good thai restaurant inwhangarei, authentic dishes , friendly service

this is a must visit everytime i visitwhangarei- the food is always delicious, fresh and top quality!  the service is top notch and this restaurant is one of the best thai restaurants and i have tried many!

we eat regularly at suk jai. we have visited thailand many times and just love the taste of thai cuisine.whangareiis so lucky to have a restaurant with such high quality thai food and excellent service. it is not surprising that they were presented with an award from the prime minister of thailand earlier this year. well done charn and your team. our favourites are; tom yum prawn soup, mussamun beef curry, garlic pepper prawns and vegetables, prawn cakes, oyster sauce beef and vegetables, som tum grilled salmon salad and not forgetting the best chicken satay sticks ever. highly recommend the typhoon cocktail and chang beer this restaurant is a must family even travel from auckland to eat here when they can! suggest you book as this restaurant is often full.

fantastic thai restaurant right in whangarei. we have eaten at them all - three inwhangareiand one in russell and this is the best. the atmosphere is warm and welcoming and the restaurant is spotlessly clean. the food is amazing - fresh and hot and the staff faultless. we are regulars there and the staff give us a warm welcome and offer our bottle of wine that we always have upon arrival. they even remember our favourite dishes which is fantastic.
highly recommended for a night out. even when the restaurant is full with large groups as a couple you don't feel out of place. it is worth a visit. you won't be sorry.

suk jai is the best thai food i have had inwhangareior anywhere else for that matter! lovely fresh tasting ingredients. flavours refined. very friendly and efficient service. can't recommend highly enough.

i went here with my partner after getting a deal voucher. it was an awesome experience! this is definitely the best thai inwhangareiin my opinion (and we have tried the others numerous times)....
we had the gari puffs as an entree which had a great filling. we then had mains of duck and cashew nuts and beef panaeng...both of which were delux (some of the best duck i have had in a long time)!! note that we ordered medium to hot for the curry but will definitely order hot in future as it was pretty mild...great flavour though!
leaving leftovers for lunch the next day we opted to share a dessert to finish things off and ordered the banana and sticky rice. we love the mango and sticky rice when we are in thailand and this did not dissapoint! for those of you who havent tried this it is a must....the coconut cream, rice and banana combo is the business and it's served with icecream to tops it off.
