This is just really good Thai food. The flavors are slightly distinct from standard Thai in my opinion. For example the green papaya salad emphasized garlic rather than citrus*, and the green curry had a very deep, almost smoky chili flavor and tons of thai basil essence. They certainly don't skimp on the spice, as we ordered our main dishes 7 out of 10 on their scale and it was right where it should be. * note that this might explain the review below where the person did not like the papaya salad. read more

One of the best thai food in town. Everything was so delicious. Especially tom yam was my first time and it was so good!! I wanna visit next time again. read more

Sukhothai - Pad thai. Green curry. Tom yam soup - Thai Near Me - Winnipeg, Manitoba

See all

sukhothai was always been my GO-TO as my favorite restaurant in all of Winnipeg. A group of us went on Saturday for early dinner, and the meals were good, server was quite good. However, I ordered Rice rolls with Chicken with Peanut sauce to take with me. There was NO sign of Chicken in my Rice Rolls. There was an incredible amount of cilantro though. It was easy enough to pick out of the Rolls. VERY disappointing indeed. pretty expensive, seeing as I paid the extra amount to have the CHICKEN added and they were so plain. My company wasn't impressed either. Maybe there should be a checklist to confirm the customer gets what they order? Hard for me to confirm as I didn't reheat my rice rolls till the next day. Note to self -- Don't order Rice Rolls as a TAKE OUT item, as you likely will be disappointed. read more

+.5 for service Sukhothai is a Thai restaurant not only in Winnipeg, but also in Toronto and Ottawa. I've been to the restaurant in Toronto and really enjoyed the food there, so you can probably guess I had high hopes dining here recently for dinner. Since my friend and I were quite hungry, we shared a rice roll dish to start. $11, 8 pieces, and it came with a satay peanut sauce that tasted delicious. My main dish was a pad thai with level 2 spiciness (my spice tolerance is very low, and level 3 is considered medium according to the server). I've had the pad thai in Sukhothai in Toronto, so I kinda know what to expect...that is if they are the same branch. Unfortunately I found the pad thai here to fall short of expectations. The tamarind flavour wasn't there and I found whatever sauce used to be too sweet. However the quantity was definitely there, as the pad thai stuffed me up and beyond. Service was very good, and the server kept making sure we were satisfied with our meals. Unfortunately I'm currently giving the edge to Sabai for best Thai restaurant in Winnipeg. read more

Solid place. Lettuce wraps were definitely fresh, shrimp was well done. The larb was spicy and really good! Peppery. Everyone enjoyed all of the curries a lot, as well as a veggie pad puck. Friendly service! We'd go back. read more

My girlfriend and I have been eating Thai food together for years. On the recommendation of a friend, we decided to try Sukhothai. One word: awful. Papaya salad is my favorite Thai dish, and it was not fresh, but soggy as if it had been dressed 3 days ago sitting in a plastic tub of its own filth, stewing for days. It was actually impossible to decipher if it was real papaya. Zero fresh herbs were provided, however they kindly threw in a brown, soggy piece of lime. All this for $10. Frankly, they should've paid me for eating it. The next luxurious dish we dove into was chicken pad Thai. It was completely bland, like a normal pad Thai dish that had been rinsed with water. Once again, zero fresh herbs were provided. As for the chicken, it's hard to write a real review considering there were only 3 pieces the size of a quarter. Sukhothai was down to one dish to redeem itself: the shrimp rice wrap. But surprise, surprise, it missed the mark. read more

