If you are looking for good thai food, this will not dissapoint. The fried calamari is fantastic, we all loved the pad eggplant- everything was flavorful and the perfect heat (hot, but not stupid hot.) We read other reviews complaining about the decor - well for Hawaii standards of "hole in the wall" decor, this would be at the top... More

I'll start by saying that I'm not a real big thai food fan.....my wife is. Coming to the sukhothai is something we do everytime we come to kauai. The two little ladies who serve you have a sort of grandmother kind of feel about them. Its located in a strip mall in kapaa and the decor is pretty bad.. .... More

This is a little restaurant, run by 2 very personable women, in a strip mall shopping center. We went for dinner, and had the spring rolls(excellent plum sauce), pad thai, and cashew chicken. Reasonable prices. More

I was immediately put off by all the pictures of the food on the outside of the restaurant. This is usually the sign of cafeteria quality food. We ordered several items and most of the food was quite good. We really enjoyed the panang curry and lemon chicken. The cashew chicken and pepper steak were just okay. The restaurant was... More

We went to dinner and ordered summer rolls, red thai chicken curry, and pork with thai basil. The sauces on the dishes had good flavors -- only complaint was that there was more bamboo shoots then any meat in the dishes. The service was good and very friendly. The best deal was the $3 home-made mai tai special. More

We stopped by on Christmas day, since it was one of the few places open at lunch. Ordered yellow curry and pineapple rice, both with tofu and vegetables. The curry was great, but the side of rice was an additional charge. Pineapple rice was unexpectedly spicy, but still very tasty. Compared to some other places on Kauai, this was a... More

We stopped here on our way back from the Northshore for a quick dinner. The restaurant is located in a strip mall, so don't expect to much in the way of great restaurant atmosphere. It's basic and functional, but the food (we had basil chicken and green curry) was very tasty, and very reasonable priced. More
