Sukho
Sukho is an intimate, stylish and peaceful retreat from the bustle of London, offering friendly, bright service and aesthetically appealing and subtly flavoured food. The kitchen serves well-executed versions of classic Thai fare, including aromatic grilled pork pepped up with betel nut leaves; chilli-laden sirloin salad; and exquisite flower-shaped dumplings filled with sweet minced chicken and peanuts. A dish of excessively chewy fried squid rings was the only letdown. The overall skill of the kitchen and the quality of the ingredients shine in simple dishes like tender, flaky fried pork fillet flavoured with garlic, pepper and coriander. Alphonso mangoes elegantly splayed over savoury sticky rice with coconut milk, and deep-fried banana with vanilla ice-cream, made the perfect end to a meal. The wine list features some good rieslings that match well with the subtle food. Sukho is perhaps reflecting trends in its pricey neighbourhood, but £2.50 seems a rather inflated price for a meagre portion of steamed rice.

We ventured here after reading the TimeOut review, whilst I agree that the service is second to none, th whole experience didn't live up to expectations. Completely overpriced and very tiny portions, we left still feeling very hungry... if you're going to pay these prices you should definately go to Blue Elephant at Fulham Broadway instead!!!

We couldn't agree with your review of this restaurant. Sultry service, miniscule portions and a lack of flavour made this a very much over-rated experience.
One curry was so spicy, it killed off any enjoyment for the rest of the meal - and not the slightest apology or regret was proffered from 'couldn't-care-less' management.
Portion sizes were supplemented (ie. drowned) with too much vegetable and sauce to mask inadequate quantities.
It’s very pricey for what's on offer. We would not consider it worth the journey - even if you live in Fulham.
