Suksan

Love the Pad Thai! I've been to many thai restaurants in London as I am really a Thai cuisine lover, I can surely say that Suksan has the best pad thai in London!

The restaurant is not really suitable for big group meals as they don't have long tables. Would recommend to go with only few friends or for a date. 

The ambiance is dim and quite. The waiters are really friendly.

If you haven't heard of Park Walk before then you need to take note, and write it down. A lovely little street in Chelsea just off the King's Road which is set to house the site in which Gordon Ramsay will be opening his new restaurant sometime later in the year (hopefully). I think it's fantastic news because there are some great restaurants on this street, and Suksan is one of those. It's just there isn't quite that 'destination' restaurant here yet. Suksan on the other hand is a hidden little gem that almost everyone i know, has never heard of it.

Suksan is not a chain, but does have two sister restaurants, one called Sukho in Fulham, and another named Suk Saran in Wimbledon - whether they have any resemblance in similar cooking, i have no clue. But the menus definitely don't suggest so. We arrived a little dishevelled from another of my extremely long walks around south-west London debating on where to eat - i really do get carried away and can walk for miles to find the right place. From the moment we walked through the doors of this charming little restaurant the staff were incredibly friendly, and once we sat down, knew we were in very capable hands.

An easy choice off of our ridiculously low priced set menu of two courses for (if my memory serves well) £13.95. It's a real steal. Three good sized skewers of grilled, moist chicken which was very well seasoned and served with a light, but very complex coconut and peanut satay sauce - i was almost tempted to drink the stuff. Everything about it was light and fresh - how Thai food should be.

A mini taste of their home made dumplings came as a selection of three different types, prawn and chicken, Thai chive and flower dumpling with peanuts. It was all very well executed and the texture was perfect, but to be really amazing they all needed much more flavour - a little bit more oomph would have been more than welcome to these pretty little dumplings.

A quick move on to the first of our mains was a beautiful gang kari gae. A dish of succulent tender lamb cooked with potatoes, and shallots all simmering away in a beautiful coconut based yellow curry sauce with a multitude of spices. If not done right, this dish can actually be quite a heavy but here it felt effervescent and so light and fresh you could easily put away far more of it than you'd need to. The rice was lovely and fluffy as well - a dish which was hard to fault.

I've ordered Tom Yum Kung Soup, Pad Thai Kung (Prawns Thai Fried noodle) and Lychee mocktail This is my first time to Suksan, which is recommended by a friend, although is not a area that I always go, but the taste of the food is really Authentic, the portions are good for share. The Tom Yum soup s full of ingredients like mushrooms and prawns, very fresh. The Pad Thai just like the way you see it in Thailand, I love the food are very hot from the wok. The restaurant is quite big, so big groups are welcome, the table service are very good too. The atmosphere are so relaxing. Would love to visit again.

We were wandering in the beautiful streets of Chelsea this weekend, and spotted this lovely place. First of all, it looks really authentic. Me and my partner did not expect the food to be that great. The service is excellent, the food is outstanding, the place itself is very cute. Hands down the best Thai for me in London. I tried many different places nothing stood as close as this lovely hidden gem in the streets of Chelsea. Yes Yes and Yes We will be back we promise ! P.S. I highly recommend to try a Thai award-winning wine, what a surprise !

Beautiful Thai restaurant with beautiful dishes. Impeccable service. Chicken wrapped in banana leaves starter tasted amazing... it all did! Everyone in group of four were very happy we dined there. Prices as to be expected with the area.

Great pad Thai, Tom Yom and Som Tom!

The food was so great Full of flavour and the service was nice too. The king prawns in red curry sauce was so delicious highly recommend. However, the price was high but it paid off.
