Master Critic Review

Sukh 8.8
Fort Greene
Sukh is a traincar-inspired Fort Greene Thai restaurant where Northern and central Thai dishes get the full Brooklyn-restaurant treatment—thoughtful plating, cocktails, and a menu built for both a la carte and prix-fixe nights. Dishes like Khao Soi, Hor Mok, and crab fried rice lean bold and spicy rather than toned-down, making it a splashy option steps from Barclays and BAM.
Must-Try Dishes: Khao Soi curry noodles with braised chicken, Hor Mok steamed fish custard with crab, Khao Pad Pu jumbo lump crab fried rice

Weekend wait: 30–60 minutes without a reservation, longer on event nights.
Weekday lunch: Typically no wait if lunch service is active; check hours.

Vegetarian options: Strong set of options—curries, noodle dishes, and apps can be tailored vegetarian.
Vegan options: Limited but workable—ask for modifications on curries and stir-fries.
Gluten-free options: Some naturally gluten-light dishes exist, but cross-contact is likely; alert staff.
Best For
Better for: High-energy Thai near Barclays/BAM with region-specific dishes and strong cocktails.
Skip if: You want mild flavors, quiet conversation, or budget-focused casual Thai.
