SOOD by Chef Ton

From the outside, SOOD by Chef Ton looks like another restaurant in an old colonial bungalow, but the moment you stepped into the restaurant, you will be wowed by the bold red decor that adds so much life into it. We had a chance to enjoy a nice dinner here last night, and I will say the food was amazing, from the starters like the Beef Larb Crispy Taco to the Smoked Grouper Soup and from the various mains we had such as the Crab Curry Linguine which I thought was the best food we had last night to the 5 spice lamb shank and the Panang curry tiger prawns. For dessert, my friend enjoyed her Banana Banana Banana while I felt their Thai Tea Cheesecake was a hit. Parking is vallet, so no worries about parking.

Last evening was my first experience at SOOD and I was not disappointed with the food and services provided. I tried the tasting plates to expose myself a variety of what's available. I heard so much from some friends and finally I made it and enjoyed the whole dining experience. The tasting plates were a bit too much for me, and the next time I will go Ala Carte

The Thai fine dining experience was disappointing. The taste was not balanced, and the combination of flavors just didn’t match well. The presentation was nice, but overall the food lacked harmony and was not satisfying. Especially the beef

Food was kinda overrated. Tomyum soup was so salty - I just wish the chef could taste it themselves, then they'd know. Never thought the Crab Fried Rice would turn out to be the real MVP of the night. Red curry beef was good. But beef tongue and prawn were just meh, pretty average honestly. For the price we paid... not really worth it. Thanks for the complimentary birthday cake, though! But even the mango sticky rice was overly salty — a little salt would've been perfect, but it was just too much. Yaa, that's it. Thanks - but no next round.

Amazing dining experience at SOOD Penang! The food was flavorful, service was attentive, and the restaurant interior was stylish and welcoming. A big thank you to the team for the complimentary surprise birthday cake — such a sweet gesture that made the evening extra special.

While the food doesn't create a wow experience, the timing of dishes serving is definitely a "wow". We waited for 15mins in between dishes that we ordered at the same time. It was somehow haphazardly served. We even had to wait for normal white rice, which should be a standby staple anytime it's ordered. Some dishes are interesting and some are quite the norm. The staff are very courteous and professional though. The interior design and deco is worth a sight if you're not jz there for the food.

Had dinner here to celebrate my Uncle's birthday. There's very little to go wrong here. It was an absolutely wonderful dining experience. Fun and casual yet sophisticated and avant garde. My favourite has to be Green Curry Chicken and the Clear Fish Soup. The techniques executed in these dishes are very enlightening on how they extract the maximum amount of flavour out of every ingredient yet keeping the whole dish balanced and refreshing.

Very good Thai fine dining. The taste was so yummy and unique. The crew Husen provided very great service to us
