" So, I had mixed feelings about my visit. The food was undoubtedly tasty, especially the fried rice and satay, but the service was painfully slow. We waited ages to get our drinks and then had to remind them about our food order. A busy Saturday night might have been the reason for this, but I couldn’t help feeling a bit neglected. The atmosphere was cozy but a bit noisy. I would still recommend it for the food; just be prepared for a long wait if it’s packed. " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm not one to write reviews, but this time I had to. Sookjai is definitely the real deal when it comes to Thai food. The levels of authenticity in their dishes are unbelievable! The chicken satay was truly authentic, and the peanut sauce on the side was delightfully rich. Portions were immense as expected for the pricing. The staff was incredibly welcoming and the atmosphere has a nice local feel to it. If you haven't tried this restaurant yet, you are missing out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came across Sookjai on my trip to Victoria, and it was one of the best finds! Their menu offers an extensive variety of authentic Thai dishes. Every dish we had, from the Pad Thai to the Green Curry, was so full of flavor. The portions were enormous; we even had leftovers! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, perfect for a family dinner. A little on the expensive side, but the quality justifies it. Definitely will return next time I’m in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely dinner here last week! The staff were incredibly kind and helpful. I ordered the Yellow Curry, and it was expertly balanced - not too spicy, and just the right amount of creaminess. Portions were generous; I ended up taking home leftovers which made for a great lunch. The atmosphere is a bit cramped but still cozy. You might need a reservation on weekends, as the place gets packed! Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I am a Thai cuisine fanatic, and Sookjai did not disappoint! The flavors were spot-on, proving their authenticity. The service staff was attentive, bringing our orders in timely fashion. We especially enjoyed the fresh spring rolls that paired perfectly with the sauces provided. Portions were ample for the price we paid and suited our desire for sharing. I can't wait to take friends here soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Sookjai based on recommendations and was thoroughly impressed! Service was attentive and friendly, and each dish echoed the rich flavors of traditional Thai cuisine. I loved the curry they served, as it was beautifully seasoned, not too heavy, and generously portioned. Cozy, bustling atmosphere indicates a popular local hangout. Only downside is that they are often busy, so I'd suggest a reservation for weekends or busy nights. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sookjai is an authentic Thai restaurant that never disappoints. The food is always deliciously prepared. I ordered the Pineapple Fried Rice, and it was packed with fresh veggies and shrimp. The atmosphere has a nice, cozy feel to it, perfect for family dinners or get-togethers with friends. Service has been attentive every time I’ve been. Just remember to make a reservation on weekends!
