Miami Restaurant Review — Suvi Thai & Sushi


Suvi Thai & Sushi; Miami Springs

Ursula and I both adore good Thai food. The problem is that “good” is sometimes hard to find. But if you’re ever staying near Miami International Airport, I have just the place for you. It’s so good we ate there two days in a row, the second time with daughter Tracy after our visit to Coral Castle. Behold Suvi Thai & Sushi:

  • 5683 NW 36th Street
  • Miami Springs, FL 33166
  • (305) 887-2212

The food here is simply scrumptious, with a menu that is extensive enough to please pretty much anyone. Even the salads are great, with an intensely flavored ginger-based dressing:

Having lived in Japan for several years in my youth, I’m a bit of a tempura snob. Suvi Thai’s definitely passed muster. The batter was delicate and crunchy, not oily, and certainly did not overpower either the vegetables nor the shrimp:

For my main I went with the Bangkok Surprise, a delightful combination of chicken and shrimp topped with a classic Thai peanut sauce.

Add the house fried rice to your combined order and you’ll get a nice serving of rice that’s not over salty from too much soy sauce. It worked out well for all of us.

Ursula goes crazy for a good Thai curry, and her Gang Gai (Red chicken curry) did not disappoint. She let me try it, and it ws delicious:

Tracy is a Pad Thai kind of girl, and hers was one of the better ones either of us have tried:

I highly recommend Suvi Thai & Sushi, as it’s affordable, the food is well prepared and nicely presented, and the staff are simply wonderful. I’ll just leave you with this final image of my selection:

The “surprise” in Suvi’s Bangkok Surprise is that it’s so surprisingly good
