Boulder Restaurant Review - Suki Thai

I went to Suki Thai for the first time yesterday for lunch. It was great!

Suki Thai is conveniently located just off of Highway 36 at Baseline. The restaurant was very clean. This is a fast Thai restaurant where you order from the counter. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. I decided to order their new Thai Tacos with pork cooked in a red sauce. They were excellent. They were served on a soft corn tortilla with veggies, Mexican cheese, and crema flavored with coconut. They have a condiment bar where you can put cilantro, green onions, hot sauce and more on your food to taste.

Suki Thai has a punch card where you get $5 off after nine punches. I got one since I plan to go back frequently. I'm looking forward to trying the Phad Thai and the noodle bowls on future visits.

I'd highly recommend Suki Thai! It's a great restaurant where you can eat lunch quickly if you need to get back to work like I do.

Thank you Suki Thai for the great food and friendly staff!

Visit the Suki Thai Web site to see their menu and learn more about them.