Sukhothai - Thai Near Me - Winnipeg, Manitoba

I was on a road trip from Vancouver to halifax and decided to stop by . Was here at this very restaurant decades ago and I remember the food was quite good . Entered the restaurant through the back door , looks renovated , very nice and open and quite a huge space . Sat down ordered basil chicken , somtum , and rice . When asked about the spice level I asked for medium . I am a foodie and a good connoisseur of Thai cuisine . The somtum did not have any Thai flavours it was bland , no heat as I asked for medium and no sweet and sour taste as well . Fresh lime , palm sugar , fish sauce are the main ingredients besides others but will not get into that at the moment . I always rate a Thai restaurant by ordering pad Thai , Tom yum and somtum, the latter being the easiest to make . The basil ch dish was ok but could have definitely used more basil and chillies to make it more Thai than the subtle Chinese style cooking . All in all food was ok but definitely not as authentic as I was expecting . When the bill came the price was very reasonable for what it was so good value for the money . read more

3.5 stars. We were a group of three and ordered the following: Chicken Satay - There were bland. No seasoning to it. They came with a side of peanut sauce. It would have been nice to have peanut sauce on them before grilling. Shrimp Spring Rolls - were okay. Mango Salad - was pretty good. A tad more spicy that expected. Pad Si Ew - was good. Panang Chicken Curry - star of the evening. I'm totally ordering this again if I visit them again. The service was very good. Everything considered it was a good Thai meal. Panang curry was amazing. read more

Wow! Sukhothai impressed the heck out of me! Starting off when you walk in the doors and see an elegant decor, the restaurant is larger than it first appears. A nice touch added was they had chilled water in clear wine bottles for our table (instead of those plastic pitchers). Just a simple touch that added elegance. We had a larger group and so our table was in the back. I think this was my first real Thai food experience (not including Thai dishes ordered from other Asian restaurants). Cocktails were surprisingly cheap at only $5 and made with fresh ingredients like mint and berries. THE menus offer a wide range of selections. All of them with your choice of protein or none. It was also nice that you could select your heat level from 1-10. My tastebuds are weak so I opt for no spice. Others opted for heat levels from 3 up to 7. The dishes came out beautifully presented. I had a crispy noodle dish with soya Ginger sauce, veggies and chicken. Other popular dishes at our table were pad Thai and curry. The food was a-mazazing!! The sauces on their dishes just pulled everything together. Noodles were cooked just right. Veggies were still crisp. Everyone at our table raved about their food. You have to cool off the spice burning your tastebuds with an order of Thai ice cream. Vanilla ice cream with coconut milk, covered in mango sauce and drizzled with peanuts. I wanted to lick my bowl clean! What topped off the night was that we had excellent and attentive service at well. I can't wait to go back! read more

Sukhothai - a plate of noodles and vegetables - Thai Near Me - Winnipeg, Manitoba

Not to brag, but I consider myself to be a fairly decent cook. I also happen to be a huge fan of Thai Food. However when I've attempted to make homemade Thai curries I have to admit to being less than impressed with the results. For that reason, when looking to eat out, more often than not I tend to gravitate towards Thai Cuisine. It's been a number of years now that Sukhothai Restaurant has managed to maintain it's position as one of my three favourite places to go in my home town of Winnipeg when "the craving for spice" strikes. When we go there, we alternate between the different curry dishes offered on the menu and occasionally opt for the Pad Thai. I alway ask for sliced lime and hot chilli oil on the side. My husband always insists that we order their vegetable spring rolls with their delicious peanut sauce to begin our meal and I happily agree with him on that. No disappointments here! Okay, Adrea P. you have convinced me to try the "tom yum soup" on our next visit. One tip: We always ask for the quieter section at the front end of the restaurant. read more

My girlfriend and I have sukhothai saturdays and I pick up pad puck pretty much every weekend. If they ever closed there would be a hollow place in my soul. read more

We took some food home and dropped off food to some very special people for their 50th Anniversary. We all agree the food was outstanding. Super flavourful with decent size portions. Would definitely recommend! read more

