Where the Locals Eat Rating
Top 100 Restaurant, New Orleans
"Thai cuisine can be traced to the ancient ‘Silk Road.' Thailand was a frequent stop between India and China, and the curries and stir-fried foods in Thai cooking are reminders of the past. But Thai cuisine's true uniqueness results from combining these outside influences with indigenous aromatic herbs and pungent spices, especially Thai chilies. We endeavor to bring you the true cuisine of the Thailand. . . . Each item is prepared individually using fresh ingredients and our own homemade sauces."

"I'd gladly travel over high water to get another taste of Sukho's sticky, gelatinous lotus dumplings. But it's nice to know I don't have to."
– Brett Anderson, The Times-Picayune
"The best Thai food in downtown New Orleans . . . Best to go with a group and eat in the round."
—Gambit Weekly
"The ingredients are fresh and vivid, they're not afraid of using chili peppers and the presentations are as lovely as great Thai food often is."
– Tom Fitzmorris, New Orleans City Business
"The kaffir curry was just as much a joyride as the Pad Thai. The sweet curry, tart lime and fiery chili dragged you along at a thrilling pace."
– WWLTV "Unknown Food Critic"
