Well, it's been a long time since I posted a Yelp review. A lot has changed --I now live in Monterrey, Mexico; and I want to pick up where I left on restaurant reviews.
Moving from Chicago, where every possible cuisine is available, it was hard to get used to less options here in Monterrey where grilling is king. However, Sukhothai is just a treasure in a place where other options are wanted.
Sukhothai is a small but very well put restaurant located in a residential area of San Pedro, Nuevo Leon. San Pedro is really close to the city of Monterrey, so don't get confused here.
The restaurant is very well decorated and the food is just flawless. We ordered the Pad Prik Pork as an entree to share, and it was delicious! I had the Tom Yum Gung (shrimp) which was also delicious. This was as good as Tom Yums I've had in other traditional Thai restaurants in Chicago. It was hot and spicy. I also had the chicken Pad Thai which was cooked to perfection. Absolutely excellent meal! Finally, the mango sticky rice was the perfect dessert for a perfect meal. Oh, and this is a BYOB (bring your own bottle) place which was surprising!
Price was right and service was prompt and courteous. I will definitely come back! read more
