Sup Poon Thai&Sushi Restaurant
About This Spot
Nestled along the gentle flow of the river in Wilkesboro, Sup Poon Thai&Sushi Restaurant greets you with an inviting warmth that feels both comforting and a little special. The moment you step inside, the soft hum of friendly chatter and the subtle, enticing aroma of rich spices make it clear this is a place where food and company come together effortlessly. It’s the kind of spot where the pace slows just enough to savor more than a meal—it's about the small, joyful moments shared over a plate.
The restaurant’s atmosphere balances a relaxed neighborhood charm with touches of thoughtful detail. Natural light filtering through the windows plays against the simple décor, while the staff’s genuine smiles create a quietly vibrant energy in the room. It’s apparent that this is a team who knows their flavors well and takes pride in sharing them, making every visit feel like arriving at a friend’s well-loved kitchen.
On any given day, the menu offers a gentle journey across Thailand’s familiar favorites blended with subtle surprises—curries that carry the warmth of home cooking and sushi rolls carefully crafted with fresh ingredients. Whether it’s the comforting embrace of a creamy red curry or the playful balance of spicy and sweet notes in a fried basil rice, the food invites you to pause and explore nuances of flavor that linger a little after the last bite.
There is a sense of generosity in the portion sizes and how dishes can be adapted with thoughtful touches, like swapping in tofu, which shows attention to the diverse preferences of guests. It’s this balance of authenticity and attentiveness that makes Sup Poon feel less like a restaurant and more like a shared table where everyone is welcome.
In the subtle details—the sincere greetings, the lively yet relaxed chatter around the room, the way each plate arrives with care—there’s an underline of warmth. It’s a local haven for those who appreciate meals made with heart and a story in every spice.

Erin the waitress is absolutely amazing ! The other wait staff was also very bubbly and kind. Erin is like the icing on the cake for this place because the food is incredible !! I have tried Thai food every restaurant in every town I’ve been to and this place has one of the, if not the best qualities and tastes of food that I have had. I almost passed over it because it is connected to the Red Roof Inn and I wrongly assumed that it may not have been of good quality. My was I wrong ! Do not pass this place over ! I got the Thai tea (of course) , chicken basil sautee , and the tom kha soup with shrimp. Tomorrow I am coming back to try the sushi that the staff raves about. I will never miss a chance to come eat here when I’m in town ! Don’t let this place go out of business due to lack of support. They are far too good!!! Amazing job, guys!

Lunch at Sup Poon Thai was absolutely delicious! The red curry and Chiang Mai khao soi stood out, both creamy, flavorful, and rich with authentic spices. Portion sizes are well designed: lunch is just right for one person, while dinner portions are generous enough for families or hearty appetites. I also loved that they easily swapped in tofu. Only tiny hiccup was a sake glass that wasn’t spotless, but everything else was spot on.

I had the chicken sautéed in cashew nut sauce and it was fantastic. The lunch portion was also enough to be satisfied. The rest of my party also enjoyed the food they ordered.

The food was fresh and delicious. Great amount of spice and flavor I enjoy the vibe of the place as well as the people that work there. I got the basil fried rice and it was automatically my favorite thing with a hint of spicy and sweetness to the dish I enjoyed it and so will you.

11/2025: I keep coming back just to try new stuff and it is all amazing! I cannot go without that Thai Iced tea when I dine in. 09/2025: This is by far the best restaurant in the county! The flavors are so perfect, the temps are always perfect, the food is received in a timely manner, and everyone is kind! There is so much to try on the menu, and I intend to try it all! 06/2025: It was an amazing experience! The redecorating of the place is beautiful, the sushi bar is bright and colorful, and each bite of food tastes like a masterpiece. We will be back!

A perfect Sunday morning, early afternoon spot, refreshing and clean atmosphere with a sophisticated decor. Service was professional and courteous. Our server Sebastian was an absolute picture perfect host for our experience. The food was expertly made and presented very quickly. Tasted delicious, I got one dish listed as mild spice and another medium, both were very tame in spice but bountiful in flavor and complexity. Absolute must visit for anyone who enjoys Thai.
