Have been here, both upstairs and downstairs, a few times, and I especially love the ‘thai bar’ downstairs – I brought a couple of friends from out of town and they loved it, the feeling of heading into a secret cellar! The yellow curry (I have forgotten it’s proper name!) is an absolute fave.

I’ve eaten as Suchitra’s at least half a dozen times. Always downstairs, and nearly always on a Saturday lunchtime. The staff are always cheerful and the food excellent. I usually go for one of the set menus – which are called things like the Traveller’s Dinner, and the Businessman’s Dinner, and supplement them with something from the a la carte menu – not that you need to, I’m just a big eater.
It’s very good value. Never had wine there (do people have wine with Thai?), but the Singha beer is good.
If you have a party of 5-8, suggest you try to book on of the booths/rooms. These make for an excellent intimate dining experience.

I much prefer to eat lunch downstairs in the cellar bar, the food is better value and the bar staff are friendly- beef thai chilli and basil is a great dish, it is tasty with a good amount of fresh chilli!
The restaurant menu (upstairs restaurant)is more pricy and the service not always with a smile. I think that Preedee Thai is nearly as good for quality of food and a more friendly service but I would still highly recommend the Thai and Shanghai for the overall Thai experience.