2 stars for the food 5 stars for the service I have had much better Thai food for less cost in Winnipeg and other cities. (Lao Thai!!!) I ordered the masaman curry with level 10 spiciness and it came out mild in spice and temperature. The potatoes were kind of mushy and I don't think I finished it. Sampled some other friends dishes and they were just OK. However, the ambience of the restaurant is mellow and service was fantastic. I came here with a large group for a friends birthday and the server was extremely accommodating about splitting up the bill and not rushing us out at close. Probably wouldn't come back on my own, but would definitely go if someone suggested it since the location is super convenient. read more

I'm not sure what some of these reviews are about? Maybe buyers remorse? This is a great restaurant! The food is always fresh, hot and full of flavor. The sangrias are awesome in taste and for a quick buzz ;) The staff are always very friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend this place to anyone. It's never been bad yet. Even on extremely busy nights. :) read more

It had the opportunity to eat at Sukothai again this weekend. It was nice to add a few more dishes to this food review. It seems to me that they have expanded the restaurant since the last time I ate there, but I might be wrong. I don't remember the a large back room and new washrooms from last time I ate in. Regardless, the atmosphere of the place is very much business-lunch. I have ordered: Mango Salad - Spice level 1 Green Papaya Salad - Spice level 1 Pad Si Ew - Spice level 6 Pad Thai - Spice level 6 Green Curry Soup - Spice level 4,7 Mat Saman - Spice level 5 Pad Kaeng Puck - Spice level 5 Tom Yum - spice level 4 Spring Rolls - spice level 4 Red Curry Soup - spice level 4 Pad Kiew Wan - spice level 4 Mee Krob - Spice level 4 It is interesting to notice that my spice tolerance has increased in the last 6 months. My favourite dish was the green curry soup (spicy 7), which was just right for me. My favourite dish from this list was the Mat Saman and the green curry soup. My overall rating of the place remains the same. I liked the food, it was well made and tasty, but it apart from the fried tofu, it doesn't really stand out among Winnipeg's Thai restaurants. read more

I don't understand the draw to this place. Sure, the inside is nice and the staff is friendly, but the food isn't that good. It's not bad, so it gets a 3/5 stars. I don't go here unless I'm taken here by others. read more

one of my favourite places to go for sure. the atmosphere is very calming and the service is great. lots of good food options and the portions are big for a pretty reasonable price. definitely will be continuing to come back ! read more

Me and my wife frequent here quite often. This is the only place where me and her can come too and brings us back to our time in Thailand. The food is very authentic and the staff are absolutely lovely. Food has a way of taking you back to moments and Sukhothai definitely does this for us! Cheers read more

Best Thai restaurant in Winnipeg! This is the hardest working family with the best food ever!

My favorite Thai restaurant in Winnipeg for sure. The service is always good and the food is always amazing. The masaman with steamed tofu and the green curry soup with tofu are my favorite dishes. I like spice but not in excess and a level 1 always works perfectly for me there. And on those hot summer days, a mango smoothy is so refreshing! Be sure to make a reservation though! read more

My wife and I are visiting from Thailand, and we have been trying to find some more authentic Thai cooking since coming to Canada. We are in Winnipeg for a four day visit, and we were pleasantly surprised by our dinner tonight. We were very happy with everything about this restaurant. The food was very tasty " aroy mak mak" service was speedy and friendly and price was very reasonable. We Highly recommend!! read more

I really love the windows at Sukhothai. They're so big and wide. When you're dining in, you get a panoramic view of the Osborne block. That said, whenever I walk past Sukhothai (which is often), I give goofy faces to the customers dining. There's usually Tinder dates, family gatherings & all kinds of shit going on. You can tell some of those gatherings are pretty important. That's also why I practice my silly walks. Every once in awhile, when it's cold & rainy, I'll have some music on my earbuds and I'm mouth out the lyrics to the greatest song of all time, Killing in The Name of by Rage Against The Machine, bruh. So grandma will be chewing on some mango salad, and there I am, 20 feet away behind a large window pane and her 2nd bottle of chardonnay as I shout "Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me!" She is petrified to the sight of me bouncing to a rap-rock beat. "Fuck you, I won't do what you tell me!" Grandma's bowels are churning. Not just from the spicy pad thai, but from the free entertainment provided from outside. So when passing by Sukhothai, I encourage you to make goofy faces and mouth rap-rock lyrics to the people dining inside. They don't have much eye candy. read more

