History
SukhoThai began with our Marigny location in 2003. We thank the New Orleans community for supporting us over the years, and we are excited to bring to you our new Uptown location. We specialize in the traditional cuisine of Thailand. We strive to bring you the unique flavors that we love so much from the Kingdom of Siam, and we hope you'll let us know what you enjoy, as well as we can improve your experience. Thank you. Soo-ko-tai Meaning 'Dawn of Happiness,' is a word that stirs the imagination of the Thai people. Another meaning could be 'Dawn of the Kingdom of Thailand,' as Sukhothai was the first free Thai city, founded in 1238 A.D., after two Thai chieftans liberated the city from Khmer rule. Sukhothai thus became the seat of the first Siamese Kingdom, and the center point of an era of material prosperity, artistic greatness, and cultural development known today at the 'Golden Age' of Thai history.
