SURA Restaurant

As someone who grew up in Bangkok, I can say with certainty that SURA is a phenomenal Thai restaurant. Although they describe themselves as "non-traditional", the dishes are very authentic. The "non-traditional" aspect comes from the ingredients they use to create their dishes, adding their spin to traditional Thai dishes and flavors. We started off with some Quail Egg Wontons, Beef Skewers, and Boneless Duck Laab. Let me tell you, the Duck Laab is one of the best Laab's I've ever had in Washington, D.C., the flavors are perfectly balanced and it tasted like what you would get on the streets of Bangkok - highly recommend. For mains we got the Beef Shank Horapa and the Special Chili Noodles. The Beef Shank Horapa tasted like Kaprao - a classic Thai dish, but with braised beef shanks that just simply melted in your mouth. The flavor was impeccable. I really liked the taste of the Special Chili Noodles, the bacon and chili jam really brings out a unique flavor. Many review says the food h

Fantastic food. We ordered several starters and one main dish. Everything arrived quickly in no particular order - it was all delicious. I’d recommend ordering several items and sharing as the best way to appreciate the menu. The cocktails were ok. Be prepared for the noise level which is very high. The service is very quick.

Some of the best Thai food I've ever had! Super cool place, cocktails were delicious too! Spicy Belly rice was so good, and the Chili Noodles too. Highly recommend coming here, reserving in advance is a good idea. Thanks for an incredible meal!
