I would highly recommend this place! It's a must-visit every time I'm in Bangkok, no matter how far I stay from it. The prices are incredibly reasonable and down-to-earth. The chef always recommends the freshest ingredients of the day, and the food is incredibly delicious. It's definitely one of the most authentic Thai restaurants in Bangkok. The curry crab is unparalleled—the meat is plump and flavorful, the shell is thin and crispy, and most importantly, there's absolutely no markup. Every penny is worth it! It's located next to Khao San Road, and it's fun to stroll around the lively bar district after dinner! It's also not far from the Grand Palace area. I'm writing this review simply because I hope it stays in business forever!
Authentic street food, cooked right before your eyes. You can sit by the roadside and watch the cook prepare each dish. We had the stir fried vegetables, garlic and pepper chicken and shrimp. The food was absolutely delicious, with rich and well balanced flavors. Even the simple stir fried vegetables were packed with taste. The service was excellent too. It’s no surprise the place gets so busy.
I googled and found this restaurant, and we managed to try this evening. Very authentic Chinese Thai foods, but the mango from the mango sticky rice is not sweet at all. They have both air-conditioned and non air-conditioned.
Third time in Bangkok, the best crab curry and morning glory so far. Loved the vibe of the place and energy of the chef. Definitely recommend 🙏
The food was incredible, they use the freshest produce. You can taste the quality, authentic Thai experience. The family that ran the restaurant were very kind and accomodating. The crab and glass noodle dish was the best I’ve ever had! Would strongly recommend coming here, everything was perfect :)
