prawn crackers for the table, which we agreed to. We didn't find out there was a charge for these until the received the bill, it would have been a nice gesture to have these on the house for being seated to our table late. They were also £3.75, which for the size of the portion, we felt was quite steep. For starters, we ordered the Sukhothai dumplings which came with a sweet soy sauce. The sauce was lovely, but the dumplings didn't have too much flavour. We also ordered the Phed Mango (duck breast with mango sauce) which, in our opinion, was overcooked as it was more grey in colour than the pink you expect when ordering duck breast. We did like that the waiters completely cleared and wiped the table down after we had finished our starters, the service was very good we must say, staff were prompt and very polite, always ensuring you were catered for. For the mains we had the Chicken Pad Thai and the Sweet and Sour Chicken with sticky rice. The portion sizes were very generous and were tasty. All in all, the experience and the food was good but a few minor details have prevented us giving this restaurant a perfect 5 star rating, however, we would definitely recommend and return again ourselves.

The food is so good!! Tastes exactly like food in Thailand (I’m Thai so I would know haha!) but yeah overall the service was amazing and the staff are so kind and welcoming.