I am not a huge fan of Thai food but my boyfriend is. He introduced me to this place and to their tom yum soup. Hands down, the best soup I've ever had in my entire life. We drive thirty minutes at least twice a month just to pick up this soup and take it home again. It stays hot and is delicious. The perfect blend of spicy and sour. Everything in it is perfectly fresh. Reasonably priced too! We get two large orders of soup (leftovers are great warmed up too), one chicken and one shrimp plus three orders of steamed rice. We never eat more than half (stuffed) but want the extra for the next day. For this we pay $26. We could easily get away with ordering only one large and still both be stuffed for only $13, we just want that second meal. read more

I've tried all the Thai places in the area and this is by far the best. The Mee Krob and Mat Saman are unbelievable. The Pad Thai is on point. My only complaint is just a preference choice in that I like my bamboo julienned over the larger pieces that are served in the Kaeng Phet. read more

Been here a dozen times and I'm excited to go back. The first time I went I ordered pad thai, and the second, third, fourth, and fifth, actually it took me a very long time to try anything else. But once I did I was just as pleased. This is a great place to go on a date for various reasons; it has very dim lighting which makes things very intimate, the service is always quick, and the food...THE FOODD!!! Be careful not to get too brave, for every dish there's a scale of 1-10 spicyness. I got cocky once and tried the 7. Take my advice and stick with the 5, you'll notice the spicy and not get overpowered. read more

Such amazing food. The service is awesome.. I'm confused about the 3.5 rating on Yelp! I've been going here regularly for my Panang curry fix for the past eight years and can't see it changing anytime soon. read more

Absolutely the worst Thai I have ever had and I have had a lot of Thai food. Meat was over cooked, pad Thai was bland and the red curry Thai was boring. Won't be going back. read more

Horrible service. Took forever to get food and was a Tuesday evening. Friendly just sooooooo slowwwww. The salad rolls with chicken were strange as the chicken was extremely salty. The spring rolls were very doughy. The pad Thai tasted like noodles tossed in ketchup. The coconut rice was very good though! The green curry was good, however the vegetables were too hard. read more

Looking for a delicious night out or a lovely Thai dinner? Then Sukhothai is the spot for you! Perfectly located along Osborne within the village the restaurant's ambience is inviting with lovely aesthetics as well as extremely helpful employees that make the overall experience that much more enjoyable. From what I've observed, they follow impeccable sanitation procedures and keep a perfectly tidy area for you to enjoy your delicious food. The decor incorporates a lovely blend of minimalist wood and traditional Thai themes, creating a wonderful ambience. The food is amazing, they do a great job of using beautiful flavouring in their cooking and you can choose the spice level on a scale from 1-10. I don't have a single negative aspect of the menu as I've tried a dish from every section and have never left unhappy. I'd 10/10 recommend their orange curry soup or pad thai, my personal favourites! ;) read more

My sister introduced me to the restaurant years ago, and it's probably still my favourite, but it helps to know your way around the menu. You can pick just how spicy all your food is on a scale of 1-10 and the protein in your entrées. The drinks are fantastic, especially the Thai Iced Tea. My boyfriend and I just went there for our 2nd Anniversary- It was the first restaurant we ever went to together. Our favourite appetizer is their deep fried crab and cream cheese wanton (I can't remember the Thai name) but it's absolutely amazing. The best of the salads I'd have to say is the mango salad. As far as entrées go, I'd stay away from the rices- they're comparatively dull being mostly rice, but pretty much everything else is great-but you will want room for desert- there's only a few, but WOW. The Deep fried home made Thai ice cream, and the banana spring rolls are to die for. read more
